on many farms are completely ruined,

A PLOT AGAINST GRRE1EY.-A Wash
ington correspondent OF the New York
Tribune mentions an estimate made by
an oficsholder in Washington, who is
ono OF the shrewdest observers of DO
litical events, and one whose Judgment
as to the future is received with respect
everywhere. giving the strength Of Mr..
Greeley before the Baltimore Convention
as follows:
.'He says that he has little doubt that
Mr.. Greeley will have 517 delegates out
OF the 724 on the first ballot, and that of
the delegates already chosen by the
several States, BIT are favorable to Gree
ley, and only thirteen against him, these
being from Oregon, Delaware and one
from West Virginia. He also says that
there is powerful effort making on the
part of come of the old hunkers of the
Democracy to defeat Greeley before the
Convention by coup d'etat, and circu-
lars in great numbers have been conf
IDENTIFY circulated for The purpose. The
scheme. as developed, is to secure the
States OF Arkansas, Georgia, Ohio, Illi-
nois, Texas and New Jersey, which, it is
held, would do much towards oontroll-
ing the Convention. The officer, how
ever, unhesitatingly admits that Mr..
Greeley will be nominated, and that the
contest in November will bo n very close
one."
Thus are the politicians making their
calculations and indulging their machi-
nations, but the fact is that the people
generally seem to be troubling them
selves little about the one or the other.
AS the New York Erpress says the peo-
pie have got it into their heads that
Greeley is their man, their candidate.
Once in every ten or twenty years the
people break loose on the Presidency,
and they are running loose now; and it
is not easy to see how they can be made,
either as Democrats or Republicans, to
run with "the machine" unless "the
machine" runs with them.

PLEASANT TRAVELLING BY THE WEATHER

Matters at Geneva.

The grand arbitration seems to be
destined to be always enveloped in o
cloud Of uncertainty. The probabilities
OF the success or failure Of the treaty are
about as fuotuating as those Of the wea-
ther given us each day by telegraph
from Washington. Just now. the treaty
stock is advancing. All the advices
from Geneva, London and Washington
concur in representing the prospects of
the contamination of the arbitration as
considerably frightened since the as
sembling of the court. Why this is so,
we are not informed. There seems to
US but one possible mode of preserving
the trenty, and that is by an adjourn
ment Of the court, in accordance with
the request of Great Britain, in order
that the slight differences between the
two Governments, with regard to the
supplemental treaty, may be arranged.
Hor Majesty's Government has repent
edly and emphatically declared that they
will not proceed with the arbitration
unless the claims for consequential da-
IMAGES are withdrawn.
AS matters now stand, these claims are
not withdrawn, and. of course, England
will not proceed with her argument.
With regard to the adjournment or post
ponement of the court, it is by no means
certain that it is within the power of the
arbitrators to grant it. The treaty fixes
specific time for the sitting of the
court. as also for the presentation of the
preliminary pleadings; and the natural
conclusion would seem to be that no au-
thority short of an agreement between
the high contracting powers themselves
would be sufficient to change or modify
their original contract. Our Govern
ment refuses to join England in the ap-
plioation for adjournment. being very
we'll content and prepared to proceed at
once. without any additional treaty.
Grant is reported as saying that he
has backed down to his bottom stand,
and will not bulge an inch farther, but
will leave the responsibility entirely with
England, whether the treaty shall oe
sustained or not. That all sounds very
well, and very dignifed, and self.com-
placent, but he and his administration
cannot escape the odium of their orr
ginal laundering attempt at chicanery,
which has been the sole obstacle in the
way OF the successful issue of the treaty
from the start.

