A committee of tiftcen arranged

SUBJECTS KOlt CONS1DKIIATION.
This committee were of the opinion
that the following subjects were "lit
and proper for the consideration of
the Convention:''
1. The creation bv the Legislature
of an agricultural professorship in tin
South Carolina College.
2. The appropriation by the Leg
islature of a sum of money to detrav
the rxpenscs of a geological and
agricultural survey of the State.
J. The establishment of an agricultural
school in some central and
healthy position of the Stale.
4. The establishment of a State
board of agriculture, to meet at Columbia,
or somewhere else in tire
State.
5. The introduction into our free
schools of some elementary work on
agriculture.
Charles it. 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.

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. That in order that the ex- liu
perimeiit should he fairly made the sti
districts so cnosen sitould lie one in las
each of the tfrand divisions of the in:
State, the upper, the middle and the an
lower country: and that the present foi
comiuivsio.iers ot the districts chosen tie
be requested to t ake charge of the en- tie
tire subject." tin
It. seems from the records that 's
these resolutions were not even dis- to
cussed: were iiiinicdiata ly laid on the
table, on motion ot J. E. Calhoun, of
Anderson near wuose home Cleinson
College stands to d ly its site having s,:l

kinswoman of t his Calhoun, to whom il"
her 11usl?aii<I, Thos t?. Clemsnn, pro- :l 1

this good woman, toe favorite child of il'v
her distinguished father, John C. Cal- >1'1
hotin, Col It. W. Simpson, of I'endle- sce
ton, the executor of Mr Clemson's
will, the only president of the Clemson
College trustees, has written: ^ur

Carolina is as much indebted for

Convention unardinousiy adopted a re- '<!r
solution requesting the trustees of the
South Carolina College to have their a"

of lectures on agricultural chemistry MK
and the principals of geology, "provided
that they do not interfere with

TIIKN AND NOW.
The Farmers' Institute season of
L>:t has ended. Thirty county Intu?es
have liecn held in different
stlous of the State, from Dickens to
uway. The attendance aggregated
:ht thousand.
The "round-up"?the State Instile
at Clemson College- with its two
Dusand people, was a record breaker
the State and in the Union,
it is hoped and believed the apraching
State Fair will be the most
cessful ever held.
To-day seems, Mr Editor, a tit time
read the page of the State's history
it tells of the great Agricultural
nveution of two generations ago.

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.

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.

but she had told several of her friend
