Gleaves, Smalls and Whippcr arc Fpoken of* for Congress iu the 2nd U n gressional District, neither one of whom are fit unices, perhaps, it be .Mr. Whip ped Why is it that that Congressional District doesn't take up a man like Henry Sparnick, the editor of the Aikon 2'ri?iuic, ono with a name Worthy and respectable at otico. lie might have Bomo weight in Congress ; certain it is that he would not make his constituents uBhamcd of their representative. The reporter of the News and Courier writing from this placu to that paper, stated a few days since that the jurors, witnesses and constables, were paid off, at the adjournment of tho recent Court, for tho first time since reconstruction*. Such/ is not tho fact, and wo arc charita ble enough to believe that Mr. Moroso Was misinformed, for we cannot *;think that he would wilfully misrepresent our County vTreasmer.

Did the present Treasurer prom ise that his friends should ebuso tho Governor with the vilest epithets known in the English language to get his ap pointment? Dum vitant stnlti vitiai in contrario enri'Ullt. Our Hope. Our hope (or South Carolina and the future of the Republican party, lies in the belief that tho coming State Con volition will put forth a ticket that will at once command the respect and sup port of uM good men. The plain fact of it is. something of this sort will have to Le done. The people have been fooled long enough, and do not intend to be hoodwinked a fourth timo by a plat form running over with lair promises. They want sotnothiug more substantial this time. They want intelligence, worth and unquestioned stud unimpoaoh hie honesty, :u:d that they must have, or they will jump their party linos. 1 This ivay of voting for oorrupttoniats simply because they are Republicans, is phived out. Let us have tin honest Government the next time, if every man now holding office has to go by tho board to ; accomplish it. 'J lie exigences of the tin.es demand it, and, cost what it 11 ay. the Rej ublicnu party must face ih" music. Judge Muckoy wants to go t> Con gress in the place of Wallace. How much confidence can be placed in him, will be ascertained before in my months more. When it becomes kmwa that c'x-Goverii?r Soitt entert lined him at his house, while Governor, for mouths, np d topk him upon -hi? shoulders and bad him elected to tue position ho now holds, and that soon thereafter nothings was too mean for him to say against tho man that raised him from an humble ^Tria| >) ustieo's .ofuse^j tho Consf.rva tives of his Congressional District may, perhaps, pause a moment for reflection^ before swallowing, as the very truth, all that Judge T. J. Mtickey says, lie was M?ses' chief supporter iu the last State Convention J his spokesman at recep tions during the sitting of tho lust Gen oral Asseitbly, and now has gone back i n him. .Judge Mac-key's style is this: When he can make a point with tha Democrats by abusing the Republicans, he explains it away to the latter by say ing; Foul them (the Democrats) if you can. The lEnpp.v Couple. W.KDDiNct Gossip?Who Mr. Sar Tlllt IS IS. People who know the. modest and pretty young lady who was .Miss Nellie I Grant appreciate her. Few girls of her age?.-he is only eighteen?would have borne with such admirable temper and discretion tho flattery and attentions that beset a President's daughter, oho quits single life with the esteem of everybody bore. She deserves a good husband, and naturally, then, the in quiry is made as to whether*she has g; t one. Mr. Sarloris came here with Knglish drcES, address and manners He parts his hair iu the middle, and .spells his name in the middle. Ho wore while about his hotel a "swallow-tail" coat and slippers with bows on ; and, iu short, his minor ways Wore so un Amcricnn that ho was looked upon as a ??.snob" Rut the young men grew rut her fond of him; for, although he is only twenty-three years of age and acts young, he was found 'o bo made of manly stuff, and even capable of teach ing older pcoplo gentlemanly traits. Many were amused at a diversion of bis at the gymnasium, where, to the surprise of all, he pommeled tho burly tutor of boxing until that personago was satisfied; and, to tho further sur prise of the young men, he plays u good game of billiards or