[FROM O?B OWN OOBBESP 'NDE.1T ]
Ct>L?MBi\, May 8.-Tbe Agricultural Con?
vention ii felt to have been i decided success
to have done quite aa mach as it waa reasona?
ble to expect of a body comprising so many,
and in some instances, rival if not directly con?
flicting, interests. Twenty-four counties were
represented by delegates, and these represent?
ed every branch of industry and every sec?
tion of th a t tate. There were a hundred and
fifty-two delegates present. A perusal of tho
proceedings will show that the who e matter
iaytt inceptive, and that all the results aro
only to grow out of these beginnings. It is,
however, saf ; to predict that the moat vitally
important advantages will oome to South Car?
olina, nit jough there lie ahead m my causes to
interfere with these high bo, es.
THE PA,T WEES.
The jam and discomforts of overcrowd in cr
made the greater portion cf the past week
anything but delightful On Tuesday there
was a larger crowd than - Colombia has known
since the war, and on Wednesday the railroad
men estimate that at least a thousaud more
were added. The general estimate is that
there were here Thursday three thousand vis?
itors. The destitution of room that Columbia
bas felt e\ er since Sherman's visit, was made
utter by the demand for tbreo thousand addi?
tional berths. The hotels all had crammed
into them titty per cent, beyond their utmost
capacity of comfort; and by day all through
the city might be seen extemporizad picnics
enfam tte, with rural abandon, upon the sward,
under the trees, and everywhere. By night
these same picnickers slept wherever fortune
found lodgings for them, aud fortune' was kept
busy try them. Private bouses were opened
liberally, and, after many turnings and many
questions, the great many were dormi toned
somewhere. On Friday morning a deluge left,
and on Saturday, the rest.
IRE COUNT! ELECTIONS.
rho "tnrormality" already related in TEX'
MEWS, of trying to push through the elections
of township officers on the 27th ult. without
fair notice, was arrested in the Columbia
Township. There are four townships in Btob
land Coan ty, Columbia being Mo. 1. The trick
o? posting obscure notices (only one in the oity,
ind that torn down by au intentional accident
immediately,) and one notice in the Phoenix on
the morning of the election, has been exposed.
The election was stopped by snob protest as
the managers could u t withstand. In the
three other townships, however, elections were
bald; at least the official results aro publish?
ed in Sunday morning's Pheonix. The not,ces
seem to have been regular in the country
townships; at least many of the parties elected
are our beet ?tisane, and this indicates fair?
ness in their selection. i
The chairman of the Boara oTEicctora fur tatar t
Columbia Township has thus far published nj ]
explanation of the unseemly haste with wbioh ,
our citizens were about being hurried into au i
Biection, the whites bavin* practically only a J
few hours' notice, and the blacks regularly or- ,
nnized and instructed how to vote in their <
inion leagues days before. The community 1
axpecte-and bas a right to expeot-some ex- \
plana lion from this officer. If the facts have
noe been fairly stated, he owes it to him se. t to <
state them fairly; aud ir they bave been fairly '
stated, be owes it to the community to explain ?
his part in them, and thus como ou from
among those union league negroes, provided ?
he wants to come out from among them.
LECTURES.
While tout le monde was busy with railroads
and agriculture and where to sleep, a select
lew, numbering less than a hundred, were
hearing the lectures of Colonel W. P. Starke,
prementiened in my last. The lecturer made
the m e take of leo turing too long at a session
two hours and a half each night. The second
evening was exceedingly interesting. The
lecturer gave life-like sketches of present-day
life in the Land of tbs Lotos and big tomb
atones. His readings of Hieroglyphics ( r
Holographies, rather) were intensely inter
esfttagand suggestive. His accounts of Arab
Ufa abd of tho Jerusalem of to-day were as
spicy as a chapter of St Fureidi* or of Jan
ored. His talk about the Plain of Troy, the
Simoia, and tbt> Scamander, brushed the dust
ot three thousand years from the magnificent
dream of Homer. A Columbia audience bas
rarely listened ts discourses of such vaned
and caiious information.
