Supreme court lmsnf firmed the opinion of the South Carolina Supreme Court in the case of duo. Brownfield, a negro , charged with murder, and Brownfield will hang. The appeal was i taken on the ground that while four-fifths of the peoplo of the community in which the trial was helil were negroes, there was not a negro on the jury. Brownfield murdered a Mr. Scurry, in lS'JD, i at Georgetown. ? * The Civil Service Commission lias just tilled a peculiar position which might appropriately he termed the Government's ollicinl snake charmer, although the oil! cial title of thesucaesful competitor will he "aid in herpetology." The questifiealions for the place were a morougn Knowledge ??t snakes with all ability to handle them without Bcrio'.M consequence and nix applicants for the position put in an appearance. m m m There is some dispute as to the boundryline betweon Florence and Williamsburg counties. In 181K) an act. was passed to settle the matter, but for some reason this has never ' been done. As people living in | tho disputed territory are liable to be taxed in both countios, they have requested that tho boundiy matter be settled, and Secretary of State Gantt has taken up tho j ' matter with the county eommis- ' sioner of the two counties in older to adjust it. c> v * There has seldom been a time when there was manifest a more lively interest in the United States ( navy than at the present time. 1 The appropriations of the recent congross for the purpose of increasing the efficiency of the navy ( have been a source of gratification ; to moat citizens of the nation and i the navy department is now using every endeavor to secure the prompt expenditure of the appro- , priation along the lines for which it was made. * * Fearing the growing strength of the prohibitionists and their proposed State election on the liquor question, saloon k? opera of Texas have introduced into t ho legislatlire i a radical law to restrict their business and abolish the more disrenntnblr Miilnonn rPli?> liill nrAiMrluu that every liquor denier, in renewing his license yearly, must | i swear that he has violated no i statute; has not allowed minors or ' students to drink in his saloon; permitted no gambling and not < kept open on Sundays or after hours. * It will be of interest to many i' who have visited Ashville and the Bill more estate to know that George Vanderbilt has finally per suaded the negro who owned a ! dozen acres of land in the midst of the Biltmore estate to sell out and move. Thus, for the first time, Mr. Vanderbilt iH 'Moid of all he surveys" when he glances over his magnificent North Carolina property. The old negro's holding is estimated to have been worth $50 before the advent of Vanderbilt, but he made the rich man pay him $2,250 before he would consent to sign the papers. A decision recently rendered l>; i the siiijiomo court of the Unittd; States in regard to lotteries is re irardcd ?>f tin* utmost impoilance in detinini; tin* power of the Federal j^overnnicul over interstate eoinmeicp. Without yoinn into tiresome details, it may be said by the ileeir.: >n congress may exclude from interstate comim ree any commodity which it may deem prejudicial to the public welfare, and that its motives are beyond judicial inquiry. This decision mu-t. destroy the arguments ol those who have ridiculed all at tempts at anti-trust legislation through the interstate commerce j provisions of the constitution as being unconstitutional. c < ?

Ths V?.!tte of An Education. Air. D. A. Tompkins, ?>f Chnrlotte, aays the tiatVuey Ledger, has recently published iiuuros to showthat at thirty-live years <.Id the earning capacity of a liinn with a common school education and sp< cial training for his work is twelve and a half times tiler than that of ail illiterate and untrained man; that tin* earning capacity ??f a man i with a high school education and training is twenty live times greater than that of the illiterate and untrained man; that the earning capacity of a man with college ed neat ion ami training is thirty seven I and a half limes greater than that of the i I literate and tint raim d mm, and that the earning rapacity of a man with a university education; ami training is tifty times greater' than that of the illiterate ami mi trained man. So Mint the value to the commonwealth of the man with the university education and proper training F?>r his business is tifty times greater than the value of the illiterate and untrained man. If Mr. Tompkins' deduction eor-I roct, and wo have no doubt hut that it is, as he is a very pains- ! taking gentleman and careful in his statements, it is very evident that tho educated man lias Mir advantage over tho uneducated man. Therefore I) >\s, it behooves you to get an education. ? -44? The Work of Congress. The following is a brief review ,r 41...?i. . t 11.- ?-< ? ?
