?fri* ii* Ai v (LA. g,?w?.f3 COLUMBIA. S- C. Tuesday Morpiay, KovpmbeT 8,1899. T??U-a$ Casrc of <7nplt*r. It ia related of Diony aios, tba tyraut, thai he ?tripped th? statue of Jupiter Olympus of a robe of massive gold, and snbsti toted a cloak of wool, saying: "Gold ia 600 cold in- winter, and too Leary ia sn miner. It behooves nc is lake care of Jupiter." This incident Ber veg to illustrate the point made by os in oar last issue, with regard to the new role taken np by the radical leaders in South Carolina. All of a sadden they profess to be greatly concerned about the wages of the laboring men in all the depart? ments of business; and white and colored laborers are alike urged to strike for higher wages. As for ourselves, we are pleased to labor adequately compen? sated. We bold that "the laborer is worthy of his hire." But we see in the movement wo are referring to, neither moro nor less than an artful trick. It ia purely a political move, and if it be de? sirable to have wages raised, the laboring man may well hesitate before he adopts the proposed method of accomplishing j the object. The movement is doable* faced. It says to the colored man : * 'You are entitled to higher wages at the bonis | of your white oppressor," and it says to the white mani ''Increase wages, and tho result will be, tnat white labor will be introduced to take the pl ceo of black la? bor," . And thus the acute radical hopes to Wia white recruits to. his ranks. In the meantime; little does bo care whether the interests of labor are really promoted or not. It ia sufficient for him that the interests of TUB PABTT aro advanced. IIo agrees with Dionysius: *'it behooves wt to take care of Jupiter"-and Jupiter is no other than the great radical party. <-???-> Death of Rev. W. A. Gama well. To the Editor of the Phoenix. On Sunday last, I announced to the congregation of tho Washington Street Church, the critical illness of the Bev. W. A. Gamewell, one of their former pastors. The deep and tender sympathy expressed by the congregation was os honorable to them us it was deserved by him on whose behalf it was shown. Will you permit me through your columns, as the earliest mode of communication, to inform them that this much-loved Minis tor of Christ departed this life in the triumphs of faith, yesterday afternoon, ut a quarter past 2 o'clock. All that me? dical skill, the affections of a devoted family, and tho attentions of a loving congregation could do, were nnavailing to avort tho fatal blow. His last hours illustrated the truth, that "Tho chamber where thc good man moets bis fate, Is privileged beyond the common walka of vir? tuous life, Quito on tho verge of Heaven." Bospectfully vours, WHI?EFOOBD SMITH. State elections will be held to-day, No? vember 2, in the States of Maryland, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, Min? nesota, New Jersey, und Wisconsin.

Those elections will close the political campaign for the present year. -??a?? SKTTLINO TTIK OJLD ACCOUNTS.-A spe? cial despatch from Washington to the Now York Herald, Bays: Tho Fifth Auditor of the Treasury has written a letter to Solicitor Banfield, ?tating that he finds upon the books of his office a considerable balance duo the United States from individuals holding positions as ministers, consuls and com? mercial agents at the time of the breaking out of the rebellion in 1861. He is do sirona of calling on such of the?" late officials and their bondsmen as are living or can be found, for tho amount? thus standing unsettled, with a view to having the same balanced. Ii A mc AI. CONFISCATION SCHBME xs Mis* BiBsii'i'i.-Tho Hinds Conuty (Miss.) Gazette notes tb? revival of tho "forty acres and mulo" promise in this form: That if the colored people will vote thu radical ticket, General Ames and Judge Tarbell will have a tax levied upon all the l inda in tho State so high, that the pre? sent land-holders canuot pay it; that then the lands will be declared forfeitod to tho State, and become the property of tho State to ali intenta and purposes. That then thu Legislature, in tho handH of General Ames, General Alcorn, Judge Tarbell and others, will pas? u law giving to every man in the State, black and white, who bas no laud, forty ucres of said forfeited or confiscated lands, free of charge. This is tho promise which is now being mado to onr colored people through tho Loyal Leagues and other? wise. . Audrow Johnson still has a chance for the Senate. Brownlow'? health forbids the expectation that he can live long, and tho people of Tennessee aro with him.

