Tho Legislature will moot on nest Tuosduy and tho opinion seems to prevail generally that a abort session ia both wiso and practi cable. Wo know of but two mcasuroH which rcqoiro onrclol consideration-tho modifica tion nf tho fonoo law, if deemed practicable, and tho creation of a railroad commission. Our former Legislature lind many knotty questions boforo it and it tackled thom without tear or favor, If it erred in any tnoasui-f lot its errors bo corrected and giro it tho ruiso it is justly duo. Wo hardly bolio1 a moro progrossivo body ever as 1300"' .od in tho State than our former Logis* latero and wbilo its action on some measures is of doubtful wisdom and has received severe criticism, still on tho winde it deserves credit. It projected new measures on tho boliof they were wiso and generally tho ro nult has verified their opinion, but if they huvo erred practically the present body has tho power to correct their errors. Ilavo they erred on thc fenco law? As a Stato mensuro, wo think not, and even so far ns our county is concerned, wo believe tho ultimate effect of thc present law will provo beneficial to all sect ions. While this is our opinion, wc ure willing to accord lo our mountain populad >n their opinions mid to both allow and advocate such n modifica tion of the law us will permit stook lo ruo ut large above a linc to bc drawn West of Walhalla. Wo do not say this will bo tho host in thu end, but it will pacify a good citizenship and unify our population. Tho present year has been unpamllclled in natural productions. Wo had u summer of berries and grass and a full of mast of all kinds never boforo known. This has caused unusual dissatisfaction willi ibo fence law and to add to this stock has died out largely from diseases. Thc scarcity of hogs is at tributed to tho fence law, while in reality you can find very few pcoplo who have lost tiny hogs niter they were put up. Thc lenco law has nothing to do with tho scarcity of flock or ibo plontitudo of nat irai pasturage. While this is true, wo want io satisfy tho people and will favor any measure to give what they call relief above Walhalla? - "Wo will oppose any fence lino below Wul bulla und cannot say wo believe freo pastor ngc is beiicticiul in any part of tho Stale. Wo know strong efforts will bo made lo modify ibo fenco law and hope sumo Bohemo cnn bo adopted which will satisfy all sections. Petitions in this county aro being circulated to return to thu old lino below Walhalla and alco to adopt n new lino above. Wo want all sides hcuid nnd if general satisfaction cannot bo obtained, then wc hupu thc law Will bo loft as it stands. Thc other question of general interest is tho regulation of freight und passenger tnrills on our railroads, which is proposed by tho creation of u railroad commission simi lar to tho ono in Georgia. Wc have no doubt of tho wisdom of sumo mensuro of this kind and hope it will bo adopted, but wc aro in no wise influenced to ibis opinion hy ~-ih& interests et- Charleston. That eily once controlled theso roads and gnvo us higher freights, slower travel and less secure passage than tho present management. It now coin plains of what it neither offered nor gave, when to have given would huvo redounded to tho interest of tho ci'y and State. Wc think, however, tho people huvo an interest in these thoroughfares which should bc respected and thal it is neither fair nor right that tho rates of travel in this Stato should bo higher than in Georgia, nor higher than aro rcasonablo. Wo would liku to sec somo practical legislation on tho subject, looking to the public interests, without regard to Charleston or any oilier locality. If a board of three commissioners should bo croatcd wo want to seo men not of family importance, put of pratienl wisdom on it. Wo do not want tho ofliccs created for men, but men found to fill them when created, who bulb know nnd will perform their duties. Other matters may como boforo tho Lo gis laturo which wc will hereafter notice Look out for Winburn Uros., tho photogra phers. Tho Composition of Congross. Tho Senate of tho United States will in nil probability hayo a majority for tho Republi cans for tho noxi two years. This ia specially true if Ibo Hoad j osiers and Inde pendents arc counted on that sido. Tho IIoii9o of Koprosonialivos of tho '13th Congress will bo c imposed of 322 members. Tho Democrats will Imv? in this budy 191 membors, tho ll'publicans 120, ibo Inder pendents 1 and tho Greenbackcrs 1. Too Groen buck era have ll members of tho pres? ont House Now they huvo ono mon)ber and a Coroner cloe in South Carolina. This is all tho tidal wuvo brought them this yo.tr. In all probability thoy will have less two yours boneo, if thoy aro then hoard of at all. fTudgo Samuel Hull has beon elected to thu Supremo Court benoh in Georgia. Judge Hall is a nativo of Chester county, South Carolina. Tbcro was nn earthquake in Colorado on oloction day. The Republicans say there was something of on upheaval in more States than Colorado cn that day. Tho Now York World predicts as a result of tho De iratio triumph "a shiinkitgo of $40,000.00u, .' ovon moro, in tho appropria tions by Congross." Tho flour mill nnd niuo oilier bouses huvo boon desi, yod by fire nt Fort Worth, Texas. Ijofli, $40,000. Ioturrtuco $20,000. Wetly hurt happened about half p int Tho Constitutional Amondnipnts. 'From our exchanges wo conclude (liai Ute amendments in relation to tho^ffuolificallon of voteAtetod In relatiof^o tito titno of holding the gcneir?T':;#!cotion3 have curried hy n largo ma jority. This is right, for all voters will admit tho two elections should bo sepnrato and that no person convicted of an infamous crimo should bc allowed to voto. Wo arc glad lo see that thc negroes, almost os a unit, voted in favor of theso amendments. Government is a meru aggrega tion of societies nnd societies an aggregation of individuals, and who would accord to a felon or criminal an equal voice In thc making of laws with honest men? The folon is by his own not virtually ostracised and his voice should not bo heard in the government, tho organization of which is designed io supply nets of which ho has becu convicted. A' pure government be speaks a pure people, and to permit felons to vote is a virtual destruction of Ibo objects of government. A pure mau means a pure ballot and a puro ballot menus a pure government. Wc aro glad to sec this amendment carried by tho honest voters of tho country, btnok and white, and as tho Federal elections require sepnrato machinery, wc arc glad to seo thc right to sep?ralo I hem from thc Stale elections has been accorded. Tho amendment in relation to tho area of counties elicited a divided vole. 'Ibo Nows and Courier of thc 1 St li instant gives thc volo of twenty-four counties, showing a majority in favor of thc amendment of 588. Thc list docs liol include Greenville, l'ickcns and York which gave largo majorities ngainst tho proposed amendment, no also SIX oilier counties wllOSC vole was unknown. Wc believe this amendment has Leen, ns il should be, defeated by a popular vote, and whether this be tho onse or not, wo feel sure (ho vote is so close that it can't be carried in tho Legislature, lt ought not io bo curried not only ns bad policy, but ns detri mental to thc true interests of the Stale. It will herc bo remembered Illili when Gov. IhlgoOd referred lo such an amendment ns practicable and desirable, We boldly opposed il nnd stood almost alone for months after it was proposed. Thc good sense ot thc people have borne out our views, notwithstanding thc press generally was not outspoken on thc question. It will also bc remembered that wc for ten years advocated thc rc .enactment of the usury law as wise, that wc opposed its repeal and thal while tho KewH ami Courier und press generally opposed our views, wc maintained them, and thc re enactment of thc law has proved beneficial to every class and every in du si ry. Wc have ever opposed Ihe homestead law nnd its legitimate offspring, the Hen law, mid when they disappear, ns they should, we will nguiu have a prosperous Stale and an honest oilixcti slilp. Who will join us in nd vocal lng tho repeal or thc modification of thc homestead law to a mere BubsistCllOO for one year? ll would benefit everybody aud il could be OS l ided, The Synod of South Carolina and tho Lutheran Church. The Synod ol' South Carolina convened lu St. Mathews (German) (.burch in Charleston, S. C., November fib, 188'".. Thc churches in South Carolina were fully represented, but few ministers and lay delegates being absent. The Synod is composed of about thirty?!WO ministers and each pastor is entitled lo one lay delegate. Thc reports from tho various congregations were very encouraging, showing active liberality nnd general prosperity. The liuancinl condition of (he treasury was never better. The wants of i lie Synod in its various benevolent enterprises were fully incl. Thc missionary meeting during Synod realized from our German brethren ol' Charleston $276. Thc ministers and delegates were pleased willi thc reception they met in Charleston, nnd tho members of St. Mathews Church w?ro equally pleased willi thc Synod. Wc speak of thc members of this church, for thc Synod wns held in il; but of course thc members of thc three other Lutheran churches in thc eily help to entertain the Synod and lo swell the nniount given. Tho Synod ol' South Carolina is evidently on ibo increase nnd thc traveling missionary appointed by this Synod will establish congregations in other places in thc Slate. We also see from our various papers Illili thc Lutheran Church is increasing ill thc United Slates. She lins risen within the hist decade from the sixth in number muong ihe denomina tions lo the fourth if not the third. This no doubt is owing put ly io thc immense emigration from Germany, lier influence is felt in civilized Olid foreign lands, lier learned men Stand Urst in theology, church'history und all pertaining to Christian ethics in tho world.

