The MGunt Vernon Green Houses. ir Year by year tte home of George Washington becomes more and more a national monument, dear to the heart of every American. And pe culiarly dear to the heart of every South Carolinian, inasmuch as it waa by the noble and indomitable effort of a high-souled South Carolina wo man that it became this national monument. But for the gifted and patriotic Pamela Cucingham, of South Carolina, Mount Vernon would have become a cornfield-without his torical marks or vestiges. And now another noble South Carolina woman represents her State as its Vice-Re gent in the Mt. Vernon Association Mrs. Gov. Pickens of Edgefield. Among the many important and beautiful features that have lately be come prominent at Mt. Vernon, are thc Green Houses, which, under the loving and learned care of Mr. Frank lin A. Whelan, have wi"-hin a year or two past, become marvels of beau ??T??ot only' l^?^dcc?mpJIs?eti" anoTe"^ perienced horticulturist, bat he ie also a high-toned and polished gentleman, whose labors and presence lend dig nity to this Mecca of America. And now the Association designs making these beautiful Green Houses a source of profit, that they may continue to be able to keep up the home of the Father of His Country as it should be. To this end, Mr. Whelan has issued Catalogues in the styie of oth er florists; and we bespeak for him, and for Mount Vernon, the patronage of the women of South Carolina-the countrywomen of Pamela Cuningham. Mrs. Pickens is Chairman of the Green House Committee of the Association. Address Franklin A. Whelan, Gar dener, Mt. Vernon, on the Potomac, Fairfax County, Va. The Cokesbnry District Church Record. This is the name cf a very interest ing monthly published at Cokesbury by Presiding Elder Kirkland. The basis of the Records work for 1S83 is : A revival in every church in the district during the year ; 2. The pay ment of dollar for dollar on the assess ments made tor ministerial support ; 3. The collection of every dollar as sessed for the various Conference collections ; 4. One dollar per mem ber from every charge lor the endow ment of Wofford College ; 5. A revi val of the missionary spirit in all our churches. The price of the Beeardie only thirty cents a year. We. hope our Methodist friends will support it handsomely. e v.e?? ?itipgr jin TKe Governor of Alabama has of fered a reward of $5,000 for the ar rest of Vincent, the absconding State Treasurer, while the bail of Polk, the Tennessee defaulter, has been reduced from $100,000 to $30,000. He could not give the latter amount, and was carried back to jail, completely brok en down. Wiggins's Storm ? In less than a month, half the American continen- is to be swept away! On the 11th cf March is to come Wiggins'8 great storm. Look out, and be ready. The Augusta Chronicle's edition on Sunday morning last, was five thou sand copies. There is no better evi dence of Augusta's progress than this. DON'T WANT GRADED SCHOOLS. The citizens of the town of Orange burg, at a public meetiog last Friday, decided by a vote of 45 to IS that no additional tax should be ?evied for the purpose of establishing a free graded school. The News and Courier declares that industrially, and particularly in man ufactures, South Carolina is the most progressive State in the Union. Glad to hear it ; but why denounce Protec tion if such progress is made under it ?-Boston Advertiser. The vigorous growth of manufac tures in South Carolina and Georgia has taken place in spite of, and not because of, the " protection" of the present Tariff. And we know this to be the deliberate opinioa of many of the best informed and most intelligent of our manufacturers.-Ncxvs and\ Courier. Another Edgefield Man Dies in the West. Mr. Joe Padgett, of whom we made pleasant personal mention some months ago, died at his home near Buffalo Gap, Texas, on Tuesday, Jan nary 23rd, after a sickness of only four days. We sorrow at making this anr.ouncement, for we knew Joe Padg ett before he moved to the West having lived neighbor to him for sev eral years, and we knew him to be a good neighbor, a kind-hearted man, scrupulously honest and generous to ??'fault. And these traits went with him to his Western home and drew about him a host of friands who, we know, will greatly miss him now that he is no more. He had purchased a tract of mest excellent land and was just "getting ready to live" when the "grim monster" came and laid its icy hand upon him. He leaves a widow in the West and many relatives in this County to mourn his loss. 3ioniior. Carolina's Military. WASHINGTON, February 8.