The iuooming Legislature is dark, of
?worse. It has not materially changed
its; lines, political or individual, ainoe
las? :vwo; lookad upon its face, though
there .maj be some slight yariatiouh in
the ehudes. There Imve been introduced
into the 3 an a to so von teen new members,
and thirty-three in the House of Repre?
sentatives. Tbo old.- members who have
been re-elected remain, politically, fn
ttaiu quo. They are mostly extreme Ra?
dical,, w?tk"ftfe>>l^ have shown some
slight, tendeuay to Conservatism, and
bVeto and there, a Democrat. The. newly
elected membora on the Moses tioket are,
without exception, all strongly pro
noaooed Radicals. Taking the bodies as
they stand, old and new, we have in the
House twenty-one Demoorate, acid in the
Senate eight. Tbis constitutes a pretty
respectable minority in numbers, capa?
ble, as stich, by harmonious aotion, by
deploying or concentrating, as circum?
stances may require, of doing much
good fo- tbe State; and, still more, by
their force of obaraoter, by energy and
watchfulness, and by unswerving fidelity
to the principles <ind policy which they
hkvmundortsken to represent. The well
being of the State is, In part, committed
to their keeping; its honor, to some ex?
tent, is confided to their hands. They
are bonad, as good men, and true repre?
sentatives, to take' nil necessary cure of
tbo one and to maintain and vindicate
the other upon all proper, occasions.
They bold commissions from tbe people,
Who expect from them arduous aud faith?
ful aervioo. It is from them must conie
any real oheok lo the prevailing fltgrant
ftboaea, any ourtuiloiout of the euortnoua
expenses of'government, and the initia?
tion'of any true measures of reform.
They nro charged with the task of en?
deavoring to oorreot errors and wrongs
in tbe past, and of their prevention in
tbe future. Where this is impoaaible,
their faithful exposure of them will do
much .good. They will be expeoted to
show a keen iusight %nd-interest iu all
matters which come before them in their
delegated capacity. Tbe eyes of the
country aro upon these gentlemen, both
to observe and encourage. As individu?
al members, their conduct should show
ho warp or taint in their personal inde?
pendence and integrity, and when they
aot they will do it circumspectly, patri?
otically and effectively. We expect
much from their moral spirit and high
tone. Ooarage, honesty, industry and
patriotism, like blood, will toll anywhere
and everywhere.
We will follow down the list of mem?
bers of the House of Representatives.
Tbe wnrd "Democrat," opposite to a
name iu this list, teile u tale generally of
straggle, and of the victory of sound
principle. That "Democrat" has proba?
bly had to battle against heavy odds,
against the world and flesh ol tempta?
tion, blandishments and threats, and the
devil of bribery and corruption. We are
disposed to honor him in advance. In
Anderson tbe names of John Wilson aud
J. O. O. Feather stone appear with "D."
John Ooohrane is with them, but is, in?
nocuous as he is, on the stool of repen?
tance. From Chesterfield we have A. M.
Liowery and W. W. Spencer, both true
men. Mr. Lowery is no novice, baring
been ip the Legislature many years ugo.
He is well acquainted with legislative bu?
siness, is of excellent character aud of no
mean abilities. We welcome the delega?
tion from Greenville?J. P. Moore. S. S.
Orittenden, James MoOnllough aud John
H. Good wine. Mr. Orittenden served
.'tbe last term, and is favorably known.
Messrs. J. 3?. Dosenberry and N. B.
Cooper com? as Democrats from tbo
Ooanty of Horry. Henry A. Meutze
and J. U. Lowman appear from Lexing?
ton. Mr. Meetne is an acquisition. He
ie true us ateel, with fair speaking abili?
ties and genial manners. His companion
ia, we doubt not, worthy of his oom
pany. Mr. Black, from Lancaster, and
Edmoud Herndon, from Ooonee, uro all
right. The election of R. E. Bowcu,
Demoorat, of PiokouB, bus been contest?
ed. We hope that he will oome through
? right side up. The Spartaubnrg dele?
gation is beaded by Hon. Gabriol Can?
non, a pure man, of ripe experience, of
intimate acquaintance with the condi?
tion of aflaim, and capable, if any oue is,
of dovising remedies for oar present ills.
He is accompanied by Richard M. Smith,
W. P. Compton and T. J. Moore. Mr.
Smith is bold, fearless and true; aud Mr.
Moore and Mr. Compton are in good
company. Meaars. W. H. Wallooo, B.
H. Rico aud John Wallaoe will answer
to the roll call of Union, and Union may
bo proud of her ohoioe. Gen. Wallace
has been before the public ever since his
early youth, acceptably in all positions
io wbioh he has been tried. Aa a
fpiaker rtnd writer, as an officer in
Con fed er ata service, aa a member of the
Legislature and oi the Confederate Con
gress, he boaalways and, ? e

