The citizens of Greenville are al ready moving in the matter of pro viding homes for visitors, and all who desire to attend should drop a po'stal to Mr. A. H. Jenkins, Secre tary, Greenville, by the 10th of July, stating the number expected to attend from each household, so that homes may be provided for them.

County Agricultural Societies, and Pomona Granges, are requested to furnish each a representation; where no Pomona Grange exists Subordinate Granges will send up delegates ; so that all sections of the State may be represented. The State Agricultural Society of Georgia will be represented The occasion at Greenville will be specially interesting, and as the crops will then be "laid by" much pleasure and matters of great in terest are in store for visitors to the Mountain City. Col. Cash A cquitte d. The second trial of Col. E. B. C. Cash, of Chesterfld County, for the killing of Col. Win. Shannon, of Camden, in a duel the 5th of July, 1880, came off at Darlington last week. The charge was mur der. The testimony for the State was about the same as on the pre vious trial when the jury failed to agree. In the trial last week Col. Cash went on the stand and gave a full statement of the duel, its causes and attendant circumstances. The State wvas represented by Solicitor [Dargan, the defense by Col. R. C. Watts, of Laurens, and Gen. Prince, of Cheraw. The jury, after a short consultation, brought in a verdict of not guilty. In view of the fact that duels had heretofore been fought in South Carolins without prosecution and even without interference, the ac quittal of Col. Cash will give gene ral satisfaction. It was hardly right that he should be made ai scapegoat;i but his prosecution, and the new law on dueling which has been passed since the Cash Shannon duel was fought, are a fair and timely warning, and he who engages in a duel after tbis rns a very cnsiderable risk. Normia institates. A Normal School for colored achers will be held in Columbia eginning July 5th and ending ily 29th. The course of instrne ion will includc all the branches lught in the public schools of the tate, together with music and rniug. The Institute will be ader the supervision of Prof. Ii. >.

The people of Edgefield Countj long the Saluda River are mani esting considerable interest in th( ish question. They have had meet ngs and appointed committees foi he purpose of securing a strict en orcement of the fish laws. It iE aid that there are several dami ong the Saluda that obstruct th( nigration of fish. The law re, juires owners of dams to keep oper fish.way so that fish can readil3 >ass'up and down streams, whici ould-result in an equal distribu ion of fish along the streams.

Our WaIslAington Letter. WASLi_iTo.N, D. C., JuL)e 22. 1881. Secretary Window has stopped the I investig,ation in his Department, abol- i ished the office which was being in- J quired into, sent one of the implicated c persons to Europe on an official mis- i sion, and -pocketed the report of the d investigating Committee. I submit i C that, af-er evidence was made public which would have driven several Treas-, C ury offi-ials out of any private busi- r ness hruse, this course of the Secre- a tary is indefeu.ible. If the published , evidence was true, it was not fair to make one of the guilty officials a scape s goat for all. And if it was true, the ' report should be wade public as a viD- s dication of all. This as a matter of r justice between the alleged culprits. f The rights of the public are equally clear, and are of much greater iwpor- 3 tauce. The Secretary should publish the report because it is not his. but the public's. It is now understood there will be no more Treasury inves tigations. The other investigation-the inter minable star route swindle-put on a new face yesterday. The autherities will not put the papers before the t Grand Jury until September. Wheth er this means that the alleged offend ers are to be condoned, after the man ner of the Treasury robbers mentioned above, or that there is not such a mine of fraud as was prophesied, nono but the Attorney-General, and Postmaster General know. In either event, this shutting down of active investigation t in the only two Departments in which investigations have been commenced, is sufficient, and will cause comment everywhere. I The new Commissioner of Pensions, i Col. V. W. Dudley, of Indiana, sends t word on in advance of his coming, or is reported to have sent it, that he will cause the removal of every Demo crat in his Bureau. This would be an absurd violation of what is known 1 as Civil Service reform, for all these Democrats-there arm about fifty of thew-were selected after what is known as a competitive examination, that is, among the persons examined fur places in the Bureau, daring the term of Mr. Hayes, it was found that each of these fifty Democrats was of higher ability than the other persons examined with them. To turn them out now, when experience has demon strated and increased their efficiency, Sand put in their places men who have -no-elaim for office except Republican Iism, would, as I said, be absurd. That it would be unjust, goes without say ing. I hope for better things of the gallant and crippled soldier, who will, Safter July 1st, pass upon the claims of both Democrats and Republicans who served their country with him. On Monday last the Washington amonument was exactly 200 feet in height, thirty feet having been added to it during this season. Before cold Sweather sets in it is thought 40 feet more will be added.

DEM. fFurnian University. eThe following statement from the Board of Trustees of Furman Univer lsity will be read with regret by the friends of the institution in this com munity: GREENYILLE, S. C., June 16. The Board of Trustees of Furman SUniversity deem it proper to make a statement to the public as follows: That for the past two years the in stitution has been conducted by a corps of professors under a temporary arrangement which expired with the session just closed. That under this arrangement it was expected to realize a sufficient amount from the payment of bonds and inter est to continue the exercises of the institution as heretofore, and that this expectation has not been realized. ~'That at the expiration of the two years, the Board finds that the insti tution has become indebted to the Professors within that period in the sum of $5,000. - That the income to be derived from productive investments of the endow ment fund will not amount to more Sthan $2,000 per annum. -Under these circumstances, the Board does not feel authorized to re r new the arrangement with the profes sors, nor has the way seemed clear to the Board for the immediate reopen -. lug of the University ; and therefore the exercises will not be resumed at the usual time, but arrangements are in contemplation for sEcuring such a ~faculty as will put the institution in Sfirst-rate working order so soon as the means have been supplied by the friends of the University. The Board unanimously urge the speedy payment of the bonds, regard ing the obligation of the bondsmen as Ssacred, and the future of the Univer jsity as dependent in large measure upon the fulfillment of these obliga tions.

The drinking and loafing that were formerly done are now con spicuously absent. Men now come to town, get their supplies, and then g o home.
