WINNSBORO, a. C. TURSDAY, DR0j3BXjC a, j XSVS, MR MEAYS DAYS, EDITo. JO. 8. REYIOLDS, ASOOAT2 EDITOR. THE Fxru Congressional District is higlily honored. Both her candi. dates get seats; Tillman In the House, and Smalls in the penitentiary. Tim POLICE and detectives have about ciphered the problem down to this-whether Charlie Ross stole the Stewart remains or the Stewart re mains stole Charlie Ross. THE NEW YORK World of a recent date contains the following startling head line, "A violent death at 104-A life terminated by a baker's wagon that had laughed at the shock of Time." THE SuPnEME COURT has dismissed the appeals of Cardozo and Smalls; and the former must go to jail, the latter to the penitentiary. Better late thati never. We presume that the Governor has no intention of pardon ing either of them. Any such mis placed clemency would raise a gener al cry of indignation. Sinalls ought to be working in the convicts' gang on the Greouwood and Augusta rail road by January. A Live Princess in Canada. The Marquis of Lorne, who is best known as being Queen Victoria's son in-law, has arrived in Canada, where he assumes the Governor-Generalship of the Dominion. The Princess Louise, who accompanied him, proved herself to be no better than common people after all, for she was dreadfully sea sick during the whole voyage. The arrival of a real princess in Canada was a great event. The pro gress of the Marquis and his wife was a continued ovation. Louise's broth er, the Duke of Edinburg, had been sent over previously to receive his sister. The appointment of Lorne to Ca'hada Is regarded another niaster stroke of Beaconsfield. The Marquis occupied an anomolous position in England. He was below his wife in station, and could not even enter a ballroom through the same door. Other nobles sneered at his presump tion, and altogetlier he was a fish out of water. But in Canada he can carve out his own fortunes; while the Canadians will be stimulated to in creased loyalty by having the Queen's own daughter among them. The Marquis is said to be a fine young follow, and his auguries are auspi cious. The United States Senate. Gen. James Conner has declined the nomination for the United States Senate, made by the Greenville Enterpr'iue and Mountaineet., and ex presses his cnviction that Governor Hampton Is the man for the place. lie believes that the grand contest in 1880 wIll be in Congress, and lie thinks the South should send her wisest men there. General Conner expresses the views of many of those whoe look be yond the,borders of our own little State. South Carolina is but an out post. The line of battle extends from ocean to ocean. The South is all right. The North is to be convinced thlat the Democrats should be entrust ed with the government, anmd Congress is the place for the test. A few wild speechles or ultra motions would throw the fat into the fire and kindle the biggest kind of a flame. While South Carolina has other sons who would make good Senators (among them General Conner himself) Hamp.. ton will command more ready re cognition than any. We regret to lose hlim tx.om the executive chair. But we have no0 fear thlat his mantle will not fall on a worthy successor. We saw Goverpor Simpson clay after day in Columbia, at tile time when the Senate refused to recognize his authority; and 'his coolness and digni ty in tis embarrassing position showed tile stuff of whichl lie is made. l final assumpltion of authority in the Sena te, and his ruling in the case of the Senators from Abbeville, Edge field and3( LaurenIs, with his entire record, satisf'y us thlat he0 is equal to any emergency thlat may arise. If people do not wish Governor Hamp toll to go to the Senate let them say so; but noQ excuse can be found for arguinIg that lhe will leave the sceptre of~ St ate in icompetent hands, Thes Applef ot3iscord. Gen. Gary has introduced a bill in thle Senate to repeal tile public debt clompronmise anid to abolish the special court fappointed to inlquire into the legal aspect of tile Consolidation bonds, It is too early to throw .the apple of dis'coid into the Legislature. Many of tile membedg are new e, and they should la4e time )deeome #0eustomed to thei dwIg0s before being plunged in media* res. If the ..queO.-. tlon t1" b6 dA1f'dilA&Ased" this i not the proper time. The most em barrassing point in the whole matter is whether the bonds are a contract. If so, payment of them cannot be dodged any more successfully than the redemption of bills of the Bank of the State. The special court was ap pointed for the express purpose of satisfying doubts as t6 the legal re sponsibility of the State. The court has sat. Several thousand dollars of expenses have been incurred. The question has been fully argued. - What wisdom can there be in abolishing the court after all the work has been done, and a decision is near at hand? Let all legal doubts be cleared away, and then if it be decided that the State has any option in the matter it will be time to consider the question of re pudiation. But the Democrats all over the United States are already suffering under the imputation of desiring to cheat public creditors, and It would make matters much worse if the South Carolina Legislature should repudiate three millions of dollars, and then have the courts decide them to be sacred contracts. The State's credit is not the best in the world now, but it would touch a deeper bottom in such an event. TnE NEws AND HERALD opposed the Consolidation bonds vigorously until it was convinced that they are con tracts; and it cannot again oppose them until they be decided to haye no legal binding force. It will* - stand firmly by the compromise of 1877, until, at least, the courts come to its relief. Until that Ime the Legislature, also, had better let the matter rest. The people wish to see that body adjourn speedily, and ..they will be disappointed if another wrangle occurs over the debt. General Gary's bill should be defeated.
