As stated.]ast week, Senator Bay ard, of Delaware, was elected Presi dent of the Senate the 10th. The three new Republican Senators .era sworn in tho 11th. The Sen ate then stood 36 Democrats, 36 Republicans-4nd Mahone, of Vir ginia, and Davis, of Illinois. Ma bone, though elected as a Readjus tc Dbeocrat, has gone over to the Republicans body and soul. Davis, though claiming to be an Indepen dent Democrat, has proved himself -,o be perfectly unreliable. The Republicans the 13th nomi nated Davis as President pro tem pre in place of Bayard. Had Da vis voted against himself there would have been a tie-87 to 37; bht theallurements of office and the very remote possibility of succeed ing to the Presidency through the ddath of Arthur proved too strong fothe Independent." When Bay ard's name was called he declined to vote, saying "I have never ob tained office by my vote, and shall never retain it by that means." The vote stood 36 to 34, and Davis tecame President pro tempore. The Democrats are very well pleased with the eletion. It leaves all their members on the ftoor, and ulbo reBisies them from a great deal oftresponsibility. The Republicans have no assurance that Davis will act to suitr them. Tremble in Ireland. Chas. S. Parnell, Irish agitator and member of Parliament, was ar Tested.in Dublin at the instance of Prime Minister Gladstone the 12th, the cbarges being inciting tenants to refuse to pay rents and intimi dating tenants to refuse to take the benefits of the new Land Act. *John Dillon, an Irish member of Parliament, was arrested the 15th. .Many other arrests were made, among them 'O'Brien, editor of *United lreland, on the charge of inciting .resistance to the Land Act,. -Intense excitement prevailed throughout Dublin and the whole of Ireland. Proclamations were posted in the Irish cities by the English government forbidding meetings. At Limerick the procla -eations were torn down, and a meeting was held. The soldiers attempted to disperse the meeting, *when a riot occurred. The soldiers fred into the crowd, killing one Sperson and wounding a number of othere. *The English government is bear ing down upon Ireland with an iron hand, and seems determined tolering the people to desperation or to abject_submission. Yorktown winds up the "Centen nial" business, and it is a matter of congratulfttion that it is so. There has been enough of it. A large amount of money has been useless ly spent ; and the quantities of buncombe that has been indicted upon a suffering people is fearful to thinkof. It is well enough to be proud of the bravery and glorious achievements of our ancestors ; but why flaunt these victories at this late day in the faces of a friendly nation ? It does not make Ameri cans more patriotic ; it must be mnortifiying, or at least annoying to our English friends-not the sim ple recollection of defeat, but the persistent and ostentatious remind er of it. There is something in delicate and vulgar about the whole thing in this age when the whole civilized world forms a brotherhood of nations, all living in peace, har mony and good will. Judges differ as well as doctors As stated last week Judge Mackey rules that an unloaded pistol is not' a deadly weapon within the mean ing of the law. We see from the Hampton Guar dian that Judge Kershaw has ruled that if apersonucarries a pistol in his pocket with only a portion of it visible it is a violation of the law. Lynch Law in Orangeburg. Jack Williams, the negro who was convicted at Orangebnrg last week for outraging a 12 year old white girl, was taken out of the p.il the night of the 12th by a crowd of citizens and hanged. There had been threats of lynching before the trial ; but as there seemed to be no doubt that the negro would be con victed and hanged according to raw it was agreed to let the law take its course. He was convicted by the jury ; but was recommended to mercy, and this recommendation compelled the judge to sentence him to the penitentiary for life. He was accordingly sentenced the 12th, and would have been carried to the penitentiary the 13th but for the intervention of the lynchers. Cotton, Red Oats and Cow Peas. These are the products to which our farmers should devote their special attention ; they are perfect ly adapted to this soil and climate, and yield abundantly. There is enough cotton planted now. More attention should be paid to the other two products. Red oats grow luxuriantly here ; and nothing makes better food. The cow peas should be