THE RACE_AT ALBANY.
CONK LING VIRTUALLY OFF THE
CARDS.
< ornell and Depew tbe Apparent
Favorite*—Another Fruitless Bel*
lot-The Governor’s Position Un
determined The Contest to be
Renewed To-Day.
Albany, June 1 —lt was universally con
ceded last night that Conkling is entirely
out of the race. A gentleman, who had
been closeted with the leaders for an hour,
had no hesitancy in admitting that It was
but a question of unanimity with the Re
publicans. ‘‘Cornell and Depew” was heard
on every side. A few votes for the Gov
eraor are now said to have been cast by In
struction and as feeling for further action.
Should Cornell, either by letter or authority
of a proxy statement, decy any aspirations to
the honor, the question, so far as he Is con
cerned, will be definitely decided. But, on
the contrary, should no oral or written
notice be given, it will be understood that
he is a candidate, and no one doubts that
he could be elected. There are others who
are urging forward the names of Cornell
and Crowley, but with Indifferent success.
Cornell and Depew are too well received to
have any splits, and their tupporters con
sider Crowley with very little favor. At
midnight there was no change In tbe situa
tion, and It is confidently expected that two
more ballots will see the figures running up
opposite Ihe names of Cornell and Depew.
Cornell’s letter of declension is in the hands
of Senator McCarthy. It will be presented
to tbe Legislature this morning.
It Is rumored thD morning that Governor
Cornell will not write a letter declining to
permit his name to be used as a candidate
in the Senatorial contest. Senator Mc-
Carthy has not received any letter from the
Governor objecting to the use of hlj name.
The first vote in joint convention to day
stood as follows for the short term:
CoDkling 34
Jacobs 52
Wheeler 22
Cornell 11
Rogers 15
Crowley 3
Feuton 3
White 2
Pomeroy 2
Bradley 1
E lick 1
Folger 3
Wadsworth 1
The balance was scattering.
The House then proceeded to fill the va
cancy caused by the resignation of Thomas
C. Piatt, with the following result:
Plat 29
Depew 25
Kernan 53
Folger 4
Cornell 12
Davis 2
Laphain 8
Miller 8
Crowley 4
Evarts 3
Dutcher 2
Morton 1
Wadsworth 2
Tremaine 1
Ward 3
Rogers 1
No choice in either case.
The Assembly ba6 adjourned until to
morrow at 10 o’clock.

Exit .IlcUrtw and Lllley—Th* Na
tional Board of Health aud New
Orleans’ Quarantine Regulations
Washington, June I—Another1 —Another bomb
fell among the star route thieves to-day.
Two more official heads went by the board.
Sixth Auditor McUrew and his deputy,
Lilloy, are no longeron the government pay
rolls. They audited the accounts of the
contractors and passed upon them. It was
their duty to collect the forfeitures and
fines Imposed upon tbe contractors.
They were in the ring, and having full
authority, passed accounts by which the
stealings were rendered feasible. They did
not collect the fines aDd forfeitures.
To-day Secretary Windom sent for Me
Grew and demanded his resignation Imme
diately. McGre w had thought he was going
to escape. He was astounded. He atked
for ten days time to consider. Windom re
plied that be could not give him auy time,
as the Postmaster General aud Attorney Gen
eral had asked for the Immediate removal
of McGrew and his deputy, Lilley. McGrew
then resigned and Lilley got the bounce.
McGrew went to the Postmaster General
but could get no satisfaction. The game is
closed for them. The star route Investiga
tion goes steadily ou, and 8 nother stroke of
lightning may be expected at any moment.
THE NATIONAL BOARD OF HEALTH.
The N itional Board of Health convened
here to day in regular annual session. The
priuclpai ques'ion dlecussed related to
quarantine regulations at New Orleans, and
was In substance whether ships bound to
that port from Infected places should be
compelled to go directly to Ship Island for
inspection, or whether they should be per
mitted to come first t-> Port Eads and be
sent to Ship Island only In esse infection
should be found on board. No final decis
ion was reached.
DEVOURED BY DOGS.
Horrible Fate of a Little Boy lu
Arkansas.