-A state ment of the militia force of the United States, prepared by the Secretary of War and submitted to Congress, shows that South Carolina has one hundred thousand men availuble for duty, un organized ; 5,179 non-com??isaioned officers, musicians and privates, 452 commissioned officers, 382 company officers, Go general staff officers and 7 general officers. I The Carolina Cumberland Gap and Chicago. Greenville Daily News, February Uth. Ex-Gov. Hagood passed through Greenville yesterday, having just re turned from New York. He nas been engaged in that eily in work for the Carolina, Cumberland Gap and Chica go Railroad, of which he ia the Presi dent. Gen. Hagood speaks of the pros pects of his road with his ham ual caution and coolness, but does not hesitate to say that there is plenty of ground for confident hope- for the speedy construction of this magnificent and important thoroughfare-which means much more probably than a less forcible statement from a person of a more sanguine and enthusiastic temperament. Gen. Hagood says that while in New York he completed important and favorable concracts for terminal facilities with the Louisville and Nash ville and South Carolina roads. These will secure the Carolina, Cumberland Gap and Chicago outlet at both ends, the contracts being good for ten year3 from the time the new road beeins to haul freight. Encouragement was received from capitalists in New York and on next Wednesday the financial agent of the road will leave New York for England in response to encourag ing letters and with prospects of suc cess as good as they can be at this early time. When work is commenced it will be pushed to completion with a rapidity unparalleled in the South. Gen. Hagood desiies us to distinctly lunderstanXthaU^ business like view of the whole work, shows that much has already been done, and that the prospects for the completion ol the road of at least aa much as lies in this State within two years are excellent, negotiations be ing just now in the condition of rea sonable probability of success. The Simpase. Tbe Grand Jury at Aiken Finds a True Bill Against thc Accused. AIKEN, February C.-Notwith standing the conflicting opinions, the grand jury found a true bill against Dr. W. S. Sims at five o'clock this af ternoon. A petition was read bj Mr. David Johnson, Jr., his counsel, who arrived here this afternoon, ask ing that on account of the aggravated nature of the assault and the popu lar indignation against the prisoner, that the case be transferred to some other county. Judge Pressley granted permission to transfer the case tu Richland County Court, which will convene at Columbia on the fourth Monday in March. Annual Reports of County Disburs ing Officers. Aiken Recorder. " Just here we would call attention to the fact that m February 1SS2 the Legislature of South Carolina passed an act requiring all the County Treas urers, as well as County and School Commissioners to make annual reporta through the public prints; aud, in addition, that said reports shall be handed to the Circuit Judge for prop er inspection and examination by the grand juries of each county. Sorne have seemed to regard the require ment as au unnecessary expense, but when viewed with reference to the recent experiences of Tennessee aud Alabama, we think few will regard ii othe; wise than a prudent and neces sary measure. The honeai. official is puways wiLiJg and desirous to ickow the correctness of his accounts and expenditures ; but whether willing or not, every cfiicial who disburses the funds of the tax-payers should be re quired to make these published state meuts for the safety and satisfaction of his employers." Shooting at Coiuuel Cash's Sou. There has been no little excitement in Lancaster the past few days in consequence of an attemnt made to kill Mr. W. B. Cash, son of Colonel E. E. C. Cash, who has been in Lau caster for a week or so. Last Sunday night two pistol shots were fired in the window of his room at the hotel but wi'.Iiout any harmful results. Mr. Cash 's visit at Lancaster is a eui ject ol' much speculation among the citi zens. Some think that his mission is to get a ease for Melton in regard to the Lancaster riot, aud others think j he is trying to collect evidence suffi - | cient to contest the election. Young Cash is six feet six inches high and weighs 240 avoirdupois. All that he said about the shooting* was that if the party who did it would call on him in the day time and give him a showing he would accommodate him. He further stated that they could kill him if they wanted to, but hie father would certainly avenge the assHS3? n.-Charlotte Obseivcr. The Mexican Veterans. WASHINGTON, February 7.-Mr. j Rice who has charge of the Mexican Pension bill, eaid to-day that he had little hope of getting the bill passed this session. Mr. Kelly, he said, had promised him that if possible he would give him a chance to call the bill up 6ome time next week, but that he thought it very doubtful that be could get the bill through. The annual amount that will be required to pay these pensions will be something Jess than $1,500,000. There are about fourteen thousand veterans who will be entitled to the pension of $8 a month. The Nev; York Post and its weekly edition, the Nation, have been en gaged for some time in a vigorous denunciation of the South and espe cially of the tendency to murder sup posed to exist in this latitude. The Richmond ?itale reveals the obvious auimus of the attacks. It shows that Carl Schurz, the editor of the Post and Nation, received the money io buy those journals from Henry Vii lard, President of the Northern Pa cific Railroad Company. That com pany is vitally interested in attract ing immigrants to the West and in keeping them from the South. It ia perfectly natural, therefore, that a newspaper bought and paid for with :he railroads money should do its itinost lo paint the horrors and dan cers of Southern life in such colors ;hat immigrants who think of coming lere instead of patronizing the North ern Pacific Railroad and going West wili be frightened back.--Greenville News.

