Representation in tho S tato Con
vention.
We bavo noticed recontly several articles i
OUT exobanges on tho subject of increased iv j
reticulation of tho counties in thc Stato Cor
vention. Wo havo no doubt but thal a larg?
convention would bo moro representativo of th
wisliCB of the people and give greater sitisfaclioi
This, however, docs not meet what, in our opi
nion, is needed. The basis of representation
wrong. The representation is based, not upc
tho numerical Btrcngth of the Democracy i
each county, but upon thc numbers of thc who
population, both Democrat and Republioat
A largo county, for instance Richland, with
Democratic population of not exceeding 10,f)2
has six representatives; while Piokcns, wit h tl
same population, has only three. Again, Sun
tor has a popula!ion of 0,073 Democrats ar
gets fivo members to Mic Stato Convelido:
whilo Oconco, with ll,9?'? Democratic popuh
lion, gets only three. This is nol fair. Tl
basis of representation should not bo upon tl
numerical strength of Ihi whole body of tl
people of tho county, but upon Hie strength <
the party in each county. Thc manner of rep
rcscntation now has had tho clTccl hcrolofoi
of allowing the counties in tho lower counti
to nominate tho officers and tho up country ll
pleasure of cloding them. This ought not i
to bc. Tho Stato Executive Committee, whi
engaged in thc work of increasing tho repri
sontiilion, should chango tho basis from tl
numerical strength of eaoh county lo tl
strength of tho Democracy in each count
With tho present make up of conventions ll
only interest tho up country has in thc matter
the pleasure of a volo for tho names of tho lc
counties. Tho low counties havo tho pow
based on this unjust representation and usc il.

Tho House of Representatives
at Washington.
For Fpvorul ?rocks tho only business of
importance trnneaotcd hy tho IIouso of Rep
resentativos has been tho consid?ration of
tho contested oleotion oarcs. Thero woro
quito n number of these. Tho first was that
of Lynch, colored, against Chalmers, from
Mississippi. -Tho Democrats woro content to
cast thoir votes for Chalmers, tho Republicans
by thoir majority scating Lynch. Sinoo,
Chalmors lins joined tho Independents in
Mississippi and id n candidato for ro-olection
on that lino; or in other words, ho has om?
braced tho hand that turned him out of Con
gress.
Tho second case-that of Mackoy against
O'Connor, in which Mr. Dibble, was tho sit
ting member-was considered by tho Demo
crats of the IIouso ne a moro sorioua matter.
With thom, and wo hopo with tho community,
Mnokoy wa? without credit or character.
Charges woro mado in tho IIouso that ho had
manufactured ovidonco nod garbled and
changed favorably to himself tho ovidenoo
on which ho dui mod tho seat of Mr. Dibble.
Tho Democrats, without oxprcsdng any
opiuion ns to tho truth of these oharges,
asked that they bo inquired into. This
cours o was not ngrccablo to tho Republicans,
who insisted that Mr. Dibble should go.
Thereupon tho Democrats commenced to usc
tho weapons of defense, dilatory motions, thc
only defense of thc minority against wrong und
outrage. With theso woapons tho Republi
cans woro poworloss, and Mr. Mackey was
kept out of tho scat bc claimed. Truo tc
their revolutionary instincts, tho Republicans
woro not without n means of rcliof in thc
premisos. Tho rules of the House, adopted
long before, must bo changed to effect theil
purposo. Tho Speaker, Koifcr, n willing
tool, ruled iu thoir favor, tho rules wen
changed, Mr. Dibble wns ousted nnd Mnokoj
scaled. This courso of tho majority wai
tyrannical and shows that neither tho rules o
tho IIouso nor tho usages of tho country nn
respected by tho Republicans when thoi
wishes or interests aro to bo consulted.
Tho next caso was that of Lowe ngains
Whoclor, of A lnbama. Tho Republican
having swept tho rules of thc IIouso out o
the way, which permitted dilatory motions
scated Lo wo by tho usual majority.

says:

