We therefore invite from all our fellow :itizens favoring this, their help and support." It is suppoeod that about as many more will j j ?gu the same. It is rumored that a Demo ratic meeting will be held here on Wednesday lext, and that General Wright, of the Augusta ?hronicle and Sentinel, or Judge Aldrich, or otb, will address the meeting. BARNWELL DISTRICT. "o the Editors of the News: A meeting of the citizens of Blackville took lace at the Market Hall, on the 21st instant, nd, on motion, Mr. M. F. Molony, the Intend nt, was callod to the chair. The following ire amble and resolutions were then offered by Ir. Arthur Buist, which, after a brief discus ion, were unanimously adopted : Whereas, with the unsettled political state f our country tending to anarchy; with re ources limited; with no capital; with labor Reorganized; with scarcity of means and sus enance; with general distrust of amendment n affairs, and impending financial and social uin, it becomes the citizen seriously to study he best mode of ameliorating his condition. .4nd ic^ereas, to the maxim that "in union here is strength" may be added that organi? zion conduces to power, and organization is ia essential element of successful unions, and mions are necessary in the accomplishment of >nds to which individual effort is inadequate, ? We. the citizens of Blackville and vicinity, a lo, therefore, propose to coalesce in action ? vith the great- political party of the Lnited t States, which has for its arm the constitutional ? inion of the country, attained by conservative , neans, and organize', by this meeting, a club j :o effect this coalition. Therefore, be it j Resolved, That we designate ourselves the ( Conservative Union Club of Blackville, S. C., j with a President, vice-President, Secretary j ind Executive Committee of two. Resolved, That we invite each election pre- J :incc to form similar clubs, and that a general ] rule be adopted thf.t the Executive Committees ? af etch club s ball meet at the courthouse on r the first Monday of each month to transact j business connected with the organization. , Resolved, That to the meetings of our club we invite our fellow-citizens who were or could have been voters under the original State Con? stitution, and solicit their names as members. Resolved. That our club [shall meeton the second and fourth Fridays of each month, at I 1 four o'clock P. M. Resolved, That it shall, by resolution, enact such rules for its government as it deems proper, but that its meetings shall be govern? ed by parliamentary usages, and its business be to further the prosperity and peace ?T the country, with a due consideration of the rights of all classes of persons. Resolced, That we regard it as the full privilege of each individual in this community, irrespective of class, to enjoy the truite of hiB labor, and the support and continuance of all good citizens, in advancing the general in? terests of the country. The meeting then proceeded to nominate ind elect the following officers : M. F. MOLONY, President. B, OAKMAN, vice-President. A. BUIST, Secretary. Executive Committee.-Bi. G. B. Lari i gue and Dr. S. B. Graham. Commitiee on Rules.-William H. Thomson, George E. Ryan, and M. G. Tobin. The meeting then adjourned. M. F. MOLONY, Chairman. A. BUIST, Secretary. RICHLAND DISTRICT.

THINGS IN WASHINGTON. WADE'S CABINET-SUMNER ATD THE ENGLISH MISSION. The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald, writing under date of the 19th inst., Baye: Various caucuses have been held at the pri? vate houses of Radical senators in order to make up a Cabinet for Mr. Wade, who is ex? pected to enter the White House by a snap judgment of the Jacobins. Here is their pres? ent programme: Secretary of State-Henry Wilson, of Massa? chusetts, or Samuel C. Pomeroy, of Kansas. Secretary of Treasury-Zachariah Chandler, of Michigan. Secretary of Interior-Wil?iam D. