The Court. ! v
The business of the Court was concln-;c
ded last Friday afternoon. We were in fthe
Court room but a very short time, t
but from expressions outside, the public! J
, . arc not unanimous in their endorsement;
of all the work of the session. For in- j,
, stance. Pink Williams was found guilty u
. of "assault and battery." While the'I
* *- fV*?. eiu.1i I
law says [nppuiiinuii^ntiw, .-...v (
Khali be thirty <l.\vs in jail, which law is jA
so amended as.to allow the Court to send;
the prisoner to the penitentiary "with or! (
without hard labor." His Honor sen- L
tcnced Williams to hard labor in tlie pen-1 .
itentiary for one year. The jury, wo >
learn, w'th one exception signed a peti-j!
tion asking a mod ideation of the sentence I (
in this case, which request His Honor re- j
fused on the ground that as the entry had ' \
already been made on the books, he hadJ |
. * no right to change the sentence. j;
Another case in which the public wore 1
surprised at the findingof the jury was in J
the case of the Myers' charged with the
inurilcr of E. IS. Truwitt. When Judge
Thomson sentenced them to five years ,
and two years, respestiveh*, at hard labor ;
in tlie penitentiary in tho first trial, many
were surprised at the punishment which 1
was regarded a* light.
The public are often in error in criticising
the action of the court and the juries.
Tho juries arc composed of our best citizens
who liavo beard sill tlie evidence
i . hearing on tlie wise, and tlicy arc better
- . X J...
, prepared 10 reiuter a jtisi vuruin, iuhu ?m ,
outsider, and it is very probable that they
' > will give a vefdict in exact accordance
with tbo facts as they understand them. <
The public should sustain the juries and
tho judges, even if we think they arc
* tfroug. Our only safety is in the courts. I

Senator Hill's Attack upon Senators |
Hampton and Butler.
Hon. B. IJ. Hill, of Georgia, in the!
genate last Friday, renewed hia attack '
upon South Carolina's honored Senators |
Hampton and Butler, and the synopsis of;
the jiffair which wo present our readers,!
shows that he would do well to leave the;
Tfiafo-keeping of the honor of South Caro-I
liha in the hands of her own chosen Sen- j
ators. In days past wa have honored
Senator Hill, and his personal attack up-,
on our Senators in 11 icts pain upon those

* tofore respected and honored him. Wc
"* bopo for his own sake, as well as for tlio
'feelings of his friends on the Carolina
'side, that he will not again attempt to
cast an unwarranted slur upon our representatives.
They arc dear to us, and we
. believe them to have acted upon the highest
principles in the Spofford case, and
any effort of Mr. Hill to attach blaino to
' - them will be unavailing, except in so far
rh he may be abc to offend onr own people.
Wo hope that he would not williug:'"V'
? ly do that.
The Republican Xomiucc.
Iu the history of newspapers no man |
has ever been so thoroughly discussed |

ty clear to our mind that his character is,
not spotless under the head of bribes, ,
* But whether he over took bribes or not,
his personal histor3' is nevertheless inter*
osting. lie commenced life as poor as
any boy ever coin mcuced and made his ;
first money cutting wood. When lie
went to schodfrit is said that he was un- j
der the necessity of going to bed while his
. v boarding mistress patched his only pair
of breeches. II is progress in the upward j
y march was steady and gradual until now,
he is the nominee of the Republican par- j
ty for President. There is something in
a poor boy who can rise to his eminenco, j

P Mr. Joseph H. Earlo and Mr. John J.
Dargan at Sumter a few davs ago became .
J* * engaged in a personal difficulty in the!
presence of the court. For this breach'
. they havo been suspended from practice
vk+ . until January next, and each were fined I
* J* any dollars. They are ambitious young
*'* men of excellent cbaractor, possessing j
J: . talent of no mean degree, but from the
fact that they are continually wanting to j
fight or kill euch other it seems that an'
, insane desire has taken possession ofj
them in the belief that there is not room J
. in^umter for both of them, and they have
made themselves famous for their futile,
' attempts to fight. We trust hereafter we;
M may hear 110 more of it. Tho timo for'

