The present driit at opinion On thr

system, Is perhaps, embodied m tia
spcrial Committee of the Legislature
that has thjs matter IA charsr.
THIS is q Joint committee ct the N,n-

SHOOTING THE POsTMAsTERs.-They
have novel way in South Carolina of
getting nd of an unpopular postmastor.
They simply call for their letters, and,
as the man turns his back to find them,
they fire into him and coolly depart.
That is the way in which it is done, the
other day, at place called Blackville
the victim being nothing but repub-
lican "nigger," and fellow that must
be got rid ef, to make place for an ex-
Confederate. 1t seems. however, that
Postmaster General Key objects to this
method of disposing of his appointees.
and has announced that the office itself
in that locality will be abolished, unless
sufficient sucurity can be given that the
men who act as postmasters will be thor
Oughly protected in their person and
property. This seems to be a reasonable
decision for if the Blackville patriots
can't stand such appointments as the
Department at Washington makes, it is
no more than fair for the Department to
say it can't stand their shooting, since
shooting colOred man appears to be
no crime in that vicinity, and the country

A CYCLOPEDIA FOR $1,000.

Perhaps the most remarkable litera-
ry enterprise of the time, is the publica-
tion of the Library of Universal Knowl-
edge, of 20 volumes of nearly 1000
pages each. handsomely bound. for 90
cents per volume. or $1,000 for the set.
1t is reprint entire OF the last Q879)
Edinburg and London edition of Cham
bers' Encyclopedia A Dictionary of
Universal knowledge for the People,
with very large additions upon topics of
special interest to American readers
The amount of matter will somewhat
exceed that of the Cyclopedias of Apple
ton or johnson. though the price is but
fraction of their cost. Volume one
Is now ready, and the others will follow
at very short intervals. The remarkably
low prices are accounted for by the
methods of sale. to the subscribers d.
rect. saving them the large commission,
often so or 60 per cent. paid to agents
or dealers; also by the recent great re-
ductlon in the cost of making books, and
by making very large sales. This GER
tainly is work that the millions will
appreciate. Special inducements are
offered to early subscribers and to clubs.

BUTTER.

Butter, to use new popular phrase,
was blooming" last week. The best
creameries sold in Boston and New York
as high as ~ cents, and the best fall
butter from noted dairies as high as "a
cents. Common grades were from IL to
Is cents. No one knows just what has
produced the sudden advance to high
prices, and no one dares predict that
prices will stand at these figures great
length Of time. The large butter cellars
are being filed, and when this special
demand ceases there is danger of reac-
ton, that will carry the prices down to
former figures. Our farmers should
watch the market very carefully, lest
they wait too long. 1t is always safe,
and in nine cases out of ten the best
way, to dispose of any article when it
brings all that it is worth. Butter, in
comparison with other things, is only
worth. say, twenty cents pound, and
it will not keep below this price for any
length of time, nor can it remain above
these figures, except temporarily.
1t is gratifying to know that just now
almost every article, whether the product
of the factory or farm, is advancing,
with prospect that good prices will
soon be realized for all that can be rails
ed or manufactured. The good times
are coming.

,tOOd as follows

A leading New York paper thus SEN
bly, and sarcastically alludes to the
matter:
The spectacle presented by the pedes-
trian martyrs must be of great service
to the community. Fully six thousand
persons daily attend the walking match,
and with the aid of betting, smoking,
beer-drinking, and profanity, purify
their souls and enlighten and enlarge
their minds. Still, while we enthusiast
ically applaud the pedestrians and re-
cognize them as unspeakable benefactors
of the human race, let us not forget that
there are other spectacles which might
be at least as beneficial as are interna-
tional walking matches. Why should
we not have an international drunkard' S
match, with champion belt to be given
to the drunkard who should drink the
largest quantity of rum in given time
drink as you please? Such a match
would command the enthusiastic approx
al of nine tenths of the men who now
crowd into the Madison-Square Garden,
and would exercise at least as improving
an influence over the community as is
exercised by the spectacle now in pro.

The Secretary of the Treasury has

The Secretary of the Treasury has
ordered his agents to pay out gold at
all the sub.treasuries. and yet nobody
wants it. Very little has been called
for at any point. Government bonds
are paid for in legal tender currency.
and government officers and employees
arc paid in paper and silver. They are
compelled to take one-tenth pay in sill
ver. and this they Immediately deposit
in the government vaults, receiving silver
certificates therefor. In the meantime
q very large amount of gold is coming
to our shores every week. Last week
a million dollars left Paris at one time
for America, aud larger sums in the ag-
gregate left England. The immense
excess Of exports over imports must
bring to our shores the money of the old
countries. We are in condition here
yet to receive considerable more, and
shall try and be composed at this state
Of affairs.
