Peyton, representing the State of New Jersey, has extended to Governor Sheppard an invitation to take part in a conference to be held in Philadelphia on the 17th of September by the Governors of the thirteen original Stales, for the purpose of arranging j for the proper celebratiou of the one hundredth anniversary of the completion of the Constitution of the United States, in September 18S7. The invitation has been accented, provided no public business prevents. "We hear that Col. D. Wyatt Aiken's sufferings are unabated. His many friends in Fairfield sympathize greatly with him and would be delighted to hear of the alleviation of his pain and his speedy recovery. Many people of Winusboro, his native town, remember with gratitude how quickly with wagon loads of provisions and clothing garnered in Abbeville, lie hastened the relief of those who were Sherman's fi resz^^^fr&eric..-. There ! lives no truer lover of South Carolina ; than D. Wyatt Aiken. A correspondence which has just been made public will be of interest to our readers. Senator Camden, of West i Virginia, in a communication to Gov- ! => ' ernor Sheppard, informed him that he had the honor of presenting through j him to the people of South Carolina, j on behalf of thirty nine United States j Senators, a handsome portrait of Gen. j "Wade Hampton. The portrait is still ; in the hands of Mr. Guerry, the artist, who is a native South Caroliniau, but will be presented to South Carolina at j an early date. This testimonial will ' be received by the Governor, and in due time fit action will be taken by the General Assembly as to it? disposal. ?o?^ A leading exchange says: "Xo State in the Union, perhaps, has enjoyed whatever benefits flow from protection to a greater extent than the Stale of Pennsylvania. Possessing great natural advantages in respect of: position, soil, climate, population and j valuable mineral and other resources,! the Representatives and most of the ' newspapers of the State have asserted j for years that its prosperity in the past j and present is almost solely due to the j existence of a tariff which excludes j foreign competition and gives it a I monopoly of the American market, j and that its continued prosperity in the future is directly dependent upon : a continuance of that tariff.

At the evening meeting of the convention Michael Davitt introduced Mr. O'Brien, who, in the course of his remarks, said that the battle for Irish freedom was not yet ended. There was, in his view, a long and bitter i struggle ahead, and never in the his- j tory of the Irish race was there greater ; in niifrmnp tha:: was ef.n- ! tred now in this convention. The ! speaker, continuing in this strain, said: "We have to look to it now more than ever that you should be at our backs in the fight. If you only knew how they are straining over there for a rift in this tremendous convention to catch j a word or a sign that Parnell is no longer leader. Thank God, you have ! answered that to-day. You have sent back the denial and shown that you are j with Parnell, and to the death." At i this declaration there was a wild out-.; burst of cheering, which continued i several minutes. I A I'UOMINKNT English politician sums up the political sirua:ion in tiiat coun! try as follows : The universal feeling among responsible statesman connected with the party in power is that Ireland's proximity to England makes an independ; ent Iri-h Parliament, impossible so 1 long as England remains a sovereign i nation. A native Irish Government ; would bo a standing1 menace in time of . war- Ireland would become the basis I of operations for England's enemies. I Tlift riots in the 11 >rth of Ireland illns j trate in a small w ;y what would come i out of home rule. There is bail blood enough now between the Irish and the , I Saxons: the transfer of ail administra- ; rtive authority to the majority could j only result in widespread carnage. \ The Irish cannot or will not pay rent: | how can they be expected to pay for i the land itself? They may buy the land, but will never pay for it. No . i Tory statesman is at present prepared i : to believe that men who cannot pay j ! rent will be found able to pay ten and j ; twenty times as much. If an attempt j to sell the land to the tenants is ever j made, landlords must hold their grip I till all is paid for. This would again ruleoutan independent native Parliament. Tory statesmen sre satisfied j that the formation ot an Irr-h ministry would be followed by n split among the Xationa's, the loss of Parnell's power and anarchy. A general conference of the leaders of the free trade movement in the United States was held in New York on the 12!.h inst. The principles for which the free traders are contending may be summed up in the address, which are as follows: 1. They demand that the whole system of Federal taxation be so reconstructed and readjusted that all the j taxes which the people pay shall be received by the government without the diversion of any part for the fostering of p.iivate interests. > Thnr. thn ni'nmntirm and irne nro- ! tection of domestic industry is to be found in the removal of all taxes from articles which constitute the foundation, or arc necessary to the procscssess of our various industries; and that the incidence of taxation be restricted as far as possible to articles which are ready for final consumption, and of j which the use is voluntary, rather than j necessary. 