well fitted for the present crisis in oar
affairs, and will gain iufluenoe where
most others might depair. Mr. B. H.
Rice ia a leading man in his County?a
man not to 'bo bent; or swerved' from his '
idea'of wbarfSTtglrtr ~If a man may bwj
known by - his. associate*, Mr. John
Wallace ought to be considered in a
favorable light. Daniel Williams, cf
York, wo 'know to be a good and true
man.
The Senate list includes eight Demo?
crats: John Wilson, Anderson; G. W.
Da vail, Chesterfield; T. O. Donaldson,
Greenville; J. O. Hope, Lexington; W. j
Keitb, Ooonee; W. E. Holoombe,
Pickecs; D. R. Dunoac, Spartanbnrg,
and T. B. Jeter,: Union. Mr. Wilson
j and Mr. Dayall are old members, and
oorroot, straight-forward men. Mr.
j Donaldson, of Greenville, and Mr. Hol
I combe, of Pickeus, are not so well known
here; but their good name has preceded
them. Who in Columbia?tbo Columbia
of a dozen or more years ego?does not
know J. O. Hope, of Lexington? A
I staunah man, with a prodigious gift in
delivering long speeches. The ocoaston
draws nigh when he may exorcise this
talent, if ho still possesses it, with a
vim. When be gets in the Radical me?
nagerie, we trust that he will ory aloud
and spare not. W. C. Keith, of Ooonee,
is a clever man, of fine parts, of good
education, and familiar with legislative
life. So is Mr. Duncan, of Spartanbnrg.
He will also make a good Senator. The
Senator from Union is a good match to
the members of, the other Hoose, re?
turned from that .County, and that is
Haying no little. Mr. Jeter is u correct
business man, of upright character and
great popularity. He has long been
favorably, known as President of tbe
Union aud Spartanburg Railroad Com?
pany.
Upon the whole, we have a good set of
men composing onr minority?men not
merely capable of giving negative votes,
but many of them of positive aharaoter,
having opinions of their own and ability
to sastain them; men also who, while
guarded and courteous in demeunor, can
neither be bullied nor allured into the
support of anything wrong, mean or
mercenary.
Gains in the Senate.?The Demo?
crats gain six now members in the United
States Senate. Messrs. Rioe, of Arkan?
sas, Spencer, of Alabama, Osborn, of
Florida, Kellogg, of Louisiana, Pool, of
North Carolina, and Hill, of Georgia, go
out cn tbo 4th of March next, and aa
Democratic Legislatures have been
ohoseu in all these States, good Demo*
crats will be Bent to succeed them, and
to staud by tbe side of Thnrmen, Bay?
ard, Stockton undCasscrly, io upholding
tbe Constitution and opposing the en?
croachments of the Federal Government.
The presont Democratic streugth in tbe
Senate is seventeen. The terms of some
of these Senatorj expire in March, but
in every case they are or will bo succeed?
ed by Democrats. MeOreery succeeds
Garrett Davis, from Kentucky, and Den?
nis succeeds Yiokers, from Maryland;
and Frank Blair will probably bo re
elected from Missouri. The Democratic
streugth in the Senate, after the 4th of
March, will be twenty-three. There has
not been so many Democratic Senators
since I860. Ou many questions this
Democr.itio phalanx will be reinforced
with the support of tbo Liberal Republi
oau Senators?Sumner, Schurz, West,
Tiptou, Fcnton und Spruguo?und they
may even count ou tbe co-operation of
snob moderate Republicans as Alcorn,
Ferry, Robertson, Allison, Sargeut und
Lewis, iu cases of emergenoy, when the
Administration shows a disposition to
exuevd its powers too flagrantly. These
uamoH number thirty-five, which is more
than a majority of the wbolo Senate.
Upon the whole, in spite of the appa?
rently overwhelming triumph of Grant
in tbo electoral colleges, the Conserva?
tives staud relatively muoh better in
Congress, and, at any rate, retain
streugth enough to hold Grant in ohoik.
Saludu, the Colombia correspondent
of the Charleston News, writes as follows
iu rolatioa to the bond scrip:
There are well accredited rumors to
the effect that Judge Meltoo, who heard
tbo argument in the Blue Ridge sorip
oase, will decide against its validity.
Tbe case will then be taken to the Su?
premo Court, aud, as Judge Willard will
not be competent to sit as a member of
that ooart in a oase in which he will be
compelled to review his own decision, a
temporary judge will have to be appoint?
ed by tbo Governor. There ia consider?
able speculation as to whom tbo Govern?
or will appoint. It is believed in well
informed circles that it will be Major O.
D. Molton, but this of course is not yet
definitely known.

