General Ames, tb? commander of the district, it sheuld be borne in mind, was in Washington when the court adjourned, and Colonel Barr, the Judge advo? cate, brought the papers North to have him review them hero. But for tbe fact of bis being here the papers wonld have been sub? mitted to him in Mississippi. Whatever the finding, no sentence will be executed until after 'a decision upon the case by the United States Supreme Court, 'this was the under? standing ?hen the agreement was entered into between Yerger's counsel and the Attoinej General.' -One of the most heroic deeds on rcoord was performed on Saturday last by the flieman on he westward bound mall train over the Og densbnrg and L. C. Railroad. As the train? under fail headway, was approaching a oross lng about a mile east of Malone, New York, the engineer discovered a child, about twa year* old, on the track. He at once eouaded the whistle for "down brakes," and reversed his engine. The mother of ? tho ohild, on hear? ing the whistle, ran screaming toward the track to save it, but the fireman, W. Lavan way, seeing that she would be too late, leaped from the locomotiva and, running ahead of the train, snatched tbe little one from the track just as the wheelo were about to crush it. When the mother saw that her child was -safe, she utter? ed one loud cry of joy and sank fainting to the ground. -l he New-York Herald, of Friday, in its money report for the day previous, says : "Tbe marked for aoitborn bonds was steady and dull, with little doing outside of the Tonnes ?669 arid North Carolina?, lb*!''boar' move anent in both cf them seemed to touch bottom i- ti i w ?noruoon, tor prices became mure buoy mt | toward* tue Close of bueiuoss in the Long R v m.

The publisher of a daily paper sued tho Standard Life Insur? ance Company in the Supreme Court, before Judge Fithian, for a bill ot $778 on account of advertising. Tho company resisted payment on tbs ground that they had authorized but one insertion. There waa no proof, however, of thin. There was no order to that effect on tho bill, nuil uh.0 eouipauy UK? not attempt to deny that they saw tho advertisement contin? uing in the paper and failed to countermand it. Whon an advertisement is received in a publi? cation omeo without the number of insertions marked upon it, or the cost of the insertion paid for at the time, the publisher can know nothing of the wish of the advertiser respoot ing the number of insertions desired, and as he cando nothing until advised by him whose business it is to attend to tho matter, ho can charge for every insertion given the advertise? ment until ordered out. CHARLESTON. MONDAY MOBNTNG, AUGUST 2, 1889. Congressional Representation Under the Census of 1870. The newspapers of the North are begin ning to discuss with much interest the effect of the next census upon the appor? tionment of Congressional representatives among the States of the Union. It is ad milted, on all hands, that the changes which must be wronght in the distribution of poli? tical power will be out of all proportion te those which have resulted from an j pre? vious cens?a. The abolition of slavery, taken in oonneotion with the operation of the Fifteenth amendment, the adoption of which is now deemed almost a certainty, will materially increase the proportionate representation of the Southern States, by including the whole colored element in the count of population. The West will also show a great gain, and, if the apportion? ment is continued upon the same basis as at present, the New England and some of the Middle States will lose a number of representatives. Should the population of the Union come up to the Census Commis? sioner's estimate of forty millions, the basis of representation would be about ene mern . ber of Congress for one hundred and sixty five thousand of population. Suoh a basis would tell heavily against the States in Whioh the population has increased but lit? tle. Maryland, for instance, though having her basis increased by the abolition of slavery, would barely, if at all, escape lbs ing one representative. Newspapers in the States whioh will thus losa a portion of their influenae in Congress are suggesting various plans to counteract the reduction increase op bc number of {present?Livett^wa?le cd.b'ors talk of ? sys? tem of sgpresentit-ion based, cot cn popu? lation alone, but "population and'wealth, "' whioh would require still another amend? ment to the constitution. Sinoe the very foundation of the government the proper apportionment of the members of the House of Representatives has been a delioate and knotty problem, the main difficulty being to adjust the representation so as to make it as nearly equal as possible, and at the same time to keep the House from becom? ing too cumbrous and unwieldy a body. One of the vetoes nf President Washington related to this very subject, and ever since the matter has at intervals been a bone of contention in Congress, acoording to the shifting comparative fortunes of the sec? tions and the several States. In 1850 the number of representatives under each cen sus was fixed at two hundred and thirty three, the apportionment to be ascertained by dividing the number of the free popu lation of the States-adding three-fifths of the slaves in the slaveholding States-by two hundred and thirty-three, the product of suoh division determining the ratio of representation for the several States. To the States having the largest fractions an additional member was. assigned to make up the requisite number of representatives. Tuis apportionment was still unsatisfactory, and in 1868 the number of representatives was inereased to two hundred and forty one. It is gratifying to know, that under the new deal that will follow the census of 1870, we of the South are certain, in any event, to be invested with inereased in? fluence in the Federal legislation of the next decade; and should the expected tide of Chinese immigration prove aa fall and as .rapid aa many of us hope and believe that it will be, who knows but that the Mongol may yet be of service to us in another as peet than as a mere tiller of the soil T Pass? ing strange, indeed, would it be, if the mad policy whioh the fanatics of the North have succeeded in forcing upon the oountry, should at length recoil upeu themselves, by strengthening the hands of those whom it was designed to cripple, and turning out to be, as regards the wronged and long suffer ing South, a blessing in disguise. TBS great sc ire in regard to the threat? ened exhaustion of her ooal fields, at whioh a>l England stood aghast a few years ago, has at last been, in a great measure, allay? ed. So appalled was John Ball at the oroaklngs of the wiseaores who predicted the oatastrophe, and the consequent ruin, if not the total extinction of the British people, that a Parliamentary commission was appointed, with instructions to make a thorough and soientifio examination into the extent of the ooal supply of the King, dom. For three years the commission bate been at work, and it was annouuoed the other day in Parliament that la another year they would he able to present their report. They have spent ?20.000 in their survey8 and examinations, and have oom ploted their work in one district-Bristol, Somersetshire and Gloucestershire j- and are now abie to state that in this diet riot only one seventy-ninth part of its store of coal has been taken out, enough remaining to supply the demand, nt th? present rate, tur ?VUU y ?.'?ts. A? tn? same BUM ot tnmga exista in th? ether ooal district o, and as ii is impossible io f?al any very deep solici? tude as to what people in the year of our Lord 5769 will do io keep warm and to run steam engines, the Britishers are greatly relieved, and think thai they oan now afford to pooh-pooh the awful anticipations of Mr. Gladstone and others which had lately given them so muoh- alarm. Wa A RH told that the efforts of the ooUon oonsuming nations of Europe io insrease thc produotion of thai plant in India, Egypt and Turkey, have failed entirely, and that the United States will find a satisfactory demand for all the cotton that oan be rais? ed io the South. It is calculated thai if the English cotton manufactories had dur ins the seven years after 1861 inoreased in the same ratio as daring the five preceding years, the hands would also have increased to 120.000 over the number employed in 1861, whereas the faotory population is now 50.000 less than lt was in 1861 From thia faot it is argued that India and Egypt did not fill the deficit caused in England by the ptoppage of the importation of Ameri? can ootton. THB times must, indeed, be Badly out of joint when the State of South Carolina oan afford to lei the lady teaohers in her publio BObools suffer for the want of tho meagre pay that they have so riohly earned. We call the attention of Governor Scott to the letter on the subjeot printed in another column. Cannot something be done for these deserving ladies ?
