MONDAY MORNING, MAT 3, 1869. The State Agricultural Convention. In the State Agricultural Convention which met in Columbia on Wednesday las and adjourned ou Thursday, there were on hundred and forty-seven delegates repre eenting twenty-five counties of the State and, if we may judge of the disposition ant temper of the people by the charaoter ant conduot of their representatives, the nevi Agricultural Society will be the means 01 stimulating and encouraging the develop? ment of every branch of industry. Thc delegates, as a body, were Bbrewd and ear? nest men; not dawdlers and visionaries, bul men of thought and experience, who are resolved to walk themselves in the broad path which they are marking out for others. They carefully avoided political debate and rhetorical flights of fancy, confining them? selves to those practical subjects upon whose proper treatment se muon of our prosperity depends. The. faot that politics were excluded from the deliberations of the convention was not due, however, to any misapprehension oi the grave uncertain ties of the times. There were in tho body veterans who had grown gray in public life, and whom no triok or subterfuge could mislead. But each delegate, ??hila admitting the aleas connexion which exists between our political condition"aiiu industrial status, felt that a oonvention as? sembled for the purpose of breathing sew life into the operations of the planter and mechanic, was not the place in which to denounoe Radicalism or exalt the horns of Democracy. This rule governed the con? vention from the first to the hut hour of its existence. The thoroughly practical frame of mind of the oonvention ?B best shown by the pub? lished reports of it? proceedings. AU the information in possession of Ute delegatee was laid before the body for its guidance, and committees were appointed to consider at their leisure those subjects with which a thorough and familiar acquaintance was necessary. We may, therefore, hope that by November next, when the first annual meeting of the Agricultural and Mechanical Society of South Carolina will be held, the committees will be prepared to present all the information that ean be obtained in re? gard to manufactures, emigration and labor, fencing, commercial fertilizers, the best method of cultivating cotton, rice and oom, the manufacture of sugar, fish culture and bee culture, and the use of agricultural and labor-saving implements. Each of these subjects will be closely examined, the en? deavor being to find out what are the surest and speediest ways of building up the State and restoring the prosperity of the people. And there is no doubt that the oonvention will do muon good beyond the organisation of the permanent society and the devising of means for obtaining agricultural and mechanical statistics. The particulars given of the success of the Newberry Immigra? tion Society, and the accounts given by Colonel Palmer in the article which we re? print this morning touching the cost of spin? ning yarns, will at once be spread through? out the State. They will not depend on newspaper circulation, but will be made known by the delegates themselves, who will tell their friends and neighbors, and explain 10 them, what they heard and saw in Columbia. In this way the news will be spread over all South Carolina; But it is not enough to hold a convention and organize societies. The society must be supported. It must have a plaoe for holding the annual fair, it must have a prize list, it must be able to pay its current expenses. To be able to do good, tho society must bo on a safo footing, and it can be firmly es? tablished by the fall if the limers and planters at once enroll their names and be? come members of the society. The sub? scription is but small, and we hope that the State press will urge their readers to send in their applications at once to Colonel D. Wyatt Aiken, the Secretary of the Society, at Cokesbury, so that by the time of the annual meeting there may be two or three thousand members. This can be done, and if the delegates to the Columbia Conven? tion bestir themselves, even more may be accomplished. like County Elections. The elections for echool commissioners, coroners, county commissioners and other officers, which take plaoe on the 28th of Way, should not be made party questions; nor, if it can be avoided, should party can? didates be run. Every citizen who relies for support upon his labor, or upon his in? come from his business or accumulated property, is interested in the economical administration of the affairs of the differ? ent counties. The county commissioners alone ?are power to levy a tax amounting in the aggregato to over half a million of dollars, and, apart from politics, it is surely important to stlect men who will levy no higher tax than is indispensably n?cessary, and will see that the public funds are prop? erly spent and accounted for. Thc candi? dates should be the best men that can be found-the most respectable and responsi? ble men in the different counties; for there is no offioe in the State so small that it should not be well filled, and which may not in the hands of ignorant and vicious persons do serious injury to many worthy people. As we have taid, every exertion should be made to avoid party issues in local affairs; but if the words of the RadioalB themselves are to bs trusted, they are determined to have a square party fight. A. J. Ransier, colored, member of the Legislature, County Assessor, Chairman of the Republican Central Executive Commit? tee, &o., kc, &o , has issued a circular, in which he calls the atteution of county chair? men to tho Executive proclamation for elec? tions to fill vacancies and oounty offices, and saja.