Conspicuous among the forms in which this Bhows itself is attondance on public business, when and where they have no busi? ness. Tho Court of Common Pleas and Gene? ral Bossions, Judpro Boozer, has boen in ses? sion here for tho past weok, cud thc bouse, really insufficient in capacity, has been ciowded with negroes-rude, ignorant, and offensive ll old hands-not ono m ten of whom havo a particle of business there. The auditorial seals are filled from morning till night with these creatures, outnumbering the whites ten to one generally. To be thus in coUrt is to be away from their work; but they snatch at every such opportunity of idling. Tho pretext urged by them is that they are interested in the par" ties tried before the court; and, in truth, this pretext ie largely applicable, however insuffi? cient it may ba, for (he court has little before it oxeept oases of larceny and assault and bat? tery by negroes. THU POST/OFFICE. Of a part with Charleston's "Municipal roud dlo" is Columbia's postoffice puddle. 1 he re? lief in the latter that scorned likely a week ago is now hopeless, as you have been in torin od. Wilder seems disposed to meet the wishes of the comma, ii ty, but being, as he is, in tho shackles of a despotic political party, Leis powerless to do what he wishes. He found his party masters too strong to allow bia? to fol? low the dictates of bis better judgment, and has thad missed one of the best oppoiluaittos that has ever presented itself to one of his race. ? week ago ho had it in his power to secure and confirm the respect and gratitude of a community that is daily becoming more power? ful for good or evil (for him to determino which) to him and to hiv porty. By securing this respect ha would have immensely advan? ced bis own position aod fortunes, and would have won possibly sorno respect and certainly som o favor to his party; and his party may neod both before he will wish to pass off the stage. Tho plea that ho wished to do right will in futare be of DO avail to him. He saw the right and approved it, bat the crack of the parly whip Unnerved him, and be trots into position with a servility that the slave Wilder never had to do. The business embarrassments growing out of the present postal regime can hardly be said to diminish much. One business house, li. & G. D. Hope, advertise a dozen loiters and pa? pers to as many different persons, (ton differ? ent initials) as awaiting owners ut their office. Those bad all somehow " got into tho wrong box." This is one case. Doubtless a census of such wrong-box letters and papers all over the city would give us a hoavy return, and are iny thing but gratifying to the new postmaster, iud one may be, in a Alight degree, embarrass? ing to hts party cvei-??or?.- ? -??-? The jam at the general delivery is constant. [ have not yet, at any hour of the day, seen the general' delivery window without its anxious inquirers. MONETARY FACTS. There was sold here last Monday at auction t lot of open accounts, some of many years' standing, and simo Confederate, but altogeth? er amounting to the round sum of $800,000, ?vhich brought $105. An account of $1000 sold it the same time for $8. These are only two rot of a number of similar items; but they serve to show a condition of affairs here that is apt to work soma modification in the old time credit system. EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY. Ono of the cases for highway robbery, tried In the court the past week, was the State vs. two of Governor Scott's pardoned convicts [rom the penitentiary. The guilt of the par? ties was made out so clear that not a man present oould doubt it, and the jury found them guilty accordingly. What next? Will bis Excellency torn them loose again upon the community? They are, I understand, known iesperadoes, as near professional as native tal? rot ever developes into. A. week ago bis Ex? cellency extended his executive clemency to six? teen convicts in the penitentiary at one nierci esB swoop of mercy. The State thus loses jheir services fdr awhile, but probably not for rory long. Juries will send thom up again no 3oubt in due season.' The reason assigned for bis kind of executive work is that these negroes nay, by being pardoned, escape the ciistran ihising clause in the criminal law. It ia very aeroiful of his Excellency, especially when we -emember that he is to bo a eindickte for this lardoning office next term. There are only 'bree classes of society that object to this del xgo of clemency-tho iespeotable portion of ho community, the prospective victims of iheee felons, and the prospeci li? rival eau di? lates for the governorship, J TXt fien this kott-ocraoy can be carried on. aa it has been, >retty much without any of these (tux e das <es ITEMS. Horace Greeley, in a series of articles wi ich le is publishing on political ocojiomy? uigos the cultivation of tea in the Sooth. He abates that, "the tea plant germinales, flourishes and natures in upper South Carolina and in East Tennessee." Will not somebody in upper South Carolina give US tho practical facts upon this matter ? The Broad Biver bridge bas been in process of rebuilding for several months.

