WiLsos, chair. t .man of the comiuttee on ways and minas in the -recent Congrets, has written a letter to the New York World in which be says: "This Con grees has accomplished a number of useful thing. It has repealed the pur chasing clause of the Sherman Act and it has pasied a tariff reform bill. The value of these accomplishments can not be overe-timated. By repealing the ailver purchise ca-ise of :he Sher man law this Congre-s ha4 lAidl the foundatian for a so-0id financial ys tem. 'By enrcti:g a tariff reform bill this Conigress has carried out Demo cratic pledges. The House particn larly acqnitted itself well in this par ticular, The i-npotence of Cingreas in dealing with financial legislatiois during the session just ended was due to the fact that under universal suf frage Congress represented the people of the-country. Congress is the mir ror of the people's views. The people have not made up their minds on the financial question, and Congress mir rors the diferent shades of belief and opinion. But a campaign of educa tion has been began." * A GENTLEMAN remarked in our pres ence recently that he believed Georgia - was the most progressive and prosper *one of the Southern States. Perusal of the following clipping from the * A ~ willgie an idea -inent men of other States are'ptrsu ing populistic vagaries as the remedy --for all our ills the Georgia statesmen are advertising the advantages of their Sttand showing why immigration should come to her. What they say of Georgia can be said of South Carolina. Who have we in Washington to say a -good word for us? or who has done *so? Here is what the Georgians say: 'The last number of the Ne w York Independent is a most entertsininsg and instructive issn"'. It is devoted to the *South and its resources, and is full of1 special articles of great merit prepared - for this number by leading Southerna *mren. "A General Southern Outlook" -is the title of Secretary of the Navy -Herbert's article, which Is given the I -place of honor, and Secretary of the< Interior Hoke Smith folows with an 4 article on the Cotton States Exposition.i Senator Walsh oomes next iu ith "ALgri - culture in tbe South," and "Labor in -the South" is the subject of Senator r Pasco's contribution. Congressman f Black - has an article on Georgia, and t these are supplemented by many others f of .cot responding interest. a Dealing with the question of immi- t gration to the South Secretary Herbert e says: "Thei'e is really no prejudice ii ehisting on the part vf Southern peo- nt ple toward immigration: from the r; North. This company of Ge.rmanss p that came down to Alabama and es- p tablished the colony of Cullmian, came t< from the Northwest. The great mis a: fortune with us has beens that immi- ti gration generally, travel on isiothermsal h; lnes, and immigrants who come from ti Germany, Sweden, Norway and the al United Kingdom, seem to leave the ;f Old World with the idea that in the itl Southern States of Amnerica the climate rt is too hot, and that it i*j sickly there; o1 and so they first gp on.t West. Statis- it tics show Alabama to be one of thie healthiest States in the Vision. The n< imm'gration we have been getting in bi the South has been from people who qi hamatried the lNorthwest and who, be- til ing comparatively near to us, have had es some opportunmty of learning what the cc ennditions in the South really are." of Secretary IHerbert is betrayed into b: .error by perhaps the same restoning ti< that animates the German imzmigrants ed .themselves. "The great misforune be with us has been" not, as the Secretary ur eaye, "that these immigranits travel on sih isothermal linies," but that they have la net done so. -They have followed U pretty well the tines of latitude, but in not of temperature. The Emigrant, a of German publication which has turned fe its attention co the South for the past St six months, has published some ver, sti valuable comparative tab.les '.r tens- vil * perature, showing that in the South r:: cal States the German farmer won'd fi:,d an the same climate he left ins the Fadt r by land, and that he makes a great ik upJ take in imagining that the isothermal pri lines run into the Northwest. Ther wI he encounters a climate to, which he is~ thi not accustomed, while if he came to las Georgia, the Carolinas or Alabama liw ali would mnd that he was trave:ing~ on~ wi isothermal lines, and would be ins a co' land where prosperity waits on indu.