The eucalyptus tree, of which so
much was said last year when it was
recommended for use in marshy coun
tries, because of its rapid g'rowth, has
been made the subject of a speculation
in Califorr-ia. The Los Angelos lHe
raId reports that a company has been
formed in that city for the purpose of
raising eucalyptus trees for fuel and
muanufacturing purposes. Trees have
been raised from seed in the vicinity
of that eity, which are now four and
half years old, and which measure six
teen inches in diameter, and are forty
feet high. It is estimated that each
tree is worth one dollar for fuel, and
more for manufacturing purposes. The
company proposes to buy land at
about thirty dollars an acre. and plant
each acre with six hundred trees. The
profits, if the trees are cut down at
the end otf four years can be reably
calculated, and the Los Angeles Comn
panyv think they can be realized as
well.

The National Grange.
We co.py from theC New York Dall:
Balletin the following editorial in rec
gard to the railroad action taken bi
the National Grange at its recena
session. We suppose the Balle-tir
knows whmereof it speaks. One thin
is very plain, the Grangers have:
legitimate work in all that relates t<
Agrieulture, and they should uot g
beond this.
Our good friends, tIle Grangers
sCeem to be gradually capitulating t,
the railrood kings, whether they (th
I rangers) know it or not, and that toc
it sems to us, without beingz ver;
particular about the terms or condi
tions of tile surrender.
There had always be en a suspicioi
among observing men that the thin
would take that turn at last, but it is
question whether anybody expecte
to witness its consumation so so
But wonder~s will never cease.I
The National Grange. which is
sort of grand executive committee o
the several subordinate State Grange'
as i~oat of our readers ~xe prebabi.
aware, were in annual session at Char
lestoD, South Carolina, last week -
Mahy of the leading men of the or
ganization from various parts of the
country were there, and a great many
things were talked of, but the grand
event of the session clearly was the
unanimous adoption of a report com
mitting the Grauge and Granges to
Congressional subsidies for the largest
and most extravagant railroad schemes
of the day. The Texas Pacific Rail
road was "endorsed" without a wby
or wherefore. Congress was asked to
extend to it "reasonable aid" and to put
it through as speedily as possible. The
equally expensive project of a "double
steel-track freight railroad from New
York to Missouri," was also endorsed
-the endorsement meaning, if it
meaus anything, that Congress should
put the public credit at the service of
the astute and enterprising gentlemen
who, with a persistency that is posi
tively heroic, are urging the project as
a sort of patent solution of the various
vexed questions pertaining to the
cheap transportation problem.
Remembering how non-affiliation
with railroad schemes, railroad kings
and railroad corporations was one of
the cardinal principles proclaimed by
the Grangers when Grangerism was
in its cradle, one can realize what a
thorough surrender it has made at
Charleston. Possibly "some enemy
has done this thing." The surrender
may have been performedunconscious
ly, under the operation of some anes
thetic applied by sonic crafty emissary,
say of wicked Tom Scott, who must
have wormed himself into the conven
tion as if to steal away its brains.
Clearly, the rustic confidence charac
teristic of the farmer class and the
dwellers among green fields has some
how been cruelly abused, or it would
never have committed itself to pro
position, which are preposterously in
conflict with those that every good
Graiger has been proclaiming from
the housetops and corners of the
streets, these three or four years past.
Be that the true theory or not as to
the secret influences at work, certain
it is, never was a case of deliberate
self-stultification so picturesquely per
feet.
The National Grange proposes to
speak and act for some twenty-two
thousand subordinate bodies, which
are supposed to have an aggregate
constituency of a million and a half.
People who are fond of studying
phenomena of the kind will await
with some curiosity to see whether
the main body of the army are going
over to the camp of the enemy along
with their leader, "bag and baggage,
scrap and scrappage," without troub
liug themselves about the reason why.
Legislative.
The bill to amend the election law
has received its second reading.
As the bill originated it contained
a section of redistricting the State,
but a separate bill for that purpose
being pending, that section was strick
-en out. The bill, as it passed, makes
the following amendments: The State
Felections are to be held on the first
FTuesday after the first Monday in No
vember every second year. The Gov
ernor is to appoint, immediately after
the act, two managers of election for
each county, to hold office for two
years; and the managers of election
are to appoint three judges of election
fo)r each polling place in the county.
The managers cannot be removed
without the consent oif the Senate,
-and should a vacancy occur, it is to
be filled by the Governor, with the
advice an d'consent of the State board
of canvassers. The county board of
Imanagers are to forward the poll lists
and returns to the Governor and secre
tary of State, filling duplicates in the
office of the clerk of the courts and
the secretary of State shall deliver
the returns for Governor to the speak
er of the House of Representatives.
The board of State canvassers shall
meet on the second Tuesday after each
general election, and shall have power
to adjourn from day to dlay for a termi
not exceeding six days. The elections
for judges of probate, county commis
sioners and school commuissioners and
constable are ordered to take place on
the first Tuesday after the first Mon
day ila November, 1876, and every
two years thereafter. The elections
for sheriffs, coroners and clerks of
court are fixed for the same day in
187(5. and every four years thereafter.
Whittemnoie gave notice of an amend
ment giving the Governor power to
fill any vacancy that may occur in the
State offics.
IThe bill to abolish the system which
compels the publication of legal notices
in official newspapers will doubtless
become a law, as it should, it already
having passed to a third reading by a
vote of 73 to 28. It should never
have existed.