Then th? Spiritualists have had a represen?
tative here all tue week, who gives lectures to
email audiences from time to time-bas given
'two. I behove, the psst week. She cairns to
be ot New Orleans, and ia the first regular
clairvoyant medium that has ever exhibited in
Columbia. Several have called upon Madame
Stewart, of whom some report that they were
solo, others say very little about it. Her suc?
cess is very moderate. COBS ALS.

MANIFESTO OF THE SEIT MAYOR.
The End of tho Contest-Condition of
the City-Pamper Labor-t'ompaliory
Kduoat lon-Programme of the Admin?
istration.
Tho following is thc address delivered yes?
terday by ila vor Pillsbury o ooo the occasion
of bra installation as Mayor of Charleston. We
do cot propose to eater now into any long dis?
cussion of the principles whioh Mayor Pill-bury
lays down for his guidance and oars; bat it is
somewhat singular that ia the first flush of
sncoeBs he should take a gloomy view of the
situation of the city. The aspect of affaira
generally is not discourage nf,, although it may
be made so. lr?de this year has been-botter
tl an in any other year since the beginning of
the war. Thors are hundreds of idlers in the
city, it ii trae, bat t bis ie because they prefer to
lire here in idleness to working in the country.
No city, who to vor its giza, can undertake to
support, every able-bodied wanderer who
ohooses to squat within tho corporate limits,
and the ?cheme of finding employment for
every coloied mau who prefers Charleston to.
the oorn-field, w ,uld, if carried ont, double the
debt of the city, md make progress and im?
provement impossible. Mayor Pillsbury ad
mite that he is ignorant of the wanta and gene?
ral condition of tho city, and when he under?
stands better tho trae position of affairs he
he will, perhaps, find good causo for chang?
ing bis opinions in regard to those measures
which he not assumes to be necessary.
tienUemen of the Vounoil - We have con?
vened under cucumstances somewhat peculiar.
Our election took place nearly six months
si i'co, yet events beyond our control have
transpired to detain us from our seats till the
present time. A resort to law, to the courts,
to the Legislature, and tben back again to the
coarte, bas st last placed us in the unenviable
positions wbich we now assume. Wu boat
reviewing the influences whioh tuve operated
against os to debar us. ne can exult in toe con?
sciousness that we are not here as usurpers.
We entered the Municipal straggle presum?
ing that all parties would consent to be gov?
erned by the great democratic principle lying j
at tbe foundation of every free government- j
that the minority must defer to the majority, j
luis principle bas been recognized at every t
stage ot the tedious and annoying contest ,
tbrongn which we have been dragged. To
have advanced a Bingle ateo without it would (
have boen revolution, and each a revolution as ,
could not have passed tnumpbantly through ?
ali the VJr.ed searching or 'eats to which oar j
case bas been subjected. We have, therefore, ,
been constituted the ofhci? board of this cit \ : .
not only siter the usual manner of an oleo- ;
taon, but also by the iudgmo-t of the .
courts, both inferior and superior, and by
the high sanction of the State Legisla ture. j
Io the discharge of oar official duties, wo ,
shall doubtless encounter difficulties, which, j
to some, might appear almost insormouuta- (
ble; and yet, if we move ot urageously onward. ?
sacredly observing the oath wo' nave tauen,
acting wi i bout ie*r, favor or discrimination,
thea J d.faculties will, one by one, vanish from
before us.
Prom tiie singular position in which I have
besa placed since the election in Novembet
last ; uncertain when the duties of Mayor t
ah .old devolve upon me, and from the un- ,
trnjnurj rsmnoga hwwwe ??n..<?, ? , l
predecessors in office, I bj va not felt at liberty
to resort to Ibo inuai sourced ot information 1
LS to the past workings ot tho City Uovorn- v
neut, or as 'o tho present wants and general r
condition of tho city itself. I shall now, how- ?