M?*,lmmA Acrte.l?-aml VmU^O* -timm, .* W. tV. **** ?i Tho Marylaad Fair wa? a decided ?no cess, OD the (hird day the vial tora were estimated at twenty thousand. On the same day, the orator of the day, W. W. Bowie, Esq., delivered the annual address. In an eloquent vein. Mr. Bowls traced the rise of the effeote of the State Agri? cultural and Mechanical Society of Ma? ryland. The improved culture in Ma? ryland, the improved residences of farmers, the improved herds and flocks -all these he thought oonld be traoed to that ao ti YO agent-that moving power the State Agricultural Society. In hor? ticulture, too, he saw the influence of the Society. Mr. Bowie states that the products of ths orchards alone, in Ma? ryland, for 1868, amounted to over $1, 000,000, and that the market-gardens exceeded that amount. He alluded, also, to tho improved tasto of the people, as illustrated in the desire of tho publio mind for beautiful trees, shrubs and flowers, with 'which to beautify pnblio and private grounds. As to tho im? provements in agriculture, proper, he regarded this as most decided. Mr. Bo? wie lays down Ibo following rules OB thoso generally ogroed npon: 1. ClcaU and deep cultjro, with tho? rough pulverization. 2. Effectual draining by open ditches, and under-draining with tiles-that be? ing overy way the easiest, quickest, most effectual, and beyond doubt tho cheapest and most economical, under any circum? stances. 3. Pulverizing stiff, and compacting light soils. 4. Free use of lime and the phos? phates with heavy manuring, iu connec? tion with us much shade as can be given the land by coarse manure, straw, brush, leaves, or, if possible, grasses. There arc sevorul ing?nions and beautiful the? ories as to the modus operandi o? fertility being imparted to the soil by the action of shade alone, but I shall not detain you by repeating tho arguments iu their sup? port. Upon this and kindred branches of agricultural philosophy, Mr. Clemson has written eloquently and with great ingenuity and power. 5. Thick sowing of mixed grasses when tho land is scoded to lio in grass for forage or posture. 6. Top dressing grass, instead of turn? ing under manure for crops. [Home? made, long manuro hore referred to.] 7. Bones, next to lime, is tho most de? sirable and economical of all fertilizers, and hence tho most remunerativo. 8. JUDICIOUS ROTATION TS CROPS.-In this matter every man is guided by cir? cumstances, and his necessities and his means, but aa a general rule, we do not rotate enough or lot land lie long enough in grass, by which three things might bo attained-moro stock, surer success in clover and increased crops, with less hard labor, although wo would huvo moro light work. Cattle and grass I hold to be tho cheapest and most permanent of all fertilizers. Outlay is necessary, but homo production of fertilizing materials should not be negleotod meroly because foroigo or domestic manufactured fertilizers are more easily applied and aro oasily ob? tained. It is good and judicious farming to expend in bought fertilizers at least four per cont, on tho whole cash valuoof tho farm, per annum, besides top-dressing at least ouc-flfth of the arabio land with a heavy dressing of such manure, straw, I chaff, leaves, weeds, muck, clay, ?io., as can be furnished by tho farm itself. Ho who can pursuo this course will, in five years, be paid well for his outlay, and have his land wonderfully improved in fertility. It should always be remembered to have manure there must be cattlo, and to have cattlo there must bo gross. Mr. Bowie next referred in just terms to tho claims of tho agricultural interest upon the country and to the fact that hitherto tho legislators of tho land have failed to do j us tico to this vital branch of industry. He commended to tho Society the following subjects as worthy of consi? deration in connection with the agricultu? ral intorest, viz: Publio education ; roads; organization in behalf of agricultural in? terests, und internal improvents, such as canals and railroads. In connection with our approaching Fair, these matters will bo regarded with interest. There is, in? deed, a freshness and charm about agri? cultural pursuits, which always invests this branch with importance in the esti? mation of refined nnd elevated souls "Tho eUtcproan, lawyer, man of trade, l'uni tor thorelugo of ?om o rurul shade.'' In fact, iu lill countries and iu all agos, we find mun turning to the calm delights of agricultural purauits. Washington deemed it thu noblest pursuit of man, and '.'Z ara a's great victor, in hin rural horne, Scorned or forgot Hie ingratitude ol Homo." We cannot, iudced, Bumoiou the youth and manhood of tho State to a nobler held of enterprise, energy and skill thau that offered by our State Agricultural and Mechanical Society. Lot all who love tho Commonwealth, "rally around" this flag. Let the annual Fairs of South Carolina be so sustained as to enable them to do their good work. And, HS Mr. Bowio said in reference- to Maryland, let each wull-wisher hero say in reference to South Carolina: "My dear, my uative soill For whom my warmest wish to Heaven is ?ont, Long may thy hardy sons, of rumio toil, lio blessed with health and peace and sweet co?tent." John Langston kicked his siok wife to death in New Jersey, "just for fun." ?yaalf, with 1fr. Jes. P. Haaigaa, had ooo?tioQ to Tint ibo Singleton pUota? rlton. On arriving at Gadsden, wo found thai the dis tan oe waa so great, haring missed oar wey, that tra oonclnded to atop at tbe Bed Hill Church, about one and a half milos Nf rom Gadsden, where some freedmen were preparing to hare diVio'e worship. At Ibis place, wo met Messrs. H. C. Mark, P. Epstein, and Brill, tbe former of whom, it appears, had come to church for the purpose of "drumming" np some custom. Mr. Mark informed the negroes that he was a BepubUean, and that a party of roughs were coming from Columbia to break np their service, and also their school, and do injury to them and the Bopublican cause in general. On arriving at tho church, we were met by the negroes, who unod menacing gestures, saying that thero wero nono but RupublicanuJMro, and that Democrats havo no mNraess among them. In fact, they did every? thing to create a disturbance. By using argument and persuasion, and through the exertions of School Commissioner Edwards and a few others, we succeeded in convincing tho freed mob that such were not our iutentions, and thus quieted what at first appeared to be tending to a I serious disturbance. When we wcut buck to the railroad station, ono of thc negroes, who appeared to be the spokes? man for tho party,.came to us and apolo? gized for the langaage used, saying they had been deceived by the parMas above mentioned. Our thanks aro duo to School Commissioner Edwards, for the part he took in staying the disturbance. In combinion, Mr. Editor, we would to what Republican Club does Mr. H. C. Murk belong? He has always voted tho Democratic ticket, but certain? ly did not act in accordance with those principles, when he endeavored to pro? duce a disturbance between the whites and black?. D. GOODMAN, J.

