Every administration from the or ganization of our Government down to the present time is known by the leading events of the period, iro the .term of Mr. Hayes, besides the great fiatid of which himself is the cmbody nicnt, will be recognized as the admin islialion of vetoes, or a reckless use .of Ibis the most conservative power known to our conslitnlion. Mr. Hayes, in every veto message, brings prominently before the public his views of policy, his opinions of pub lic necessity, his ideas of constitu tional requirements and his notions of political precedents. In reading the life of Gen. Taylor, wc find tl cse remarkable words, utter ed during his candidacy for the Presi dency upon the veto power. At that time the entire country was exceed ingly jealous and therefore watchful of any encroachment upon their liber tics, and especially so of the free in stitution of the Kopublic. Elections then were constitutional and their re sults determined by .constitutional p:iticiples, therefore, the policies an nounced and the doctrines defended were of a constitutional character. ' Whatever side gained the victor}', it is reasonable lo conclude that the po litical principles advocated by Hie successful candidate was ihc will of tho majority of the citizens, and therefore, a true index of what was held to be constitutional. General Taylor says, "The power given by the' constitution to the Executive lo iutcrposc his veto, is a high conserva tive power; but in my opinion it should never be exercised except in cases of clear violation of the consti tution or manifest haste and want of due consideration by Congress." If President Hayes could forget himself and cease to parade his indi vidual opinions, and would address himself more to the constitution and jts clear violations?if be would adopt these views of an olficcr, hon estly elected by tlie honest vole of a large majority of his fellow-citizens, o?r country could soon be restored in its ancient mooring and our peo ple, already loo much excited and burdened by unwarranted discussions that gender strife between sections pud bitterness between citizens, might llddrcsa themselves to building their waste places and restoring, in a meas ure, their broken fortunes. If our members of Congress could liavo been brought to believe that ciery day, spent in paltry squabbles, ftud every night, in disgraceful lili bualering over differences that could not be adjusted because of the Presi dent's individual opinions, serve only Jo sink their proceeding to the level <jf a nuisance in the estimation of the people, ap adjournment might have been readied long before the first of July and thousands of dollars saved in tho nation's treasury* . Great questions involving the va jidity of the constitution have been before Congress from the first day of the extra session until its close, and the discussions upon the Democratic aide were conducted in all the fairness of an honest logical debate, but was met by the Radicals with taunts, epi thets and billingsgate. When these questions or matters were proven to be unconstitutional, passed by a ma jority of both branches of Congress and scut to the President for his ap proval, that oilicial saw fit to inter pose his private views and hia party's dictations between a clearly demon strated duty, the country's welfare and his own conscience. Questions relating lo the administration of jus tice and concerning constitutional I iw and civil liberty were bandied about ant! finally disposed of by an puv\ui runted use of the veto power. Edisto Riflos. This company has made extensive preparation for their celebration to day. We have noticed the command drilling on several occasions and from the promptness with which they obeyed every order and the facility and accuracy with which they were ?xecutcd, we predict for them a most creditable exhibition of military skill to day on tboir parade. Gen. Izlar, its war captain, will deliver an ad dress on the occasion and will give a complete history of the com maud from its dale of organization to the present time. No one is better able to perform this duty, or can give general satisfaction to the old vete ran members than the captain who exposed himself with them upon many a hard contested battlefields and who endured the heat and bur den, the wear and tear, and tho toil atul hardships of camp life. Our citizens may prepare them selves for a treat, such only as Gen. Izhir can give on a subject in which both his head and heart are deeply interested. Other amusements and the usual refreshments will be pro vided, so that ihcio will be no lack of food for either mind or body, and that every one may be in the right mood to honor the men whose noble deeds of daring havo given character to the history of our town. For what the Washington Light Infantry is to Charleston, or the Governor's Guard is to Columbia, the Edisto Hilles is lo Orangeburg. Redmond, the Out-law. This hunted and persecuted man by the bloody bend of the Federal law was induced last week by a spy to leave his mountain strong-hold and was suddenly surrounded by Revenue ofliccrs. Redmond, recognizing the treachery, drew his revolver and opened lire uftou the spy and posse which produced a hasty and by no means a dignified or creditable stam pede that did not cease until fifteen miles spanned the distance between the affrighted fugitives and the lone Out-law. It docs seem to U3 thai this kind of conduct on the part of a great nation against a poor, fatherless boy ought lo slop. The government is paying out large suras of money for the apprehension of Redmond to men who arc ten limes more the rasoal than Redmond ever was or can be. They are loo cowardly to arrest him if they