of "Congressman'' H?ge, at Abbeville, on Satur?
day last, an account of which has already appear?
ed in these colnmns:
With Haunting banners waving before their
eyes, an excitable crowd of blacks pass into the
courthouse, tilling every nook and corner, so that
further ingress aud egress were equally Impossi?
ble. There were scarcely moro titan a dozen |
whites present including our worthy sheriff,
clerk and county clerk. Mr. H?ge IB tho orator
ot thc day, and harangues upon the labor quos- !
Hon. lie tells the laborer that one-third of 1
the crop is not enough for him. Captain J. N.
Cochran, who Isstundlngncarthedoor, addresses
u civil question to thc speaker-"Tell these color- I
cd people what a 'nigger' ls worth In money
money wages being paid In my section." nogo
evades the question, and appeals to thc passions
of his audience by denouncing Hie word "nigger"
as a term of opprobrium. Captain coch?
ran disavows tho ase of the term In an offensive
sense; but H?ge refuses to hold any further col?
loquy. Major Johnson, near by, Buys In an un?
dertone, "why sm ely nigger means a black man."
Their "offence hath this extent, no more." Sul?
livan (the Into member elect) thc chairman or the

lowed a scene of thc Wildest confusion. Pande?
monium let loose-cries or "kill him, kill, kill

Thc law ls Ignored and vengeance appealed toby
those claiming to bo luw-inukcni ror Abbeville.
On last Monday, when the train arrived at
Hodges from Abbeville, Mr. Pcm Gumti, recently
elected lo thc Legislature, got ont sf tho cns, ac?
companied by u squad sf armed negroes, and es?
sayed u speech somewhat to lids effect: "I stund

out his lire's blood, and wo Intend lo have re?
venge ror it. The iii MI. Republican killed In this
county every leading Democrat shall bc killed
and their houses tun ned down over them." Tills
was apparently addressed to some dozen willie
men who wero standing near. Here ls un appeal
to tho passions of thu Ignorant colored people lo
set aside law, and lako matters Into their own
hand 1. This is tho counsel of a so-called law-ma?
ker. Will bo bo sustained by those in authority r
Tue coi o red people, os a class, aro misrepresented

h m. Tho oUier, Mr. Ouitln, who claims tho scat
of senator, tn which he was not elected, staled
his devotion to thoralrscx by kissing two of them
on the platform Just borers tho train left. This,
however, ls a mailor of taste, and I am nuable lo
say which was most degraded by it, or which
was must honored.

