A Strange Sight. ^ Georgetown. Enquirer.-. One of the most remarkable political spectacles lately presented to the eyes o^-thepeople of South Carolina was ./that afforded by the Congressional i Con ven tion of the Second District. Mr. *feeorge B?"4Tillman, the present Hep ^?scjitative was. .unanimously renomi ftated. He thanked the Convention for the'honor, and then.regaled the dele? gates with a violent .harangue in which President Cleveland's administration, and especially ita civil service and financial policies, were bitterly denouue ed^/The- President was contemptu? ously alluded to as '^?e lieutenant of ?fohn Sherman and the agent of Wall street and the hauts." | The fiscal pol? icy of the government was stigmatized as tho "cause of hard times," It ie gratifying to know that at least one Democrat in the Convention had the courage to oppose these views and defend the Administration against this fierce and unjust attack. Mr. Kelly offered a resolution endorsing Cleve? land's civil service policy, and a scene of confusion ensued which made it im? possible to take a vote on the resolu? tion. What the result \ would; f have been, had no^ the Convention crawled dilemma by adjourning with ? indecent, baste, caa only be .conjectured ; but we hope, florine Hike of the honor i"yL goo?" name of the Democracy of |b^Mi||^r^,' that. 5?r. Kelly's ,?a??u^oo|^oi?d^have received more than one vote.^ We.are loath too?lieve that Mri^rfjja^? nitfiguiled and gra tutious vituperation represents the pre? vailing sentiment in his District. . _ - ---- ? ^ ' " Anderson Intelligencer. The State Executive Committee has nominated Capt. M. L. Bonham, of Abbeville, for Adjutant and Inspector General, iostead of Gen. Maniganlt, whose death since the meeting of the State Convention made the position OD the State ticket vacant. The friends of Capt. Hugh L. Farley, of Spartan burg, who cam? within eight votes of. beating Gen. Maniganlt in the Con? vention, think he was entitled to the ??3^FI?2^^ 'fS?Bjijls ^?ff other candidates complain that Abbeville has been: given two places on the State ticket, bat there is no criticism of Mr. Bonham's fitness for the position, or his personal popularity in the State.

The World's Greatest Tele? scope. Passengers ont of Boston on the Bos? ton and Albany Railroad may have no? ticed just across the Charles. River, at the first bridge ont of the city and op? posite Cottage Farm station, a hand? some residence, and back of it a low, I ronnd topped observatory, and outside, near^ftra long, white mode! of a tele? scope, and in the same yard a two-ito ry brick building. The building is the factory where the great. Russian tele? scope was made,'as well as many others also famous, and where work' is now going on for the Lick telescope, which will be the largest in the world. I ? Of tkeVrtwo jdisks ofr glass, each one yard m?diameter, for the Lick telescope, the flint glass has been made along time, but the,crown glass, although, or? dered fi?e years ago, was only received by the Clarks in September last. It was made, after repeated trials and failures, at an establishment near Paris, the only one that could get ont such a piece ?of, work. > vEach glass cost $25, 000 in the rough, and they cannot be finished before ?aH. At first, machinery could do a little rough grinding, bntfor months the bare hand only has been nsed in applying the polishing substance, which is rough. The g?asses have Teached a stage' where the. removal of a small portion of the surface in the wrong place would ruin them. * :They are frequently tested, set m a' circular iron* frame called a cell. Na instruments can be used for the test, bat the Jong experience of the Clarks has given them a judgment which is un? erring! ; ' ^Kery-soon .the tests-- will be made in the; model ofHhe telescope outside the building^ This . model is of the pro? posed Lick, telescope, and is 57 feet iong;. * These two: lenses are set-six in? ches apart, in their iron frame, which has openings to allow of tbe glass being properly cleaned on each side. The lenses and frames together weigh over 700 pounds. ! : While everything now appears to be perfect, some slight defect in the glass that Eas not ye' appeared, or an acci? dent may render useless ait the labor of months. *: When completed the great ' telescope witt be placed in the- observ? atory on Mount Hamilton, in Santa Clara ?

Ifl?rk Twain and Dan DeQuille room? ed together in early Comstock days. One morning Dan missed his boots, and after a vain search he suspiciously inquired bf Hark, ~.who~ was lying in bed lazily smoking a clay pipe : "Mark, I can't, find my boots; do you know anything about 'em ?" "Your boots?"' complacently replied Mark. "Well, yes; I threw them at that blasted cat that was yowling around the house last night !" "Threw my boots at the cat !" howl? ed Dan, in a rage. "Why didn't you throw your own boots !" "Dan," said Mark, after a reflective puff or two, "if there is anything I hate it is a selfish mau. I have observed of late that you are growing selfish.

When 'Compound Oxygen' is inhaled, the heart has imparted to it increased vitality. That organ sends forth the blood with more force and less wear to itself; the vital cur? rents leave on their circuit new deposits of vital force in every cell of tissue over which they pass, and return again to the lungs for' a new supply.
