4.10L?MB??, S. C. Sunday Horning, Hay 8,1870. Fruits and Flower?-TUo Assemblages tn Charleston. We have given our readers an abstrnot of the events of the past week in the city of Charleston, bnt thia abstraot can give no proper idea of their earnest, wholc somo, interesting character. The Floral Fair, gotten up under the auspioes of "the. Charleston County Agricultural and. Horticultural Society," was au atlraotive exhibition. Tho open? ing address wnB delivered by Mr. W. Gilmore Simms, and was most admirable and appropriate. He elaborated thc thought that "the senso of beauty is o soul forever," and gave an address iu keeping with the flowers around him, and the philosophy that they suggested. Tho Academy of Musi? was ono of thc attractions of the week, and those visit? ors fond of snob, amusements were grati fled by the performances of the link? ings' troupe in English operas. Tho harbor excursion was a pleasant feature.' Tji? delegates to tho conven tionand other visitors were thus o nablet to pass'in review the historic points ic tho harbor cbnnooted with the late war. The battered walls ?and tho speaking rains of Sumter were there to remine the spectator of the grandest defence that history records. The rooms of the Charleston Boan' of Trade. No one who visits these roomi eau fail to bo impressed with thoir ele gant appearance and complete accompa nimenta. Here the members of tin Board of Trade, and of the club there with connected, meet for business, o reading, or conversation, or social enjoy ment; and here the oonrtesies of the cit: are kindly and freely tendered ti strangers visiting the city on missions o business or recreation. It is one of th os institutions that reflect the tone, th hospitality and the social spirit of th citizens of Charleston. But the mai: event of the week was the Agriculture and Immigration Convention. Thi convention brought together a larg and earnest body of delegates, reprc sonting Georgia and North Caroline together with most of the Counties c this State. The convention met in th hall of tho Academy of Masio. Aftc organization, it prooeeded to business and the desire was unanimous to esche mere speculations, and to secure pract cal results. The subjects brought befoi tho convention were IMMIGRATION, DIREC TRADE, COTTON MANUFACTURE, AGRICULT1 RAIi EDUCATION, THE FLORA OF SoUT CAROLINA, THE HYGIENE or SOUTH CAI? LINA, THE CHINESE QUESTION AND TU INDUSTRIAL RESOURCES OF THE STATI Upon all these questions, full and wei digested reports wero submitted, di cussed sud adoptod. Matters of vit; importance to the South wero freely di cussed, and the poiut was made nu accepted, that to develop tho recoure of the South was tho great work of tl day, and that this development was to 1 effected by immigration, direct trad manufactures, and in general by t active, enterprising and diversified i dustry. To uso tho means we now pc Bess, and to supplemeut these by nc agencies; this was conceded to bo O' true policy, the policy whereby o prosperity wan to bo re-ostab?Bhed. Tl practical measures proposed for imm diate and specific action aro embodied the propositions of tho Committees < Immigration and Direct Trado. Here FLAN is proposed. A convention ci do no more than to givo the skeleton action. It is for the people of tho Stn to add tho flesh, the blood, the must and sinews, and to breathe into tho li: less body tho breath of lifo. As to the rosults of the conventic thoy cannot but bo advantageous in moral as well as a practical aspect. Ci dit is due to the President of tho Meei nies' Institute, of Charleston, for t success which has attended his desire bring together suoh a body as tl which recently assembled. It will well for tho people of the Stato, and the South, if they move out boldly :i promptly on the lino of action suggest by tho Agricultural und Immigr?t! Convention of 1870. When a young man goesnslruy, fr?en gather around him in order to reste him to tho path of virtue. Gentian and kindness are lavished upon him win him back to innocence and pea No ono would ever suBpect that ho 1 Binnod. But whon a poor, confidi girl is betrayed, sho receives tho br:i of society, and is henceforth driven ir tho ways of virtue. Tho betrayer honored, respected and esteemed; 1 tho ruined, heart-brokon victim kuc there is no ponce for her this side of gravo. Society hus no helping baud her-no smilo of comfort-no voico forgiveness. Thoso aro earthly mor ties unknown to Heaven. There ii deep wrong in them and fearful are consequences. The reported conspiracies against the life of Lom's Napoleon are. discovered at suoli very opportune moments BH to nuke them saspioions. Whenever there are any serions signo of discontent manifest? ing themselves, the Imperial polieo dis? cover a plot to destroy thc Imperial life. Tho horror of assassination and the dread of a revolution, tho end of which no man can foresee, brings hundreds of thousands of liberty-loving Frenchmen in temporary sympathy with tho usurper. But those plots aro becoming monoto? nous, nud to prevent this the accessories nf tho last ono havo been arranged ou a brobdignaginn style. For iustance, twenty-two bombs had been delivered from n foundry, but 400 had been ordered, and would havo been furnished but for the strike. 