The Ku Klux Committee were in Sos

HIsroRIc ASAcuNoNIsMs-We are
quite shocked to find so grave and scho-
lnstic journal rs the Herald assuring lis
that it was ''the famous Bishop Berkely
who said that the battle Of Waterloo pnt
baclS the clock of progress half n
century" It wns not half century,
which is only fifty years, but sixty.two
years that this o'clock was put bnck, y
since Bishop Berkcly died in 1853, and
Waterloo was fought in 1916. Bishop
Berkely is not commonly thought to
have survived his burial, notwitlistsnd-
ing tho immaterinlism of bis philosophy.
Tho person who really made the admira-
BILE remark, 80 happily cited by the
Herald, was Bishop Land. who let it faH
in q conversation with Will I'M the Con-
queror, ut B,rkely Castle, shortly after
the determination Of Napoleon Bona
parte to marry the daughter OF Pope
Plus VII. in the futile hope, ms it
proved, OF reconciling the Emperor
Nicholas of Russia with the Reformed
Dutch Church OF Houston, in Texas.
Berkely Castle, wo mny add, shortly
afterwards passed by tho female line into
the possession of Cardinal Wolsey, who
established there famous school for
educating neglected grand mothers to
suck eggs. General Grant was for some.
time tutor in this academy.

Enterprise in the plan Of so,ohanging the

perty. qualification for the. Senate, SO
that he,Sepate might represent property
and the House humbefs: x
We do not agree with the Reporter in
its opinion that this plan would be as
easy Of accomplishment as the system of
cumulative voting. Nor do we admit
that it would be moro valuable. There
are. certain feelings existing in the. mass
OF the community, on the subject OF the
rights and claims OF property, as opposed
to the rights and claims Of person, which
would be aroused by the effort to carry
the principle that the Reporter would
seek TO establish. There would bo is-
sues raised. Questions would be brought
mp that are yet unsettled. In our judg-
ment, the cumulative system OF voting act.
ing upon persons, and recognizing the per,
sonRl vote, practically secures, in fair
union and just proportion, that very
representation OF both persons and pro-
perty which the Reporter aims at in lis
scheme. Better, in our Wow, is it to
have both persons and property repre-
sented alike in the Senate and the House,
than to- have property alone represented
in the Senate, and numbers alone in tho
House.
Rightly understood. it will be found
that, in its practical working, proper
tional representation can be used to se-
cure representation alike for INTERESTS
and EuHDEka. It enables q people to
realiza, in this tentdry, what has long
been the dream OF the earnest legislator.

Our contemporary OF the Enurensville
Herald, prononnces in favor of the sys.
tenn OF cumulative voting. It believes
that In the up-country, the Democratic
element will ere long be in the ascen-
dancy. But, nevertheless. as the plan
proposed is calculated to do good to the
State in general, and as it embraces
a principle that lies at the foundation of
free government, che Herald gives it's
support to the measure. 1t says:
SIN word, this system, if carried into
effect, will apportion the representation
in accordance with the strength of the
opposing parties. We furthermore be-.
lieve that. in securing to each party a
proper representation. it will tend to
soften the bitter animosity that now ex-
ists between the two political factions.
Believing the plan to be founded in wis
dom and justice, We give it our support,
and hope it will prevail" h

and by confession infringes the great
Republican doctrine of "no distinction

on the ground that Smith is negro,
and the policy Of the Government to-
ward his race is to grant them privileges
and exemptions that are not extended to
the white race. The order means this
and nothing less, and in what an aspect
does it present the President of the
United States and this great American

Republican. have the white men of the
North to say to this public proclamation
OF the President that the negro is more

'.rhe first lot of peaches this season,
IN this market, came in last week from
South Carolina. They were in rather
poor condition; considering which, they
brought very high prices; there were
ten ordinary crates, which sold from
S!3 for first to Sc fer last selections.
Since then we have had several lots from
Georgia. very few, however, boing in
even fair condition. One Of the first
lots from Carolina. coming in a partition
chest, sold at $50. Not lore than three
or four touching each other this way,
they arrive in better condition than in
ordinary crates. Tho prospects ia Dola-

The Augusta Chronicle snys:

peaches from Aiken---a suburb OF An

vessel every tWcnty-tour hours. the mon
cy being placed in the hands of the purscr
OF the vessel, who had instructions to pay
the pot or amount OF money over to the
person who had guessed the closest Us to
the number Of miles the vessel had travel
ed within Il given number of hours. Each
person who put up ten dollars wrote on
u Slip OF paper the number OF miles the
vessel had travelled, placed il in m envel
ope and sealed it, Several pools had
been lost and won, but Sandy Bowers
failed every time; so he concluded to
play his party 'Washoc trick" He sur
repttiousy obtained 1.-THE car of the
chief engineer of the vessel and slipping
Il twenty into his hand conlidcntially
asked him to tell him the true number Of
miles the vessel had travelled within the
last twcnty-tour hours, to which the en-
ginecr agreed, but strictly in cor tidencc.

but the folks on the ship will suspect us