could and are too dishonest to slop their pay by his arrest. Human ity, justice and every "other virtue de mand a cessation of hostilities v.'hcn Redmond offers to give up if the government will guarantee a fair trial. What more is needed. Mr. G. W. Williams. We regret that the cotton specula tion of New York is about to get Mr. Williams into perhaps inextrica blo trouble. We were in hopes that his icputcd ability to pay his linbifi th6 at the rate of one hundred cents on the dollar would be verified by a course so desirable for a man who was for years the leading merchant of our State and of the South. In stead of this wo find him ofi'ering fifty cents on tho dollar, which his credi tors indignantly refused and entered sr.il against him. Mr. Rirnie also has commenced suit against Mr. Wil liams for damages to a largo amount, and upon I he heals of these facts cir culars have been issued notifying the public of the dissolution of the firm of G. W. "Williams & Co., of Charles ton. Surely the meshes of misfor tune arc drawing cioscly about him. We cannot, however, believe without further proof that crookedness char acterized the conduct of Mr. Wil liams, The Quinine Monopoly. Some weeks ago we noticed editor ially the unjustifiable tax by which our people were forced to pay 8720, 000 for the support of two Northern (inns. This burden rented on us so long that the money was paid with out even a complaint, and, in the ma jority of instances, without a knowl edge of its injustice. The News and Courier, however, brought tho mat ter to light, and since then by Ihc in lluencc of the press throughout the country, Democratic Congressmen look the matter in hand and used such efforts as resulted at last in re moving tho tax. The manufacture of quinine is now open to the world and will command at the druggist only its market price, which ought not to exceed one-half its present rates. Wk cull the attention of our read ers to the address of the Committee of citizens and the accompanying pa pers on the Webster matter on our first page. The address is mild in tone, polite in torma, but is a positive and complete denial of Dr. Webster's misstatementSr Enquiry Answered. We have been requested to state in tho columns of the Demockat wheth er tho recently oppointed ofllciuls for the Judge of Probate Court and County Commissioner will hold over for a regular term of two years or only for the unespired term to end at the next general election. For the information of our readers we make the following oxtract from the uct passed by the General Assembly at its lust session: "That whenever at uuy time any vacancy shall occur in auy County office, by reasou of death, resigna tion, refusal or neglect to qualify of the person elected thereto, expiration of tho term of ollice, removal from the County or from any other cause, the Goveruor shall appoint some fit ) and proper person to fill tho vacancy so caused, and that the person so ap pointed shall bold his office in all cases in which the office is elective until tho next general election for members of tho General Assembly and until his successor should quali fy ; and iu cases of appointment, until the adjourn mem of the General As sembly at the regular session in 1880." The ofilces in question are, by the Constitution, elective, therefore by the above act the officers appointed by the Governor will only hold until the eext general election and until their successors should qualify. At the next general election, in 1880, these offices will he filled by the peo ple in the usual manner, by election. - ? - ???JS. 3 C II _ Peavine Hay. Editor Orangeburg Democrat: In my last letter, I promised to write on the cultivation of corn, which I will postpone in order to answer "Nemo" and "J. W. S." fully, on tho subject of "Pea-vine Hay." In his reply to mine, on "Pea as a Fertili zer," ho merely mentioned un inaccu racy in the analysis I gave, which I willingly acknowledge. I referred to the chemist, and the first that met my eye was the Pea, by a German chemist, not thinking there was any difference between the German pea and our common corn field pen. 1 wish "J. W. S." had given the analy sis of our pea in his letter. If there is any difference, the advantage is in favor of oqr pea?ours containing ing some less nitrogen and limo but much more potash and phosphoric acid?at all events it suits my theory. We might find a difference in many va rieties of our pea and even in the poa of the same kind. The analysis will depend much on the amount of plant food contained in the soil. I would state here a fact of practical impor tance : That the pea to be selected for a fertilizer, is the large tap root ed pea resembling a bean. That the pea receives its nitrogen through its leaves, which is incorrect, is the gen eral opinion as well as that of "J. W. S." Recent experiments have proven that it cannot; but that it receives it by its roots. We know the pei thrives well in porous soil. Wo seated ourself to write about Peavine Hay?the propriety of mak ing it. Our friend Nemo advised us to try it. We have, and we endorse all you and "J. W. S," say about it as a food for cattle and mules. Rut, when we reflect upon the value of tho plant food abstracted from our im poverished soil, we most positively refuse to take the advice. Friend Ne mo, if you have ever had the trouble and expense, as wo have had, of re suscitating dead land you would not give suck advice. According to our theory, we con sider that you and "J. W. S." fertil ize your old cows hugely* Let me advise you and my brother farmers n better plan, which I have tested for the last two years. Make a bounti ful crop of pea vines aud just let them remain where they grow. My