Little Rock, June I.—The details of a
horrid tragedy are reported from Woodruff
county. A little boy named Bennie John
son, seven years old, was sent by his parents
on an errand to a neighbor’s bouse, two
m les distant. When half way to his In
tended destination, and while crossing a
lonely, unfrequented strip of country, the
little fellow was attacked by a couple of
vicious dogs. He tried to run, but the
brutes quickly overtook him and knocked
him down, lacerating his flesh in a horrible
manner, and causing his speedy death. The
dogs then dragged the dead boy some fifty
yards to the edge of a thicket, where they
ate off one ear, the greater part of tbe face,
aud devoured a considerable portion of the
body. When found they were still engaged
in their horrible U ast, from which they
were driven with difficulty and dispatched.
GRANT ROBBED.
Ex-Railroad Wen Found "Wearing
Valuables Belonging to Him.
St. Louis, June I.—John T. FlUpatrick,
formerly a messenger of the Southern Ex
press Company, aud A. King, formerly a
baggagemaster on the Iron Mountain Rtil
road, were seen drunk in Texarkana one
day la6t week wearing valuable gold badges
set with jewels, supposed to belong to Gen.
Grant, a6 the Inscriptions showed they had
been presented to him. The badges were
taken from them and sent to this city, but
the men were not arrested. Yesterday both
men were arrested, and more of Gen. Grant’s
propertv was found on them. It is sup
posed they robbed his baggage when he
went to Mexico.
THE COTTON EXPOSITION.
President Garfield Will Attend It

Washington, June I.—Hon. H. V. M.
Miller, Foreign Commissioner of the Atlanta
International Cotton Exposition, In com
pany with Hon. Emory Speer, called on the

public duties will permit.

FLASHES FROM AUGUSTA.
The Clyde Syndicate After the City’s
Shares in the Augusta and Knox
▼llle—Likelihood of a Conveyance
—What the Richmond and Dan
ville aud the Clyde Combinations
Offer to Do The King manufactu
ring Company Organlxed-move
ments of Stocks.
Augusta, Ga., June I.—To-day, General
Haskell, President of the Charlotte, Colum
bia and Augusta Railroad, and representing
the Clyde Syndicate, has been In the city.
He has been consulting with President Ver
dery, of the Augusta and Knoxville Road,
and with Mayor May, who holds the city’s
stock—sso,ooo —in that road. It is now
reasonably certain that General Haskell will
get this stuck, which Is nearly a controlling
interest, upon the following plan:
The Richmond and Danville Railroad en
gage: First, to complete ihe new road from
Augusta to Greenwood, 8. C. Secondly,
to build inside of three years a road from
Augusta to Elberton, Ga , fitty seven miles,
thence connecting with the road to Toccoa
City, fifty miles, where It will tap the Air
Line from that point.
The Clyde, or Danville and Richmond
combination, will complete the road through
to Rabun Gap and Knoxville, Tennessee.
This part of the contract, it is believed, will
be filled at the same time as the northern
extension.
Gen. Haskell offers to give the city of Au
gusta In exchange for her stock share for
share in the new combination, and offers to
file a bond of $500,u00 for the faithful per
formance of this work, which he is willing
to commence at once. The City Council Is
believed to be fully favorable to this ar
rangement, aDd at an Informal meeting this
evening they discussed it formally.
General Haskell Is sdxlous that the Balti
more and Ohio Road, which has made offers
for the Augusta and Knoxville line, should
not eecure it for a Southern connection,
and he has been buying up alone the stock
in the city all day.
The officials of the Port Royal Railroad
here do cot know how the lease will affect
the policy or management of that line, and
await the return of President Wilson from
Savannah for information.
The King Manufacturing Company or
ganized to-day and placed the capital stock
at $1,000,000.
Btocks are quiet but firm. Georgia 180,
Central 170, Memphis and Charleston 82,
Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta 63.
BRITISH TOPICS.
A Groundless Scare—The Riot at
Clouturl-Tlie Trials of the Laud
Bill.
London, June I.—The Daily Newt, In its
leading article, says: “It is doublful wheth
er the powers possessed by the government,
under the widest interpretation of them
that the Ingenuity of the Crown lawyers
could suggest, would give legal authority
for the formal suppression of the Land
League.”