["ho Science of Geology not Inconsistent
with the Teachings of the Bible.
The Reverend R. A. Hanson, D.D., lfr'hn o
atlc contributor to the columns of our e^*
DI!
eenied contemporary the Associate Reformed j
'Vc.ibylcrian. Last weclc he had "Helps for |
.esson llrst Sabbath in July, 1880," taking for j
ils text Genesis 1, 2-3; ill, 4-3. In this lecture:
re think thetcacher exposes less Information ; *
?n his own part, than the average Sunday
iohool scholar is presumed to ;iosse38, and in j ^
hat "lesson" the learned 1>. D., furnishes the | nmj
.iviiiaii with one more proof, as strong: as ho-1 si
v writ, that he must do a little of his own ' JJ1C
hinking, and not blindly accept as gospel
ruth everything that may come from the pen froi
>f one who has even had the honor of having
\ 1). a (fixed to his name. This learned D.
seems to have imbibed the Ideas which the
1 *'1? .1-... ..r r3ollll.,.? i tile
vere prevalent wi'mu wiv uu^n ui u<uu?",i.
ind it would seem iroxn bis writings that no|,JJ(
ay of light, discovered since that time, has (the
ntcrcd his brain, lie would cling to the oltl;
exploded idea that there Is a conflict between j ou
science and the teachings of tlio Bible, and ; up
.lint it was necessary to bring -at. least thejj'11;
science of geology into disrepute to main- Wil
ain tbc integrity and Inspiration of the Holy | smi
Scriptures, It is a fact which cannot be gain- jim'
said that any man whoexpccts to establish tbc ,,m
[ruth of tbe Inspired word by attempting to j om
[>ut tbesclencesat nought, will defeat bisown j '' Xl
liins in the most effectual manner. The or- Ln(
Lhodox world arc ready to admit, and do T
maintain, that tbe discoveries of science are J
tit ill all in conflict with the. teachings of tlio llc'i
Bible, and any assumption that tlie inspired got
word pretends to advance particular views
an nny of thcsciouces degrades the holy book, on
nnd that degradation tends to fill the world i thi
with infidels. Scientists of the present day, I
lor instance, know exactly how the rainbow j m-c
in the cloud is producod, and they know also ) niu
that the phenomena must have been seen by |.[j"
our earliest progenitors, but nevertheless that | |
fact docs not by any means disprove that oth- etc
er fact, that (Joil promised, or swore, by the j
"riilnbow In the cloud" that there should be chi
no oilier "flood to destroy the earth," and we or
presume that no Christian ever loyks uponjlj";
llie "rainbow In the cloud," withoaUrecullitip j tv'
to mind, with feelings of gratitude, the prom- j mi
Ise which lie made to Noah. It'is a well [ 'Ljlt
eslablished fact, known to nil persons, int
except a few of I lie superstitious preach- ,uj
ers, who upon principle refuse to learn
anything, that the Uible does not pre-|stu
tend to*feach geology or any other of the a
scienes. ]l is a book which teaches usourdu-1
ty to God and man, and furnishes the only tin
revelation from the Creator to the created. |
The sciences arc nowhere taught in the Bible, jan,
but that book is written lu the language in nu
common use at that time and no fair P''j
reader will deny that the JJibtts writers were aw
not only ignorant of geology but were also ar?
unacquainted with a thousand other discov- j-'^
eries which science lias since reveaieu. In W1
proof that there was ignorance, on one sut)-|ie
Ject at Icasl, we will Instance this expression ;
in onT. theprophets:"From therlsingof tlio 0(l
sun, even unto the going down of the same, far
my name shall be great among the Gentiles." 'jj1
When that sentence was written it was be- vvj
lieved to be literally true but it is now a well J
established fact that the sun docs not "rise," jjjj
neither does it "go down," and when we make thi
use of these terms it is a perpetuation of an at
expression which perpetuates the fact of our
former Ignorance upon a subjection which <j<
every man of the present day Is agreed. of
The learned D. D. uses the wor?l-"GooIogis- ^
ters" in contradistinction from "Geologists." m
As we have no information of any such sci- J1"
entists as "Gvologisters," andean find nosuch pj
word in our dictionary, which is the latest in
edition of "Webster's Unabridged," he has us ! 1
at a disadvantage, but we presume it must J ^ j
lie from them that he obtains the Information (<;x
as to the exact deptli the water o? ;thc oceans j j|j
would cover the whole earth. Wo are told i m
by late writers on that subject that much ofjvi
the waters of the earl h have not been sounded
and that the exact depths of the oceans have | w;
not, as yet, been ascertained, but it is said that j m
within the Inst forty years the belief has j
gained ground that the oceans are not by any j f0
means as deep as they were formerly believed j so
to be. The learned D. IX no donbt ascertaincd
the exact spoonful of water to bo found in |
the great basins from the "Geologlfiters," as I be
such fact could from no one else be learned. J:?
But even admitting his "hulf mile" statement i tj,
to be exactly true, we cannot see tho relevan-' of
cy between the statement and the text, and !l!
this important announcement must have f()
been brought in merely to show his won- St
drous learning on othersuhjects than the one
under discussion. * ajj
The learned D. P. also fulls into the error |d?
which overtakes nearly all of the illiterate j"
preachers of the present day, and which the ; pj
great-Spurgeon truthfully says, has done ' >'?
more to foster and perpetuate lntldellty than f''t
all the Bob Ingersolls that have ever lived, j be
We refer to the common practice of men pos- j co

translators who did their work under Kins |at
Juincs were idiots, and knew nothing of the j'1*
task with which they had beon entrusted. | Vj
To "correct" translations of the Bible seems pr
to form the warp awl woof of the discourses | Hj
of a number of preachers who do not even pj
understand to any degree of perfection, their 1 Ni
own mother tongue, to say nothing of the j**'

wonderful to note, he makes the neknowledg-1
inent that In this department there are some ' ^