A GLANCE AT TUE FIELDS IN CAROLINA-THE
EFFECTS OF TUB COOL WBATIIKR.
Tho cool H'oathor of tho pant two wooka
hus had a had cfleet on cotton in sandy soil.
In some places it has died out to a vory thin
j stand. Colton on red land has not boon
injured ozcopt that its growth has boon
retarded.-Newben't/ Herald.
Tho cool weather is tolling soriously on
tho ootton. Qond stands woro obtained, but
tho plant is djing, and ninny of tho farmers
aro gotting uneasy. Tho dnniago to tho
cotton on somo plantations n fow milos above
this placo by tho hail on Tuesday of lust wcok
was so sorious that tho ownors found it
necessary to plant the second timo.-Ander
son Intelligencer.
Tho most cheering reports concerning tho
small grain orops continue to bo rcooi'vod
from all section* of tho oounty. Thus far
no sorious calamity has bofnllcn tho wheat.
There is moro or less complaint of rust,
which, however, lins only affected tho bindo.
Harvesting of tho ont orop lins already com
' monocd, and tho yield of both theso cereals
promises to bo unprocodontod in this section
I sinco 1840, when, ns wo fear was too much
tho caso last fall, tho farmers wore driven
bo necessity to plant full grain crops. The
outlook for ootton is not encouraging. Tho
cool weather prevailing throughout this
month has had a deleterious effect on tho
young piont, notably on groy nnd snndy
soils, necessitating much replanting.- York*
ville Enquirer.
Tho oold woathor of lost wcok was a bitter
pill for tho cotton, but moro favorable
weather bas onco moro sot in and ootton is
booming again. In tho course of a fow days
wo will bc iu tho midst oi oat cutting season.
Tho hoods oro begining to turn to the golden
color, and a little moro sun and warm

Stands of oom and cotton are better than

woather has caused tho seed to germinate
und wo now hr.vo good stands. Labsr is

Thcro is complaint in the county ol t\ very

From nil pnrls nf thc county wo hear that
tho unreasonably severe cold weather is

either dying out or looks so sick and un

generally conceded that tho weather thus

known for years.- Union Times.
The stands of colton have boen considerably

Tho senson for setting potato "draws" has

Fruit Evaporation.
Among tho many recent im
provements in thc lino of preserv
ing food? there is nono which prom
ises lo add moro to the roventio of
tiio farmer and gardener than tho
evaporation of fi uit. All of us
can rcmemher what a laborious,
unsatisfactory and unprofitable
process drying apples, pumpkins
and herries used to bej what hard
work it involved, and in what a
conglomeration of dirt and spoilt
fruit it resulted. It was at host a
had joh, and tho best (hat could bc
said in its favor was that it fur
nished an excuse for an occasional
paring-bee, and a poor substitute
for green fruit in a season when
nothing better could bo had. No
body ever got tilly cents a day
drying apples or pumpkins to sell,
nobody ever bought them who, in
our judgment, didn't get tho worst
of the bargain. Hut tho invention
of evaporators, by tho help of
which fruits of nearly all kinds arc
in a few hours put into a condition
in which they will keep lor months
and retain all their original excel
lences, has worked a revolution in
fruit preservation, and not only
made it practicable to savo a
great many farm products which
formerly went to waste, but put
them within tho reach of nearly
everybody at all seasons of thc
year.
Of the hench?s of this new pro
cess, J. G Hen nett says in an in
teresting paper, in the Kural New
Yorker:
In a properly evaporated fruit
there is no loss of pleasant or val
uable properlies, but an actual in
crease of fruit sugar, from thc fact
that evaporation is essentially a
ripening process, t lie development
of sugar ranging from 0 to 25 per
cent, in diiloront fruits as deter
mined hy chemical analysis. In
stead ot a relrograde transition
awaiting our really unsurpassed
fruits, berries and vegetables al
their full stage of ripening, wc have
in the uso of thc evaporator a
culmination of the same organic
forces, and in a few hours thc
juices, which heretofore formed
and perfected tho fruit (bul which
after this hasten decay,) arc
quickly matured, and thc maxi
mum development of sugar se
cured and the water evaporated
the change, being analogous to thc
transilion of the grape to thc
sweeter ralbin or thc acid greei
apple to ripeness, with correspond
ing delicacy. Thc cell structure
remains unbroken and the articles
when placed in the juvotiatinf.
bath ot fresh water return to theil
original form, color and consist
I ency. Thus, a few ounces o
j pumpkin flour make sauce o
custard at all seasons and rareh
can any ono distinguish a pic or J
pudding of evaporated apple
from that made from fresh frui
by sight or taste. The su mme
squash becomes an all-the-yea
vegetable for every climate an?
market on thc globe. A larg
load of pumpkins may be drivel
in from thc field in thc morning
and thc next* morning shipped t
(he antipodes, in a barrel. Th
sweet potato which perishes s
rapidly as to bc unknown to mos
of the markets of the world, is rc
duccd to an imperishable cond
lion hy pneumatic ?vaporai i01
and will soon becom a familia
luxury on thc table:; and market
of the world and at al! seasons c
thc year alike. Ils slices, place
in cold water and brought lo a bo
for thirty minutes, arc ready fe
thc table ol' frying pan, and are i
no respect inferior to thc origin!
vegelablc. The Northern potal<
like the turnip, improves by evap<
ration, and tor spring uso, for shi
stores and for exportation, leave
its original out of sight, cccupit