Ibo assemblage was large for such a show, but could hardly be called select in any sense. Negroes don't take to pictures much. Weam 8c H ix, photographers in this placa, used to take in the days of slavery more negro pictures than they do now in freedmen days. . .. .

Meena nloi and Worhiagmen Alarmed- Negro Labor TS. White La. ?or-Ti?? Albany Resolutions-Th? Negro Postmaster at Macon, Georgia. The persistence and seeming; success with whioh the negroes iu Washington are thrubting themselves forward socially as well as politically, ss begiauiug ty excite disgust on all sides at North, and tho evil is rapidly assuming a mag? nitude that must bring with it erelong it* own remedy. A Washington letter to the Bal? timore Qaz3tte says : The mechanics and workingmen here, as well as throughout tho country, are becoming justly alarmed at the evident purposes of the administration. They seo in the persistent polioyof introducing into the workshops of tho government utteilv incompetent negroes, a de? sign rather to r ?duoo the white operatives lo a level with the lowest class Of humauitv than to elevate the negro to a higher oifice. They also see in the proclamation of the Executive, mak? ing eight hours a day's woik, only a bid to in duco the white man in government employ? ment to submit to the d?gradation of negro companionship and social equality wherever tho power of the government oan be exercised. They even see fur thor, and have concluded that this "bid" can only affect laborers m pub? lic employment, outside of whioh, if operative at all, it must serve merely to create difficulties between the employers and employed in private life, Tbe Navy Department is observed to be very prominent in this business. Under a spread eagle caption it is officially announced this morning that the "admission of colored men to all brandies of work under the government in th s district now appears to be established as a rule. In tba navy yard colored meu have already been employed ic the bricklayers' and joiners' gangs, and yesterday James Cooper, of Baltimore, was given employment as a ma? chin?t-tho first colored man employed in work of that character." Per contra. The New York Herald (whose editor, whatever may be otherwise thought or said of him, ) is admitted on all hands to have a prodigiously long nose, thus discourses of a decision of a Printers' Conven ion: "The Printers' National Convention nt Al? bany, by a vote of til ty six to twenty -oigot, laid on the table a resol m ion tor abolishing all distinctions of rase and color in the oraft. This means that the distinction of color ls to be enforced as au objection to the blajk man; and as it is with the pi inters so it will be with all tho other Trades' Unions. They will all he arrayed against negro equality in their workshops, and tho administration before long will hoar from them at tue polia." Ii is difficult, if not impossible, just now, in writing from this quarter, to stoer olear of the nauseating subject of the everlasting negro. Nothing else is legislated upon. Nothing oise seems to ongagethe attention and oare of this statesmanlike administrrlion. You must, therefore, bear with me; A negro named turner was recently appointed postmaster at Macon, Ga., whose, character was as black as his skin. To this hour tho influence that ope? rated-upon the President tomase the appoint? ment is unkno vu. and excites the liveliest cu? riosity. A few days ago a * delegation," rep? resenting what was termed "all tbs respectabili? ty" there is in the Radical party in the State of Georgia, waited upon bis Excellency, and "rep? resented" the man's truo character, demon? strating that if be were a white mm, instead of glorying in the fashionable color, he would long sine d have been consigned to some secure penitentiary rather than to the management of the United States mails. On the authority of one-of this respectable delegaci?n lean st ?te that General Grs t soJomly promised Turner's immediate "suspension." But we are now in? formed officially that he has since vacillated. '.The report," says the organ, "that the Presi? dent had gi /en orders for the suspension of Turner, recently appointed at Macon, Ga., ls untrue, or least premature, as no action in the matter had talton TCxecuti.vn un 8 o'clock P. M., yesterday." The President left the oily at 