cattle cat them readily from the fields as when cured and housed. The but ter I make has the goshen flavor and when turned from the fields, thoy are sleek too like "J. W. S.V Not for argument nor consistency's sake do we advise our farmers to cease from pulling up pea vines, eith er to gather or to euro for food, but for the sake of the future crop to ho grown. Dr. Ravenel told us, in our Agri cultural Society, that by using $9 worth of the famous ash clement, we might make four tons of peavine hay per aero, two years in succession, wont $80 per ton net to attempt the third year, for wc would fail. Friends ?'Nemo" and "J. W. S.," meot this question squarely. Pecs it pay to make pea vine hay? Estimato tho market valuo of ammonia, phosphoric acid, potash, magnesia, lime, and sul phur, contained in the pea vine, and the labor of cutting, carrying, hous ing and feeding, and you will find it to turn out like the Indian's gun, cost more than it aomcs to. To "Nemo" I would say, I am not eool for I have been fighting General Green, still pugnaciously. You are living between the rivers, water abundant, please add ice and pour on me. J. C. IL Fork of Kwsto, School Exhibition. Middle St. Matthews, June 30, '70. Editor Orangeburg Democrat: Your correspondent had tho pleas ure of attending, by special invita tion, the exhibition given at the close of the session of Fairlaun Academy, on tho evening of the 27th instant. This academy was established about two years ago, and sinco that time tins heen in successful operation un dor tho judicious management of Miss Anna R. Zimmerman. The commu nity is indeed _ fortunate in securing the benefits which accrue fiom a well regulated school of such high charac tor, presided over by pne, whose suc cess, qualifications and accomplish ments as an instructress, were so abundantly manifest on |Ans pleasant and interesting ocpasion. The exhibition consisted qf music, dilogues, declamations, charades and tableaux, and afforded an entertain ment of real excellence and merit, seldom witnessed at a country school. The exercise^ began with music, after which Master Russic Zimmer man delivered tho Salutatory address, and thus prepared the audience in mood and sympathy for the rich treat which followed. It would consume too much space to publish the entire programme, but the following pieces and names deserve special promi nence : "Hunting for Gold ;" (dia logue), by Masters John Paulling and R. Zimmerman. Dialogue, subject, Composition ; by Misses Essie Whet stone and Sue Arant. "NewsJ (dialogue), by Misses Edna Whet stone and Mary Arant. "Verses," by Miss Emma Whetstone. "Young Men of the present day," by Miss Edith Paulling. "Young Ladies of the present day^" by Master R. Zim merman ; the last was also quite suc cessful in "Comic Charley." The music on the pjjuno by Misses Essie and Edna Whetstone was well ren dered, and reflected much credit on their accomplished instructress. Mr. J. M. Whetstone added much to this part of tho exefcises by Ins perform; ance on tho violin. The exercises closed with a "Parting Song," after which "good-bye" was said, and friends parted, realizing doubtless as they rode homeward beneath the tall pines, how pleasant it is to turn aside from the toils and anxieties of lite, for a season, to cultivate the social element, and improve the better part of our nature, i Too much prase cannot be award ed the teacher for her oftort9 to give the community i first class entertain ' ment, and it Should gratify hor to j know that a brilliant success has crowned her labors. Ira. ? ? immm ? - Sheridan's School. Editor Orangeburg Denxocrat: The closing exercises of this most excellent school, which is always looked forward to with so much plea ure by the eitizens of our town, came off last Friday night in the Court house. This being an institution of which Orangeburg is justly proud, I was not surprised to see the largest and most brilliant audience ever assembled on a similar occasion in our thriving town. The large and spacious courtroom was crowded to overflowing, and a more appreciative audience I have never seen. That alone will say more for the splendid success of the exhibition than I could. Tho vast amount of good which is every j'ear emcnating from the noble eflbrts of the Christian scholar who is at the head of this school has been felt and appreciated in our entire and adjoining counties, judging from the number of young men who come from a distance to receive its advantages. About half past eight o'clock the speaking commenced, tho smaller boys leading off, who, without an ex ception, did remarkably well, ami showed that no pains had been spar ed iu their training. The highest ex pectations of that select audience wero fully met. The young gentlemen acquitted themselves handsomely,and would havo graced a college rostrum. They all opoke with a grace and ease rarely seen in young men of their age, reflecting rouoh credit on tho school. Discriminations are, I know, invidious, but I think it is only just to mention tho masterly style in which Master Harry Dnwson han dled his difficult piece. The query, "Is tho mental capacity of the two sexes equal," was discussed in a spir ited manner by quite a number of the young gentlemen. Mr. II. S. Wan naranker was tho presiding officer, and right well did he perform that duty, Tho whole aflair was ono of the best and most enjoyable of the kind that I ever had the pleasure of attending. This school is an orna ment to tho town and I wish Mr. Sheridan much success in his high and holy work of training the minds of tho young, I bespeak for him a large patronage, and hope his school will long bo what it is?a benefit and a blessing to this community.
