THE MANNING TOME'S WERESDAY, R 19, 1887, B. S. D!NK!NS. Edior. In Congress. the Honse Committoe on rivers and harbors, bas made the following recommendations for South Carolina: Charleston harber., $150,000; Great Pee Dee, $10.000; Santee, $10, 000; Wacamaw. $12,000. Captain F. W. Dawson of the Kes and Courier, delivered a regular tariff oration, on invitation, at a mass meet ing of tariff reformers at the Cooper Union, New York, on Wednesdav the 12th. The speech as published is an able exposition of the position of the South toward Tariff Reform and Pro tection. Captain Dawson was enthu siastically received, and his speech made the subject of much cheering. Thomas J. Cluverius expiated the murder of Fannie Lillian Madison on the gallows, in the city jail at Rich mond, on the 14th. To the last he maintained a stolid indifference, and stoutly protested his innocence. In the minds of some there was consid erable doubt of his guilt, and one of the Suprume Judges of Virginia so declared, and if the revelations of time should reveal his innocence, an other martyr will be added to the large list of victims to circumstantial evidence. His was one of the most sensational criminal trials on record. A history of his life. written by himself, has al ready been published and is sold for ffty cents. The puablication day of the Sumter Watchman and Southron has been changed from Tuesday to Thursday. Mr. D. B. Anderson, of the Sumter bar, is now at the editorial helm, its former deservedly popular editor Mr. W. F. Rhame, having retired. Its present chief will have his hands full to keep the Watchman to the high place in journalism it attained under Jis predecessors control. The Catawbas, a tribe of South Car olinaIndians, have laid claim to a large ract of land lying on the Catawba River, and through their chief, Tom Morrison, have employed counsel to prosecute their claim. A search among the archives of the Secretary of State's office has brought to light an old grant to this tribe over a cen tury old. It has the following endorse nent: "South Carolina; Pu-suant to instruciions sent by his Excellency Thomas Boon, Esq., Captain Genera! and Commander-in-Chief of his Mfajesty in the Province of South Car olina, I have admeasured and laid out unto the Catawba Indians a tract of 144,000 acres of land upon the Catawba or Wateree Rtiver, agreeably to the treaty concluded and rati iled lately at Augusta with said Catawba In dians at the General Congress holden by his Majesty's instructions with all the na tions of Southern Indians and their Excel lencies the Governors of South and North Carolina and Georgia, and his Honor, the Governor of Virginia, which may more fully appear by the above delineated plat. "Certified by me this 22nd day of Februa ry. 176t. SA'L W!Lr, "Deputy Surveyor." Of these 144,000 acres the Indians claim to have remaining less than $00 acres. The Catawbas espoused the cause of the Colonists in the Revolu tion, and during the war between the States volunteered to fight for Sonth Carolina, and made good Confaderate soldiers. THE ACTION OF THE GOVERN OR. The Governor in the matter of the two Auditors of Clarendon, promptly decided in favor of Captain D. J. -Bradham. We were not concerned one way or the other, and if no opin ion had been expressed in the Tixs as to the merits of the parties, we would be glad to remain silent. As it is, we wish the position of the Texs to be understood. It will be remem bered that the commission appoint ing Mr, . -E Scott did not expire 'till the 29th of January. The commis -sion of the Auditor, we contend, is a franchise from the State. which after it is once vested becomes a right which cannot be taken away except for cause, such as misconduct in office and the like. It is binding on the State, the Governor making the ap pointment, and his successor in of fice. The commission of 3. E Scott contains this recital: "This commnis sion continnes in force for two years from January 29th, 1885." Hence our position is that there was no va cancy in the auditor's office until the .lapse of the commaissisn January 29th, 1887, and consequently a commission to another auditor previous to the date referred to was null and void. We have not enquired further than the commission of 3. E Scott. If it was issued properly, and we must con clude it was, then we are right and Mr. J. E Scott should have been :d lowed the emoluments of the auditor's office until his commnis"ion expired. We dislike very much the distinc tion of giving public expression to opinions contrary to th'ose of the ex ecutive of the State,-Our position has been explained in as few words as NEW RAILROADS. Our Smter neighbors are all agog over the prospect of a new rairoad with Sumte r as its termin. pl. The propo sed road is a branch or contir.u ation of the Eutawville -Railroad, from Vance's Ferry over the S:uitee River. It is pojected to run by Summerton in this county and fro:a thence in the most