raised upon thc farra. Tho plantera tu furnish all
the running utensils and sufficient horse power to
carry on thc farm.
Thc committee appointed to memorialize thc
Ccucral Assembly submitted thc following:
TU ttf ItomtrnoU Mts Senate and House of Repre?
sentatives of the stale of .South (karolina:
Thc laborers or the State ol South Carolina, tu
Convention assembled, beg leave to memorialize
your honorable body to furnish un appropriate
and cirectuai remedy nu- sumo or thc grievances
which Hu: agricultural laborer uow pulfers at thc
hands or the large majority or his employers.
We believe Hint there ls no natural antagonism
betwecu thc inlcrests of thc planter and those of
thc laborer; but . n thc contrary, that fair dealing
and a rigid performance of duty on thu part of
each, will secure tho prosperity of both.
Wc arc aware that many or thc wrongs to which
laborers are subjected nre beyond remedy by
legislativo enactments, but must lind their re?
dress lu thc organized efforts of inc laborers them?
selves, acting uullcdly within thc lines of thc law,
with a wisc regard to Um equitable claims of e.ipi
tal, und thc Inalienable rights or labor.
Yet, while your houornblc body nrc restricted
by constitutional limitations fruin iixiug thc rato
of wilges, it in within thc scope of yin ir authority
to insure more fully than at present, their speedy
and certain colled ion, and also by suitable laws,
to conrer upon the laborer a greater power or
Hcir-protcctlon than he now possesses.
Wc, therefore, pray thal your honorable body
will pr?vido by statute
1. That tho claim ortho agricultural laborer for
wages due shall operate as a preferred lien upon
the land that he works, and thal thc planter or
owner of said land Rhall notscll or ali?nale thc
same, until such claim ts satisfied.
2. That thc Governor shall appoint a discreet ami
proper person in each county who shall bc desig?
nated as "commissioner of contracts." Such per?
sons shall bc charged with tho duty of examining
and attesting all contracts between the planter
and laborer, and shall act as advisory counsel or
thc laborer upon all questions that may arise un?
der bis eon tract. Ile shall make a quarterly re?
port to thc lturcau or Agricultural Statistics, Rol?
ling fori b the number or laborers In his county,
how employed,mid thc rate ot w ages paid, and the
names of planters and laborers who may have vio?
lated their contracts, all of which shall bc laid be?
fore thc General Assembly, at thc commencement
of each Rcsslun thereof, sud shall bc published for
general Information.
3. That thc suits of all classes of laborers and
employees for wages due them shall have prece?
dence on the caicndrus or thc couria, over all
other civil suits, and shall bc heard at thc first
term ot thc court arter thc dcclurattou or thc
plaintiff In thc same shall have been filed.
4. That thc Oovcrnor shall bc authorized to ap?
point, lu cacti county, un otllccr whose duty ll
shall bc to make up thc list or jurors, and super?
intend thc drawing of thu Rame, in order that thc
laboring classes may have a rall* repr??
sentai iou on thc juries, a privilege which
ls practically denied them in thc rural dis?
tricts, under thc operation ur the present system.
6. That when lands arc sold under execution,
tho sherill shall divide them as nearly ns practica?
ble, Into tracts notexcecding tl ft y ncres each, In
order that thc small capitalists may bu ennuie to
purchase.
Wc believe that this measure will greatly facili?
tate tho acquisition or land by tho landless, mid
Hutt it can be rendered legally practicable by pro?
viding that thc decree or sate. In each case, shall
declare that only so much or thc debtor's land, or
the subdivisions thereof, shall bc sold as may bo
necessary to satisfy the judgment.
0. That all due bills given by planters to la?
borera shall sprciiy in terms thc special considera?
tion far which thc same shall have been given,
and shall be transferable, at thc option of the
holder, and shall operate as a Hen upon thc crop
and land whenever such dec bill ls given, lu lieu
of payment far agricultural labor.
T. Tluil nine hours shall bo a law ful day's work
far all mechanics und laborers engaged in manu?
factures or in any business requiring skilled labor.
8. Abolish all taxes on sales "or cotton and rice,
by either Stato or municipal authorities.
Your memorialists aro sallsiled that thc enact?
ment or thc laws herein prayed far will bc or vast
benefit to the agricultural laborers, and will
greatly tend to advance the Industrial recon?

A public, lecturer In New York recently argued
thal In Kloo years more a grand deluge would end

shows that thc earth ls oscillating in thc angle or
Hs axis to thc sun lu periods or 21,000 years. Tho
zones arc undergoing a constant change. Now,
at tho North Polo ll is growing colder each year,
and at tho South Pole warmer. Thus, an Im?
mense ucumuluiion or glaciers or lecborgs at thc
North Pule will result, whim at the South they
will not form at all. In oaoo years the glaciers
Will have accumulated no much thal they Will
suddenly overbalance thc carib. Then tho wa?

