O'BrIen's Estate-RepOrf OF the Referee
Chinese to be Replaced with Whit
GirIs--Death.


SAN Francisco, February 17th.-Wm
A. Stuart, the referee appointed by the Pro-
bate Court to examine the account of ]. G.
Flood and James V. Coleman, executors Of
the estate of the late w. S. O'Brien, has filed
his report. He overrules most of the objec-
lions of John II. Burke, and recommends
that the account be allowed as presented, ex-
cept as to the advances to Mrs. Coleman and
Mrs. McDonough, residuary legatees, re-
spectively S736, 437 81 and 1896, OLA Sc. AS
to them the referee concludes that they were
paid in good faith to enable said legatees to
effect compromise with the brother of de-
ceased, and submits that under probate prac-
tice such advances can only be allowed subject
to the final outcome of the estate, and that
there will be that amount coming to said
! legatees on final distribution. The referee
has not inquired into the relation of Flood
| and Coleman as executors of the estate, and
not as to the relation of Flood as partner
of deceased, supposing that as executors they
have accounted for the property received
| from Flood as the surviving partner. Beyond
that he does not consider it his province
to go.

several elections to be held. We have been
working under the plurality rule, and persons
getting 800 Or 400 votes cut of 1000 may
thus be nominated where the candidates are
numerous. 1t is better tlis way, perhaps,
than to have the trouble. cxctcmcnt and
annoyance Of several elections This is
especially true MS to county officers; for these
officers having nothing to do with law making
or politics, and they being generally required
to give heavy bonds. there is little danger
that The public welfare will suffer through
county officials. In fact az t. such Offices
there is litlc need Of nomination, for no

Proceedings of tho County Demo
cratic Convention.

WALHALLA, s. c., May Is, 1880.
The Democratic County Convention met in
the Court House to-day and was called to order
at o'clock a. NJ. by ". C. Keith, Chairman.
The roll Of delegates was called and eighty
answered TO their names, representing nineteen
Clubs in the County.
On motion, the convention went into an cleo
ticn, by acclamation, Of permanent officers for
the ensuing two years, The following are the
new oilicers Col. Robt a. Thompson, President;
Col }. J. Norton, lst Vice President; Capt. A.
Il. Broylcs. 81 Vice President, and W. j. Strib-
ling, Secretary and Treasurer.
The Executive committee was not appoint ed,
a resolution being passed directing each club,
pursuant 10 the requirement of the constitution,
to nominate member from its own number to
form this committee, BY the next meeting of
this convention, when tho committee will be
elected. In the meantime the old committee
continues TO act.
1t was then resolved that The thanks of the
convention are returned to Col. w. G. Keith, the
retiring President, forthe Jealous and able man
ner in which he has performed the duties of his
Office for tho past tonr years
s. Y Strib'ing, a. II. Broylcs and D. A. Smith
were then elected by acclamation as delegates TO
tho approaching State Convention, with J. w.
Livingston, John G. Cary and J. w, Shcor as
alcrnatcs.
Tho following resolutions, offered by b. Frank
Sloan, werc then passed by q unanimous vote:
Resolved ls, That il is the sense of this con-
vcntion that it would be unwse for the Demo.
cratic party, at the approaching State Convene
tion, to make nominations for State officers.
Resolved I'd, That it is the opinion of this
convention that tho convention to nominate
State officers should be held on late day in
the month Of August, in order that the people
may be saved the trouble and expense of long,
dcmoralizng politica! campaign.
Delegates TO The Congressional and Judicial
Conventions were then elected on condition tlat
if this convention Should meet again before the
meeting Of those convcniol il has the power TO
remove the delegates nov elected and elect