direct route to Sumter. Our neighbors may well be pleased with this enterprise. Its advantages to Sumter are inestimable. The route now mapped out is through the most fertile and prosperous part of Claren don. It is rich in cotton lands yvld ing the larger part of the cotion crop of the county, and Sumter being the most accessable, the mujor part of this profitable trade will be drawn, we fear, to that market. Indeed a new era of progress and wealth seems ready to dawn upon our sister town. Still another railroad on a more mag nificent scale than the first, is talked of, and a surveying party has already been out marking out the route. This is called the Charleston, Cincinnati and Ohicago Railroad, and will, if completed, place Sumter in direct, communication with the huge markets of the western country. This road will touch a portion of Clarendon. Our esteemed correspondent "Argo naut" describes the locality of the sur vev in his article to-day. These roads, if built, and there appears very little doubt on that point, will beneft cer tain sections of Clarendon. The im mense wealth in timber on the Santee River'which has been idle all these centuries, can be utilized; besides the ready commerce of the world will be open to this hitherto excluded part of the county. But it is very doubtful whether these contemplated Roads will add anything to the county at large. If the people contiguous there to are weaned thereby to other mar kets and fields of investment, carrying money out of the county, the Roads will be a drawback to the general prosperity. On the other hand an in calculable benefit will be their conse consequence. A WELL TIMED QUERY. The Sumter Advaznce with the per tinent query '-Is It Dead ?" says : There was to be a meeting of the Sumter County Agricultural Associa tion here~on the 13th inst, but there were so few present that it failed. Is the Association dead? If so, it is to be very much regretted for if there ever was a time when the farmers of the county needed each other's help in the way of counsel, advice and com parison of experiments, that time is now." The remarks of the Ai-:mee apply with equal force to the Clare~ndon1 Agricultural Society. Last simm er along about the time of the Primary campaign, the organization seemed to blossom and flourish, spreading its branches into every Township, envel oping all farmers in its luxuriant folds. It was'a grand thing-a regular hay en for the candidate, who within the shelter of its friendly embrace lustily hlloed the wonderful properties of this offspring of a progressive age. Lhe agricultural association was to banish all the poverty and its unpleasant con seuences from the land. Liens. mortgages, and all such exils headed its proscription .list. New and fresh laws, negating the old, budding with gold and riches were to be proclaim ed. Some men almost went mad in sining the praises of this harbinger! of a better day. To not be enrolled a member of the association was in sanity; and to oppose its onward march, meant to be trampled under foot. Well the Primary election at last came to an end, and with it, it app'ears. the Clarendon Agricultural Associa tion. We cannot recall a meeting in several months past. The TnE~s, last summer, joined the chorus extolling the benefits of a properly conducted agricultural association, and lam'ents now the carelessness and indid'rence displayed by the farmers in allowing their organization to collapse. We agree that the farmers need each oth r assistance "in the way of counsel, advice, and comparison of experi - ments" preeminently at this time. Tho projectors of the association in~ 'this county should reorganize it and rnot allow its enemies the conspicuous opportunity of dubbing it the twin brother of the Primary election.

Thomas, formeriy-' of this count'y, nlow of Wedgefield, writinlg ~iu th~e last .- tan ad Smn orna o the falliag off of cotton weights in Charleston, joins hands vith the Clar endon "Farmer," and pours out a per feet fusibule on the Charleston cotton factor. Quoting ceriain statistics of the cotton receipts at the ports of Charleston, Savannah. and Wihuirng ton for the year 1884, '83, and '86, which show that Charleston has lost in shipuents during these years 119,897 bales, Mr. Thomnas says: It wmiloi be wd 1 for :' Exchange to nob those tigrs. siOWing. toit whih- thie ree-:i ot: at in- (on atthr side of Ch'u-l him st;'::lily inicreased, thm r, crpsa Cals tan latve stea.iiy &---rase yearfl after ve:Lr.

The article closes with this startling peroration in on, of Ti1an:m's speeches he tels zis of Dante's Heil, over ti d.or of which was in scriel t.ei words : "'Who evt.:rs here b-.vs hop' beitnd." There is a clos(1-:d ogy btwen the door that leads to Dantt's Hell andu' toe throagh which the farmer w'aks1 wh'n he goe(s nto a cotton factor's and mnortges his home, in order to rai,-se eent cot x..it:1 %il th aeou raigeou~s ehargtes, and s:loss of weights to , sub tr.wrnd.

