Neither the suh- treasury nor auy other device—(A voice—can stop it| Mr. Tillman contin uing—can stop it. There is too much taxation and too little money in circu lation to meet the taxes.' Yon ought to do all'you can to have an income tax on the rich men of the North. The East owns the Wewt arn^ South. They own all our railroads. Thcreare thirty-four chartered roads in South (’arolina and tiie citizens of the KtaWS do not own a majority of the stock in any and the tracks all go one way. < - By the time you meet the intereefe-on your debts and pay your taxes and foecd charges there is not enough money left, to bring fair prices on your products. You want an income tax, afftl y<ni want to abolish the tax on whiskey and to bacco. I do not mean to have free whiskey and tobacco, (I see one friend shake his bead over there) but to get rid of the horde of official vermin who go around and smell your., bottles and nose around your tobacco and who as much as say, help yourself, if you dare. Let the state and the counties and cities get the bentiet of the whiskey and to bacco tax. r’ Are our peopio ready for the repeal of the lien law?

I^et them speak now or hereafter hold their peace. lien. Bon Harrison has been President ever a year and a half. He broke the monotony of his administration on Fri day by one good act, the first of which *e have any remembrance. He deserves j general approbation for signing the an* | ti-lottery bill, which will drive their ; robber literature from the l-nited States ' malls. It will be sad news, however, to the new spsper* that have been hired by Jnhal Early, O. T. Beauregard, M. A. Dauphin and Juan Piedad to help to lieeue the people. They have violated Hie Slate laws with impunity, but will lie likely to respect I’ncle Sam’s orders. The Republican State Convention met in (Vdiimhla last week and had a lively time lasting several days and nights. The business of Mr Conven- | lion was routined mainly to a fight against E. X. Bray ton, the State Chair- * man. He wa* beaten ont of his boots and Webster chosen chief captain In his stead. Hrayton proposes to keep in the race for Congress from the Seventh District and to make It hot for his ca nary colored opponent, T. E. .Miller. The State Executive Committee was authorised to pnt candidates In the field for Htate offices If It should deem such a course wise. » According to the Columbia Record some up country Itemocrats are in an nnhealihy condition. There is much quarrelling in the Third District over t.corge Johnstone’s nomination, and if lieorge W. Midi is nominated In the Fourth there Is talk that J. F. Knaor, the Republican candidate, w ill gel some Democratic *up|M>rt. These Piedmont politicians, who have been bragging for years that they are better than the low country people, should come South and learn that De mocracy is tiic rule of the majority. Every white man in the Second Dis trict w ill vote for (ieorge D. Tillman. , T*4> I •afrtssUMsl Cssvssilss. The nominating Convention of the ftecond District met at Edgefield on the Ibth inst., and was organized by the election of Col. M. B. Meoweenv, of Hampton, President, Col. J. K. Bates, of Barnwell, Vice-President, and Prof. W. N. Marchant, of Aiken, ami Mr. W. J. Duncan, of Barnwell, Secretaries. There was a full attendance of dele- gstes. Hon. Geo. D. Tillman was re- nominated 011 the first ballot,' receiving the 12 votes of Edgefield, 10 of Aiken, and 3 of Hampton, while Hon. G. Dun can Bellinger received the 1*2 of Barn well and 3 of Colleton. Both candi dates were invited to address the con vention. We take the follow ing report of Col. Tillman’s remarks from the Au gusta Chronicle: Mr. Chairman, Gentlemen of the Con vention and fellow-Cltizens:—For the eighth time in succession have I had the proud gratification to receive the nomination of the people of this district .for Congress. To say that I 1 am grate ful and proud of it would be to tell the simple truth. To be chosen so often as representative from this historical coun ty, to serve longer than any other con gressman in this state a district once represented by Calhoun and his distin guished successors, says a-great deal either for me or for the people of this fHStricL or for both. I am not vain enough to take this display of regard as evidence of any ability in me, but be- you have faith in me. You kno^.that I will serve you to the best of my ability, and undeV uo circumstan ces betray your crust. What adds to this gratification Is that 1 have been chosen during most trying times. We have just come outof a war. We have been plundered ever since we were conqhered, but all conquered peo ple must suffer, l’nfortunately we nave an unfortunate race in our midst, whom our enemies have sought to raise to our standard, or rather