A <^?icngo dispatch says there has been ] 'A"
much talk in regard to what is considered as | '
an indirect attempt on the partof the Grant I it,
managers to bribe their opponents In the ov
South. On Saturday evening all of theSouth-1 ?m

circular which read as follows: i j,e

The full significance of this can only be np- j
predated when It is understood that Potter 1 fo1'

hat it makes us do. If it makes us do that.i '10
hich is bad. It Is bad excitement; but if itjoa
akes us agitate about our eternal welfare, if tui
makes us pray, if It makes us attend upon i In

inetinies said that during revivals of rell- ou

en my observation that the earlier peoplo to

age. It is supposed he knew what he was ) wi

IIE PRESIDENT CONGRATULATED GARFIELD
iy telegraph to-night, as also did Secretary
ihertuan. IJoth the President and the Secreary
are, or pretend to be, very highly gratlleu
at Mr. Gurtleld's success. which is rather
nore than Senator Ferry, who said at dinner
his afternoon, that it was a "little too much
)hlo," lie was afraid. The President expresss
regret that Geu. Grant should have allowed
his name to be presented, as It nppcars to
lave been more for his friends than for hinielf.
Secretary 2 Sherman is much of the same
nind of tho President and really appears to
>c charmed at the result. It Is said that he
vlll be tho United Suites senator from Ohio
f Garfield is elected, as he prefers that to beng
secretary of the treasury. He would have
tall six yeara In theSenate and could get but
our from the Administration.
The efl'cct of the nomination upon the Contention
at Cincinnati is variously Interpreted,
senator Kernan, of New York, lor Instance.
;tates that It eliminates Thurman.Jcwetttand
t'ayne, of Ohio, from the contest, as Garfield
vlll sure to carry Ohio. The general opinion
ippcars to drift toward some strong Eastern
nan,and
THE BAYARD BOOM
Has received a decided lilt by the nomination,
if Impressions made at so early a moment
prove lasting. Almost everybody Is satisfied
that New York is removed from tho list of
Joubtful States.
WHO DEFEATED GRANT?
Much talk has been indulged in as to the
probability that Dlalnc dictated tho nomination,
and the general opinion is that he did.
Just nbout I o'clock 131ainc and Sherman
drove in a cnrrlnge to the White Houso and
had n consultation with tho President. Two
dispatches wore sent to Chicago, and one is
suit! to have been to the chairman of the
Maine delegation. Blaine was in his seat In
the Senate shortly after the nomination and
took part in the discussion of the pending
bill. lie appeared as contented and complacent
as though he had been nominated. Once
he was in front of Mr. Conkllng's chair and,
turning about, looked at the vacant neat and
smiled. There Is no sort of doubt about his
satisfaction a: the nomination of Mr. Garfield,
and lie is reported to have Bald thnt he had
given up all Doped of being nominated Monday
ufternoon.
WHAT SENATOR WALLACE THINKS.
Senator Wallace thinks that n? a tlckct to
unllc the Republicans it Is strong, but otherwise
vciy weak. It has no chance In New
York,and the record of Mr. Garfield will be
used effectually against him. It Is a weak
ticket in Pennsylvania, and tho candidate's
turlir record and free trnde speeches, which
gave him a membership In tho Cobdrn Club,
are fearfully against him throughout the
Keystone .state. Altogether, it is a very easy
ticket to beat.

The Republican leaders In tillsStato having

their zeal, will be crippled by this tremendous
mistake and by the loss of prestlgo which atteuds
Its failure, and If the Democratic party
should be reunited the chances arc against
General Garlleld carrying New York, iwhoso
loss would be fatal to his hopes. Tho itepubllllcan
party Is weakened by the long contest
ntChlcjgo, weakened by t he siren uous efforts
for tinr.l term by many of Its principal leaders.
weakened by Its nomination of a ticket
which none of its members would have recommended
or thought of Inadvanco, and It
will have a hard battle to fight if tho Democratic
party should luake u reasonably good
nomination.

If the Democrats of tho county arc not sntiiiflsd
with the result of the Chicago Convention
they are very hard to please. The nominations
at Chicago do.iiot Indeed Justify the
Democrats In cxpectiug to win with tho tainLed
candidate of a divklcd party, Butthey do
imply justify the Democrats lu expecting to
win with a real representative of the principles
of the Demacratls party, upon which this

which in substance peace has been re-established
