The leading newepapets of Now York and t be other great eitiee think that the Republican■ bare made iheantelvee ridicu lous by their tariff bill. Tbe New York Times says that tbe bill is in sweeping and direet condemnation of tbe platform of tbe Republican ticket. Tbe Herald of tbe came oily, denouneee it as simply a fraud and a burlesque. That is the general voice of tbe Independent preee. The Baltimore Sun, which ia one of tbe raoet conservative of Democratic newspepere. eaye: "Tbe general verdict will be that the bill is a political trick, played at the close of tbe ■eanion when it is no longer practicable to act upon it."

It is less than a mouth before the election is held and as yet there is for Solicitor no regularly nominated candidate! Picture the condition ot affairs were there two great politi cal parties in the Sta e. Where would the Democracy be were it to contend with a strong well organ ized opposition t Yet the question may be asked: “What is to be done, as the convention can not make a nomination nor has it the authority to remand the qneetiou to a primary V The only solution we see is to adjourn, if a nomina tion be impossible, and let the peo ple decide at the general election, wbo shall be Solicitor. Doubtless there are many objections to this plan and itshonld be adopted only as a dernier resort, bat we are of tbe opinion that tbe exigencies of the occasion now demand it. The courentiou will attempt to make a nomination to morrow and we hope it will succeed, but it it should tail we trust it will be no longer impost d upon a people aln-ady exhausted in pa tience, but adjourned tine die. Whatever this body may decide to do, it will be too late to leave record of patriotism and fidelity to party. Bitter partisanship alone docs it leave as a legacy to the country. The dangerous precedent set by this and the convention of tbe Second Congressional District will, we (rust, never be followed by any futore convention of the South Carolina Democracy. .JOB CONGRESS, GEO.

We have hilherto refrained from expressing an opinion ou the status of affairs iu tbe Judicial Oonvm tion of the Th ird Circuit, not be cause we were of the opinion that it was not a matter for our coosid eration since we do not form a p irt of that circuit. It is folly to say that because oue happens not' to re side ia a certain ooautj or district he should show no solicitude uor ex press an opinion coucerning the affairs ot raid county or district. What concerns tbe welfare ot the l>eople and the Democratic party o ‘ tbe Third Oircnit ia and should be a subject tor tbe careful considera tion of every citizen and Democrat of tbe whole Stale irrespective of aection or locality. We have been aileut simply because we regardet the delegates to tlto Convention fully capable of disclnugiug tbedo ties entrusted to them by tbe pen pie of the circuit. But this confi dence seems to have been mis placed. The time has come when torbear ance ceases to be a virtue Three separate sessions of tbe conveution at three different places, each ses •ion followed by a recess, a week or mote in tiuratirn, has failed to uc oomplisb tbe purpose for which tbe couveutiou was c J ed. After six but dred and seventeen fruitless ballots the convention adjourn ed on Saturday to meet in Su liter to-morrow. Possibly a recess follow iOR an adjournment for the tbin time, or the atmospheje of tbe fourth city selected tor tbe meeting of tbe convention will serve to thaw the doggeduess of the members wbicb now firmly holds tbecouvei: tion lucked. Pei haps so; but there is little at present to iudicate speedy solution of tbe probhm. Doubtless tbe delegates are ac tuated by the most sincere and pur est motives, be ievlng that they are obe>ing ibe wishes of tbeir re^pec live constituencies. But it is mistaken idea. Tbe) may be fulfill ing to the letter tbeir instructions but t< eyjare acting regarulessly of tbespiiit m which these iustruc lions were given. We venture to say that there is baldly u man iu tbe Third Circuit who is uot thor oughly sickened by tbe bick< r logs and obstiactive tactics of ibis convention, snd had they foreseen only au 1‘ finite^Hitual part of what they are now compelled to submit U>, aueh instructions would never have been given to tbe several del egations.

Mach ha» appeared In these papers which would do uo credit to journals of a far inferior order. Base calumny and persona epithets such as cbaracteriZ'd tbe editorials of these Cuaileston dai lies in regard to the recent primary elections iu that city, cau not be too strongly condemned. Indn gence in such practices by news palters taking so high a stand iu the State and community lowers the lofty tone of jouraltsm. There have beeu charges made ol u rin : rule,” u boHsism” and the like, in tbe political circles of Ubarlestou.

