Tbe Farmers Moving. Abbev&e JBcdmxt. The campaign of the farmers com? menced in Barnwell last Monday. Ben Tillman was present and delivered an add raw upon the situation, showing the aseuesity for reform and a reorganiza l?o? of the agricultural department. Be argued that the experimental stations should be abolished and supported in eigOToas sad pointed language the es? tablishment of 8 separate agricultural college. Be paid his respects to the pr?sent Board of Agriculture and show id the ?neme?eney of tho present plan of agrien!taral training. His remarks .ere reeemd wkb hearty applause. Senator Yoemans rose to reply but the erowd booted him down and after a rain attempt by the chairman to restore order the meetiog adjourned. Senator Y oom ans had no chance to be heard. Judging from this meeting it is evi? dent that the formers are more deter? mined than ever te have a change. The movement is hy ne means dead. The ferners were quiet when soaking their amps bot are op and at it again. The Sabbath Day. Ber7, father Monaghan preached ar> admirable sermon rc the Catholic Church lest Sabbath morning on the "Observ- j asea af the Sabbath." The subject was timely and was considered with his * asea! ability sad clearness. The thoughtful part of his audience was ; deeply impressed and all who beard bim moat have appreciated the wisdom of bis words and the propriety and duty of j morvefosefy observing the divine com- j mend ia reference to keeping holy the sacred day. Father Monaghan preach? ed apon a subject which concerns every professing Christian io the land. The day is desecrated tn a thousand ways and tbs Sabbath of to day rs not what it .sae was er what it was intended to be. ?h? Model Man of*?he State.

