THE SOUTH CAROLINA
PLAN.

A white native of South Carolina
has communicated to the New York
Tribune a stirring description of the
condition of that State since the cam
paign commenced, which sheds food
of light upon the so-called South
Carolina plan by which the Confed-
crates and White-Liners propose to
overcome the Republican majority,
and carry the Ststc for Tilden and
Wade Hampton. His letter is so long
that we have not room for it entire,
and the most that we can do is to re-
produce the spirit Of it, and give few
of its salient points.
Only four short months ago perfect
quiet reigned in South Carolina. An
honest reform Governor was in power.
From the very day that he was in
stalled, Gov. Chamberlain carried out
thorough reforms. His Administra-
tion was entirely impartial. He
checked the depredations of the Legis-
lature. He removed corrupt officers
without fear or favor, and placed good
men in their positions. He reduced
taxes and purified the courts. He
brought about Cancellation between
the races. In fact, he placed South
Carolina upon her feet, and apparent
Iy the people of South Carolina were
grateful to him. The negroes trusted
him. The honest Republicans sus-
tanned him. The old Southern aris-
tocracy dined and wined him, and
treated him to their hospitality. The
Democratic leaders assured him of
their support. The Democratic papers
promised to advocate his re-nOmina-
ton and reelection. All this was only
four months ago. Now Gov. Cham
berlain is denounced by every Demo-
cratic stump-spcakcr and every Demo-
cratic newspaper as the corruptest of
the corrupt and "a carpet-bagger of
the carpet-baggers," although the
Governor has changed in no particular
of his policy or his administration.
How was this effected? The change
began with the holding of the Demo-
cratic National Convention. The
Mississippi plan had previously work
ed well i'm overcoming the Republican
majority in that State, and, after the
Convention had made its nominations,
it was set down on the Democratic
programme that the Mississippi plan
should be put in operation all over the
South to solidify its vote for Tilden.
When this policy was made known,
the fire-eating and secession element
of South Carolina was elated with the
hope of Tilden's success. The mar
rator says:
A ray of hope dawned on them.
They heard of Ben Hill defending
Andersonville and Jefferson Davis in
the Congress of the United States.
They saw Southerners once more lift
Capital. They could hardly trust
their senses. And then they looked
around them; all the Southern States
were oncc HloIc DcHlOcIAIlc, except
South Carolina and Louisiana. These
States alone had Republican Cover
nors and negro Legislatures. They
alone had not their Stephenses, Cor
dons, Iamars, Hills, and Proctor
Knots in Congress. Then they re-
fiected on Mississippi-how her O,OOO
negro majority had been transformed
into 10000 Democratic majority by the
use Of the shotgun and revolver. 1t
WAS true that they had been relieved
from oppression; that their confessed
debt to their Reform Governor was yet

on it. Iowa corn! And that leads us
to say that statistics show the yield ol
corn per acre in Iowa is half bushel
over any other State. A fact worth
knowing.
Iowa raises one-fourth of the entire
crop of spring wheat raised in the
United States. Bear that in mind.
Just think of one kernel of wheat
producing IS stalks, sown the first
week in April and harvested June
10Th. Iowa wheat!
In grasses the Iowa collection is the
equal of any other State. The tall
grass growing SO abundantly on wet
ground and sloughs has been pointed
out as the very best Of material for
making the very finest print paper,
extensively inquired after by paper
manufacturers i'm the east. Take a
note of that, it may bring a paper mill
into your neighborhood. 1t would
take hundred mills to use all that
grows in Iowa.
We only intended this for short
notice of the agriculture of the Cen
tennial. We have gathered these
facts from Mr.. Joseph w. Fulton, the
Iowa farmer, from Jefferson county
who was the first applicant to repre-
sent Iowa's agricultural products
there. He is now the State Agent,
the State taking his collection from
his hands. He has just paid Iowa a
visit and gathered very extensive
collection of grains, grasses, seeds and
vegetables taking the choicest from
exhibitors at the State Fair, and says
he is satisfied he can makes the best
showing of any State in this line.
lie is entitled to great credit for his
foresight and perseverance in this
matter, for Iowa will gain more by
exhibiting her agricultural products
than all the other things combined.
Mr.. Fulton spoke in the most compli-
mentary terms of the exhibitors at the
State Fair in placing their articles
subject TO his selection. We hope the
State Commissioners will spare no
pains to present the agriculture of
Iowa in its best light. They are enti-
tied to the thanks of every Iowan for
their sagacity in this matter.
Iowa cattle will be on exhibition,
comprising two herds: that of Mrs.
Kimberly, of West Liberty, and one
selected by a committee of the Iowa
Fine Stock Association.
The soil of Iowa, selected from thir-
ty-five counties, to show it in all its
variety and wealth, is exhibited in
glass tubes, which are inches I'm
diameter and 6 feet in height; thus
showing the soil down 6 feet just as
taken from the ground. A man looks
at the soil, then at the stalks Of corn
eighteen feet high, and sees immedi-
ately how it is done.
We shall expect the Golden Age Of
Iowa to commence right after the
Centennial, for the showing of our
seeds and crops will make it selfevi-
dent that Iowa is the "Granary of the
World" and that every acre of her in
cxhaustable soil is worth from fifty to
one hundred dollars. If soil in the
east, six inches deep, is worth fifty
dollars an acre, what is soil in Iowa
worth from six to two hundred feet
deep? Come and see.-Stdte Register.