400 bombs to de? stroy Napoleon tho Little! It is incredi? ble; conspirators aro never so lavish of their materials of destruction. But tho Emperor is rccoiving numerous ad? dresses congratulating him on his escape from the bombs that were, and woronot, cast; nnd the adulatory documenta is what tho Emperor just now needs. A foreign army of over 5,000 persons landed in the city of New York on Tuesday last, and at this moment ten Bteamors are preparing to leave Liver? pool with another nrmy of G.500 emi? grants-all, or nearly all, hound for the same sheltoringwharf of Castlo Garden, and no doubt destined to be shortly re? inforced by whatever vessels aro now at sea on their way Westward. Tho ma? jority of these, says tho New York Titnes, aro probably from England and Ireland, sinoe Germany has her own lino of steamers. The Cork JSxatnitier states that four steamships had just left that harbor, in one week, with about n thousand emigrants for America, and laments that the Coercion act will only have tho effect of increasing those de? partures of the people. If "solitude* may bo called "peace," as in tho timet of Tacitus, Ireland will probably bi quiet enough very shortly. Tho con tinued emigration from that country, after tho preceding exodus of millions is nu extraordinary spectacle in the so cinl history of the present age. WHAT ARE "GOOD TIMES?"-The Nov York Tribune very reasonably doubt: whether tho revival of business in Wal street, that is, Gold Boom and Steel Exchange, is an acceptable sign o "good times," in tho ordinary sense o the term. Goood times, tho edito seems to think, will never como unti Congress passes some sort of a fundiui bill. But it is not merely the passage o tho funding bill that is wanted, but th adoption of an opposito policy from tba so strenuously adhered to by tho Tri butte, of "protecting" a few individufi interests so as to constitute them absorb iug monopolies, maintained at tho es pense of tho masses by the taxutio which excludes all competition. Th reduction of both tariff and intern; taxation would do moro to put tho wheel of substantial industry, production an tariff in motion, than anything else especially if a settled and less costl fiuancial system ho at tho same tim brought into uso. - DEATH UNDER SINGULAR CIRCO STANCES.-Coroner Rollins wns yesterdu called to tho Eighth precinct station house, td investigateu somewhat singnln case of death. Shortly after 1 o'cloc yesterday morning, officer McKinley, c tho Eighth precinct, in going his rounds discovered two persons lying nt tho hoi tom of a flight of steps of premises ll Blcecker street. Au examination, whic tho officer made at once, showed that woman was lying across the body of dead man, and that sho was fast asleep With much difficulty, sho was arouse and taken to tho Prince street polio station, and there said her name wr Mary Leo, of No. 171 Wooster stree Tho body of the mun was curried to lb station bouse, where it was subsequent! identified ns that of Robert Gibbor Phillips, an adopted son of Jona 1 Phillips, deceased, formerly Assistai District Attorney under John McKeoi Tho testimony showed that tho decease bad been drinking to oxcess on Sunda; and at 2 o'clock in tho morning, ho lo 205 Wooster street, telling a female eon panion that ho should take a car an ride up to Central Park. After lcavio tho house, however, deceased met Mai Lee in a porter house, i nd taking a drin or two, they started off together. 1 staggering along Bleeckor street, th< stepped into tho unprotected area au fell to tho bottom of tho flight of stair Phillips foiling with so much forco as 1 burst a paunel from the basement dot with his bend. Doubtless, Ibo iojurii reduced him to insensibility, from whk ho did not recover. Tho woman fi across bis body, and, being so deeply i: toxicated, failed to comprehend what hf happened and sank into a sound sle( over tho corpso of her moro uufortuua companion. Whon brought to a retdi ing sense of her condition, by ollici interference, Mary waa almost horre stricken, promising to sign tho pledj aud uo**or moro indulgo in the uso stroug drink. Dr. John Beach examim tho body of Mr. Phillips, and in his or nion, death resulted from concussion tho brain, caused by tho fall, and su< was tho verdict.