level us to theirs. I am sorry to say you are a oonquerod'People, and your enemies are trying to see how far negroes can be made into whiter men, how far a peo ple can be taxed and pay tribute to the oouq ueror and survive. The harder the agricultural claM works, the more self- denial they practice the poorer they get. The reason of it is the high taxes you must pay to go out in pensions. High taxes don’t impoverish a people provi ded they ire spent among the people who pay them, but when they art paid out to another people the one who re- eeivea grows richer. So a* Ireland, is impoverished to enrich England you are being impoverished to enrich the North, hot the taxes they pny they £ courts Thors that bill to pass a bill to build a oapsy forty THK SUB-TREA81RV. I am sorry I cannot into a long sjMHich on the sub-treasury and give ou something lg$tcr than that bill, on ought, to issue more money. If you do not the North will own you body and soul. They own the West too, but the Wj**t is more bitter against the South than the North is. They put a tax on Southern cotton seed oil so that it will he fit for nothing but ma nure. Where were your Western sub- treasury friends when Congress taxed your cotton seed oil; when it added three hundred |»jyr cent, on your cotton ties; whtyi tiiat infamous force bill was passed, and when the West refused to vote for free silver. It Is sickening to see the Houth talk about forming a political alliance with the West. It Is not worth while to go into details about the sub-treasury. [Cries of go ou; tell us all about it.] Well, I will tell you about it. Mr. Tillman then recited Ibe provis ions of the bill. Continuing he said : It is paternalism and protection run mad. It is a proposition to let the gov ern incut take care of your crop and al ter a while tell you how to raise it. Hampton and Colleton would not get a warehouse. A Voice-—But does not the bill pro vide that two or three counties may combine and get a warehouse? Mr. Tillman—Yes, but It stipulates that you muat carry your produce to the nearest warehouse. McCune Is the originator of that bill. He Is a reformed Republican, who failed at dentistry In Indiana, floated about California for a while, and finally wettl down'to Texas, where be manip ulated Alliance money. Is there any justice In taxing other Industries to build warehouse* for the products of the farmers. The Alliance professes equal justice to all and spe cial favors to none. Jf that aim spe cial favor what Is It? Two Republicans framed that hill. There is no Democracy in It. It Is a bridge to carry the Democratic party over, horse, foot and dragoons to the Republican party. It provides for the election of warehouse managers, but tbe constitution says Federal officers must be appointed and not elected, and you know whom the Republican* will appoint. It says toe re shall be an e 1 ac tion to deride where the warehouses shall be built. It will be a federal elec tion. not a state election. Tbe negroes would vote, and whites would divide. Would not that be a nice state of affair* ? Then there would he lots of stealing and emhesillng; cotton would disap pear, and there would be litigation. Nome of you might take a little too much whiskey and get Into fights; you would he on Keoeral ground. All would have to be tried In the I’nited States courts. You could not brin them into vour own no more chance for than there Is to pass tower to the moon. There were only two congressmen who were avowed supporters of the sub-trvssiiry bill. They had their pa pers as lawvers annulled, but the A lli- anre thought they were too enthusias tic, and did not nominate them for an other term. The most stupid thing to me tu tbe whole bill Is that HO per cent, advanced on products In the early part of the year amt at the latter end of the year the money is burned. What you need is more .uoney, all the time to keep pri ces up aud keep them steady. The bill was gotten up by a commit tee of thiee—a dreamer, a speculator and a scurvy politician— who wanted to provide a popular scheme for brokeu down politicians. Benator Vance in troduced it into the Seuate by request. He was silent about it for four months, and at the end of wnich time he de nounced it. In the meantime though the Alliance papers and tramp orators cried it aloud that Senator Vance en dorsed it, and what Senator Vance en dorses is right. Mr. Hemphill has whipped it outin his district. lu Geor gia all the strong politicians went back in spite of it. Two of them did not seek another term. Maj. Barnes was not defeated ou account of it, but op ac count of the prejudice of the country against the city. 1 seek to protect the Alliance, to keep politicians from pros tituting it. 3taud by the Alliance and vote for Alliancemen and