In the senate, a bill to amend chap
ter CXXVI of the general statutes re
lating to offenses against civil rights,
was read a second time.
-Also, a bill to amend the tax law.
Also, a bill to amend the act pro
viding for the administration of dere
Slect estates.
IAlso, a bill to require trial justices
-jto exhibit papers to county comnis
soners.
The following bills were read the
third time:
~'A bill tenourne.m stoikraising
A till to require the publication of
monthly statements by the state treas
urer.
The bill to punish per.-:,ns fraudu
lently packing cotton has received its
second reading. The penalty attached
to the offence is a fine from 820 to
$1,000, or imprisoument from one to
six mouths.
The bill to declare certain leval
holidays has also received its second
reading. It declares January 1, Feb
ruary 22, July 4, December 25, and
the national thanksgiving day. legal
holidays.
The bill to amend the State civil
rights bill, which was introduced to
supply a defect in the original law.
has received its second reading, and is
as follows:
'-It shall not be lawful for any com
mon carriers, or any party or parties
engaged in any business, calling or
pursuit, for the carrying on of which
a license or charter is required by any
law, municipal. State o- Federal, or by
any public rule or regulations, whether
he or they have obtained such a license
or charter, or fail or neglected to ob
tain the same, or for any party or par
ties keeping an inn, restaurant or other
place of accommodation or refreshment,
whether a license or charter is required
for the keeping of the same or other
wise, to discriminate between persons
on account of race, color or previous
condition, who shall make lawful ap
plication for the benefit of such busi
ness, calling or pursuit."
The investigations brought to light
by the special investigating committee
in the matter of the bond and coupon
funding will likely claim the attention
of the Assembly for some time. Last
week the idea was entertained of a
sine die adjournmeut and the im
patience of the people seemed likely
to be quieted, but now thr scene is
changed, and the grave izatter now be
fore the body, and in which the whole
people are interested, must be investi
gated. If the Treasurer is guilty or
not guilty the facts should be made
clear. That something is wrong there
is no question of doubt about. As
said. the matter is a grave one, the
ebarges have been made, and an ex
amination of the closest kind should
be had. Therefore, the Assembly
must remain in session still longer.
Where Rests the Blame?
The report of the Joint Special
Comnitttee appointed by the Legisla
ture to investigate the funding of thc
bonds, under the Act known as the
Consolidation Act, is a very grav
paper. It is a qjuestion merely of fact.
If the facts arc as this report states
theum to be, it would seem a matter of
great importance to the public inter
est that some cognizance of them
should be taken by the Legislature.
The report states that S978,000 of the
2,473,385.93, funded in bonds under
this Act, have been declared, by the
unanimous vote of the Senate, impro.
perly funded. [s that so ? Is the re
port true in this particular, and ii
true, is there no way to save the people
from an unjast debt of nearly $1,000,
000 ? And who is responsible for the
funding of these doubtful bonds ?
The report shows that a large
amount of coupons, which have ma.
tured and been paid, ought to havt
been canqled, are also funded, and
declares it'to be a fraud on the State.
It specifies the class, value and dates
of these coupons, and points out foui
classes maturing and paid at fout
several dates, all of which have been
funded, and which amount to the sum
of S454,021. This is a large sunm foi
the State to pay twice. Some of thest
have not only been paid, but paid in
gold. Are these statements of this
committee true or false, and upor
whom does the responsibility fall
The committee say distinctly and witla
very lhttle courtesy, that the responsi
bility rests on the State Treasurer.
It is now in order for the Union.
Berald to prove that the conmmittee.
are in the wrong, and have grievousl
assailed the State Treasurer. We hmopt
that this task will not be too munch fmi
it. li '.he committee have malicious'
wronged Mr. Cardoza, it deserves th<
public condemnation ; and if not. tia
State Treasurer has greatly wronged
suffering people.-Phak'nx.

SOUTH CARILTNA AN1 THE NEW FORCE
uti.LL--vlEWS of (;OE. *ii.ml EIR
LUN S oRf;AN.
The proposition to clothe the Presi.
dent with power to declarte martial
law in States where civil coinmotiou
threatens State authority, excites the
usual amount of discussion throughout
the country. We do not propose to
discuss the proposition on its mrits,
but what we propose to do is sniply
to say what intere.t South Carolua
has in the matter. and what IcCessity
there is for its adoption so far as .,ie
is concerned. The measure prvpoSd
has a clear reference to the Southe
States, as affording by their condition
the occasion for its discussion. South
Carolina is one of them, and is ex
peeted to speak her mind. We do
not pretend to utter her voice, but to
say what we think is the prevailing
idea on tl-e subject.
We do not need the passaqe of
such an act of Congres s. We believe
the people of this State, "without dis
tinction of race or color," have made
up their minds that what they need is
public servants of intelligenee. expe-1
rience and honesty, and as they have
got the votes and can have it their
own way, that is the beginning and
end of all our tronbles. Under such
circumstances we have nothing to fe.,r.
With that idea fixed among the people
no bayouets are needed to inairtain
order. Our people have conie to the
conclusion that they have got to take
care of themselves. '[hey have been
sick and miserable, and were thankful
to Uncle Saul or his pills and iui
ing; but now they feel better, and
their appetite has cone. and they
politely thank the doctor for hi., kind
ness, and bid him good day. Under
such circumstane-s we e:i look coolly
and dispassionately ou this diseun-ion.
We do not need martial law, but if
we did we can manufacture for our
selves excellent home-made martial
law.- Unon-lkrald.
