The new Governor, on the whole, j strives to be moderate, and we shall j s accept his offer of peace. lie w ill be judged by his public acts, praised | when he deserves it and censured when he merits it. We hope that, although elected and put in office by a ring, he will rise to the high dignity of his office, and be the Governor of the whole people. Many of his recommendations are very good indeed, and we trust that he will have the co-operation of the General Assembly in carrj ing them out. . x If the Democrats in Congress will go immediately to work and carry out C the President's suggestions, they will _ . suoceed in leg ling the party's hold on the people. The principal feature of the message is that part which relates to a change in our financial system. The President endorses the plan suggested by Mr. Carlisle, which is substantially the same as the "Baltimore Plan," about which so much has been said in newspapers and period!""" " AtTll cals. Tins Will care iue gi^av consequent upon the constant drain ^ upon the gold reserve in tbfe treasury.. The President's suggestion as to the repeal of the 10 per cent tax on State - banks will be very generally approved throughout the South. This will enable localities to tide over money panic,'and do much to avoid the evil of constant accumulating of currency in th? large money centres. Mr Cleveland always throws a great mauv chunks of sound wisdom in all of his utterances, and^puts them 111 such ponderous, striking language as few men can. His message t? Congress is no exception. The following sentence is such sound philosophy, and so truly represents the sentiments of the true and honest citizen, that it ought t? be thrown into the teeth of the many cheap politicians of nowadays. lie states that "a vast majority of the voters of the land are ready to insist that the time and attention of ** '* ~~%%.v* f.wVfVtAm mose tney seicut lu pcnuiui ivi important public duties shonld not be distracted by doling out minor offices, aud they are growing to be nnaniraous in regarding party organization as # somethiiTg that should be used in establishing party principles instead of dictating the distribution of places aud - rewards of partisan activity." Had the Democrats as soon as they went into power acted upon this broad and high line, the party would have found itself a great deal stronger to-day, for it would have commanded the confi denes of tbe people, wno wouia nave been gladly to have continued their trust in it. The people would then' have fally realized that Democratic officiate regarded "public. office as a public trust". The misuse of the party organization, upon the induction . of Democracts into power, to put iavorites "iu places" and give "rewards for partisan activity", has been one of the principal causes for the failure of the party to redeem its niprio-ps to the neoole. The "distribu r4W,"&? ? sr - - A ~~X tion of plaocs and rewards for partisan* ~actmtyH~are^he" Cine!" characteristics of the politician and dema^o^n?. Mr. Cleveland gives them a good hard thrust, and they deserve it. Tbe people are indeed tired of the time and attention of their public servauts being taken up with fiillius "places" aud rewarding places. ^ ^ A SkOK-jPartisan Convention. A constitutional convention compared of the very wisest, best, and rnosc patriotic men, who des'ue to adopt a constitution for the good of all ? " the people, and not merely to provide for means to carry oat partisanship and to oppress and harrass their political opponents, might do a great deal ot good. A convention composed of thinking men and patriotic men will be hard to get. We are glad, however, to see that there are, at least, forty Reformers, who say that they want delegates elected tc~"is conven- i tlon irrespective of factions. They ! have issued an address to the Demo-1 cratic voters of the State in which they | call upon all their Democratic citizens who svmnathizs with their views-"to consider earnestly the importance of a non-partisan convention composed ol the wisest and best men of both factions and to fake such action as is decided best to secure it." We are very glad indeed to see this spirit manifested, but the difficulty is to get such a convention. * Wh >m do these forty Reformers represent?

FROM OUR BERLIN CORRESPONDENT. Grand Sights?A Field for Historians and | Painters. j Dear Editor: One of our leisure days has been spent in a visit to the Old Museum. The entrance to this great Art Treasure House, is sublime. A grand flight of steps leads to die long porch, which is supported by 18 Ionian columns. Frescoc> adorn the outside walls of its frontage. Two colossal bronze groups guard the steps, an Amazon on horseback oa the right I (by Kiss) and a lion-fighter, still grander (by A. Wolff) on the left. In front of the steps is a gigantic basin made ont of a single piece of granite from the Ranen Mountains. The rotunda of the museum, as you enter, is filled with the excavations from Pergamos The upper rotunda is hung with the celebrated Raphael A *? .T-no flptf Hnciornr?rl -for Ittptftll \ it ??0-0 VtVW.g WV?. ? Leo X by Raphael, from his 10 car toons; and were woven for Henry VIII?exactly like the originals in gold, silk and wool. These were bought by the Germans in 1S44. From the rotunda we wandered through endless groups of statuary, many of them familiar figures to the classical scholar and art lover. We leisurely strolled from room to room for hours and yet only ab'e to take a cursory glance at the imriads of figures crowding the long vista of rooms: Finally we left from sheer fatigue, physically unable to see all, but promising ourselves to come back another clay. I The second sight came this week and we only glanced casually at the unfinished statuary task and went over to the picture, gallery of the old museum This collection dates back as far as the Great Elector, Frederick the Great., who is identified wiihevery. thing artistic and beautiful in Berlin, contributed a great number of works of the great masters in art. In 1830 the gallery contained 1,207 pictures, aud of course, more have been since added. Painter** of