If the retenue reform people control the Chicago Con; venlioo, bayard is how considered a.s a very available candidate. His pure rec ord'and high character arc adm ?t? d even by bi? enemies, ile has another advan tage. He ii a poor man. One observer, in ?peaking of thia point, i>aid : 'I it.ink it would bc a good thing to nominate a poor man. It wiii be easier lo collect money for Bayard than i'. would be for a man who represent* merely a barrel/ We trust thatiiuch a consideration may bc reached in the National C invention aa the nomination of.M*. Bayard, lit ia pre-eminently an able, pure aid upright statesman who, we believe, the Democrat* could elect President, and in electing whom they would honor themselves and greatly benefit the country. The political prosecutions have Le n discontinued by the United States gov ernment, ami thc pc'/p?e of the C?tate breathe frett for the assurance thal their friends and fellow citizens are not lo be continually harassed with prosecution? without cause, founded <>n perjured evi dence. The announcement of District Attorney Melton that he bad recommen ded the dismissal of these canis ?A a'?o reassuring, and wc may hope that it . evinces a remaining spark of manhood and high feeling, which may yet assert itself and keep bim in fulure ([om lend ing bi? splendid abilities to such work ns theo? prosecutions have been hereto fore. No one blames Mr. Melton for prosecuting cases which were sent up to the Court. Kvon if they were trivial he had the right to have them passed on by the Court, but every right-minded man is obliged to condemn in unmeasured terms his efforts to pack juries for thc purpose of securing partisan verdicts upon partisan, and in many instances, perjured testimony. It is a discredit to his reputation to have prostituted his abilities to so base a purpose, and it will require years of proper conduct .?. him to efface it. The dir m Usai of (beso ca res is a step in thc right direction, and we hopi it will bc followed by many others which will restore the District Attorney to that position of confidence and respect which he ?o unnecessarily and inexcusably lost by the conduct of these cases which ho now dismisses. Thc fears of those who oppose the Educational Hill in Congress seem to us very imaginary. They do not criticise the present measure much, but say they fear it may lead to future political trou ble. Thia is what is familiarly termed borrowing trouble. For fear thatbad thing may como in the future, they pro pose to refuse a good thing nt present. It will be itnpo?hiblo for the United State* government tn interfere in ?ur lo cal affairs without both branche* of Congress and tho President are Republi can, and if they oro Republican they could pass a new bill as cosy or easier if the present bill is defeated as tl.cy could amend the present bill if it become* law. Tberolsjust as much danger of federal interference without the preses! law aa with it. Such i u ter Terence ls imaginary in both cases. The present bill only gives the money out of tho h demi treas ury to our State comrnou schools. There is no federal officer to disburse it. Un der it the entire management of the Bchools-tho selection of teachers and everything pertaining to its administra tion-is left to the State. Therefore, if we are to have a common school system half supported by the State, it seems to un that it would be very desirable to have the other half given to the State from some other source. We regret that aome of our representatives in Congrcsa arc taking counsel of their fears, and oppos ing this important measure. We hope, however, that lt will be passed by tb o House and become a law. It cannot hurt the South and will annual!* bring into this Stato about four hundred thou sand dollars for eight years. TIIK BEPUnLIOANSTATKCO^iVKKTION. The Republican State Convention met in Columbia on Tuesday, the 15th inst., at 12 o'clock m., ?nd organized by tho election ol Representative Thomas Smalls as President. Tho Convention, after a numberof speeches, adopted the follow ing resolutions . Miller, of Beaufort, introduced the following preamble and resolutions, which were unanimously adopted : Whereas.it has been the will of an Al mighty Providence to remove from our midst two of our most faithful members, to wit: Hon. E. W. M. Mackey and Hon. E. A. Brabham ; be it JRctofoed, That we unite in expressing oar sincere grief and extend our deepest sympathies to their bereaved families. That in the loss of Hon. E. W. M. Mackey, our distinguished and able Chairman, the Republicans have been ?horn of their most competent, constant, true and persevering head; one who knew the wants of the party, and always, without fear or favor, maintained them ; ooo who risked all that were dear to mankind at all times for the principles he cherished and advocated. That ia his loss a vacancy bas been created which ia difficult to fill, and his counsel attd tact of leadership will be keenly felt . Be it JRaohed, That In the death of Hon. E. A.

