THE P?STMA8TERSHIP. What is Said About it in Wishing ton. The Washington correspondent of the Kew? and Courier under date of tbe 17th in? stant his the following to say in reference to the nan di og fight over the appointment of a .postmaster for this city. "SSrs. John Whittemore's recommendation for tbe Sumter postoffic-, by Johnston sod Webster, is being bong np on the ground of ber age and incompetency and the irregular habits of her husband, with the prospect that ber appointment will not be made " The same correspondent makes toe io'low? ing comments os the contest for the U.

Brayton now bolds a $1,600 position io tbe House document room, and if be should get the marshalsbip it will leave a soft berth to be fought for, for this place is not covered bj thec&A service. -Murray is mating a told deaflBLfor soie recognition of the reordantze^gHmbi?can faction, claim? ing that as it betIvKHPguIars by more than 1,000 00 the elecffljpp vote and 2,000 on the State ricket, it it entitled to a share of the spoils.

Against Southern Industry. ? - ' Tuesday night, io Greeovilie, th ert? wa* held a meeting of mill men that was pregnant with interest for south? ern industry. It was a meeting at which committees were appointed to go to Washington aod oppose the bil) that is now being urged to bolster up the cotton manufacturing in New England. The bill alluded to is tbe outgrowth of deliberations of tbe Arkwright club, an organization cf New England manufacturers, and it seeks to regulate labor io the south This proposed regulation ia so ar? ranged tbat New Eoglaod can again hope to compete with the south in tbe manufacture of cotton The law i? not sought with any idea of helping labor at all. It is a purely selfish move and iotended for no other purpose than to cripple southern mills in the interest of these of New England. Sootbern labor bas asked no conces? sions or laws It has been, and is, thoroughly satisfied with the condition.* that surround it. There have been no strikes or m armoring of strikes. Everything is peaceable, the mills are prosperous and the operatives live in a manner more inducive to health and happiness than half the minor stock? holders tn the New Eoglaod institu? tions. New England has always been a favored section For long years it* indostries bave beeo fostered by a protective tariff tbat amounted to rob bery of the classes generally The south, hy force of destitution, eaused by a devastating war and lack of capi? tal, was unable to win her proper place io the struggle for industrial supre? macy. For twenty years after tbe declaration of peaoe she strove vigor? ously to unthrottie herself: bot with very indiff?rent success. Patieooe and perseverance at last accomplished ber freedom. Money was made at home and immediately invested io cotton mills, whose success was unbound d. Foreign capital was attracted by tbe natural advantages and development sn rapidly took place that the south soon 'stood pre-emioeotiy the cotton manu factoring centre of the world. This state of affairs was compassed by no taws or machinations-\'? was the resole of the Almighty's gifts, and no legi* latore. national or otherwise, can rob this section of its great heritage. Coe2ress bas no right to afford fur? ther protection to New Su gi and L?t ie take irs cha noes tu tbe struggle just as io di vid nala have to do. Our na tional representatives should at. leas? wait until southern operatives ask for laws changing the conditions tb*t surrouod them No changes should be ordered at the instance of avarice and jealousy. It is a struggle between New England and tbe south Let them "fight it out fairly, and the result will bs good for the country' and its people - Cal uta bia Register Pobiem for the Twentieth .Century. * ? Washington school girl recent? ly read un essay in the Omiston In? stitute, of this city, before her class, which ranks as a gem of thought We commend it to every reader of the Intelligencer : "Suppose that all men coveted air, ?nd that it were possible to possess themselves of it and store it away in huge receivers Suppose that this could be done to such an extent that in time the strong were able to possess themselves of all the air and dole it out to the weak only on their own terms Suppose, finally that the monoplists should make a "corner" in air and bold it on such terms that the people were perishing by thou sands for the want of it What then would be the remedy ? Should the government step in and compel these persons to supply the world with air for the people to breathe ? Suppose the same condition existed in the case of water, wood, coal, land, food. Suppose, iu the case of money, a small minority of the world's peo? ple, by thrift, cunning, by fraud, by combines, lawful or unlawful should control the money supply of the world and bring stat vation to millions. Should the government refrain from measures ot relief for fear of depre elating the monopolist's dollar ? In any event be would have enough and to spare. Is it a good thing for men to hoard and continue to heap up riches more than they need, while millions are suffering for the necee 88aries of life ? Will the twentieth century continue this state of things or will there be a change ? We wait and wonder.-National Intel ligencer. Providence Journal : William M Evana, who passed bis 8?tb birthday on Sunday, bas had a remarkable ca? reer. He is said to be tbe only law? yer who ever secured a single fee of half a million dollars, though that is not tbe most interesting fact to bis long history. He defended President Johnson at tbe time of the impeach? ment charges, helped seat President Hayes in tbe executive chair, he was counsel for Beecher in the Tilton case, be represented the United States in tbe Alabama claims, be was secretary of state under Hayes, and in bis la-er years be entered the senate from New York state Ie i* pathetic to r- ad nf bim now; blind and feeble, confined to bis bed for weeks at time and uncon? cerned in tbe afiiitft of the world about bim Bat doubtlfs? h?? has bad a? mocb enjoyment in bi* long career as most men, and certainly be has bad bis share of reputation and honors Moving the Lights. The great naphtha torches, -with their flaring flame, seen in the street where men are at work at night, always attract attention. They are most striking, however, when seen moving. In laying asphalt pavement, as load after load of asphalt for the first layer is dumped to be spread upon the roadway, the naph? tha torches are moved along to light the work. They aro carried on wheel? barrows. It may be that a lighted torch is brough fc up in this manner from a distance o:' half a block. It is not the greatest spectacle in the world, but it is certainly a curious and interesting sight to see a man wheeling ene of these torches along the sidewalk, with anoth? er man walking beside the barrow and holding the pipe to steady it, while all the time the two foot flame is flaring out at right angles with the pipo from under its hood above.-New York Sun. The Prayer Fitted. At a church in Lenox last summer the pulpit was supplied by an assistant clergyman. One Sunday in the course of his sermon this minister told how a man had amassed a large amount of money simply by prayer, going on to ' give the incidents of the case. A titter ran through the congregation when the minister, after dwelling on the fact that prayer alone had brought about this man's fortune, placed his hands togeth? er and, looking upward in a very prayer ! ful attitude, said, "Lord, teach us how to pray!"-Troy Times. An Expert Opinion. Tomtom-That was a funny experi? ence of Dr. Pillbox. When Jingo's safe got out o:i order, he called the doctor in to examine it. Buzzfuzz-What did Pillbox say? Tomtom-Why, he said its system was all run down and that it needed change.-N?w York World. sheridan and tho ?Joice. . Sheridan, himself a brilliant orator as well as a shrewd observer, was one day asked how it was he got on so well in the house of commons "Well," he said, "I soon found out that the major- ' ity were fools, but all loved a joke, and I determined to give them what they liked. " The great advantage of a joke is that it puts the speaker at once on good terms with his audience. Hence Cicero recommends it for an exordium. A common way of winning the good will of an audience is flattery. When the Jews brought down the orator Ter? tulias to accuse Paul, Tertullus began his speech with flattery of King Agrip? pa, "Since by thee we enjoy," and so on. Another way, a subtle form of flat? tery, is to describe yourself as a native of the same place or comity as those you are addressing. The forensic formu? la, the fustian apostrophe to the 12 "in? telligent and patriotic and high minded men" whom the rhetorical Bnzfuz sees before him, is played out, but it has its modern equivalents.-Westminster Re? view..