planted partly for stock food and partly for a fertilizer. After enough is gathered for seed and some for stock food the vines should be ploughed under and red oats sowed over the fields. We do not think it pays to plant upland corn. Bat it will pay to plant more oats and more cow peas. Dueling has not played out in the State of Virginia by any means. The present campaign has caused two or three already ; and several attempts have been frustrated by the officers of law. The latest duel was fought the 14th near Richmond between Hon. Geo. D. Wise, Dem ocrat, and Capt. H. H. Riddleber ger, Readjuster. After three rounds vere fired without effect the parties made friends. Riddleberger is Ma bone's candidat0 for Sergeant at Arms of the U. S. Senate. Richard F. Bierne, Democrat, editor of the Richmond State, and Riddleberger went out to fight the 15th, but were arrested and put under bonds before reaching the field. Senator Mahone was arrested the 15th, with a view to preventing a duel between him and Gen. Jubal Early. Mahone denied that a duel was contemplated, and was released on his personal bond. The Laurensville Berald has in formation that the Clyde Syndicate is willing to take the proposed Greenwood & Lrns R othe hands of the Stockholders, and complete and equip it. The Berald thinks that this arrangement should be made for two reasons: 1st, the Stockholders are not able to com plete and equip the road thorough ly ; 2ndly, if they could complete it and equip it they could not run it successfully in comj tition with the Clyde Syndicate, which controls the lines at both ends of the pro posed road. The Berald is undoubtedly cor ret ; and if the Clydes are willing to take the road and finish itup thoroughly the Stockholders should make terms with them at once. If the road be built it is bound to fall into the hands of the Syndicate, sooner or later. Guiteau, the assassin, was ar raigned in the District Court at Washington the 14th. His brother in-law, Mr. Schoville, of Chicago, appeared for him. Guiteau pleaded not guilty. His Counsel stated that the defense would be imsanity. He also expected to show that death did not.result from the wound, but from the malpractice of the Presi dent's principal physician. Objection will be made to the jurisdiction, on the ground that the offense charged was not completed in the District of Columbia, the President having died in Monmouth County, New Jersey. The question of jurisdiction will be argued the 30th instant ; and if that question be decided against the defendant the trial will begin the 7th of November. The South Carolina Militia is represented at Yorktown by two companies from Charleston, two from Columbia, two from Green ville, one from Abbeville, one from Aiken, one from Sumter and one from Winnsboro', all under the ommand of Col. Hugh S. Thomp son. We are sorry to see some of our tate exchanges copying "Clara The Atlanta Exposition Opened well, and is moving along very satisfactorily. The exhibits are numerous and varied. The at tendance is large. The reports in regard to exorbitant charges for board have been greatly exaggera ted. Board can be obtained at usual rates, and none need stay away from a fear of impositions. The Exposition is well worth see ing. It is a wonderful revelation of the industries, resources, enter prise and wealth of our Southern country, and the like of is may not be seen again. The Clyde Syndicate has added another railroad to their combina tion ; the Atlantic, Tennessee & Ohio R. R., running between Char lotte and Statesville, was leased the 14th for 99 years, at an annual rental of $25,000. Hannibal Hamlin, of Maine, has been appointed and confirmed Min ister to Spain. State News. Mr. Edward Hix, of Laurens, died the 11th instant at the age of 89. A negro was sentenced at Or angeburg last week to be banged the 16th of December for arson. The Saluda Argus contains the following good advice, evidently in tended for the editors of the Press & Banner : "Get married." The Abbeville Press & Banner says that Ir. G. 34. Iodges, of Hodges, will make this year 13 bales of cotton with one horse. The State Board of Equalization has assessed the Columbia & Green ville R. B. at $11,000 per mile, the highest of any it the State e4oept the Air Line, which is fixed at $12, 000. The Laurens R. R. is assess ed at $4,000. Wa5hington Letter. From our Regular Correspondent. