Mr.. Earle, assistant u. S. attorney for
South Carolina, is still in Washington. Ito
states that it is not certain as yet that Judge
Bond will 20 to South Carolina to try the cases
of the internal revenue officials under lndiot'
ment for killing L,dd. The matter remains in
s.atu quo, and no definite determination has
been reached 10 these oascs. Judge Bond has
siguiied willingness to 90 10 South Carolina,
if necessary, and hold special term OF court,
although it is thought now that this will not
be necessary unless the Stale authorities deter
mine to resist The transfer of the imprisoned
revenue officials to tho jurisdiction Of the fede'
raj court. As has already been announced, a
writ of habeas corpus, as provided In section
G43 of the Revised Statutes, has been served
on the sheriff having charge Of the prisoners,
which he declined to recognize. Instructions
have been sent to tho United States marshal to
demand tho custody Of the revenue officials,

The Petersburg lodex. Appeal says that
there is really less discord among the people
of the Fourth Congressional District than in
any other political grand division Of tho Com.
monwoalth. To the Seventh District, it would
seem. the party has entirely gone to pieces; in
be Eighth, nearly every county seads double
delegation to the convention; in the Ninth,
there arc signs of scrub race; and in every
other district there are so many candidates that
they have to be calculated by the process OF
logarithms, as the ordinary arithmetic doesn't
reach 'em. We arc glad to claim for the Black
BELT happy exemption from these disorders
apd dissentions. Whoever may be tho nomi.
nee, the party will be harmonious and united,
snd will poll its whole strength on election day.
That is more than can be said of all the other
districts, though we suppose the ID, Sd, 5th
and 9Th. and may be tho LIST, are equally reli-
able for conservative unity. The others will
end democrats doubtless; but whether they
are the nominees of the regular conventions is
what no fellow can find out until after the polls
are closed"

WHAT Chuck ~ SMELr.-There is n
schoolboy in Detroit whom all the bows
call Chuck" His full name NAV be
Woodchuck, or Chuck-a-luck-'' it makes
no difference" as the sweet singer of Mich
lgan says. The boy has given II great deal
OF attention to school panics, fire escapes.
and public doors which open the wrong
way, and it was his belief until the other
day that the scholars in each school should
be trained to run down stairs en- naaSsc mt
the cry of fire. AS the teachers didn't
seem to agree with him he determined to
lnauguratc new idea" Chuck's Cello
brated Rush Down Stairs
He couldn't keep the idea to himself
after inventing it, but confidcntially inform
ed some of his companions that exactly at
ten clock in the forenoon he would rise in
his seat and call to the teacher:-
" smell smoke-I guess the building is
on tire.'
If that didn't start en- he meant to cry
" lre!' till the tide of immigration began
to set down stairs. Everything went off
all right during the morning, and when
ten O'Clock came Chuck " was :. there"
lie rose up according TO programme, and
began -
Teacher, smell"
AT the third word some one picked him
uf, tied him in II hard knot, united him.
and played with him like ball. and final
ly set him down in badly demoralzed
heap and softly asked:-
What was that you smellp"
Chuck y caug ht his breath, looked up
into the face of the principal, and humbly
replied
1t may have been n-new mown hay,
but | won't swear to i!n
The boys who peached on him come to
school late and go home early, but
u Chuck's" time is coming.