EolTOIt: We congratulate the friend* of temperance upon their victory in Edgefield, sud hope that the rouit of ?.heir municipal election will not be of no effet, for a dry ticket not enforced by the tnuuicipal authorities is worse than a wet ticket with restrictions effec tively enforced, lt requires norn in au thority of nerve ami resolution to enforce a law where a considerable minority are attempting to defeat it, and if Edgeftcld bas elected such men as Intendant and Wardens, she will uer good results come from the ??ry ti'.-kel ; if not, a reaction will take place in the amids of tho peo ple, and at tho next election kvJgeneld will he wet airain. Much good has been effected in An dcrton by thc enforcement of the restric tions oo retailing spirituous liquors by our present city government, anil by ?he punishment of public ?Intnkenness. No mau has a right to rxpo.se himself to public view in a ?tate of intoxication. The public have some rights, and on? of them is that those who desiro to walk the streets shall be permitted to do BO with out seeing meit drunk. When mea aro laugh', they cannot appear in public in a *taU> of ixtoxiea tion, thoo will they begin to guard moro against drunkenness. As long us alcohol aiono is censured, and t'ne man who gets drunk utily pitied, 70 long will drunLonntsi continue. This much we say in defense of tho ordi nance of tho City of Anderson against drunkenness, and in oxplanation of why a ?ood many cases of drunkenness are tried by the Mayor. The law is oo forced, and il is a raro thing to see a man intoxicated upon tho streets of Anderson. The enforcement of this law IIUH been thc cau-e of reformation of some, and cases of drunkenness are not near so frequent now us they wero a few months ?go. We then say, let the luw, whether it is restriction or prohibi tion, be coforced, and the temperance cause will receive nu impetus which will do more towards bringing about the re sult that all temperance workers desire, than can be effected in any other way. The enforcement of thc laws, not only against violations ii: retailing, but aguinst public drunkenness, aid have a tendency to make drunkenness more dis reputable, and society will be more in terested in the enforcement of tho law after seeing its results. B. Colonel Cash's Appeal. CABII'S DEPOT, H. C., April 18, 1884. Editor Columbia Jiiyisttr : There is now and will be great destitution and ...tiller ing among the poor people of Cbestiiield County, and already there ia a cry for brend. I foresaw what was to bo our situation and made arrangements with bankers in your city for s loan of #5,000, that I might be in condition lo assist those in need ; but after my son ?hot the policeman, "Palmer & San" broke their engagement with me without assigning any valid reasou for their course. Since then, I have tried in vain (iu every quar ter where I ?upposed money could be borrowed) to obtain a torin, but our bankers Bsem "bomb proof* against all my applications. I now appeal to the readers of yohr paper, and beg the loan cf $100 or $500 or $1,000. My note or bond ls good for thousands of dollars, and every dollar borrowed shall be re turned (with interest) before the end of the present year, and ereru dollar borrow rd ehalt be given by me ana at my expense to the poor. . I ask no mau to eire, only lend, that I rosy give, thst will coat tho lender nothing. It may be said or sup posed that I make this appeal and prop osition for effect and to appease public eeutiment. Not one bit of that. Neith er I or my son ask for mercy or pity. We ask for nothing bot Justice and we can obtain that in Chesterfield "without money and without price." E. B. C.

Mr. Mellon then read a circular which had beeb addressed to him by Attorney (ieuersl Brewster of October .il, ls-j, iu winch specific instructions are given Ibe United Stales Attorneys concerning cer tain of their duties in respect lo the elcc tiuna ut which Congressmen arc chosen. ? The circular among other things says : j "By Section 1,982 you aro authorized and required to institute prosecutions against all persons violating any of these penal ' provisions, included iu Chap.

Yuri have only to give the voters a?9urauce that you will certainly bring the whole power of thc law lo their relief and every vio lation of their rights will be reported to you ; for every voter knows when hil freedom is assailed by force, threats, in timidation, or orlberwiae, as described iu Sections 5,611 and 5,920, and no voter willingly suffers ^ ich degradation. You will not fail to give such assurance and mako il good."

