This learned juiist died in Columhia S. ('., on Monday fi'.h inst., in the seventy fourth year of his ago. We deem it a great misfortune to any people, at any liine, to lone ono ol t heir great men, but at this peculiar juncture in the n flairs of the neonlo ol South Carolina it is a misfortune indeed. One that is irreparable, especially at this time to loose a great, man occupying so high a place; charged with the decision ol vital and important question?; questions npon the proper decision of which rest the peace and permanency of our local government. Just at. the time when his eminent learning, and high legal attainments, were needed to determine the question as to who is governor ol South Carolina, and who are the legal Stale officers ol the South Carolina government. Bur, an All wise I'rov idenoe has, in His wisdom, seen lit to order otherwise, and we must how in humble submission to His will, without .1 tuurmer. Chief Justice Moses has figured iu inrlilir life fnr nniu. vnnre I'ri.ir the war lie was for many years a leading Senator in the Legislature of tins State, from Sumter district. Since reconstruction he has occupied the high and important position of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of this State. His duties and labors in that Court, lor a period ol eight or nine years, have been arduous in deed. It has been no bed ol" flowers, but otic of hard labor, both physically j and mentally. It required a great ! mind to grasp and apply principles ot ! law to the many new cases, (new in j character) which lius been brought ' before the Court, in a chango ol the j condition of our people, brought about 1 by the war and its results. The many ! perplex and complex questions arising out of the changed relations of the people, (their wants, right a and necessities,) brought before the Supreme Court were readily grasped by the Chief Justice and lie always showed j h .mself e<|ual to tlio task. Hia.opinj ions as pnblishod in our boolis of rej ports, will rank with those of tin* ' Judges of tho belter days of South I Carolina. Theso reports will remain a | lasting monument to his abilities, as a Judge, imperishable as time, and be I read with profit and pride by the legal profession in all time to eonto. On Thursday evening tho 8lh inst. tho Court of General Sessions being in session at this place, the Solicitor Wt \V. Sellers, rose and announced officially to the couit, the death of .Chief ; Justice Moses, and after a few remarks ! moved that the court a Ijourn until to morrow morning in respect to tho I Chief Justice, winch Judge Townseud j at once ordered. j We have many eminent men learned in the law, but tho place ol Chief J ustice Moses will be did'eull lo fill. It is to be hoped I ho Legislature will 'act wisely, in making a selection "to I supply the vacancy. Death el Den. Gillespie. Gen.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER, The Incoming Administration?Its Head?Its Cabinet?Its Policy?Curious Headings ot' Words nud Lctlevs? The ( ranger Cases?Local?Porsonal, etc. [Special Corresp'mdoneo io tho lIIoUIIY N KW8.) \V ASIIINGTOV, 1). C., March 3, 1877. Thifc morning witnessed a bad ending of a had work. A man wan declared President who did not- receive a majority of the popular or electoral votes, and whose tillo will bo hold iinporlect, for all time. Not oidy that, but his administration must inevitably continue it it. docs not increase the alienation which exists between sections ol the country and the disorders which in one portion ol it make business impossible, industry a thing of the past and an election only a larce. (Corruption will mill thrive, the rights o! iln' Slatert bo trampled under loot, taxation, if not tb? national debt, be increased; crimes against the government go unpunished, and a civil service now the jest of every man who has studied it, become, it possible, a more wretched abase than it now is. Thoie is no doubt all these r< suits will follow the inauguration ol Hayes, lor tlic men who have managed his case, and to whom he owes Ins position are not only among the authors and delenders of all the evil practices ol the last eight years, but tliey as vho worst lot them. It is idle to say that these | men will not be recognized by the man they have advanced, or that the <nie or two better men bo will in do' renry bo compelled to put in bis Cabinet will hi able to diicct the course ol the administration. Speculation as to the Cabinet, by the way, is lively, but clearly very lew are in ihojseeret, farther than it is indi. catcd above, that it will be made up piincipally irom extrcmo men. An cH'ort, a very strong one, h.as been made to keep Mr. Morrill in the Treasury, but, it is understood, without sueCC NS. it is a curious tact that, a second rate Western politician discovered General Grant's military ability, such as tt was, and pushed hint persistenly until he became the commander of the largest army of modern limes, and then lYcsidcnt, end that the fitness ol Hayes lor Ins high ofliuiul, and his availability, were discovered and announced by the same kind ol a man Irom the same section. What Washburn did for Grant, Sherman has certainly done for Hayes. As Thurlow Weed put it, lie "invented Itini." Those \t ho arc loud ol a play upon words and li tters will lind upon studying the name ol Samuel .1. Tilden that the letters composing it also make up the words "entitled nineteen states.' Those of Thomas A. Hendricks also make up "nineteen states." The best you can make out of Rutherford H. Hayes is "defeated three states short." Tbii refers of course to South Carolina, Florida and Louisiana. Nineteen is the number ol stales Tilden and Hendricks reallv carried. A very important case ?one of those known as a "Granger case" involving the right of a Si ate to nrescribe rates ol freight for railroads going out of or coming into the Suite, whs decided by the Supreme Court yesterday in fuvoi of tln? right of the Sinie. The Wen fern Judge who was abused by all the lawyers in the country for making such ft decision will no doubt feel h great deal ol satisfaction ftt this. II? has a right to. The inauguration ceremonies on Monday will not bo as imposing, in the sense ol display, as those in 1 HrtU am! 1873.

