because he had done all that mortal
man could do to prevent the occurrence
of this day in the history Of this coun-

believe that the reconstruction acts
were constitutional, and therefore "the
negroes were not properly freed, but.

The PRESIDENT SILVER Wed
observation-disclosures, Dec. 31-I o.
night the Executive Mansion was the
quiet scene of happy enjoyment on the
occasion of the silver wedding of Presi-
dent and Mrs. Hayes The guests
present did not humber quite 100.
The blue, red and green parlors were
profusely decorated with choice flowers
from the conservatory of the Executive
Mansion. The east room and main
corridors were refulgent with light
and odorous with evergreeus and exot-
les. The wedding party was called to
dinner, which took place in the state
dining room, at 10 o'clock. The en-
tertainment was enlivened with music
by portion of the marine band. The
party partook altogether Of the charac
ter OF quiet social entertainment, and
was attended by none of the scenes
that characterize official receptions at
the Executive Mansion President
and Mrs Hayes received several tele-
grams from old friends congratulating
them on this joyful event. At COM
paratively an early hour the guests
withdrew with many expressions of
kindness for the future welfare and
happiness of the distinguished host and
hostess.

Democratic papers are making u
comparison of the State expenses of
South Carolina the past year under
Democratic rule, and the year previous
y when the Republicans were in pow
err. BY distortiug some facts, and en-
tlrcly surppressing others, they make a
good showing for the Hampton govern
ment. They omit to state that some
of the reforms, the blessings of which
the people have been enjoying the past
year, were inausurated by Republican
legislation, aud would have been opera
tive now whether Hampton or Cham
berlin were governor. Notably is this
so in the reduction of Legislative ex-
penses, and in the public printing.
The saving in these items is in conse-
quence of laws passed under the Re.
publican regime, but for which the
Democrats now take all the credit. But
there are matters of savings which are
to be credited to the Hampton govern.
ment, and for them let proper allow
ance be made. The official figures
show that the appropriations made to
the State and Clafin universities, the
State Normal Schools, the public
sch ools, and other institutions of that
character, educational and charitable,
where parsimony is not always economy
or wisdom, are about 100000 less
than formerly. If closing the Univer-
sity and Normal School, cutting down
on the lunatics and orphans, shutting
up the schools, and practically abolish
ing School Commissioners, is wise
economy, then Hampton is to be con-
graduated, and Chamberlain must be
condemned. If refusing to pay debts
is praiseworthy retrenchment, then we
have In the so-called home rulers Of
South Caroline the wisest of finsnciers.
If practical reputation and the per-
pesuation of ignorance are grounds for
boasting, then Hampton may exalt
himself and Chamberlain may hide bis
head.

4S2 German papers published here,
his agencies supply the European
correspondence for $50. A great pro.
portion Of the German press CORE

WE ARE informed, says the Silver
State, thai an effort is being made
by the friends OF Bradley and Hager-
man, both Of whom are now promi-
nent candidates for the Democratic
nomination for the Governorship, to
effect compromise between them.
The bradley men are endeavoring to
get Hagerman to accept the second
place On the ticket with the old Gov
arnor at the head. As HagernIan
has strong following in many parts
Of the State, it cannot be expected
that be would make such sacrifice,
except for the sake of hsrmonizing
the various elements Of the party Of
which he is an honored and incor-
Euptible leader. Should he, however,
consent to this arrangement. 1t will
insure the success of the Democratic
ticket next November beyond all
doubt. A stronger team for Cover
nor and Lieutenant Governor could
pot be selected in the State OF Nevada,
and it would distance anything the
Bonanzas could place in the field
against it.

The California Legislature passed
no Act in relation to textbooks for

series will be continued in use for two
years longer. The Golden Era says !:
We are in favor Of throwing the Nc
Guffy series out of the schools, but
we do not favor the introduction Of
Bancroft's books, nor the books OF
any other private publishing house.
The only practical solution of the
textbook question, and the only way
to stop all future legislation on the
subject is for the State to publish
her own school books.
