He refused to attend, alleging that business
required his attention in the court at WASH
ington.
The National Republican Committee in
the meantime forwarded $500 to Columbia,
to pay the fines imposed upon the members
of the Returning Board by the Supreme
Court.
On Tuesday the programme ordered by
Grant was carried out. The federal military,
under command of General Ruger, took los.
session of the State House. The eight Dem
ocratic members elect from Edgefield and
Laurens counties, who were counted out by
the Returning Board, but to whom the Su-
preme Court had given certificates of cleo
ton, were refused admission. The other
Democratic members, Ga in number, then re.
fused TO go in, and issued protest against
the unlawful and revolutionary proceedings.
The absence Of the Democratic members left
tic House with only So members-54 ne
groes and 4 whites, A constitutional quo
rum is G3. Notwithstanding this deficiency,
the Republicans organized by the selection
CT a speaker and clerk. The Democratic
Legis iature, GA in number, holding creden-

by clecting Gen. w. II. Wallace Speaker.
When the roll was called, Republican men,

in with the Democrats. A colored repre-
sentative also left the bayonet House and
cast in his fortunes with the lawfully elected
members. Sixty-six members, three more
than II majority of the whole House, were
thus present.
After fully organizing, message was sent
to the Senate, informing them that the House
was ready for business. A committee was
appointed to wait on the Secretary of State
and demand that he deliver TO the House tie

THE CHIEF CRIMrNAL.-Esery Egeninq
published at Wilmington, Del, comments
upon the injury to business, not only in the
South but also in the North, and charges
the trouble upon Zach Chandler, as the in
stigator and upholder of the conspiracy to
rob the Southern States of their constitu.
tional rights. 1t says;
We mark now the man whom the Amer
lean people will pillory in infamy for all this
trouble, and that man is Zachariah Chandler,
whom the Republicans of Michigan kicked
out OF the Senate, and whom Grant called to
his Cabinet simply to show his contempt for
reformers. Chandeliers brain conceived this
scheme to make President as Kellogg was
made Governor, and it is his will which
has kept the conspirators up to the mark
He has guilty accomplices, but let no one
forget when the day of condemnation con es
that Chandler is the chief criminal Let
business men remember that it is Zach Chan
dler who is responsible for the unsettement
of values and paralysis CT business, of which
they are now complaining"

DRIFTWOOD.

The stream of Republican politics Is
now clear of much Presidential driftwood
The Cincinnati Convention met and Sc
lected Hayes, of Ohio, and Wheeler, of
New York, as their representatives for
the coming campaign. Now that the
Republicans have made choice, wonder
how those disappointed aspirants feel in
body and soul? Glad that the blur-eyed,
blatant, bloody shirt Blaine was for ed to
trail in the dust his supercilious preten-
tons. Glad that the old mar-plot, Nor
ton, was robbed of an exalted opportu-
nifty to strike the fangs of his enve n
omed hate deep down into the bosom of
Southern forbearance. Glad that Grant 8
pet pea cock, Cenkling, had his gaudy
feathers besmeared in the mire of an
Inflated political ambition. Glad that the
Republican party failed to set the seal
Of approval upon Bristow's internal rev.
enue reformatory schemes aud kicked
him and his aspirations out in the cold.
What a wreck of earthly hopes
Blaine, Morton, COnkIing and BristOw,
after all their flibustering schemes and
bold endeavors, their spirits wander dis
contented in the land of dreams.
Seeing that there was no chance of sue
cess for any one of the quartette, each
one determined that his infaence should
net be given to the other, hence they
agreed that the mantle of victory should
fall to the lot of one whose compare
lively unnational name had never figured
as conspicuously as theirs in the current
antagoHisms of the times. Hayes was the
Republican "Ggeat Unknown" he, the
white horseman, whose plume distanced
his more noisy and distinguished COM
petitors. Mediocrity has once again won
Iaurels that were almost within the reach
Of those of more shining abilities. Such
is politics.

LET the people of Hardeman county
look around for the best men to repre-
sent her interests in tho next State AS
sembly. We have had able and discreet
man in the past, and now it is in order
to provide for the future by selecting
men who are not accustomed to crawl
along the low, narrow road of personal
interests, but men who sare fitted by
nature and experience to look at ques-
tiOns of public policy from an elevated
standpoint. We need men of olden
time makeup. Men who will
adorn office and not degrade it.
Legislative fitness is not to be found
clothed alone in broadcloth. There
are many men of plain attire ana re-
served manners who have clear heads
and sound hearts, just the very requ;-
sites for wholesome legislation: There
are questions to be considered by the
coming Legislature that will demand the
steadiest nerve, the clearest head and the
purest heart. We have many such mer
and the interests of the State bid them
come to the front
God give US men a time like this de
mandS
Strong minds, great hearts, true faith
and ready hands
Men whom the lust of Office does not kill
Men whom the spoils of Office can moi
buy;
Men who possess opinions and a will;
Men who have honor; men who viii not
lie;
Men who can stand before demagogue
And damn his treacherOus batteries with
cut shrinking.
Tall men, sun-crOwned, who live abov,
the fog
In public duty, and in private thinking
For while the rabbIe, in their thumb
worn cTeeds,
Their large professions and their littl
deeds,
Mingle in selfish strife, 10! Freedom
weeps,
Wrong rules the land, and waiting Jus
tice sleeps.

CULTIVATED BRAIN POWER
NEEDED IN FARMING.

