Farley of Spartanburg, who came within six votes of receiving the nomina tion before a full State Con vention of the party. Captain Farley has received au endorsement that oauuot with propriety be ignored. The Columbia Street Railroad is nearly completed. The cars are ex pected to be running en the 1st of September.

Ben-Moses Tillman, went as a dele gate to the late Democratic Conven tion in Columbia, hoping, to control its nominations. Accordingly, he called the farmer delegates together in a kind of caucuricus in the Court House, but failed to secure unity of action by the farmers in tire Conven tion. Then what? After having for months abused the officials of the State, declared for a new deal, and for farmers to fill the offices, he goes and supports Sheppard for Governor, who is a iawyer and has been in office with out interruption since 1876, instead of supporting Richardson or Bratton, both of whom are planters. Tillman has declared from first to last, that there was no polities in the question of prohibition in our county, i uew f ,l 1 n . m ‘ r ‘\ m > l veni 1 e,lt > while nearly tinu aunefato from any otpej-; 1 'fi ,n 4 that has been said or done election ! “‘' ls neeM w 11 * 1 reference to politics. ‘ , , !

If any one believes that horse-racing is j not aa expensive business when one’s horse doesn’t win he has only to look about \ him to be satisfied. A staole of say twelve i horses or even eight is not kept up -.h^rt i of from £40 to £75 a day, exclusive of | jockey fees and railway transportation J Tiiere is a trainer at a salary of from -5150 j • to $200 a mouth, a foreman at from $15 to | £100, aud then? arc generally two darkey i grooms for each horse. Then there is the | feed-stable outfit to he kept up and an endless array of little things to be bought. Then there are the entry fees and forfeits that in the course of ths season amouat to a great deal of money. The jockeys take a great deal out of the profits, too, when there are any. Ike Mur phy, the colored jockey, who just now en joys the distinction of being called the Archer of America, receives £0,000 a year from Baldwin for the first call on his services, and $2,000 a year from Corrigan for the second call. That is, when Bald win has a horse iu a race Murphy must mount for him. When Baldwin has no entry or it is withdrawn, then Corrigan can call on the jockey. When neither has a horse on, then Murphy can ride for the owner that pays him best. What with salaries, fees, gratuities aud a turn now and then at the pool box, Murphy is said to have au income of $15,000 a year. When he wins a big and unexpected slake the lucky owner usually gives him from $500 to *1,000 as a present. Lucky Baidu iu gave him $500 extra tue year he won the Derby with Volants, and £750 the other day ween ha won it with Sliver Cloud. inc next best paid of tho jockeys ia Duffy, rider for the Haggiu stable. Ho receives £5,UG0 a year straight, and can ride for any body ei.se when Haggiu has no horses iu the race. These are the two best rider ou the turf. Lust year Mur phy won fifty-five mounts and lost but eighty-nine; Duffy won thirty-three mounts and lost seventy-nine. Kelly is rider for porter Ashe, and Withers, the boy who was injured the other day, rides for W. G. Barnes. Both are well paid. Many may think it absurd that jockeys should be enabled to earn such large sums, but, wiuu tho hazardous nature of the busi-.esu is taken uito account and the skill and judgment required considered, the boys do not spot#overpaid. It is tlie most dangerous occupation In the world. The liability of horse.' to bolt, stuiuMo, to shy, or to do any one of the dozen things that horses under oxcito rn tut are likely tc do, is almost sure to ra- sulc iu disaster if indulged iu at the frightful speed with which they go. Tue accident to Withers and tha death of his horse, Forrest, the other day, was a start- iing illustration of the perils of the track.

Some Indian schcolksys found their teacher had a very great aversion to frogs. To them it was a continual sourca of amusement to see her run away from them. Ona day a boy caught one and shut it up in the tabic drawer. The teacher entered the room. All were in order, but when she opened the drawer the frog, glad in its liberty, leaped out upon tho r.nd the teacher made a great ado. One of the boys, in a gentlemanly way, took up the frog, carried it to the door, and threw it out. No sign or 4 enjoyment could be discerned in their faces. They remained through school hours retaining their solemn dignity. Afterward as they told of it thej r laughed until tho tears came, laughed over and over again as they re membered the dismay of the teacher. Why did they not laugh at first f They had not yet conic into tho ways of white men enough to realize that we would ex cuse rudene-ts in our pupils, even under these circumstances, and they consider It rude to laugh aloud or to laugh a! ail at tho expense of another in the other’:, pros ecco.