the schools of art from the loth to the ISth century are represented?the collection being in strict historical order. As a representation of different epochs of painting, this gallary is said to be of greater historical value than any other in the world, save the London National Galtery, though perhaps not s > rich ia j mnatf>rn?f>nes of the best epochs as some others. Titian, Raphael, Rubens Correggio, Gnido Murillo, Andrea del Sarto, Van Eyck and Valasques?think of the ecstasy of our minds, when we_ beheld with our own eyes the gorgeous paintings, photograps of many of them, having been brought to me 14 years ago by mr eldest daughter when she returned from Europe. I knew them j by sight as soon as I saw them which made the pleasure double. ! We spent hours feasting our eyes and only wishing we could spend weeks among these visions of beauty. The gallery is free to all and we saw quite a number of artists ai work, copying, here and there, but it really i seemed great temerity in them to sit rvnWio ia hr> ftvitisized. Most xu.j;uv<iv w vw of them were women. We examined their work closely and some of them appeared to be real artists. One young lady was copying the "Ecstasy of St Authonius" by Murillo and seemed to be sttcceeding'admimbly. Titian's daughter, < 'orreggio's "Iupiterandlo"?and hi < head of Christ on a handkei-chief are gems, though one hardly dares to select from so many rare beauties. The Mater Doloroso by Guido, was particularly l?vely, though not exhibiting the humble grief of Carlo Dolcis. The hundreds of representations of the crucifixion aud Madonnas were too much for one day and we have promised ourselves another day in this wondei-ful gallery. Germans stand first in war, and \rc begin to think they stand very near first in everything else, and we do not wonder at the enthusiastic; patriotism of her people. I am thoroughly in love with the nation myself. Adieu. Mary U. Eiox. Berlin, November 2i, lS9i. It is often a mystery how a cold has been "caught."

The Nemurul Courier. T<> the Editor of The Xtics and Courier: A purely agricultural people am never be rich. Thev are necessarily customers ?>f commercial and manufacturing nations to whoso wealth they contribute while they themselves remain poor. If one-half the ploughs that arc run in South Carolina iverc topped, and the people that run them by some magic could be tran?fcrrtd to workshops and factories to furnish articles for home and foreign consumption, the State would in a l'c*v years become incomparably more prosperous than it can ever be under present con - - '.A tlin inil anions, wuciv iut juuuuv,wvi ...- ^ hare to be shipped hundreds ami tometimes thousands of miles to get sales. Even the few fruits and vegetables made in the South for sale have to be marketed in Northern cities through a thousand iniies of nearer and competing territory. The Northern people, who had 1 he foresight to found a colJ lege as soon as they founded a colony, are always wise enough to provide a market for their farm products. As soon as one of their new States is settled and has a surplus of bread and meat, which is about all they can raise, they at once look around to make a home market, and build workshops and factories, to whose operatives they can sell the products of th<^ farm. A citizen of a Northern town in a letter to the writer says: "Wc wanted a frietorv and subscribed $10,000. with which we bought a lot and erected a building and advertised that the property would be deeded to anyone who would establish a shoe factory and run it for three years." The offer was accepted, and the gentleman adds: "I contributed $1,000 of the amount and all I ask is to be allowed to do the like again." Illinois is a fertile prairie State, with very little water power, and seems to have good reasons fur remaining a purely agricultural State, yet it has made" its workshops keep pace with agriculture, so that it is the sccond State in the Union in the amount of its manufactured goods. The farm and the factory support each other, and the continually in<->i-p*o"nor snrnltis overflows upon the 0 i improvident South. South Carolina has over 1,000,000 luuiilable water horse power, with 110 ice to clog the wheels. Of this not 5,000-horse power is utilized and raw cotton constitutes almost its only article of export. New York State alone produces $600,000,000 worth of manufr.ciured articles more than the whole South makes. We need look 110 further to find the caute of the wealth of the North and the poverty of the South, iu spite of the acknowledged superior natural advantages of the latter. It is a puny cry. "We make i them rich." It is true that our little surplus all flows into Northern coffers and that we must remain hewers of wood and drawers of water for the North until we become wiser. But the source of the North's wealth is the home market, which its people have the sense to build up, and their own self-help. A Northern farm journal offered premiums for the best accounts of mortgage lifting given by farmers from their own experience. I have read the essays or dozens or these farmers whose lands cost from $30 to $100 per acre, and 111 every case the debts were paid by the sale of some of the following articles: Milk, butter, eggs, poultry, Irish potatoes, lambs, pigs, calves, oats, fruits and vegetables. IIow surprising this must appear to a cottontot! We need not hug to our bosom the delusion tha any large portion of the Northern people arc poverty stricken as we of the South are. Their very prosperity makes the laboring population presumptuous, causing them to bring trouble on themselves by strikes, etc. Our people are too poor to at tempt such things. The tide of enterprising young men which constantly ibws to Northern cities a;tes:s the fact that industry and business tact accumulate wealth there sooner than in the South. People do not emigrate to poor countries. Before the war South Carolina was extremely prosperous. This was partly owing to the fact that it was full of workshops and was almost self-snpportiug aud cotton was to some extent a surplus crop. The country abounded in