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 13, 1881. The election of Senator Bayard to the Presidency of the Senate was very distasteful to the Republicans. Not that tbe Delaware Senator, bearing a name 4isdagu~ished and honored in our natiopal politiies for~ three genere tions, is personally objectionable, be cause be is very popular. Mr. J3ay ard is a man of fine ability high per. sona! ebaracter and a fair sample of the dignified cultivated gentleman who graced the chair of the Senate as he would that of the Chief Executive of the country. But diuring the war he was earnestly opposed to the dominant party and some of its meas res, and is in consequence to this day bitterly denounced as a "rebel." It is pretty hard work for those who do not yet acknowledge that the war is over, to reconcile themselves to the elevation of one of that class whom they were pleased to call "cop per-heads" to a position in the direct line of succession to the Presidency. When these things are understood the desperate opposition to Mr. Bay. ard is explained. He was the candi date of his party last spring before the Senate adjourned, but Vice-President Arthur refused to vacate the chair to give an opportunity for his election, though he would have done so had Senator Harris, of T'ennesee, an ex Confederete, been the nominee. Senator Edmunds is doing all the talking on the Republican side of the Senate so far, and is giving fresh evi dence of his aptness at special plead. ing. It was amusing to hear his emotional tone of voice as he stood up ad argued against the disfranchise ment of New York and Rhode Island in the vote for presiding officer. And when this failed to produce the desired effect he sneeringly taunted the Democrats with taking advantage f assassination to obtain power. But smart as he is all his efforts lost in effect when it was remembered that e would have been just as cute and earnest on the very opposite side of the question had the interests of his party required it. Senator Vest re minded Edmunds that four States had t ore time been entirely disfran chised and their representatives kept utside the chamber for days and days t his own motion and the act of his own party ; that the Democrats were ot taking advantage of assassination because their majority dated back to the foolish action of two Republican Senators from New York, when the same candidate they now presented was nominated, and would have been elected and this extra session ren dered unnecessary but for the course of a Republican Vice-President. When e concluded this thrust with a ref erence to Mr. Conkling's speech abont the rights of the "constitutional ma jority" there did not seem to be much left of the other side of the argument and Edmunds rather gave up the sponge. The scheme to oust Senator Bayard from the chsir, by the election f David Davis, was a last resort of the Republicans, not so much for the good Davis might do them in the chair as for the purpose of obtaining his indirect aid in securing the rest of the organization. By placing him in the chair and thereby rendering it probable that he would withhold his vote the tie is broken in favor of that side. Many Democrats have beld that Davis should have been captured by making him their candidate. Cabinet talk still prevails and it s not improbable that by the time thi reaches on the new Cabinet will but he denies that the President has communicated with him on the sub ject. Mr. Conkling, who was here some days, has now returncd to New York, suffering from his old malarial troubles and looking, as he was, a sick wan. HIe had several interviews with the President and it is generally believed here that he could have told who would constitute the new Cabinet if he had pleased, as he doubtless was consulted concerning it. Gen. Grant is understood to be very bitter against the anti-stalwart element and to advocate a general slaughter. Mr. Coukling is reported as equally bitter but more politic. To illustrate how unforeseen events change personal fortunes, as well as to show what the Grant influence is likely to be with the new Administra tion, I will mention one of the changes said to be contemplated. Quartermaster General Meigs is to be retired, being over age, and Col. In galls, a friend-of Grant, finally settled in the place. President Garfield in tended to appoint Col. Rockwell to this position, but Guiteau's fatal bul let came before it was done. After Gen. Garfield's death Mrs. Garfield wrote to President Arthur requesting that this wish of her dead husband might be fulfilled, as a reward to his