' The great strugglo over- the tariff ended last week in a triumph for tho Domocruiic Senators who hold out against freo sugar, iron, coal and barbed wire. They dlotated the terms to tho House, which recedod from its position on tho ground that tho Senate bill was better than to do without any legislation on the tariff, und under tho guidance of Speaker Crisp and Chair man Wilson, tho Democratic Ropro sentatlvos agrood to accopt tho Senate bill, which onded tho light vory quickly. The Houso coupled with its agree ment the introduction and pussago of soparato bills to secure freo sugar, free coal, free iron oro and froo barbed wire, but none of theso measures will stand tho ghost of a chance to pass tho Seuato. They woro practically killed when sept to the Sonato, und the Houso *^**-r>nry intended to make a record before the country as being squarely in favor of adhoring to tho plodgos of tho Dem ocrats along this lino, plucing tho re sponsibility for failuro upon tho Demo cratic Senators who rofusod to carry out those pledges. Washington, Aug. 14.?There was something of a flurry about tho Senuto to-day during tho earlier hours of tho session whon tho four soparato tariff bills came over from tho House, for it was feared that in somo way, action might be forced und* a showing of hands compollod to bo mado. Especi ally was this truo of tho bill to put su Sar on tho froo list. Thoro appears, owover, to bo no hope for any of these bills to become laws, us thoro is a dis position on tho part of tho leadors to smother thorn in committee The su gar bill, of course, possosses tho most noHi-loal significance and It cuunot bo >>?wcloubted, but that thoro are vory many Democrats who would liko tho op portunity to voto upon tho question of froo sugar as an Indopondent proposi tion. Tho Republicans can bo depended upon to do all thoy can to prevent tho Democrats from carving out any de sire they may havo In this direction, and thoy base their intention upon tho statement that it would bo bad poli ties. Ono of tho loaders said to-night that the Republicans mado froo sugar and gavo tho growors a bounty, and that the Democrats repealed that law. Now tho Domocrats wantod tho Re publicans to assist them in putting su 6ar back on tho free list without tho ouuty. This tho Republicans will not do. It is beliovod that all these bills will be sent to the finance committoo without much trouble, this boing the usual course. Should thoro be any of fort on tho part of those anxious for free sugar to attempt to prevent this and secure immediate action, as Mr. Vest suggested to-day, thon tho bills will bo called up ono at a tlmo and made tho basis for tho formation of another new tariff bill. Hill began that work to-day whon ho gave notice of an amendment providing for the re peal of the income tax. Stowart is roudy to lay beforo tho Senate a froo coinago umondment for each of tho independent bills. Allen will offer as an amendment tho PelYor tariff bill, and Aldrich will offor an amendment that repouls tho enacting clause of tho bill to which tho Houso agreed yesterday. A most determined fight will bo commenced should thoro be any disposition shown to treat theso independent measures with any degree oiseriousnosu. In view of tho anxiety of members of Congress to get away and securo the ^??cJOHe of ail business, it does not appear how a quorum can be maintained to, keep up this sort of thing, for tho Re publicans would insist that tho Demo crats provido tho quorum with which the Sonato should do business. Al ready Senators are preparing to loavo tho city, Toller and Dixon having taken their departure. In the Houso a num ber of members havo gono and tho pre diction is mado in tho Senate by both Democrats and Kepublicans that the end of this week will find the Sonato wlfhout a quorum. Tho only thing that now koops the Senate is the sundry civil bill, and tho tariff bill, which will roach the Presi dent to-morrow, with theso two things f out of tho way thoro would be no rou I son why an adjournment should not fol? ? low. Senators do not place, much faith In the story that tho Houso will rofuse to adjourn until tho Sonato acts upon the bills montioned, but as soon us mat tors now attracting the attention of tho Senate aro out of tho way, the House will bo put to tho tost by tho passing on tho part of tho Sonato of a joint resolution providing for a tlmo for ad j'our union t sine dlo. Any attempt to frustrate an adjournment moans the in auguration of a porlod of flllbustoriug and the consumption of tlmo by tho Sonate with tho inovitablo result that nothing will he accomplished. Washington, Aug. 15.?During tho routino morning businoss, tho chief clerk of tho Houso dolivorod a mes sage from tho Houso notifying tho Sen ate of tho dischargo of tho Houso eon foroos on the tariff bill, and of tho fact that tho House had rocoded from its disagreement to tho Senate amend ments, and further that ho (the clerk ) had boon directed to present to tho Senate tho signaturo of its President, tho onrollod tariff bill. Within a fow minutes afterwards tho Vlco Presldont announced that ho had signed tho tariff bill. Quay gavo notice that ho would offor as an amendment to the four bills put ting Sugar, coul, iron oro and barbed wire on tho