Tennessee is not so seriously
threatened with becoming a Re
publican state that it is necessary
to rush the mourners for a vice.
presidential candidate In the per-
son Of her governor elect. That
election was more due to the stay
at home Democrats, and to the
fact that they did not put out their
best timber, than to any detection
on the part Of the party. The Re-
publicans polled only small vote
In advance Of that polled for Win
stead and far less than they have
polled for president, and even were
this not true, it is not according to
the eternal fitness to rush a man
into the possibilities Of presiden-
tial responsibilities on such slim
grounds. The vice.president, who
may become president, should be
selected for his fitness to I'LL the
higher office should circumstances
call him to fill it. The nomination
OF a man to that office, simply on
account of location and his proba-
bilities Of carrying the votes Of a
doubtful state, Is not a practice
that is to be commended.

There is such thing as overdo-
ing it, just as the ambitious hen
did when she laid herself away in
eggs, all but the bill and tail feath-

ambition will not seize upon the
Secretary in the matter Of laying
United States bonds, now that he
finds out how easily he can do it.

Breckenridge threatens to turn
the tables on his political enemies
by prompting claim to a sena-
torial seat in lieu of the seat in the
house that Owens knocked from
under him. y At least it is affirmed
that he has sufficient grip on the
legislature to name a successor to
Blackburn, even if it is not suf1i-
GENTLY tenacious and broad to cor
raj it for himself. Should the
effort Of the rejected of the Seventh
secure the seat inlthe Senate it will
be disgrace to the state, but it
will be a disgrace that will not at
tach to the heroic women Of the
Ashland district.

There Is likely to be some in

United States paid to Great Brit
ain without any warrant, in the
matter Of Behring sea award. That
claim never was authorized by the
Paris arbitration and the pay ment
Of it by the government.Eof this
country is clear perversion Of the
funds in the treasury to that
amount. That matter needs sift-
Ing to the bottom. Was tia bonus

expression of the English proclivl-

nation, under Democratic rule?

1t is apparent that the currency
agitation is not going to yield any
immediate fruits in legislation,
a I'D that fact understood there will
follow no disturbance Of the tinan-
cial world at present. When the
matter comes up for final adjudi-
cation it will not be decided so
completely in the interests Of Wall
street as it would be, were it now
forced to a conclusion. Events
have demonstrated again and again
that the bond is a little too close
between the administration and
that whirlpool Of financial schemes.
The country at large will not lose
anything by deferring action on a
measure frought with so great pos
sibilities of evil.

The plea is made that the United
States government was not or
ganized to build canals, etc. That
is true, but 1t was constituted to
control commerce and protect its
own interests, and If in the carry
ing on of this work 1t becomes
necessary, as in the case Of the
Nicaragua canal, to engage in
works constructive, there will be
no wisdom or sound national sense
in refusing to do 80. This is a pure
case Of necessity, one in which the
eud amply justifies the means.

The following is a copy of a circular
letter that has been sent by ell leading
cotton factors to the merchants and cot
ton buyers thronghous the country: !:
ssThe cotton trade in this section were
obliged to pay heavy claims the past
season on account of the excessive bag
ging used in covering the bales. The
use of extra bagging has assumed such
proportions and caused US such loss we
will be forced the present season to dock
all bales 1-l6 cents Fer pound where
covering in excess Of the customary six
yards is used. The American, English
and Continental spinners have alike pro-
tested against this over use of bagging,
and If persisted in, considerable trouble
will doubtless arise. Please use your
efforts with the planters and ginners to
have cotton baled with only the usual
two strips of six yards, of two pounds to
the yard" The farmers and ginners
throughout this section should read the
above paragraph carefully and act ac-
,cordingly. The local buyers will have
to be governed by it, and every farmer
who uses more than six yards of bagging
on bale Of cotton will certainly be the
rlOger

A Preventive Of Hog Cholera,

A correspondent in Williamsburg
County reported few days ago that the
farmers in that county had lest many OF
their hogs recently from cholera, and
similar reports have been received this
summer from other counties. We pub
lished early in the year the statement of
q farmer living near Charleston that he
and his neighbors had found certain
CONDITION powder" generally sold in the
city to be an effectual preventive and
cure for the disease, and it is pity,
therefore, that the farmers in other coun-
ties whose hogs have been attacked have
not given the remedy trial. The bull
Ietin Of the Florida Agricultural Depart
ment, just published, reports another
preventive which is used in Polk Coun-
ty, and, as stated, with invariable success.
The report is as follows:
''The pork crop is at least 50percent over
an average. The farmers are keeping their
hogs free from cholera by charcoal fed in
the slops every ten days, not as a cure,
but as preventive. None of those who
have tried It have lost hog or even had
sick one. We advise all farmers to
give it trial and report the results to
the Bulletin. Several persons have used
this remedy for three years in this coun-
ty and have not lost hog, while those
who have not used it have lost all their
hogs"
This appears to be conclusive as to the
virtues of the preventive, and as it is
cheap and can always be made on the
farm, there can be no excuse for not try
ing it when occasion requires.-NeWs and
Courier.