carriage, wagon, gin, tailor, shoemaker and blacksmith | shops and in flour mills, corn mills, ; tanneries and hand looms. Now such occupations are almost extinct and we import all that we eat, all that we wear and all that we use, and only have cotton to exchange. Then, in proportion to population, there were five times as many people working at the ordinary trades as there are now, furnishing a market for the products of the farm and keeping the money at home. Some years ago the Legislature, in ; order to develop home markets by the i nf indns tt^VUJVU v va. . tries, enacted a law partially exempting from taxation for ten years all capital invested in new enterprises of this nature. It served to invite foreign capital to enter the State, and 46" draw from biding places^mQWTy*" that had hitherto cscaj)?d-taxation, patting such treasures-in tangible shape for future taxation, at the same time in.creasing the school fund, building up towns, giving the farmer a market for all the products of his farm, with a higher price for his cotton and enhancing the value of ali the neighboring Ionics thorphr infM'AflJsilior thfl Stilted revenue. Thus all the property upon which Piedmont Factory was located only paid in taxes to the State thirty dollars annually all told, yet the factory soon paid into the school fund alone $l,00u, and now after the expiration of the ten years probably pays $8,000 or 310,000 in taxes anuuallv. Had the beneficent law remained on the statute book the State wou'd probably at this time have had ?10,000,000 more capital invested in factories than it has, and would have had 00,000 or 70,000 more white people to [ draw their supplies Jtrora tne nejgnuoring farms. But in a fatal moment the | Legislature repealed this law and killed the goose that was laying gol-.ien eggs. J It is true ihat there is to some extent an awakening in some parts of i the State to the imi).>rtance of building factories, but a rapid development will not take place until the Legislature takes steps to encourage such enterprises. On the contrary, however, demagogues to gaiu popularity among the ignorant and unthinking often try to throw obstacles in the way. England is" the leading manufacturing nation in the w:>rl<i because legislation was shaped to foster manufactories. Intelligent rulers alwa\s and everywhere promote the material interests of their people by proper lesrisjuuou. Legislative inducements to liTe building up of diversified industries is not class legislation, for the whole population of the Slate is benefited; and above all others, the farmers, in whom our chief interest centres, arc most enriched. Again, in view of the great superabundance of negroes in this State, everv facility should have been g'ven them to emigrate as an encouragement to intelligent white farmers to move in, for this class alone are able to renovate and restore wore out lands and gullied hillsides that have been devasted by negro labor.

And now, sad to say, with cotton at five cents nobody in the West wants them. "Those.whom the gods wish to destroy they first deprive of reason." It is gratifying, however, to know that a few men live here who i ealize the importance of home markets. A patriotic and far-seeing planter in Union County persistently refuses to nse for himself and for his plantation hand^ food, clothing or any other article within reasonable limits except what is produced in South Carolina or an adjoining State. He wears Confederate grey, and Southern made cassimeres and jeans are good enough and cheap enough for anybody. If the spirit which animates tills gentleman actuated our people, generally, "light" would then surely soon break ill upon tills old state mat we iuyu su much. There would then be 110 call upon our planters to enter into combinations which must necessarily be futile to bull the cotton market, and all the pernicious anti-option agitation would cease and pcoyle would again make money by attending to^their own business.

He shows that in a lifetime of S4 years the blood as it passes through the heart is thrown a distance of 5,150,880 miles, which/' in a continuous stream, would repfilj-^oimd the world 206 times! t Voornncr in mnnt strain on "tSeUeart, and taking into consideration the abuse it receives from over-exertion, alcoholic and other stimulants, is it any wonder that it finally becomes affected, refuses to ; perform its work, and causes death? The ! fact can be readily understood that one in four has a weak heart, also the importance of treating that organ as ?oon as its affected condition is in the slightest degree manifested. Reader, if you have any reason whatever for believing your heart to be affected, you should attend to it at once. Do not hesitate. Man^jperscns who die suddenly of this disorder have never suspected its presence. Joseph Boody,Pierpont, N. Y., writes: "Three years ago I began to have difficulty in breathing, palpitation of the heart set in, and my limbs and ankle* were badly swollen. Physicians said I could not live a week. I began using Dr. Mllea' New Heart Cure; the first bottle greatly relieved me, and, although 76 years of age, tue several bottles I took altogether so immensely benefited me that I am a new man. I cheerfully recommend this remedy." " While Buffering from a severe attack of heart disease, and expecting to die, physicians having afforded mt no relief, I was induced U buy some of Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure. Every dose lifted mo right up, tuid It seems as though it would almost raise the dead. I would willingly fill the New Heart Cure bottles witk gold for flke magnificent remedy they contain, if I could not get them on other terms."?S. A. Hull, Franklin, N. Y. "For 20 years I was seriously troubled with heart disease and nervous prostration, the latter affecting the sciatic nerve of my left side. During that time I was treated by manv prominent physicians, and rent hundreds of dollars away ibr medicines, all of which failed. Becently I began using Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure, and am now entirely free from my old complaints."? George J. Barn*, Park City, Utah.