froo list, tho MoKinlev tariff bill. Butler offered u resolution, which was referred, instructing tho commit too on inter-State commorco to Inquire and report as to tho frolght and pas senger ohargos differential, etc., of the Sou thorn Steamship and Railway As sociation. At the request of Harris, ouch of tho four Bouse hilIs as to sugar, coal, iron ore and barbod wiro, was taken up and roooivod its socond roading. This for mality having boon accomplished, Har ris roso and said : I doom it my duty to submit to the Sonato a communica tion from tho Socrotary of tho Treas ' ury roooived this morning. Tho lottor -was road from tho clerk's dosk. B?rry moved, as soon as tho reading was complotod, that tho Sonato pro ceed at onco to tho consideration of the froo sugar bill. Harris : " I fool it my duty to say a word and to make n motion to rofor ' those bills to tho financo committoo. Whllo I am heartily in favor of freo sugar, raw and refined, and havo cer tainly no obiootions to putting tho oth er artlclos dealt with by tho other bills on the freo list, still, In vlow of tho communication iust road from tho Soc rotary of tho Treasury and tho strong probability (If not tho absolute cer tainty) that If theso bids shall boeomo law, we will havo during tho current -?oar a deficiency in tho Treasury of ?21>,000,000 or *30,000,000, I fool it my duty to move to refer each of these '.'ills to the finance committee in order that tho committee may. in dealing with those bills, so deal with them as to provide against that inevitable de ficiency. I do not think that Congress can afford to adjourn withoutsuch pro vision as will otTectuall/ guard against such deficiency ; and for that reason, and that reason only, I move that these bills be referred to tho committee on finance." Speeches against a reference and in favor of the House bill were made by B?rry, Vest and Mills. Vest's speocn was made in the exeeutton of his prom ise to turn the calcium light on tho history of tho bill in tho finance com mittee, the Democratic caucus and tho conference committoe. As us ml, ho was earnest and Impassioned, and thoro was no lack of frankness or plain sneaking- in his remarks. His allu sions to tho President wore espoclally ontertainlng to Senators and to tho galleries. The President found a dofonder in Vilas, and tho action of tho Demo cratic party in Congress in passing tho bill was supported and justified by Pal mer. Tho day's proceedings woro closod with a highly amusing sceno between Chandler and Harris, in which Chand ler borrowed tho words, tono and man ner of Harris on uovoral occasions during tho debate of tho tariff bill-?to tho offeot that tho day had boon wast ed in useless discussion, and that tho country was woary of such dobates and was demanding immediate action. Notlco of an amendment to a f reo su gar bill was given by Jones of Arkan sas, imposing a duty of 30 per cent, ad valorom on all sugars. Without any action whatovor on tho bill, tho Sonate at 5.05 p. m. adjournod. Washington, Aug. 16.?Prosidont Clovoland loft tho city early.thls morn ing. Private Secretary Thurber raakos public tho following statement in re gard to tho President's departuro : " Tho Prosidont loft this morning for a fow days' abseneo undor tho ad vico of his physician, in tho hope of shaking off an attack of malaria from which ho has beon suffering for sovor al days. Yostorday, tho attack culmi nated In a fovor which was undor con trol this morning. Dr. O'Reilly, his physician, expressed no doubt that a fow days of salt air will rccuporato tho President sufficiently to renew his offi cial dutios, and ho will roturn to Washington by tho middle of noxt week. Ho has gone to Gray Gables, and Is aecompaniod by Dr. O'Reilly." Tho President has novor fully re covered from an attack of malaria which caused him to raako two trips in tho light house tondor down thoCnosa poako Bay and outsido tho capes. Anxioty over tho tariff situation is supposed to havo aggravatod tho in disposition, and When the matter was ended by tho action of tho Houso in passing tho tariff bill, -the relaxation camo and made a chango of air neces sary. President Clovoland took no action upon tho tariff bill boforo his depart ure beyond sonding it to tho Secretary of tho Treasury for a report, as is cus tomary with all rovonuo hills It will bo necessary for tho Prosi dont to ho back in Washington by Tuesday noxt. Tho resolution continu ing appropriations expires Monday, but tho sundry civil bill has not boon signod and all appropriations carried by it for last year will ceaso Monday, unless tho Prcsidont returns and gives tho bill for the current year his ap proval. Tho rivor and harbor bill also awaits tho action of the President, and there is much speculation as to whether ho will approve it or not. Many of tho auproprlatlons carried by it will ceaso if it is not approved by Tuesday. SENATOR VEST GETS ANGRY. HK REVIEWS THE ItECENT TAIt No Other Tai ill Bill Could Have I'assed the senate and the Demo cratic Senators Have Been Out rageously Treated. Washington, Aug. 15.?In opposing Senator Harris' motion to re for tho frco sugar and other bills to tho com mitteo on finance Senator Vest said that ho had not the slightest doubt that if tho bills woro roforred