There Is nothing to prevent anyone
concoctng mixture and calling 1t "aar-
saparilla," and there is nothing to prevent
anyone spending good money testing the
stuff; but prudent people, who wish TO be
sure of their remedy, take only Ayers
Sarsaparilla, and so get cured.

Scotland, and left his entire fortune to

When the person who has never seen
a prairie or forest understands that the
fires which have been sweeping through
the counties of the Northwestern lumber
regions moved as swiftly as cyclones run
their courses, fairly clear idea can be
formed as to the reason why the people
of the towns and clearings in the path Of
the flames were unable to summon fire
departments or organize bucket brigades
in time to stop the flames.

protective declarations and announced,
determination to put protective candl-
date in the field in the third congression-

tions declare that the Democratic party
in congress having seen fit to deal almost
death blow to the great sugar and rice
industries of this State and have declared
it to be the policy of the Democratic par
ty to place sugar on the free list, we can
not, in justice to ourselves, vote for any
candidate to represent US in congress
who is not pledged to the protection of
sugar, rice, lumber, salt and all other
great American industries.

The Great Industrial South.

BALTIMORE, ND, September 6.-The
Manufacturers Record of this week says: |:
The encouraging condition of business
and the extent of its renewal in the South
are shown by the bank clearances of sew
eral Southern cities, notably Birming-
ham, Louisville, Memphis and Jackson
Vile. Atthe three cities last named the in
crease for the week ending Augu st 25 was
2O2, 1S9 and 80 per cent respectively over
the corresponding week OF 1873, while
at Birmingham the clearings Increased
over 400 per cent, indicating to what an
extent manufacturing industriesare be-
ing affected.
Special reports received by the Manu-.
include the construction Of twelve miles
of new railroad in Alabama and forty in
Tennessee the opening of three more
coal mines in Alabama and the forma-
ton of line of barges for the Mississip-
pi River trade; two steamship lines, one
coastwise and one to the West In
dies number of sales Of land in small
tracts to settlers, and the sale Of &c, 600
tons of Tennessee phosphate by single
corporation.
Throughout the entire South there is
better feeling in business circles than has
been seen for the last two or three years,
and reports from all over the country
show that the increasing prosperity. of
the South is attracting wide attention
from capitalists, manufacturers and
farmers. The rehabilitation of Southern
railroads is making good progress, and
with earnings steadily increasing there
is a tendency towards large expendI-
lures for the Improvement OF road beds,
an increase in rolling stock and for the
building Of new lines, especially short
feeders and branch roads.
Among the leading industrial enter
prists reported for the week are $780,

A New Phase.

COLUMBIA, September S.-There was a
new turn in the dispensary litigation to-
Ciay. State Treasurer Bates was served
with an order restraining him from fur
.ther payment of any claims in favor of
the dispensary. The order Is signed by
Chief ustice McIver and is made return.
able at the special session of the Court,
which will be held next Wednesday. The
application for the. injunction against
Treasurer Bates was gotten out by
Mitchell 81 Smith, and J. P. K. Bryan,
representing Capt. Melchers and others.
AS the case will be heard at the same
time with the one from Aiken, it is ex-
pected that Messrs. Mitchell d Smith
and Mr.. Bryan will appear in the case,
especially as the State Is anxious to have
the constitutionality Of the law thorough.
ly ventilated.
A similar paper was sent here for Com
missioner Traxler, but he was out of the
city. DR.. Bates tonight said to me that
he had been paying out money upon the
written opinion of Attorney General
Buchanan and the opinion of one Judge
and one Justice. All Of the papers were
turned over to the Attorney General,
who left the city this afternoon.
The idea of getting out an Injunction

ing out any money on account of the dis
pensary is not new. It was contemplated
prior to the closing down OF tn estab-
.iishments. The present actic how
ever, unexpected, as it was LnoL 1T that
the lawyers who were going to partici-
pate in the fight would come in on the
Aiken case. The injunction proceed
ings are expected to bring forth an early
decision. a copy of the petition for an
injunction was left at the State dispensary
for the Commissioner.
Superintendent Mixson turned the
batch Of papers over to Attorney General
Buchanan without reading the contents.
He, however, managed to get the money
for the weekly pay roll to-day. The pc
tition, which is returnable next Wednes-
day, is quite long paper. Copies of it
were not to be had in Columbi and Mr..
Bryan, who,at was understood, would be
in the city tonight, did not make bis ap-
pearance. Unless an immediate decision
is reached the diBpensary funds will be
very much tied up, as it is not likely that
Judge would issue "stay" in such q
case.-NeaCS and Courier.

"
So The friends of Frank Sloane and
Mary Virden, OF Bordentown, n. j., did
not know until a few days ago that they
were married thirty-five years ago. The
two have nearly the sam circle Of friends,
but no one suspected that they were le-
lgally husband and wife. Thirty-five
years ago, when Mary was yet in her
teens, the two fell in love. The parents
of each objected to their marriage, and
while Mary was visiting a relative
in New York city Frank went there, and
they were secretly married. Frank and
Mary afterward quarreled, and came to
the conclusion that they did not love
each other. They decided never to tell
of the marriage, and until last last Tues
day it remained secret. They will now
90 to house keeping together, though at
the request Of friends, they will have
second ceremony performed.