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, or John Covode, of Pennsylvania. Secretary of War-E. M. Stanton. Secretary of Navy-Charles D. Drake, of Missouri. Postmaster-General-John F. Farnsworth, of Illinois. Attorney-General-George F. Edmonds, of Vermont, or Matt Carpenter, of Iowa. Stanton is the master-spirit of this whole ar? rangement, with the aid of Chandler, Howard, and such like, who claim to be keepers of Wade and Grant. An effort was made for Greeley by Conkling and the email fry, but it was dismissed with little ceremony. New York is counted out as already lost to the Radicals. Sumner is working hard for the English mis? sion, as he did under Mr. Lincoln. THE NEW AT.ATIAMA BILL-TUT. GENERAL NEGBO SUFFBAGE ACT. ' A Washington telegram, of tho 20th inst., to the New York Commercial, says : The new bill for the admission of Alabama representatives to Congress is very distasteful to the majority of Republicans, bnt it will pro? bably be passed under the pressure of party necessity. The political campaign in the other States is* being organ? r manner that will insure the adoption i A? respective State Con? stitutions by the requisite majorities of actual voters. The bill for the adoption of negro suf? frage in all the States will be pushed by the extremists, in opposition to the warnings of the moderate Republicans, who predict that it will ruin the party. They say that a similar proposition lost Connecticut last year, and that this measure will prevent success in that State at the April election. Northern Farming in Florida. A Florida correspondent of the Boston Ad? vertiser says that the cotton and lumber busi? ness in that State, as conducted by Northern? ers, has not been a success. The business was ? ( overdone, and the returns were less than the in- | j vestments. The irrepressible Yankee has, how? ever, concluded to try again. The writer says: These misfortunes have not discouraged im- | ] migrants or immigration. Many cotton plant? ers have returned, it is true, but many more remain, and a?e turning their attention to other products. Here we see the difference in the character of the people. The Yankee is a man of resources. Cotton failing, he tries something else. But the Floridian who has \ lost faith in cotton, folds his hands and lets t bis fields lie waste. He may talk of sutrar or T oranges, but he does not show his faith by his ( works. Of the new enterprises and new ex- c periments in the State, nine-tentbs are made j. by Northern men, who form but an m con sider- c ible fraction of the whole population. ? Perhaps the most important of these experi- ? menta is market gardening. New Englanders, t who had spent a year in this climate, were ?j struck by the fact that garden vegetables ma- f tured here about three months earlier than in ? ;he North. They observed, also, that many a vegetables planted in the fall were ready for g ?e table in mid winter. The soil produced vegetables very well, and it was inferred that, sith the prices paid for early vegetables in Northern cities, a market garden could be nade the source of great profit. These market gardens, ?o far as I know, are ill owned by Northern men. They propose to urnieh the Northern markets with green peas a March, Irish potatoes in April and May, nelone in May and June, tomatoes in May, nd lettuce, radishes, cucumbers, turnips, ixe., very month in the year. The estimated profits re fearful to contemplate. Nothing lees than 1000 an acre is thought of. Three hundred lushels to the acre ie not at all a large crop of omatoes; $10 a bushel ie the common price for hem in New York in May, and it cost less than 1 a bushel to ship them. Ten less one is ine. Nine times three hundred is twenty even hundred. AB an onset, the writer mentions the fact hat the seasons are treacherous, that frosts a March often bite shrewdly, and that such a rost would reduce $2700 an acre to a mere othing. Then again the means of shipment re yet limited, and if the crops prove profita le, and vessels do engage in the trade, prices rould go down and the profits on the acre ron] J be materially diminished. In that case, towever, there would still be a handsome re rard to the larmer. As to tho average crop, he writer 6ays: Almost all the market gardeners have planted heir grounds with orange trees, and. indeed, ilmo8t every Yankee on the St. John's, what iver may be his business, has a youncr orchard ?f from fifty to a thousand trees. The hun Ireds of immigrants to the Iudian River are banting groves as well; and on tho banks of l,akes Griffin and Harris, and the Ohlamaha ?iver, I find new groves everywhere. On the }ulf Coast, 1 am told, there is similar activity n planting. A few ave grafting the treeB where hey stand in the hammocks, thus securing rrovee without transplanting. A Northern nan on Lake Griffin bought forty acres of ?ammock land, cleared away the other trees ind left standing 4500 orange trees to graft. Thus at an expense of perhaps a thousand dol? are he will secure a grove which, at present prices, would yield a thousand dollars an acre within four years. THE JOHNBON-GBANT COBBESPONDENCE ABEOAD.