Whether Ibero wns ' any connection between tho general atmcs-* pheric disturbances nod thc clout rio slorm wc sunnnt suv, but many scientific men have , satisfied themselves that such electric dis- , turbahoes ns those witneosed yesterday have their origin in thc sun. At (ho limo of (ho i April electric storm tho sun was greatly ? Agitated, and tho effects of tho disturbance i in thc polar orb were visible from thc earth.

Precisely thc same conditions now .prevail in thc solar orb It is giving evidence nf great agitation, lind fur a few days past a spot fully ( equal to ihc hugest spot seen in April has boen visible upon ?ts surfitOO, evidently un- | deigning great changes. A drawing of ibis spot, made on Thursday, shows that it is even I more complicated in ils details limn tho great : spot nf April, lt may seem very wonderful i lh.il thc effect of electrical or oilier dis- I lurbiinecs in tho sun should bo felt upon 1 thc earth when thc two b.dies uro separated 1 by a di? tunco of some 92.000,000 miles.

Wo aro credibly informed that people buy, read and like THE SUN fur tho billowing rearons, among others: BeoaU'O ils nows columns present in at tractive torin nn I with tho gronto-it pmiblo aeon racy whatever bas interest for bumana kind; tho events, tho deeds and misdeed'-", (he Wisdom, tho philosophy, the notable folly, ibo nolitl xonso, thc improving nonsense-all ibo nows of tho busiest world nt presoni rc? valving in space.

TUB SUN bas absolutely no purposes to servo savo tho information of its readers and thc fur**-, thor.tnc id the common good. Booaixo it is ovorybidy's nowsp\por. Ni man is sn humble that TUB SUN is indifferent to bis wclfaro and bis rights. No man is s > rich thal it can allow injustice to bc dono him. Nu man, no association of mon, is poverfulon >ng!i to bo OX om pt from tho stri?t application of its principios of right, and. wrong, Booauso in politics it ha? fought for a dozen years, without intermission and sonto* timos almost alono among newspapers, tho fight that lias result od in tho recent over whelming popular verdict against It iboson i*m and fur honest givornioonl. No matter what party is in power, TUB SUN stands un . will continue to stund liku a rock for tho intorosts of tho people against tho ambition of bosser, the onoroachtnottts of monopolista and tho dish.mest schomo* of public rob? bcrs.
