The Charleston Fair.

The Industrial Exhibition Of the
Agricultural Society Of South Caro-.
lima will I've opened ut the Society S
new hall in Charleston on the 9Th
and closed on the 17,h Of December
next. The succsss Of previous cxhi.
6ilions and the many now and at
tractive features offered Ivy the socic-
ty this year warrant The expectation
Of n large crowd Of visitors from every
section Of tho Stata. Indeed more
extended efforts have been made by
the Board Of Directors to make this
Fair 4 most gratifying success than
ever before. Besides the induccm cnts
held out by the Board, the low rate S
of travel on railroads and steamboa,s IS
arranged for this occasion, will. AT
tract thousands Of our citizens to
visit the city both for sight seeing
and business transactions. The mid
die of the business season, the ucar
approach Of Christmas and tic al trac-
tions Of the Industrial Exhibition COM
blncd, will make visit TO Charleston
during the ten days of the Fair espc-
cially profitable 10 our citizens.

a First Glass Listener.

General Garfield, the President
elect, says that for the next few
months he intends 10 be "a first-class
listener" 10 the multitude OF advisers
who press about him with their kind
offices. This is certainly refreshing
TO Conkling, Cameron &, Co., who
expect to have. q controlling inilu-
cnce upon the next administration.
Whether General Garfield possesses
the firnness 10 shape his own course
remains TO be seen. He will certain
~ have the best opportunity TO show
it; and his intimate friends say no
President ever entered upon the Office
"morc free from entanglcments of
every sort" than he. There are
grounds 10 believe, and General Gar.
field knows it, that the efforts Of Gen
cral Grants friends looked more 10
'hc latter's candidacy in 1884 than
TO General Gariield's election IN 1880.
This may give linn an Independence
which will make his administration
more liberal than that Of Mr.. Hayes or
any Of his Republican predecessors.
at all events The South has nothing
to lose and much to gain bysan Jude
pendent administration.

Another Count.

1t seems as if the Republican lend
crs Of the North cannot accept as
truth the large increase in the popu-
lation Of South Carolina. They have
80 constantly protested against its
acceptance that Commissioners Walk
er, at the suggestion Of President
Hayes, has sent expert cnumcrators
here with instructions to 60 from
reported OH The lists can be found.
1t is easy 10 ACCEPT the Radical farce
Of 1870 rs truth, but not the Demo
ccatic reality. We hope after this
new investigation the Stalwarts will
be satisfied. -

try. A removal or change in the
uioi'ah OF life will soon become abso-
l"tely. necessary. The civilization
apu progress Of the white race will
demand it. Already a sentiment,
even at the North, is rapidly obtain
ing which will finally demand the su-
prcmacy OF the white over the colored
race, and the consummation Of this
demand is not very distant in the fu-
turc. 1fa removal, to tho. West or
else where is adjddged 70 be the rem

slhnology Which demands the con.

No inferior race has ever been civili-
zed, or if civilized, has ever main-
tanned its civilization, without con
tact with the white race. 'r
The destiny Of race is too impo or
tant matter TO be trifled with on the
lnercst prctcnses.

Sound Advice.

Mr.. b. p. Chatiield, Northern
settler in Aiken, and recently an
elcctor on the Republican ticket in
this State, advises the negroes "to
keep out ofpolilics, work, economize,
accumulate property, educate their
children and show to the world that
they arc able to compete with the
white race in business" By this he
does not mean they should not vote,
.hnt--soie only fer -ccempal enS> men.
How different is this from the wild
fanaticism of Rev. A. Webster, who
would advise the colorcd man to his
nttcr undoing in order that he, Web
ster, might grow fat on the spoils.

New York, Sep. 2i.-The Herald
publishes a letter Of a correspondent
who accompanied Schwatka's expedi-
tion To King Williams land. The story
refers more particularly 10 the incl
dents OF the sledge journey. This is
supplemented, however, by the discoy-
cry OF relics aud the examination Of na-
tive witnesses, which lead to the sad
conclusion that the fate OF the officers
and crews of Erebus and Terror was
terrible, even 10 the utmost limit Of
imagination, and that the records OF
Franklin's expedition are lost beyond
reco sery. Old men and women OF Es-
quimaux tell the story OF those who
were doubtless the last survivors of the
unfortunate vessels. The minuteness
Of the detail and the evident truthful
ness which places their fate beyond

leader, OF the large number OF men who
constituted the crews. Nothing could be
