I . THE SOl'TH CAROLINA COLLKGK. i A Denial of the Charge that the Trustees j are "Wasting the >'arii?er>" Money. As a good many erroneous statements have been recently made re- j garding the agricultural department , of the Souiii Carolina College, I ask t permission to give some idea of its , 1 At.. r,.,. c scope ami us wum. . iwwu iv. ^ doing" so is the absence from the State ; of others better qualified than myself j for the task. I ' shall speak only of , what has been done, since the work of j the past has been alleged as proof of, , failure in the future. Since 1S82 there have been the fol- . lowing scientific chairs in the College: \ 1. Agriculture and Botany, under ; President McBride, whose work as a j scientific experimentalist has attracted ' attention in Kurope as well as in , America. _. Geology, Physiology, Zoology, , etc., under Professor Wood row, who Las few equals as a scientist in the country. Mathematics, pure and applied, under Professor Sloan, a distinguished graduate of West Point and a most; thorough instructor. 4. Chemistry, Mineralogy, etc., under Professor Burney, a Ph. 1). of Heidelberg, under Bunsen, a student of Paris, under Wurtz, and a fellow of Johns Hopkins. These gentlemen are competent to give instruction of the most thorough kind. (Hereafter there will be two more professors, Dr. Longhridge in. agriculture, a:;d ilingilieer McElroy, of the United States Xavy, who has equipped a school of ; practical mechanics, including lathe-i work, planing, wood-work, iron-work, etc.) There are in the entire College five ; four-year courses and as many two- ; year courses. In each of these chem- j a- .>nr1 Phrciftlnnri' IMn j uutain j piiv auu x uj oxviv^; have been taught, while geology and astronomy also enter into the longer j courses. In three long courses and ! three short courses the study of agriculture is compulsory for one year,; while in the technical agricultural i course it is compulsory for two years, and agricultural chemistry for one more. In most of the Agricultural Colleges agriculture is taught one year; in the ^Mi^issippi College one year and j a third. The South Carolina College i therefore is more complete in this re- j spect than many others. Sinco the reorganization of the College in 188 2 an average of forty-three students a year have pursued the years coiuau in a^ii^uiniJL . What docs the study of agriculture proper include? During the lirst year t'he following- topics are discussed: Soils, organic and inorganic manures, I grasses and clovers, meadows and pastures, crops, rota'ion of crops, weeds j noxious and innocuous, improvement of soils, farm implements ard machinery, farm roads and buildings, domes- j tic animals, ctc. Second year?the students having been drilled in theoreti-; uai tucuimi. ait i/i.u iwv. * # tory for work. Lectures are giver: on the chemical constituents of manures, ' theory of the action of manures and best methods of application, classification and improvement of soils, principles of breeding stock and feeding, laws of plant life and growth, analysis of soil?, fertilizers, etc. The following are specimens of the : kinds of practice problems that have been given out to the class from time to time: 1. "At the present cost per ton of dried blood, cotton seed meal, siable manure, nitrate of soda, etc., nnd which is cheapest in proportion to the amount of nitrogen-supplied." 2. "Given the market value of nitrogen, phosphoric acid, etc., analyse; fertilizer, and determine its i market price per ton." o. Two years ago when Fur mail's , formula was published the class was required to calculate the market value of a ton of his compost. -i. A company having offered to exchange 1,000 pounds"of cotton seed meal for one tou of seed, the class made a comparison of values aiul j found that the offer was advantageous, i 5. Another published offer was to 1 give tons of acid phosphate, 2 tons . of cotton seed meal and 1 ton of kainit: for 12 tons of cotton seed. Calcuia-! tion showed that under the first tabic oi values used in South Carolina the offer was not advantageous, but that under the table now ruling 111 this j State the farmer would gain by the; * exchange. 6. "In what proportions must cot-; ton seed meal, peavinesand o?ts straw j be fed together to a fattening ox to . secure most economical results?" Such problems as the last are based | on tables tested for thirty years in I Germany, showing the relative amounts of albuminoids, fats and carboby* k drates required to keep live stock at rest, or at work, or latteniug. The full course of chemistry lasts four years, and includes quantitative analysis of soils, fertilizers, etc. A j student has stepped from the labora-: torv right into a good position in the i office of a leading chemist in Charles-1 ion. Others have made analyses for j fertilizer companies and received pay j for them. This is an evidence of good \ work. ic much jn tllP i South, bui, in the College it is made; practical. During the latter part of the course, the student is required to ! analvse and name unknown plants and weeds. Some students have made several hundred analyses each, and are ; good practical botanists. The analysis ot seeds is also required. So many seeds are adulterated nowa days that it is very important to test the purity of the sample in order to ; know ho-,v much to plant to the acre. ! But I cannot elaborate further. Besides class room work President 1 McBryde has conducted on an average one hundred and fifty experiments a year in cotton, grains, grasses, &c. ! Much material has been accumulated,1 but in order to secure accuracy, he has preferred to wait for the results of three years continued experiments in * duplicate, changing the plots each 1 * year to get rid of any effect from dif-j * i*efence in soil, &c. In cotton, for instance, every plot is 1 measured mathematically?two plots j are given to each kind of seed. The ! number of plants are "counted, allowance is made for missing hills, the av- \ 1 erage is then corrected ami compared 1 for several year?, and the general av- : erage is thus =ecured. j < I will merely mention that a three ' years' series oi' experiments in cotton shows that one well-known brand has iiuiiormly showed a superior yield of lint, averaging about forty pounds of 1 Jint for every fifteen hundred pounds j of seed. On a crop of six hundred thousand bales in this State this would : make a gain of forty-eight thousand ; bales over the yield of other seed, which, at aine cents, would give an i t increased value of two million dollars ; \ a year to the cottoi; product of the s State. j c The above is some of the work Presi- J s dent McBryde has been doing, al- j 1 though not a cent has been given to r him for experimentation, lie has to ; v ekaout a small sum by reducing other: ^ expenses. He has been making bricks 11 and supplying ln> own straw. \ S: ^ Last year, despite the drought, the 0 farm averaged nearly a bale to the acre. The Legislature, last year, refused cj > -??