ANDERSON.-The following embraces a full and complete return of the inhabi? tants of this County, as furnished by the census-taker: Number of children betwoon six and ?sixteen years of age: Males-white, 2,012; colored, 1,329. Females-white, 1,867; colored, 1,274. Males over twenty cac years of age white, 2,653; colored, 1,492. Total number of persons, of all ages: Malee-white, 6,609; colored, 4,274. Fe? males-white, 7,463; colored, 4,779. To? tal of whites, 14,072; total of colored, 9,053. Grand total, 23,125. It is a curious and interesting faot, as disclosed by the nbovo figuren, a - owing the number of voters in this County, that nearly the entire strength of the colored voters registered aud voted nt the elections held during last year, while the strength of the white voters was at no time fully developed. In fact, there must be several hundred white meu enti? tled to vote-for no man over twenty-one years is disfranchised, except for felony -who are not yet registered, aud have consequently so far failed to exercise the right of suffrage under the new Consti? tution.-Anderson Intelligencer.

THE FIBR AT THE CITADEL SATURDAY MORNING.-At a quarter pa6t 6 o'clock, on Saturday morning last, smoke was seen issuing from the lower portion of tho West wing of tho Citadel, and the alarm was given. About a half of an hour afterwards, the alarm was sounded from the bell. Tho firemen, with the apparatus of that district, were prompt? ly on tho ground, aud worked manfully to extinguish tho flames. Several times th?! roofs of tho row of houses oh King street, opposite the Citadel, wero set afire by sparks, but wero immediately extinguished. By 8 o'clock, tho flames were subdued, but ouly after the whole of the West wing, excepting tho walls, was consumed. Had the fire occurred at night, the damage to property would havo been much greater, as it is more than probable that several of tho houses on King street would have ben destroy? ed. Tho amonut of damage is not yet known. Tho fire is supposed, by some, to have been caused by tho sparks from a soldier's pipe falling into tho hay. lu the store room where the fire originated were stored several hundred pounds of hay und straw, and about 2,000 tubo cart? ridges. The rooms over the store room wero used as quarters for tho soldiers. During tho fire these tubo cartridges commenced to explode. The Citadel belongs to the State of South Carolina, and was taken possession of bj' tho United States authorities when the "Union came in." Who will repair da? mages?- Chnrlffston jV?ir.?. - RAILROAD CONVENTION.-On Friday evening last a number of gentlemen, representing many Southern Railroads, assembled at the Charleston Hotel, with the object of effecting a change ia tho schedule of tho roads running North. There were present representatives from the following roads: Richmond and Pe? tersburg Railroad, Weldon and PeterE bnrg Railroad, Wilmington nnd Weldon Railroad, Wilmington and Manchester Railroad, Nortb-eastern Railroad, Sa? vannah and Charleston Railroud, Selma and Montgomery Railroad, Augusta and Columbia aud Charlotte Railroad. Owing however, to the absence of any repre? sentative of tbe South Carolina Railroad, tho meeting was forced to adjourn without accomplishing the object for which it had assembled, us it was deemed impractica? ble to effect any ohango of sched-ile without the presence and co-operation of tho Sooth Carolina Railroad. {Charleston Courier. THE POST OFFICE RETORT.-It is taid ! that Postmaster-General Creswell'* forth? coming report will embrace a recom? mendation for tho abolition of the frank? ing privilege, und that tho several de? partments shnll bo required to pay their own postage. He says that uudcr such on arrangement his department would i becomo self-sustaining, if not a soured of {' >rofit. He will also recommend that tho AWB regulating tho advertisements by j the departments shall bo changed in mn ' terial respects; also, the abolition of tho letter box dolivery system; that all mail matter be delivered by carriers, or through the general dolivery; also, a re? duction of tho rub s on registered let bu s. Ho will further report a very small defi? ciency. Tho Agricultural Burean estimates that tho cotton crop of tho Southern States this year will be worth $240,000, 000, while the total value of the exports of the Mouth is set down at$328.500,000. Tho South is actually richer than ever before the war. There is not so much concentration of wealth among tho few, but there is a general prosperity which is most gratifying, and which has made itself felt in tho fall trade of tho North? ern markets very perceptibly. The West is purchasing no moro than usual, and is beginning to manufacture in competition with us, so that the regenerated South ia onoe moro our best customer.
