Gordon and Nor wood and Livingston and Peok all fussing, and cx-Govornor Smith and Judgo IliucB in tho bushes with their coats off. Gordon says Norwood is a demagogue and uses language on Livingston. Of course thoy had to bring poor Tom Lyon into it as a sido Bhow. But Tom oap stand it. Norwood says ho docs not like the word demagogue, and ho challenges Gordon for a talk. They all seem to ho friends to tho farmor, and are almost ready, to dio for him. This sudden and extraordinary lovo for tho poor farmor is vory touching and pathetic, and I wish there wore four or fivo Senators to oleot. Such de votion dosorves to ho rewarded. To a man up in a trco tho whole thing looks peouliar, and somehow reminds us of the soldier who got scarod oariy and wanted to go homo. So, while tho minnie balls were singing and whistling all around him, he was found behind a tree with his arms outstretched, and was waving thorn up and down vigorously. "What aro you doing, Jake ?" said a com rade "I want to go home," Bald ho, "and I nm waving for a furlough." Ho wanted to get shot in tho hand. There is many an office-seokor, many a political soldier waving for a fur lough now. What is all this racket about, any . ow ? Who started it ? Who told tho farmora that they were oppressed and mistreated and imposed upon by RT~|~Y-t?.-f-'rtT VJ. A.unueU7"5trLi0"tflS;" iSo.yX. all tho rest of mankind? Genoral Gordon says ho lins boon sympathiz ing with thom for seventeen years, and Mr. Norwood has been troubled all his lifo about thom. Governor Smith is awful sorry for them. Liv ingston has wept in great anguish for thom. Well, it must be a bad, sad case, but to save my life, I can't cry a bit. I wish that X could. When I see folks weeping all around mo, and I can't shod a tear, it makes mo sus pect my Own heart. I'm afraid I'vo got calloused in my old ago. I farmed as hard as I could for oloven : years, and never found out that I was oppressed. I worked in the field with my boys. Wo planted and plowed and hood and mowed grass and raisod horses and cattle, and sold our produco for a good price. Our corn .always brought fifty couts a bushol at tho crib and our hay $20 a ton, and Nobody ovor carno and told mo I was imposed upon, and I wasv8uoh a fool I never found it out. .Too Bradley has boon farming right close by for twenty years and hasn't found it out yot. Bo must be an awful fool. Joo used to bring his cotton to my gin before I got up and I asked him ono day.how ho managed to make so much cotton and corn and wheat and oats, and raise so many fat hogs, and send his daughtor to town to sohool, and buy a piano, and all that. Joe smiled and said : "Well, you must know that if I don't seo thc sun riso in tho morning I havo thc headache all day, and as my house is down in a hollow, I havo to go to tho corn fiold or cotton patch to seo tho sun risc." I'll bot *10 that Joe don't bo long to tho Alliance. Ho hasn't got time. When a rainy day comes you will find him in his workshop making a plow stock, 01 mending his harness, or cleaning out his stables. Ho saves ovory spadeful of barnyard manure and puts it on his land. I had ono tonant who worked hard and prospered' I bad two otb ors who wore always behind. Thoy had a powor of business at tho mill or at town, or at some mcol.ing house, and when the crock was muddy thoy were just obliged to go seining. Their crops wore always in tho grass, and they arc in tho grass yet I reckon. Thoy belong to thc Alliance, and arc waiting for1 something to turu up. This is plain talk, but it is truo talk. Tho greatest enemy thc farmor has got is his own. indolence. ??o man succocds at anything who does not work diligently. If a man would work ns hard on his farm ns I {cub Sattorfiold does in his store, ho would prosper. Mr. 'Sattcrfiol.? is a good merchant. Ho is at his store bofore I got up. His dinner is sent to bim ou busy days. Af tor supper he goes back to his ?toro and work? on his books. Ho is novor idle, and is making monoy. It is tho samo way with all grades and professions. It is very nico and pleasant to sot about and talk and road tho news, but tho lawyer? m tb:s tc wa wed got most all tho business aro rarely seen on tho strcots, and thoy enter tain no loafers. Diligonoo, dili geneo is tho seorot of suooess, and diligence ought to bo tho seorot password of tho Allianoo. I wish I know oxaotly who it is that is oppressing tho poor farmer. I think I would got a big stick and go for him. I, wish I know tho dis tress that hangs Uko a millstone over ray friends, Gus Dates and Tom Lyon, and old man Burge, and C. M. Jonos, and Connor, and Turalin, and John Brown, and a host of other big farmers in tho county. They have all got rich enough to leave home when thoy please and send their children off to college, but still they aro not happy. Thoy soom to think we have boen doing some thing against thom, but I deolnro upon my honor I haven't. They say they want a warehouse and a loan T/om tho government, so they can hold thoir cotton and forco the manufacturers to pay 16 cents a pound for it. Just so-tho groat West wants warehouses " for their grain, so as to make us pay $2 a bushol for wheat and *1 for com. If this thing all happens, what is to becomo of rae ? I won't have more than a shirt and a half all tho year round, and my wife will wear hoi eyes out patching undergarments, Carl and Jessie won't havo bul ono bisouit apiece and nothing but 'tators to carry to school. What will becomo of- thc shoemaker anc the blacksmith and tho carpontor anc the brickmason and tho day laborer' What will becomo of all tho pooi folks and tho negroes and tho cottoi j pickers r Tl have botoro mo tl tables of tho last census, and fin th nt there aro 4,250,000 farmers an planters in the United States, an there aro 18,000,000 laborers-toilo; -working pooplo who aro not fnrn ers.

