SENSIBLE, ADv1cE.-The following
sensible advice was given by the late
Prof. Maury to his son, then at school:
To the truly wise and good man, Office,
place, honors, distinctions are desirable
or welcome only as they increase bis
sphere of usefulness and enlarge his priv.
iiege of doing good. To win sucl, privi-
leges, ! hope will be the highest poiEt to-
wards which the ambition .; any nne of
my sons will ever he directed. | do not
know where their lot may oe cast. for
they are all to he tic artilicer, Of their
own fortune. But whatever it may be, l
hope they will let politics alone, seek to
be useful members Of the community in
which they live, and study the welfare of
the commonwealth TO which they belong.

The House committee did not go into an
examination of the vote for Governor
except in an incidental manner, apd
while the six Democrats are assured ot
Hampton's election, the three Republi.
cans seem to be equally assured of Cham.
berlan's election according to his adyices
from Washington. 49,.
THE HAYEs-MACKEY INTERVIEW.
Governor Chamberlain chuckled over
the annoyance occasioned among the
Democrats by Judge, Mackey's oficious
zeal in visiting Governor Hayes and ma
king professions and overtures which
have been published as coming from and
authorized by Hampton. He said that
while Governor Hampton had depied
these published reports, yet, nevertheless.
he could not divest' himself of the fact
that Mackey was the accredited bearer
of letter from, HIM to Hayes which, 10
itself, placed Hampton. in an awkward
position.
GOV. HAMproN's DISCLAIMER.
In this Connection Gov. Hampton is
very emphatic'in disclaiming all respon-
sibility for the views announced by Judge
T. ]. Mackcy in his interview with Mr..
Hayes. In the course of a conversation
with your correspondent this afternoon
he stated that Judge Mackey went to
Ohio on private business, and was not
sent by, him, nor authorized in any way
to speak for him or for the Democracy Of
South Carolina. The views he expressed
were his own, and General Hampton can
only account forthe misconception which
has arisen upon the .supposition that
Judge Mackey's declaration Of bis own
views were in some manner COMPOUNDED
with those he gave Rs coming from Hanp.

cTILDEN ELECTED, 81 .a
General Hampton said in conversation
that he has always believed that Tilden
vas fairly elected, hut has entertained
grave doubts as to whether he would be
allowed to take his seat, he. said:
"Our people desire peaceful, consti.
tutional solution Of these questions, and
we trust this willbe had. Peace is essen.
tial to US, and we of the South should
take no part in the, settlement Of the
Presidential question until called on to
do 80 by some Legitimate authority" -

HAMpToN's LETTER.-The Galveston
Me1cs (Dcnl.) does not regard Genera!
Hampton's letter to Governor Hayes in
the same light that most Democratic
Journals do. Its comments are as fol-
lows:
Hampton's letter to Hayes must be re-
garded AZ another fine stroke OF fpoIicy by
that master of political tact. 1t places
the cause of gond government in South
Carolina, which is still sadly mlsunder'
stood by many of Mr.. Hayes partl,s"n<,
in new and striking light before all III.
teligent Republicans who have been
mis!ed AS to the actual condition OF
things in that unhappy State and the
nature of the political conflict there.
This We suppose to have been its sole
purpose. a. the similar communication TO
Mr. Tiden saves General Hampton from
any possible suspicion of Il bargaiu, aud
such purpose. it is to he hoped, tie let
ter will na'rriaiiy sub-erve.

THE SENATORIAL QUESTION. u.
Another view taken by Chamberlain is
that. if Congress fails to act III the matter
before the 4th of March, the question as
to the legality of the State government
will come up tsquarely before the Senate
upon the application of Genera! Butler

THE PROCLAMATION PROGRAMME.
Under the influence of the sharp crit.
cislns in the Northern papers and advi-
ces from Washington. GOV. Chamberlain
seems to have abandoned the anti ipnted
programme of issuing proclamation
against Hampton and his government, as
| such a game would be too dangerous.
He now says that he does not lopk for
ward to any collisions or clashes Of au--
thoritY that would be serious, and that
all minor conflicts as to the p',asession Of
offices would find an easy and peaceful
solution in the courts. This il the first
time he has been known to trust any

e-RASSEoP?Ea FRIGHT.

The foolish furry alb ut grasshop-
pers has about suosided in the State,
and those who were disposed to he
paui:ky o have time to reflect on
the absardity of their actions. The
fact of the matter is that W. have not
been threatened with any serious
trouble, on the contrary W. never had
sucl, cheering prospects for an abund-
ant harvest. and at n time since the
State has been settled has there been
any way near the tiattering prospects
for good prices on surplus farm pro-
ducts. Nebraska, aud especially the
southern part Of The State, will make
many persons eyes enlarge with won
der this fall when her immense crops
move toward market. Aud the good
prices expected and which We have
every confidence will be received, will
enable many improvements Of IA sub.
stantial nature to be made that were
not even dreamed of last season. And
before our people will hardly realiz.
the fact the thousands of unoccupied
fertile acres will all have earnest in-
dustrious productive occupants. We
hear Of them in all directions, and they
are bound to come.-Ex.

Ex-Gov. Furuas adheles to his de
claration last fall, that a farmer can
I'd his fields Of grasshopper eggs and
young hoppers more easily than o:
crop OF weeds. He has had experience.
His plan Is frequent narrowing of the
e g infested patches and burning of
grass and ditching alter the Matching
OF eggs not destroyed by the harrow.
he says that he disposed Of all the
hoppers grown On his own farm in the
spring Of IS, and that it was the hop
pers OF his neighbors that afterwards
destroyed his nursery. All that is
needed Is for every farmer to look after
his v crop.
We therefore urge upon the people
OF the State. should the young brood
make their appearance again after
these recent storms. to see that the
intent OF the law calling upon the su-
pervlsors to summons the polls Of
every road district to the work of
lighting them. he fully complied WITT,
aud that a systematic and organized
effort be made, and no ''patch" of the
insects be left unvexed anywhere in