GERMANY AND THE JEsUITs. The bill
which has been pending for some days
in the Prussian Parliament to deprive
the members Of the Society of Jesus of
the rights Of citizenship in that country,
was passed on yesterday. The Jesuits,
it appears, became first involved in this
trouble by having provoked the bitter
hostility Of Bismarck, in opposing GER
tain laws and opinions peculiarly agree-
able to him and distasteful to them. But
for the almost personal character of the
conflict which this circumstance occa-
stoned, it is believed that more careful
and patient deliberation OF the Difficult
ties at issue would have resulted, and a
different course been pursued. But,
under any circumstances, powerful and
popular as the premier may be. it would
seem that in progressive Germany and
this liberal age there could not well be,
with general approval, such banishments
and prescriptions Of Jesui:s as have
marked the records OF nearly all the
States of Europe in earlier times, and
which have only served to illustrate and
perpetuate the vitality Of the order.

UNJUST PuN1sHMENr.-The two free

UNJUST PUNIsHMENT.-The two freed
men, Meadows and johnson, are still in
Jail at this place, notwithstanding an
order of the United States Court that
they should be admitted to bail. Their
bail is ana has been ready ever since be-
fore their arrival here from the Charles
ton jail, yet they are still in prison.
These prisoners were arrested for alleged
connection with the Ku Klux, ON the
last day OF March last, and have been in
prison ever sinoe-part of the time in
Columbia and part in Charleston.
Now, as to the secret OF this unjust
confinement we think we know it. The
two negroes in question had the credit
OF uniformly voting the Democratic
ticket, thus exercising their new rights
as free citizens. As for their connection
with Ku Klux, 1t is base slander to
charge that there was ever such an or
ganization in the County. They should
be set at liberty. It is disgrace to the
authorities having control of the matter
to keep the said prisoners longer in con
fnement.
Since the above was put in type, O
letter has been handed to us, from which
we make the following extract. The
letter is written from Newberry. and is
from undoubted authority, yet for rea-
sons unnecessary to be made known, we
withhold the authors name. This letter
fixes the blame, in part, at least, for the
detention of the prisoners in question
nearer home than We had anticipated.
The public will read and Judge for them
selves whether such cruelty should be
tolerated without the severest repre-.
hension and punishment. When the
orders of United States Judge and a
United States Commissioner are set aside
or ignored by little tom.tit of jailor,
it would seem that our condition is de-
plorable in the extreme. The following
is the extract:
"The Commissioner (Runkle) tells me
that he sent an order Saturday, week
ago, to have the prisoners brought down
by Leahy, who was then at Lsurens;
that Leahy presented the order to the
jailor, but he would not give up the
prisoners. "-Laurenspille Herald.

The New York correspondent OF the
Philadelphia Ledger says: "The news
from Charleston, that Cuban privateer
is off that port, creates no surprise here,
where the circumstances of her fitting
out are we'll known in certain orioles.
The Cuban Junta, it is said, will have a
special meeting to receive Lieut.. Chau-
veaux, who is hourly expected with de-
spatches from the vessel. The expecta-
ton seems to be that this privateer will
not only worry Spanish merchantmen on
the coast OF Cuba, but also irritate the
Spanish Government itself as to make it
deny our claim to the surrender Of DR..
Houard, and thus increase the chances
of war with the two countries, the result
of which (the Junta deolare) would be
the independence of the island"

ferred with President Magrath. Whilst
he had been giving much attention and

he did not feel himself able to enter into

THE GRANT HEADQUARTERS.

Very little business was transacted at the Grant
Headquarters yesterday, and no letters or de-
spatches OF importance were received. Governor
Jewell Of Connecticut was present, directing the
proceedings, and expressed his opinion relative To
the charges OF fraud In North Carolina. He says n
the republicans had been defeated they would hayo
charged fraud, and now that the democrats are de-
feated they adopt the same tactics. 1t is an old
election dodge, practsed by both parties but never
goes for much with those who understand the n
and outs Of State election The increase OF 20. =
latiOn would, he thinks, account for the Increase OF
the number OF votes cast, and no evidence can 10
construed from this circumstance. His experience
OF elections Is that in country places there rarely

invariably confined to cities. He is satisfied that
