The Blaine Boom.

1t seems that the Pennsylvania
Republican delegation, recently cleo
ted to attend the National Convcn-
ton TO assemble IN Chicago on the
I'd Of June next, will go, with two
sets Of inctruc;ioils one by Il maiori-
y of the State Convention to vote as
Il unit for Gen. Grant, and the other
by their constituents to vote for
Senator Blaine Gf Maine. Many OF
the mcnibtfs Of that delegation were
suggested by their districts and for
This reason feel themselves bound to
obey the wishes Of their immediate
constituents and vii! SO act at The
Chicago meeting. This is boom for

Itself that he has twice rs many al

called with mere than Two thousand

said that the delegations Of many Of
the Southern States will lend him a

The South and Negro Rule.

The Republican organs arc worry
ing themselves over recent state
ment in the Charleston Ncsvs and
Courier TO the effect that the people
Of South Carolina never intend to
again submit to negro domination,
and will take all necessary means TO
prevent repetition of their former
experience. The st. Louis RcpuJli-
can, in an able editorial on this sub
ject, speaks our sentiments so fully
that we give place TO it3 article en-
tire. II says: "If the aforesaid or
Sans will put themselves in the place
Of the people OF South Carolina, they
will probably obtain moro impartial
view Of the case. we have repeated
ly declared, and now declare again,
that there is no State in the North,
nor even Massachusetts or Kansas,
overwhelmingly Republican as they
are, that would endure for three
months what Sonth Carolina endured
for eight years. If negroes had done
in either Of the former States what
they did in tie latter, the last one OF
them would have been drivcd across
The border. The original Yankees
in Massachusetts and the cmporlcd
variety in Kansas would have risen
In mass to rid themselves Of this un-
bcarablc nuisance. And the nuisance
once gone, they would have died rath-
cr than allow it 10 rclurn. South
Carolina will do no more, but she
may have to do less. She may have
to yield to negro supremacy backed
by federal power, but neither chg nor
any other Sohtlcrn Stute will ever
wear that yoke second time unless
it is rivctcd by federal layonets.
This is the simple solemn truth, and
the Republican party may as we'll
take due notice thereof and govern
itself accordingly. Hereafter, if not
'huckcd and gagged by q standing
army, the South will be ruled bv the
intelligence, the capital, ar,l the cn
er9y OF tac country; in other words,
by The white population. Afr;canizcd
calpct-baggcry has had lis day there,
and long and dirty day it was, but
here will be~ no more Of it ut any
price, unless the South is garrisoncd
rs conquered territory. Stlf-prcs-
crvalion is tho highest of all laws,
and self-prcservation demands that
the oli!icai pyramid shall hcncer,,th
stand upon its base, and not upon lis
apex" These are burning words, and
we think they fully represent the sen
tmcnL Of our people. Negro rule in
South Carolina is one Of the things OF
the past.

Real Estate as Security.

Heretofore the National Banks
have been allowed by law to loan
their funds only TO holders Of bonds
and stocks, vi 10 suc! persons as were
able to command good personal sccu-
rily. BY this arrangement the agri-
cultural districts, and especially the
South, which needs hep TO build up
its waste places aud TO develop its re-
sources, have been denied The privi-
legc the North and commercial com
munilcs have SO long exclusively en-
joy ch. The rCasol, for such IN eX-
elusive policy, with regard TO the
funds in National Banks, at first, was
doubtless TO strengthen Government
bonds. 1t was believed that the per-
maIrncy Of the Government could be
best secured by maintaining the full
value Ct her bonds, and this value
could be maintained by making the
bonds the only security upon which
money might be borrowed. This doc
trinc, an error from the beginning, is
rapidly giving place to the only true
principle that has ever given the de-
sired result. In European countries
tie wealth Of nations consist mainly
in the value Of real estate, and that
government is strongest which main
tains that valuc ut the hiShcaL stand
ard. England is the best proof Of The
lru Il CT this proposition, and money
car IS readily be obtained upon real
estate as security rs on bonds or
stock or personal guarantees. The
United States is at last beginning to
learn valuable lesson from our Eu-
ropean nei9lIbols and her statcsn cn
are now trying TO devise plans by
which The farmers Of the country may
obtain money from the National
Banks on their landed property as
collateral security. Such an arrange
ment will not only enable our agricul-
turi>t Is to To improve their estates and
thus increase their value, but TO buy
their supplies ut cash prices and thus
dimipi.h their expenses. A bill to
This effect is now before Congress, "a
rorahly reported on hy the Commit
tee on Banking and Currency, with
reasonable claLccs Of being law.
Our Immediate representative Mr.
OConnor is using every effort 10
press the hill successfully through.
1T is reported that Il large number Of
Republicans favor the measure, which
together with the Democratic vote
will insure its ratification. When
this is done the South will enter upon
better era and will hc able TO COM

The Legis.. ature.

The great need for IL short txtrl
session seems to have given way
under the ienrs Of hasly legislation, ,
and our ativcs have ling cred
in Columbia longer than was expect
cd when the session began. Indeed
there is enough work already intro.
duccd TO employ :,:onth or more to
digest it. The Blue Ridge Railroad
bill, which excited sach warm dis
cussion on Saturday last, has passed,
but shcrn Of all its objection able fca-
tures. The state gives 10 ail to the
scheme except to exempt the road
from taxation for three years il it hc
completed within that time. The ne
ccss!ty for q registration of voters
was not seen by Il majority Of the
members and hence no law providing
for one is passed. The supply and
appropriation bills in their leading
features remain unchanged. The
taxes for state purposes will he ! Sd
mill" C ic,. chansce have been made
in county taxes bu: none for Orange
burg. 1t is probable that the bill to
prevent the carrying OF concealed
deadly weapons will get through and
become a law. The Legislature will
probably adjourn to-day.

HOG Cholera.

This disease, variously known in
different localities by the names of
sssine plague, hog fever, hog typhoid,
or hoy disease, and in science rs
pneumo-entcritis, has hrunmc so COM
mon, ms we'll as destructive, in every
part Of the country that the Agr!cul,

in the United States for forty years,
having been brought from Holland
about the year 1889 to New York,

West. Now it is SO universal in its en-
iStcncc and so fatal in its effects as
to be n serious calamity in every sec

The best judgment founded upon
experience and actual calculation
makes the fatality Of the disease de-
Gilcdly unfavorablc to the large ba-
con interest Of the country. Among
the pigs OF less than three months old
the mortality is.sct down at 90 to 100
per cent. ; among the shoats from
three to seven months old, ut 73 to
90 per cent; and in Older hogs, in
good condition and naturally strong,
mt 40 10 so per cent. The mortality
is most favorable in those few c: scs

fined to the respiratory organs and