At Clonmel, county Waterford, a riot oc
curred yesterday growing out of the sale of
tenants interests in farms. The people,
paraded the streets all last night. About
thirty civilians are suffering from bayonet
thrusts and sword cuts Inflicted by the sol
diery. One policemau has died of his
injuries, and some of the wounded soldiers
ar<- not expected to live.
The London correspondent of the Edin
burgh Scotsman s*ys: “The statements that
at a meeting of tne Cabinet ou Saturday
last a proposal was made to suspend all
public meetings in Ireland for six months,
and to rupprees the Land League, are un
founded.”
The Manchester Guardian's London corre
spondent says: “It Is not in the least l:ke!y
that the government have determined to
deal with the Land League as an illegal
organization, but it Is understood that com
munications have passed since the arrival
in Dublin of Mr. Forster, Chief Secretary
for Ireland, which go to 6how that tbe gov
ernment are determined not to delay using
their powers under the coercion act to crush
the intimidation.”
The Times editorially comments upon the
effect upon the Irish leaders of the rumored
intention ot the government to adopt meas
ures for abating the terrorism of the
Land League, and expresses the view that
the debate in the House of Commons on
Mr. Mitchell Henry’s motion of privilege,
in reference to Mr. Egau’s letter abusing
Messrs. Power and McCoan, Is to be re
corded as the turning point in the Irish
question.
The Daily Sews says: “When the House
of Commons, In committee on the land bill,
began the consideration of the measure,
there were fifteen hundred amendments to
be considered. The result of the two sit
tings has been to reduce this number to six,
and the principal one of these will come up
for discussion on another clause. At this
rate of progress, supposing no fresh amend
ments are Introduced, the House would
have to sit daily for five hundred and sixty
eight days to complete the bill, but fresh
amendments are added daily. Forty were
handed in on Monday.”

Club’s Spring Meeting.
Jbrome Park, N. Y., June I.—The sec
ond day of the spriDg meeting of the Ameri
can Jockey Club passed off successfully.
Tbe attendance was not up to tbe standard,
probably on account of tbe exceeding hot
weather. The track wa6 In excellent order

The Confederate Cotton Loan.
London, June I.—Referring to the Con
federate cotton loan meeting, tbe Times
says: “The fact of the meeting being held
deserves notice, although the first impres
sion undoubtedly will be that nothing could
be more hopeless than the position of
the credit of the Confederacy, as there
Is a clause in the American Constitution
forbidding the recognition of such loans.
The meeting, however, appointed a very In
fluential committee. The hope of those in
terested is that tbe Southern b ates will at
tempt to borrow money In this market, and
can be treated as in default unless they re
cognise these loans, the Union having no
equitable right to release them from
the obligations Incurred In their
capacity as sovereign Mutes. This aeems
a very poor foundation, which the United
States opposed, but it Is a fact that the
cotton bonds of tbe Confederacy have been
recently dealt here at five per centum, and
dollar bonds at three per centum. |t is to
be noted that when a State is in default tbe
Stock Exchange will refuse to grant quoU-
Uodi lor any new.lcaus,”
SAVANNAH, THURSDAY, JUNE 2, 1881.
AMERICA WINS AT EPSOM.
LORILLARD'S IROQUOIS SWEEPS
THE DERBY STAKES.
A Well Contested Straggle—The
Odds Against the Winner-His
Owner Nald to Have < leared Two
millions—Tbe Start, the Race and
the Flnlab—lmmense Assemblage—
Great Enthusiasm la New York.
London, June I.—The race for the Derby
stakes came off, and was won by P. Loril
lard’s bay colt Iroquois. Tbe second place
was secured by W. T. Sharpe’s brown colt,
Peregrine, and the third place by John
Wa’son’s bay colt, Townmoor. Jockey J.
Osborne rode Voluptuary, and Lemalre
rode Townmoor. Tne horses went to the
starting post at 3:04 p. m. The betting Im
mediately before the 6tart was eleven to two
against Iroquois, and fourteen to one
against Don Fulano. Jockey Archer, who
rode Iroquois, received a tremendous ova
tion on returning to weigh in. Iroquois
won cleverly by half a length, with two
lengths between Peregrine and Townmoor.
Time 2:50.
The start was made seventeen minutes
late. It Is stated on the race course that
Jockey Archer says he could easily have
won the race by three lengths If It had been
required.
