The election in Ohio on the 4th inst., to fill two vacancies in the Legislature caused by the deaths of Demcrats resulted in returning Democrats. In the 4th Senatorial district the Democratic nominee was elected by 1,600 majority, an increase over the majority at tne November election. In Franklin county the Democratic Delegate was elected by 4,200 ma jority, the largest majority ever received by that party in the county. The Democrats again have a majority of eight on joint ballot, which will enable them to pass such Congressional redistrictingbill as they may desire. * The State pension appropriation, $50,000 will be distributed this year in two payments, one on the first of March, and the other on the first of ; Julj, ju I'hm lilt1 monthly payments will be discontinued. The amount coming to each pensioner cannot be determined until the various County Boards have reported to # the State Board. When this is . done the apportionment of the $50,000 will be made and the pensioners will receive the amounts due them in two payments, as indicated above. Ex-Governor Chamberlain, in his speech before the Boston Reform Club on Sunday, denounced the wholesale robbery of the Treasury going on under the name of pension bills. Concerning the negro question, Mr. Chamberlain said the negroes are getting along very under the control of^ the white people of the Soutlij^tod special Federal legislation intended to interfere witfi their control can do nothing but harm. John Wyly, a railroad man at Atlanta, Ga., was arrested February 7th, on a telegram from Birming ham, charged with complicity in the murder for which Dick Hawes is tc be hanged on the 28th. Hawes, it if understood, has made a statemenl implicating Wyly. He has beet taken to Alabama. Wyly was once arrested at Birmingham on suspicior of being an accomplice of Hawes but the indictment against him wai notj^^ge^^ ar decree of divorce was granted Mr Sarah Brown, wife of Major .Browi on ;the grounds of desertion. I less than half an hour after the d< cree had been granted the wronge and forsaken plaintiff found sola< for her blighted affections by we< ding J. Gier. This case probabl beats the record. Sixty colored emigrants from Nei berry, in charge of W. H. Gaine passed Anderson February 7, < route to Arkansas. They said th< were seeking richer lands and n better white people or higher wage Another crowd will follow from Ne1 berry this week.

Fnr tha Lexington Dispatch. "W. H. H." 'Beards the Lion in His Ben/ We suppose our fluent Mr. Holzhauser thinks he haB run us in a hole and pushed the hole in on us, but we trust he will do himself no harm for we are still here. We have for the past two weeks been endeavoring to draw some conclusions from his last reply in defense of the Alliance. We find tW - it- senilis TTTTmhk that a free and honest discussion of their principles will be mutually beneficial; yet he says that hereafter his time will be fully occupied by other matters in connection with the Alliance. We are very sorry that he could not continue to write and further discuss a few important points upon which he has heretofore merely touched. He claims that he did not say "that i he did not need any advice," yet he made us to understand in his first ' article that they could get along as ' well without our suggestions as with Thin is fts much as to say - that our advice is beneath their no> tice but they would probably listen 1 to advice from a more competent source. [ One point which our correspondl ent has, to a certain degree, failed to ; discuss openly is in reference to the jute trust. "We wish to understand that we are as much opposed to the ' jute trust, and every other trust, as r he is and we are not in favor of granting any concessions whatever. - We cannot see where our suggestions ) in regard to this matter were in the i nature of a concession.

C., for the Lone Star State on the ' 14th of January, but did not come I straight through. I learned from a friend on the train that Messrs. Hen drix, Corley and Amick were going to start on the night of the 15th and I waited over in Augusta, Ga., for them so as to have company. We traveled together as far as New Orleans, there we separated, they going by the way of Houston and I by way of Shreveport, for this place. I arrived all o k on the morning of the 17th; had a very pleasant trip and saw much fine land. The best land I saw on the way was in Louisiana, along the Mississippi and Red rivers. The farmers of Louisiana were plant ing sugar cane for this year's crop. The cane had sprouted out from the stubble of last year's crop and was looking fine. I was told that to be sure of a stand of cane, they were planting in the middle of the rntc ar> if *Vna fWfej Tii?lli. ?rd UOblfT they have another chance. I was taken with la grippe the same day that I arrived and was confined to my bed a day or two, but have gotten all o k again. I found my fiiend, Sir. J. L. Cannon, in good health and getting along nicely. He seems to he carried away with Texas. I think the pretty girls of this place are what make him like it as well as he does. But one thing about them I don't like, and that is the most of them use anuft'. This is undoubtedly a fine farming and stock country, though cotton was a failure here the last two years on account of heavy rains and worms in the fall. There was an abundance of corn, oats and hay raised. This is a powerful country for hog culture if some energetic man would show his skill in the business. The farmers of this community have their smoke houses in St. Louis and the result is that when the end of the year comes it takes all they make to defray ex penses. The people here are very cotumon. They spend their money ; free and have a good time while it t lasts. [ This town is a cross tie and wood i point. There is from five to twenty1 five thousand dollars paid out here ?every month to the tie and wood * choppers which makes things lively > for^several days after pay day as the} > sjahd it all here.

February 10, 1800. For the Lexington Dispatch. ?ov\ Items. Farmers are busily engaged making preparations for the crop of 1890. The favorable weather is to their adA/\.A The small grain prospect is very discouiaging in this section. Insects have almost ruined it at many places. We find many large places in fields where there is not a stalk standing. Wheat seems to be suffering moie than oats. Mrs. Pat D. Bicklej, whojj^mind --bafrbFeirunsettied for sometime, has been carried to the lunatic asylum in Columbia for treatment. Hope to hear of her speedy recovery. We are very much pleased to see the favorable prospects of a cotton factory near your town on Twelve Mile creek. We have often thought of the excellent water power of that stream. We hope ere another cotton crop will be raised a factory will be in successful operation. W. J. B. Chapin, S. G\ Feb. 7, 1890. For thft Lexington Dispatch, Items by the Way.

He was appointed last May. Considerable excitement was created Wednesday by the news that ex-Speaker Randall was much worse. Mr. Randall has been so deeply in terested in the fight in the HouRe that he has overtasked his brain thinking of it in order to make suggestions to the Democratic leaders, and it has hac a bad effect upon hie health. A bill has been introduced in the Senate to admit New Mexico. An attempt was made to have the Senate * "i # _ 11 pass the bill providing ior me oigituization of the Oklahoma Territory this week, but it failed, not because of opposition, but because precedence was claimed for the Blair educational bill.

I have been planting oa my land on the river for many years, but, unfortunately, for the past three years, made complete failures by having my crops destroyed by freshets. I now wish to obtain a subsidy from the Government against all future losses ?say thirty or forty dollars per acre on all lands planted. Can you inform me through your valuable journal how to proceed about the matter? I feel sure that I can get the endorsement of the Columbia Board of Trade and the Charleston Chamber of Commerce and the hearty co operation of E. M. Brayton and Tom Miller. If the surplus in the treasury is to be reduced by subsidies on old rotten hulks, then I insist that the farmers should come in for a liberal share T)f the expenditure of the pea- ! pie's money against any loss they | may sustain by freshets, worms, | droughts, etc. Had our fruit merchant, Mr. Cardarilli, have had a subsidy of two cents on bananas, three cents on oranges and in proportion on other fruits, I know that Messrs. Dunn &, Co. would not have had to herald to the world Mr. Cardarilli's failure. ^ Confidence Beget of Success.