to tho committee, of which ho was acting as temporary chairman, that it would moan tho death of tho bills. It was woll known that tho committee was now politically a tlo, and with the prospect of tho disappearance of a quorum in a fow days nothing could bo dono with tho bills at this session. Ho roforred indignantly to Mr. Cleveland's letter in support of the Houso bill, and ranged alongside of it tho lottor of Secretary Carlisle pre sented to-day, which ho declared proved conclusively that tho Houso bill would, if enacted, havo caused a doficieney of $30,000,000. That letter, ho said, with groat display of fooling, vindicated tho position of tho Senate. Ho denounced tho solf-constltuted critics of tho press and tho demagogues who had sought to pull down mon in high plaeos, who had assailed tho Sonato and tho Sonato bill. Tho Sonate had boon mado tho scapegoat. He proceeded with great! indigna tion to doscrlbo tho position'In which ho had boon'placed during tho last Hvo mdnths. Ho had not au onemy in tho world, ho doclarod, dramatically, whom ho would placo in tho position ho had occupied to bo critloisod, de nounced, blackmailod and driven in ordor to pass a bill for tho relief of tho country that was distorted by tho, views of those who looked at tho si t na tion from thoir own selfish standpoints. Tho rules of tho Sonuto woro responsi ble, ho said. " No wondor," said he, with uplifted hand, " that tho public doclares the Sonato lags superfluous on tho stage when wo sit horo day aftor day while almanacs, statistics, Ovon novels, aro road to us undor our rules and we aro poworloss to help oursolvos. Thor? was reason why tho peoplo should turn on us. Lot us," ho continued, " look at tho rock around which tho cross curronts and eddies of discussion havo boiled, and scothod. In one section of tho country lay Louisiana, with its sugar plantations, domanding a rovonuo tariff on sugar. I would rather havo given thom protection than any other class of producers in tho domain of tho United States. At tho other ond of tho United States was that groat monopoly, tho Sugar Trust, taking toll from ovory broakfast table. With $75,000,000 of watered stocks it paid 7 per cent, dividond on half Its stock and 12 per cont. on tho other half, and paid It quarterly. It was aggrossive, defiant, ayo, dominant. Between thoso two Jay tho Interest of tho pooplo, tho consumers. Tho Wilson bill as roportod to tho Houso from tho connnlttoo containod a duty and bounty. When it was In the Houso froo sugar was inserted. Tho finance coinmltteo nroparod a b.U which gavo no differoi. .nf bonolit to tho trust. And yet,"' said Senator Vost, with bittorness, " thoy on 11 ns tho croaturos of tho SRugar Trust." Tho Senator paused for a momont, and thon with Intonso oarncstnoes added: "Liars, slandorers, infamous llbollors." Ho proceeded to denounce tho llos which had boon hcapod on thoso who had fought agaipst this trust and yot had boon designated its crcaturos. " And when tho financo committoo had com pleted Its bill," continued Sonator vest, it was taken out of our hands boforo a Domoeratlo caucus without our knowlcogo or consont. If I mis state tho results lot Senators rlso in thoir soats and point it out. At tho ond of throo days of miserable wrang ling undor recrimination o woro turned out and told to prepare a bill which would command the support of forty-throo Senators) We thoroupon I IFF CONTEST. set ourselves to that miserable task." Senator Vest said that when the conferees gave their first attention to tikis Medusa-headed monster, the Sugar Trust, after much discussion, a com promise -uigar schedule had boeu agreed to, giving 40 per cent on the . saccharine strength in the Irunoitcd artlolesand l:f> differential. " Again." declared Senator Vest, ' we aro us sallod. Wo were hounded with tho statement that the Senate was for sale to tho Sugar Trust. We wore vlrUled by vile cartoons, editorials and lying corrospondonts." Senator Vost suited his action to his words and .mowed the intonso bitterness of his fooling. Ho continued to show that when tho sugar compro | miflo had been roaohed, thon it was learned that the Houso was not so dooply eoncernod in free sugar as it was in free ccal and iron. Senator Vest referred to the Pre sident's letter to Mr. Wilson and to the consequent ehango of issue from sugar to coal and iron. Ho said ho hud no light with tho Exocutlvo. Ho disclaimed being in tho cabal agaitiBt tho President as ohargod by the Sonator from Now York (Hill.) If it were necessary for him to retract one word of what ho had said to remain in public life ho would not do it. For tho President to como before tho pub lie and denounce tho bill, tho provi sions of which ho know in evory detail, was a gross Injustice to thoso who had labored and made much more saorlfico than ho. Ho. thon described tiro pro position made to the I louse conferees by the Sonate. If the sugar schedule should stand tbo Sonate had offered tho House olthor, froe coal or free iron. In tho compromise that seomed necossary tho dllloroncos woro split. Tho Houso oxprossod groat gratifica tion. After two hours of conferouco tho Houso couforoos came back and said they would toko froe iron oro. Tho conferees thon adjourned with tho statement from