Only ten horses paraded for the prelimi
nary canter, the others going directly to
the post. Peregrine’s appearance gave
great satisfaction to his fanciers, but Iro
quois seemed to be In the best of spirits,
ills action was much admired. After ODe
break away a good start was effected. When
the horses were first 6een at the top of the
bill it, was difficult to make out from tbe
grand stand who had the advantage, but
coming down the hill Peregrine,
who was on the inside, had a fair lead, and
bis friends began to shout, “Peregrine
wins!” As they turned the corner Archer’s
colors were seen pressing forward on the
stand side. The two leaders raced an ex
citing match up to the grand stand, where
Iroquois’ nose shoved In front, and ho con
tinued to gain until past the judges’ stand.
The finish was splendid and exettmg.
The crowd of people at Epsom Downs to
day was immense. 19,000 went bv rail
from Victoria station alone. The Prince
and Princess of Wales, the Duke and
Duchess of Connaught and a large party of
friends attended. The scratching of
Cameli&rd caused the others to come
to shorter prices In the betting
at the start, which was even ou
Peregrine and four to one against
Geologist. At the start Marshal McDonald
took a slight lead of Culloden and St. Louis.
These three came on In a line, clear of Cum
berland, Don Fulano, Townmoor, Geologist
and Fortissimo. In the next lot were Iro
quois and Peregrine. Oa passing the mile
post Bt. Louis, Tulstan, Townmoor, Iro
quois and Peregrine were must promi
nent, with Don Fulano well up.
There was little alteration in po
sition to Tottenham Corner, where Bt. Louis
was beaten, and Peregrine, after cannoning
against Geologist and nearly caps'zing him,
took a slight lead. Oa entering the stretch,
and at the distance pole, he looked like
winning In a canter, but Iroquois cime on
with a rush, and, heading Peregrine in a
few strides, won cleverly, with Peregrine
second and Townmoor third, followed by
8. Cobell, Cumberland. Voluptuary, Triest
an, Limestone, GeoloM-t and ForVesimo in
the order named, and the others to 1;d off
the track in good condition and very hard.
The Royal party present at Epsom In
cluded the Princess Louise, the Duke of
Cambridge and the Prince of Saxe Weimar.
The race for the Epsom Manor stakes, for
two-year-old colta and fillies, distance five
furlougs, also came came off, and was won
by Girard’s bay filly New Hayen. The
second place was secured by Lefevre’e bay
filly Rouge Gorge, and the third place by J.
R. Keene’s bay colt North Star. S!x ran.
The race for the Stanley stakes, for two
year old colts and fillies, distance five fur

was received In this city with enthusiastic
expressions of pleasure in sporting circles
and at the clubs. With the exception of
persons intimately acquainted with Mr.
Lorillard’s * tables, few sportsmen put money
on Iroquois, notwithstanding the fact
that he came In second at Newmarket
in the race for the 2.000 guineas. At the
Uuion Club Pierre Lortllard stood in the
centre of a crowd of at least one hundred
excited men who congratulated nim upon
the ownership of the first American horse
which has ever won a place in the Derby.
A little before noon a party from tbe Union
Club started for the Jerome Park races,
Lorlllard’s drag being draped with bunting
and greeted with cheers from the different
groups of the club and sporting men along
the route.”

What Senator Vooruees Says
About Lord Roscoe.—“ You ask me
about Conkling. I have but little to say
of his affairs. He has committed a great
folly. Conkling is a man of splendid
abilities, and yet he sometimes acts like
a spoiled child. I have known him
twenty years, and I think I understand
him. He resigned in a pique, believing
that he would receive an ovation in New
Y’ork and be returned without opposi
tion. His vanity misled him. If begets
back at all it will be by hard work and
shorn of his power as a party leader.
His resignation was a mistake in another
respect. It developed the fact at once
that the administration had strong fol
lowing, even as against his return to the
Senate in New Y'ork. It showed that
Garfield was justified iq-gppointing Rob
ertson as the head of administration
forces, while giving to Conkling very
full recognition in five or sis other ap
pointments.
“You ask whether I want Conkling
returned to the Senate? Yes. I hope
he will get back, but 1 sincerely hope the
New York Democrats will in no event
aid in that result, and become responsible
for bis presence in the Senate. When I
aay that I hope he will get bick to the
Senate, I mean if a Republican is to be
elected, which I very much doubt if the
question goes before the people and over
to the next Legislature.”