Wave Undulating Across tub Conti
ni^nt.?'I'ho researches of the signal
offloe hnve jont been rewarded by a
beautiful and highly important mete?
orological discovery. On theooast of
England, from time immemorial, tho
phenomenon of tho groat November at
mospherio wave has boon the speculation
of scientists and seamen; but ?ir Jobn
Hersohel and others have supposed it
was peculiar and confined to Eugluud
and Western Europe, which it reaches
from the South Atlantic, and over which
it rolls in long continued ondulntivnB
from October to January, constituting
an important element in tho phecnroenal
character of European winter. On the
12th of November a similar atmospheric
wave began to break over tho shores of
Oregon and British Columbia, nn shown
by the weather telegrams. By tho even
| ing of the 13th it hud spread over ueerly
all of the Pacific States und Territories,
Utah and Nevada, and at mid night was
pouring through tho pusses of the Rocky
Mountains. On Thursday, the 14th, it
descended upon Colorado, Nebraska,
Kansas and tbe Indian Territory. On
Friday morning it extended in unbroken
magnitude and magoiQcence from Ore- I
gou and Wushiugtou Territory Eastward I
through tho great trough or depression
of tho Rocky Mountain back-bone to
Idaho and Montana, und stretched
! thence to tho Lower Missouri and Lower
Mississippi valleys and over the W? stern
shores of the Mexican Uulf. This dis
I oovery will enable meteorologists to
anticipate, by many days, tho approach
of wiuter, as it advances from the Pucifto
i coast Eastward in the great current of
Westerly winds. It serves to clear up
tho old mystery of American wiuter
storms, showing that they origiuuto in
tho Rooky Mountains, upon whose cold
and loftiest summits in Nevada, Utah,
Colorado and Southern Wyoming the
vapor-laden air of this wave, coining
over the warm Pacific, is now seen to be
condensed in tbe overwhelming suowb
of the forty-first parallel. As this vast
toriul wave is probably, liko the Euglish
wave, continned in successive undula?
tions for two or three months, it may
assist iu explaining the comparatively
high temperature and light precipitation
in winter along Puget Sound and East
ward.
Is It tue Horse Disease Among tue
Poultry??We have |bad nows for
thanksgiving day. Up the Hudson and
from the highlands and lowlands of this
river back to the Sufqoehunnah, and
how much further wo know not, a terri?
ble disease bus broken out among the
poultry. Chickens are dyiug from it
by hundreds, and ducks, geese and tur?
keys in the market arc said to betray
evidences of tho Hutno malady. It ap?
pears to resembio the epizooty; the fowl
a fleeted has a running at the nose.
But, iu addition to this symptom of
catarrh, tbe victim becomes dizzy, its
bead swells and it coon dies as of cerebro
spinal meningitis. In another part of
this paper, we give tho latest information
on the subject, and, from tho facts pre?
sented, it appears that this disease is
really assuming tho form of a destructive
pestilence among our domestic fowls.

As en evidence of tbe a wakening inte?
rest feit in the Sonth, in the manufactur?
ing of cotton, it is stated, that in tbe
y?ar 1369, the eotidn mjtis of tbe Sonth
oonHumed 80,000.bales; in 1870, it In
oreased to 91,l0GVbalei, and last jour
120,000 bales of cotton. We are glad to
chronicle these figures, and only wish
that far greater efforts would be made iu
this direction. In our own midst, no
investment could be made that would be
of1 practical advantage to tho community,
or that.would yield a more constant and
increasing divid- nd than a cotton mahn
factory. Contiguous to the city, wo

Hons i>u Comisvt.?Tbe subjoined
word-twistillcation will be appreciated
by miny, although it is emphatically
fun on a sore subject:
Upon my soie I've walkod sc mach
Siuce horses have beea hoarse,
I feel liko some pedestrian sport
In truiuiug on the course.
I've worn my boots to sanduls, und
The sand's all in my feet;
My culves won't work, if oxen do,
For horses on the street.
Such "pilgrimY. progress" as this is
Makes each man's "bunion" hate;
Aod, though a strict teetotaler,
He's corned iu spite of fate.
Forgotten now is horsemanship
And driving's a lost art.
Hotels can't furnish carriages;
They've nothing but tbe carte.
The price of leather's going up
At u most fearful rate;
And every cow hide's quivering,
Lest shufts should be her fate.
No cur 'os now will carry ub,
Urged en by driver's whacks;
Ohl for the wiDgs Icarus had,
Although they went by wax!
Then let us hope that horses may
lie freed from presout woes,
Aod running on their feet again,
Iustead of at the nose.
Qua Book Tablb.?Mr. Duffle has*
furnished us with a copy of James
Payn's latest production, "A Woman's

with tbe writings of this uuthor will, we
fancy, agree with ub that it is rather
difficult to give any adequate notion of tho
ooutents iu the sort of sketch and com?
ment combined which is commonly
known as a "review," tho reason being
that so great is the sustuinrnent of his
tales, so completely does almost every
puge contain something of incident, or
illustration, or whatever is necessary to
keep them going, that it is hardly possi?
ble to deal with thorn in mere outline.