whist. Mr Sartoris is a descendant of tho Huguenot refugees. His lather, Conservative, and one of the best known members of the Carlton Club, is a prominent merchant, ly known on as eho and doos a largo East Indian business. His undo, Mr. Snmuda,M. also of the Huguenot rofugccs, is kiu wu as tUo largest shipbuilder on tho Thames, and an authority in tho navy ?icbatcs in Parlia ment. It is not genera] that Queen Victoria, as nit heard of tlic proposed marri (ge, made inquiries regarding Mr. Sa toris, aud wroto a letter to tho President, in which I she confidently endorsed h m. This letter probably aroso from I io sincorc personal attachment which lho Queen felt toward Miss Graut, and the esteem ohe felt for tho President of tl o llcpub lic in bis official capacity. 1'Vis hinted by those coguizaut of the situ it ion that tho royal heart will be move i t.j some special mark of approbation in connec tion with the marriage It i? believed among Englishmen who Know, or affect to know, a little about tho Court, that the Queen will invite the coupjle to visit W indoor Castle and confer some title of nobility upon trie bridegroom. Thoro is a coufidolit belief that President Grant will visit Europe aller his Presi dential term, and tho idea of tendering him the freedom of the city in such li event is already favorably talked over in the London clubs. As to temporalities, Mr) Saftoris succeeds *o more money thaa he can easily spend. The briut's father is esti mated to own half a million dollars worth of property. To sum it ajl up, ths agreeable announcement may be truthfully made ] that the biido has a good husband, Mr. Sartoris a good wife, and (the union | assumes?at loast in Washingtoniau j eyes?tho significance of a) national j affair which cannot fail to ?emetit more strongly lho bonds of friendship that n ew exist between Great Britain and tlfe United State. Mr. and Mrs. Sartoris will probably bo residents of Europe for a year or so, aud them became permanent residents of this country. I met a mail Saturday in New York whom many know as "PoUquot Johnny." He had a large eapet hag in one. hau 1 and eighteen Slot) bills in tho other lie said (and I know it to'bc tfue) that he had fufhished the family bouquets and floral adornments for the wedding, and that tho President had just paid him SI ,800 'dike a littlomau " "John nywho was evidently sober, said he was going with the bridal couple on tho Haltic to Europe to c?ntiniie his llural occupation on the voyago*aud that ho then on his Way to thoNstoamer.? >n com ???;;/<>>} /^I^MjaAjur 1 or/. tToiWWW//' Commerce.

Mrs. Walsh, of Charleston, in roach, ing out of a second story window of her house on Monday night, lost her balance und fell to the sidewalk. She was se riously injured, aud had to bo taken to the city hospital for treatment. A disastrous fire occurred at Ander son Court House on Sunday night, the residence of Mrs. A. E. Harris being destroyed with all its contents, and the inmates narrowly oscaping with their lives. The building was familiarly known as tho Barlo llouso, and was one of the most valuable properties in the place. Trial Justice Thomas Walk or, near Blackstock, reports that he hold an in quest ever tho body of Sarah Davis at the plantation of A. J. Moblcy. It was thought that she had boon killed by some one, but after a rigid examination of witnesses and a post mortem examina tion by Dr. Charles Kubb, tho jury rou dered a verdict of death from disease , supposed to bo pneumonia. A Drinekloy divorce, with a more unfortunate ouding than tho one deci ded hero on Wednesday, has occurred at Ne.vman, Ga , tnnd, strange to say, tho parties wcro irom Memphis, too. S. II. Drinekloy, a dissipated husband, applied for a divorce, and as tho wife was likely to win, he stabbod her to the heart. She died in two hours, Item?