The circular courfudes as follows: "If lhere is occasion in your District for the observance of ibese directions, or any of them, you will so report and proceed at once lo act on them. If in your judg ment there is no occasion for their eu forcement, you will so report, ntatitig hiich facts a.s lca?l you to that conclusion, ami unless otherwise directed will not bo expected to observe the same." I have to say, continued Mr. Melton, that in carrying out as far as I was able these instructions, (and I trust I will not he held amenable to (be charge of hav ing in any way omitted my duty in this matter,) 1 have hail thc earnest sympa thy of the departmentOfjo?tice through out my efforts and the Attorney-General's most ready co operation iu the discharge of my duty. Officer* have been appoint ed specially charged willi most of tho duties here described and they have done in the matter I suppose what they could. At tie last term of the Court the ensw again came up for trial. They wero brought under these specific direction.? contained in tho circular I have read, and they terminated with the same result -mistrials. I am now persuaded thoroughly convinced-that in ibo pres ent condition of public sentiment of a large proportion uf the people of this State, convictions in these casca are im possible, and because I am so convinced * have deemed it proper-indeed my July-to the Government as well as to the people of the State, to represent the matter as it is lo the Attorney-General of the United States. This I did in February last, ray friend, the assistant District-Attorney, tho lion. R. B. Car penter, on au otlicial visit to Washingtou having conveyed lo the Attorney General my judgment and recommendation iu reference to the matter. In reply to this I have received tetter from lue Attor ney-General, dated March 15, 18S4, which I will read : DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, I WASHINGTON, March 10,1884. / S. W.

Onec?ais comprises the ultra republican ?ectioual i.?ts who pretend that they are uot will ing to tru-t the States of the South with (hu expenditure of the appiopriation. The other class is composed of Southern u:en, who cherish notions of States rights to which the toil is repugnant. This lat ter class i? small, but a representative of it happens to te tb.* Chairman oi" the Committee on Education, a position that Bill make his opposition more etlective than it otherwise could he. I reiVr to Colonel D. Wyatt Aiken, of South Caro lina I a<tked bim what the prospects of the Blair hill were iu Ibo Hou.se. Ie aaid : ' J really do not know. The ll lia? Lever come before our committee. I am opposed to it and believe I could kit! it ?ri the committee if I wanted to oppose it by that method. Hut if Mr. Willis ol Kentucky chooses to take charge of i: in the committee ?.od push it through, perhaps no serious opposition will be offered and it may bo reported favorably to tho House. TL en I shall oppose it there." "What are your objections to the bill?-' "I have many, fn the Grst place, I don't believe thi?. is a ?"roper subject for federal legislation Education is the duty or the individual. It may cil-nd beyond tbs limit of personal responsibil ity to tho State, but beyond tho State it bas t.j business to go for ai l. Then, there .ire nome features of the bill I dis like. li lequire* the strictest account to he given in frequent reports from ibo governor nf each .-'tate as to thc manner ol expending tho federal appropriation, thc apportionment of it between while* and blacks, the number of pupils, the books used and a great many other things. These reports tro to the Commissioner of Education, ile then make* from th^ui a report to tho Secretary of the interior who lays the matter before Congress with auch recommendations as be sees proper. Thal is going through too many bands to suit me. Tho bill will uot lighten the burden of the school sy?tom on our peo ple for no State can receive from tho fed eral fund more than il raises from its own people. Confessedly tba main ob ject of tho bill it to educate tho negroes. I believe they are receiving their just share of the school fund iu the Southern State?, and that it is sufficient for all their ?ducation-:! needs at present." "V/heo you say you are opposed to the bill, dc you mean the Blair bill ur the general theory it embodies ?" "I am opposed to any hill to give national aid to education. The Willis bill now before my committee is bettor than the Blair bill, but I am opposed to anything ot the Lind." .Do you think mauy of tho Southern members ngree with you ?" "I believe thc general sentiment among them is favorable to some bill on this question. 1 have heard bul one other S.millern Congressman express opposition to the principle. That wan Mr. Tillman, of South Carolina." Mr. Willis, of Kentucky, who is en thusiastic on this subject says: "I am confident thal tho bill will pass the Bouse." Mr. Willis will have charge of tho lilair bill iu committee and in the House. General Dibrel), of Tennessee, thinks there will bo very few Southern *otes Mgaimit the bill. Mr. Clements, who baa done much work for this cause since he entered Con gress, think-: the only trouble will be in getting a hearing for tho bill, but thinks that will be overcome, and the bili passed at this sessiou. Senator Brown und Senator Colquit say thal the bill might have been made to please them better insomo particulars, but it is a good measure as it ?tamis, and will be of incalculable benefit lo the South. Senator Blair, after thc most in defatigable labor for his bill in the Sen ate, has turned his attention to the Homo. He bas received the moat encouraging assurances from representatives of both partier* and ail sections. The general disposition of tbs friends of tba bill ie to pass il without amendment, if it is changed in the slightest particular there is dauger of starting back aud lortb be tween tho House?, and finally letting it fall through.