9. A Negro Mayor sor Washington-Aris? to?? ney among tue Darsues. The following dispatches from the Washing? ton correspondent of the New York Herald, gives some further indications of the drift of the black current at the National capital : The next move of the colored Republicans of this city is to bo an effort to elect one of their race, John F. Cook, as Mayor of Wash? ington, cook bas just been elected registrar, one of the most important offices in the city, and is quito au advanced darkey, possessing education, tact and a fare share of fortune. Hie colored brethren say they must have him as their next mayor, at every hazard. They contend that they do all the heavy voting and elect all the Republican candidates, and there? fore are entitled to control something better than the mere rogistrarship and a few al? dermen and councilmen. Cook? though pop? ular with most of the old colored settlers, looks down upon the poor blacks, and particu? larly t he Virginia contrabands, whom he thinks unfit for decent oolored society. It is said that during 1 incoln'a time Cook advised Old Abe not to allow the contrabands to come to Wash? ington, on the ground that it would rain busi? ness. How thia will go down with his colored eitizans remains to be seen. Major Riohards, the (superintendent of Police, was a pretty prominent candidate tor the Mayoralty until the not on Monday lost. It is believed that his prompt action to suppress that little dis? order has destroyed h.s last chanoe of success, and that Cook will certainly get the nomina? tion and bo elected. It ls remarked here that while tho blacks are clamoring for admission to the theatres OD the white level, they do not practice the same equality in their deal? ings with each other. Thus the most fash? ionable barbers bore are oolored mon, who will on no account descend to shave a darkey. Their reason is, perhaps, not that they object on their own account, but because lb would rum their white custom. Stewart, who was oleo:ed Alderman of the First Ward on Monday, is a colored m in and a barber, and was objeoted to by some of his race beeausa be would not let negroes be shaved and out in bis artiste establishment. "Do you think I'm go? ing to vote for a,oolored man because he is a Republican, When he thinks us not respectable enough to be shaved in his store ?" was the Bbarpanswer of some of the.colored votera whose ballots was asked for Stewart, lt is the same thing In tho restaurants. Many Of them are kept by oolored men and have the moat respectable white patronage. Of course thoy declino to ?How Sambo to squat-at the same tables with (heir white customers. Thus, ii ?iul be seen, that the theatre question is nol he only one that will create trouble, and thai that trouble is likely to recoil on the black him self. The Washington Negroes Determined tc Claim Seats In the Theatres on JCqual My with the -Whites. It was telegraphed by certain correspond ents day before yesterday that no danger wouli grow out of the law recently passed by tnt Municipal Council of this city, compelling tb admission of oolored people to all places o amusement on an equality with whites. Th reason assigned was that the oolored peopl had dot ermined not to thrust themselves offen sively upon the whites. The following lettei written to a Washington paper by john I Cook; a colored' man, just elected registrar o this city, shows that at least some oolored pee pie intend to avail themselves fully of th rights guaranteed them under this new ai rangement: "To the muorof the Chronicle :, ?ylJaawMwy^ tba Messrs. John P.Cook eua Carter A.

Tho cot? ton clop looks even, fair and good; the c jld weather bas retarded its growth, yet with the present warm weather it will soon catch ap; the fields are unusually well prepared, the crops planted with care, fericen good, ground clean from grass, and there ie an evident at? tention paid to thorough culture. As yet there is no caterpillar, and some argue that tho dry, hot wedtlier will tend to destroy and prevent them. Sugar oane looks well, awoet potatoes aro looking well; peas now being planted oun be depended upon. Fruit trees, grapes and vegetables are flourishing. On the whole, wc may calculate on a fair yield, and at present prices a profitab'e return to tho farmers. Labor is more reliable and unitorm, crime lees provalont.
