"While it might be true that each class of industry might be the best judge of its own products and the cost of producing them, yet that human nature, unchecked, is selfish and aggressive; and that by inquiry and making known the wants or basis of dealing with each other, much good would be the result to every class of industry. After the remarks of the chairman, on motion, a committee of three was appointed by the chair to draw a resolution expressive of the sense of the meeting. The following gentlemen composed the committee : Joseph C.

Wyatt Aiken furnishes the Charleston News and Courier with the following information in regard to the pension law recently passed by Congress: Ou the 25th of January, Mr. Hayes approved the "Arrears of Pension Bill,"'thus making it the law. Every mail since has brought me one or more letters from friends in South Carolina, expressing gratification at this fact, and inquiring how the writer should proceed to secure his (or her) back pay, for he (or she) the pensioner, had been in the Seminole, Black Hawk, Mexican or some other war, with which the "Arrear bill" had nothing to do. Before this reaches you, their hopes will have been blasted, but it may not be amiss to publish a few thoughts upon the subject of pensions, as our people at the South are morbidly sanguine that the present Congress will give many of them material relief by passing pension laws, which will apply to Southern as well as Northern soldiers who were in wars anterior to 1861. In 1871 (I think) a pension law was enacted granting a pension to every soldier who had been disabled, (or his representative if he had been killed) in the "war waged for the suppression of the rebellion." Of course, this meant only Federal soldiers. The day of payment of the pension was to date from the passage of the law, aud all soldiers who did not, within five years from that date, ap ply for a" pension, were to be debarred. The "Arrears of Pension Bill" amends that law so as to date the day of payment back to the day of the death or wounding of the soldier, and removes the five years' restriction. So, if a soldier was wounded at the first battle of Manassas and is drawing but $8 a month, this bill gives him additional pay of nearly $1,000 in the aggregate. There are over 300,000 of these pensioners, and their number will be greatly increased by the removal of the five years' restriction and this lumping off to them of ten years' pay at one payment. No one estimates that it will require less than $30,000,000 to pay these arrearages, and some say it will require all of $100,000,000. The only obstruction now in the way is the passage of a bill to appropriate money to meet the demands of this arrears bill. Whether this will be an impediment of any conseauence. vou mav iudge when I tell you a wooden legged Federal general framed and introduced the bill in a Democratic House which passed it; it then passed a Republican Senate, and was approved by a Republican President, who, convinced at least of its impropriety, hesitated several days before he would sign it, but had not the nerve to veto it. The appropriation committee will doubtless recommend the necessary appropriation ; the Southern mejnbere will not oppose it from that delicate sense of honor peculiar to them; the two parties, North and South, will vie with each other in approving the appropriation ; the money will be required to come forth, aud the man who chews tobacco or takes an occasional glass of grog will have to pay that much more for his quid and his toddy. The surviving volunteer soldiers of the war are really a power in the land, and the two parties North are vieing with each other to secure their votes, so that this arrears pension matter is not, and cannot be considered, a just claim upon the Treasury of the United States, but is virtually, if not really, a political measure advocated by either party to defeat the other. Neither will gain or deserve special credit, and so "honors will be easy." A few more words upon the general question of pensions. On the 9th of March, a law was enacted to pension the surviving soldiers, or the widows of soldiers, of the war of 1812< Would you believe it, there are now on file in the pension office more than 26,000 applications for pensious under that bill ? I did not think this could possibly be the case, but so v it is. Human longevity has been admirably illustrated since the passage of that bill. As I have received what appeared to me to be a fair proportion of these pension claims from the veterans of the war of 1812, I have multiplied that number by 292, the number of representatives upon the floor of the House, and find that the product is but little more than one-third the reported number of applicants. I have wondered where these 26,000 veterans or surviving widows came from. The effect of the unanticipated number, I fear, has killed the possibility of the passage of a law pensioning the surviving soldiers of the Seminole and Mexican ware. These wars were fought principally by Southern soldiers, and this will be another reason why pensions will never be paid to their veterans. When the pension bill relating to these wars was recently under consideration in the House, some oue moved to amend by adding a clause :? . ?i.? granting a peusiuu iu every vujunreer auuucr who was in the Federal army from 1861 to 1864 inclusive. Would you believe it, it passed by acclamation, which really killed the pensiou bill; therefore, I can but say to the Southern survivors of the Florida, Black Hawk or Mexican ware, possess your souls in patience, for I do not believe the Forty-6fth Congress will award you one dollar for the duty performed or the exposure and risk you suffered for "our common country." There is auother pension bill yet to be reported to the House, which restores to the peusion roll those men and their widows of the South who were once on the roll, but were stricken from it by an act passed in February, 1862. Whether it will be reported this Congress I am uuable to say. And if reported, whether it will become a law, no one can?, telp c You have heard of the man who "said no".one but'a Creator could anticipate what would be the verdict of a