Beaufort, S. C., May 31,—Yesterday was a
gala day in Beaufort for “lAe truly toil." Tbe
occasion was Decoration day of the graves of
Federal soldiers in the National Cemetery,
founded at this place. There are nine thou
sand two hundred and forty-one graves of
known and unknown Federal soldiers, whose
bones have been gathered up from the several
battlefields and burying grounds along the
coast, from Olustee to Charleston. The ceme
tery covers an area of thirteen acres, and is
surrounded by a neat and substantial brick
wall, with n which is a handsome brick house
erected for the keeper. The grounds are kept
in neat and comely trim. The principal avenues
are planted in trees and the grounds otherwise
embellished with flowers and evergreens. In
the middle of this was a stand erected for the
speakers and the participants of the ceremo
nies which took place yesterday, and has been
preceded each year heretofore by similar
demonstrations and upon the same scale, the
advantage being, perhaps, in these that have
preceded.
For several weeks past preparations have
been making by the Northern citizens, and
particularly by the colored people, who take
an inordinate luterest in keeping up the flag
ging zeal that each succeeding year appears to
mark the recurrence of this national holiday
among those who instituted it.
Handbills had been printed and industriously
circulated bidding all who felt an interest to
come. Invitations had been extended to the
colored citizen soldiery of Savannah, Augusta
and Charleston to participate in making the
day full of imposing pageantry. Arrangements
for excursion rates had been granted by the
severs 1 railroads tributary to Beaufort, and
immense crowds were expected and arranged
for. On (Sunday evening a special excursion
train on th Port Royal Railroad arrived with
Col. O. C. H. Claussen and staff, of the First
Regiment, National Guards of South Carolina,
together with the Lincoln Republican Guards,
the Douglass Light Infantry, the Garrison
Light Infantry, the Lincoln
South Carolina Rifles, the Attucks Light Infan
try and a detachment of the U. S Grant Cav
alry from Charleston. On the following day,
just in time to take part in the procession,
which proceeded forthwith to the cemetery,
they were joined by the Georgia Light Artillery
and a detachment of the Forest t ity Guards,
who arrived by the steamer H. B. Plant
from Savannah. A large concsurse of col
ored persons from the adjoining islands
aud from the surrounding country were
in town, and the streets became packed with a
dense mass of colored humanity. These con
ducted themselves with quietness and propri
ety during the day, and seemed bent upon
enjoying themselves at the spectacle of the
military and with the music of the bands. The
day was intensely hot, and the patriotic ardor
of the troops might have been seen oozing
through every pore as they marched and coun
termarched through the streets. However,
there were no sunstrokes, and but very little
indulgence in stimulating beverages. The
ice cream and lemonade arbors did a more
thriving business, and the old maumas with
peanut stand* were happy.
The Hon. Charles Cowley, of Lowell. Mass.,
formerly and during the war Judge Advocate
on Ad ( iral Dahlgren’s staff, was announced
as orator for the occasion, and his advent was
looked to with unusal interest from his having
been a factor in the events and scenes around
this spot. After the decoration of the graves
and a prayer by Hev. \V R. Jervey, Intendant,
G W. Collins made t n opening address,
which was quite eloquent and appropriate. A
poem was read by Mr. Judd, a
Northern citizen, then a letter from Gen.
W. T. Sherman was read by Mr. A. G. Thomas,
of the Sea Island Neics An
original poem by Captain E. W. Thomson, a
native of Edgefield, was delivered. Then fol
lowed the oration of Hon. Charles Cowley.
The stage was filled by colored men, and the
most striking and noticed feature of the pro
ceedings. and one commented upon by promi
nent Northern residents of the town who take
no part in politics, but who liberally subscribe
to help such demonstrations along, was the ab
sence of auy of the prominent white Republi
cans or former Federal supporters on the
stage or taking prominent part in the cere
monies. They ail seemed to avoid the affair,
and moved about as if in the dis
charge of some unholy and unrighteous busi
ness Their hearts did not seem to be in the
fulfillment of their programme. With the ex
ception of ex-Senator Collins and A. G. Thom
as. there was scarce a white Republi
can official prominent in tbe deco
ration of the graves of the Federal dead.
