Carroll supported the resolutions, which were opposed by James H. Hammond, J. A. Calhoun and It. R. Carroll replied to Col. Hammond. Resolution 1, concerning an agricultural professorship in the Stale College, was, on motion of Col. Hammond, laid on the table, seemingly without a division. Ity a vote of tifty-seven ',o thirlvfour the Convention refused to table Resolution *J, as to a geological and agricultural survey of the State which resolution, aftera separate vol* on the "agricultural survey" which carried, thirty-eight to thirty-two was agreed to as a recommendation to the General Assembly. The third, fourth and fifth proposiflr tions were put and rejected. mm .1. M. Felder offered a resolution recommending to the Legislat ure "to take measures to secure a sound and stable currency in this State." This motion was tabled. AN AOKKUJI.TrUAL. SOCIKTV. Dr. James lb Davis olTered a series : of resolutions providing for a State Agricultural Society: an annual I air and stxick show: premiums for best lot s of cotton, best variety of corn, small grain, etc: premiums for best essays on culture of rice, corn, small grain, cotton and the grasses: management of negroes and improving lands: and ' the formation of agricultural societies in each district. These resolutions were seconded by ; Col. J. H. Hammond "in a speech of some length." Mr. W. 1 (rooks proposed, and to this proposition the Convention agreed, to aid in the establishment of a cheap weekly agricultural paper. An amendment was adopted "recommending to public patronage, as a means of diffusing agricultural information, such papers as may be published in the State having for their object the dilfusion of ail matters pertaining to agriculture." Mr. J. E. Calhoun moved to lay on the table the resolutions relating to j agricultural papers. IDs motion was rejected. J I'UKNl IKNt'lS OK W. UlLMoKK SIMMS. loa W. tiiluiure Sltnins introduced the 8<*v following preamble and resolutions? which now, after sixty-four years, are thi well worth reading and preserving not only for the eminent author's sake, i but on account of the present interest Su In the subjects treated: fol "Whereas, in consequence of the ' scattered condition of our settlements ide throughout the country the present plan of pour school education is found ^b inoperat ive in most instances and par- htial and unsatisfactory in all, those lh" towns and cities alone excepted where 11,11 the number of pupils is sutllcientiy 1 ureal to justify the employment of OU! competent teachers. 18 lie it recommended to the (Jeneral Assembly of the State, uow in session, of that a tract of laud not to contain tai loss than fifteen hundred nor more than live thousand acres, centrally oui chosen, or as nearly so as practicable, 811' be procured in each of the districts, C01 with which the poor establishment of 11 such district shall thenceforward be lai endowed; that on the said tract of l.iud suitable buildinjrsshall be erected rel for the reception and accommodation of such a number of poor boys as, according to the census of tlie district, c*d it shall in- likely lo contain; tleat ba provision be made of all the usual and |H> necessary utensils for farm culture, as uf practiced in said dlslriet; that it be moderately stocked with horses, cattie, sheep and ail such other animals tin as are found useful in such an estab- to lishmcnt: that, when t his is done, a teacher of known intelligence and in- ad tegrity be procured, who shall receive an ade?|ual*' salary for the tuition of < all pupils who may be placed under his care by, the commissioners of the sy said district; and that for certain S(.t periods of the day and in certain (j(, classes and divisions, to he hereafter ^ determined by the eommissioners, lie shall have entire control of their ^ studies ami their time; that, at all yl( other periods, the said pupils shall be |n placed under the control of a competent superintendent, or overseer, who pr( shall direct their labors and industry SU) while preparing them, as farmers and planters, tor the proper performance of sucli duties in after life as may y,, seem best to correspond with their (jl(' condition and necessities; and that w the comiuissioncis of each district be , empowered t?? receive as indented apprentices to tin- poor school of said district, on behalf of the State, all such boys the parents of whom may heloundd si p>us of securing for them the advantages of such tuition and all such orphans as, governed by a praiseworthy ambition, may be willing to avail themselves of the same; the sir term of apprenticeship in no case to nc be less than three nor more than seven Ju years, unless in 1 tie case of such ass youth as may he already greatly ad- <li> vanced towards the years and purposes u? of manhood and who, at the discretion fai of the commissioners, may be received elf for a still shorter period." al AND TIIK UIULS, TOO. sct He it recommended yet farther, f'1 that on the same pi Dilation or tract J*'' of land, but removed from close prox- V imity to the dwellings and the school ( " house of the boys, there be erected e( suitable houses for the reception and accommodation of poor girls, who shall be placed under the tuition of 1 one or more female superintendents, S(," fr- un whom they shall the or- ei* din:iry elements of a plain English an education -and in addition, such du- 's. lies of a farin and household as commonly devolve upon females in our country: that they shall spin, weave c ' and sew: attend to poultry and the ' } dairy, the culture of the silkworm, if SO( IIG it be deemed advisable, and oe taught . also how to fashion and make their w own and the habits of the Iwiys: the latter, in turn, performing all those * severer labors ot the plantation as will yield sutti dent fooil and provision for NV<. both establishments. a He it lurther recommended, that, in 1 r. addit ion b the studies of tl?e ordinary ^ English grammar school, the master r of the nule department shall be re- J1'1 quired to instruct his pupils in a com- ' potent knowledge of simple land sur- ('U veyintf. ,s It is recommended, also, that the dress of the bo;,s lie made uniform and that t he cider hoys, ran^tn^ from the yo years of Into is, he provided witli (!< lijtht muskets and he subjected to the pi; drill and instruct ion, once a month, lif of the neighborhood captain of mi- is lilia. eh Kesolved, That these rerommenda- Ei t ions lie respect 1111ly submitted to the dh (ieueral Assembly, with the prayer of wl this Convention that they he. subject- Su cd to examination and experiment in su three of the districts of the State, in rai order that their operation may he tit witnessed previous to their general to adoption as a system for all the div- foi LricLs.