jury. You or I can diagnose the hidden verdict of a half dozen juries, even South Carolina post bellum juries, easier than we could anticipate the fate of a bill in the Forty-fifth Congress, unless it were& bill known to be for the benefit of the eDtire North. I do not believe the bill restoring the Southerners to their rights will pass; first, because the Republican party do not think we have any rights they are bound to respect; and secondly, because the Northern Democracy are so nearly of the same opinion, that they will not oppose the Republicans in order to favor us of the South. The National Democracy to-day are practically divided by the Potomac and the Ohio, and unless something is done to remove this line of division - iQfift 1 nan ooo nn iwnann whv ftrunt, nr WIU1C ? uuv, X V(?u ovv .. ?J some other nominee of the Republican party may not walk, without molestation, from private life straight into the White-House. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM ROCK HILL. Rock Hill, S. C., February 10. Our streets have been quite crowded for the past two weeks, with wagons of various shapes and sizes, drawn by mules and horses of like dissimilarity, all from North Carolina?wagons laden with vegetables, garden seeds, apples, corn, oats, flour, dried beef, etc. W hen the contents of the wagons were disposed of, then came the offer to sell the team and wagon. Several succeeded in making a clean sale of their entire stock in trade. ? Several droves of fine mules and horses have also been in our market, and scarcely a day passes that we don't see some farmer leading from the sales-lot, one or two newlypurchased mules, showing the increased prosperity of our farming community. Nor do our farmersiafck for the latest and most improved styles of agricultural implements; as we have in our .midst farmers and mechanics?the inventors and patentees?of some of the best adjustable iron plows now in use. A spirit of rivalry induced them to improve upon old styles. 'Thay phosphate question has agitated the minds of the survivors of the Grange organization ; but no decided step has been taken. Yet the planters agree that they feel themselves somewhat imposed upon by the phosphate monopoly. Trial Justice Fewell has had notice from the Secretary of State of his re-appointment arTrial Jiistice.?! , : Some cases of trespass of stock, in violation of the recent stock law, have been recently tried by Trial Justice Fewell. Appli-1 cations for redress under some of the more recent-acts <>f the legislature, have also been made to him.' The applicants of the latter are con6ned to the colored people, who seem quite fond of litigation. But little encour. agement is needed to make them "go to law," as they say. Miss Wade recently gave a public exhibition of her class in calisthenics. The class is admirably drilled, not to have yet taken a full course. The manoeuvres peculiar to calisthenics were new and quite novel to most, if not all,- the audience. The various attitudes assumed in performing the different evolutions, bring every muscle of the body and the limbs into play, which is well calculated to strengthen and fully develop the entire physical system. Calisthenic exercises are not necessarily violent, and we think if introduced into our schools as a recreation, to which the pupils shou d devote one hour each day, it would be highly beneficial to the general health of the children. It is a sport that can be indulged in, indoor and out. The new school system recently adopted here, seems to be working admirably. Entire satisfaction now seems to prevail among the advocates and patrons of this wise and judicious system. It is a self evident fact that our town is not yet finished, but continues to grow. The trustees of the Baptist church have purchased a beautiful lot upon which they propose to erect a <handsome church edifice. W. B. Wilson, Jr., and A. E. Smith have recently purchased eaeh a most desirable location, upon which they propose to build each a residence. We would suggest that our postoffice building needs some improvements made upon it. The vast amount of matter that comes here requires more room and a bettei-arranged office in order to accommodate the people and the distribution of the mails. If the windows were filled with lock-boxes, we feel satisfied that such an improved arrangement would be couducive to the convenience of citizens, and more especially so to our merchants, whose mail receipts are very heavy. The cost would be but a trifle, compared with the satisfaction it would secure. Mr. James Young died at Gordon's Hotel, Saturday, at 4, P. M. He came here, some eight years ago, from Illinois. He married a daughter of William Sturgis, after which, he and wife emigrated to Arkansas, where they remained several years. They then went to Illinois. He became insane and was placed in an asylum, and his wife came back to her people. After her return to this place, Mr. Young recovered from his mental derangement and was released from confinement. He was unable, pecuniarily, to come to his wife. She sent him m?>uey, and he came here several days ago. Since his arrival, he has been confined to bed. His exposure and utter lack of attention, since his release, so completely | prostrated his entire system, as to render his recovery impossible. He was kindly treated, on his return. Dr. Hope waited upon him, but could not save the dying man. He leaves a widow and several helpless children, for whom the sympathies of the community are deeply enlisted. His remains were interred in Laurelwood cemetery. Lux. ftaT A Chinese couple were married by a Sacramento Justice, who informed them that, according to Section 500,000 of the Code, it was necessary that the bride should be immediately kissed, either by her husband or somebody else. The bridegroom said it was contrary to Chinese propriety for a husband to kiss his wife before folks, but if the justice would exclude the Chinese spectators, he would obey the law in the presence of the Americans, whom he regarded as of no account. His suggestion was followed, and he kissed his wife. Jinancial anil Commercial. YORKVILLE, February 12.?Cotton 7 to 8i. CHARLOTTE, February 11.?Cotton, 7 to 9.
