They hare albums of hair, each gentleman friend ! Wff contributing a lock. J Gladstone lias evidently taken a ' new lease of life. In fact, he looks younger, brighter and more hopeful than he has for years past. Secretary Exdicott, it Is said, ha s nnifr* recovered his spirits since he re 1 turned to the State where his Mayflower ancestors once flourished. Ex-Sexatok William Mahoxe accuses Gov. Fitz Hugh Lee of "frivolous levity" in attending the theater and acting as judge in a horse race. Tydia Thompson is to make her reappearance in London this month at the Strand Theater. Violet Cameron will be one of the attractions of the company. Fleuko-pxeumoxia is killing off the Western cattle by scores; but, at last accounts, General Tutile was talking as cheerfully as though he had something to say. Henry Geouge preaches that men cannot own land because they did not make it. That theory, it is said, reKpvas florae of a fearful resDonsibili ty as to the ownership of his head. The following civil service problem was found on the reporter's desk in one of the rooms ot the Treasury Department : "If a horse is sixteen hands high aiid oats sixty cents per "?~ bushel, how old is Mr. L;rman?" Sixes the recent little flurry in Wall street, in which it is said C. ~SV. Field lost a few millions that Gould picked un. Cvrus has become quite a jockey and in his dreams talks of horses, especially repeating the name of Jay-Isee. An Ohio girl advertises that she would like to exchange a copy of George Eliot's "Theophrastas Such" for two loaves of fresh baker's bread or ten cents' worth of chewing gum. AEtu mai isn't uiu wu;st vx jus finds no takers. Ex-Marshal^LociT"F. Payne complains that Governor Hill has done him a great injustice in attacking him after he has retired from pnbJic life. Mr. Payne thinks that the Governor should instead go gunning for the Republicans iu active service. The Prince of Wales and Mr. Blaine are both at Homburg taking the cure.

The resolutions of the Prohibition / - State convention are in marked contrast to those of the body that nominated Henry George. There is no compromise or ambiguity about them. They strike out straight from the shoulder for the faith their authors profess. A TV < cnrvATrtv n?nw sn.rs f hat I r dCUi4tVIXV?l V??J w . ""Worth is building sumptaous gowns for Mrs. Cleveland's next Washington season." This is not exactly in the line of?but Mrs. Cleveland is a great deal prettier than Jefferson ever was, and who cares for Jeffersonian simplicity, any way? " Michael Davitt's declaration in his speech at Bray that "eviction is the only crime prevalent in Ireland" is not merely an apt saying. It crystallizes an important truth. "Were it not for the proceedings growing out of evictions the Irish courts would have nest to nothing to do. If Prohibitionists persist in putting tickets in the field regularly, and the Labor men continue to spit up as they ho rirtno in tho nncf fr>TO- month?- thfi United States three or four years hence will have about as extensive and variegated a collection of political parties as either France or Germany has. We welcome among our exchanges The Carolinian, the first issue of which appeared on Sept 3. It i? a K.I/vkt nanrstr elirvnf nrinfori in rrnorl KSLA^liiy i'O > > OCllVVVf Jk/4AMVVVt ? QWM style, and is a highly attractive sheet. It is printed at Greenville, ~s S. C., every Saturday, by J. R. Shannon, editor and proprietor. We wish it success. One of the things which prohibition prohibits is the financial welfare of a State. The Rhode Island Treasury is $250,000 short, owin^ to the suppres^ sion of liquor license fees, and there are no available funds with which to pay* the State police. Meanwhile it is not popularly believed that much less liquor than formerly is consumed in "Little Ehodv." Governor Foraker?s career bids fair to be a striking exemplification of the o*J adagfe that if yon let a fool or . a scoaudrel alone he is bound to hang himself sooner or later, lie first achieved national notoriety by posing as a patriot, and he has never bobbed np since then without nauseating his it.,, nearers wiui a uusu ui mu wwu\ wu l i or the rebel flags. A protection* organ, explaining the ! great immigration from Germany, at- j tributes it largely to "the fast increas-1 ing stagnation of trade and industries i throughont the empire." If all that I the papers claim for the tariff be trne, j there should, as the Chicago Times j suggests, be no stagnation of trade ? and industries in a country that has i oil farifFif r?ir> nnssiblv "want. "Protectionists have done service to humanity by insisting upon the fact that we pay to la'x>r the highest wages in the world. WInle debate has been going on whether our high wages J were because of taxation or despite \ taxation, economists have discovered j and demonstrated the corelativc fact that labor cost in our products is the | least in the world."