By throw of the dice or a mere streak
of luck man may realize great wealth.
And men may even blunder into a for
tune through some venturesome mercan-
tile hazard, but when he comes to farm
ing he n ust plant and plod for success,
he requires mental equipoise, multitude
of consecutive decisions, excellent judg-
ment-nicer and more delicate scales
than are used in weighing iron and salt
The whole farming community should
be aroused to ths pressing Importance of
reading and a thorough study of their
profession. Cultivated handiwork carries
with it charmed success. Mans mere
labor is only brute strength but when a
strong brain-force is brought to bear
upon it you may expect to reap a rich
harvest of grand results. When We con-
slider how fully Natural Science enters
into the questions of farm work, how
ne cessary it is that farmers should study
and investigate for Themselves. His ami
mails grow and fatteu in accordance
with the laws of animal chemistry. His
varied crops sprout, deveIOpe and mature
in obedience to the exact economy of
vegetable chemistry. Each blight or
scourge, the insects which destroy vege-
tables and the diseases which deoi-
mate his stock are all most interesting
subjects for close scientific investigation
Breeding and the subtle natural laws
which transmit traits and qualities in
animals are prime objects of intelligent,
practical inquiry.
The farmer should aim to inaugurate
new era in farm labor. Intelligize it.
The wider the general understanding
and the more liberal the educational
advantages possessed and appreciated by
the farmer, the more successful and the
safer will be his occupation. He will
thereby be furnished with means by
which to elevate himself to = position
where his work will receive the merited
appreciation it so justly deserves. Dull
axes and Indifferent blowing are the
farmers worst enemies. Bright, sharp
weapons mean good work They run
parallel with success.

THE CRUSHING COST OF
CREDIT.

This has been the bane of the South
and West It has withered every de-
partment of enterprise, and Slapped the
energies of the laboring classes. That
we do not produce enough of what we
eat and wear, and buy too much on
credit,are some of the principal sources of
our continual poverty and want of pros
psrity.
In the South the sll-cotton policy has
forced the planters to buy bacon, cora,
hay, -four, implements, etc, at ruinous
rates, and when their crop is sold it Is
shingled with such an enormous amount
of interest and charges, that the prOdu-
GERS return home without a cent in
their pockets to carry them through
the winter ad coming spring 1t is
high time for the farming community to
arouse themselves from this fatal policy.
The Patrons Of Husbandry, we are glad
to know, have thus far for the good OF
the country insugurated wholesome
revolution in this regard.
More people are selling and buying
for cash now than at any previous period
in the history of the West. The Patrons

PARTY CANCELLATION

The Northern Democrats are uavield-
cOatractionists. The Western and South
ern Democrats are unyielding anti-con-
tractionists. This will be the issue pre-
scented in the ST Louis Convention.
There is much danger to the party
wrapped up in this question. The East,
under the leadership of Tilden, will take
no step backward on this line of policy
The money legions of Wall street will be
implacable and determined. On the
other hand, Ohio, Indiana and other
States are equally firm in adh ering to
their opposition to the National Bank
ing system and in demanding the repeal
of the Resumption Act.
What can, what shall be done to rob
this storm-cloud of its fury2 It would
be disgrace to our party and would
prove to be a dire sacrifice of momentous
interests, if our representative men in
the St. Louis Convention should not be
able to effect the harmonizing of these
discordant elements. Let extremists be
hidden to retire and in their place allow
conservatives to direct the deliberations
1t may be proper to throw over. be ard the
prominent champions Of these two re-
spective olicies, Tilden on the one side
and Hendricks en- the other,a and center our
strength upon such man as Hancock
We cannot afford to sacrifice the chanc e
of victory at the behest of any particu-
lar phase of the money question. The
country in all its vast and varied N oral
and material interests demands that the
present Republican rule shall give way to
a purer and safe r federal administration
Men are nothing in the presence of such
peril as threatens our institutions. Par
ty sectionalism should never be permitted
to impede the march of the National
Democracy in wrestling the reins of the
Government out of the hands of those
who have prostituted federal legislation
to the basest purposes. May some Mo
ses lead US out of the wilderness into tn .
land of an assured success. Let unity
prevail, then we may expect to see the
sunlight of glorious triumph CLEAN all
along the forefront of our line In the
coming presidential campaign. If we
fail, however, by reason of disintegrating
differences, to make the strongest poss-
ible nomination, we will prove ourselves
unworthy to hold the helm of State.

TOO NITRO-GLYCERINE.

Too long already has the two-tbird rule
controlled the action of Democratic
conventions. This rule requires a can
didate to receive two-shirds of the votes
cast in the convention before he can
be nominated.
This requirement has played havoc
with the prospects of many distinguish
ed men and has crippled the Democratic
party in many campaigns. 1t was we'll
enough in anti-bellum days, when the
South needed a break-water of defence
against tie sectional domination of the
Northern wing of the National Demo
Osratic sparty, but, now, that this no
longer exists, there is no reason why
the rule should exist Were the truth
knswn, it would be seen hat the
enforcement of this rule directly led to
the election of Lincoln. 1t caused a
rupture in the Charleston Convention in
1860, where Douglas had a majority, and
finally disrupted the Baltimore Conven-
ton and forced the Southern delegation
to withdraw. This action eventuated in
two Democratic candidates and gave
Lincoln the election. Now that the in
stitution it was created to defend has
passed away, let the rule itself be res
cinded
There are many eminent men who can
get majority vote but not two-third' s.
Why compel them to be sacrificed and
force upon the party some comparatively
unknown person. We have to enter
the coming campaign with strong men
to represent Us, and hence we should
not allow so dangerous bOmb-shen to
explode in our councils, and thus, prob
ably, repeat the disasters OF the past
Consign this rule to the tomb of the
Capulets.