There aro over 1,000,00 mechanics and nearly aB many rai road operators and half as man milliners and factory hands, womo and oh i M ron. What is to become < thom if tho farmers get up a corm on tho necessaries of lifo ? Ono < England's groatest statesmen wi Richard Cobden, whoso poworft specohcB abolished tho duty on grai and the inscription on his monumer. is "Ile gave tho poor cheap broad." . I tell you, my farming friend this thing will not do. You h av gone far boyond reason in your d< mandi. D?magogues have led yo astray-I say it considerately-demr gogucs have led you far away fror th 3 original purposes of your ordci Don't you know that you will novo Iivo to seo your cotton in a govern mont warehouse ? Don't you knot that you will noyer seo a dollar fl that $64,1)00,000 that your loader say is coming right away from Eng land to advance on your cotton Don't you know that all these prc rateos are a delusion and a snare an wijl fado into a mist after tho elec tions arc ovor? I do confess t some grief and mortification ove tho credulity of my farming fricndi I fool but little interest in politice My politics is for the South to g on prospering ns she has dono sine tho war.

There ar no people upon oarth that havo a much to bo thankful for as wo have I fool liko I ara alone in those viowf for I know that tho press is agains mo, and most of tho pooplo, but feel bettor for having had my sa; whethor it pleases anybody or nol I soe politicians dancing and pranc ing around tho AHianco, and talkinj big about corn and cotton who don' know tho difference botweon a bull tonguo and a twister, 11?, ard of oin tho othor day who said that thor would bo a very short crop of cot ton, for ho had noticed that tho re< blossoms woro all falling off. ll ?aid that just ns soon ns n poe iarm<k^ad anything to sell tho prici wont down. Cotton was down, am foddor had dropped from *2 a hun drcd to $1, and sweet potatoes ha< filroady gono down to 00 cents i bushel, and in two months from nov com would fall 25 or 60 percent. Wo must havo a big whitehouse, said ho, and atoro tho produce and koep it uutil the speculators and the monopoliste are whippod out. Maybe that mun wants to bo a f riojid to the farmor, but ho don't know how. Ho knows nothjpgof the laws of supply and. demand. During the i4>yruaoie> meetings I had to pay #5 oents for ohiokens that hadn't done sucking. Boforo that they wcro plenty at 15 oonts. The Mothodlst proaohers did that, but they didn't moan to and I'm not complaining. I'll do anything for a preacher.' BILL ARI*. - The Third Conference?

Under those oiroumstanooS, we rcproduco from tho Sbartanburg Herald, that whioh to UB seems one of tho fairest discussions of this oall that we havo found among thoso who wore opposed to Tillman's nomina tion by tho Demooratio party of thiB State : "Wo oan novor forget that night in August whon these men assembled at tho call of Chancellor Johnson to seo what could be dono to prosorve their rights of oitizen?hip. Evory sent in tho House of Representatives was occupied; all spectators had boen excluded from tho galleries; the decks wore cleared for action, The discussions on both sides had gone far into tho night. Haskell'! and Barnwell's fiory words had fan ?gr?at doal of oxponso, boneo tho nccoi sity of vouuhiutf our nat'-^ua to adhor noir indignation into fiamos. 11 "It was then that Konnedy an Smytho and Orr and Cothran thro themselves in the broach and checke, tho headlong ' tide. It was noarl; three o'olook in the morning. Th soats wore empty. Tho mon ha^ risen and crowded around the speak ors in a circle so dose that the gest urcs almost touched them. Many o tho men wore hot with wrath. Ever indignant word ol defiance made tin hall ring with oheers. Tho words o thoso who counselled submission U wrong for tho sake of South Caro lina fell in ominous silence. Thc men who sympathized with then wore too soriously earnest for clamor Thoy wcro ^ about to suri-endor m bravo men wwb surrendor a fortrcst for tho sake of tho woroon and chil dren within it. They did it without fi inching. "That action was decisive. It spoke for tho straigbtout Demooraoy, and Haskell and his aiders knew that it was so. It was because it was so, that thoy fought so strenuously to carry this convention with them. They aro still freo men. Thoy can repudiate both factions of the Demo cratic party. They claim that the Deinooracy no longer holds their allegiance, but let them do so fairly and honestly. Lot them announce themselves as independents. Lot thom not assume tho name of tho Straigbtout Demooraoy which they could not control and whose senti ment thoy do not voice. Let them not saddlo upon us the consoquonecs of their folly." This is the light in which this mattor now appears to thoso who in the paBt sympathized with the mov ers for action and it is on that account that wo reproduce it at this time. From this and ?the article which appears in tho Greenville News, the sentiment of all classes in thoso two uppor counties is pretty well analyzed. -- Charleston Daily World.