the Senate con forces that it would bo dangerous to make reductions on othor schedules, metal, woollon, etc. Tho next day the Mouse conferees came, back and said they would tako froo coal. Wo ropliod : " Gontlomon, tako olthor. Wo can bo happy with olthor, with t'othor dear charmers away." [Laugh ter.] Continuing Senator Vost said : "Tho chairman of tho Houso eonforeos thon said It was his duty to insist that all tho schedules should be taken up. They woro warnod of tho result. Tho troublo with tho Houso conferees throughout was that they Insisted that t hoy knew moro of tho situation in tho Sonato than wo did. They constantly Insisted that we should mako tho changes they wanted and take tho bill back to tho Sonato. Whilo this dis cussion in conforonco was going on tho Sonator from Now York eamo into tho Sonato last Friday and offorod his re solution, on whieh thoro was a tio vote. That voto was decisive ; it moro than anything olso determined tho situation bore. Men said the question horo was botweon tho Wilson bill and tho Sonato bill. That statement, was as false as the assertion that t here was a Democratic Senate. On tho question of tarilT reform it novor was and never can bo a Democratic Sonato as at pres ent constituted. Tho question was botweon tho Sonato bill and tho Mc Kinloylaw. Thoro tho cholco was to bo mado, and ovoryono conversant with tho situation so understood it. " Mr. President, it is not pleasant over to indulgo in personalities, but my attontlon has been called recently to an infamous statement, coming from a generally reputable sourco, mado in tho public press to tho oficct that my action in regard to tho lottor of tho Prosident to Mr. Wilson in regard to tho bill had been dictated by a fooling of rovongo against his Excellouoy bocaugo ho had ignorod mo in regard to tho patronage of my State. Tho Sonator from New York (Hill) was kind enough in concluding his spooch, when ho played tho rolo of Marc Antony, and whon some pooplo suspected that ho would roully liked to havo played Marc Antony and como to bury Csssar and not to praise him, to say that after this classic grout* that had attacked our modern Cmsar lie know not what private grief I .might havo. Mr. President. I have no private grlof, but I wish to acknow ledge in tho most public manner my gratitude to the President for having rolioved mo from all responsibility in ' rogard to tho appointments in Missouri. Sir, if thoro Is anything in my public lifo*which has afforded mo any plea sure, real and substantial, it has been tho fact that tho Prcsldont in tho exorcise of his constitutional right, of which I do not complain, informed mo that ho no longer dosircd my ndvioo regarding Missouri patronage Not again during this Administration will I stand in a crowded anto room looking into tho anxious, haggard faces of ox pectant oflico-scokors. Not .again will I ho admitted into tho august prosonco. Nor will I watch tho shadows, partially producod by indignation, that Mow across tho Executive brow and fool my heart sink ns ouch shadow came and wont. Not again will I bo damnod at country postolfices, upon villagocorners us an Ingruto who has given no offices to his friends. Sir, woro it not for this tar ill' debate and this tariff dis cussion I would now indulgo in tho ocstacy of that woll-known hymn : 'Thon shall I hatho my woary soul In seas of endless rest, And not a wavo of troublo roll Across my peaeoful hroaet.' " I have nothing to complain of on the part of the President. I am roady to follow him now as tho old Scotch followed tho banner of Bruco whon ho fought for country and homo. I fight for no man. I fight for principle, my party and my country. Mon pass away like clouds from the oveuing sky, but principle must live forovor. Sir, whon any man living nccusos mo of personal motives in what I havo done in connection with this bill, but my connection with it is now ended, I Simply answer him US a Mann ion f^ Douglass: 1 l^ord Angus, thou has lied.'" J. HIONlMilX M'LANB. Death of a Man Once Prominent In South Carolina Politics. Mr. J. Hondrlx MoLuno died in Co lumbia on tho 14th inst. He was a Georgian by birth, apd wus forty-six yoars old at tbo time of his death. At an early ago ho movod to Fairflold County, whoro spont tho romuindor of his lifo until about ten yoars ago. In 187(5 Mr. McLano was an ardont Domocrat and took an notlvo part in tho Wado Hampton campaign of that year. Becoming disgruntled from some ea use or othor ho soon showed disaffection to tho Democratic partv, and bocamo theadvocato of Groonback ism and kindred doctrines. In 1882 ho was tho Groonback eundidato for Gov ernor, but was most ignominiously de feated by Governor Hugh S. ThompJ sou, tho Democratic nominoe. Mr. McLano was not allowed to - peak in several of tho counties of the Stato, and In Fairflold, his adopted county, the fooling was so groat against him that ho had to bo protootod from bodily harm by cool hoods from tho fury of tho mob. In 1884 ho started tho Reform Signal in Columbia to furthor his doctrinos. But his p i per soon camo to grief, and McLano loft tho Stato and wont to Massachusetts, whoro ho entorod TulTs Collogo and studiod for tho ministry. Ho was licensed to preach, but was prevented from doing so by bad hoalth.