?Daniel Manning. A paragraph is going the rounds that nearly all the women of the Salvation Army have a heart worked in India ink upon the right shoulder. In case any one or tnem is tasen sich. vl dies away from home, or in a foreign country, the sign of the heart will entitle her to care or a suitable burial at the expense of the organization, no matter whether she is or is not in good standing. Xot succeeding in his scheme to ' distribute the surplus of the Unite .1 States, Mr. "Wharton Darker is about to absorb some of the superfluous wealth of China in exchange for American skill and energy in establishing telegraph and telephone lines and banks in the Celestial empire. The proprietor oi me ^uuarccuu yi w to foreign investments and has been lucky in them. The Socialits propose to form a new organization to fight the George men, and this, it is said will be known as the Anti-Robbery Society. Whether this name is the Russian idea of a joke, as interpreted by Editor Shevitch, is not clear, but there is no ambiguity about their principles. They will denounce the ownership of any means of j ? rr.;i) prUUUCUUil il5 biUJyiC iVUU?; ) ami ?? demand that the wage system shall go. Now that the government majority has dwindled to seventy-eight, and all signs point to a return to power of the Gladstone-Parnell alliance, attention is again directed to the question of an Irish Parliament. A great deal of discussion may be looked for during the next few months as to what is the best form of such a body, for a Gladstone victory means home rule, and home rule almost certainly implies a Dublin Parliament sooner or later, " ffo (->! criKsf ifn t PS WliillUV Ci uiarwcouiiio ? . may intervenfi. Boueke Cockkax has teen over; whelmed with congratulations on the success of his eloquent plea for Jake Sharp. The.Congressman is an iinpos" I ing figure when he gets up to speak. He has a good voice, is tall and portly, ! and is always well dressed, but he has j a trick, it is said, that often spoils the impressive whole. Just when you are charmed by his bearing and oratory he will throw back his coat and run I his hands into his trousers pockets in i a way that is as erasperanng as it is undignified. TnE death of Gen. Phil. Kearney at i Fredericksburg" ha? always been shrouded in mystery. He was killed instantly, but the circumstances which led to his death have hitherto been kept very qaiet. Gen. Pierce Young, of Georgia, has just returned from St. Petersbug, where he was United | States Consul-General. IIo was a Confederate officer during the war, and says that at Fredericksburg he and his command unexpectedly surroundi ed Kearney and his staff. Young, who had been a classmate and a friend of Kearney, motioned to the Union Geueral to escape. Kearney saw the signal, but before he could take advantage of it was shot dead by the rebel troops. It seems that the Prince of little Bui garia is not to be snuffed out so | easily as his enemies would wish. It is said that Italy will stand by him, backed by Austria and England. lie is enthusiastically received by the Bulgarians, including their army, which he has succeeded in mustering together to the number of 3,000. While the sovereignty of this principality is comparatively small, the question Bulgaria represents is quite large enough to serve time aud time again a bone of contention for the great powers, and it may once more and at no distant day prove to be the cause of a mighty war. Whenever either of the great alliances wants a war Bulgaria will be at hand as the excuse for the conflict. The Irish Nationalists have selected two of the most distinguished of their number to visit the United States and further explain their cause and prosi rwt<5 to thf> American people. Mr. I Arthur O'Connor, Member of Parlia( ment for East Donegal, was for many years in the British "War Office, and has acquired great distinction as a statistical and political authority. Sir Thomas Grattan Esmoade is on the maternal side of a descendant of the great Henry G rat tan. He is gifted with the eloquence of his line, and is regarded as one of the most brilliant of the younger Irish politicians. The mass meetings under the auspices of the American branches of the league addressed by those gifted missionaries will, beyond doubt, be highly interesting and influential. Mn. George keeps standing in the Standard an extract from the preface to his book on "Protection or Free Trade?" which book he originally published, week by week, in the Star. In the preface he says: While pointing out the falsity of the belief that tariffs can protect labor, I have not failed to recognize the facts which give the belief vitality, and, by an examination of these facts, have shown not only how little the working classes can hope from that mere "revenue reform" which is miscalled "free trade," but how much they have to " J?- T> ? il | hope trom real iree iraue. x>y mus harmonizing the truths which freetraders perceive with the facts that to protectionists make their own theory plausible, I believe I have opened ground upon which those separated by seemingly irreconcilable differences of opinion may unite for that full application of the free trade principle which would secure both the largest production and the fairest distribution of wealth.

