The South.
New YORK World

Indications come to us from day to
tling down to the task of reforming and
regenerating society, determined to re-
gain the wealth and happiness of oil
days out of the new elements at hand
and under the new conditions that are
imposed. The work done in the Con-
stitutional Convention in Georgia is of
this wise, liberal and hopeful character.
South Carolina's emancipation is so re-
cent that she is yet busy with political
contests; but there, as elsewhere, the
disposition to seek sound and perman-
ent foundation for the building up of
the Commonwealth is manifested. Per-
haps the most healthfuI sign Is the dis
position of public men to be honest in
their criticisms and tell the truth about
the short comings of these people.
There never was better example or
this plain speaking than the speech of
Judge Merrimon, delivered last week at
Chapel Hill, s. G. He traced the histo-
ry of the State from the day when il
stands fourteenth. He dwelt upon its
national resorces and its extent, and
then pointed Indignantly to its poverty,
the paucity of its mines and manufac-
lures and the illiteracy of It's people, Of
whom 338, 900 cannot read. He did not
hesitate to draw comparison with
Ohio in order to humble the State pride
of his hearers still further, and as the
great remedy for the ills Of the Com.
monwealth he recommended work
Throughout the whole country this les
son should be taken to heart "We do
not work enough, and have not givento
labor that high and noble dignity which
it demands" !" This was once good
Northern doctrine, but il seems TO have
gone out of fashion.

But few persons have anything

about their neighbors, struggling for
life, falling in love, taking quini1e,
having their teeth pulled, guzzling
whisky, chewing gum, wearing out
old clothes, trying to make money.

Joint Legislature to determine the pending

Nichols party, ask the President to, deter
mine which is the legal State Government.
The President declines to act upon the re-
quest as, under the present circumstances,
he would not be justified In making q decis-
ion. Owing to the disagreement Of the Mich
oils and Packard parties, and the unprolnis-
ing prospects Of accommodation, the Com
mission ask for further instructions, which
will be sent after Cabinet session. A tel
egram was received from the President on
the evening OF the l3th, but the Commits
sion declines to make the contents public.
| At the session on the 18th, Gen. Nc.
MILAN, Judge Leonard, and several other
prominent Republicans, were present. Gen.
Mcmillan and his associates urged upon the
Commission the necessity OF an early decision
by the President; every interest OF the State
and people demand it; if it is to be Nichols,
they desire to know the tact at once; if Pack
ard is to be recognized, let it be done without
further delay. Gen. Mcmillan said that CONT
dence in the ultimate success OF the Nichols
government seemed to be hardening, citing
the improvement in State bonds, &C., and de.
sertions from Packard s Legislature as sustain
ing this view.

Now, Make Your Own Diamonds, Z

Many pastes have been devised for
the preparation. of these beautiful
stones. None have been able in their
products to equal the natural diamond
in hardness and brilliancy. But,
nevertheless, to an Impractical eye,
the imitation is so perfect that the
difference cannot be distinguished.
The following formula for making a
paste is said to be one that gives the
most satisfactory result. It is called
'.Loysel's paste:'' - '"h Il

Red oxide of lead 20" @t'sl5O parts
Potash, calciped T.. - 80 parts
Borax, calcined .-.sl.,r 10 parts

This produces paste which has a
great brllliancy and retroactive and
dispersive powers, and also a specific
gravity similar to that of the Oriental
diamond.

A Temperance Movement In New York.
A New York telegram of the 10th
announces the latest temperance movement
as follows: The Court OF Appeals have rem
dered decision setting forth that the Board
OF Excise have no power at law to grant
license to persons other than keepers OF inns,
taverns and hotels to sell strong and spiritu-s
Gus liquors and wines, to be drank on the
premises OF these licensed. James Gibney,
liquor dealer, selling liquor under license
of the Board Of Excise, was to-day fined by
Judge Sutherland the nominal sum of one
dollar. The punishment was made light be-
cause the dealer was not aware that he vic.
lated the law. If brought up again the pen
atty will be increased. The action in Glib
news case created intense excitement in the
ranks Of the liquor dealers, and District At
torney Phelps has had consultation with the
Police Commissioners on the subject. Mean
while the temperance people are taking adj
vantage OF the situation, and have organized
temperance crusade, with Oliver Cutler at
the head, for the wholesale arrest of liquor
dealers should the police not take action in
the matter.

Tho Volcano of Oshlma.

The Japanese Nichi Nichi Shinbun
publishes the following account from
Il correspondent of a recent trip to a
volcano in actual eruption located on
Vries Island: GAS we neared the
island in the Yokosuka Maru we per-
ceived only small quantity of smoke
during the day, but after nightfall the
glare of the fire and smoke from the
volcano presented a grand but terrible
spectacle. Naml.u-the port at which
we landed-bears every appearance of
having once been the site of volcano,
the ground being composed of mass
of pumice stone. When distance of
three ri from the crater of the volcano
we could distinctly hear the terrible
sound of fire and lava vomiting forth.
We assembled to the highest point of
the mountain, which is variously est.
mated at from 1900 to $500 feet and
from that height gazed into the burn.
ing crater. The entire island seems to
have been volcanic, as there are sew
eral extinct craters, one of which is
about twelve ch0 in diameter and 500
feet deep. To the west of it is a small
crater about twenty feet in diameter
from which still issue fire and smoke.
We observed numerous indications of
lava having streamed over various
parts of the island, which itself is a
mass of pumice. When we reached
the summit of the mountain rain CON-
menced to fall heavily. Looking down
into the crater we noticed stones bub-
bling up and down as if in boiling
water and at intervals of from two to
five minutes jets of lava were thrown
up to height Of from 100 to $50 feet.
About o'clock in the afternoon the
weather became very stormy, and it
rained heavily then columns of lava
were shot up to a height of about L.
600 feet, but most of it again fell into
the crater. Sulphur is not very plen-
tiful, though we saw some burning on
the edges of the crater. To the north
of the volcano there is a hot spring.
According to accounts given by the ma
tives, the volcano was active some
twenty years ago but about that time
The Grange advance. [volume] (Red Wing, Minn.) 1873-1877, 1877-04-18

it ceased to emit lava until the third
year Of Meiji (l870), only sending forth
volumes of smoke during the interval.
But on the 9th or 28th Of December,
1870, it again cast forth tire and lava,
: but soon ceased eruption; and did not
become active again until about the
4th of January, this year. uoni,vl :