^ to give >L'.wv> to equip tnc expeninen- j. f tallann. Give President McBryde a <j few thousand dollars and he will ac- n complish results that will attract wide- i c spread attention, and greatly improve rl farming. j f< Some of the most caption? critics ofic . he agricultural department of the Col- , ege are those who have persistently 1 j legleeted or refused to accept invita-: ions to inspect its work. When the Farmers" Convention met n Columbia in April the president of i he College extended an invitation to i:e meruDti's to visit me msunuion ' :iid farm and see the work. The plats verc all labeled, Persons were on 1 iand to" answer all questions. Ye'.. so *ar as 1 can learn, no one who dejounced the College took the trouble ,o walk half a miie to satisfy himself bat bis charge was just. I say it not in spirit of boasting, but; is merely a fact, that I know of no op- 1 ponent of the College who speaks from ; personal observation, nor do 1 know my one who, having made an exami- j nation, has failed to mention it in . terms of commendation. In a few weeks the College will be open. I know that President Mclirydcr will be most happy to welcome every | visitor, and more especially a com- j mutec 01 inspection, appoimeu uy uic Farmers' Associations. I I hope such a committee will come and sec whether the trustees have so ; used the "farmers'money as to de- i feat its objects. Certainly candid and : just men will not censure without i knowledge.

BISMARCK PROPOSES TO CRIPPLE EXU- j LAXI) IX THE EAST, And Prevent a French War of Revenue on Germany?The Ejection of the British from Ejcypt aPart of the Plan?Parneli'M Friends Aroused ; l>y Irish Evictions. Special Cab'e Dispatch to the X. Y. Star. j London. September 28;?Mr. Paroell's , letter to -Mr. ritzgorald. rrcsident of the league in America, is hotly assailed by some of the leading -government organs. , The main Tory argument is that evictions are not gi-ncral and are diminishing. The Parnellites are charged with trumping up imaginary eases of eviction and representing a state of affairs that has no foundation in fact. The landlords, on th?- other hand. : are held up to public admiration as lenient and forbearing under circumstances of extreme provocation. They are described as reduced to the verge of ruin by the refusal of their tenants to pay the rents justly due. Finally, tiie statement that evictions, instead of being general, are rapidly diminishing. is capped by the bold assertion that it would be next to" impossible for Mr. Parnell to point out in these 'days.a really harsh eviction. A singular illustration of the value of taese aeciaraiious is iunusucci m me columns of the Standard itself, the most influential Tory daily in the kingdom. Here we find a matter of fact report of a case of eviction, which for cold-blooded cruelty it would be difficult to beat. In the instance referred to, one of the members of the family to be evicted was a dying woman. The knowledge that she was at the roint of death had no weight with the evictors. The scene that ensued caused keen distress among the onlookers, who were powerless to interfere without brinirinir on themselves serious consequences. There have been man} well authenticated cases of eviction of persons whose removal was almost certain death; but the Tory papers ignore them in their attacks on the case made? out by the Parnellites. A reference to the latest published returns of the Irish land cpmmission falls to bear out the assertions of thexhampions of eviction, and fully sustains the allegations of the Parnellites. A reduction of the number of evictions is shown in certain localities, but over the whole country the number is increased. I he lories appear to nave taken tiie solitary cases of reduction and applied them to the country at large. The Liberal press generally, except t!ie extreme Unionist press, favorably notice Mr. Parncll's letter. Imports current to-night at the clubs point to an extraordinary attempt on the part of Bismarck to cripple British influence in the present crisis in European affairs, and ibe centcr of interest again shifts frnm RiiIoniho to Kovnt Rismnrflr -rcitli the view of inducing France to enter into a friendly understanding witli Germany, and abandon her schemesof a "war of revenge," has undertaken, according to the reports mentioned, to direct the attention of French statesmen to a scheme of foreign conquest, the main object of which isrt.be ejection of the British from Egypt, and the annexation of that country to the French empire. Bismarck's Journal a Almce openly advises the French to prepare for a campaign to drive the English out of Egypt and seize the short cut to India. An emissary sent by Bismarck to Paris has beeu preaching the same doctrine to M. de Freycinet,*with whom he had three interviews before he returned to Germany. The Debut# frankly adopts the suggestion, and judging from French susceptibility on the Egyptian tli/? cr^rl ic c\vt-. in frmtfnl In the meantime. Sir Drumniond Woltf, working hard against French and Turkish intrigues, lias unquestionably improved the English position at Cairo. Russia is also suspected of playing into the hands of France, in order to divert English attention from Bulgaria. Matters in the Balkans are unchanged. A sharp contest is going on between the Ivambars party and" the regency, and in ; spite of reports of seeming weakening of the Alexander party the latter, backcd by Englauu. have not yet yielded on any materia! point to tlui Russian representative. : Thomas Powkk O'Cox^ok. 31.