Senator Cockrell made a caustic reply * to iSenator Hale’s goody- goot^r speech in ri g-trd to the cir cular issued hy Gen. ttenet in relu tion to equalizing the two political parties in the Government employes at the armories and arsenals. He opened bis lemarks by reading the Jay Hubbell bulldozing circular to Government employes, issued dur ing the campaign of 1880, which was signed by Senators Alii on, Hale, Aldrich, and Hiscock. He then quoted Garfield’s letur to Dorsey, of Star route notoriety, asking him to have Brady, Second Acsiat.tnt Postmaster General, call ed upou for aid, also, a letter from Levi P.

Probably no country in Europe lias such a thorough system of police sur veillance. As soon as you reach their border your r»‘sport is given up and registered. *Vhcn you arrive at your hotel you give it up again and it is at once sent to police headquarters, and you are again regis tered. Whenever you change your loca tion you do the same thing, and in this way tho landlord everywhere is made responsible to the government for the foreigners under his roof. Then, when you wish to leave the country, you must again send your passport to the police office and obtain a permit, which is good for only three days, and which is attached to your passport and removed at the last Russian station on the Austrian or German fron tier. So that your passport contains a complete record of when and where you entered the country, just where you have been and how long you have remained. Yet with all this you have no conscious ness of being watched, and you probably are not, when the authorities arc once satisfied as regards your nationality and good character.

Tho irregular lathe and tho mod&m harvester were inven tions; their dim, indefinable forms loomed up in the mists of their inventors’ mjnfa they felt the impulse of improvement, the value of the goal gained, and they went to work and at last succeeded, and the wood carver and reaping hook lost their usefulness to teat extent. The electric telegraph was never dis covered ; it was consistently invented. Countless devices and methods were de signed, tested, thrown away—to be after wards revivified, many off teem—new appliances and systems laboriously worked out, tlie midnight oil unspar ingly sacrificed, until at last a perfected and practical system and apparatus were given to the world. It is hard to ervy whether the dynamo was invented or disooverod, considering its prototype, tlie mngneto machine. The probabilities are it was an accidental dis covery. The arc light was a discovery pure and simple. Electric incandescence was a discovery, but the incandescent Limp in its commercial form stands forth <9 one of the most beautifid examples off men’s inventive faculty. The countless experiments on malarial, tho bulb, the seal, the standardizing, tbe pumps, and all the appliances Utat go to provide us with the beautifully glowing luminary, all are ineradicable proofs al Invention of the very UiKiMMt order. Midnight oil and noonday arm, morniugSi rigor and oven- aepcaafal samusatiuns, were all teto t;sprirttkm to complete the work This is tcuo invention. TW phonograph was originally a dis covery, a happy thought off Edison's, but hreentiaQ of • high cider was necessary to produce the hamrifni Insteumnrt of the prerant day. It waa like Howe's aeedlc—the gem was there, but tbe ma chine bad to be devised to moke It prac- tiovUe. Hie undulatncy tefaphaas wosa difleovesy, a bnUiant one, but still a dis covery.

Oswald Crawford, in Tho Fortnighly, lias a charming article on “Summer Time in Rural PortugaL" He rives an account of tho survival of the fittest in tho noble gardens that aro found as relics and reminders of Moorish taste. He says that “it humiliates lus national {vide to contemplate tbo pleasure gardens of lus English friends; even to pass by train, In summer time, through the land and see uo garden that is any refreshment to tho spirits, save those of the cottagere." In other words, the northern garden is a b1»ow place for flowers, but In the southern garden ‘’flowers of infinitely leas Itnionanco tlian tho walks, tlie shade* of branching trees, tho gmaery of leaf and spray, the cooling breezes in summer, the warmth of tho sun in winter, and at all cersons the golden fretwork that the sunlight makes upon the ground through overhanging boughs.” Wo are young in a good many ways; but in the art of the beautiful wo have most of all to leani. Such notes as Mr. Crawford girea us aro especially valuable, not to folfood only, but to America. Wo have a superabundance of show gardens A Noimle** dock Invented. A noiseless clock has been invented by a Frenchman. In place of the ««"«>i pendulum, the hands are set In motion by tho unrolling of a chain, the end off which b fastened to a buoy floating in a tank of liquid. This fluid escapee at a uniform rale, and can be utilized to feed a lamp wick, thus giving the apparatus the double character off a dock and lamp.
