Francis Murphy and His Enemies.

rniauelpnlA rTeSs
Mr.. Francis Murphy. the temperance advocate,
has been holding mass meetings in Ohio, at
which he has lectured and circulated the pledge
to total abstinence He has steadily refused to
have anything to do with the political Prohibi-
tionists, but has worked perseveringly and effect
lively in his own way. For this he has excited
the hostility Of the thirdparty leaders, and they
are improving every occasion to abuse him. The
Rev. DR.. Leonard, who was the Prohibition can
didate for Governor of Ohio last year, said, at
the Prohibition State convention last week, that
he did not consider Francis Murphy knave,
but that he was being piloted by rascals,p or. in
other words. that he was in the pay of the Re-
publicans. Mr.. Murphy, in q courteous denial
of this charge, says that 't is very conspicuous,
just now. that the leaders of the third party hate
individuals more than they hate rum.' and he
cites the fact that, so far as he Knows, they
never. circulated pledge or got q man to sign
one The disinterested efforts Mr.. Murphy has
made in the cause of temperance entitle his
work to much more credit than the abuse Of such
ranting demagogue as Leonard.

rnE JOINT SUMNER MEETING.

SOME Interesting work, Despite the overshad-
owing Importance Of the Democratic Con-
| vcntion.
The Joint summer meeting of the State
Grange and the State Agricultural So
cicty, Ill Columbia, was completely over
ShadoWcd by the nominating Conycn-
ton. Many of its delegates were also
delegates to the latter Convention. and
could not attend the sessions of the
| Farmers Convention. Others, although
not connected with the political Convcn-
ton, preferred the excitement of being
present while the nominations were
being made to participating in the farm
crs meeting and hearing farmers talk.
The Joint summer meeting was to have
held Il session ut 9 o'clock on Friday
morning, but SO few of the members
made their appearance that recess was
taken until 3 o'clock that afternoon. At
this session very excellent essay, enti-
tied ''Somc Thoughts on Our Agricul-
tulal Interests was read by DR.. T.. j.
Rcmbcrt, of Sumter. The essay touched
upon many important State and Ma
tlonal questions The extreme hardship
and injustice OF the protective tariff was
dwclt upon. The silver question was
also touched upon.
At the conclusion of this essay, State
Chemist i. T.. Chazal was requested by
the Convention to give them some in
formatlan about the analysis of fcrtiliZ-
crS. The request was complied with.
At 80 the meeting adjourned until $50
p. m.
The night session was largely attended
The committee appointed in Charleston
last February to select suitable place
for the Interstate Agricultural Eucamp-
mcnt reported that they had chosen
Spartanburg, us that city Odorcd moro
advantages than any other place which
had competed for the cncampmcnt.
\ resolution was passed requesting the
Board OF Agriculture to allow the Com
missioner Of Agriculture to exhibit min
erals, tlmbcrs and other products of the
state at this encampmcnt, to be held in
August, 1887. The committee appointed
lor tho purpose reported that the North
Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee Apri
cultural Societies had been communi-
Gated with and had expressed their will
ingncsS to unite with South Carolina in
having this encampmcnt.
Gen. Johnson Hagood read m essay
upon mixed husbondry. If the essay
could have been heard by all the farm
crs i'll South Carolina, it would have
done moro good than dozen farmer
conventions. General Hagood had pre-
pared the essay carefully and in such n
manner that it could be understood nv
any one. He gave numerous examples
of what had been donowith hay, melons,
fruits truck farming and cattle raising
His own experience on a farm since 1878
was rocited in an interesting and in
stllctlyo manner, and he clearly illus
tratcd that n diversity of products was
more profitable and safe than one or two
crops.
Colonel John w. II. Pope addressed
the Convection upon the tariff and its
effects on Southern farmers. Colonel
Pope showed that the inhabitants of this
state are paying $12 q head each year to
the Federal Government. Ho suggested
that if the people complained OF the
small State tax tho Lunatic Asylum
should be enlarged Immediately.

DEATH OF SAMUEL j. TILDEN.
A Prominent Figure I'm the History Of Amcri-

YoNKERs, N. Y, August 4.-SamuelJ.
Illden died at Greystone this morning,
at ten minutes before 8 o'clock. He had
been enjoying his usual good health up
10 last Saturday evening. While sitting
on the stoop of his residence, at sundown
on that evening, he was taken with
slight chill, which settled on his stomach
and bowels, producing inflammation,
from which he suffered all night. In tho
morning he was slightly better and was
able to ride out. On Sunday evening he
felt much worse and continued to grow
weaker, but until last night there were
no fears of the consequences. This
morning it itbecamc apparent that the end
was near. DR.. Charles T.. Simonds and
Miss Gould, relative of Mr.. Tilden,
were at his bedside. A few moments be-
fore he died he tried to speak, but only
moved his lips, failing to mako any
sound. He passed away quietly and
peacefully.