We subjoin a portion of a very pleasant letter to the Augusta Chron tete, eigned H. D. B : EDGEFIELD, February 9.-While at Trenton, yesterday, I was much in terested with the" L-utbusiasin of the Trentonites regarding their town and ita advantages over Aiken as a saoi terium. I am informed that it is fully eighty feet higher than Aiken, and that the atmosph?re is lighter and more beneficial to those suffering with lung diseases than that of Ai ken. If this is true, it will only be necessary to publish the fact broad cast and the town will fill up with wealthly invalids in a short time. On Saturday the license law on liquor, hich raises the license to $C25, will go into effect and probably two of the"three saloons here will go up. The popular vote is against the sale of intoxicating liquors and the high license was fixed with the view of breaking up the traffic. Business in the town is dull just at pr ?seat and there is very little news of interest stirring The Trenton House, of which Cap tain T. H. Clark is proprietor, is sit uated just near the depot and from this place a hack is daily run to Edge field. Captain Clark is one of thu most popular and highly respected citizens of the place. Edgefield, re nowned for its thorough Democratic proclivities, is rapidly progressing. There is a vira and determination about the people here to go ahead, which must lead to success Thia ia ~ A_...> ~<MUW.;:IS youil^ tm ^9fPedr'Lieutenant-Governor who, by the way, is at home in any portion of thc Stale. Several years ago I predicted, through the columns ol the Chronicle, thatiu time he would reach the top of the ladder and he is not far from it now. Although he has Ecarcely yet inhaled the soft gales of thirty summers, he is a sage in wis dom and possesses the eloquence of a Roman orator. I had the pleasure of meeting with him and his brother to day, both of whom are genial and entertaining gentlemen. The late disastrous fire had consid erably marred the beauty of the town. Every here and there, sand wiched between fin? stores and dwell ings the grim ruins of the fire fiend are to be seen. I was surprised tc learn that there is no fire engine in the town. A well organized fire company would certaiuly have done much to stay the ravage*' of the de stroying element during the last great conflagration. A Terrible and Expensive Tria!, It is a mistake to suppose, aa some perhaps do, that a contested election in Congress is remunerative. The an noyance is worth ten times the amount. Men who act as their own attorneys may make something, but not otherwise. Take the case of Mr. Tillman. Leaving out the montai disturbance, I undertake to say that the Edgefield philosopher will not bo able to more than pay his lawyers with the fund allowed him. Ho har had a terrible and expensive trial foi the past six years. Thank beaven he will escape another ordeal ! I hope indeed that all of his troubles in that line are at an end. He has fought the battle at Washington quite as much for the honor and glory of his Stats as for his own ambition. It is time, for a calm to fo'low the storm, and lor the future to hold for him promotions that may make*'' some ajnjjnjfl far tba iti?ttgriff tkW&tfif? ? tions of the past.- Washington Cor.

The President Alleged tobe Smitten foy thc Charms of the British Minister?? Daughter. The Stars and Stripes and the Un ion Jack are likely soon to entwine sensational y in ?t matrimonial way. President Arthur has evidently be come smitten with Mies Sackville Wust, the daughter ol' the British Minister, who is heir presntn: five to his brother, Lud Sackville, who has been six years in the British Peerage. The British Minister is a diplomat ist of thirty years standing, and he married, when Secretary of the British Legation at Madrid, twenty years ago a most charming Spanish lady nf ex cellent family, butin reduced fortune who io now dead, and who h id been for a brief time on the stage. lu the event of the marriage President Arthur eau at the end of his term carry into effect what is understood to bea long cherished wish on his part, to trayei extensively abroad. Indeed, if he chose to permanently reside abroad in England or in Paris, he would through out his life receive very much more attention and live a much more com fortable, and indeed more of a publi . life, than (to judge from the retired lives of previous President*) he could enjoy in this country. Miss West is nat yet of age, but has ?ill the charm3 of persou that add to the dignity and presence ol a much older woman. Oddly enough the I President of tho United States is a Biitish subject under British law, which extends the right ol'subjectsbip to the son or grandson of a British subject, although he is born abroad; anu President Arthur's father was a British subject, and, if the ex Presi dent ever resides in England he would by the courtefy of the court take pre cedence along with ex-sovereigns.