A black-hearted traitor! You dare to toll mo that George 'Winthrop loves you ! Sou of canting, lying Ezra | Winthrop! By tho Eternal, I'll shoot hint on sight if he comos this sido !" While old John Bedoll was speaking ho tore and llung away a letter, reach ed for his long rifle on its pins abovo the chimney place, dashed its butt angrily to tho tloor, and poured powdor into his palm. " For noaven's morcy, father ! You would not! You could not! Tho war is over. It would be murder !" cried Ruth Bedell, sobbing. " Wouldn't I V" Ho poured tho pow dor in. " Yos, by gracious, quickor'n I'd kill a rattlesnake ?" He placed tho round bullot on tho little squaro of greasod rag at the muzzle of his rillo. "A rank traitor?bone and blood of those who drovo out loyal mon !"?ho crowded tho tight lead homo, dashed the ramrod into place, looked to tho lllut. "Rost there, old Surodoath? wako up for Georgo Winthrop !" and tho llorco old man roplaced riflo and powdor:horn on thoir pogs. Bedell's hatred for tho foes who had boaten down King Georgo's cause and imposed tho alternative of confiscation or tho oath of allegiance ou tho van quished, was considered ferocious, ovon by his brother Loy* 'ists of tho Niagara frontier. " Tho Squire kind of soos his boys' blood when tho sky's red," said they in explanation. But their Inforouce erred. Bedoll was so much an enthu siast that ho could almost roioico be causo his three stark sous had gained tho prize of death in battle. Ho was too bravo to hato tho fighting mon ho had so often confronted. But ho nb horrod tho politicians, especially tho iutimato civic onomlos on whom ho had poured scorn before tho armed struggle began. Moro than any ho hatod Ezra Win throp, tho lawyor, arch-revolutionist of thoir native town, who had novor usod a weapon but his tonguo. And now his Ruth, tho beloved and only child ho had loft to his oxilod old ago, had confessed her lovo for Ezra Wiu throp's son ! They had boon boy and firl, protty maiden and bright strip ing together, without tho Squiro sus pecting?he could not ovon now, eon cotvo cloarlv so wild a thing as thoir affection! Tho confession burned iu his hoart llko veritablo flro?a raging anguish of minglod loathing and love. He stood'now gazing at Ruth, dumbly ?his hands clenched, head somotimes mechanically quivering, angor, hate, lovo, griof, tumultuous in his soul. Ruth glanced up?hor father soomed about to spoak?sho bowod again, shuddering as though tho coming words might kill. Still there was siloneo?a long silonco. Bedoll stood motlonloss, poised, broathlug hard? tho silonco oppressed tho girl?each moment her torror increased?oxpec tant attention became sutloring that demanded his voice?and still was silonco?savo for tho dull roar of Nia gara that moro and moro pervaded tho air. Tho torture of waitiug for tho words?a curso against hor, sho fear ed?overwore Ruth's onduraneo. Sho looked up again suddonly, and John Bedoll saw in hers tho beloved oyes of his dead wife, shrinking with intoler able fear. Ho groanod heavily, Hung up his hands despairingly, ana strodo out toward tho river. How craftily smooth tho grocu Nia gara swoops toward tho plungo ho noath that perpetual white cloud abovo tho Falls ! From Bedell's cloarlng be low Navy Island ho could soo tho sway ing and rolling of tho mist, over rush ing up to expand and overhang. Tho tcrriblo stream had a profound fascina tion for him; with its racing eddies oatlng at tho shore: its long woods, visible through tho clear wator, trail ing close down to the bottom; Its inex orable, otornal, onward pouring. Be cause it was so mighty and so threat ening his stern soul rejoiced grimly in tho awful rlvor. To float, watching cracks and lodges of its Hat bottom rock drift quickly upward ; to bond his his oars only when white crests of the rapids yolled for his lifo; to win es eapo by sheer strength from points so low down that ho somotimes doubted but tho greedy forces had been toinpt ed too long ; to stako his life, watch ing tree tops for a sign that ho could yet save it, was tho droadful pastime by which Bedell sometimes quelled passionate promptings to rovongo his exilo. "Tho Falls is bound to got tho Squire somo day," said the banished settlers. But the Squire's skill' was eloan built as a pickorol, and his old arms iron strong. Now when ho had gono forth from'tho beloved child, who seemed to him so traitorous to his lovo and loyal ty, ho wont instinetivoly to spend his passion upon tho rlvor. Ruth Bodoll, gazing at tho loaded rifle, shuddered. Her filial lovo scom od to havo died with thoso threats. Her fears was doop, but sho had not told all. Georgo Winthrop himself, having made his way seerotly through tho forest from Lako Ontario, had given her his pwn letter asking leave from tho Squiro to visit his nowly mado cabin. From tho moment of ar rival hor lover had implorod her to Hy with him. But filial lovo was strong in Ruth to give hopo that her father would yield to tho stronger alTcction yot freshened in her heart. Bolioving their union might be pormittod. she had pledged horsolf to oscapo with hor lover if it woro forbidden. Now ho wattod by tho hickory wood for a sig nal to conceal himself or como for ward.