" * Mr JosEPn Chamberlain, who is i i soon to visit this country as the Brit- i tish Plenipotentiary for the settlement ! of the "Canadian fisheries dispute/' is ; probably the most prominent of the j advanced Liberals iu the British Par- ; liament?in fact Mr. Chamberlain is a Republican, and holds to Mr. JLincoms famous maxim, "a government of the people, for the people, by the people." He is called in England a Radical, and his politics are looked upon by all true ; Conservatives as of the dangerous sort. ! lie is a statesman who holds in reserve ' many drastic reforms. Among them j may be instanced the abolition of the I House of Lords, that proud and veil-j erable institution that served in the past many noble purposes. Mr. Chamberlain is more than friendly to Ameri ca, ana nis selection uy uisgutuinumi-1 as its representative on this occasion: 1 ! ensures the prompt and satisfactory ; settlement of the dispute.

Wc expected the law to be evaded, but we never thought that even a railroad company would assume an attitude of open defiance, and yet this seems to be just what has happened.

There arc other remedies, too, within the easy reach of the Legislature which it is unneces! sarv now to recount. The issue has arisen and it must be settled, and what the country wants is a prompt and immediate settlement. ii a, o A Cosae I>ow?. nf I AC me recent larmwis uiwuug ?? Anderson Mr. B. R. Tillman could find nothing to talk about but the lawyers. Of the G14 in the State he wondered how many of them made a livingj and said that "some of them sat around the court-house and reported for newspapers at $1.50 and 83.00 a column." The correspondent said that Mr. Tillman was "pressed for time" and was "scattering." lie was "pressed" for ideas. Some people wont call a spade a spade. For Mr. Tillman's benefit it may be stated that a number of the Gl-i lawyers make more money in one year, and make it honestly, too, than he has seen since he has been trying to boss the politics of this State. This may not be a very gratifying piece 01 iniorniauou i to Mr. Tillman, but we cani help that, we are not responsible for the meas-1 ure of other people's success. A little more than a year ago Mr. Tillman was busily engaged trying to make a Govi ernor of the State. Now?well, he has come down to the homely task of abusing a class of men vho seem scornfully indifferent to his attitude, and properly so. If Mr. Tillman expects to do anything as a reformer, he must find something to talk about of more interest to the public than the private earnings of the members of the bar. Unconvinced. Our contemporary, the Hornet, illustrates the old aphorism, "a man convinced against his will, <fcc.?' The Ilornel, like its namesake, makes always an admirable and very plucky fight. It defends the "tariff plunder' with a zeal and ability that I is altogether worthy of a hotter cause. TirU/-^ nnn^KAnfarl reilJi nnjinswfira. ble argument against the narrow dogmas of its economic faith, (he Hornet comcs promptly forward and still denies its force with a courage that half redeems a sinking cause. It claims, too, with evident sincerity, a moral purpose for the ''tariff plunder.'*' We had supposed that this position had been abandoned by all modern protectionists; we had thought that the defenders of the system had flu unmoral purposes to the wind and entrenched themselves in the citadel of nationalism, but the Ilornet insists that the benevolence of its creed rf-.ir.lies "the half-naid toiler of the field who has nothing in common with factors." Wc arc sorry that the vision of our contemporary is obscurcd. The issue between free trade and protection involves the question whether men shall enjoy equal rights on this continent; it is a question of liberty, and another struggle has commenced in which "we shall nobly save or meanly lose, the lasj best hope of earth." Cotton at the South. ) Reports both from government and private sources indicate a slight falling off in this year's cotton crop as against the figures of 183G-S7. It will perhaps be less than present estimates. Cotton has a way of looking badly at this time, as a result of the midsummer droughts, but* it nearly always ; freshens up unaertne impulse 01 warm rains and hot suns in early September, so that the "top crop" bolls fill out while the farmers are gathering the bottom and middle crops. The total yield will, in all probability, exceed six millions of bales, aggregating beo^vA nnn nnn nnn ori0 C?yv,w* -VU,VVV,VVV vvvjvvvjww pounds of lint cotton and about G00,000,000 of seed. Since our Southern friends have put S3 vast an acreage into cotton?for a crop of this size i*epresents a planted area of 24,000,000 or more of acres? we trust their expectations may be realized. There is little enough profit in planting cotton at best, and those who devote their time and energies to that pursuit can ill afford to lose even .?v n._i. me smallest irauuuu tu uiu pvsojuiv; recompeasc:?