Some time ago Mr.. Tom Tanner was

people of Georgetown concluded to get

Failing i'll the latter scheme they got up

lion OF the day and was treated with all
the courtesy that President Cleveland
could have desired. lie was much fiat

Of Georgetown the most friendly and

"A BONANZA IN BEANS.
APr"ctical Farmers Experiments with IA
Now Food and Forage Crop.
(From the GrcenYillo NewsN

|
The popular idea of bean crop is a
few rows of the plants in u garden in
tended to supply the family table for the
vegetable season, and a field Of beans
would only be looked for in an immense
truck farm. But b. L. Perry has been
experimenting on his Sans Souci farm
near tho city with now variety of bean,
which he believes is calculated to revolu-
tionize agriculture in this country by
furnishing wonderfully prolific, valua-
bic and cheap food and feed crop that
can bo adapted to any soil.
The now vegetable is called tho "SciA
Bean" 1t came from China, whence
civilized Europe has captured SO many
OF Its most valuable discoveries, and was
introduced i'll Europe Mt tho Ficnna Ex-
position. Tho cultivation Of tho bean
spread rapidly i'll Europe, whence it
naturally spread to tins country. Mr..
Terry saw accounts Of its remarkable
growth and great food value, and along
with Col. Wash Shell, of Laurcus, he
ordered last fall Il lcck Of tie "Suja's"
paying 81 30 Il peek. He planted
al acre aud last fall gathered 80 bushels
exclusive of eleven bushels wasted.
which he sold for 81 peek or 81 a
bushol, making &l5G as return for the
acre.
Mr.. Perry is delighted with the new
crop and has great faith in its possibih-
ties. The bean will grow III any soil, he
says. Ii doc" well i'll low ground too
wet Tor anything else and yet 1t is hprdv
enough to stand the scvcrcst drought.
1T tr,Iurcs less cultivation than cotton,
beng planted i'll rows three feet aDuIr
and two feet apart in the drill With three
stalks in hill. The beans arc about the
SIZE OF COW pr"S, yellow when dried. and
with very thin shell. Tney como three
III pod aud the pods grow thicEly on IL
StalK ABOUT ike au ordinary cotton stalk
The plant sheds its leaves, furnishing
leftlllzing material for the ground equal
to COW pea vines, and the crop is Iur-
vested by pulling the stalks up by the
roots and storing them in barn until
they arc cured. linen the beans ca.ily
shell out, and the stalks can be fed to
cattle, making feed which experts, Mr..
tcrry says, consider equal to Timothy
hay.
The great value Of the SOFA bean, how,
ever, comes in tho bean itself. 1t pro.
dnces Proliticaliy, making on rich ground
with good cultivation, $50 bushels NJ
acre. The fruit, according to analysis,
contains twice as much nutritive matter
as either corn or COW peas. AS feed for
chttle it is far bottcr, Mr.. Perry says,
than COW peas, anu it makes EpIcndid
table dish. The beans are so rich that
they can be cooked il water alone, not
requiring any butter.
Mr.. Perry expects to plant several
acres in the beans tins season. lie has
had demands fuI more than his last

country for farmers who lutvc stock.

PRESBYTERIAN Reuuiuu.

One OF tho most interesting matters
III yesterdays American was the cores
pondrncc between tho reunion commit
zee" Oh the Presbyterian General Assem-
hlY and tho Southern General Assembly.
| Tins correspondence embOdies the differ
onc@H which have prevented the consoli-
dGtIOn of The two great branches of Pres
byt"Tiansm i'll this country, and the
letters will be submitted to the coming
General Assemblies. No religious news
OF the day is moro interesting, and no
one can read the expressions from the
committees without being impressed by
the cordial feeling and deep religious
earncstncss that have marked the delib-
crotionS of tho eminent men who have
handled difficult subject so smoothly.
Briefly, tho Southern committee asks
the Northern communicative use the
sectional ndjectives merely for conve-
nlencc-hOw its Church stands on the
following points of dotrine: J., Spirit
uallty Of the Church. 2, The relation
OF the colOrcd people in tho South to the
Church, or their incorporation into it.
$, The powers and responsibilities of
boards, and to what extent these boards
are under control Of tho General Assem-
| bly,. 4, The attitude Of opinion touch
|
Faith which moro specifically involve tho
great system Of truth known as the Cal
whistle, and particularly whether there
Is traccable any distinct tincture of such
! pclhginn and semi-Pelagian heresies as
wore matter for controversy in 1887.
On the first point tho differences be-
tween tho two assemblies are not great.
On the second point they radically dis
agree. "ln our Church., says the South
crn committee, "entire independence
Of the coiored people in their church Or
| ganlzatlOn Is the policy which has been
adopted, coupled with the largest posi-
bic measure of aid, spiritual, intellectual
and material, which can be given by our
Church and people to our colored
BRETHREN" Tho Northern committee
replies: "Our Church is not in favor
Of sotting off its colorcd members into
Il separate, independent organization.
We believe that we have q great work to
do among tho colored people for their
own salvation and for tho good of the
country, and this to be done by recog-
niZinB those who arc in the Church as
entitled to all the rights and privileges
that are involved in Church member-
ship and ordination"
This expression is modified so as to
leave present coored presby teries in
btatu quo, if they desired it, with repre-
s"utntlvcs in the General Assembly.
Upon the third point the disagreement
is not radical, and upon the fourth point
there is no special difference. It can be
seen, however, that both committees
hold tonaciously to their doctrines and
policies. Their hearts seen to be for re-
unIon, but thoir consciences keep them
back.
1T would be great event that would
witness the consolidation of Presbyte-
rioniSm in this country, with its thirteen
thousand churches, it's ten thousand
ministers, and it's million and more mem.