THE COLAR LINE NORTH. Negro Preacher Unable to Kent a Hoiiho In Watertown, A dispatch from Watertown, N. Y., > i the Bev. J. Douglass Jackson, a gro preacher, who went there on ly 1 from Ilichtield Springs to ;ume charge of the African Methoit Episcopal Zion Church, has been able to find a home for himself and oily. He savs that he has made orts to secure a home, and on severoccasions places have almost been tired through white directors of e church, but as soon ac those about lease a house learn of the color of e prospective tenant he is turned wn. Now and then a nlaee Is nlT,>r. him In ;i block of questionable relation, but this he refuses to accept, he says It Is such places as these at he proposes to breakup, Jackii has a wife with liitn, and an jhteen-year-old daughter he Is xlous to take to Watertown as soon lie can rent a house. lie is about years of age and is having large ngregatioiis of colored people in his urcli, which is in the tenderloin itrlet, and which will be moved as >n as the directors can raise the cessary funds. A brigadier general 10 served in the civil war made the nounceraent on learning of tlieclorman's plight, that while lie ssessed only limited means, he ?uld start a subscription to purchase louse for tills or any colored preachwlio might succeed him. lie is lling to subscribe $50, and within a iv days a home for Jackson may be rchased. It is thought probable at the deal will have to lie made ietly, and by white people, so great the prejudice against the negro race. A Diilirui Son. The Columbia State says: "A ung physician in Georgia lias asked iv. Terrell's permission to take the ice of his father who is serving a e sentence for murder. The father 04 years old and lias been in prison tlit years, lie killed a man named lly witli whom lie had a business agreement, going to the church lere Lilly was superintendent of a nday school, tiring at him until the perintendent fell in the door as he n out and in the presence of t lie vlen's children cut his throat from ear ear. The son say he cannot hope r a pardon for this crime hut Is wilg to make atonement in his father's ad and let the old man spend Ills >t days in freedom. Under our burn laws this is impossible, of course, d wisely so, for no truer words are ind in Holy Writ than the daclaraii that the sins of the father shall visited upon the children even to e third and fourth generation, it unnecessary for man-made statutes ad 1 to that decree. A (itxiil taw. There is a law on the New York itute hooks providing for heavy nishment for the man who, under y circumstances whatsoever, strikes nan whose eyesight compels him to ar eyeglasses. This law was passed food many years ago, and it has vays been rigorously enforced, rappy men who never thought to > the inside of a prison have done I ,ter sentences in Sing Sing and 1 icr New York penal institutions forgetting it if, indeed, some of in ever knew that the law of 'w York State will not tolerate any abuse of the chap who has to wear j( (glasses or spectacles. It is a| mliarly hut a perfectly just and mirahlc law, considering the disaditage under which a man with inlor eyesight must necessarily labor a light with a man whose eyes are right, and New York is said to lie only State in the Union that has ;h a law. Two ItrutcH. [>oc Maxwell and Jesse Hall, white ' n, were convicted at Klberton, (la., 1 Monday of criminally assaulting a ;1 ored girl and were sentenced to ten ' irs In the penitentiary, the Jury 1 ring recommended them to mercy. |1 ^ ? TRAIN ROBBERS SHOT. One In Killed l?y mi Ki|ireM Mohmoii lt?r mid Another Wounded. A dispatch from Portland, Ore. says the Atlantic express on the Ore gon Railroad and Navigation lim wlilcl) left there at 8.15 o'clock Thurs day night was held up by four iuaske< men an liour later near Corbett sta tion, 21 miles east of Portland. On* of the robbers was shot and killed bj Kxpress Messenger Krtd Korner an* Engineer Ollle Barret was serlousl] wounded by the same bullet. Artei the shooting the robbers iled without securing any b*?oty. Two of the high waymen ixtarded the tralu at Trout dale, a station 18 miles east of Port land, and after the train hud got un der way they crawled over the teodei and covered the engineer and tiremai with revolvers ami told them to stoi at mile post 21, which Is near Corbet station. As the train slowed down two more men appeared. Two of the rohtx f! compelled the engineer to get out ol the cub and accompany them to tin express car while the others watcher the fireman. The men carried sever al sticks of dynamite and when thej came to the baggage car, thinking ii was the express car, threw a stick al the door. Express Messenger Kornei heard the explosion and immediately secured his rille and opened tire. Tin bullet pierced