Will the South now have representa tion.' Even John Kcllcy, who hates Conk ling with a holy hatred, admits that tho treachery of some of his pretend ed friends was such as men instinct ively despjset J. L-. W, Matthews, tho editor of the Fourche Valley Times of Arkan sas, was shot last week by a "select1' band of outlaws who had a grudge against him. October 19th is spoken of as the day for Thanksgiving for the recov ery of Gnrlicld. We had better wait to see if it is the intention of Provi dence that he should recover. The enforcement of the Revcuc laws seems to Tic fruitful of violence nud blood shed. - -libere is . something vroug. Let a change be made. Mr Gladstone, the 'English Pre mier, has sent his'condolenee'to the White House in a very feeling and . complimentary letter.

Dr. Bliss -isjreported as-having said that if ho had a probe on the bullet he would not draw it it out. . Upon which some experts do not hesitate to say that Dr. Bliss is a fool. Mr Corikling, like "Brer Fox," will "lie low." No telling what may hap pen. There arc startliug changes iu this wicked world. The Democrats have not the slight est objection to Grant and Conkling being read out of the Republican par ty. Should liko to have seen them thus eliminated when Hancock was running for Presidcut. If the President lives, Dr. Bliss will be the greatest man in tho land; but if he dies he will be the littlest. Is there any thing that succeeds .like 8UCCCSS. ? "Billy the Kid," the Mexican out law, a beardless youth scarcely 21, who boasts that he has killee a man for each of his years, was at last kill cd himself last week by a Mexican Sheriff. Gen. J. C. Claussen of the colored militia was severely, if not mortally stabbed on Saturday night in Char leston in a street row. Cause Bccch erisra. Gov. Q. M. Roberts of Texas de clined to unite with Gov. Foster of Ohio in the proposed appointment Ivy the Governors Of a day of prayer for the recovery of President Garlicld. His grounds were that he is opposed to the principle of the union of church and state. He desired as much as any one else the recovery of the Pres ident, but he objected to all guberna torial appointments of religious meet iugsou the above grouuds Great indignation is expressed in Texas about it. There is a rumor that Senator Con kling intends to visit the South next autumn, to make acquaintance with thepcople and, by his airs and graces and newly conceived opposition to monopolies, capture their political support. . . The opposition of Gov. Roberts of Texas to the appointment by State authority of aThanksgiving or a day oj"Prnycr for the churches to ob serve, i? not a new idea, nor is it con fine to Gov. Roberts. We know of ministers of the gospel who oppose it not only on the ground of the necessi ty of keeping-church.and State sep arto, hut "also oh the ? additional ground* that Worldly iricii"Tiave' no ...right to order appointments for the church. -. ? .': . ^..Drs.

Iu our last ist>ue tho dispatches from \Vn8hiugton authorized us in reporting the President ns on the high road to recovery. This week t he as pect is entirely changed for tho worse A pus cavity has formed in the path of the ball which has necessitated a Btirgical operation for obtainiug an other outlet from the wound. Yes ter fractured bone was extracted, and the patient is becoming weaker and more restless. Wo fear from the tenor of the latebt dispatches that the President is far from beiug out of danger. State Agricultural Meeting. The Annual meeting of the State Agricultural Society opened in Gnenville on Tuesday, about two huudred prominent farmers being present from this State and Georgia. The usual opening addresses were dc livered by President B. F. Crnyton, Master J. N. Lipscomb, Mr. M. L. Donaldson and Col. Wm. Wallace of South Carolina, aud Rev. Dr. Daniel Butler of Georgia. A paper was read on the cultiva tion of uplaud cotton, by Mr. E. R. Mclverof Dnrliugtoa-, one on the cultivation of uplaud rice, t>3' Dr. J. W. Summers of Orangeburg, and another on the labor question, b}* Mr. C. H. Moisc ofSumter. After the discussion of these questions, the Society adjourned-for the da}-, for the enjoyment of a ride around the city, and a visit to Piedmont Factory.- The meeting promises to be a very inter ingouc. The Overthrow of C'oult.ing. After a most disgusting and weari-! some fight at*'Albany, ?.'oukling has been overthrown, and Lapham, a man in many respects his inferior, haB been elected over him as Senator from New York. About a week ago Miller was also elected iu the place of Plat t who resigued with Coukliug. The fight has been in ruanj- respects a use less and revolting one. On the one sidetbc strutting pride of Conkling, aud on the other the worthlessness, and riugism of Lapham and Miller, the successful cautlidates. The New York Times may well say that the great State of New York can find nothing in the new Senators in which to feel proud. But the uselessness of the light is another point. Before the new rienators will take their seats iu Congress the general elcctiou will take place. Why then all of this disgrace ful exhibition? But iu all evils there is some good. The Republican party is weakened, and the Democratic par ty is strengthened. If tin election should be held now, New York would go Democratic with hardly a doubt, and if the change iu public sentiment is properly fostered we may conn New York as safely back iu the Dem ocratio fold. -? > ^ ?< ? ? ? The Health of Washington. From common report and occa sional newspaper paragraphs, the health of the city of Washington docs not nppear to be any of the best. It is said that the malaria from the Potomac atl'ccts the atmosphere anil that fever and kindred diseases from this cause arc not unfrequent. This is the excuse that some of our Con gressmen make lor tippling. They say their physicians advise it for keeping off malaria, and they are very sorry. Now, if the Capital can not be moved to some higher lati tude, where our Congressmen may be taken out of danger of. snakes, mal aria rind monkey s, where they can be refreshed by cooler breezes and ex hilarated by natures pure mountain dew, there is still another plan. Let the whiskey of the Capital be "medi cated'1 and'not taken straight. When we consider the army experience, we are astonished, with all the Confeder ate Brigadiers, for which Washing ton is noted, that the past should In forgotten, and that the physicinns j should be,so led astray. The repre sentatives of a nation, ought to be ! kept healthy, and robust. Labor and t anital. It may bo a matter of interest for U9 t0;npte.that wages are higher, in other States, than in"SouTh Carolina. The range as taken from carefully compiled- statistics is from about $2.5 per mouth, for laborers in the New. England States to $41 in Cali fornia. In our State, we believe, the average is $8. ' ? - What then ia the inference io be drnwn from theseficts The low of su ply and'deuiftuULti buuincao is ?8 ctfl in is the law of water seeking its level th nature. It may be said that one cause of higher wages in the North ern and Western States, is the high er state of improvement, and conse* quently, the greater productiveness of laud" in these States. We grant this. But, what is the cause of the ditTerence of improvement? It is the combination of capital with labor. Wo have .ndduced these facts to point out what we believe the inter est of the State demands, in the mat ter of immigration. We dou't want all laborers, but we uccd a consider able amount of capital. Politically and agriculturally, it is the settler of means who buys a farm for himself, or who 3tarts a factory, a mill or some other useful enterprise, whom we need just now as much, if not more thau the laborer. It is true that labor is gradually getting higher, but the immigration of actual land owners will tend to relieve the diffi culty as well as the natuial increase of our population. We are not op posed to more labor, for it is the | strong arm of the laborer who gives j life and energy to our land. Wi h out him capital would be fruitless. But it is the combination of capital and labor that we weuld urge. Let our Immigration Bureau in attend ing to the one not neglect the other.
