DISTRICT ATTORNEY NORTHROP.

Judge Northrop, of the Seventh Judicial
Circuit, has been appointed District Attorney
for South Carolina, in place of VIM. Stone.
resigned. Judge Northrop is we'll known
throughout the State. Although pronounced
Republican, and having been to some extent
identified with the Republican Government
in this State, there have never been any
charges of fraud or corruption preferred
against him. Elected to his position by a
Republican Legislature, and being strict
party man himself, he nevertheless had the
manliness to acknowledge the rightful claims
of Governor Hampton to the Office to which
the people had elected him, and was among
the first to make that acknowledgement
public. Judge Northrop is a native of the
State-we think of Charleston-was Con-
federate soldier and served faithfully through
out the war. He is gentleman of charac-
ter and ability, and we feel assured will dis
charge the duties of his office fearlessly and
impartially, showing neither favor nor affec.
ton to any. According to Marshal Wal.
laces Interpretation of Southern character, it
may be urged that only Democratic ap.
pointee would give satisfaction to our people,
and We doubt not there are many who would
have preferred that the place should be filled
by Democrat; but that could hardly be
expected of the appointing power if men at
all competent can be found in the Republican
party. In this case the President has done
the next best thing be could, by appointing a
native citizen, whose character and ability
fit him for position, the duties of which we
doubt not he will fill honorably and accept

AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS.

Mr.. Joseph A. Adams, of Clover, and Mr..
A. Frank Woods, of town, have each favored
US with some fine sweet potatoes. Of those
presented US by Mr.. Woods, one weighed 2s
pounds, and one of Mr.. Adams weighed 81
pounds. .., .. .-
Mr.. L. H. Porter has also sent US jug of
sorghum of very fair quality. We observe
that farmers throughout this, as we'll as the
adjoining States of Georgia and North Caro-
lima, are renewing their attention to this crop,
which, since the war, has been somewhat neg
lected In war times sorghum was considered
the correct thing at the breakfast table, and a
good quality is as palatable now as it was
then. We are glad the farmers of York are
awakening to the importance of producing
this and many other home supplies, which
true course of economy certainly dictates.
We learn that G. P. Sandifers crop of two
acres of cane, yielded 200 gallons Of syrup.
This is equivalent to the same quantity of
molasses, the market price of which is from
$12O to $3.50.

Attitude Of Republican Politicians.
"A Washington letter of recent date gives
the following as the present attitude OF Re-
publican leaders towards Mr.. Hayes and bis
administration
A very prominent Southern Republican
now here, who on his last visit to Washington
was bitterly opposed to the Presidents policy,
now says there is nothing left to him but to
give it bis full support. He says that the poll.
ticians of either party who attempt to stand in
the way of the Southern policy will, in short
time, be left so far behind that they will lsnev-
er catch up. This view is eminently saga.
cious, and by the time of the meeting of Con-
gress, it will have penetrated the brains Of
most if notsll of the Republican leaders, who
up to very late period were confidently ex-
pected to attack the Presidents Southern pol.
icy. The remarkable spontaneous manner
In which the people of the whole country,
North and South, have rallied around the
President and given their hearty approval to
his efforts for au equal and fraternal Union,
is sufficient admonisbment that no breach
can be effected on that line. '@'4@'s! 't'ts
There are enemies Of the President in his
own party, however, who will not surrender
quietly, because in one particular the chances
ofsuccessful assaulton him are well nigh hope.
less. There are other openings in his armor
which they still hope to pierce Bafaed in
their opposition to his Southern policy, their
assaults will now be directed against the
character of his appointments. and against his
civil service reform policy generally. 1t is
confessed by some of the warmest friends of
the President that in these respects he is
not by any means invulnerable. It is sus.
ceptable of easy demonstration that the prom
ises made in reference to civil service reform
have only very remotely been put iu practice.
The case of the efforts which have been made
to compel the Ohio clerks to 90 home and
vote, affords case in point. The President,
while at Knoxville, authorized denial to be
sent ofthe report that be had personally ex.
pressed the wish that the clerks should go
home and vote, and Secretary Sherman has
indignantly" denied that personally he has
brought any pressure to bear upon the clerks
in this direction. All this does not alter the
plain fact that high officials have urged upon
the clerks to 60, and given them to understand
that it would be to their interest to do 90, and
further, that such action would be agreeable
to the President. ata, 2al ~

THE FALL TRADE.

The merchants of Yorkville are now re.
ceiving their fall purchases, which, We learn,
are unusually heavy, in anticipation of brisk
denand. In the dry goods line Messrs. T. M.
Dobson 4 Co., Hunter & Oates, Fl. F.
Adickes & Sons, Latimer & Hemphill, H. W.
Hope & Co., and Kennedy Bros. & Barron,
all have ample stocks and can suit the wants
of all classes of customers.
In connection with all the above houses, ex-
cept that of Hunter & Oates good assort-
ment of family groceries is kept.
Clark Brothers, who deal exclusively in
groceries and plantation supplies, have full
stock, to which they constantly receive fresh
accessions.
Mrs. Fannie L. Dobson and Misses Massey
& Smith will be better prepared than ever to
decorate the feminine heads with the most
perfect gems of head.gear ever introduced in
Yorkvlle. We have not had time to inspect
the handsome array of millinery goods to be
found in either of these establishments; but
we overheard one lady say to another that
the styles are "just lovely" which is the most
expressive superlative now in vogue, and
means great deal in ladies' vernacular on
the all.important subject of dress. We need
hardly advise the ladies to call and inspect
the nice things on exhibition and for sale in
the millinery stores; but if they fail to do so
it will be their own fault-or more likely, the
fault of their frugal husbands, who have to
