DINA Coast Lands, and few days ago 1t was
handed to the Agricultural Society of South Car
DINA nc a meeting when the feasibility OF utiliz-
ing the abandoned coast lands Of that State for
the culture of tea was under discussion. Ac-
cording 20 Mr. Forbes, who assumes to speak
with authority, climate, soil, and rainfall are
all favorable in the district alluded to. and
only capital and enterprise are needed to make
the cultivation of tea a remunerative INDUS
try. Mr. Forbes details the methods
of planting, cultivating picking rolling,
firing and sorting, and estimates that
he could land Grst-class South Carolina teas IN
Europe at cost of from - cents to Is cents
pound, and he claims that his Judgment
ought to have some value, rs the annual ont
turn from his plantation amounts to 100000
pounds He offers also to furnish tea seed OF
the very best quality.
The action taken by the Society was charac-
teristic 1t did not resolve to send for seed
and set about producing the cheering bever-
age But it instructed The Senators and
Representatives from South Carolina to
urge Congress to vote grant OF
money for the establishment of an ex-
detrimental tea-farm near Charleston. 1t
may be tnaC the oOu'h NaIoiih" ASl-
cultural Society would have firmer faith
in the deiveIanccs of Mr. Forbes if his
knowledge of South Cardinals - soil, climate
"and rainfall had been experimental, instead
of having been communicated to him by the
Coast Lands Secretary in letter to which this
dissertation on tea culture was response.
But, after ell, agriculture of the best type
usually makes some effort to help itself before
il sits down to rest in warm place and an
nQunces It's intention to go in for the old nag
and an appropriation.

The Anti-Tilden Conference in Albany
talked peace. but meant war. Behind the
resolutions and speeches protesting an
ardent desire for union, there appears
the knowledge that union is impos-
sibc, with the determination not to have
union if union means Tilden. The array of
Democrats present included few men of dis
tinction, and none who have not become known
MS active enemies of the best hated man
in the Democratic party; but 1t repre-
scented the same bitter and steadiast political
force which last year gave Mr. Kelly 1900
votes for Governor, in defiance Of the tradi-
tional Democratic discipline. MIR. Keily's
cheerful admission that the conference meant
Tammany State Convention and Tammany
State delegation to the National Democratic
Convention, shows that he Is confident OF
the undated strength of his following.
This time, at least he would seem to be
taking a shrew d political course. If he
can hold a large convention and send
a respectable delegation TO the National
Convention, as n pledge to the Democratic
party that Tilden cannot carry New OTk,
the National Convention will have cause
TO reflect before nominating the man whom
these men oppose. Ii they are ready to
say that they will fight Tilden even
should he be nominated, their demonstration
might have an influence which it Will never
have if they announce their willingness to
abide by the decision of the National Con-
vention. Perhaps this is what the resolution
affirming the right to bolt means. But Democratic
Conventions are mighty onsartain." 1t may be
that the anger of the Syracuse Convention at
Tammany's attempted dictation will be repeated
on larger scale, without regard to conse-
quences, and that Mr.. Kelly will find he has
only contributed to Mr.. Tlden's triumph.

1t may be questioned whether the country
has appreciated fully the remarkable self
restraint which the people of Maine
have shown during the recent attempt
at revolution by fraud. Mr.. Blaine de-
scribed it in striking way when he said in
last nights speech that the lawful State
Government had finally been established
"without firing gun, without she'd
"ding a drop of blood without strlk-
"a blow, and without one disorderly
assemblagen On the other hand, Mr.. Blaine
drew discouraging picture of the state OF poiti-
cal morality among the Democratic and Green
back leaders in Maine. He enumerated 10y name

as having disappToved of the fraud.
and could only count up nine. None
of these were known outside the state,
and five of them were men who declined
local offices, or refused TO act with Garcelon's
accomplces in their Legislature. Only one
Democrat IN the City of Augusta could be in
duced to sign the petition for the submits
sion of questions to the Supreme Court. The
one encouraging feature in this picture is Mr.
Blaine's belief that the masses Of the Demo-
cratic party are disgusted with the conduct Of
their leaders, and will speak their mind at the
next election.

The clause in the Berlin Treaty about the Greek

the york of VI. WaddingtOn, the late French MIN

the new boundary shall be- but only refers to the
protocol of the treaty, in which the Powers eX-
pressed the wish that the soverciQns of
Turkey and Greece might agree on the line