3. They claim that the abandonment of the present high, discriminating and unnecessary tariff taxes, and the levy of national revenue on a comparatively few article?, on whicii taxes can be j collected with the least interference j with the freely chosen pursuits of the | people, are the necessary steps to j gradually ensure to the country full industrial employment and high wages, abundant production and low cost, extended markets and a permanent revival of comme.ciai activity. In his address at the unveiling of | the DeKalb monument, at Annapolis,! on last Monday, Secretary Bayard j aid: There are those who tell us to-day j that political parties arc essential for : our Government, ami that parties can- j not be worked ami incited to enthusi- i astic action except by the line of per- ; personal ambition and the spoils ofj place, patronage and profit; that such j emoluments are essential stimulants to ; public duty, and that without them ne-! cessary party organization cannot be j accomplished. If this be true I should I despair of the llepnbiic, for then De- i Ivalb fell in vain and this statue lias ; little value or meaning. But it is not | of to-day. It speaks in denial of all j this, and if we but heed iis utterances j [they wilt v^vivp. iiwaj-i-- il?f icn- ' inan au^ | tree, virtuous and happy "Republic. I deny that the necessary j forces are those most reliable fof the} safety of society. Xo nation that accepts such doctrine can have any but a downward career. There is, and always has been, a patriotic military j service 111 this country in which dan- I rrnt' j:; mIiyi'i- lirirofirtn nndcr. ! gone, and blcod freely poured out, and equally is there a patriotic civil service in which toil and anxious care are faithfully bestowed for the preservation of the peace and honor and profit of the nation. Woe be unto us and our children when a belief and reliance in such things shall pass away, and statues like this shall speak in vain. To-day we stand a mighty power in the family of nations, calmly conscious of our strength and mindful* of our responsibilities. When DcKalb came to us a century ago how scant a handful of struggling colonists were our fathers! How great and lasting then is our debt to those 'friends in need who were friends indeed!' Carefully should we cherish, those generous memories of ancestral valor and realize j that the best safeguards of a nation lie ! not in the glittering combination of mercenary forces, but in the number j of true-near ted men who serve their eountry because ihey !ove it. General 3Ia:iisanlt 5>oatI. A special telegram to tiie JSrews and Courier, on the 17th inst. announced the death of Gen. A. M. Manigault, which occurred at South Island, 011 the evening before. The news of his death was unexpected to the people of the State, and ill be received everywhere with feelings of sincere regret, lie had not been in good health for some time, bin none su=pocted that the end was so near. Gen. Manigault was born in the city of Charleston in 1824, and was consequently sixty-two years of age. At the i commencement of the Mexican war lie ! entered a volunteer company of the | Palmetto Regiment, and was with it in all the battles in which it was engaged. At the breaking out of the civil war he threw in his lot with others of his native State and entered the contest. lie was elected colonel ol the 10th regiment. Tnroughont the entire war he served with marked ability, and was twice wounded. In 1880 lie was nominated by the State Convention for Adjutant and Inspector General, and was elected. In 1882 lie was re-nominated awl elected, and in 1884 the people were satisfied with his management of the office, and re-elected him to serve a third term. At the last State Convention he was again nominated over his opponents to till the high position which he had occupied i for six years with so much honor and j dignity. In his death the State has i lost an able citizen, and the military a faithfui friend. The hero of two wars, he will ever be remembered by the people of the State he loved so well.

Editors: When through want of forethought we sutler I suppose we should bear the consequences patiently; but it is hard to keep silent. ; Wc knw nothing of the views of the candidates until they come through the j couniry speaking. If the citizen is to hare any liberty of choice?any chance j to vote for the man that represents his i views?the canvass should take place j long enough before the election to \ allow lime for new men to be brought ; out when it is found that not enough | of ihose already out suit us in their views. I, and I suppose others, never suspected that of the candidates out there wouldn't be a sufficient number favoring free tuition in the South Carolina College. Indeed, if we could judge by the record of our Representatives, I know that one of them favored free tuition. No wish for a change in the present management of the College has been manifested in this county. Could we then have expected a trap to be sprung upon us ' and a delegation sent back opposed to tuition without the issue ever being made and the voice of the people ever being heard? It is not certain that a majority of the people of Fairfield are n favor of a charge for tuition at the College; and I am satisfied that if the question was fully discussed before them they would with an overwhelming majority pronounce in favor of free tuition. Is Fairfield to be forced to vote against free tuition? Is she to adjust her will to the views of her candidates simply because not enough of them represent her will? Some time ago a gentleman said to me that he would vote for no one that was not in favor of free tuition. He can vote for no one, then, but Mr. Buchanan; but if lis wants this vote counted he will have to vote lor two others who do not represent his views. But it is useless to lament; though 1 cannot but be greatly disturbed to think ol such an important principle frr?f> tuition hfMiicr dfto'itwl wiflmnf a struggle, stolen upon as it were in the da i and captured while sleeping peacefully among friends in unsuspecting security. Whether or not in lime to do any good at this election, I cannot resist the impulse to remind the people or the county of some of the reasons why they should cling to free tuition with a devoted tenacity. 