Kuthhuuled the Hag down a llttlo, thon ran it up to the masthead again. At that a tall young fellow came springing Into tho cleivrlng, jumping exultuntly over brush heaps mid tree trunks, his quouo wuggllng, ills eyes bright, glad under his threo-eoruerod hat. .loying that her father hud yield ed, ho ran forward till ho saw Ruth's tears.

Often ho could 8eo tho wide, smooth curve whoro tho green volume iirst lapses "ustly on a lazy slope, to shoulder up bolow a huge calm billow, before pitching into tho madness of waves whoso confusion of tossing and tortured crests hurries to tho abyos. Tho afternoon grew toward ovoning before he pulled Steadily homo, cruwling away from tho rourors against tho cruel grcon, watching the ominous cloud with somo such grim humor as if under observation by an overpowering but baflled onomy. Approaching his landing, a shout drew Bedell's glanco ashore to a group of mon excitodly gesticulating. They 8Coniod motioning him to watch tho American shore. Turning, ho saw u boat in midstream, whoro no craft then on the river, oxcopt his own skiff, could bo safe unless manned by soveral good rowers. Only two oars were tiashiug. Bedell could make out two liguros indistinctly. It was cloar they were doomed?though still a full milo abovo tho point whence ho had come, they were much further out than he when near tho rapids. Yet ono life might bo saved ! In stantly Bedell's bow turned outward, and ohcors Hung to him from shore. At that moment ho looked to his own landing-place, and saw that his larger boat was gone. Turning again, ho angrily recognized it, but kept right on?ho must try to roscuoovona thief. He wondered Kuth had not preventod tho thielt, but had no suspicion of tho truth. Always*he had refused to lot her go out upon tho river?mor tally fearing it for her. Thrusting his skill mightily forward ?often it glanced, half-whirled by up wholming an.! spreading spaces of water -tho old Loyalist's heart was quit of his pangs, and saw only with certainty ho must abandon ono human soul to death. By tho time that he could reach tho larger boat his would be too near tho rapids for escape with throo ! When Goorgo saw Bedell in pursuit, ho bent to his ash blades more strong ly, and Until trembling to remember her father's threats, urged her lover to speed. They feared tho pursuer only, quiet unconscious that they were in tue romoroless grasp of tho river. Ruth had so ofton noeu hor father far lower down than they hadyot drifted that she did not realize the truth, and Georgo, just arrived from a distant dis trict, was unaware of the long cataracts above the Falls. lie was also decoivod by the stroam's treacherous smoothness and, instead of half-upward, pulled straight across us if cor tain ly able to lund anywhere ho might touch tho American shoro. Bedoll looked over his shoulder often. When ho distinguished a wo man he put on moro force, but slacken ed soon?tho pull homo would tax his endurance, ho re fleeted. In some sort it was a relief to know that ono was a woman : ho had beon anticipating' troublo with two men equally bent on being saved. That tho man would abandon himself bravely, ho being brave, scarcely doubted. For awhilo ho thought of pulling with the woman to the American shore, moro easily to ho gained from tho point where the rescue must oc cur. But ho rejoctod the plan confi dent ho could win back, for ho had sworn never to set foot on that soil. Had it been possible to save both he would havo boon forced, despite his vow, but tho squire knew that was im no8siblo?throe would overload his boat beyond escape. Having carefully studied landmarks for his position. Bedell turned to l.uik again at tho doomed boat. At that glance a well-known ribbon caught his attention. Tho old man dropped his oars, confused with horror. "My God, my God, it's Ruth I" ho cried, and the whole truth came with anolhor look, for ho had not forgotten Georgo Win throp. "\our father stops, Kuth. Perhaps ho is in pain," suggested Georgo to the quaking girl. She looked back. "What can it bo?"sho orlod, iilial lovo returning overmaster!ngly. "Perhaps ho is only tired." Goorgo all'ectcd carelessness, his first thought being to secure his bride, and pulled hard away to got all advantage from Bodoll's stop. "Tired! Ho is in danger of tho falls, thon!" scrcamod Kuth. "Stop! Turn! Back to him!" Winthrop instantly prepared tooboy. "Yos darling," he said, "wo must not think of oursolvcs. We must go back to save him!" Yet his was a sore groan at turning: what duty ordered wus so hard he must give up his love for the sake of tho enemy! But while Winthrop was still pulling round the old Loyalist resumed rowing with a moro rapid stroke that soon brought him ulungsido. In thoso moments of waitirfg all Bo dell's life, his