THE MANTNG TIMS@! WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 1887 B. S. DINKINS, Editor. Inappropriate. In this free enlightaned land, boast ing a National and State constitution which declares all men are free and equal, the extreme remarks of James E. Tindal before the Clarendon Agricultural Society last Saturday, seemed strangely out of place. The circumstances under which he spoke. surrounded by enlightened, thrifty, prosperous farmers, were enough to contradict his gloomy propheeies. There before him were DesChamps, Dingle, Holladay, the Coles, Lesesne, Childers, Baker, Tindals, Sprott, Plow den', the Davis's, Cooper, Melletts, and others; intelligent well-to-do men of whom this county is justly proud. These gentlemen, the greater part of 3r Tindal's audien'ce, are livin wit nesses to refute the declaration that twenty years hence the farmbers of the country will enjoy no more political rights than the eimancipated slavces to day. The history of our co.nr, since the Democratic victory o0 shows that the farming interst Is keening apace withn other industries. T'he Parmers are surely bc-tter than ten y'ears ago; then where is the room, or the reason. in placing them .on a footing with the serfs of Germany, so unhappily described by Mr. Tinudal. From this standpoint, it is a reflection on their manhood and independence., Mr. Tindal is serving this county his second term in the Legislature. The greater part of his associates at Col umbia are farmers; here at home, he sees a majority of the offices filled, very properly, by farmers. With this knowledge, and as a representative of all classes, his speech on last Saturday sounded peculiarly ill-becoming the mnan, and his position. t We have always entertained for Mr. Tindal the highest regard and esteem. What he says Is respected as the con -victions of a christian gen.lemiian, prompted by the purest motives. But as a journalist, we deeni it a duty to protest against such a harsh, bitter, antagonist.c address, coming from vwh"atever source. - NORMAL INSTITUTE IN SUM TER. The School Commissioner of Sum ter county, Mr. J. T. Wilder, spent last Friday in Manning in con sultation with our School Commis . sioner and the remaining members of the examining board. Arrangements t were perfected to hold a normal meet- t ing~ of the teachers of Sumter and C larendon, at Sumter, on the 22nd of it -August next. The arrangement is permanent, or so long as the two pres- e ent School Commissioners remain in office; and next year, about the same *time, a similar meetingr for the teach er's will be held in Clarenden. The gentlemen in charge of the matter, are sanguine that the association effectedt between the two counties, will be a mutual benefit. The burden of the work of the In-< stitute, which will last a week, will be I done by the talented local teachers. These are expected to give their la bor gratuitously, for the improvement( of their co-workers, and the elevation c of their profession. By this means the cost of the Institute will be very little. Clarendon's quota of the ex-. penses will be &uout $50. The Su perintendent of Education has prom ised able help. We are advised by Mr.Wilder that our teachers attend-; ing the Institute can get board in Sumter for three dollars for the week.t Those engaged in the noble calling oft teaching, cannot appreciate too much the opportunity of attending a nornuel institute. A wveek's attendance on] cne, properly conducted, the attentive1 teacher will learn more than by a years' close st udy' of theoretical books written on the subject. Our teachers; -one and all, should by all means make it apoint to be present at the exercis es of the Institute, to be held in Sum ter. Next year we will have one here. 'We hope to have a communication from our School Commissioner on this important subject before long. ENCAMPMENT OF FARMERS. . One of the grandest meetings in the farming interest yet held, is the gath ering of farmers 'under the direction of the Patrons of Husbandry, at Spar tanburg, on MIonday. Farmers of; this State, from every county, will be; there, and representatives of this in dustry from adjoining States are ex -pected. The exhibitions, consisting of specimen products of the soil and and the latest improvements in~ agri culture, will be large. Not the least important object of the encampment is to give the farmers of the State an; opportunity to become acquainted with the diversified products of the farm and farming implements. The full programme of the meeting has already been published. It will be interesting and instructive. Every day during the Encampment there ;pecebes. No political harrangnes, but practical advice on the science of arming, by distinguished and success ul farmers. It behooves every farm Dr, wrho has the means, to attend this miecting of the farmers. He will r-ome away amply repaid for the ex penses of the trip, with a wider knowi edge of his honorable vocation. The following