TEE MANNIhTG TIMS. Ma.=- n gS. V. S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, JULY 25,1888. WHO WILL BE CONGRESSMAN I The Congressional Convention for the Sixth District meets to-day in Florence. The Clarendon delegation left yesterday. It is difficult to form an opinion of the result, but we think we shall be safe it% saying that the contest will lay between Col. Benbow and Mr. Dargan. According to our best information at this writing (Mon day) the strength of the candidates is distributed as follows: Col. Behbow has the endorsement of Clarendon, six vctes, and the prob able supiport of Williamsburg, three votes, giving him nine votes on first ballot. Mr.~ Dargan has the endorsement of Darlington, ten votes, and of Horry, uis votes, giving him sixteen votes on krat balot. Mr. Newton has the endorsement of Marlboro, six votes. Marion will hold her convention to day (Monday), and will probably en dorse Mr. Blue. Thus, it will be seen, the contest is close, and unless some are made, many ballots will be en before any result is reached. It is probable the Marion delega tion will at the first or second ballot sup rs Mr. Newton, as he is consid the choice of that county. Two years ago the Marion delegation with drew from the congressional conven tion, because they could not defeat Mr. Dargan. It is possible this time for Marion to support Dargan. Mar ion has a candidate for solicitor, and so has Marlboro. Marion's man has a~cweeded in getting the Horry dele gation over a Horry candidate, and Darlington's delegates, or even four of them, would ensure the election of her solicitor. Both conventions meet in Florence to-day. Marion and Dar lington, may possibly bridge the po litical chasm of two years ago by a which would by a large majori tye Darlington's congressman and Marion' solicitor. Col. Benbow'schances are in a large number of ballots, and in holding a solid front. He has six delegates to count on. Twenty-one are necessary for a choice. He will probably get ~W iamburg, but Williamsburg can't be depended on. Marion is his next hope, and unless the swap above alluded to is made, he will probably get her delegates. This will give him uminete votes in the three counties, and in ease of a number of ballots he may get two more votes from some other county, which would elect him. The above we think is a clear idea of how the ~nomination stands. A nomination may be made to-day, but the longer it is kept off by ballots the stronger will be Col. Benbow's .The Clemsen Bequest. Below we publish the principal part of ath will of(Mr Clemson, that refers to the :gisultural college. If the will is all right .anathe property safe, we see no-reason why 1tbe.'tate should not aocept. The part of ~thepsspetdonaated to the State will prob abl~agregtea hundred thoussad dollars. -gn case the property is not accepted by 1dhe State, then Mr. Clemson wishes it to be 1aed asa fund to establish and maintain a -eetic+1eb coolfor free instruction. hmiof thsState, and th dhculties ih which-they have had to contend in tthir.dorts to esthseh the business of ag Mujeanbue upon a. prs as basis, and be prewement in agriculture without a knowl ,edf-dthose sciences which pertamn par dthereto Ihave determined to de vo.tetkof my property to the estab l;Imetofan agncul1+ral college upon the Fort 'ill place. This institution I desire .tebe under the control and management ofta board of trustees, a part of .whom are hereinafter appointed, and to be modelled aiter the agricultural college of Missssippi as far as practicable. My purpose is to es tablish an 'cultural college which will arz usa u infon-+ion to the farmers and meanin.; thereror. is shouid arr thozngh instruction in agriculture and the natural seiences connected therewith. It should combine, if practicable, ph 'ca with intel11minal education, and sho d be a eminaryiof learning in which the orthe common schools can com mence to purss and Suish a course of stu duie. terminating in thorough, theoretic and pratial instruction in those sciences iiad arta whieh bear directly upnagricul ture;butlIdesire toaste palythat I wish the trusteesof said istuonto have full authority mud power to regulate all matters pertaining to said institution, to Sx the course of studien, to make rules for the government of the same and to changes them as in their judgemzent experience ay prove nesseary; but to always bear in mind that the benedts therein sought to be bestowed are intqed to benefit agricultur al and mechansinizdustries. I trust that Ideact exaggerate the importance of such an institution for developing the material resources of the State, by affording to its youth the advantages of scientific culture, and that I do not overrate the intelligence of the Legislature of South Carolina, ever disin' ihe for liberality, in asserting that such appropriations will be made as wHil be necessary to supplement the fund resnltng from the bequest herein made. Item 1. I therefore give anddevise toirmy eector, hereinafter named, the aforesaid Fort Ilill place, where Inow reside, formerly the house of my father-in-law, John C. Cal houn, enusistng of eight hundred and four teen acres, more or less, in trust that when ever the State of South Carolina may ac ept said prpryas a donation from me, for the puroeof thereupon founding an agriculal college, in accordance