1 have uo one to be benefitted by free tuition, and if ever man were actuated only by concern for the welfare of his State, I believe I am when I feel so interested in free tuition. I know that many friends of the College wish tuition charged; but, in my esteem, of all that entitles the College to our affection and support, free tuition stands first. I would that Iliad space to'discuss the subject more fully than I shall, but 1 can only give some of my main reasons. We all appreciate the importance of education. We know that it is this j that makes all the difference between ; intelligence and ignorance, civilization | and barbarism, morality and depravity, prosperity and poverty, happiness riM<l inii^rv Awl if ir siif.h :l difl'erenco between a nation where no one is educated and one where only a few have the highest education, ho'y> much more prosperous and happy would that nation be where the ui;ij.n*_ ity are highly educated! If educUjun is a blessing we want as rnair. m31l ediu-atf^ as" possible. The m(',;a in. telligence in the country the mor? prosperous will the country be, and that even those that do not directly share in the advantanges of education are greatly benefitted by them. If then a State is simply a number of men organized into a society to promote by united means the welfare of the whole, is there anything so much in ihe province of a State's duty as education? Certainly tn?;re is nothing else like education which in its ctlecrs so unites all of the ends of government. For ignorance is the parent of vice and poverty and is the one enemy to the general welfare. All, however, may admit the heed of intelligence; but docs a common school education for our people bring that prosperity, or the result of intelligence, which a college education would bring? Now, if a high education is so important, must it be limited to those that have the private means to get it? If the State does not endeavor to facilitate the means of education, 'now I- ~ ( ,1.TJ !,? is miu UUliig iiui uui\ . iiu>v ait; uiu people thai have united to promote by concerted action their individual welfare fulfilling1 the ends for which they formed themselves into a State? Is it not clearly the duty of a State, it is 1 not the noblest work, tlie grandest privilege of a State to bring the most liberal education within the reach of her ccitizens? And if the State for some time neglected her duty so that ; education had to be bought a certain price from private enterprizes, have these private institutions acquired exclusive right to the business of education? Must the State forever afterwards be debarred from making education cheaper because it, will lessen the incomes of these institutions? Are 1 men made for institutions? Is the survival of any institution more imnortant. than the education of the masses? If at a cost hardlv felt' by j any individual the State can support a j great college and allow unparalleled ! : opportunities to her young men for i obtaining educations, has any institu- j tion such a prestige that for its sake j education must be kept at a monopoly : : price and thus withheld from thous- |: ands of young men whose means will | not permit then to buy it at the de-' nominatiol college rate? It is absurd j to say that forty or fifty dollars' tui-1 tion makes it no harder for a boy to get an education. Fifty dollars is a ; large sum to a farmer; and he might; be able to board his boy at college, j < and vet*be unable to send him for the j want of fifty Collars more for tuition, i But our would-be Representatives,: following the suggestion of the de-; nominatiOHal colleges, tavor a charge for tuition to those only who are able j to pay and free tuition to those that j need it. Laying aside all objections i to the principle of making a distinc-1 tion between citizens on account of: means, I submit to any intelligent ! man that it is utterly impracticable to j1 draw a line between those that are j unable to pay and those that are not. j That's an objection to the (Jitadcl. J Can the scholarship be given to real | poor boys even generally? The return on the auditor's books can't show ; whether a boy's parents are able to , send him to college. A boy's father j or mother may be afflicted with a great deal of land on which to pay Targe taxes but from which to get little monep. A mail that has no visible property and pays little taxes may have plenty of money but be allowed to send his son as a beneficiary to the Citadel, and, according to the plan of, our candidates, te the South Carolina College over a poor farmers boy. Moreover, when competitive examinations are stood the boy that needs the scholarship most is poor and has had few advantages; he cannot stand first on the examination and is left out, yet he may be sufficiently advanced to j have entered the College. Let us not j have the name of trying to educatc i the poor when we know it is but in ! name. Why then do our Rep resent a- I tives propose to abolish the present | system by which education is put as ; near the poor boy's grasp as possible j and establish in its place one that will j be perfect farce? Let the demonina- j tions support their colleges if they j wish. If these colleges are so much | desired there should be no fear ot j competition. Arc there not enough j members of the denomination that will J prefer to pay tuition for their sons at I their college? If not, then it is false! that the people composing the denomi- i nations wish free tuiiion abolished, j It <o, then it is tiilse that free tuition ! can injure the denominational colleges. I feel that I must close, but one word more about this absurd talk of competition between colleges. Is not the object of all colleges to elevate hnmnnirvV And is it love for human iiy for one that can feed but the hundreds to be unwilling to give place to another that can feed the hungry thousands? Love for ray State and the belief that free tuition in her college is. that which will educate her farmers' sons, elevate her people and make her prosperous, cause me to feel anxious for the maintenance of free tuition With me it is a great principle, and I would vote for no one that did not favor it. Would only that a thousand others felt as I do! FARMKR JOHN*. THE I'JtlSTARY ELJECTIOX. The Regulations A<loi>te<l by the Democratic Executive Committee. 1.
