Wool GROWING AND SHEEP RAISING
The long depression Of the wool grow
ing interests has largely diminished the
production Of wool in the last two or
three years Tens Of thousands Of old
sheep have been slaughtered for their
pelts and tallow, while bat few lambs
have been reared. This course will be
continued until the numb of sheep is
insufficient 10 produce the amount Of
wool required for our wants; then the
price Of wool will go up, and the breed
ing Of sheep again commence. 10 the
N -antime, the wise farmer will get nd
of all his old decrepid and diseased
sheep. He will keep 30 animal that
will not live and thrive on bay IN win

We presume that the same condition
of things exists in every county In the
State. The cost of our local admins
tration is trebled and quadrupled; we
are overrun by officials of all sorts and
sizes all that the Radicals may MI their
pockets and grow fat.
The Radicals are, in truth, as much
the enemies of the frugal working man
as they are the enemies Of decency and
good order Take Congressman Bowen
and Governor Scott as specimens, They
are trusted by tleir party. No Radi-
cal hand is lifted against them. But
where is the respectable white man who
would allow either the Congressman or
the Governor to cross his threshold?

these men. They can be made to vince

Hard Money for the PeopIe.

The time is arriving when the people
of this country will. be in position to
decide, irrespective of other political
questions, upon amatter nearer to their
individual and thenational welfare than
all the rest The point is whether spe-
Gle payment shall be resumed and
gold and silver coin of the United
States be substituted in place of the
present deprecated greenbacks and pos
tai currency
The living issues which divide the
two great existing parties are chiefly
financial and economical. The former
adherents of the Republican party, who
joined and clung to it in order to ena-
BILE it to carry out the special purposes
for which it was organized, are now left
free to consider whether it has policy
in regard to these present issues which
entities it to their continued support.
Parties arise, from time to time, in all
countries, for the ful6llment of certain
missions. Having succeeded in what
they set out to accomplish, they become
worthless their ability to supply the
next prevailing want proves equal to
their special aptitude for the previous
work. When it becomes evident to the
masses of the Republican party that

A Sad Circumstance.

There is some little talk about cir
cumstance which happened the other
day to an exalted Washington official.
1t seems to be my duty to record it. I
will call the sufferer General George.
Belding, for the sake of convenience.
He is said to be right good man, but
was always liberal in his views and a
very sociable sort Of person. He used
to 90 about a good deal, and among
other places he used to go up to So
crates, on the Hudson River Railroad,
every now and then, and stay all night
at hotel kept by Mr. and Mrs. Wag-
uer, In due time he fell in love with
a refined and cultivated young lady in
Brooklyn, and Immediately put himself
upon his very best behavior. In the
course of six months she married him,
and gave it as her opinion that she was
marrying perfection itself. The young
couple were very happy. They began
to frisk around and enjoy the honey
moon. Presently they ran upto Socrates
and camped at Mr.. Wagners hotel. In
the evening George was sitting on a
sofa in the parlor, with his erM around
his brides shoulders, when Mrs. Wag-
ner entered. She struck an attitude,
She began to get angry in a minute.
Then she said Look here, my fine
fellow, I've had as much of this as I'm
going to stand: There you are down
on that register as General George
Belding and lady again. You've done
that thing sixteen times in eighteen
months, and you've fetched fresh troll
.lop along every time Young woman

faced huzzy !" 1t was a very sad
circumstance. Now wasn't it ?-Mars

protective tariffs local self-government
against Capitalization, and just parti-
tion Of power among the three depart
ments Of the Government against Con-
gressional usurpatioa,. It's work is to
oppose itself to thelcorruption and
abuse ior which the present party is re-
sponsible. This party has stood Gap
manfully for the rights of the Southern
whites. 1t has fought their battles over
and over again It has lost victories
because of its Southern sympathies, And
this is the party that the intelligence,
worth and substance Of the South are
called upon to discard We know that
the South must and should look out for
herself. We acknowledge that there is
no wisdom in sentimentally clinging to
obsolete notions, or in adhoring to effete
political organizations. But, in our
Judgment. the time has not yet come for
lis Of the South to discard our Dsmo-
cratic alliance. That time may or may
not come in the future. For the present,
let us Of the South preserve our unity,
remain true to our convictions, watch,
labor and wait. So far, at least, as the
Democracy of South Carolina is con-
cerned, we feel assured that it. will res
olutely close its ears to the blandish-
ments Of the conservative Republican
movement, and, avoiding this entang-
ling alliance, will hold itself aloof from
the premature endorsement of an unite
veloped and immature party movement,
VIII ose tactics have yettopass the ordeal
Of an ampler examination and keener
criticism than it has yet possible to
give to them. In politics, as i'll war, to
make a blunder is almost to commit a
crime.

Even when the Constitution of the Uni.
ted States was adopted, and when the
great slave States, like Virginia, were
anxious to stop the traffic, it was de-
feated by the criminal greed and ava
rice of New England, whose ships were
engaged in bringing them here, united
to the supposed interests of the new
Southern States, like South Carolina
and Georgia, which demanded cheap
labor to develop their resources. The
traffic, therefore, had further lease of
twenty years, an interval which was
most industriously improved.
To the presence Of these antagonistic
races upon the same soil we owe all the
horrors and 'calamities of the late civil
war. With that .frightful lesson so re-
Gently before US, it might be supposed
thatwe would not be inclined to encour-
age the immigration. of another for
eign race as incapable of mingling with
US as the negro. But, even although
fools are Said, to learn by experience,
there are many people in the United
States who do not. They encourage
the. Chinese emigration to the Pacific
coast, which, in the wav ii is carried
on, is but-little, if any, better than the
African slave trade. They favor it
upon the same grounds that it will
reduce the price of labor-reduce that
which already is not half as we'll remu-
nerated as it ought to be for theinter-
ests of society. The four hundred mil
lion of Chinese will require but little
pressing to divide with us the heritage,
if not the supremacy, on our Western
coast. The States that are growing up

MuRDER.-From passengers arriving
in this city last evening, we leard that
white man named Griffin was killed
at Ills place of business at Whitakers
Turn Out, on the Wilmington and Wei
don Railroad, yesterday morning. 1t
would seem that q party of four ne
groes, acting under authority of a war
rantissuedb by another negro, who claim
ed to be magistrate, attempted to az
rest Mr.. Griffin, who, refusing to &c
knowledge the validity of the warrant,
was shot dead by them in his own store.
The negroes then took to the woods,
and, at last accounts, had not been
arrestcd.-Wilmington Journal.