- ?It is hoped that nominating ?conventions will be held in time, and jo "dicious selections be made, and that these "offioes be filled by the REPUBLICANS nomi "nated. Much depends upon the choice of f'Bu"h offioers." This ic a straightforward announcement of the determination of the party to have none bat "Republicans;" but as Ransier is not omnipotent, even with the ?county "chairmen," it may be possible, as it is wise, to avoid in many instanoes the contest which ho desires. One thing, however, must be plainly understood, and that is that the respectable people of the State are de? termined that honest and capable men only shall, from this time, be elected to offioe. They may occasionally be defeated; but as long as they make the test not politics, but integrity and respectability, they must in the main be successful. And where the Radicals foroe the fighting, and will have none but party measures and party men, they must be met with their own weapons without a thought of compromise or eva? sion. As it is to the Interest of all parties to avoid, in looal matters, the bitterness of battles politioal, Euch oases will probably be rare; but when they do ocour, if thc gage is promptly taken up and tho white people use all their influence, there will not be muoh doubt as to the result. We hope, then, for a good report from the approach? ing township and oounty elections. Tile Contested Election. Judgd Carpenter decided the quo war? rante case, on Saturday, in favor of Mr. Pillsbury and hts Board of Aldermen.* Un? der the circumstances, it was thought best that no appeal should bc made, and it ia expected that the new M tyor will be sworn Ca Ul ng Ont the Militia. The following nolie; has been posted up at the different plantations in the neighbor? hood of Monok's Corner. A seoond notice changed the time of mee ting to May 1st. : "NOTICE "Hereby Give to all Colored men that "A Maskmeiting is to hell at the new Baptia "Church on the Monck cornner Road on the 2 "day of May at 10 ton oclock A.

He then visited the Presi? dent, who said be waa glad to seo that he had got out of dinger, to which Sprague replied that he bad never been in any. He said be should deoline all invitations to speak in cities and towns on his way borne. He informed Senator Robertson that he should not make any improvement? at present in Columbia, S. C., where he mide large purchases of water power and land from the State, and agreed to forfeit the purchase money if certain improve? ments were not made within a year, five months of wbioh have already cone. Ho was asked why he did not go ahead, and replied he could not do anything while money was 25 per cent, per annum down there. G ESTE AL ELLISON CAPEBS, chairman of tho board, has made a report of the operations of the Greenville Peabody Schools for tho past 12 months. The donation of Mr. Peabody was $1000, and the individual subscriptions of citi? zens were $2306. With these funds three schools have been conducted : A primary school for beginners, an academic school for males, and an academic school for females, of which the expense was $2704. lu these schools 200 children havo beon taught, at an average cost of $4 05 per quarter for each scholar; and tho board is persuaded that one-third, at least, enjoyed educational advantages under this system which they could not otherwise have embraced at all. THE ABBEVILLE Agricultural Society is evi? dently making headway. A premium list is published embracing prizss in every depart mont of agriculture horticulture, mechanic il industry and domestic skill, and comprising enough to stimulate every one to pul forth a hand to make the next fair a great success. Tho value of tho prizes has not been fixed and will dopend upon thc number of subscriptions. The time of holding thc fair is also yet to be determined. SEVENTY-FIVE colored paupers have beon buried in Georgetown, at the expenso of the county, since tho middle of February. Nearly all the deaths are reporte J to have been caused by starvation, but tho Times says that there was plenty of employment for all who wore willing to work. A NEW weekly paper, the Gazette, has been established in Spartanburg. It is a well ar? ranged sheet and will doubtless prosper. The Gazette will givb especial attentiou to the in? dustrial interests and resources of the district in which it circulates. fm ^rts. jpHOTUGKAPII COLOKIXG.