porsonal hotrods, his loves, his sorrows, had boon reviewed hefoi i his soul. Ho had seen again his s> is, tho slain in battle, in the pride 'f tholr young might; and the gentle eyes of Ruth had ploaded with him beneath his dead wife's brow. How poor soomcd hate how mean and p00r*seemed all but Ixive and loyalty. Yos, for ho had lookod through tho veil into tho oternal, too, and stood u trivial creature, before tho Almighty knowing his meuning. Whoroforore solution and doop poaco had como up on tho man. Thoy wonderod at his look. No wrath was there. Tho old oyea were calm and loving, a gontle smile llick ored ubout his lips. Ocly that ho was very pale, Ruth would havo boon whol ly glad for the happy change "Forgive, mo, fattier/' she cried, as m / ho laid a hand on thoir bout. 1M do. my child," ho answorod. "Come now without an Instaut dolay to me." '?Oh. father, If you would lot us bo happy!" cried Ruth, heart-torn by two loves. "Dear, you shall bo happy. J was wrong, child, 1 did not undorstand how you lovod him. Mut oome! You hosi tuto! Winthrop, my son, you aro In some danger. Into this boat instantly! Both of yon! Take the oars, Georgo. Kiss mo, dear, my Ruth, oneo moro. Good-bye, my little girl. Winthrop, be good to her. And may (Jod bless you both forovorl" As tho old soldier spoke ho stopped into the larger boat. Instantly releas ing the skill". Mis imperative gentle ness ha?I secured his objoct without loss of tinu!, and the boats were apart with Winthrop'? readiness to pull. "Now row! Mow for her life to yon der shore! Bow well up! Away! or the falls will have her." "Butyou!" orlod Winthrop, bending for bis Btroko. Yet ho did not comprehend Bedoll'e meaning. Till the last the old man hud spoken without excitement. Dread of the river was not on George?his bliss was supremo In his thought, and ho took tho squire's ordor for one of ex aggerated alarm. "Row. I say. with all your strength," cried Modell, with a llash of anger that sent tho young follow away instantly. "Mow! Concern yourself not for me. 1 am going Home. Mow! for her life, Winthrop! God will deliver you yet. "Good-bye, children. Remember al ways, my blessing is freely given you." "(Jod bless and keep you forever, father! " cried Buth, from the distanco, as her lover pulled away. Thoy landed, conscious of having I passod a swift current, indeed: but I-quite unthinking of the prico paid for their safety. Looking back on the darkling river, thoy saw nothing of the old man. ??Poor father!" sighed Ruth: how kind ho was! I'm sore-hearted for thinking of him at home, so lonoly." Left alone, Modell strotehed With tho long, heavy oars for his own shore, making appearance of strong exertion. 1 Mut when he no longer feared that , they might turn back with sudden un derstanding, aud vainly, to his aid, ho ' dragged tho boat slowly, watching her ' swift drift down?down toward the j towering mist. Then as he gazed at the cloud rising in two distinct volumes, came a thought spurring tho Loyalist spirit in an instant. Thereafter be pulled steadily, powerfully, noting landmarks anxiously, studying currents, consider ing always tin ir trend to or from his own shore. Half an hour had gone when he again dropped into slower motion. Then he could see Goat Is land's upper end between him and tho mist of tho American Wall. Hedell was noaring the first long swoop downward at tho rapids' head when those watching him despairingly from tho high bank below the Chip pewa River's mouth saw him put his boat stern with the current and cease rowing entirely, facing fairly the up rushing mist to which he was being hurried. Then thoy observed him stooping, US if writing, for a time. And then he knelt with head bowed down. Kneeling, they prayed, too. I EVANS AND POPE TO RUN. THK CONTEST IN THE DKMO ORATIO '?RIMARY. Dr. Popo Stands on tho Rolbrm Plat form and .Appeals (o I he People? Ellerbc Stands i<> the Mack and Will Support Evans. Special to The Slate. Nkwhkkky, Aug. II.?Dr. Samp son Hope is determined moro than ev er to go to the general primary,and.ho will announce his delegates next week in tho county papers. He will head tho list himself. Ho will havoatiokot in every county in the State. Dr. Pope was interviewed by your correspondent today. In view of the ro BUlt Of tho Reform convention, and tho foregone nomination to bo made In Columbia on Thursday. Tho inter view was as follows: "Doctor, I would like you to explain your position in refusing to go before the Reform primary." "I am standing squarely on the Re form platform in refusing to go into the preliminary primary, n "Tho March convention In 1800 de clared fo ? a primary of the white peo ple of thr State?not Mcformors alone, but of all the white people. The Dem ocratic convention which met in Au gust. 