which has since been uini"uhly ad-j1

when the case was called, because of j
the personal feelinjr exhibited by |

went to the t'ourt room prepared for |
a row. While Mr. .limes was ad- ,

ed in a passage of words, and Mr.
Johnstone denounced Jones usatt 4'in- |

oommenced and continued till the r

A delegation of iialtiuinre steam- '

tion seemed very much afraid that!1
Joseph A. Chapman, of Charleston,!*
might bo selected, and therefore tliev 1
begged the President not to on out- ! I
side of Baltimore for the appointee. )
They argued that Baltimore was en- 1
titled to the appointment, because j
there is more business sit thsit port i
than sill the other j>orts in the district '
combined. The President, sifter
hesrino their statements, said he laid 1
twice nominated Mr. Curran and the |
Senate had failed to act upon his) s
nomination, and therefore lie was not i
disposed to annoy the Senate any I
further with Mr. Curran. lie prom-ji
iseed, however, to give their petition
and their statements due considers-ji
tion before making the- appointment.
The delegation also called upon (Jovernor
Thompson, who assured them
that he could only act in this matter
when so instructed by 'lie President.)
It is understood that Senator (.iorman, I
who has twice prevented action by
the Senate on Cumin's nomination,
lias informed the President that he
does not care who is chosen provided
it is not Curran. It is thought,
therefore, that to prevent further controversy
over this appointment the
President will make a selection from
Virginia or South Carolina. \V. II.
Woody, of Richmond, has filed an
application, but Mr. Chapman lias
not. Formal applications and numerously
signed petitions have, up to

Carlisle anil tho Treasury.
\
\\ AsiilMiTo.N, March 21. The
Treasury department was offered to
mid pressed upon Mr. John (J. Carl
isie, hut he declined to accept.
Carlisle's friends are free to sav ho
refused the Treasury from being unwilling
to act as a head clerk for a
chief who has the lmhit of interfering
in all the departments, of directum
appointments to office, ami .over
slit uniting recommendations of their
respective heads. After Mr. Man-I
ning's experience, no public man
man with a future in politics would
accept this responsibility, and be
trammelled as ho was by a President
who grasps at all Kxecutive power.
The fate that awaited Mr. Carlisle,
had ho squarely submitted his fortunes
to the control and management
of Mr. Cleveland, did not escape the
observation of the experienced gentleman
from Kentucky. Mr. Manning
has emerged from the Cabinet
with more reputation than he carried
into it but sit a cost which leaves him
stricken with almost hopeless malady.
The others have lost whatever
political standing they may have had,
and will cease to bo of further political
importance. That did not suit

Malaria however, is a Iniobear

It is now a well ascertained fact
that it is due to lack of proper drainage
of tlie soil, and that once the
swamp are drained malaria will
cease to exist there. IJut draining
the swamps is so prodigious a task
as to he almost as di scon rani no as
annual strnnules with chills and
fever. Notwithstanding the apparent
immensity of the undertukinn,
in these davs of transcontinental
railroads and inter-oceanic

rannc of possiiiilit y, and even probability.
that it will lie accomplished,
and, in<I I, -<>ioc very important
mid extensive enterprises in this
lireetion have already been entered
upon. North t'arolma has uudcrlaken
the drainage of the irreat
swamps alone* her eastern coast as a
work of State improvement and has
hundreds of convicts employed in
that enterprise. Th I )iston Land

The IJoruoloy <'ounty Land and j

cially planned with a view to avoiding
the obstacles above enumerated
as heretofore encountered by enterprises
with the same object in

subscribed before organization is
oiny $10,000, while it can be afterwards
ineVeftsed to $100,(KH). The
price of single shares is only $f>0,
with $10 payable on organization

the promoter of the company, litis
been very successful in ^ottino

X k\v ^'oyk. March 10. The
whereabouts of Unfits Kirkland, the
confidential clerk and partner of
Walter K. Lawton, who a.iscnnded
Tuesday, tailing with him over half a
million dollars, are about as little
known as those of Lawton. Kirkland
has not heen at the otlice of the
Xavassa ('oifipany for two days, and
the same storv is told at the otlice of
the Aimnonilite and Oil t'ompuny, of
which he was also a partner with
Lawton. The supposition is that
he has ?rone away, as he went to the
depot with Lawton and then took
out attachments aoainst Lawton's
property, which he himself had a
share in
The Sheriff is still in possession of
Lawton's i tread way oHieo, and what
hooks are left are still untouched in
the safe. The creditors have not
yet been called together, nor lies
any attempt been made to settle
with them. Unites, of the I )el Azotin
Company, tlx1 principal stock of
which was owned by Lawton, said
the creditors would not suffer much,
as the attachments he had obtained
would be used for the benefit of the
creditors in camera I. The property
at Liltleherry, X. .L, worth about
4010,000, a id 011 the Island of Xavassa
would also be attached.
No estimate of liabilities can be
made, as Lawton's firm had papers
scattered all over the country. The
principal loss, it is believed, will fall
| 011 the batiks.
Abraham Kliun of No. 201 Hroadj
way, who has obtained some *225,1000
worth of attachments against the
j estate of Lawton, said to-day that
' tho missing man a saFo ha*l noon
opened and found to contain not a
dollar that could l>o apnlied to a
settlement of Lawton s personal
! ostato. The only things found in
tho safe were tho hooks of tho various
companies in which he was interested.
Tho safe opening also
showed that Lawton had totally destroyed,
not only his check hooks,
hut his cash hook, ledger and office
tiles, so thiit the hist hope of creditors
clung to for unravelling the
man's mysterious actions is gone.

^LTIk* revelations made by Mr.

lvalue of cotton sevd oil have attractj

portant product, and it is not impro* ,
liable that its inanufactiire and consumption
will !>o speedily doubled in
consequence.
A few newspapers at the North,
indeed, continue to spea'; of the oil
as an adulterant of lard, and t ? demand
legislation to prevent tin ,
mixture being offered for sal".
Others, however, which are better
informed, have adopted the sugge-- '

lard, as beitio tlio purer and more
wholesome article of the two, as'
it Ulldoilhtedl \ is. TllCfO is MO Ijll'Stioii
that natch of tin; lard that is i
consumed in the countr\ is unlit for ;
use, and that the only cletin element
th.tt enters into its compositions is j
the cotton seed oil. \S hen it liecomes
jronerally known, therefore,
tiiat the oil I?y itself is cheaper and
cleaner and lietter in cverx way
than any mixture that can lie made
with it, or even than the purest lard,
it will take the place of lard altogether,
and the day is not far distant
when the substitution will iic effected

far superior to lard for in ist purpose
of cooking, especially in tincases
of bread, fish ami meats. It is
clteap because it is abundant, but
it is altogether cleaner and more
healthful than lard, and, if judeed
by the standard of merit, would be
much more e.\pensive."

that product debased and transforine<l

Cotton seed oil is freely used under