*. Judge Harper, at tho Greonvillc Georgia, Circuit Court, excused all far mers who askod it from serving on the jury, and had their places supplied bj citizens of the town. That was right, as the farmers are too busy iu their crops, while the cioizens of tho town aro not. Tho police station iu Augusta, Ga., was visited on Tuesday last, by a color ed preacher, who told a tulo of woe. which tho Constitut'o nlist condenses aa follows: 'A colored brother had enticed him last Tuesday night inie a false hunt for a trunk of* money, which, ha said, was buried in a certain spot beyond the Augusta Faxstoryt This brother told him tha'. he must leave behind every thing ofvaluo?clothing, Watch, money &c.?as luck would desert thoiri other wise. Each stripped off, and proccodo d in a circio in opposite direction' toward the bushes. Holly man the preaeher, arriving at the spot indicated, waited some tint e for his comrade, who did not come to time. He, therefore, dec ided that' not finding the treasure, he would return to the starting point. Rut there he was in it quandary again. Ho found that h:s colored (stranger) brother had ab seonded with all the clothing belonging to both, carrying ?fTalso $0f> and a gold watch belonging 16 ibe preacher. Hoi lyuian, aftor considering for awhile, thought it best to make for Iiis boarding house .which was in the new territory, some distance off. He at last reiche d it and procured another suit, and then pel forth to fill an appointment.' Emigration and Travel.?The latest I rieh journals tells us that a great increase is visible in tho number ofemi grants embarking at Queenstowu for America. In one week alone over two thousan 1 persr.u were boo'ced for the steamers leaving lor New York, and and many had to bo left biihin I for w tut of room. On the other hin I, it is n> tod that travel to Kurope from Atuorici has fallen off fifty per cent, as compared with last year. This is aecountol for by the panic and tho absence of any great international exhition on the cou tineut. Another roasou is the unusual number of disaster* to oennn steamship with which the year opened, and w lush had the effect of deterring CaUtioua pco pic from the dangers of the set. Deputy lj. S. Hildrcth was sho* at 11 illsboro, Coffee county, Tcnn., last, Friday, by Thomas Jefferson Sanndors. I A true bill has been Ibun I against Ha an dors for an allenged Ku Klux outrage. The particulars aro as follows: Hilureth commanded Saundcrs to halt, informiug htm that he had a tmtpidi for his arrest. With this Sauoders shot both loads contained iu his gun at Hil drcth, who filed twice in return. Saun dcrs pressed forward upon Hildrcth, who, fin ling that Sauuders mcnt to kill him, attempted to retreat, falling fro u mortal wounds a short distance away. Saun lets folh-wcd him,and shot him a third time. Hildrcth had already fallen to tko grotind before Sanndors' sisters, appalled at the bloody deed, rumed up toll ildreth, taking his head in h :r lip, and both commenced, to loudly bow ail his fate, and at thesttue tinta assauge "his sufferings as best Ihey could. Average Consumption of Food in a Life Time. Let no hoy be disheartened by the following calculation, but remember that untiring industry will enable him to come out victor in the cud. Say that tho boy is ten years old and is taken up into a high mountain, or a respectable hill, perhaps, will do as well and shown the various articles ho will have ii con sumc should he live au average life time. Surrounded with thesa objects, ho first sees 30 oxen, then 200 sheep, 100 calves, 200 lambs, 50 pigs, 1,200 chickens, 3,000 turkeys, 203 pigeons, 1 10 pounds salmon, 120 pounds other fiish, 30,000 oysters, 5,4*13 pounds vegetables, 113] pounds butter, 21,000 cgg3 , dj tons bread, 3,000 gallons tea and coffee, besides tons of fruit, barrels of sweet meats, aud hogsheads of wine. These tiro the figures given by Mr. Soyer, the cook of the London Reform Club, in his book, "Tho Modern Housj wile," ns the amount consumed by eaoh individual in n life-time, and they are said to be below, rather than abovo, tho real quantity. Of course the food may be varied, but what is taken off from oue kind must be added to some other. The boy may seriously apprehend that his jaws and stomach will givo out be fore he has disposed of this vastquanti fcy of food, but he will take courage when be casts his eye over the sleek form one in middle life who has well nigh accomplisiic d bis task without show ing the least sign of weariness. Many a man lins disposed ef his allottuient, and is apparently ready for auothcr job ol equal magnitude, an I thus it will bo w ith the race until the ond of time. 15. F. I?Ili^I*KVFUSS, I>e?ti?.J.