with the viewsI have hereinbefore expressed, (of which the Chief Justice South Carolina shall bethe judge,) then my executor shall execute a deed of the said property to the said State, and tamn ozer to the same all proper ty hereinafter given as an endowment of said institution, to be held as such by the said state, so long as it in good faith de votes said pro ..to the puroeof the annation ; rvid .however, thtthis ac ceptance by the State shall be signified and a ractical carrying; out be commenced wit - three years fromrthe dte of the pro bateof this my will. During this term of three yes. or as much thereof as may elapse before the acceptance or refusal of this donation, my executor shall invest the net produce of t~ie land and other property, such invested fund, awaiting the action of the Legislature. and.to, form a part of the endowment of said institution, if accepted, ort rmn a part of the endowmientof the college or school hereinafter provided for, should the donation not be accepted by the State. Item 2. The following named gentle men, seven in number, shall be seven of the board of trustees, to wit : B. W. Simp son, D. K. Norris, M. L. Donaldson, R. E Bowen, B. B. Tillman, J. E. Wanamaker and J. E. Bradley, and the State, if it ac. cepts the donation, shall never increase the board of trustees to a number greater than thirteen in all, nor shall the duties of said board be taken away or conferred upon any other men or body of men. The seven trustees appointed by me above shall al ways have the right, and the power is here by given them and their a-iccessors, which right the Legislature shall never take away or abridge, to fill all vacancies which may occur in their number by death, resigna tion, refusal to act or otherwise. But the Legislature may provide as it sees proper for the appointment or election of the othei six trustees, if it accepts the donation. And I do hereby request the seven trustees above named or such of them as may be living, or may be willing to act, to meet as soon after my death as practicable, and or ganize and at once to fill all vacancies that may have occurred and to exert themselves to effectuate my purposes as herein set forth. And I hereby instruct my executor to notify them of their appointment herein as soon after my death as practicable. The name of the institution shall be the "Clem son Agricultural College of South Caroli. na." Eutaw Springs Battlefield. Jonav, July 19th.-Ma. Enrron:-Since you have heard from me, it has been my lot to visit Berkeley county, and though it was not altogether a pleasure trip, I derived a good amount of pleasure from it. Outside of the kind hospitality of friends of Berke ley, I had the good pleasure of spending some little time in rambling about the Eu taw Springs battlefield, a place of much interest to every student of American his tory. 1, in company with a young friend, entered the place about ten in the morning. The sun was pouring down its hot rays through the tree tops, and there was scarce ly a breath of air stirring ; there were no signs of life save the chirp of a bird, or as you caught the casual glimpse of a crow from his giddy height as he wended his solitary flight across the heavens. The stillness and the desertion which was grad. ually prevailing around, gave a deeper and more solemn interest to the place. My thoughts were many and solemn as I enter ed the place where so many of our brave men grappled and died. From the time of entrance until we came out, there was scarcely a word exchanged between me and my companion. I found many objects for meditation. The mounds where the dead were buried are still there to be seen, and by close observation I could see some im plement of war ; and though there is no consanguineous relation between myself and those who perished there, I felt when I was wandering around those mounds, as though I were around the graves of rela tions, and when I left, my thoughts still lin gered behind. The crops in this section have stopped growing for the want of rain, which if they don't get soon they will not make anything. The farm boys have about quit work, and the catfish are seeing a hard time in San tee. M. What is Being Done for the Orphans. -0 Rev. L B. Payne, Superintendent of the Methodist Orphan Home, Ma con, Ga., writes: We had a great improvement in the health of our children by the use of Swift's Spe cific. We have had among the chil dren some who had scrofula-notably one case in which it was We got some of Swift's Specific and gave it to this case, and in a short while it was cured sound and well. It was as bad a case, I think, as I ever saw and had been under excellent physicians with no benefit. We have been giving it to all the children as a health tonic. We have four children and one semteswho, for years have suffered intensely every spring with erysipelas, and though they have been taking Swift's Specific only in small doses as a health tonic, they all, without exception, passed through this spring without a touch of this complaint. A young lady of the institution, who has been with us for years, has been troubled with a most aggravat ed rash ever since she was a child. She tried all the known rernedies that are prescribed for it with no benefit; but she has been cured by taking Swift's Specific, and has no return of the trouble.