September :Jii.?A ter-1 ritic explosion occurred at the Ditmar ; lewder Works itt Bayeliester, on the Harlem river branch of the New York and New JIaven railroad, about 1<) o'ciook this morning, resulting in the instant deatli of four men employed in the factory. The explosion occurred in the packing house, a Dne-story frame building 20x30 feet, in the center of the grounds and about two hundred yards from the main factory, a large building near the water, when- the bulk of ; the giant powder and nitro-glyeerine used : in the acqucduct works is manufactured, i ' . i i lie men were nam at worK pumng up and packing cartridges, when suddenly an explosion occurred. Shattering the building to splinters and blowing four men to fragments. Tiie exploding powder, of which there was a large quantity, shot up in the j air to a height of fifty feet, and the splinters j of the building were blown a mile away. The names of the victims were Ernest | Draleu, John Rusch, Max Sliafbolt and Reinhart. Nothing was left of them except fragments of their bodies. Hands, feet, legs, arms, pieces of skulls, backbones and charred bits of flesh were scattered in every direction from 300 to"000 feet from the packing house Max Crager, foreman of the works, says the explosion was caused by two men shooting into ilie building. He was in the packing house, and on going out saw two men who said they were shooting at squirrels. ' He says he threatened them with arrest, i and they became impudent. Astliecxplo j sion occurred the men were seen hurrying ; away. It. H. Sfa.asSeld, Superintendent of the Tiieorite Powder Company near by, picked up a box full of fragments of the de:id men.

Their I clothing was burned lo shreds. The main factor}- of the Ditmar works was nearly wrecked, one of the buildings being blown to pieces, exposing the interior. After the explosion the lower timbers of the building took fire and burned fiercely. A large tree near by was torn up by the roots, and a number of other trees were blown away. The ground for half a mile was strewn with fragments of the dead, splinters, packing paper, ?fcc. The violence of the explosion shook houses in Bartow, across the creek from Baychester. Many windows in John Elliot's Bay View Hotel at Pelham bridge, over a mile away, were shattered. Thus. Dinwoo-lie's blacksmith shop at Westchester was shaken violently, and windows in many nouses in tne same village were broken. This is the second explosion that has occurred in these works this year. 1 A Fiendish Wire Hires Three Negroes to Murder Her Husband. Raleigh. X. C., September 20.? Last Thurday niglit the store of A. I). Owens, ' at Cresswelh Martin county, was entered by burglars. Owens's dwelling adjoins i the store. He heard a noise, and as ho ! stepped to the door he saw two burglars, i one of whom raised a gun and fired. Forty : buckshct entered the stomach of Owens, who in a few moments was a corpse. Since ; that time the authorities have been on the i track of tiie murderers. Monday ni^ht ; biienit sprewiu arnvea at jriymomn wun the wife of the murdered man and two negroes Another negro, James Davenport, (dins Ambrose, was shot and killed. One of the negroes made a confession some . days ago as follows: That Mrs. Owens had hind them to kill her husband. She wished them to drown him, and prepared water in a barrel for that purpose. She gave him medicine to put him in a sound i sleep, and three negroes actually stood by his bedside ready to commit the crime, but , their courage failed them. Finally, Am brose, some nights afterwards, entered the store, and when Owens appeared he shot . hin?. Ambrose was pursued, and on making a desperate attempt to kill members of the Sheriff's posse was shot through the ; heart. Mrs. Owens and the two negroes ! are now in jail at Plvmouth to await their i trial. . The Anderson Wife Murderer. Jap.

Ilis victim was buried on Sunday from : Pisgah church. She was the daughter of Alexander Moore, a worthy and substantial farmer, and leaves five children, the eldest, a daughter, being fifteen years old. At ! the time she was shot she was walking | with her daughter and a son, one of them 1 a short distance before her, the other fol ! lowing behind. The gun used by Davis was loaded with eight penny nail-, and shot and the load took terrible effect, both the I unfortunate woman's eyes beimj shot out. Davis has been living on 3I;-s.
