Standing by the Settlement.

The State legislators have been
getting each other by the ears over
the State debt; and most earnest
efforts have been made to abolish the
Bond Court as preliminary step, it
is charged, to reputation. The
House OH Monday refused to abolish
the Court by vote of 81 to 50, and
then by laying on the table motion
to reconsider, cflcctually shclvcd it
for the session. The argument urged
against the Court is that it is uncon-
stitutional. This is answered by say
ing that even, if it is, which is denied,
a decree made by it can do no harm
if it does no good, and thot it is better
to let the Supreme Court decide the
constitutionality Of the Bond Court.
The question is an old one, and the
present compromise was effected to
prevent disscnsion in the party. 1t
seems to be folly to build up one day
and pull down the next. Let the
binding obligation Of the debt be first
decided, and then it is time to talk
about paying it. Again, reputation
is urged by some who desire to dis
rupt the party, and party welfare de-
mands opposition to this. Lastly, some
60 so far as to urge reputation Of
all the debt, not only that made by
the Radicals but the just obligations
incurred by the State before the war.
This is dishonesty. 1t can be called
by no other name. Such being the
ultimate object of some, care should
be had not to allow the first step in
this direction to be taken. All things
considered, it is better to stand by the
settlement. We are pleased to sec
that Messrs. Clowney, Br:cc and
Gaillard all voted against rc-openino
the question. We are convinced that
they stand on the right ground. The
Democratic party has already suffered
enough from Greenbackism, imitation
and other kindred projects. II
should not be further loaded at the
present time with reputation.

Afraid of an Open Investigation.

The Senate, in Washington, was
on Monday the scene Of very heated
debate over an amendment offered by
Senator Butler, of this State, to
Blaine's investigating resolution.
Senator Butler demanded that the
Investigations shall be held with open
doors, so that witnesses may not false
ly swear away the reputation of re-
spectacle citizens without an oppor-
tulity of answering being afforded
In this he was supported by Senators
Merrimon and Bayard, the former of
whom said he had served OH one or
two secret investigating committees
already, and had been astoundcd by
the false swearing of irresponsible
witnesses. No mans character is safe
in such hands, as he is kept ignorant
of what is going on until too late to
reply. But the Radicals claimed that
the witnesses would be intimidatcd
unless allowed to testify in secret.
The vote was strict party one, and
resulted in a tie, the amendment thus
being defeated. 1t will be seon by
this that the Radicals merely want
campaign documents, and they know
they can manufacture them better in
secret than in open daylight.
Il propoS of this whole matter, the
New York Herald very wisely urges
the Democrats not to give any op-
portunity for discussion of Blaine's
resolution. Its sole object is to excite
attention, and the best way to meet it
is to refuse to advertise it, and to let
1t die still-born. Unless the Demo
Gratis are sure they can make capital,
which is very doubtful, they had bet
ter the matter severely alone.

is to serve, yet, with this rccommcnda-
ton, he is knovn.
The various committces-on cduca-
ton, books and periodicals, Sunday
schools, Bible causes, temperance,
publishing house, joint board of
tinance--reported. The proposition
to change the ratio Of representation
in general conference received unani-
nous vote.
About $4,000 was inv cstcd in tho
bonds for relief Of the publishing
house. These bonds draw four per
cent. and the investment is secured by
mortgage.
The missionary meeting, addressed
by Rev. DR.. Wilson, the missionary
secretary, was a decided succcsa in
every way.
The next Conference Is to be held in
Charleston.
The varions churches were general
ly opened and occupied on Sunday
by some of tho ministers Of the Confer
cncc. Bishop Wightman's sermon in
the morning was on the Personality of
the Holy Ghost, and was full Of the
glorious doctrine. Though all old
man the Bishop still breaches with his
old time vigor and masterly ability.
Rev. S. y. Weber was elected editor
OF our Conference organ, the Southern
Christian Adrocate, vice Rev. f. NJ.
Kennedy, ID. d., resigned.
Let me in closing allude to one of
the most interesting incidents of the
Conference. Bishop Wightman arose
to read telegram. 1t was concern
ing our governor. 1t announced that
there was favorabl: change, when,
with one accord, the body arose and
sung "Praise God from Whom all
blessings t!ow." 1t was thrilling

Apples Of Cold in Pictures Of Silver.

