In the spring Of the second year a.
soQn rs the ground Is In order take off
the mound Of earth and cultivate as
In the first year. When the vines
begin to grow go over them and rub OF
all the buds but two; always leave
the best and never allow two canes to
grow out from the same eye. Some
do not rub of the third bud but allow
1t tn grow an inch or 30 and keep II
pInched back TO spur for the purpose
Of growing bearing canes In the fu-
tui'e. As the canes grow up tie them
to the trellis and when they have
grown about four feet high, check
them by pinching OF the leader; but
never disturb the later, for on these
the fruit Of the next season Is to grow.
In the fall, when IL comes time for
pruning, cut back the weakest OF
these two canes to three eyes to grow
the young canes for the next year; cut
the other main cane back to twelve
or fifteen eyes. This will leave from
four to eight laterals; cut them back to
two or three eyes according to their
size. This ends the second year.

THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEBT.

Mr.. H. H. kimpton, the New York
financial agent Of this State, arrived
here today for the purpose of sub
his official acts toa rigid ex-
animation. He denies the charge
that he has been guilty of malfeas.
ance in Office, and says that the accu-
sations of certain newspapers in New
York that the South Carolina debt
has been frauduleDtly increased by
him are false. He says that the total
Indebtedness of the State will not ex-
ceed $12,O00,0O0. He proposes to
have his accounts examined by com.
mittce of citizens and taxpayers.
Generals Wade Hampton, NJ. c. But:
Ter, NJ. W. Gary and Judge Porter, Of
Charleston, will be invited to assist in
the Investigations. Kimpton is very
bitter against the State officials,
whom he accuses of extravaganza
and Tmaladmimstratiou Of the State
finances. He says that owing to this
he was obliged to make ruiuous terms
with money-lendcrs to raise money
and had to hypothecate bonds with
out warrant of law for the purpose
This, however, he claims is a matter
for the officials to settle with the tax,
payers lie was merely the agent to
do US he was s,told. All that he seeks
is a vindicatien Of his own acts, and
not those of his employers. :

Cstacazy's Account Of Himself-How
the Russian Minister Blows his own
Horn. 49, =
Contributed to Every Saturday.

Contributed to Every Saturday. -,
AS the Grand Duke Alexis, during
his stay. in. tho United States, be.
comes virtually the guest Of these di.
plomatic personages. a word or two
concerning the Russian Minister and
his wife, may not be out of place in
this connection. Mr.. Catacazy is q
Greek by birth, and about fifty years
of age. He was formerly attached to
the Southern Legation in Washington
as Chief Secretary, and it was while
occupying that position that he form
ed the acquaintance of the French
lady who subsequently became his
wife. When he was accredited to
this country Us Minister Pfenipoten-
,tiary. some of the diplomatic ladies
in Washington refused, for reasons
that do not concern the public, to be
intimate with the family of the Min
lister. Smarting under this alleged
unkind tre, ,.tment, as it is said, he ex-
pressed his opinions, both by spoken
and written words, in such decided
terms that the President and his
Cabinet took up the gauntlet, and in
June last letter was addressed to
tho Russian Government requesting
tho recall of Mr.. Catacazy. When
that document reached St. Petersburg
it was duly read, but not formally re-
ceivcd, because of the absence in Ger
many Of the Prime Minister, who
was known to be o warm personal
friend of the Minister to Washington.
Months elapsed, and still Mr.. Catacazy
was not recalled, nor has he been
down 10 the present hour. In view
of the expected coming of the Prince,
the American Government concluded,
for the time boing, to forget it's difficulty
with Mr.. Catacazy, intending to insist
upon his recall Immediately after the
honors of the Prince have been con-
cluded, and he has returned to his ma
tive land. In the meantime, it is con-
fdentiy asserted that Mr.. Catacazy
will resign his position as Minister to
Washington Immediately after the
return Of the Prince, and thereby
render unnecessary any further ac-
tion on the part Of the American.
Wherever the fault
may lie, it is certainly unfortunate
that private difficulty should be the
cause of cndangering the harmony
which has so long existed between
the Russian and American Cabinets
