4 Matter OF Dough.

From the tone of Washington
dispatches and the subdued de-
meanOr of the Charleston news
papers we are afraid that the
metropolis of South Carolina is
after all TO have a negro for col
lector of its port. 1t has been
suggested that this is but a poor
return to the people of Charleston
who laid themselves out last
April, socially, to win the undy-
ing admiration and gratitude Of
the President. 1t has even been
hlnted that the good people OF
the City by the Sea cast their
bread upon the waters, and after
many days it has not come back
to them. We should say that
it has come back to them all right
but that it has come back brown
bread, and only a crumb of it
at that.-Greenville News.
