manufactures, which will furnish re-
munerative employment to our hon

tended still further if the Senate
would amend the bill so that its pro.

order without taxing the citizens.

Resign atien of Judge Haskell.

Alta recent meeting of the State
Democratic Executive Committee,
held in Columbia, Hon A. G. Haskell
rendered his resignation Us u mem
ber Of that body because of his
position of Associate Justice Of the
SUPP eme Court. The people of South
Carolina will ever remember with
feelings of gratitude the invaluable
services of Judge Haskell during the
memorable campaign of 1876. By
his intrepidity of character, skill in
planning and promptness i'll execu-
ting, the Democratic party was con-
Quoted tr.umphantly and safely
through the most turbulent period in
the history ofour State. The ability
which conceived the plans and the
firmness which carried them to a sue
cessful issue have been fitly rewarde d
by the position he now occupies. IF
nobility Of character, if purity of NOR
ais, if a high order of mind apd if an
uDstained past record constitute n
basis for hope, then do we predict for
Judge Haskell an onorable career,
not only in his present position but in
any other to which the confidence of
tile people may call him.

A SILVER CoMpaoMIsE.- The
Washington correspondent of tho New
York World writes "There is no
doubt that every effort is being made
to compromise the silver question on
the basis Of the trade dollar of 42O
grains. Some of the leading silver
men have informally agreed to this.
MIR. Cameron, of Wisconsin, presented
an amendment to the silver bill to
this effect in the Senate to-day. Those
of the silver men who expect this say
That it will avoid the coinage Of two
separate dollars and furnish silver
dollar equal to the old Mexican dol
lar, and which will continue to be
used for export purposes. Whether
this compromise will succeed or not
remains to be seen. But leading men
on both sides regard it as very pro-
able"

Silver.

We stated in last weeks review of
the doings OF Congress that the Mat
thcws Resolutions had passed, which
was simply n declaration That the
bonded debt of the United States is
pable in silver or gold at the will of
the Government, by very decided
vote. This would seem to indicate
that similar triumph would meet
the Bland bill on its passage through
the Senate, especially SO, fter all the
points had been fully discussed by
the House when on its passage
through that body recently. Yet the
Senators, without any regard to the
expenses, are wasting days in going
over the same ground, oblivious Of
.ibe fact that after all the bill may oe
destroyed By the TTssident's Veto
Whether the reconciliation of Silver
will be panacea for our National
financial ills is question yet to be
solved by actual experience. The
causes Of these evils are too remot.
to be met by any immedriate remedy.
The measures instituted to carry on
the war we're on so gigantic scale
as TO entail an enormous expense.
To meet this demand, the Govern.
ment introduced an irredeemable
paper system and issued millions of
dollars which had to be bolstered up
by law suspending specie payment
and demonitizing silver. The huctu-
ations of this curancy may be the
prime cnuse Of our money ills, and
any corrective must necessarily be
slow and indirect in its action. The
Bland Silver bill can only be such
correc i've and like every other
remedy is liable to fail. AS we look
at the question the only sure COR
rective is the Inauguration of sys.
TEN of strict economy in both Ma
tional and State affairs, and spirit
Of enterprise Oh the part Of our citi-
zens. Legislation may aid but can
not force prosperity upon people.
A determined effort OH the part Of
Congress to reduce National expenses,
and q united effort by the State Leg
islature to reduce State expenditures
by a system Of rigid economy, will
go far to place our people once more
on the road to financial independence.
Labor must be freed from the burden
of an unwarranted taxation, and
trade from unjust discriminating
revenue laws, before money can be
made uniform i'll value or prosperity
attend the efforts of our people. Less
Legislation, save in the direction Of
rigid economy, is needed. The sacred
pledges of the Hampton campaign
should remind our Legislators Of the
duty of the hour.

in State cases. The bill was ably dis

Dibble, Edens and Buist, and finally
passed with amendment, giving the
attending witnesses fifty cents per day
and five cents mileage. There was
strong opposition to the bill by most

down fees for witnesses. 1t wa,
strongly argued that many witnesses
had no other way of making living.

have determined that the best course
to be pursued, in regard to holding
the courts in the various counties,
where the judges dn not attend by
reason Of the vacancies in the office,
is for the clerk ofthe various ourts
to dismiss the juries and witnesses OH
Monday morning, with Instructions
to return OH the following Monday,
and then to open the courts, aud adj
journ from day to day, until the fol-
fo"h's Hi=r-ei..yy .srsa-.Aoe, if TIA