18!)0, composed almost entirely of Reform delegates, compromised with tho low country by having a primary for dologates in each county instead of a direct primary because thoso people claimed that a direct primary would be unfair to them, as the hulk of the white vote was from Columbia up to the mountains, consequently they claimed that they would have but little voice in the selection of candidates. The representation agroed upon was double the members of tho General Assembly. This was follow ed in 1800 and 1802. In 1800 the Conservatives had two candi dates, Messrs. Mratton and Karle, both went, into the general primary, the Re formers had but one. In 1802each had A YOUNG GIRTS FORTUNE. AN INTERESTING SKETCH. Nothing npticala bo strongly to a mother's affection as hor daughter just budding' into womanhood. Following l? an Instance: "Our daughter. lilonoho, now 10 years of oge, had Men terribly atllieted with nervousness, mid hod lost ttio entire nso of tier right arm.

I am therefore on the original Uetorm plat form and tho others are not. I will beat the race in this county and in the Stato. 'We loft the othor wing because of rings and bosslsin, and we have got a bigger ring and a more domineering boss than wo had under tho old i gline." Columbia Register, 10th ii?t. General Bllerbo returned to the oily yesterday from his homo in Marien. | where he has been since tho'ending of tho campaign. A Register reporter saw him and asked htm for an expres sion of opinion on Saturday's election. His remarks were characteristic of tho man. "Well, I'm licked," he said, "and I know it. but 1 am not doing any kick ing, i am going to support Mr. Kvans and I advise and urge all my friends to do so. It is the business and the duty of every true Roformur to uphold the action of Saturday's prl maries. 1 spoke In every county in the State except one, and that was because I could not got there. 1 went into this business in good faith and I am going to stand to tho rack, fodder or no fodder." All of General Ellerbc's friends?that Is, his loading friends?stich men a* Neal, Norton and others, have fallen into line and will tight for Mr. Kvans if there Is any oppo-dt ion to him. They will light Dr. l'ope or any man who comes out before tho regular Democrat* ie. primary or as an independent candi date. There was a good deal of talk yesterday about an independent candi date, ono who would reeoivo the Censor vativo vote and the vote of tho dissatisfi ed Roformers,if thoro be any of that fac tion. Some of tho warmest friends of Senator Evans believe that there will be strong opposition to him yet. If this should bo tho case every Reform er will he needed. Ono thing which has caused more comment than all others is tho ox tromoly light voto polled in every county. A great many people have attributed it to tho opposition to the convention pluu. The Alliance is charged with having held back and with not participating, the object be ing to be in a position to do as it saw (it toward any nominee. Most of Gen oral Ellerbc's friends take the ground that the voto is a silent ami strong protest against tho convention plan. Governor Tillman was nskod his opinion on the vote. lie said that the people had never seemed much Inter ested in tho gubernatorial light, but that all interest was centred in the Senatorial light. They did not cure much who was nominated for Governor. Another thing was that the farmers were taking advantage of the sunshine to work their crops, rain for over u month having delayed them and hav ing given t he grass a big hold. Talking ou the result of t he election Governor Tillman said that he believed the Dispensary was the chief Issue and that that was the trump card on which Senator Kvans had been victorious. A newspaper reporter who was pres ent suggested that tiie Governor hiin ; self had been the trump card on which ' Kvans had been nominated. I The Governor answorod this hint by saying that he had never written a lino or said a word in favor or against any of tho candidates in the race. He again repeated that he had held hands off and charged the Conservative nou s papers with heing responsible for tho wide-spread opinion that he was back ing Senator Kvans. He reiterated . that the Reform movement is as solid as tho rocks of Glbraltor. The people of Marion County must like General Kllerbo as few men are liked in their counties. They turned out overwhelmingly 011 Sat urday and gave him 1,705 votes. Tindal got5 und Kvans 0. This was the largest vote polled iu any county in propol ion to the number of Reformers. In fact it came near being the full Reform vote of that, county. No more complimentary vote could havo boon given a man and it testifies in strong terms to thostuuding of tho Swamp Kox in his native county.