I" \ word fifty spoken is like apples Of gold
in pictures of silver" When the body be-
comes diseased the mind is thereby ncces-
sarly influenced. National wars, State dis
sensions, neighborhood broils, and family
differences, are more frequently than other
wise the result of diseased and dsordered
constitutions. When the body is suffering,
the mind, acting in sympathy, Will be-
come irritated and perplexed. When the
physical system is in health, the mind per-
ceives things in their true light, and the
disposition assumes very different phase.
Nothing more directly tends to destroy the
happy, cheerful disposition Of a woman, and
render her peevish, nervous, and fretful than
a constant endurance of uterine disorders.
The diseases peculiar to woman take away
the elasticity and bouyancy of health and
reduce her body and mind to mere wreck.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is q real
peacemaker in family. No woman suffer-
ing from uterine disorders can afford to be
without this remedy. The Favorite Pre-
scription saves unnecessary doctor bills, pre-
vents divorces, wards off suicide, brings back
bouyant joyous feelings, restores the woman
to health, and her family to happiness. 1t is
sold by all druggists.

"A Herald correspondent writing from
Washington under date of Tuesday, 1lth
inst, says The city has been full of ru-
mors for some days of a new attempt to oust
the President, and it has been generally be-
licved that such an attempt would be made
in this direction. It has been rumored that
the effort would originate on the the Demo-
cratic side, but it has been well known to
those who were well informed that Republic
cans inspired the whole unconventional their
promise of support encouraged it. A promi-
nent Western Democratic representative,
who is known to be ready to introduce
resolution of inquiry looking to writ of
custer, when asked whether he really be-
lieved it would carry in the House, replied
at once, "Of course it will have very strong
Republican support, as am well assured"
There is no reason to believe that it would
have Democratic support, however. Mr.,
Tucker, of Virginia, one ofthc ablest lawyers
in the House, and strong Democrat, is
credited with saying that the movement is
nonsensical and has no hope of success or
any reason to succeed. In the conclusion of
his speech Tuesday on the diplomatic SER
vice, Mr.. Hewitt made formal declaration
on the subject, which, considering his posi-
tion in the Democratic party, will attract
general attention. Speaking of these rumors
of attempts to oust the President, he asked
whether the Presidents will had been para
lyzed by the discussions in the House and
elsewhere in regard to his title, and took oc-
casion to say that for his part he held that
the Presidents title could not be called in
question in any way. So far as he could sec
his title was irrefragable and sacred The
fraud committed was not his fraud The
trick by which the Democratic party had
lost their rights was not his trick, but that
it was due to those who in the Electoral
Commission had declared that evidence
should be received and on the Electoral
Commission who had refused to receive evil
dence That the only fraud that could be
charged against the President was fraud as to
his pledges, and that his tenure of office is
assured to him, though the first year of his
office was disappointment to those who
looked upon reform of the civil service as
necessary to save this country from revolu-
ton, because the struggle for hundred
thousand offices every quadrennial period
was simply organized revolution. He ad-
ded that three years still remained to Mr.
Hayes in which to redeem his promises and
make himself the benelactor Of his country.
But if he failed to recognize the demands of
the best men of the land he would be regard
ed as fraud. This explicit declaration is
important, because Mr. Hewitt speaks for a
large part of the Democratic party, and there
is no doubt that the Eastern and Southern
Democrats, at least, will refuse to take part
with the anti-Hayes Republican or to be
used by them as a cats paws in an attempt
to drag Mr. Hayes from the White House.

A Book that Everybody Wants.

We have received from the National Pub
fishing Company of Philadelphia the ad-
vance sheets of their new work, entitled The
Pictorial History Of tie World, by James d.
McCabe, a well known historical writer. 1t
is the most valuable book that has been pub
lshed in this country for many years. 1t
contains a separate and admirably written
history of every nation of ancient and mod
ern times, and is full of useful information
concerning them, presented in popular style,
and in a manner that will enable the reader
to refer instantly to any subject upon which
information is desired. The book is a com
plete treasury of history, and there is not
question that can be asked concerning any
historical subject, but an answer to it can be
found in this work. The author does not
content himself with q mere dry statement
of facts, but sketches the life and manners of
the various nations ofwhich he treat in life
like colors, and presents to the reader the
causes which led to the prosperity and decay
of the great powers of the world. He shows
us the various great men the warriors,
statesmen, poets, sages, and orators-of am
cient and modern times, and makes them
familiar to the reader he explainsthe secret
motives of their actions, and points out the
lessons which their lives teach. A valuable
feature of this work is a complete History Of
the late War betOecp RuSsia and Turkey-
the only one in print. The mechanical exc
cution of the book deserves the highest
praise 1t contains 1860 large double-col-
umn pages, printed in the clearest and most
beautiful style on paper of the very best
quality. The book is embellished with over
$50 fine engravngs, embracing battles and
other historical scenes; portraits Of the great
men of ancient and modern times views of
the principal cities of the world. These en-
cravings are genuine works of art, and were
made at cost of over S25O00. The great
number and high character of these engrav-
ings make this one of the most valuable art
publications of the century.
1t is for sale by subscription only, and
agents will find that this book will sell read.