nar, cntei- at onco_jipon that duty with what- c
3ver of zaai and earnestness I shatl oe abie t . 1
<->cnmaud ; and ebal!, from timo to timo, give 1
Mich information and submit tor \ our coneid- 1
aranon sue J suggestions as the exigencies ot j
the time shall seem to indicate. }
Without entering into details, we may see at j
i glance that the condition of the city presents i
a somewhat discouraging aspect. War ha? '
itamp-d its roleutlceo footpr.n's in every di- (
rection. Tho devouring flimo has swepi over <
largo sections, and the city has but partially I
recovered from these desolations. Our chan- 1
table institutions are unusually crowded with 1
dependent inmates, while the general eta.nti- '
tion < f business curtails the means necessary '
tor then: generous support. Every street and 1
corner is thronged with needy applicants for 1
labor and broad. The limited variety ot em- 1
ploymentB in the city and State, together with <
tbe vast number ur unskilled workers, randers 1
thia our task of supplying tb esc nooda of the .1
laborer embarrassing. A varied agriculture <
and the mechanic arts are sources of promi- I
neut prosperity to cities. With these elements <
in the background, with fie plavful but md >- f
lent currents of oar mers chained to water- '
wheels and belts; with furnaces, foundries and <
forges in foll operation; with the products of l
spindles and looms constantly flowing in upon '
as, our "City by tbe Sea" would soon become '
tje coronet of heaney to the State. '
Bat at present it is far other * ?BJ. The lathes '
turns sluggishly in the workshop; the hammer '
falls irresolutely upon the anvil, and every 1
branch of business seems &s if stricken wita '
paralysis. Tbe city groans under a debt :
amounting to nearly or quite one-fourth of its 1
entire valuation ; the interest, at least, of which 1
must be kept down, or it will accumulate with j
the ratio of the swift revolving mouths, till ;
?nanci il rain may become complete.
Such, gentlemen ot the Council, is the inheri?
tance transtmtted to us by virtue of oar acc?s- :
sion io tffioe. And, though tbe present?is-' 1
couraring aspect of affaira cannot properly be l
charged to oar account, wo might not be held
blameless for its continuance. Let us, theo, '
endeavor to discharge our high tra >ts with a 1
d?termination and honesty of puipose to
achieve anything but impossibilities.
The first requisite for administering the gov?
ernment is money. Tins must be ramed mainly
from taxation. Ia determining upon thc
amount to be raised, reference should ba hud 1
flt UL tO OUT actual necessities, and tbeu to i he '
sbilitv of taxrayor* to project improvement*,
which, though desirable, may not be ?eiraided
as indispensable. lu our present condition
we shall, no doubt, be-juatinod in applying
the rnle of retrenchment, wnerewr lt caa bo
done wittiont jeopardizing our most vital in
terests. First in imp >rtance to any communi?
ty are meaHurea pertaining to its health snd (
morals. Soundness of body is requisite ,
to the fall ano proper enjoyment of all
other blessings, and heneo our sanitary
regulations should not OD ly bo rigid, but
t.iey Should be Btrictly enforced. Moral.
ti, also, and virtue are as essential to (
general prosperity as are pure air and whole?
some diet lo health. Therefore wo should
throw around them all the safeguards which it
is wubin our province to supply.
Our charmes shouid.not boourtailed too pi r
8imQniou8iy, notwitbhtandi g the financial
pressure upon us. 'lhe aged, the infirm, the
orphan have demands upon us wnich no peo?
ple, claiming to roragmzi common humanity,
can disregard- Sickness, accident, and other
varied misfortunes throw many helpless at our i
teet. And while we chouid lend no sanction to
idleness or vagrancy, we mast not turu a deaf ,
cor to utter distress nnd hejplo-soesa. To Hie
ablo bodied employment should bo fur.vsned,
so far as it is needed and oau receive proper re?
muneration. If toe dei?Hod for lahor in tho ,
cry should not be sufficient to un o; tho wauts
of ?ill those dependent unou it, they should bo j
encouraged au 1. it need bs. assistoJ. io go out
and culuvato the broud unoccupied acres ot tho
couuirv. ,
In this connection I doom it not improper to
m.iko briof uLusioa (o labor as the powerful
engine wbich propels the machin?ry ot hts.