Arc bonds more seoure at nearly whole value, than homesteads at half value f It is nonsense to talk about the greater security of the bonds. Why not loan on real estate, and why. not give to its owners tho right to bank also? No man living can give a reason except that it would oheapoh tho rate of interest and stop tho enormous profits of this oppres sive and detestable monopoly, whioh has already pretty well absorbed the woalth of tho whole country. Tho government not only lends to tho rich only, but it exempts thoir property (tho bonds) from taxation. Bonds or?ate no woalth; lands aro the foundation of all wealth. Bonds, in their interest quality, weigh Uko load upon tho whole people If anything ought to bo exempt from taxation it is land engaged in pro ductivo industry. Give farmers, as a class, the samo rights whioh aro gi von to bondholding bankers, and, instead of monrning and want and woo, our beloved land from Malno to Louisiana, and from tho Atlantic to tho Pacific, would surpass Eden in plenty, beauty and glory.

"Little BM" Howard owes his freedom to a loyal tiri A? brave wife and a suit or woman's clothes. N It has been the custom of Sheriff \ Gilreath, since Howard was inoarcc rated, to allow Mrs. Howard to oc casionally spend a night with her husbahd.

Sho lives in tho upper sV of tho county, a long djstanceX tho oity, and vory often lenve?s.v. hus band's cell early in the morilTh^ in order to roaoh her homo on the'same day. Yesterday morning at 6 o'clock Jailor Gaillard was asked to open tho poison colls arid allow Mrs. [toward to leave. Tho voice that made tho request wa? Howard's, vv nert the v^reat iron doors leading to tho jail corridor w?ro unlocked and swung open thc jailor saw what he supposed to bo Mrs, Howard with hor baby on her arm and sbyeral bundles. She had on a dress that was familiar to tho jailor'arid aboh uet covered her faco. It was still dark in the jail, but tho jailor was careful to peer under tho bonnet to be certain that it was Mrs. Howard. A "trusty" prisoner who waits on tho othor prisoners was with the Jailor at the time, and he was corifl lortt that tho person was Mr?. How ard. Two hours later, tho timo break fast is'served to the prisoners, one of the prisoners went to Howard's coll and called him. Ho was surprised to soe 'Mrs. Howard's head and face appear from undor the cover, but no sign of Bill Howard. Tho matter '1 waa reported to the jailor and then / to the Sheriff, and the offioers reall- j tacd t.bat jttjwj?i^ittlo Bill" Feiward ... ?Eat MOTIN! OF who left the cell in woman's clothes. From the jail Howard went to tho. house of a Air. Pittman, oh Factory Hill, and left tho baby thero with his father, who spent tho night with Mr. Pittman, who in a relative of the Howards. That was the lost H Been of Howard and he is probably now among friends in the mountains. y A Several persons living on Falls t j Street, who knew Mrs. Howard, saw Howard pass, but thought it waa Mrs* Howard. They wore surprised that oho did not speak, as was hoi* custom, and wore further surprised at tho careless way in which she waa carry- ; ing tho baby, that little buridlo of " humanity being swung on "Littlo Bill's" right sf do, with his arm hold* ^ ing it there, much as some people oarry a sack of flour. A Newe roportor visited Mrs. Howard in tho coll which her hus band had occupied. She was orying bitterly and tho kind-hearted prison ers, alf of them under sentence for revenue violations, tried to comfort hor. She said that she waa 17 years of ago and that hor husband was 21. She is a good looking young woman, and although,, only 17 years old a ftilly grown and developed woman. Throughout her husband's trial and confinement she showed a devoted attachment to him and the sacrifice she made for her husband's freedom has made her admired by many porsons to whom she is un known. Jailer Gftillard has several times said that ho would be on the look out for' such an occurrence. There is little difference between tho sizes of Howard and his wifo, and tho prisoner has no moustache or board to give his face the wrong look un dor a bonnet. Every e.(tori will be made to rc capturo Howard. . Tho others aro undooided what to do with Mrs. Howard. Sho has the sympathy olv> overy one, and it will probably bo hard to got a jury that will convict her if she should be held xor trial.