Apropos of this subject, the follow ing clipped from the News and Couri er is worth reading: If the agitation of this subject shall cause a correction of tLe evil cow plained of, Col. Nelson will have done a service as well to the Charleston cot ton factors as to the farmers of the tate by originating the investigations he is said to have caused. The faria rs of the State have, of course, no in terest whatever in the substantiation :r non-substantiation of charges of "fraud" against any factor or factors, mnd so far as that question (question o2 fraud) is concerned, no service whatever has been rend:ered to the farmers by the investigation recently made by the Chamber of Commerce. We hav'e never seen the letter of Colo el Nelson ref'. :ed to, but no such question is made in the aflidavits sub mitted by Ce!. Nelson, as published in the proceedings of the Chamber of Commerce. These allidavits refer on ly to "loss in weight" in cotton ship ped. They do not say a single word about '-iraud" on the part of any fac-i tor. Giving Col. Nelson credit for or liaysne, .we taite it for granted that he meant by his affidav its to sup port the real charge maide by him, owever unhappily or unguardedly his communication to the \-es and (otrie'r may have been worded. We cannot, therefore, but think Le me a to make the charge that cotton ship ped to Charleston had from some cause resulhed in a loss of weight to the shipper, and that that loss under the circumnstances of the case, sho uld not have occurredI. 'The Chamber of Commerce, however, passed over this carge, or virtually' did so, if wve un erstand the report of its committee, and directed its attention to the ques tion whether some of its members had committed a "fraud," and whether or not they should be expelled. As I have already said, we respect fully submit that the farmers have. no interest whatever direc'tiy in that uestion. In fact, wve are sorry that Colonel Nelson's communication was so worded as to permit such a diver sion from the rcal question; he must bave sought to raise the question, at least, alone in which the farmers are interested, to wit, the cause of so much loss in the weight of cotton hipped to Charleston, as is showvn so~ freuently by the returns of sales ade to'them. Now this question, loss of weight) the Committee of the hamber c-f Commterce treat very ightly, if not sneeringly. 'T hey say 'it is not int the province of the Ex hne to investigate simple losses of ~eight." That, as we have said, is te only question, in conetion with tis subject, in which the f'arm-ers are t. all imerested. If we canntt have tat investigated and the evil correct d or set at rest, we as far':uers care flOthing about suech investigatio~ns. But we cannot think the C;h-mber of Commerce will endorse the report o'f ter committee on this point. We hope they will make a thiorough in 'estigat.ion of this matter, dirteted to the point raised. It is one, I canas sure them, in which they will fn themselves as miuch. if no: more, i terested than the farmers are. AlF YOU MADE :aiserubi by Indigs tion, t.n agtoa:ln, izzin a>'s.

This was cit(- a srurprise to some of the Senators, but thiy Ml dr. Vs--st tbeiy would vote to in creae Mrs. B- r's pension as a separate m(-asure if he wouldiwithdraw his proposi auon. Mr. Yest took note of these fair promie ses and rook his seat. Then Senator Berry of Arkacnas, who rarely speaks in the Sen ate charmber, arose to say that if Mrs. Logan was to have -2.000 a year, he did not see why every widow of every oflicer frou Ma iJr-Generals to Lieutenants should not have the same. He expessed high regard for the dead Senator, but ho felt sure that General Logan hiuself, would not desire his widow to be put on the pcnsion roll. Shortly af ter this the bill passed, but the Arkansas Senator did not vote either way. Immae-1iatelv senator Vest was on his feof again asking permission to introduce a bi 1 out of order, and off-ring a measnre to in crease the pension of (eneral Blair's widow to S . ear. The Senators were aga.n surprised. but they were in a generous mood. and not being able to turn so quick ly from the promises they had made while Mrs. Log.In's pension was up, they voted as requested by the Senator from Missouri. Mr. Vnst smiled complacently at his achiev inent and the Senate proceeded with rou tine business. There are different rumors with regard to another tariff cids, but it is probabhle the question as to whether revenue matters are to be- taken up in the House this session will be -zvttled within two or three days. Mr. Morrison seems to be waiting ad Mr. R1an dall is watching. When .1r. Morrisoin was askt-d when he would try again to cil up his tariff hill, he replie. -As s:wn as enough of those Who voted against me before, come to mo and say they will vote w:th tae. As soon as I know the motion will I'- earried I will make it." What are you going to 'o about the tariff?" was ashed of one of the best informed of Mr. Randall's followers. -- We are going to reduce the revenue," he answered. "If Mr. Morrison does not move soon Mr. Randall will take the initiative." The definite result of the caucus held at Mr. rtaindall's houso a few evenings sILce was a decision to call up the revenue propo Aitions, which favors a rapeal of the tobacco tait, the tax on alehohol used in the tts, and certain specihal linor license taxces. When the motion will be made is a secr,:t, -r. Ran -all bing desirous of ke-ping his o pron ents ignorart on this po;t.