-The London Saturday Beview thinks that General Grant "on his own show? ing has been guilty of some rather sharp prac? tice toward bis superior."' The actual admis? sions which Grant makes, and which have been BO prominently placed before American readers, are repeated, while, with regard to Grant's conduct in not resigning hie position as Secretary ad inlenm, and restoring the place to the possession and disposition of the President from whom he derived his appoint? ment, the Beview says: Even if no promise had been given, General Grant ought not, with the full knowledge of the President's intentions possessed by him, to have hesitated a moment about resigning his office as soon as he found he could no longer act as an instrument for carrying out those in? tentions. So long as his resignation was with? held, the President naturally counted on his support; and, for the lon? argument which he describes himself as having held with the President on Saturday, the 11th, there should have been substituted the most unmistakable act of resignation. La this respect it is impos? sible to acquit General Grant. It is to be re? gretted that his present relations with the Re? publican party should supply an obvious motive for conduct of which, in tue absence of that pressure, he would probably have been incap? able. This apparently moderate way of "putting it" is as cutting as it is quiet. ANOTHER KEBOKENE EXPLOSION.-The latest illustration of the danger is furnished by the following from the Detroit Press. About eleven o'clock last evening a kerosene lamp ex? ploded in the Western Union Telegraph office, whioh, but for prompt action, would have re? sulted in a serious conflagration. Owing to the freezing of the gas pipe outside of the building, the office had been supplied with kerosene lamps, and Mr. Priest, night man? ager, was sitting at a table almost in front of j one of them, engaged in receiving the press report, when the lamp exploded with a loud report, scattering the fragments inaehower about bim and throwing the burning oil over over the table and upon the paper on which he waswritine: at the time, 'i he table took fire and blazed up fiercely, when by covering it with some cloth, it was smothered and further dam? age prevented. The lamp was over half full of eil and was supplied with a good and sufficient wick, and no defect in any snape was known to exist. A matt of Court Scandal. THE SQUABBLE ABOUT "PTBST LADT," ETC., NAB BATED BT A FEMALE CLEBK-BBS. S WIS G HELM ON MES. 8ENAT0B SFBAO?E AND PEES LD EST JOHNSON-HOW THE KUCHEN TALKS ABOUT THE PABLOS. Mrs. Swiashelm writes from Washington to the Pittsburg Gazette: A paragraph is going the rounds of the pa fers to the effect that; Mrs. Sprague is bringing er influence to bear on her husband and father in favor of President Johnson and against im? peachment. There may be more in this than a casual observer would suppose. The ques? tion of rank or precedence is not more closely contested in any European court than in our Republican capital. Colonel Benton and Chief Justice Taney had a little feud, which only ended with their lives, about precedence. Should a United States Senator rank a Judge of the Supreme Court ? That was the question which the haughty persistence of the eagle faced Colonel bat partially settled in the affirma? tive; for, although a United States Senator will not often condescend to leave his card for a J. S. C., the J. S. C's are slow to acknowledge then: duty to pay the respect of a call upon a TJ. S. S. Of course this is a question in which ladies take an active interest, and no one has distin? guished herself more in it than Mrs. Sprague. In the early days of the war, the young Gov? ernor of Rhode Island, who raised a regiment at his own risk, and went to suppress the re? bellion, was quite a hero of romance. Loyal ladies were not BO abundant in Washington, as after Lee's surrender; and, what with her wit, beauty, gracious manners, her father's posi? tion, and the affianced of the Rhode Island milhonaire-patriotic-Governor-Colonel, M i B s Chase occupied a very prominent position, and believed herself entitled to precedence as "first lady" in the government. She contested her claim with Mrs Lincoln, who, as "Lady of the White House," was by common consent, awarded that eminence. There" bad been several passages at armB between them, and Mrs. Lincoln felt deeply aggrieved when Alias Chase was at the White House, either by special invitation, or to introduce some friends, I forget which, Mrs. Lincoln, in an j 1 amiable desire to promote harmony, reminded ] \ ber that she had not seen her for some time, and honed she would call again soon. Mrs. 