The Supreme Court of the United Ste tenon MondHV fiftirnied the judgment i.f tite Circuit Court for the District of Honth Carolina in favor of the State of South t arollna In. the ault against the Co «daw Mining Company. The Octo pus has had a long real. • The speech making campaign will open at Greenville on the. Kith in*t. '1’he committeaof Arrangements has Invited Gov. Tillnian, Lieut. Gov. Gary and Col. Robert Aldrich to try^eonelunioiiH tln*n and there with Hon. .lohn Shop*, paid and .lames L. Orr. Congreaaman L. F., Livingston, of Georgia, a full blooded Democrat, thinks that i f the I louse of Represeuta- tives shall tlnaily fall to pass a bill fav- t»ring thrVfree coinage of silver, seven Southern States will give their electoral Votes next fall to the Third Tarty can didates. He has hopes, however, of the passage of the bill before adjournment. The Third party movement Is march ing through Georgia. From presentin- diratioon It stands almost a sure chance of carrying five State ami Federal elec tions next fall. - The Columbia Register says that of 1,000 sub-Alllaiices heard from all but thre* have adopted resolu tions favoring the Third party move- meat. When these three learn that the Democratic majority in Congress has gone hack on the free coinage of silver they will lie likely to make ths new de parture unanimous. We do not know what kind of a cam paign the candidatca for oHices of high profit and honor may desire the coining races in this State to In*, nor do we care what their wishes are In that direction, hot wc lielieve that the sound ami so fter minded |»eople, who have no axe* to grind and w ho liavo at heart the ^»eat interests of the State, favor a campaign of argument and rcaaoii rather than one of excitement and assertion. They de sire, we think, that It shall he conduct ed in a maimer liecninlng the issues at stake and the interests involved, so that when the family quarrel is settled by the primary elections and cotivsntiotis every l>eiiiocral can be eiilhusiasllc In supimrl of the party nominees and no one have any excuse to sulk at home, nursing his own aorehead nr nmurulng for the defeat of his faveritea. We don’t apprehend any iiule|N*iidentisM this year, for the fruila of that movement two year* ago were so bitter to its en gineers that none of them can care to re- |M‘at the ex|»erimeiit As me see things evrrytiody will lie Imund in honor and conscience to accept the results of the ^sptrinl»er elections a* •*oiiclu»inii« from which there ran l»e no appeal whatever. Now that the campaign may be con ducted in the right way and with the preprr spirit it sesuns to us that it would i»e well for < hairmeii Irby and Dibble to gat together, settle the issues to lie discussed and agree upon ruleshy which their discussion shall be conducted Thai would lie something new in ^ulb Carolina imlilics, hut It would be, we think, something goal. As things now stand every man is a law unto himself, and tights in his own way. lint if some common agreement such as we have suggested «an tie reached everything w ill t>e regular, volunteer lighters and hu-hw backers will lie outlawed, the peo ple of the State will be kept in good bu- n»or, become more enlightened bv the campaign of education and made much lietiar qualified to decide the issues of the times. W hat say yon, gentlemen ? A Lillie News. Our proposition made some weeks a go, to learn by postal card report* from our farmer friend'* the real reduction in cotton acreage ami to publish the same with the end in view of helping up pri ces, did not meet w itU much favor. On ly three reports have been made. Mr. W\ J. Mathis, of Four Mile, has cut down his acreage to an extent that, if univer-ally followed would raise pri ces to a paying basis. Mr. M. K. Dvehes, of Itlaekvilla, re ports the following model crop on his place: t; acres in cotton, 5 in wheat, 2 in oats, 4 in rye, t» in watermelons, 28 in coin and pcjts, 1 in pindars, and a g »od garden, ilo has rented to tenants 20 acres to he p anted in corn and peas mid has bought no commercial fertili zers. We hope he will report further next winter. Col. Mike Brown has also abandoned the sole worship of king cotton. “Ilia crop this year will he 2.'>0 acres in cot- ton, ir>0 in oats 150 ir. corn, 40 in toma to* s, 50 in watermelons, 2<> in sugar corn, 10 in garden peas, 1ft in asparagus, 25 in tobacco, 7 in lima beans, l in strawberries, 1 in cantaloupes,5 in okra, 2 in celery, 2 in cabbage. If his vege tables will not lining paying prices he . w ill have them canned and make money out of them sooner or later. i!is truck farm is managed hy Mr. Geo. W. Ray and is as pretty us a picture. This pio neer enterprise will he watched w ith in terest, and if it shall turn out profitably, his example will be widely followed next rear.

Price, Reid and Adams, of Charleston say in their circular, issued on Friday: Since our last report the market has continued to show a declining tendency, though varied hy moments of strength, caused, in our opinion, solely by the general feeling tliat priees are low, and by the timid ty of .hears to press their advantage. ThV statistical position of .cotton has not changed, and we fail to \ lind any improvement in the demand ; for sjmt cotton. Atone time this week , ft looked as if we would again reach the 1 lowest point yet touched, but a slight .reaction set in, and^the market this eve ning ekKes steady, at a decline of 10 to j J2 feunts from la«t Friday’s price*.
