been the uniform course OF General Harrison,

SOUTH CAROLINA.

Mr. CALHous-The friends of this gentleman IN
Charleston being DESTROYS Of manifestng their con-
tinued confidence in his political principles ana the
"unbendng irmness and integrity with which they
are maintained" recently invited him to public DIN
ner 10 be given in that city the occasion OF bis
passing through his way to Washington. Mr..
Calhoun in his reply regrets that circumstances will
not permit his acceptance Of the invitation Of his
friends although is with reluctance that he declines
H. The following is the portion Of his letter which
relates to general topics.
In saving that the republican party Of Charleston
have been discouraged by the changed aspect OF
the political horizon, you have stated no moro man
what had anticipated, Those who look to personal
party considerations, may change with the tide OF
popularity but the is the with those VINO
chiefly regard principles and country. IL Is when the
tide is adsersewhen the loose and weak are floating

Is her pride and glory not to he governed by private or
selfish considerations; where the interest of the coun
try is involved but take her stand immoyeaby on
principles above all personal or party feeling, and
without regard TO the course that may be taken by
others As she has always acted, so, doubt not, she
will on the present occasion II she should be alone,
as on another memorable occasion, she will feel con-
dcnt her weight into the scale that her principles
ay point to, resolutey and IL possible, more SO,
than il backed by the rest Of the Union
| Principles honestly and firmly maintained, are al
most certain in the end 10 triumph; but, if in some
cases such should not be the fact may be assured
that but with the failure of principles, the whole
scheme of our admirable system of government must
fail 1t utterly impossible for the supersructare to
stand on any other foundation, except the old Repub-
lican State Rights principles in their fullest extent
understood in the purest days of the party And let
me add, that, it the party holding principles
and policy should succeed in the present contest the

South CAROLINA SENATOR. As Mr.. Calhouns
term of service United States Senator, will expire
on the 4th Of March next, the ensuing Legislature
will, of course, have to fill the vacancy. Some doubt
has been expressed, whether Mr.. Calhoun will con-
sent to continue longer in public life. If this surmise
is well founded, there will, doubtless be number of
candidates for the vacancy have host Of fierce
patriots, ambitious Of serving the State in any capa-
city to which honor and emolument are attached

Facts-The sales to the Both Sept, 1887, amounted
10 1882 260 acres.
The T4skaloosa officers reported 3, i49 206

believed that there is moi sTceeding ten honsand
acres III for cuiiipation"the average value being
cents per acre, or in all $i57 465
Facts-To the 3oth Sept, ,O65, 100 acres had been
sold, producing 81 1920 and leaving 2,0s40 900
acres unsod.
The Sparta officers reported $500, 735 unsold
being in market from 1928 to l627-6S7 81 acres
timated to be worth 81 25 per acre, and isl536i
unfit the general average being 40 cents per acre.
Facts.--To the Both Sept, 1887, 35l 300 acres had
been sold.
No change il is thought, has been made in the
Huntsville or Sparta Districts. A portion has been
taken from the Cahaba District and another from the
Tuskaloosa Districts, and small portion added to the
last District The Demopois District has been Great
ed out Of the portions taken from the Cahaba, Tuska
loosa and St Stephens Districts, and part of the
Choctaw cesson Of 1880 In this District 1854,
900 were sold from 1888 Both Sept, 1887 but what
proportion Of this amount subject to sale at the
old offices on the Both June 1928 it is impossible to
estimate.
These comparisons of predictions, with results will
not only show the reliance which is to be placed upon
estimates even by those best qualified to make them,
10 the raiue of the public domain, but will also
show that the facts of land having been in market for
many years, is evidence that they will not be
sought forwith avidity the country becomes set
tied
While upon this subject | trust that you will agree
will in the hope that correspondent who pos
the of doing so, will inform us what are
the minimum prices fixed by the different States upon
the lands granted them by Congress for canals roads
colleges, &c. for | am under the impression that
these minimums have varied from SO to SIT per acre.
thus showing that although many Of those States
yearly memoralize Congress for reduction of the
price of the public lands yet when those lands become
their own property, the minimum is increased instead
Of being essened.
If these estimates should call the attention of any
person qualified to 90 with the investigation to a
consideration of the subject, or be the of pro-
curing accurate statements Of the actual working OF
the present land SYSTEM shall be than repaid for
the trouble have been at in making them.