'Spiague haughtily replied that she bad generally been at home, and that if Mrs. Lin? coln had wished to see her she could most probably have done so by returning her pre? vious call. My informant, a lady who was pre? sent at the time, thought Miss Chase's manner IB offensive as the open claim to equal rank unjust and injudicious, and felt that Mrs. Lin coin was fully justified in ever afterwards re Fusing to treat her with any pretense of kind? ness, or to attend her wedding. Those who ?new the history of Miss Chase's refusal to ?ccord to Mrs. Lincoln the precedence to which me was unquestionably entitled, felt that Mr. Lincoln did wrong in attending that wed ling, and thus giving the haughty bride a tri ?mph over his wife. Mrs. Sprague's desire to be "First Lady" tmounts almost to a mania; and, no doubt, has mich to do with her father's presidential aspi ations. While Mr. Johnson is President she rill have little active opposition in her claim to hat dignity in light to her treble rank of real th, wife of a Senator:, and daughter of the Jhief Justice; for Mrs. Patterson is a woman if Little or no self-assertion. What with the Qtemperance of her husband and brother, the are of her invalid mother and ber four chil Iren, she has little time to attend to the digni y of her position, and, with her earnest de vo? lo n to her father, would defer to Mrs. Sprague, f by so doing she could win any support to that atber. On the other hand, Mrs. Wade will told any .position to which she may be ssigned, and -which she expects. If Mrs. Ipragne has ever undertaken to assert ny superiority over her, the sprightly and spiring lady no doubt retired from the onflict feeling that ehe had won no laurels. Irs. Wade is very unpretending in ber dress nd manners, and to see ber and her husband i a street car, as I have done, returning from hospital visit, after Senate hours, one might listase them for a well to do farmer and his ale old wife; but th are is'a reserved force of ood sense and dignity m. her manner which .ould make itself felt in the lowest hovel or mst brilliant drawing room. If she goes into Liu White House, there will be no room for dis ute as to who is the "First Lady" in this De< locratic land. Hence there is no donbt Mrs. prague would not wish to see her in that posi? on, especially as Mrs. Wade, in common with bousands of the people of Ohio, must remem er. with grave disapproval, the youthful folly f the spoiled beauty wbo brought public scan al on her father's administration while be was lovernor of that State. Even at that school .irl age she had sufficient tact and influence nth him to baffle his wisest counsellors in heir efforts to remove her favorite, a hand ome, dissolute, married man. from his posi ion under tho government. One morning tbe !ity of Columbus was thrown into great cx itement by the announcement, in the mora? ng paper, that the Governor had undertaken o horsewhip the handsome gentleman, and tad been shot in the rencontre; but Miss Kate hitched the helm so firmly ns to carrv her lit le barn through the storm without throwing 1er Jonah overboard. Her influence with her ather is almost unlimited, and to that source fas ascribed his active opposition to an in rease of salary to female clerks at a time when hey received $G00 a year, and she paid just his amount for a wedding veil. Mrs. Wado is so thoroughly her opposite, be Dg heart and soul interested in all true efforts o aid the lowly, while maintaining her own lignitv, rendering honor to whom honor is lue, that there is no doubt in my mind but Ire. Sprague will strain every nerve to prevent ter being placed in a position to dispose of 1er own claim to the title of "First Lady." JANE G. 8WISSHELM.