-WirximlacI to believe, therefore, that the prescm*^itlook is favorable, and that the cotton grSVSy**, will realize practically all that they had a right to expect. But how much better it wonlcl be for the South if at least one-half of the tremendous area now monopolized by cotton were diverted to other agricultural uses! How much better if the Southern farmer would set about raising his own supplies, his own meat and bread, fruits, dairy and garden products, thus making himself thoroughly independent as regards the necessities of life and using cotton merely as a surplus article! Under such a policy the South would soon grow rich and prosperous and populous, i immeasurably beyond any possibility of the existing system.?JVcfC York Star. The <*raiul Army's Danger. The now 3 that a number of Grand Army posts when they marched under a portrait of President Cleveland at Wheeling on i-'riday trailed their flags in the dust and made threats tfcat they would tear the banner down, ought not to cau>e any particular surprise. There have been too many evidences of lain that this organization, which started with .such a noble aim and purpose, has fallen into the power of men who regard it simply as a political machine to further their selfish ends. We do not consider it a misfortune that, these Grand Army posts l>w*e seen fit to offer publicly so gross an insult to our Chief Magistrate. "We rcgict, of course, that any body of fv\n]<1 hr> Inn ml who would glory I:i a course which puts them in such an unenviable light, but if this once-honored society is irretrievably in the povrer of pension grabbers and demagogues, it is well that the fact should be widely known. The street in front of the window from which the portrait was suspended, it is stated, was blockaded with an excited throng all day. As the posts went marching by the officers harried to and fro, urging their men to lower their banners. Many Democratic members of the Grand Army, when they realized what was taking place, tore their badges from their coats and left the ranks. The excitement reached its height when Encampment No. 1 of the Union Veteran Legion of Pittsburg parsed under the banner with their flags high in the air and with many o? the members with their heads an covered. It is very evident that if the Grand Army is to retain the respect and the auecuoii 01 iuo pcupju iu:iL ic uu.s uuu in the past, there will have to be a radical reorganization in many of its posts. We know nothing of the political complexion of the members of the Pittsburg Legion who made such a striking exhibition of their independence at Wheeling, bat it is safe to assume that they numbered as many 11? !- it.!.. 1.?

It was not a question of politics, but whether they were willing to follow blindly the contemptible course of the smaller Fairchilds and Tuttles of the Grand Army.

(Edgefield Adcertisc r.) It is said the lynching case cost the parties concerned ten thousanddollars., seven thousand five hundred of which went to the lawyers. Judge Wallace, president of the "Wallace House Association," has appointed Hon. W. Scott Allen on the committee to make arrangements for the meeting of this historic body on Wednesday of the Columbia Fair next November. (Oraigei/u ry Times.) The best possible use to put criminals at is to put them to worfc on the public highways. This will be the means of benefitting the general public, and will bring tnc convicts inio iuu least competition with free labor, and the result will be good roads at small cost. (Lexington Dispatch.) Mr. Henry Crira, of Sandy Ran, writes us that Mr. D. 13. Culler killed two rattlesnakes at one shot last week. One of them was four feet six inches long with twelve rattles and a button; the other four feet and three inches, the rattles being shot ofF. (Edgefield Monitor.) Jones is not out on bail, and our statement of last week was therefore incorrect. The order for bail nad been granted and the amount fixed at ?10,000, but up to our latest advices the bond had not been made satisfactory to Clerk Durisoe. A ten thousand dollar freedom is not easy to purchase, especially under the circumstances surrounding Jones. (Clarendon Enterprise.) A few days ago "Doctor" R. D. Hied made" a desperate attempt to commit suicide by butting his brains out against the bars in the Sumter jail, but he was found out and chained down. lie is awaiting trial for assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature, but it is likely that he will be adjudged insane and sent to the Lunatic Asylum. {Daily bun.] No Southern mau is ashamed of the name of '\Rebel." The pure blood of heroes, the dvin<f agonies of marvtrs to principle have sanctified and glo- I rified the name. This country was | created by Southern ilcbcls; one of them presided over the exercises at Yorktown, and another drew up that famous declaration that we celebrate every Fourth of July. (1\alee Index.) The exporters and buyers at the different ports have determined to deduct two pound- from each bale of cottou having side strips.

