closed by saying that ho should endeavor to

marks had a buoyant cSoct on the market gen?
erally.
-The recent order issued from tho War De?
partment, ordering the opening of recruiting
offices in several of the principal oities, has
given rieo to a good deil of speculation, and
considerable interest is manifested to knew
the meaning of this sadden order of General
Sherman. Some argue that it looks to an early
recognition of Cuba by our government, and
others ?hat trouble is apprehended with Great
Britain growing out of the settlement of the
Alabama claims. It having been r soortainod,
since the consolidation of the army into twenty
five regiments, that a goon many regiments
have not more than one-half tho nnmber of
men required, and that in a few months the
time of enlistment of a large number of three
I years' men will expire, thus reducing the army
one-third, it was deemed necessary by General
Sherman, in view of these facts, to open re?
cruiting ofilcos in order to bring the army up
to the proper standard and the ' requirements
of law. '"

The State Agricultural Convention.
In the State Agricultural Convention
which met in Columbia on Wednesday las
and adjourned on Thursday, there were ont
hundred and forty-seven delegates repre?
senting twenty-five counties of the State
and, if we may judge of the disposition ant
temper of the people by the. character anc
conduct of their representatives, the new
Agricultural 8ooiety will be the means o
stimulating and encouraging the develop
ment of every branch of industry. Th<
delegates, as a body, were shrewd and ear
nest men; not dawdlers and visionaries, bu
men of thought and experience, who ari
resolved to walk themselves in the brest
path which they are marking out fer others
They carefully avoided political debate am
rhetorical flights of. fancy? confining them
selves to those practical subj eota upon whosi
proper treatment so muoh of our prosperity
depends.
The faot that po litios were excluded fran
the deliberations of tho convention W?S no
due, however, to any misapprehension o
the grave uncertainties of the times. Thcr
were in the body veterans who had grow:
gray in public life, and whom no trick o
Subterfuge could mislead. But each delegate
while admitting the close connexion whio
exists between our; political condition an
industrial status, felt that a convention .at
sembled for the purpose of breathing nc
life into the operations of the planter An
mechanic, WAS not the place in which 1
denounce Radicalism or exalt the horns i
Democracy. This rule governed the coi
ventiou from the first to the last hour of i
existence.
The thoroughly practical frame of min
of the convention is best shown by the pul
lished reports of Its proceedings. All tl
information in possession of the delegate
was laid before the body for its guidano
and committees were appointed to oonsidi
at their leisure those subj cots with whit
a thorough and familiar acquaintance wt
necessary. We may, therefore, hope th
by November next, when the first annu
meeting of the Agricultural and Mechanic
I Sooiety of South Carolina will be held, tl
! committees will be prepared to present i
tho information that oan be obtained in i
I gard to manufactures, emigration and labt
fencing, commercial fertilisers, the bi
method of cultivating cotton, rio? and coi
the manufacture of sugar, fish cuitare ai
bee culture, and the use of agricultural a:
labor-saving implements. Each of th?
subject's will be closely examined, the e
deavor being to find out what aie t
surest and speediest ways of building up t
State and rostering the prosperity of t
people.
And there is no doubt that the oohventi
will do muoh good beyond the organizat:
Of the permanent sooiety abd tba devil)
of means for obtaining agricultural .
mechanical statistics. The particulars gil
of the eucoees of the Newberry Immig
tion Sooiety, and the ncoounts given
Colonel Palmer in the article which we
print thia morning touching the cost of sp
wing yarns, will at once be spread throuj
out th? State. They will' not depend
newspaper oiroulaticn, but will be ?ti
knowh by the delegates ' themselve s, y
will tell their friends and neighbors* j
explain to them, what they heard and i
in Columbia. In this way the news \
be spread over ali South Carolina,
I j But it is not enough to hold a o on ven t
and organise societies. . The society mast
supported. It must have a plocs fdr hold
j the annual fair, it mutt have a prise list

To bo able to do good, the sooiety must
on a safe footing, and it oan be firmly
tabiiohed by the fall if th? farmers
planters at once enroll their names and
oom? member^ of the society. The ?
sorlption ia but small, and we hep? that
State press will argo their readers to s
in their applications at ono? to Celene
Wyatt Aiken, the Secretary of th? Sooi
at Cokeebury, so that by the time of
annual mealing thor? may be two or tl
thousand members. Thia :*gk? he doa?,

tion bestir themselves ?van more may

oom? from hi? business or aooumul

Administration of tba affairs of th? di
eat counties. ' Th? county commissi?
alone have power to levy a tax amounting
in the aggregate to over half a million of
dollars, and, apart from politics, it ia surely
importaut to o eic ct men who will levy no
higher tax than is indispensably necessary,
and will see that the public funds are prop?
erly spent and acoounted for. The candi
dates should be the best men that oatt be
found-the moat respectable and responsi?
ble men in the different counties; for there
is no offloe in the State so small that it
should not be well filled, and whioh may not
in the hands of ignorant and vicious persons
do serious injury te many worthy people.
Aa we have said, every exertion should be
made to avoid party issues in local affairs;
but if the words of the Radicals themselves
are to be 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, &c, Ac, &o , has issued a circular,,in
whioh he oalls the attention of oounty chair?
men to ?he Executive proclamation for elec?
tions to fill vacancies and oounty ofliocs,
and says: "It is hoped that nominating
?conventions will be held in timo, and ju?
dicious selections be made, and that these
"efftoes be filled by the REPUBLICANS xromi
"nated. Muon depends upon the ohoioe of
"suoh officers."
This is a straightforward announcement
of the determination of the party to have
none but "Republicans;", but as Ransier is
not omnipotent, even with the "oounty
"chairmen," it may be possible, as it is
wise, to avoid in many instances the contest
which he 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 office.
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 suooeBsfuL And where the
Radioals ?force the fighting, and will have
none but party measures and party men,
they mu8t bo met with their own weapons
without a thought of compromise or eva
sion. As it ia to the interest of all parties
to avoid, in local matters, the bitterness of
battles political, suoh oases will probably
be rare; but when they do occur, if the
gage is promptly taken up and the white
people use all their influence, there will not
bo much doubt as to the result. We hope,
then, for a good report from the.approach
ipg township and.oounty elections.

he did not go ahead, and replied he could not
do anything while money was 25 per bent, per

GBSXBAX ELLISON CAMUS, chairman of the
board, has made a report of the operations of !
the Greenville Peabody Schools for the paat12
I months?, The donation of Mr. Peabody waa
?1000, and the individual subscriptions of mil? |
.sosa were $2806. - With these funds three
schools have been conducted : A primary school
.for beginners'; an academic school for malos,
and ari academicbehool for females, of which
the expense iras 12704. In these schools 20?
? cl?ldren have been taught, at sn average cost j
of H 05 per quarter for each j scholar ; and the
board is persuaded that one-third? at least?
j enjoyed educational advantages under this i
systera whioh tb ey could not otherwise have
embraced at all.
