The bill to elect members to a Southern Congress-
and also to provide for State Convention, passed
both Houses of the South Carolina Legislature last
week, and the new Governor had grand salute of
one hundred guns fred on the 19th in honor of the
passage of the Convention bill On the fourth ballot
for United States Senator, R. B. RHETT was chosen,
he having received 81 votes HAMMOND, 46; scatter
ing 10.
We have the utmost respect for the heightened
feelings and impulsve character of our chivalrous
neighbors, but it does that every and then
they WILL to familiar expression, "run things
in, the ground" Mr.. RHETT is, no doubt, very
good man, has oun sUay but the idea of his being
chosen to bear the mantle of JOHN C. CALHOUN, is
simply ridiculous He has no earthly claims to that
high honor but talk in which he did Herod He
rod. However much men in any section of the coun-
try might have differed from Mr.. CALHoUN's views,
they were still bound to respect them, and to feel
that they the conclusions of cool head and a
farreaehing intellect; and disunion nullif-
cation itself acquired odor of nationality and pa
triotism from the sanction of his great name and
spotless reputation. But we need not indicate the
difference in the present case. We will, however,
say what has struck US dozen times before,
that we are indebted to Mr.. RHErr's extravagant
course for the total back out in Georgia 1t used
by the opponents of resistance bug bear bright
en- the timid and alarm the cautious.
Sa-We have not before us the detailed proceed
ings of the N. c. Legislature for Friday and Satur-
day last. We learn, however, that little nothing
of any Importance has been done beyond the killing
of the bill for the relief of the Wilmington and Man
chester Railroad Company. We learn that it was
defeated by one vote On Saturday. 1t is barely pos
sible that something may yet be done for the Road
We sincerely hope 1t is said that the Company
is gaining ground, and the projects for its relief
course acquiring strength. After what has beer
done for other works its seems only act ofjustce
and fair play that this should receive some little
countenance.

Jenny Lind

The fair Swede passed through this place on Sum
day last, accompanied by the Incompatible BARNUM
and thirty assistant performers. She is adver
tised to give two concerts in Charleston, one on
Thursday the 26th inst, and another on Saturday,
the Goth inst. The night of Sunday was one of the
most stormy which we have ever witnessed, and some
slight fears are entertained for the safety of the boat
(the Gladiator, Capt SMTH) though, we hope, with
out any foundation. Miss LIND is, no doubt. at the
present moment in Charleston, having chvalrous
speech made to her, and responding in the most
charming mosaic work of English and Scandinavian
A charming lady JENNY, with unequalled power
over the human heart and-purse.
P.S: Since the above lines penned, we have
been conversing with several of our citizens and find
that considerable anxiety prevails regarding the fate
of the Gladiator as she had some two hundred souls
on board. Nothing has as yet been heard from her
beyond vague rumor, for which there appears to be
no sort of foundation oIthe effect that she had gone
ashore on Cape Roman. We still adhere to the be-
lief that she is all safe, and will be heard from to-

THE CENSUS OF PHILADELPHIA.-At length we
have the full returns of the of Philadelphia
and they show population of 4O6, 358 The increase
of the population in the last ten years-in 1910 it
was 258,037-is by these tables shown to be 49,
221, Or between fftyseuen and tty-eght per cent;
certainly very handsome increase. 1t is at the rate
of six per cent per annum. Philadelphia is perhaps
the sixth city in the world in point of population,
and has nearly as many inhabitants as St. Peters
burg had in 1910, (476Ooo,) which is the fourth CT
ty in Europe in population. The following is the
recapitula alton.

The 6 Duke's'' Room at walmer Castle.

This sanctum is a room of but moderate sze with
out ornament, and very plainly and scanty furnish
ed, but neat, accurate and orderly in arrangement
altogether bearing very much the appearance Of the
single room OF military secretary in garrison On
the right is ordinary iron camp bedstead, with
single horse hair mattrass upon 1t and thereon,
whatever be the season. without curtains any par
aphernalia about it, the Iron Duke" rests when at
Walmer. Over the bedstead is a small collection Of
books, which is seen on rapid glance to have been
selected for use the best English writers of Annes
"Augustan age" both in poetry and prose; few
recent histories and biographies; some French me-
moirs with military reports, official publications,
and parliamentary papers, form the little library
In the centre of the room is mahogany table, well
inkstained, at which, for two or three hours in the
day. the master of this takes his place and plies
his pen Near it is a more portable one, so contriv-
ed to be used for reading writing while in bed
These, with two three chairs, comprise the con-
tents of the room, and sufficiently characteristic
of it's owner The window looks out upon the sea,
and door opens upon the ramparts-upon which,
few years ago, the duke never failed to be very
morning by six o'clock and there for an hour more
take his morning walk. The view from the RAM
parts, by the way, is most magnificent one from
the position of the CASTLE the prospect is unbroken
both south and north, while directly in front it is
only bounded by the French coast.

RICHMOND AND DANvILLE RoAD.-The stockhold-
ers of the Richmond and Danville Railroad Company
assembled in Richmond Oh the 18th instant
Among other matters considered that of a
connection of said Road with North Carolina. Mr..
N. J. Palmer of Milton, submitted series of resolu-
tons for branch Road to that town: and the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted:
ReSoired That w P. Tunstall President of the Road
and Hon Calvin Graves of North Carolina be appointed
apply in respectful to the Legislature of North
Danve Railroad with the Central Railroad of
MIR. David Chalmers of Halifax, was appointed
alternate to either of those gentlemen who might be
unable to attend to the commission; and the Board
of Directors authorized to pay their expenses.
Raleigh Standard. 2lSt inst
We must confess that this Virginia confidence, for
Virginia objects, reposed in the gentleman by whose
casting vote the famous North Carolina Railroad be-
come law seems, to our feeble dscernment little
ominous. We won't say another word lest we might
be denounced as factious. If permitted, we might
perhaps, venture to inquire with all due humility,
of course, what difference there would be between
the Central Road, in this proposed connection
be effected and the Danville and Charlotte Road q?
can see is the two millions of dollars which the State
gives for the Central Road In one case that of the
old Charlotte and Danyille charter the State would
have had her throat cut gratis but in the other she
will have the honor and glory of giving two millions
of dollars to have that delightful operation perform
ed. Great is Diana of the Ephesians, and also CAL
WIN GRAVES, of Caswell! We hope we will not be
bounced upon as rep,sdiutor. We do, indeed. We
repudiate the idea of reputation.