the heart of one of Liu robbers and went through his body cntering the left breast of Kngineei I far re tt, who was just behind him Ifarrett's wound is aiwive the hear and is not necessarily fatal. Sheriff Story and four deputy sher iITs left Portland on a special train fo the scene of the robbery. Sliortlj after their arrival there one o? tiu gang of outlaws was found a short distance up the track badly woundcr from a charge of buckshot which In bad received in the bead. He wa placed on board tire sheriff's specia train. The bandit said that his nam* is Jim (Jonncrs, and that lie is frort Portland, but refuses to make kuowi the names of any of tire other bandit or the direction in which they went. SUICIDE OF A YOUNG WOMAN. Stir Threw Hemcl!' in Front ol* * I'ussing Train. At Cleveland, Ohio, on Tuesday, instant, despondent and dishearten*. < over conditions, some of which, ura; never be known, Miss Olive Kayl, sis ter of I ?r W. L Kayl of Glcnnvillc whose body was found badly crushe* and severed Into several pices on th Lake Shore tracks, in Gordon Park early Tuesday, threw herself in Iron of a passing train or lay down on th track to await death. This w;ls tin opinion of the police Tuesday-nigh after a dav spent hy the entire deter tive force in attempting to unrave the uncertainties which surround tin death of the young woman. The be lief of the police t hat she was no murdered and her oody placed up.u ttie track, is practically substantial ed by the coroner and a second phy siciati who performed the autops; over the body, neither, whom inclin to the theory of murder. Notwltb standing their belief that the case i one of suicide, the police are stil working on it, and will continue tod* so until further effort in that direeti* i seems useless. Miss Kayl went l Cleveland from Wellsville, Ohio, sunt time ago, to take up the work u nursing with lier brother, who is physician, and entered a tralnini school for nurses almost immediatcl upon her arrival. The only case fo self destruction, if the youuu womat proves to have been such, is a dh appointment in a love allair at Wei It ville, and this is said to have been tin cause for Miss ltayl's leaving he home city. A Chicago Mystery. Early Wednesday morning the dea bodies of Harriet Elizabeth Webe and lincenti Talamini, a marble cui tcr, were found on Lexington evenu just south or ."?4th street Chicago, 111 Moth had been shot twice, and whil I here are indications that t ne man sbo the woman and then killed himscll there are other teatures to the c is ttiat make it somewhat mysterious Arthur M. Laurie, with whom th dead woman had made her home, wi be held by the police until after th inquest. There is no evidence connect liitf him with the sh voting, but he i detained as a witness. The body o the woman was indenlitied as that o "Mrs Laurie," but when Laurie wa brought to the police station lie sail she was not bis wife and that lie dii not know whose body was tound will hers. In tfoinK through the effects of Mis Weber an envelop was found addressei evidently in the handwriting of tli man Inocenti Talamini. In seekini Talamini to tind what lie mi^hl kno\ to the woman or shooting, the olllcer identilicd the dead man at. Talamin himself. No cause is known why Tal ainini should have shot the woman but she had told several of her friend the day before of a Jew who bad heel following iier and of whom she wa afraid. Talamini lias a Hebraic coun ten a nee and it is a general theory thu lie sli'/t her because she refuser! t< l?1!l rru 111 in In the man's hand was a revolve willi four chambers dischaixcd, ac counting for the four shots tired. Tin people living in the nciKhhorliooi where the tragedy occiired dcclan that more than four shots were lirei and one bullet crushed through a win riow. These faets have led the. polio to believe that there may have been ? third party to the shooting. Tin Wclicr woman is a native of I>etroit Mich. I<et l lifin Alone.

Two ] years ago the woman came from Russia to marry a man whom she had known in her native land. She fouud - him married, with a family of two f children, and she attempted suicide. I She then paid $200 to a "Sehatchen." / or Hebrew matrimonial broker, to r arrange a marriage, but the intend* d t, bridegroom withdrew, and the woman . took carbolic acid. Her life was sav. ed, however, and when she iiad saved . up another $200 from her wages she . again resorted to the schatchet who r found a man who promised to marry ) her. The engagement was announc> ed last week, and the event celebratt, ed with a patty. Later the woman learned that the man she was going . to marry had a wife and three ehili dren in Russia. She was found dead r Tuesday. The .11 on ill Ol' Sunshine. October is one of the uiost regular ' of the year.