- nso try. the Senator Walsh, in his article on agri. thi culture, s-ives some valuable statistics, A t followed by timely comment, and i is mni, well enough to link it here with what PCI Secretary Herbert has said. With the giv information about the S-uthern e I- for mate, and the followinig suiggestion jTh from Sens~t ,r Walsh about the chara,- ali] i edition of the Independ'ent oueht to a pretty good immigration doca .nt. Senator Walsh says What tJhe South needs are small me,.s to engage in diversified a!ri Itural pur.uits. I do not believe it there is any country on the bitable globe, climate or location nsidered. that will make as good ems as the South will to industrions rmers. It may be affirmed that there, nothing that section of our countr% ill not produce except, possibly, cof e. In the State of Georgia they pro ice all the cereals-wheat, rye, eats. 6rley, corn-vegetables of every de ription, while cotton grows every here. In my opinion, the South will never come financially independent until e raises her own breadstuffs and akes cotton a secondary or surplus op. W'hat I mean is, that the first maideration should be the cultifation the sAil for hotne supplies. If, for e next five years the Sontu should )tain her bread and meat from within r own tet ritory and raised no more tan 6,000,000 bales of cotton, in that ort period of time she would become msolutely prosperous and financially idependent. THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVEX TION. Mr. Editor: Feeling that the [me has arrived in South Carolina rhen men of independent minds had eased to exert influence because most f our people desired to hear from hose only who would cater to their hims and prejudices, I had determ ned to keep my mouth shut, and let hings rock along for :ho present at east. Many letters have been written ne from outside, and numerous in iuiries from within save been ad Iressed to me asking my views upon he situation and what I thought best :o be done in the constitutional con rention matter. The quickest way of eaching them, I find myself in print. That the convention will be called is L foregone conclusion. This body is to frame a constitution which will tri probably last for an hundred years, ho ind will have specific bearing for weal ,,, or ealth )r woe upon every man, woman and Dhild in the State. It will not be de- th iied then that its action should be lo wise, and considerate of each separate 4 interest throughout our borders, and that all shades of opinion should be w] represented in its coucils. Ilow shall in this representation be secured? I- am n free to confess that with this conven- e1 tion in the hands of the conservatives- so and nothing is easier than the capture th of it by them-influenced by the high 9C co partisan party feeling now existing, and smarting under injuries supposed ca or real, laws might result which would fig fot meet the views of the j,.gle upon ti that second sober thought which will r inevitably insue ore long. I will be equally frank and say with a majority th4 of Tillmanites the same result would h follow and the effect would be equally disastrous to us all. To guard against re 3,is I see but one plansis, 0 ill in manites and 80 Antis. With this body 'Y so con'tituted there would be such ~" mental attrition and exchange of views 6 as would nece-sarily insure conserva- pt tive action generally, and special re- " gard for the rights and interest of all. u Besides it leaves out that much dread- If sd and over-rated issue of appealing th a the negro vote, for he has said in -e, is convention recently and I believe WI ;ruthfully, that he is wil ing to submit f : the arbitrament of white men who rill not discriminate injuriously against uim. There seems to be a disposition ipont the part of many of the big Ikes ; give us equal representation pro rided we promise like good boys to do heir bidding. I have this to say, no nan can get my vote who goes there 0 carry out a compact with Tiliman r any other one man or ring. Who ver goes there on any such agrecment, u my opinion, compromises his man ood and lowers the standard of states nanship erected by those who have epresented us in such bodies hereto ore. It is an insult even to ask him o pledge himself to white -supremacy, or none know better than those ex ting the pledge, the magnitude of he lie they utter when they assert or yen intimate, that the Straightouts eire or intend it, for every sensible an knows full well that the cry was ised by those in ofiice to keeop our cople distracted and themselves in osition.

When we see managers defying te laws of the land, and with their mds on the Rlihle deliberately perjure eir souls a~nd then b:>ast and laugh it as a good joke, for one I say, the ter elections we have the bettor for L country. It could be easily ar binged in convention by the Straight ts, and by primary for the TIll anites, if they prefer. But of one thing let us be sure, send >milk sops, nor metn deficient in tkbone A word or two about alified voting.