AN AUTUMN DAY.

Like a jewel golden trimmed;
Like chalice nectar-brimmed;
Like a strain of music low
Lost in some sweet long ago;
Like fairy story old
By the lips Of children told;
Like rune Of ancient bard;
Like missal glory starred
Comes upon her winsome way
This enchanting autumn day.
Ger the hills the sunlight sleeps;
Through the wales the shadow erecps;
On the rivers stately tides
Rich the silent splendor glidcs;
Where the bowery orchards be,
Perfumed breezes wander free;
Where the purple clusters shine
Through the net work of the vino,
Fragrant odors fill the air;
Beauty shineth everywhere.
While upon her joyous way
Comes the lovely autumn day.
By the roads neglected banks
Rise the sumac's serried ranks;
Ragged hedge Of thorn and bricr
Sudden flames with living fire;
From the hard unlovely sod
Springs the glancing golden rod;
Light the level sunbeams sift
Through the violet aster-drift;
All her spears in proud array,
Comes the hammered autumn day.
Lifts the forests lofty line,
Sceptered oak and solemn pine:
Shifting rainbow tints illumc
All the depths Of fronded gloom;
Through the vista'd aisles unroll
Sweeping robe and trailing stole
Where superbly on her way
Comes the royal autumn day.
Heart of mine, be glad and gay;
Wear thy festival array;
Sing thy song for gathered fruit;
Why shouldst thou alone be mute,
When the winds from sea to sea
Ring in chords of jubilee?
After waiting, after prayer,
After pain and toll and care,
After expectation long
Lo the bright fulfillments throng;
CLEAN the apples through the leaves;
Thickly stand the golden sheaves,
Earth Is ali ia sp,enio, drest,
Queenly fair, she sits 3 I rest,
While the deep delicious day
Dreams its happy life away.

A Rer Theory Of the NebHIae.-M
Plante has recently communicated TO
the French Academy of Science the
results of some experiments which may
lead, it is believed, TO a new theory for
the circumstances to which are due the
shiral forms of many of the nebulae.
The experiments consist in the exact
reproduction of these forms by the
combined action of electricity and
magnetism. Two copper electrodes of
a battery of - elements, being plunged
in water acidulated TO 10 with sui
phuric acid, the end of the positive
electrode is brought TO one pole of the
magnet. The cloud of metallic matter
carried from the eleetrode by the cur
rent at once assumes in the liquid a
gyratory spiral movement, of which
the general disposition strongly recalls
that of the nebuIae. The investigator
is proceeding with further experiments
in the light of this idea.

RemoraI Of Stains Wih HdgResia.-
Carbonate of magnesla- magnesia that
has been previously caleined is best
is dried in an oven and mixed with
sufficient DeDzine to form soft friable
mass. In this state it is put into a
wide-mouthed glass bottle, well stopp-
cred. and kept for use. 1t is spread
pretty thickly over the stains, and
rubbed well 10 and fro with the tip of
the finger. The small rolls of earthy
matter so formed are brushed off, and
more magnesia is laid on until the
benziBe has evaporated entirely Ma
terials that will bear washing are then
cleaned with water: on silks, alcohol
or benziDe should be used instead.
The process may be applied to textile
fabrics of every description, except
those containing very much wool, TO
which the magnesia adheres very ten
aciously. II may also be used for
stains, old or new, on all sorts of woods,
ivory, parchment, etc, without risk OF
injury. Ordinary writing ink is not
affected by it. but letter press ink
quickly dissolves, owing TO the fatty
matter in the ink.