WASHINGTON LETTER. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 5, 1S87. 1 The President has held but one public reception since bis return and that was carly this week, when he shook hands with 300 persons ? be? lieve it is not his intention to resume his regolar receptions until after the meeting of Congress. A delegation representing the British House of Commons and the Trades Union Congress waited upon Mr. Cleveland this week in the inter? est of their scheme of arbitration to eettle international differences by peaceful methods rather than the usual resort to armed conflicts. Right Honorable Lyon Playfair, M. P., wa3 the chief spokesman for the visitors, and he set forth the object of their endeavor in a? eloquent and im? pressive manner-the Pr?sident grace? fully responding to his address and cordially reciprocating the -amicable utterances of the distinguished Eng? lishman. Preparations are sti?? in progress for the meeting of Congress, and there is much discussion about the preliminary movements, such as the organization of the House and the formation of the important commit? tees. There will be more new mem? bers than for many years past, and in consequence, . the - committees will hare to be almost wholly re organized Among those relegated to the quiet pursuit* of private life are the chair man and three members of the com-, mittee o?r ways and means, three members of the appropriations com E&ittee, and nine of the fourteen mem? bers o? the committee on elections, and so on through the long list-so lhat the Speaker will have to make room for a great deal of raw material, as it were. So far as the of??ces are concerned y it is believed there will be ao eoutesv, except for the position of door keeper of the House, for which three or more-candidates, including the present incambent, are offering. The session will probably be fruit? ful of new and radical schemes of leg? islation, asaong which I will mention in addition to tir?se hereto&re enu? merated, a bill to restrict foreign em? igration-that is, of the vicious ele? ment--and the paternal idea to take the te?egf?plf oTider the fostering care of the general Government, which in ha evil and centralizing tendencies may be regarded as a frt companion piece to the iniquitous Blair Educa- * tional bill. If the United States take control of the telegraph system of j the country, the next move will be an absorption of the railroad lines. Snch legislative measures flourish in des- j potic governments like Russia and Turkey, bt?t they are foreign to the soil of the land of the free and the ; home of the brave, and I do not think this unrepublican legislation can be engrafted cpo-n our tree of liberty, at least as long as the great Democratic party stands as the guardian of the Constitution and the hope of our re? publican system. The Postmaster Generai has-raised quite a commotion among merchants by his enforcement of the law pro? hibiting the mailing of packages of fchird and fuurth class matter in ad? vertising wrappers. It appears that the regulation has been regarded as a dead-letter for years, but in his recent revision of the rules, Mr. Vilas or? dered that it bo made effective ; thus such articles can now only be seut as first class matter. Can it be that the o?Sce seekers are at last satisfied ? It would appear so from the statement of Secretary Bay? ard, who says that the dignified and responsible office of First Assistant Secretary of State goes begging-that no one will take the place-that is, of those whom he would wish to have it. So here ts an opportunity for those patriots whose innate modesty has hitherto prevented them from heeding the call ot duly to assert their claims to public office. The reduction of thc. national debt for the first four months of the cur- , rent fiscal year was $t0.73(>.03?, the total debt now, less cash in the Treas- ? ury, being $1,2:;$,002,701, while the j interest-bearing debt is something ! smaller. There was a clear gain of j two million and a half dollars in Gov? ernment receipts last mouth over the | amount received for the same time . fast year. President Cleveland, Secretary ? Whitney, and Colonel Lamont have j subscribed very liberally to the New ; York Democratic campaign fund-the j 5rst $1,000, the second $2,500 and j the third ?250 and besides, many de? partment- cieiks have handsomely eon tributed to the same pnrpose. Death of Jennie Lind, the . "Swedish Nightingale." - [r roa? tb? ii.iii and Expr?s? ] L?XIM)N?, November ?* -Jennie Lind j (Mme. tioldschniid?). the celebrated Swedish singer, is dead. She was CG j years of agc. She had been seriously ; iii for some weeks. Sh^ retired from the stage after ber i marriage in America iu 1352, but ?\-ap- t peared at various concerts iu aid of I charities. She had not appeared in j pablie since 1806. j The celebrated Swedish nigh jingle* j was born at Stockholm. Oct. G. 1821 ! and nine years later was a pupil io thc ! training school of music. For three j years she sang children's part on the j stage, and for four years more was J almost deprived of the greatest pleasure, j of ber life by the partial loss c/ her ( voice. Aa the time was busily occupied io the study of instrumental music, it was not k>st, and the sadden retara of her wonderful voice in all its beauty sod strength started ber on the career which woo h> r renown. lier first reg? ular character on thestage was Agatha in 'The Huguenots,' but she subsequently studied ic Paris with Garcia and Mey? erbeer, and returned to Stockholm amid the enthusiasm of her people before she made her start in her first tour of Eu? rope, at Breeden, and achieved her great triumph in 1844, at Berlio, as Vielka in 'The Camp of Silesia.' This was written specially for her by Meyer |beer, who remained ber fast friend I until ber death. Jenny Lind's success was so great and continuous that when she made her first appearance in Lon? don-, in 1347, she was welcomed as the ^ first singer of the day and was raptu? rously applauded and feted. The role in which she first bowed the British metropolis to her feet was one cf those in which she had won the enthusiastic encouragement of her countrymen at Stockboles in 18S8-Alice, in -Robert I le Diable.' Three years after this, io . 1850, she came to this country under the management of Mr. P. T. Barnum, ' and conquered all New York in the famous old opera bouse at Castle Gar? den. Her engagement was for 150 concerts, but only were given, the engagement being then cancelled. Jenny Lind's Romance. Jenny Lind's husband, Otto Gold schmidt, though be is quite bald, is fifteen years younger than his wife. Th? story of their marriage is a ro? mantic one and little known. During her travels through America Sir Julius Benedict, her accompanist, was obliged suddenly to return to E-ngland, and then she lemembered a poor young German musician she had met the year before, and sent for him at once to supply Sir Julius' piace. It was not long before fhe young musi? cian was violently in love with the and unknown and so much prima donna, but beding poor her junior, he had no hope of any success. Finally be became so un? happy he resigned his place, and be? ing pressed by the cantatrice to tell the reason for such a step, he con? fessed his hopeless love, and was as? tonished and delighted when she fell into his arms and declared she had loved him from the first. They have been extremely happy together, and people would scarcely have guessed that she was the older of the two. Near Unto Death. The Gallows will not be Cheated. CHICAGO, ILLS., Nov. 3.-Sheriff Matson has already begun the building of the scaffold on. which it is intended to hang the anarchists. Carpenters were busy this afternoon worki?g OD pieces which go to make up the machine of death, and rt will not be long before the gallows will be ready. This is regarded in some quarters, as significant of Matson's belief that the Governor will not interfere. THE COWARDLY ANARCHISTS. The event at the counfy jail this morning was the conference, of nearly an hour, between Captain Black, L. S. Oliver and the seven doomed anarchists. Captain Black refused to make public the matter under discussion. He said that he expected to leave for Springfield with the petition of amnesty on Mon? day night. On inquiry as to whether he hoped for executive eletneocy he replied: *I am always a hopeful man. I will hope until there is no longer any ground for it when there can OD ly be grief for seven men murdered by iaw. There Iras been a geod deal of talk about the possibility of suicide by these men; 'What do you think of it?' was asked. 'They could't be hired to take their own lives. Not a man of them would do so. Not one If they wished to do so nothing would be easier, but I tell j J you that if their ceils were filled with ? ? deadly weapons, and they had poisons more dreamy and subtle than the waters of the river Lethe, they would scorn to use them. They are not common scoun? drels, who would try to cheat the gal? lows. There is no ignominy m- the gallows for them. If they must die, they would prefer to be strangJed by the organized robbery they sought to overthrow, than to slink out of thc world like cowards.' TUE ANARCHISTS WEAKENING. CHICAGO, ILLS., Nov. 3.-August Spies, Samuel Fielden and Nicholas Schwab signed a petition this afternoon, humbly begging the Governor to com? mute their sentence. These three, of the seven condemed meo, are the only ones who have not written letters to the Governor, saying that they would not accept commutation of their sentence, and that all efforts in that direction were without their sanction. The sis natures of Fielden and Schwab were secured this morning by Captain Black and L. \V. Oliver, who visited the ptisoners at tho jail and had private conferences with them. All sorts of entreaties were adopted to get Spie3 to sign the petition but he resolutely re? fused to do so. as did also Lingg, Engel, Fischer and Parsons. At o.30 p. m. the same petition was brought to the j-iii by Dr Schmidt, Alderman Frauk S'rauber and II. Lin myer, with a per? mission from the :>benrT to confer with tiie condemned men. George Schilling r.rrived later and joined the party. It *:.s plain that ."'pies had weakened .sir:oe thc morning conference, lie road thc petition over several times. After an hour's pleading ir-pi'js .said, 'Wei!, give : nie a pen,' and with a flourish his name ? was appended below. The visitors then j ? turned their attention to the others, ? who have written roners declining execative clemency, Lut obtained no further signature.

Mau? rice Thompson is by nature and temperament peculiarly qualified for the task he bas under twken in the November American-a brief description of Paul Hayne and a discussion of bis poetry.

Paul Hayne had his faults, but they were not those which were attributed to him : and a brother-poet does the world a service by drawing the veil and revealing a noble soul.