faithful friend. But a letter from Gen. Grant also came urging the ap pointment of Ingalls, which he said be had long wished, and the latter they say is to prevail. An Ex-Governor at the Bar.. Franklin J. Moses, ex-Governor of South Carolina, was arraigned yester day in the General Sessions to plead to two indictments charging him with obtaining money by false pretences from Major William L. Hall of 4 East Tenth street, and Dr. Nathan Bozeman of 296 Fifth avenue. Ex Gov. Moses is a tall, thin, and melan choly-looking man, about 35 years of age. He wears his black hair and beard long and unkempt. iis style of dress is almost ministerial in its severity of hue and out. He was not accompained by counsel. He pleaded not guilty, and Judge Gildersleeve re manded him to await trial. [New Jor1 Sun, 12th. Ex Governor Franklin J. Moses of South Carolina was taken on foot, yesterday, through the rain, and.with out an umbrella, from the City Prison to the General Sessions. Judge Gilder sleeve fixed his bail at $1,000. James Campbell, a liquor saloon keeper of 82 Centre street, became surety for Moses under the two indictments charging him with obtaining money by false .pretenGea from Major Wil liam L. Hall of 4 past Tenth street and Dr. Nathan Bozeman of Fifth avenue. ([Vew York Sun, 13th. A Wise Deacon. feacon Wilder, I want you to tell me how you kept yourself and1 family well the past season, when all the' rest of us have been sick so much, and have had the doctors visiting us so often.' 'Bro. Taylor, the answer is very easy. I used Hop Bitters in time ; kept my family well and saved the doctor bills. Three dollars worth of it kept us well and able to work all the time. T'll warrant it has cost you and the neighbors one to two hundred dollars apiece to keep sick the same time.' 'Deacon, I'll use your medicine hereafter.' GRAIN CORNERS ILEGAL.-CHI CAGO, October 12.-Judge Jamison of the Criminal Co4rt, delivered, in his charge to the grand jury to-day, emphatic utterances in regard to the gambling in grain, and declared that the laws in existence against such op erations must be enforced. F~oR THE HERALD. JIeart Hunger. BY L. B. A little maid with.unkempt hair, And features pale and thin, As she presses her cold feet, white and bare, On the marble steps of the mansion fair, And hungrily peers within, At a sumptnous feast of all that's rare, Spread out for the guests assembled there Is a sad, sad sight, Qn a winter's night. A prisoner locked in his lonely cell, Wearing his life away, With longings no mortal tongue can tell To wander once more o'er hill and del Under the ligh t of day, And visit the home where the loved ones dwell Is a pitiful picture, and might well Make the angels of light, Weep over the sight. But worse than these is a hungry heart, Fighting against its fate; Pining and writhing beneath the smart Of famine for loye and sympathy's art, That lifts life's heavy weight. There are some you pass in the busy mart. Thus slowly dying of a hungry heart. Only heaven's clear light, Can reveal this sight. Newberry, Oct. 12, 1881. eMarried, By Rev. E. T. Walker, October 10th, 1881, at Edgefield, Dr. GEO. C. DUGAs, of Augua ta, Ga., to Miss DouscHA PICKENs, daugh ter of ex-Gov. F. W. Pickens. Obituary. On the 1st day of Oct., 1881, Mrs. MAGGIE BOYD, the true, untiring and devoted wife of my brother, Mordecai J. Boyd, died sud denly at her home in Newberry, S. C., as is suposed of Congestion, aged 39 years. he death of this noble woman, wife and mother, is to those who knew her physical ly afflicted and now almost heart-broken usband, a dispensation too mysterious to admit of any human interpretation which can give consolation to the sorrowing. She was of strong, physical constitution, rugal, economical an?i persevering, and seemed eminently fitted to comfort her at flicted husband, and to provide as only a mother can for their four little childre n. But alas ! death came to that happy home without premonition and bore away the precious one from the happy circle, leaving the husband at the bedside of his dead wife almost alone-the children half suspecting that she was taking rest in sleep. Anxious eyes gaze on the bosom of the dark cloud overhanging that horne to see the "silver lining" said to fringe every cloud, but with ut avail. To try to comfort now seems a mockery, and the tears of sympathy and affection which flow like summer showers sem aridas he desenrt In mute silene Xew a~dwertisemeuts. Thespian Hail! ONE NIGHT ONLY !
