s- -
A case has arisen that is likely to
bring about decision as to who Is
Governor of South Carolina. Hamp-
ton, the democratic pretended Gov
ernor, has granted pardon to a
colored prisoner in the Chester conn-
ty Jail, and the sheriff refuses to re-
lease the prisoner on the ground that
Hampton is not governor Of the state.
Judge Mackey has issued writ of
hddeas corpus on the petition of the
prisoner, and the case was assigned,
when Judge Mackey promptly deci-
ded that Wade Hampton was the
legal governor. The sheriff's counsel
promptly appealed the case to the
supreme court.

The Supreme Court of Iowa has
decided that each railr oad in Iowa,
together with its buildings, rolling
stock and fixtures used in the State
shall be assessed in bulk, or as an
entirety, and the tax thus derived
shall be distributed equally to the
various counties, townships and
towns through which the road pass
es. Hitherto the cities where large
numbers OF cars and large values in
railroad property is accumulated,
have claimed the right to assess all
such property as might happen to be
within their jurisdiction at the time
their several assessments were made.
This involved double eassessmentsand
evasions, and gave to the larger
towns and cities an undue proper
tion Of the revenue paid by the rail.
road companies. The late decis-
ion settles the controversy, relieves
the local assessors from the duty OF
assessing railroad property, and en-
sures to each locality It's due proper
ton OF the railroad tax levies.

to be the only square inch Of COM
mon ground upon which the two
parties can unite.
I have examined as far as could,
reflected upon, compared, read, and
thought over the reason for and
against its constitutionality with a
due regard, AS I believe, to the
weight and solemnlty Of the oath I
have taken to support tho constitu-
tion OF my country, and believe it to
be- measure to protect and preserve
the Constitution, not to violate it.
1t constitutes a tribunal absolutely
fair, even TO the avoidance Of shad-
ow OF shade Of partisan bias SO faras
men can devise, and It does seem to
me that the party or the individual
who would refuse in the present
state Of doubts, of fact, and differen-
ces OF law, to submit to the arbitra-
ment Of 90 fairly constituted trib-
unai must lack confidence in the
rIghteousness or his cause.
Hnd, sir, from my brief expert
ence here, that II Is always hard to
yield, even the slightest degree,
what any of my own party may re-
gard as an advantage, believing as I
do that Il IL the only party which
stands firmly by the immortal doc
trine that the rights of all our citi-
zens as granted by the Constitution
shall be maintained; and l am not
unmindful that in crisis like the
present, reflections like these might
come 10 members: "Through this
measure defeat must come to one
party or the other but woe unto him
by whom the defeat cometh; bet
ter 4 milestone be tied about his
neck and he be cast into the sea. If
/ vote mo- and my party is Defeated
BY the bill, 1t will not be my fault.
III IL Is sustained, I have done 1t no
harm; 1t can never be known, but II
would have been SO in any event,
and / am politically intrenched. !"
But he who, II his judgment is con-
vinccd that this Is measure in the
interest of truth, righteousness, and
peace, would let personal or mere
party considerations turn the weight
OF q hair In the scales, is not worthy
TO occupy place on the floor of the
American Congress.
believothat no one has higher
respect for the judgment Of the no.
BILE and patriotic men who compose
tho Republican party Of Iowa than ] /,
and have regretted to find they
were not more 2earnestly for this
measure; but the last word receiv-
ed, telegram on yesterday, has the
true ring. II was:
Hold the Fort Country before party, The peo.
rlo win snstsin peaceful solution.
This was signed by men whose
Republicanisin Is as strong and pure
as exists In that Republican state
which gave to Mr.. Hayes, whom
we hope to see by fair and righteous
means President Of these United
States, near 10000 majority.
am heartily for this measure,
and doubt not II will pass and dem
onstrato to tho world that this great
American people are yet capable of
self-government.

fROsrfs CASE.

The Committee report in the case
OF Frost that he was, before the re-
bellion, a United States officer, and
had taken tho required oath as such,
and as a member Of the Missouri
Legislature, to support the Constitu-
tion. He was a Confederate officer.
These facts rendered him ineligible
as elector under the third section OF
the Fourteenth Constitutional
Amendment; he was pardoned in
1866 by the President, but this par
don did not remove his disabilities,
which could only be removed By a
two-thirds vote of both houses Of
Congress; Frost absented himself
from tire Electoral College, and its
members filed the vacancy, This
act, under the Missouri State Con-
stitution, they had no power what
ever TO perform; consequently their
action was void, Frost being ineligi-
BILE to be an elector, Iie was also incl.
igible TO be appointed.
UALLIDAY's IHELIdIBILITY.
In tho case of Halliday, the COM
mittee said he was Centennial
Commissioners at the time Of the
election, that being an office Of trust
he therefore was Ineligible rs an

present filled the vacancy, as they

the normal condition of the system.
Often times, indeed, they are much
more efficaciOus In restoring the equi =
| libi ium than any med cnal agents. And
their advantage consists in their natur-
! al adaptation 10 the needs OF the human
body; they cool its heated parts, give
life to the secretiOns, rouse the liver,
and thus make the whole nature alive
with eXuberant vitality. The best time
for taking fruit is before rather than af-
meals. Its laxative effect is most no.
ticable when it is eaten before break
fast, but in moderation it will be found
beneficial at all hours. -
These remarks apply only to ripe and
perfect fruit. Nothing can be worse
than to eat the unripe or decayed.
These abominations indeed, are the
cause, in the hands OF Ignorant or negli-
gent parents or their children, OF
SO many of the diseases which are
fatal to the young in hot weather. 1t is
the perversiOn Of our blessings that
makes them prolific oil evil, and whoever
uses for food wnat has not reached or

for the consequences. Let US hope that