THE FARMERS AELfASCE.
The Growth of tho Order In this State
Some of the Leading Features

The Growth of tho Order In this State.
Some of the Leading Features.
We clip the following about the above
order from the Marion Index:
| Tho Farmers Alliance is an orpaniza-
ton which had its origin in the State of
Texas about ten years ago. In that
Stato 1T has grown rapidly and taken O
deep and strong hold which argues we'll
or It's future success. Interest in it has
been maintained from the beginning.
and after tho lapse of ten years il Is
found to bo still growing in numbers
aud influence. 1t has spread into other
States of the South, and in Louisiana
and North Carolina it has met with un-
usual success. The last named State has
oecn we'll organized and has several
hundred sub alliances which count their
numbers by tens of thousands
In South Carolina, so far, little has
been done towards the establishment of
the various counties. In Marion county
several sub-alliances have been estab.
iishod, and county alliance has been
perfected. With tho exception of one
sub alliance in Horny no other branches
OF the organization have been planted in
tho State. Tho speed Of the organiza-
ton and its growing influence in tho
community give it a power and promi-
nenco that demand and deserve moro
than passing notice.
n careful study Of the constitution of
the General Alliance will fail to reveal
one thing to which reasonable objection
can he made. Its objects, aims and pur-
poses arc strictly legitimate. More than
thIS they are laudable, and if thew are
carried out in the manner and spirit CON
tcmplated by the original leaders of the
organization they can but promote the
int1reSE OF the agricultural class in every
community.
Its members are banded together for
mutual Improvement, for education, for
Sho cultivation of non-partisan spirit and
to suppress personal, local sectional and
natlHum prcjudices and all unhealthfuI
rivalry and selfish ambition.
There can be no moro laudable nur-
pose than this in au organization Of this
nature. There is no disposition To
antngonizo other classes of people. The
! spirit OF tho organization is friendly TO
oil professions and vocations Of men.
Its primary object, Of course, is to i'm
! prove the condition of the farmers of the
country ana to promote their interests
ns much as may be possible, but it does
not seek the cOnSummation of this end by
working harm and injury to others. 1t
recognizes the rights and privileges of
othcr classes Of citizens and inculcates
and seeks to enforce the respect due to
every class and individual of society.
Tho Alliance deprecatcs and seeks to
mlnlfy the prejudice which exists, or is
supposed to exist, between the different
classes of men, and while it seeks pri-
mNrlly the good of one class its ultimate
o"jcct is the good of all the people with
out respect to class or occupation,
There no hostility to either merchant.
lawyer or banker and no disposition or
desire to do aught that would injure the
Legitimate business of these or of other
classes.

will punish us. If amid all opposition
we persevere, God will care for us"
We msy therefore conclude that
wherever the gospel of Christ is preach
ed and opposed, tho grounds of the op-
position must be essentially tho same.
The truths which faithful ministers
evolve and enforce from the HOLY
Scriptures are the samo that Christ and
the apostles inculcntcd. The effect must
be essentially the samo in all places of
his dominion. But the gospel, however
opposed by tho many and slightod by
none, is never preached in vain It has
always been and always will be the pow
er OF God and the wisdom of God ia the
salvation of some. Supported and en-
couraged by the words and spirit Of
their divine Lord and Master, His true
and willing servants have never been
ashamed nor afraid to appear i'll the de-
tense Of His cause, whose right it is TO
reign, against all opposition and through
all dangers.
"Stand up! stand up for Jesus,
Ge soldiers Of tho cross:
Lift high His royal banner
1t must not suffer loss;
From victory unto victory
His army shall be led,
ILL every foe is vanquished
And Christ is Lord indeed"