No, I don't think I g"t drunk at Cash's h< use, tho fact is Ca.-h had no whiskey win u I was '.nerf. I had a little out in my buggy and told the Colonel about il, when he ?aid that Le Lad none to offer me r.nd he vent out to my buggy au-J took a drink of mine. I saw no evidence of intoxication anywhere. I went home from Col. Cash's and waa nick. I am troubled with dyspepsia ar, 1 rheumatism, ? hud a pian for -itcuring Le ?rrt'i'. of Boggao Ca?h which I Leitet -.enid have bsen successful had I no*, been interfered nub. ? do not blame Governor TL;>? sou for the courte Lc pursued ia ibis matter, but my plans did not work out because they wero not allowed limo. My fi?t plan tor the arrest wai to put Ino men on ibe (raia OD tho Ch era w and Darlington Road and run thom up sod down the road for several days. I had beard that Dongau bad Lceu ?-.etu at the depot, and my idea was that if bo should I show himself at the depot while my dep * utie* were cn tLe train, il would bo an I ea?y thing to lake bim. If this plan failed I iuteudod t? raicea .-?ufScieot p..*-e to go down aod surr? und Ca.sh'? house ; an<i capture him, mid I think I would have succeeded in my purpose. I was j just aLoiit getting ready io go doini on I thc Monday after the Sunday on which Col. Cash was arrested, bul I beard thal the ?Male constabulary woro on the I ground and I gavo up my intention. 1 . wm satisfied that it would nov; be otterly j uao!e>-s to attempt to capture Boggao io ' the Tee Deo swamp with a posse, for he ? kuows every foot of it and I had beeil ; informed that bo had videttes uo post all '? the time. I was also pretty well sati-tied i '.hat Dolhirig could be mentioned in Che j raw about getliog up a pr^-o but thkt Cash would be infirmed of i. in a few minutes. So 1 had to proceed with cau tion, and did not intend to make known my course of action. In reference to this matter I think I was unjustly and un kindly treated. SiierifT Spafford spoke frankly and without the lean embarrassment. What ever may have been hi* condition on tho day he is said lo have taken a toddy with Colouel Cash be certainly was not drunk up lo a late hour yesterday afternoon and apparently had no notion of getting iulo that condition. "A Breez' " Ia thc- l?GBse. WASHINGTON, April is.-In the limite, on motion of McMillan, of Ten nr--ef, the bill limiting to two years tbe time within which prosecutions may be instituted against persons charged with violating internal revenue laws was taken up for consideration. White, of Kentucky, took advantage of the brief debate on tiie bill to criti cise the action of Hie Springer Committee in stopping the investigation of the char ge? against (iovernor Murray, of Utah. The man under investigation had said ho was not guilty and called upon Justice Harland and Speaker Carlisle to testify to his good character. Thereupon the investigation hud ceased; and not only that, but the committee bad proposed to investigate bia ( White's) character. He reiterated his charges against Murray the man whom Mrs. Hayes bad appoint ed an Governor of Utah. Miller, of Pennsylvania, called the gentleman to order for not addressing biniHeif to the bill under consideration, but the House decided ibat White might be permitted to proceed in order. But White continued to talk in the same strain, whoa Milter again called bim to order. The Speaker thought that the remarks of the gentleman were not relevant to the bill. White ?sid that the difference between the Speaker and himself was that while he had been endeavoring to defend the rights of thc poorest people in his State the Speaker had been endeavoring to get bills through Congress for tbe biggest whisky monopolies in the State of Ken tucky. Miller demanded that these v/orjs be taken dows as unparliamentary. The Speaker-"The chair desires that ibo words should not br taken down, and that no notice should be taken of them." I Applause on both sides of the chain Mtllerthercupon withdrew bis demand, but insisted ibat the gentleman should proceed io order or not?t all. The Speaker-"The Chair will endeav or to enforce the rules of the Homo." Cannon, of Illinois, suggested that great latitude had been always permitted to members in speaking, and that their remarks were not confined to the provis ion? of the special bill under considera tion. The 8peaker replied that, while of bis own opinion, be would not interfere with the course of a gentleman's remarks, but when the point was raised by another member be was bound to decide the question in accordance wiih the rules. Miller said that be did not rail? tho point nut nf any ill-feeling toward tho gentleman from Kentucky, but bs did object to the lime of Ibo House being taken up io the settlement of differences which one member of Congress might have with some other one. A member had the utmost liberty tn debate, and could not be called to account for hts utterances, and that liberty ought ont to be abused. The House ought not to permit any member to abaca bis privilege and say anything derogatory to the character of any mao. White then proceeded io order, sod at the conclusion of his speech the bill was passed. - Gen.