So long as lt waa by law ooustrained,
and in great measure unrequited, it was
almost, from neie-auy, subject io degradation. 1
Bat upw that it has become tree and remu?e
raiiv.-, the laborer possesses tho rigiittocom- '
maud respect, proportionate to the linpor ance
sud r.-sponsib lilies of his calling, dp.tai. t-o '
far from h-ing independent ofi .b r io com. 1
paratively fruitless without it. I. is indeed
ouiy its offspring, toddling by its side, ready
to stumble un i tall tho moment the strong 1
uand ol its creator ?a witblie.d. Our million* 1
of Kilver and gold would bo left to canker in the
vaults were there no urawny bauds or sii.ewy
arms to a aol} it. The lab ter miy b.* ooor, he .
nm be ignorant ; but iu nine cases out ot teu
it is his misfortuue. r-tiier ihau hu built. In i
elligeocu is au ix^e.lenco ; if. ii a power, ;
acknowledged everywhere and justly so ; but
it is due to no one class. It answers its high
purpose tin- more effectually as ibis thu mora
gvuentUy diftasod. Icisnotincomoariblo with
toit but, on ibo contrary, it swoeteus and en?
nobles it. C'ncimtus alternated between tho
plough and ''affina of State," sud U Waa this j
esper lil adap ation that has rendered bis name
immortal. It would be well if moro of this
Roman virtue should be transplanted into our
nine eec th cootury.
I will alindo to one other subject of vital im?
portance to the city, and tuat ia its schools.
There are several beautiful and commodious
Behool edifices belonging to the city, be,mes
otbe a built by private munificence.
These all appear to bj well patronized, and
yet it is painful to witness the crowds of va?
grant, idle children, of all atreus, racPB and con?
ditions, that constantly saunter through the
streets, haug about the markets, wharves, rail?
roads, and other publie reaorta, with no fixed
occupation ot wtibi? means of support, com?
ing in consta J t contact with whatever is vici?
ous and demoralizing, till many of them be
como adapts in every species of crime. With
proper effort, thia ovil can bo checked, if it
emu ot be entirely removed. For tho seourily
of life and property, and for the promotion of
peace and good order in tho community, to say
nothing of its moral woii-beiog, I would rather
have m each ward school accommodation j for
all of suitable age, with compulsory power to
enforce attendance at school, than cordoas of
police, or even garrisons of armed soldiery.
The State Constitution wisely enjoins upon
us thia identical duty. Article 10 section 4,
declares: ' It shall be the duty of the General
A aernbtv to pr?vido for the compu.1 si ry attend?
ance at either public or privait, schioia. of all
children . between the agea of aix and sixteen
years, not pbysioi?y or mentally disa?
bled, for a term equivalent to twenty-tour
month?, at least." Aud although the Letnala
ture, al its last session, unfortunately tailed
to complete au act for carrying out this piovi
sion, still we as a corporation, with certain
vest ed rights and pri lieges, need not, nor eau
we afford to await the slow process of 8 ate leg?
islation, but should address ourselves at once
to tho grout werk, with euch resources as may
bo at our own disposal. A true and noble SJU
timent was recently uttered at our State Agri?
cultural Convention by air. Clemson, son-in
law ot Jobu C. Calhoun, that ?. there could bo
DO prosperity, no advance, no civilization, with?
out td.ical ion."
In carrying put this object it m&v require ad?
ditional provisions ; bot it were better policy
to expend mcney in this direction than to be
torced to invest it enlarging our almshouses,
? LI a and houses of correction. Unless a thor-'
JUL'h reformation shall be speedily commenced,
KO shsll be driven to the last ni med resort, in
de rc nco of the public safety and prosperity.
Of other important branches of municipal I
interest and support, such aa the police, the
Fire Department, the markets, hospitals, ?cc, ?
I shall not speak on thia occasion, oalv pre- ,
Hising that they should bo made as beneficial
ind effective as publio necessity, united with 1
jonnietont economy, shall demand.