stitution cannot fail of great usefulness. We
certainly wish it success, and hopo to SEQ the
day when its high reputation vii! attract students
from many Of our sister States.
Tho tuition is FREQ 10 every citizen of tho
State, and the Board OF Trustees is authorized
to establish from timo 10 timo MS many scholar
ships MS the income of tho institution will justify
TO be apportioned to students from various Sec
tions of tho State. The salary Of the Professors
is betrayed FROM tho interest on tho fund,
($l0l, ,900) realized from The sule of land scrip
donated to the State by Congress for the purpose
of cndowing an institution for instruction in
agriculture and tho mechanic arts, the interest
only TO be used. This fund makes the institu-
ton independent and gives it pcrmancncy as
we'll as the power to secure experienced and
able professors.
We do not think it initiates at all against our
chartered literary colleges in tho State. Every
parent, who is abe to do SO, will graduate his
son at one Of these institutions and then let him
take course in tho University. We will then
have our young men no! only cluoatcd, but also
instructed in the practical business Of life. If
tho University is properly conducted we may
expect to SEQ in ten TO twenty years great
chhpge in the mode of farming throughout tho
State. Science, knowledge of the soils and of
what elements they need TO give them the
highest fertility, will take the place Of The guess
work system OF the present, and we may expect
proportionatc increase Of production aud
wealth. Many persons, too will get better
knowledge OF mincralogy than can be had in
our present colleges, which may result in the
discovery of mines and tho development Of
much unknown mineral wealth in our State.
We hail tic opening of this old institution as an
agricultural coilcgn.

The Last Of Thomas White.

- SpARTANBURG, S. c., May II, 1885,
10 day, at II O'Clock, Thomas White was
hanged for tho murder of Pcto Hawkins,
colorcd, last November. Tho execution
was conducted privately in stable in roar
OF tho Jail. White met death bravcly,
protesting his innocence to tho last. His
last words implicated Dick Byrd, the bar
keeper, who made him drunk and lent the
pistol. lie warned those present against
"hlskoy aud bad company, declaring they
had brought him to the gallows Ills neck
was broken by the fall aud in thirty min.
ntes ho was cut down and life pronounced

Iho South Carolina University,

The Board Of Trustees of this institution met
at lhc Office OF the Governor on the eth instant
ana elected as the Faculty Of the Agricultural
College the following gentlemen: YIN. Porchcr
Miles, Of Virginia, President and Professor of
English I.ilcralErc, with salary Of SO, 500; DR..
Joseph LeContc, of the University of California,
Professor of Geology, M.lcralogy and Botany,
salary $500; Maj. Benjamin Sloan, of Adgcr
College Professor of Mathematics and Natura,
Philosophy salary $1,000; Dr. VIM Eurucy, Of
John Hopkins University. Baltimore, Professor
OF Chemistry, salary S2,000 Mr.. Jesse Jones,
of Charleston. Foreman of the Mechanical De-
parmcnt, salary $3.50. The election of Fore
man OF the Farm was postponed until The meet
lng III August The Faculty, we understand,
Nil meet in July for the purpose of arranging
the curriculum and such othcr matters as are
necessary TO the opening of the institution in
the fail. In August Tie regular meeting Of thc
Board Of Trustees vii, be held.
We regard the opening Of this institution one
Of the brightest hopes Of The future of South
Carolina. 1t will supply long needed want in
our State and enable our young men either with
orwithont literary course to got knowledge
Of those practical pursuits Of life which develop
tho wealth and prosperity Of people. Tho
Claflin University at Orangcburg is for the
blacks and the South Carolina University for tho
whites. Both are devoted chiefly TO instruction
in agriculture and tho mechanic arts The
buildings and grounds ut Columbia arc we'll
adapted to the purpose. As many rs 225 students
can get good rooms in the college buildings, the
library if not equal in the number of volumes,
is unsurpassed in judicous selection by any
library in the United States, the State also owns
sufficient land adjoining tho college 10 erect
workshops, if desired, and to make q good cx-
pcrimental farm. The institution is also pro-
vded with complete chemical and philosophical
apparatus and n large collection of minerals and
fossils. The faculty is well selected Prof
Miles has wide reputation in literature, Prof
Sloan has no superior in the branch assigned TO
him. while Dr.. Joseph LcContc is host within
Himself, and is perhaps at this day ono of the
best Informed men in the important branches
assigned 10 him in the United States. Wc know
nothing of tho two others elected, but if thcy
will Of oil compare with those mentioned tho in.