measures, but not as a secret body. It is time I should close, though I have not said one-tenth part that could be said agaiust this preposterous hum bug. If the West Is being robbed by the East they will come to us., At tbe No vember elections we will see whether the West is inclined to unite with us. Don’t be in too great a hurry. We were in a hurry in ’00, but we have been repenting it ever since. Wait and see if the West will come to us. Put an iucotne tax on the wealth of the East. There are four reasons why I have no use for the sub-treasury bill- it is a crude, impracticable. Republi can, uhconstitutional measure. Livingstone, Folk, McCune and two or three others were put upon the legis lative committee at the Nt. Louis meet ing to suggest the outline of the meas ure, but McCune and Waddlll drafted It. The five cent* you send up there will go. They must pretend to be do ing something to earn those big sal aries they are getting. The great, just God, h4 said, Is tem pering the wind to the shorn lamb. The production of cotton ts not keep ing pace with Its manufacture. The South raised a line provision crop last year and a few more will bring the West to its knees. It will have to burn corn for fuel again and will be a drug on the market bringing no price. Then the West will come to the South and seek an alliance to raise the mon eyed oppression of the East. Mr. Bellinger was called for a speech. He thanked the convention for the com pliment. He said there wen no issues to discuss; they had. been buried. Candidate for etl woe Id gjve Alliance Department. Adopted as tbe County Orjcau by tbe Coun ty Alliance July5th, lebd. M. J.

Pocket SftMisr for Whsa. [New York Sun.] One of the crying evils of the time, Mrs.’ Alice E. Ives tells us iu the Forum, is the lack of pocket money, or pin mon ey, for married women, with it* conse quence of their "slavish pecuniary de pendence on their husbands. She fortifies her argument with Illus tration* drawn from actual life, where wives of rich men maintaining luxuri ous establishment* are kept orqctfcHlIy pemiUlMi themselves. TheirhmBwitld*. with more or less grumbling pay their millinery and huberdashy bills, but leave them unprovided with’ a private purse from which they can draw at pleasure tor their little want* and char ities. If the wives need money, no mat ter how little, they must beg it froiju their lords, and givean exact account of what they proftose to do w+th it. They are looked, upon by their neigtTImT.s as rich and enviable, but in truth they are poorer than their very ~*erv;tnt!s and with less liberty. They are treated as if they were children not to be trusted w ith money, aud of Utoffminci.il discre tion. Accordingly, after the’' maunerof the enslaved, the wives use deceit and trick* cry to obtain the few dollar* they want to expend in their own way. They ‘get their milliner* to send iu a bill for forty dollar* instead pf thirty, the real price, in order to take tbe extra ten for them selves.” Others of these miserabhN-rea ttires are too conscientious for that, and Mrs. I vo* draw* a realty pathetic picture of their attempt* to esrane from pecuni ary bondage by secretly working for the pittance of the sewing girl, whose inde pendence they envy. __ Of course slie speak* with knowledge and reveals the secrets of her sisters in so saying. Her testimony, too, is support ed by general obseivation, and probably by the experience of many w ives who read these words. It may be that the husbands are not penurious, but merely thoughtless, not to say sellish. They . Foe Sale. A House and Lot in the town of Blark- vilie. $>.

Some *ix or eight year# ago the moun taineers of Western North Carolina were greatly alarmed by mysterious rumblings within Bald mountain. The noisy mountain became quiet and the anxieties of the people were allayed. In October after the great' August earthquake they were again alarmed by dense clouds of smoke rising from Watch Knob, Rocky Knob and five other Blue Ridge peaks on Bee Tree Creek, a trihutary of the Swannanoa, twelve miles east of Asheville. The smoking lasted'two week* and ceased. Last year the *moking began in Sep tember and continued three weeks, it commenced again two weeks ago and i* more startling than ever. Grand father mountain,ju*ttwo mile* from Asheville, and Mount Mitchell, the loftiest in the United States East of the MisMissippi river are giving out volumes of black smoke. Scientific men have long held that centuries ago that region was one of volcanic activity. The contours of ex tinct cratera remain as plain as print telling of pre historic ’ disturbances. The existence of the Hot .Springs, forty miles beyond Asheville in the French Broad Valley, show that the mysteri ous underground forces or furnace* are stil! at work.
