SOUTH CAROLINA'S SEW SENATOR
A ne w rtory in regard to the eenmto-
rialo»ntt*t be* ween General Better and
Corbin acd Pat'eraon’i vote in the sen
ate when the matter came np, haa g<A
Into the newspapers. The giat of this
atory amadis atrr ngj of the sensatim
ai experitnente of some of the Washing-
Ion c rrespondents, is abont as follows:
The republicans in the senate, with
Angus Cameron in the lead, are moving
all directions to secure a document
on which they are to attempt to declare
Butler’s seal wcanL The document ia
ti e report of the S^nth Carolina Iegis*
tore sgiinst Senator Patterson, and
which was to have been presented by
Ba'.ler on his admission to the senate.
The report is now shelved in the
mittee of the legislature on federal re
lations, it is said at Bntler’s instigation
and this it ifi claimed reveals the bar
gain with Patter .?on It the v<’te. The
republicans eav Hampton objects to its
sunpretsion. Cameron a^d his cliqn
keep np the communication with
Hampton through the republican
membi-rs of the legLlatiye committee.
democratic senator *, so the story
goes, have written to Hampton to ge;
his consent to keep the report in S-juth
Carolina, bat bo far his irfluence is the
r way, and in cinsequence he and
Butler are qu-etly quarrelling If Came
ron and his friends get the report, they
will firet hold it over Patterson’s head
to secure h ! s vote to unseat Butler,
they do n *t get it they will not offer to
unseat Butler. Hence all depends on
its fate, and this is what has thrown
Patterson into a sick bed. The precar-
itfcsof liis situation was too much
for his physical constitution. If the
motion to unseat Butler is made in the
,rm of a substitute to Butler’s reed li
on calling for an investigation of the
chaiges against himself, the substitute
ill in some way provide for reviving
Corbin’s claim tor a Best. In the mean
time Butler ia teenring evi
deitce agaiiiS C-rbin in South
Carolina, and agatn-a certain reoubli
senators who sought to influenci
Patters* n’s vote in seating Butler by
threats of a decision in the habeas cor
pus c^e. If the worst comes to the
a oral, Patterson may resign, and thu
avoid the difficulty. It is a very pretty
story as it stands, but it should be taken
with an exceedingly large allowance of
salt.

give ihe proper
catholic r.xriNrrox cr hell,
and who should go there. With your permia-
sion 1 will state the Catholic belief in a more
formal manner: Hell to a place of torments ;
so everlasting punishment of Bnqnencheb e
flame whither the wickel are banished forever.
It is a place, and the punishment is real, ever
lasting in duration, acd everlas’ing in intensity.
The pains of the damned will never bo miti
gated. They will experience internal torture
and dlrpair at the ih. ught of all the 1 vil they
have doue and ol the many grace* they have
abased, and perpetual horror of the dismal
coup&Dj of the devi s and of ull the c»mncd.
The doctrine, spoxeu of by some, that me in

fo<zanily condemned by th ". c ;urch. The oody

bad h-b'.ts contrec ed here will fo low beyond
the g: tve, and be tbexme.ves the w.irst punish

punishment is judicially proportioned to kto
crime, and >s not tne result of an ccci lenL Such
is the hell of the Catholics. Now
WHO WILL OO THERE?
Everyone that die* an enemy of God— that is,
who sins witn will and intent, and dies in hie
sin. for no man ahail ever go there txerpt of his
own chootmg. ‘Godwin n^vj a.1 mm tj ta

Such being tie Catholic doctriuethat nothing

and in the Cainol c belief that willful perverts
will go Into damnation. 1 made my sutement

has been revealed to them. I leave to o'hers
the unpleasant belief that they are dishonest
THE iO CALLED ‘ CENSURE."
Thus it was I came to ae.y to yoar reporter that
I found extenuation for the impression made
Mr. Beecher's mind by the abhorrent idea that
for offences in which there was bnt .little
malice that sinners should suffer an eternity of
fire; iand that the great bulk of bomaziliy
should be swept "tike dead flies" into the bot
tomless pU for not accepting truths they had
never heard of; and 1 suggested to him the
Catholic doctrine of heaven, hell, and purga
tory, in which every requirement of God’s j
tice was appeased without taking aught away
from the pleat; mle of His mercy. In thus
speaking I exercised my right aa a freeborn
American citizen, and 1 expect to exercise it as
long as I live, however unpleasant it may be to
"B" that I should do so. The ”p~nal code 1
England aa well as the inquisition of Spain have
long since been buried in the common grave
over which is rea td the mausoleum of bigotry
and prejudice. Let them lie buried iu thtir
twin-dlagrace, aud let no appeal be made
Protestant prejudice in this late day because
Catholic chooses to state in respectful language
his views upon current religious topics.
A LOOK OYEB THE FENCE.
There to no need to go to the Catholic
chorea to look for a spirit of exclusiveness
•Vhen Kev. Ben. Johnson saw fit to sever his
connection with the Episcopal church hi*
bishop (Rt. Rev. Jno. W. Beckwith) wrote,
"yoar retpjLSibiii'.y before God
man is great and awful" Why a
awful since Mr. Johnsou was leading an exem
plary life ? And to add emphaeis he said that
because Mr. Johnson joined the more evangeli
cal side of Protestantism, that he had “given
additional strength to the iufidel denial that the
Father had sent the Sou.” How did Mr. John
son give it strength? Why should Mr. John
son bo censured for foliowiug the dictates of
an honest conscience ? In this same letter ol
censure to Mr. Johnson occurs the following
sentence: "May God bq^mercif ui to yoa, and
unittstoo late, show you the AWFUL SIX you
have commuted, and save you* from its const-
quencet." What are these cou* querecs? Hell?
What is the awlul sin? The exercise by Mr.
Joh n>-ou of the Protestant right of con***ience.
Dj all these God-feariog Protestants like Mr.
Jahusou, who do uot belong tu the Episcopal
church, go to Hell ? Following up the logic
this Episcopal warning, it looks as if they wiU,
since it is an "awfalsin'’ to be any other kind
of a Protestant hot an Episcopalian. Surely
these are strange times!

80 we heard a farmer say of his 00
enpation a few days since while stand
ing on the street, corner. Now we
know that farmer, and unfortunately
there are too many like him. Farm
ing, like everything else, requires judg
ment, industry/ attention and some
brains to make it pay. Go through
the business houses j>f this city and see
who are prospering; it is true men who
devote themselves to their business
plan hard.to provide for and to increase
it. To make fanning pay, planting and
sowing annual crops alone, will not do.
The farmer must breed stock, not look
ing alone to the natural increase, but
at the same time to make it better. Ii
his hogs are pretty fair he desires an
improvement; if his cattle are good, he
wishes better; in short, his aim and
wish, is to improve everything about
his farm. He has sheds and barns for
his stock and his produce. He has his
garden and orchard, and they are look
ed after and attended to. By living
on his farm, and watching its every in
terest, he makee it pay. lie pays no
attention to the silver tongne of agents
who sell emigrant tickets to the west,
nor does he read bureau pamphlets of
the rich lands of the weet,but studies
how to restore his fields to their former
fertility; how to introduce some added
convenience for the comfort of his wife
and children, or tor the good of his
stock. He not only makes farming
pay, but cause* his home to be more
attractive and his domestic intercourse
more refined.
