The Rev. Mr. Frothingham has de

An act of the last Congress permits
the sender.of a newspaper through
the mails.p rint.or impress his name
or card on the wrapper; but prohibits
the writingqf anything on -either the
newspaper or wrapper, except the ad
dress of Te person to whom the paper
is sent. This is worth kr.owing.
In England people who refuse to
have their eildren vaccinated are
put into prison and welceomed with
torchlight pro.cessions when they come
out. Every Englishwman claims the
right forifis children to have small
pox as g enteed by Magna Charta.
Two hndred lorses are in course
of trainif at the New York stables
for the sp6ng races. This number is
to be lasly reinforced by Southern
stables. .,Jerome Park. it is said, will
witness alarger number of horses at
the approaching races than ever be

If twe6ty-seven inches of snow give
three incfies of water, how much milk
will a cow give when fed upon turnip?
Multiply the flakes by the hairs on
the cow's tail, then divide the pro
duct by a turnip, add a pound of chalk,
multiply the whole by the pump, and
the total will be the answer.
"Oh ! vour nose is as cold as ice,"
a Boston father thought he hea7d his
daughter exclaim the other evening
as he was reading in the next room.
He walked in for explanation, but the
young fellow was at one end of the
sofa and the girl at the other, while
both looked so innocent and uncon
scious that the old gentleman con
eluded that his ears had deceived him,
and so retired from the scene without
a word.
BUiED ALIVE.-Lindsay Griffin,
of Mink Trap, met with an almost fatal
accident last, week. *His well had be
come foul from some. cause and he
went down in it to clean it out. When ]
at the bottom of the well the walls
caved in and completely buried him.
In this grave he remained for five
hours and was then taken out safe
and sound with searcely a bruise.
This is the second time the same well
has caved in:. Last year a colored
man was buried in it and was rescued
after twelve hours of hard work.

been made the subject of a speculation

formed in that city for the purpose of

been raised from seed in the vicinity
of that cit0, which are now four and

a progress. The cost of grounds and

The National Grange.
We copy from the New York Daily
~ulletin the following editorial in re
rd to the railroad action taken by
1e National Grange at its recent
~ssion. We suppose the Bulletin a
nows whereof it speaks. One thing
very plain, the Grangers have a
gitiate work in all that relates to e
ariculture, and they should not go 1
yond this.

awaM- vwe in -annual session at Char
lteif South Carolina, last week.
Many of the leading men of the or- t
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- t
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 1
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 t
steel-track freight railroad from New I
York to Missouri," was also endorsed
-the endorsement meaning, if it
means anything, that Congress should
put the public credit at the service of
the astute and enterprising gentlemen
who, with a persistency that is posi- 2
tively heroic, are urging the project as
a sort of patent solution of the various
vexed questions pertaining to the1
cheap transportation problem.
Remembering -how non-affiliation
with railroad schemes, railroad kings 1
and railroad corporations was one of 9
the cardinal principles proclaimed by 1
the Grangers when Grangensm was
in its cradle, one can realize what a t
thorough surrender it has made at t
Charleston. Possibly "some enemy
has done this thing." The surrender
may have been performed unconscious

thetic applied by some crafty emissary.
say of wicked Tom Scott, who must
have wormed himself into the conven.
tion as if to steal away its brains. r
Clearly, the rustic confidence charac
teristic of the farmer class and the
1wellers among green fields has some
how been cruelly abused, or it would
ever have committed itself to pro- f
position, which are preposterously in 0
1onflict with those that every good ,
4ranger has been proclaiming from
he housetops and corners of the
treets, these three or four years past. p
Be that the true theory or not as to t
,he secret influences at work, certain c
it is, never was a case of deliberate
elf-stultification so picturesquely per

The National Grange proposes to 9
peak and act for some twenty-two r

ire supposed to have an aggregate ;
3onstituency of a million and a half.

phenomena of the kind will await e
with some curiosity to see whether a
the main body of the army are going b

ing themselves about the reason why.
Legislative.
The bill to amend the election law ~
das received its second reading. I
;As the bill originated it contained
a section of redistricting the State,
ut a separate bill for that purpose t
seing pending, that section was strick
m out. The bill, as it passed, makes E
the following amendments: The State ~
lections are to be held on the first
Iresday after the first Monday in, No
reinber every second year. The Gov- 1
raor is to appoint, immediately after I
:e act, two managers of election for I
sach county, to hold office for two
rears; and the managers of election (
re to appoint three judges of election f
or each polling place in the~ county.