-Neio York\ Herald. Corrcapo nrtenco Of Columbia Ph CB m IX. < WASHINGTON, D. C., Maj 0,1870. There .baa been a document drawn np; by a Western Senator, setting forth the future policy of the Republican party, intended to be engrafted in the platform of thnt party for tho coming fall oam paign. Thia poper baa been signed by every Republican in the Senate, and is now being circulated among tho Repub? licans in the House, in wbieb, as fur as it has gone, receives thc entire sanction of tho members. It seems passiug Bl runge that thero should bo such unanimity in auy set policy, when, at this very time, such great questions ?us tho turill' bill, Ula funding bill, the di Seront currency bills, (Sra, aro causing disseusiou among tho members from tho different sections of tho country, irrespective of party. Rather unexpectedly, a warm discus? sion ensued in the House yesterday, on tho duty on steel rails made by the pneu? matic process. Tho cause of the inter? est excited was quickly developed to be millious of dol?ais, and that ofliceiB of steel work companies were lobbying among members ou the floor to obtain the highest duty ou steel rails. Mr. Cox, of Now York, mado a point of order that, whereas, the Hon. Daniel J. Morrell, of Pennsylvania, was pecuniarily interested in the Freedom and Cambria I ron Works, and that it was a rule of the House that no member should voto ou a question in which he is immediately interested, thal he be prevonted from voting. Mr. Mor? rell, however, took the responsibility upon himself to vote, in the absence ol proof that ho was au iutorested party ic tho case. Tho duty fixed in tho bill wai forty-four dollars, but au amendment making it thirty-six instead, was adoptee by 78 to G3. Outside of the interest, or principal o tho public debt, tho Government has disbursed for the month of April uearl; $13,000,000 among the different depart monts, as follows: War Departmon $5,500,000; the Navy and Interior Si, 000,000 each, and the civil list $4,750, 000. Although tho aggregate receipts o Uncle Sam exceeds his expenditures b' $12,000,000, it is hoped that he may b able very soon to still considerably cur tail bis expenses. Wo are, at Inst, assured that on uex Monday, the Chairman of the Ways uni Means Committee will be ablo to repot the funding bill, nud that the ameud meuts to the bill will bo slight, lcavin in, without further amendment, the 7t section of the Senate, bill which iuteresl bankers so much. Tho national bans by its passage, will bo compelled toban on a bond bearing ouly four and a ha per ceut. interest. Tho late Indian dissatisfaction, seems is confined to the Sioux, thoug tho War Secretary feels that there is itu minent danger of this dissatisfaction e: tending to othor tribes, and has ordere all available military force to the pluiuB f< the protection of tho Pacific Railroac and tho Bettlers generally. Thero is strong pressure brought to bear upc the Secretary, to at once recommend tl necessary legislating to carry out tl treaty made with Sioux by Genera Sherman, Torry and others, a long tin: einen, which binds the Government I placo them on reservations, and fee them from the public crib two years, is thought that such a movement on tl part of tho Secretary would stay tl threatening hostilities, und save tl lives of thousauds of settlers. The Board before whom Commodo Upshur has been tried for conduct unb coming a United {States officer, in heil a party iu negotiating tho sale of eade ships, has reported to the Secretary the Navy. Tho public has not been mai aware of the naturo of the report, tl Secretary desiring somo days for a car ful examination of tho caso befoie r porting.

Dur? ing the day, the child said to its mother, "if I were to die, would I go to Hea? ven V" SENATOR SAWYER.-Tho gratitude of South Carolina is due to United States Senator Sawyer-first, for successfully introducing the excellent public schools of Charleston before the war; and second? ly, because, since the war, though a Northerner by birth aud a decided Republican, ho has done moro substan? tial good to tho South than auy other citizen living South of the Potomac.

As tho veneration of the Virgin Mary is a characteristic peculiar to the Church of Romo, therefore, in Catholic coun? tries, this, the month of May, is espe? cially dedicated to ber. The sweetest blossoms of the garden, tho field and the woods, with tho beautiful accents of de? votion, will bo presonted by all pious Catholics at the altar of tho Mother of God. Technically speaking, May is the last of the spring, and Juno tho first of the summer months. Therefore, it is not yet summer.

The report reads: "From $2,500,000 to $3,000,000 would be added to the value of our cotton crop, if wo were to mauufucturo it into yarns and woveu goods." The figures should read $250,000,000 to $300,000,000. GARDENS.-This is a subject of interest, to nil people. A good garden is said to bo half a living for a family during tho summer months. Tho lato spring has kept these back until recently. They now begin to show the vivifying influ? ence of genial spring weather. Every? thing seems to bu making rapid advance? ment in growth, and ere long wo shall be blessed with plenty of garden vegetables. Now is the time to nurse the garden. Keep tho ground stirred and loose, and hoe out nil weeds and grass, and the harvest will soon como. Horticulture is a delightful employment. It gives en? tertainment to tho mind nnd healthy ex? ercise to tho body. Wo advise every one, that can, to have a garden and give it all necessary attention.
