C,—A tornado swept over the up country Thursday night. The new market house at Columbia, which was almost finished, was blown down. But the worst dam age was done in Chester, C. Hi, 'in which place 62 houses were entirely destroyed by the storm, and many others were seriously damaged. No one was killed; hut four colored • vajUu were in j ure d by the falling from the 6th , houses. Miles of feucing were blown me down, and a thousand large fruit trees j were blown up by the roots. The total loss in Chester is 850,000, falling mostly upon persons of small means. A meeting was held there to-day, and steps taken for the relief of the sufferers. The tornado moved westerly, and was of short duration. W» are indebted to E. II. Gray, S •erctary, for a ticket of admission to t > the Horticultural Fair to lie given at the beautiful grounds of the Cotton States Fair Association, on the 8th and '.‘lb of May. There will he a Grand Tournament between the Sabre Clulw of Savannah and Augusta, dur- in the Fair, and a Festival on Wed nesday night. The Cooper Institute Meeting. The iiKctitig of the so-called Reform Republicans, at Cooper Institute, New 't oik, la.-t week, was the largest polit- iea• demon.-tration that has occurred in N.-w York for years. Many liberal and manly sentiments were uttered by the speakers, hut the resolutions adopt ed were exceedingly cautious, and with little point. They were of the “ Good Lord and Good Devil Order,” as though the framers were not quitesurc whose hands thc-y would fall Into. And there’s the rub. They wish to get rid of Grant, if they can, but aru not willing to quit the party that put him <*n the country, and sustains his mon strous acts. Therefore they were con tent to urge the adoption of the one •term principle, not daring to boldly .arraign Grant, or squarely denounce the abuses and rottenness which so dis- .giist the nostrils of all honest men. It is possible there will lie more ur - •backbone at Cincinnati. It is in a •region which feels the dead weight of radical tariffs, and the tribute wrung ti'rom lionst toil to fatten the shoddy dords of the East. It is out of the reach of the tainted air of Wall street and the jobbing rings of Washington, where the voiceof the great agricultural West may have a fair hearing. It is possible that manly honesty and states manship may not quail there as they did at Cooper Institute, before the in sidious councils of mere party policy. .State, *$77,746,115 for county, and • to the District. $134,794,108 for city and town pur poses.

Nearly one third of this quota goes to pay interest on the aggregate debt of over three thousand million dollars.

Many Republican leaders' New York possesses $6,500,841,264 of wealth, or one-fifth the whole as was rejected for no good reason. The appointment was next conferred upon a young gentleman of Haber sham county, also a student of Emory College, who declined it. I could find no one in my own county, nor in the more Northern counties of the District who could accept the appointment w ith any expectation of passing a successful examination. The inabiliiy of the young men of the mountains to gain admission at West Point is owing to the want of educational advantages, and their absence from selu>ols during the war. I had almost despaired of finding a young man who could attain admission when Mr. A. E. Garlington was brought to my notice. Although his father was then a resident of At lanta, the son had been for two years a student at the University, and for several months after leaving the Uni versity a citizen of the 6th District, and following on his own account the business of engineering on the North Eastern Railroad—the whole of which road will, when completed, be in the 6th District.