If the Father of hit Country whs able to look down from the abode* of bliss on Thursday Inst, and take a birdt eyw view of the metropolis of J i hit only child, ho mn?t have been I gratified to observe the extvut and i heartiness with which his birthday ; was celebrated. Hut our first Hretidcut behind him a reputation for oonsiuTrabln shrewdness, and I doubt not, therefore, that ne noticed, too, an obivioutnets of himself almost at central at the demonrt rat ions. The people love a holiday, and so long as i ' Washington's birthday tarnishes them jthe pretext lor slopping work, polling I on their best clothes and weeing pro1 cessions, so long will Washington's ! name be the inolto of thu festival; but j so tar as that is concerned I guess Julius Ciusur't Birthday would by kept with equal fervor it it afforded j the sumo opportunity for holiday enjoyment. I Hut possibly I underestimate Amurj ican patriotism; possibly the deepest feelings of reverence and gratitude I underlie the pleasure sacking exterior lot the multitude; so 1 will theorize no farther but will apeak biirtly of the ! principal teatureu of the day in New j York. One of these was certainly the dis j piny 01 nags on land ami watvr. From every flag staff in the city, from every public, building, and fro.n the sti til in i I s ot both piers ot the Brooklyn bridge floated the Stars and Stripes in all the brilliancy of a cloudless spring day. From every vessel in the docks, and from 'lie cosmopolitan llect seatteied over the harbor streamed also the same emblem, surely the most glorious banner ever devised by man. On foreign craft the national colors ol each were, moreover, lavishly displayed. On shore the programme of tho day was quite various. On the chimes of Trinity and Once churches long pro grammes of music were performed by their respective ringers, tho audience in each case being the tens of thousands who live within earshot. lit the early afternoon Union and Madison Square were tilled to overflowing with people interestedly watching, in the first ensa a military review, ami in i.l...

"It was hard to I realize," says the Tribune, speaking ol 1 tins dinner, "that these old men, trembling with age, plaeing spectacles on their noses before paiulully scratching their names upon tlio register, had once been doughty antagonists in hut lie." lint so it was, and these relies of former days quavered out many a tale ol their own deeds and daring two-thirds of a century ago. Among iMe guests was a niece of Paul Jones, a lady of 75, sprightly, pleasant and extremely proud of her dushaucesior.

Preparation of Manure. Perhaps the tiino will never com*, when wo can dispense entirely with the use of commercial fertilizers. In Kurope and in the Northern States, where the keeping of stock and making of barnyard manure have, from time to time immemorial, hcen regarded as the road to successful farming, tho use of commercial lertilizeis is rapidly and steadily on the increase. The South 011 the other hand is wisely retrenching in this direction, l?y utilizing materials on the farm, which mixed with cheap commercial fertilizers, rentier them equal in value to the most costly. We refer to composts of cot. ton seed and neid phosphate, which cost very little more than half as much as nminoniatcd phosphates of the same agricultural value. As another step in the same direction, we suggest that composts ot cotton seed and ashes may be made, to demise still farther the purchasing of materials obtainable oi.ly beyond the limits ol the farm. These composts should be made exactly like those with acid phosphate, adding to eight bushels of green col* Ion sued t lio same amount ol unleached ashes?mixing the two thoroughly? welling and trampling ihem well, lhal they may rot slowly and steadily, liolton cotton seed and decomposed stuhlc manure would be unsuitable lor such compost?it would be best to use nothing but green seed and ashes. The quantilies above named would be a moderate manuring for one aero of co lon ? about equal to that amount oi phosphate compost which contains one hundred pouus of acid phosphate. 11 ail the ashes on a farm ate carefully husbanded during the whole year, enough can bo secured to manure quite a number o! acres of land. We would suggest also a bone compost as another home fertilizer. Let all the bones within rea?h* be gathered up, and a pile of alternate layers of wood and hones bo made and fired. When large quantities are to bo burned it is host to begin wiih a moderate I sized pile, not more than tivo or six feet square, ami three or four feel high, and us it burns down throw on more hones and wood until all the Pones are burned. If too great beat is generated and ilie air is excluded (as it will be in j lho centre of a large pile) a part of the ; phosphate of the bones will bo vaporI izeil, driven off and lost. Alter burn, iug, the bones can be readily pulveri ized or broken in email pieces ready f.?r composting. In this comport cotton seed alone and bone may bo j used, or stable manure in conjunction j with the cotton seed. If cotton seed ; alone are used, mix intimately with ! eight bushels of seed, one hundred and I fifty pounds of bones, wet the mixture i thoroughly and tramp well to insure ! moderate, steady putrefactive fennen' lation. It desired, use four bushels of seed and tour of stable manure in place of eight of Reed, ami proceed in the name manner as above. It is nil im> portiut that the mass slioubl be tlior! onglily wet throughout, as the soluhil. illy of the bones depends upon the i proseneo of substances which can only I lie generated by iho rotting of the seed or manure. This compost should j be made at least two months before | planting time. Six months would be . b "t i still. The quantities named above j will manure, moderately, one aero ol laud.