The Episcopal Conference

One Of the lay delegates to the Episcopal
conference which was held on "Wednesday,
in relation to The coming Diocesan Con
vcnii0n, was asked yesterday if he could
give for publication some Of the details Of
The conference.
He said that he had no reason 10 with
hold any information us 10 any action taken
BY the conference, for the reason that no
action was taken. Asa matter Of fact, The
basis of Whatever agreement might here
after be arrived at was not Formulated by
the conference. There were no resolutions
passed expressive Of the views submitted
by any or all Of the members Of the body
lie said, however, that nearly every mem
Der, lay aud clerical, had views and these
views were stated and discussed. The con
ference, he said, was not sufficiently repre-
sentative, as to number, to warrant any
definite action, which could only be had
when other delegates, lay and clerical
should have been heard from. He under
stood that such members would have been
been heard from yesterday, and it was then
| expected that the general opinion Of repre-
ScntntivCS, lay and clerical, could so far be
arrived at that plan of action could be put
in shape
This delegate declined to give his own
views as expressed in the conference; but
he had no objection to stating that, from
the temper and tone and carnc5tncss Of the
diacu- siunS, there was no doubt that there
would be entire harmony at the next Do
ccS0n Convention.
The information was also obtained, from
member Of St Philips congregation, that
the divisions in the diocese would be re
! COnCilcd by the adoption Of the Virginia
compromise, or rather plan, whereby, as il
IS stated, the COlOrcd minister would be de

WHO SUES THE DECEASED GENERALS
WIDOW.

Gen. Adam Badeau, who has brought
suit against the widow of Gen. Grant for
compensation for services claimed to have
been rendered in the preparation of the
Generals memoirs, is 81 years old. He was
born at New Rochelle, WeStchester county,
New York, and belongs to one of the old
Euguenot families which settled that town.
Badeau was newspaper man at the time
the war broke out. He was writer, per-
haps an editor, on NodHS Sunday Times
when be enlisted III the army, and was the
author of a bright little book on the
experiences of vagabond AT the open
ing of the Vicksburg campaign he was Cap
tam of Volunteers and assigned to DUTY as
aid-de-camp to Mai. Gen. U. S. Grant, for
whom at that date-and until in 1869 he
went to London as Consul-General-he
acted as Secretary. Previous to this en-
gagement he had been wounded at Port
Hudson and promoted for gallant conduct
in that action; and his reputation for cour-
age induced Gen. Grant to procure his SER
vices on his staff. Badeau'S business at
headquarters was that of confidential
amanuensiS or writing hand of the com
mander. He was promoted to be a Brigadier-
General of Volunteers and a Captain III the
regular army, and is on the retired list,
drawing two-thirds of the regular pay of
his rank. While Gen. Grants aide he had
the rank of Colonel, in which Office, it is
pfoDable, he was retired. In 1863 ne was
appointed Secretary OF Legation, London,
under Motley. The next year he was re-
tired. President Grant made him Consul
General to London. where he remained until
recalled by President Garfield. As such he
received salary of $1,000, with fees proba-
bly, amounting to 81 900 more.
He is not a stranger to law courts. Some
years ago a suit was brought in the United
states District Court against him to recover
S10,572 a, elaine to be kept by him while
he was Consul General at London. The re-
suit was verdict in favor of Gen. Badeau.
and this decision was affirmed il the United
States Circuit Court.

MINISTER RESIDENT AT THE HAGUE.
The resignation of Isaac Bell, Minister
Resident to the Netherlands, has been ac-
cepted. 1t will take effect on May 1. Mr.
Bell will return home on account of a press
ure of private business His appointment
was in 1885, long enough ago to give him
time to become popular among the Dutch
folks The newspapers of Holland express
regret at the prospect of losing Mr.. Bell and
his excellent wife. of whose hospitality and
diplomatic courtesy they speak in highly
complimentary terms.
Mr.. Bell, who is about 43 or A years of
age, is the son of Isaac Bell, a public
spirited citizen of New York. He married
sister of James Gordon Bennett, owner of
the New York Herald Up to 1877 he fol-
lowed the business of cotton broker. He
then retired to Newport, R. l., where he
owns a handsome villa. His wife and he
are leaders in the society of that resort, and
their return will be- gladly welcomed.
The Minister at The Hague is fond of
politics He worked hard for the Demo-
cratic ticket in the campaign of 1854. His
caudid8ture a few years ago, for a State
Senatorsh:p proved to be a failure. As a
matter of course he is a well-educated and
very gentie,nanly 1t has now become
question who will succeed him i'll the good
graces of society at The Hague.