The one hundred and seventeen Confederate
graves received equal attention from the hand*
of the decorators, so that in a few jears all
feeling about the differences of graves of the
Blue or the Grey is likely to be dissipated for
wantrof inspiring hate on either side.
Judge Cowley’s address, to say the most,
was not political. It is impossible to afford
more than a synopsis cf the address, which
was neither fervid or eloquent, as might have
been expteted, and which really bore no sig
nificance to the occasion. He commenced his i
speech with a reference—it could scarce be
called a tribute—to Colonel Shaw, the Colonel
of a colored regiment, who was killed on the
ramparts while storming Fort Wagner, in
Charleston hnrbor, and whose remains, he
said, had been removed to this cemetery, with
O'ters who had fallen on the Federal
side. He spot e of tbe remarkable
circ-umstance of the rescue from ignominy
of Colonel Shaw's name by the erection cf the
Shaw Memorial School in Charleston, near the
place where, as he was told, indignity was
heaped upon tbe dead body of the brave
Cos ot el Shaw, who fell inside the Confederate
lines while leading his colored troops to the
charge, by being buried in the same grave 6s
the negroes He stated that he had been in
formed by a prominent citizen in Charleston,
who was present at the burial of Shaw, and
who had been a Confederate officer, that
th <y had dug a trench in wbich they had
laid a layer of "dead niggers," and the
body of Shaw had been put across
their bodies, and on top of it another layer of
* his dead niggers" had been hustled in. Here
the speaker was very unfortunate in his ad
mission of the great indignity, and how shock
ing an insult had thus been applied to the dead
body of Shaw by placing the bodies of negroes
in the same grave as their white commander. It
was rather an extraordinary repulsion to find
lurking In the breast of one who comes from
a section that preaches and claims "the com
mon brotherhood of man!" The reflection seem
ed to strike the colored people as very curious
that their chosen orator should indicate that the
niggers weie good enough to fight alongside
of, but were not good enough to be buried pre
miscu usly among them. However, tne Judge
thought that Shaw’s memory had been suf
ficiently rescued from oblivion and attempted
ignominy by being honored with having his
likeness the most conspicuous object now
hanging on the walls of one of the most promi
nent public schools in Charleston. Colonel
Shaw, Judge Cowley said, was a
typical so dier of the Northern sec
tion, who, if the. war had been announced
from the first as intended for the liberation of
the slave, would never have been in the Fed
eral service; but for the preservation of the
country as a whole, and for the maintenance
and honor of the old flag, Shaw was Inspired,
and to this was he committed. Not so with the
other typical soldier who lies buried in this
same cemetery, and whom he named, Col.
Putnam, of New Hampshire, who, he said, re-
? (resented that other element, that was for
reeing the slaves and for asserting the power
of the General Government to do so. And
here again it was curious to observe the
change that the sentiment among the ora
tors of New England has undergone, and the
evident disposition to retire the cause of the
“man and brother" from the hustings and
from the arena of discussion. Time was when
for just s-uoh prestige the name and deeds of
Putuam as the exemplar of the spirit of the
struggle with the South would have made his
name the popular one upon whom to dwell,
because he was enlisted for the freedom of
tbe slave, but it was Shaw who was not in
favor of freedom for the slave, and yet had
been treated with indi2Dity by having his body
mixed up so indecorously among nig.
gers that one orator now loved to
dwell and to recommend to thoughtful
and charitable consideration. We write just
as we are impres.ved as a candid and disinter
ested listener aud observer, We dwell upon
this point as indicating the charges which time
is evidently bring pig about in the thoughts,
the feelings and the expressions of those who
were once our bitterest enemies. It is an
augury for better feeling in the future, how
ever much we may philosophize upon the
causes wbich are bringing about the changes.
There was really’but very little else particu
larly noticeable in the speech of Judge Cow
leys, which was moderate and rather dealing
in genera ities. until vyheu he paid his respects
to Beaufort, which, he said, was a spot unri
valled for historic associations. Po-sessing, he
said, a history a century older than Plymouth
Rock, it had always t een a most interesting
placa to him. He hastily sketched the first at
tempt at settling tb.e country by the French,
and their abandonment after building a fort
upon this island. He then referred to the later
attempt of the Spaniards and their construc
tion of a fort on Parry's Island, in this magnifi
cent and inviting harbor, and their disappear
ance; to be followed by the occupation or the
country by our ancestors of Great Britain.