-Dlsendowtneni has been forced on the Aus?

able way. Something like an Impartial endow?
ment or thc religious sentiment was attempted
there, when. iu ISM, au annual sum or $SM>,000 lu
gold was set aside "for bandings for public wor?
ship, and for ministers or religion," to bc applied
according to thc relative numbers or each de?
nomination. So long as tho gruut was divided
among thc various Christian sects, there were
but few dlssetitlons. Presently thc Jews enrac
forward to claim their joint and lawful share,
which lt wus impossible to deny them. Finally,
however, thc Chinese Immigration gave rise to a
demand fora granton benair or thc Joss-houses
or thc Celestials. This was more than thc peo?
ple eon ld tolerate, so, having resolved to draw
thc linc ut. Buddhism, they came to the Inevitable
ec elusion of discontinuing concurrent endow?
ment altogether. A resolution has accordingly
becu come to by thc Coloutal Parliament to allot
a graiUully decreasing amount for a fow years
for pnrposca or religion, uud then finally to abol?

-The, mysteriousaud irresistible impulse which
drives people tu moralizing mid theorizing upon
subjects of which they have little or no practical
knowledge, hus a pointed Illustration In Mr. Rich?
ard Grunt While's essay on the morals ans man?
ners of journalism, in the Galaxy magazlue fer
December. Along with some fanciful and Imprac?
ticable notions, Mr. White advances a good ninny
sound mid valuable ideas, and in thc malu ins
views seem to bc on their taco reasonable uud
just. And yet he could himself no more establish
and conduct such a Journal as he demands than
he could scull a cargo or sugar across thc Adan tic
ocean tn a kitchen cullender. Only those whose
days aud nights arc given to thc complex und ex?
acting duties oT journalism can undcrslund how
almost impossible lt is to bring the result of their
never ending efforts up lo nuytblug near their
own conceptions or what a newspaper ought to
bc; and, taking ult thc circumstances or the case
into account, thc wonder ls, not thal the average
journals or the present day should not bc better,
but that they should bc as good as they actually
arc. Undertaking to make a newspaper and sit?
ting ul a quiet customhouse dusk aud telling how
lt ought to bc made are two widely dliforcui oecn
patlons.
-"ir lhere be an elysium on earth," lt la-ac?
cording to an eloquent correspondent who hus
been travelling la thc Caucasus-on the banks of
the Phasls, two days'journey from TIOls. "Thc

of tropics.! shrubs and grasses, and tinted trees,
laurels and rhododendrons. Species of palm and
wild fruit trees of every kind grow almost rauk.
And there arc birds ot all sorts; besides thc na?
tive pheasant, woodcocks, wild ducks, snipes and
colored hirds abound. This is thc bank garden,
but away from it stretch thc mountains, folding
back one above thc other to a distance of thirty
or forty miles- Orst thc wooded runge, then thc
less distinct blue, and then the HIIOW peaks.

-There ls nothing lu language more grotesque
and imiteront, than thc manner in which some
ancient words, phrases aud mottoes are trans?
posed into familiar conversation. This is pecu?
liarly shown In the names of some old inns In
England. In thc times or Cromwell, when suth
heroes os "God-bc-pralscd Bambonea," and
"Flgbt-thc-good-ilght White," and "Paint-not
Hewitt," drank their ale, an inn was named tho
"Clod Encompatseth Us." But when the nation
became profane again, the word? were corrupted
to thc "Goat and Compasses," and thc picture of
a goat and compass wasused as a sign. There
was a house near Oxford which was once called
tho "Plume of Feathers," from the crest of the
Prince of Wales, but afterwards became popularly
known as thc "Plum and Feathers." The Inscrlp
? Hon "Caton Fidole" gave thc name the "Cat and
Piddle," and "La rose des Quatre Saisons." bc
came tho "Rose of tho Quarter Sessions." Thc
"Satyr and Bacchanals" became the "Satan and
Bag o' Nails;" thc "Cumr Dore" (Golden Heart,)
the "Queer Door;" thc "St. Catherine's Wheel"
the "Cat and Wheel;" thc "Boulogne Gntc" (com?
memorating the taking or Boulogne by Henry
VIII,) tho ?BnU and Gate;" thc "Peg and Wassail
Bowl" thc "Pig and Whistle;" the "George Can?
ning" thc "George and Cannon;" and thc "Battle
Axe" thc "Axe and Bottle."
