Dewey is a man of surprises. lie surprised the Spanish in Manilla Bay and also surprised our people by entering New York Bay when not expected. The Dewey celebration in Washington. while not so magnificent as mat, 01 rsew \ork, was equally gracious. The Admiral is to be congratulated that the rush is over and that he can now take a rest. In the October death list of the Knights of Honor, we notice that there are eight from this state. This means sixteen thousand dollars to the families thus deprived of their head. Have you made any provision of the kind for those dependent upon you? Tilk South Carolina delegation to the Dewey celebration, like Dewey arrived ahead of time. They were well received and cheered at several points on their way to their quarters. The delegation numbered ubout 350 and is said to be the largest State delegation South of New York. ? In the Dewey parade last Friday, Sampson rode in the ninth carriage and Schley in the thirty-sixth carriage, but the pi -pie were aware when the hero of Santiago appeared ard cheered the i'gh< man. The occupant of the thirty '. t h carriage was the next man of importance in the procession Each dav looks mnro wnvliUn in the Transvaal and the promise d bloodshed is not far ofT. A conflict is inevitable and a clash imminent. The consequence of war is terrible, and we shall hope that a speedy adjustment of the South-African difTl- j culties may be brought about soon. The Iloers are ready to fight, and the 'English government will take no step backward. The consequence is war. There are a lot of people who wish to take the great admiral from his present position and make a president of him. It is not necessary, in order to bo great to be president, and we are inclined to the il-i r\ ? <j|jiiiiuii mm, i;ewey nas rio special hankering after the job. Very few , men have had the grace to decline the offer of the presidency, and we don't know anything of the power of Admirial Dewey's resistance. Tiik South Carolina delegation to the Dewey celebration had a royal time in New York, being accorded marked distinction at many points. Our men carried themselves like sol diers should, and won many plaudets. It was a great gathering. The greatest that has over met' in this country to honor any single man and the lesson should be productive of good. While it emphasizes to us. how sweet a boon is lib erty, it should impress us with grave consideration respecting all people who are endeavoring to se-l cure the same benefits.

Wilie Jones. It is un ler.stood that the two other bondsmen, Messrs. Seott Hope and L\ II 11 aliiWanver, will pay tlv? ?,'jaontntT"~Tdelay. This will cover the amount which the | State is out with the exception of , $2,<>00, which is represented by one , of the Kagsdalo notes, which is eon- ( si do ltd worthless. Tlie State holds | the note, it having been taken up , with the check of J. U. Watson for '] rent. L The total amount which it is char l/ed ill the ill vnsl iimt.imr report Col. Neal disposed of is ovor [ $11,000, but the bank which cashed , the worthless notes and other par-. j ties will lose that. ( The action of the bondsmen in t paying the amount Col. Neal was1, found short will not help him in the, | criminal prosecution which is to be ! r brought against him, but on the other hand it makes the case again-t him all the stronger, as the pay meat bv his bondsmen is an ac- 1 1<nowledgement of his malfeasance,'! for which t hey are held responsible I j by the terms of the bond. Hut by , paying the amount of $2,812.11, the t bondsmen will undoubtedly avoid , being sued, and if suit were brought ^ and judgment obtained against them ' it would be for the full amount of the bond, $20,000 Whether judg,,,.,..1 /./? > 1 1 I k. i ' ' ....

It is eon ' siderod pretty hard on the throe ?ien- ' tlomon to have to pay for the hat ' racks, bookcases, tables 'and bed- (> steads which ot her people are usin^, especially since the bondsmen did ' not oet even a brickbat out of the ' Noal emporium.