onstabile are oree o take place on

The bill to amend the State civil

upply a defect in the original law,
ias received its second reading, and is
s follows:
"It shall not be lawful for any com
non carriers, or any party or parties
Pgaged in any business, calling or
ursuit, for the carrying on of which
license or charter is required by any
aw, municipal, State or Federal, or by

iust remain in session still longer.
Where Rests the Blame?
The report of the Joint Special
Jonmitttee appointed by the Legisla
ure to investigate the funding of the
ionds, under the Act known as the.
onsolidation Act, is a very grave
paper. It is a question merely of fact.
f the facts are as this report states
hem to be, it would seem a matter of
;reat importance to the public inter
st that some cognizance -of them
hould 'be taken by the Legislature.
he report states that $978,000 of the
2473,385.93, funded in bonds under
hie Act, have been declared, by the
nanimnous vote-of the Senate, impro
erly funded. Is that so ? Is the re
ort true in this particular, and if
rue, is there no way to save the people
rom an unj ast debt of nearly $1,000,
00 ? And who is responsible for the
unding- of these doubtful bonds?
The -report shows that a lai'ge
mount of coupons, which have ma
cared and been paid, ought to have
een canceled, are* also funded, and
~elares it to be a fraud on the State.
t specifies-the elass, value and dates
f these coupons, and-points out four
lasses maturing and paid at four
everal dates, all of which have been
nded, and which amount to the sum
f $454,021. This, is a large sum for
be State to pay twice. Some of these
ave not only been paid, but paid in
od. Are these statements of this
ommittee true or false, and upon
rhom does the responsibility fall?
he committee say- distinctly and with
cry little.-courtesy, that the responsi
ility rests oni the State Treasurer.
It is now in order for the Onion
lerald to prove that ' thi' committee
re in the wrong, and have grievously
ssailed 'the -State Treasurer. We hope'
fat this task -will not be too much for
.If the committee have:ma.liciously
ronged Mr. Cardoza, it. deserves the
ublic condemnation ; and if not, the'

SOUTH CAROLINA AND THE NEW FORCE
BIL--VIEWS OF GOV. CIIAMBER
LAIN' S ORGAN.
The proposition to clothe the Presi
dent with power to declare martial
law in States where civil commotion
threatens State authority, excites the
usual amount of discussion throughout
the country. We do not propose to
discuss the proposition on its merits,
but what we propose.to do is simply
to say what interest South Carolina
has in the matter, and what necessity
there is for its adoption so far as she
is concerned. The measure proposed
has a clear reference to the Southern
States, as affording by their condition
the occasion for its discussion. South
Carolina is one of them, and is ex
pected 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 passage of
such an act of Congress. 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 intelligence, expe
rie6ce 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 troubles. Under such
circumstances we have nothing to fear.
With that idea fixed among the people
no bayonets are needed to maintain
order. Our people have come to the
conclusion that they have got to take
care of themselves. They have been
sick and miserable, and were thankful
to Uncle Sam for his pills and nurs.
ing; but now they feel better, and
their appetite has come, and they
politely thank the doctor for his kind
ness, and bid him good day. Under
such circumstances we can look coolly
and dispassionately on this discussion.
We do not need martial law, but if
we did we can manufacture for our
selves excellent home-made martial
law.- Union-Berald.

THE SUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY FOR 1875.
The approach of the P'residential dection gives '
unusual importance to the events and develop
men.ts of 15. We shall endeavor to describe
te fully. faith fully and fearlessly.
TlE WEEKLY SUN has now attained a cir -
culation of over seventy thousand1 copies. Its
readers are found in every State and Territory,
and its quality Is well known to the public. We
shall not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the .
old standard, but to improve and add to its
variety and power.
TfE WEEKLYX SUN will continue to be a
thorough newspaper. All the news of the day
will be found mn it, condensed when unimpor
tant, at full length when of moment, and al ways,
we trust, treated in a clear, interesting and mn
structive manner.
It is our aim to make the WEEK LY SULN theC
est fasmily newspaper in the world. It will be hi
full of entertaining and appropriate reading of lis
every sort, but will print nothing to offend the at
most scrupulous and delicate taste. It will al
ways contain the most interesting stories and o1
romances of the day, carefully selected and pe
legibly printed. g
The Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature in the WEEK LY SUS, and its artIcles.
will always be found fresh and useful to the ei
rarmer. Di
The number ofimen iudependent in politics is
ineressing. and the WEIEK LY SUN Is thei -
per especially. .It belongs to no party and obeys'-'
no dictation, contending for principle, and for,
the election of the best men. It exposes theI
corruption that disgraces the country and threat
ens the overthrow of republican institutions. It
has no fear of knaves, and seeks no favors from . -