He pictured an i predicted a great future for
this section and for its untold and unappre
ciated advantages under the fostering csre and
power of the General Government, who he
thought shoqid devote some of the funds ob
tained from tbe sale of the public lands to
educating the ignorant masses of the Southern
States. He dwelt upon the injustice which
existed in Congress towards the Southern
States. The original thirteen, ot which South
Carolina was one, did not receive their due
proportion of the public fund. Minnesota, he
said, wbich was not one of the original
thirteen States, received many times as much
as any of the original States or the Union.
Ho read extracts from an address delivered
some years ago by the R a v. Dr. Pinckney, of
Charleston, upon the subject of our “Blighted
Sea Islands. ” He confessed that he, like others
at the North, was apt to be affected by the
statements and articles reflecting upon the
ruined and desolated condition or the South
from the pens of respectable sources such as
Dr Pinckney, but that he saw no such evi
dences of blight and return to barbarl.-m
as predicted and indicated by Dr. Pinckney,
Instead thereof he found evidences of thrift
and prosperity among the people as h® was
not prepared to witness, f-ora reading the
Southern papers and the speeches of Southern
orators. He dwelt upon what he considered
the inaccuracies of Dr. Pinokney’s address,
and from the results of his observation,
Md from sources of Information he had
obtained, he considered this section in
an improving condition and the colored
people enjoying a degree of prosperity and
success that refuted all attempts to represent
their condition as desperate or unpromising.
He attributed the improvement of the hlscks
to the efforts that had been made by the North
ern ladies who had came down from the North
and acted as missionaries among them, in
structing and guiding them, and doing every
thing for their moral and educational improve
ment.
A singular feature of the whole address,
which we cannot attempt to more than touch
upon, was its singular avoidance of any senti
mental or poetical flights consonant to the
occasion. It was entirely an address that
recommended itself to the economic and in
dustrial consideration of the future of the
country. Perhaps it was intended not to dwell
among the graves, but to step out of the dead
past and stimulate among the lately enfran
chised aspirations and aims for the future, un
encumbered with the habiliments of weeping
and mourning for the dead heroes, whose
memories it should be satisfied to pass into
history and no longer claim for them that the
wheels of industry shall stop for a whole day
to cover their graves with lading flowers and
wake memories with the cant of holiday ora
tors.
The address was received with less enthu
siasm, and less cheering and demonstration
than any we ever saw before, and disappemted
the colored people greatly. The Northern
people who took part In the affair at all did so
in so lukewarm a manner that, as compared
with former years, it is not hard to foresee
that the whole thing will, in a few years, fizzle
out from want of interest, even by the colored
people, by whom it is now only kept up as a
sort of jubilee. So it strikes us. and so it
strikes many.
So ended Decoration day in Beaufort. The
crowds dispersed after a benediction, and to
day the visiting companies of military will
disperse for their homes wiser, if not sadder,
men.
Judge Cowley goes home promising to give
a glorious account of the prosperity aud pros
pects of this section of the South.unsurpaeSi-d,
as he says, in natural advantages. His obser
vations upon the great improvement of the
colored people refutes the oft-repsated slan
derous aspe.-sion that they have not an equal
chance in the pursuit of life, liberty and hap
piness with their white fellow citizens under
iocal self-government. Certain it is they are
getting richer and more prosperous, and may
be fair game again for pluaderous adventurers
in a different key than emancipation.

to recognize the importance of the Bewing Ma
chine and to make a six-cord cotton, which has
ever since been the recognized standard for
machines.
All the improvements In machinery that the
inventive genius of the nineteeath century has
produced have been adapted by the manufac
turers of “O. N. T.”
At all the great International Fairs of the
world, “O. N. T.’’ has been awarded the highest
honors.
The “O. N. T.” factories at Newark, N. J.,
and Paisley, Scotland, employ 5,200 operatives
—make sufficient thread daily to go around the
world four times.
Consume 140 tons of coal daily.
The manufacturers of “O. N. T.” are the