There are some drawbacks to this method of settling differences; but it is better than mud slinging. 0Johnxto/i Monitor.) Ti'ial Justicc White, of Liberty Hill, heard a case in his court recently in which Sarah Hoiloway was a witness. From some cause Sarah could not attend, but sent her t^stimuy in writing, as follows: "Edge field County, S. C. 1S87 June Mr Judge ard to cort I do here certificate that Sampson Freemon did come inside of Simon Hollowavs inciosure .-nd did disturb him and myself very much by accuseing Simon Hoiloway of stelling the said oats Sampson explain to Simon that you arc the vary grand rasscal that stold my oats, and Sampson said several other flattering words vrrnr rmndifmt Sarah Jane Holloway." {dewberry Observer.) The parties charged with writing and posting libelous letters at "Walhalla are under bond to appear at the Sessions Court for trial. But a public meeting of the citizens of Walhalla and Oconee county has passed resolutions ordering them to leave the State, never to return. IIow then can they appear for trial? The parties say they arc ready for trial, but the meeting savs to them: You shall not have a trial; we condemn you without trial, and banish you from the community. If this is not mob law, what is it? The parties are certainly entitled to a trial?a fair trial in the court. If they be found guilty according to law, it is time enough to banish them. (Aiken Recorder.) We endorse as highly practical the suggestion of Dr. I>. F. Wyman, that homes be built for the aged and infirm veterans of the lost cause and that they be called Jeff Davis Homes. He proposes that this be done in every Southern State, and that this be the monument that we erect to our noble chieftain, and that the work be commenced during his life. Such a monument would be more enduring than marble or brass, and would afford reiiei to many an ageu una murm veteran of the glorious cause for wnick we fought and suffered. Now is the time to consider this matter, for in the next twenty-five or thirty years most of those who wore the grey and marched under the stars and bars will have departed to that bourne from whence 110 traveler returns. Dr. B. F. Wymau was Captain of Company F, 11th South Carolina Infantry, and rendered gallant service on many a Yinwsl UblllL vubiivuviu* (Carolina spartan.) Last spring the Spartan urged farmers to plant sorghum enough for the home demand. A larger "area than usual has been planted. That 011 upland is very fair. The low bottoms seem admirably adopted to its growth. Col. D. P. Duncan says that Tvger river made a clean sweep of the bottom corn in Union county, but he saw a field of sorghum that was overflowed aud it was not injured at all. The fodder is muddv but the stalk is sweet and good. A freshet will not hurt it, unless a raft bears it down. With the ftvanorators carefullv used, a jfood quality of syrup may bo made. If the juice has to stand a few hours b2fore boiling', a little fermentation will begin. To correct this sugar makers use lime at the rate oi ounces to forty gallons of juic^^HHfl lime may be' put in the bafiHpm stirred up occasionally. If th^^fling is done as the juice comes from the mill, the lime is not necessary. Only clean vessels should be used to put the syrup in. (Abbeallc Helium.) During the prohibition contest in Texas Jefferson Davis wrote a letter to Ex-Gov. Lubbock who was once a member of his staff. He took grounds against prohibition, while at the same time he favored temperance. The Anderson Intelligencer speaks harshly of Mr. Davis on account of this letter. It was wrong to do so. It is time for the newspopers of the South to let up on Jefferson Davis. lie has no equal 111 America. lie distinguished himself in the old army when a young mau. lie made a e:reat reputation in Congress both as llepreseniative and Senator. lie was a conservative man and was elccted President of the Confederate States and his duty was to fight the war to the end. lie did so and' suffered more than any other Confederate by his imprisonment in Fortress Monroe after the war had terminated. Jefferson Davis is a man of irreproachable character. He is a scholar and an orator. He is honest and capable. Whatever may have been nis mistakes and short comings he is entitled to the respect and veneration of every man in the South. Let our couteinporarv hunt up some other scapegoat.