information from Mr. War ren DuPre, Secretary of the Encamp ment, has been received : (1.) No charge for entrance to the rounds. (2.) No charge for minr-ral, agricul tural or native wood exhibits. (:1.) Railroads agree to carry and return exhibits free. (4-.) One fare for round trip. k5.) ' rains will run every half hour Nrom Spartanburg to the Encampment ;rounds. (6.) Amtle accommodations at the bree Hotels, boarding-houses and En ampment grounds for any crowd. (7.) Meals 25 cents each, and lodg ng and meals on the grounds $1 per av. (8.) Telegraph and Express offices s well as Depot on the grounds. The Ohio De-nmoeratic State Con ention convured at Clevehmnd, July !0th, and nominated Thomas E. Pow ii for Governor; (eorge W. Harper, tate Treasurer; Win. H. Leet, Attor m.y General; Peter J. Ma-rph, '.iem >er of the Board of Public Works. Che Convention endorsed Cleveland's Admnistration, demanded a revision )f the tariif laws, :ind condemned the >roposed reduction of the tax on Ii uer. The jury charged with the trial of rohn D. Sheahan, at Laurens, for the urder of Bishop, rendered a verdict )f acquittal, after an absence of five iours. Judge Pressley, before whom he case was tried, in his charge to he jury said: "I charge you that the loerine of highe: law is the most dan. erous and destructive doctrine that an penetrate or rule a country." heahan's principle defence was the indication of the character of a moth r and sister. If true, he could not ave rested his case on a higher or obler ground. Letter from Charleston. CIRMISroN, S. C., July 23, 1SS7. The citizens of Charleston have weltered for the last week in the hief characteristic of the "Sunny outh," with the mercury ranging in be nineti"s day and night. About wenty-five deaths occurred from the fect of the intense bear., besides more Lan a dozen horses dropped dead on Lbe streets. Tegetation is seriously anaged and unless we get rain in a brt time, the loss will be alarming. Tbe conductors' excursion brought bout 4,000 visitors to the city tihisJ eek, and all seemed to enjoy peram-j ulating the Lstreets, and rushing to nd fro in every direction, notwith tanding the burning rays of the sun. lany hundreds cruised around the carbor, and were truly delighted with eir "tril) on the ocean," as some were eard to say; but not quite, as the cean is 12 miles away and Charleston arbor is only the mouth of Cooper nd Ashley rivers. The Conmnon Pleas Court, Judge ~raser, presiding, heard the case of eo W. Malone et. al. against the es heaters of the estate of 'Thos. W. Ma ne, valued at $100,000, this week. hos. W. Malone was a lawyer of abil ty, who practiced in Charleston for hirty years, and died in 1864, leaving ,large city property with no claimant. le was reticent to his most intimate riends even, on the subject of his an icedents, and his property escheated o the State. Geo. W. Malone, a -oung m~an from Kershaw county at empted to establish is relationship o deceased, anm consequent right to he property, and wvould have done so, oubtless, but for the discovery on ne of the old records in the Custom ouse, that Thos. W. Malone landed a this country in 1832, took out na-j uraliztio'n papers, became a citizen~ ud located in Charlestou. The es ate will go to the educational fund *f the State. The trial of about twenty negroes or intimidating Government witness s came off in the U. S. Court Wed re~sday, and resulted in an acquittal. ['his was what is known as the Ku ilux case, and many northern con emporaries looked forward to it with nterest with the object of raising a iowl in case of a conviction, lIt is rue that the Government only prov a that there was an organization vhose members met 2 o'clock at night ;o "fro in money," and could not pro :ure a conviction for a conspiracy, but t nevertheless proved that threats ~vere made and carried into effect by members of this unlawful asombly, :houh they did not act conjointly. 1'he overnment can find out if it wishes to, whio the guilty parties are, ad it should spare no means to bring them to justice, that the innocent white democrats may be vindicated from the suspicion of Ku Kluxismn and those white Republicans with a few foolish negroes, who have no more sense than to be made tools of by them, held responsible for all the un lawful acts of the Ku Klux in the past, and should be made to bear the conse quence of these acts.

The examination of applicants foi West Point for the 7th District came of yesterday at the college of Charleston There were many bright applicants, but Mr. Bavlis H. Earle, of Suimter, son of Gel. Jos. H. Earle, carried o: the laurels. The examination yet tc be undergone when he arrives at West Point, is much more difficult and ma ny of the brightest young men in the country fail to pass it, not from the want of ability always, but sometimes from the lack of technical require ments; but we hope that Mr. Earle -,will overcome these by proving him self as lucky as proficient. :1. c.
