Gordon Interviewed. Special telegram to the inter-Oceean] Washington, December 17.—The judgment to which tt oureful inquiry here to-day leads us,is that the polit ical situation remains substantially unchanged. Nobody whose opinion is worth a straw ventures to predict the course of events betweeu this time and the 4th of March. Some look forward with the gravest ap prehension, some with hope born of confidence in the good sense of the people, but ail with more or less anxiety. In conversing on this sub ject this evening, Senator Gordon, of Georgia, said there might be a peaoeable settlement of the contest in two ways. One was the adop tion of Mr. Morton’s plan before the which he thought might pass with some modifica tion, and the other was the couuting of the vote by the two houses, os heretofore practiced, with some provision for an arbitrament on the disputed votes. He objected to the decision of the matter by the Su preme Court, and also to Mr. Fro linghuysen’s proposition for a board, consisting of the President of the Senate, the Speaker of the House, uud the Chief Justice, observing that, as in the present case, the President of the Senate would be sure to vote one way and the Speaker the other, it would be practically a reference of the whole matter to the Chief Jus tice. He was inclined to believe that certain Republican Senators, whose actions were governed rather by their convictions of legality and equity than partisanship, would sustain the course marked out. by the majority of their associates, and that they, with the Deraooraoy,would make a major ity of the Senate and bring about an adjustment. As to the probability of armed resistance to the inauguration of Hayes, he said that it was his opin ion that if the reports of the investi gating committees now in the South did not remove, but only strengthen ed and confirmed the existing belief among Jpemocruts that the action of the returning boards was uufairand fraudulent, and Hayes should be in augurqted by force, the peace of the country would be seriously jeopard ed- Jq cage 0 f such a conflict the boujrh would take no part unless the integrity of their States should be "'/teatened. There probably never ,'as m. people, he said, so sick of war the people of the South, and it ..would take a great deal to get them to light again. lien. At. C. Itutler. Charleston Journal of Commerce. J The Legislature of South Carolina yesterday chose Gen. Matthew Cal braith Butler to fill the vacancy which will ocour on the 4th of March next iu the United States Senate, from this State. Gen. Butler is a son of the Hon. William Butler, who, as a whig, at one time represented the Greenville district in Congress. He is a nephew of Gov, Pierce M. Butler, who on the the bloody held of Chorubusco, in ’47, fell at the head of “the Palmetto regiment.” He is also a nephew of Judge A. P. Butler, who between ’46 and ’57 acceptably represented South Carolina in the Senate of the United States. And on his mother’s side he is a grandson or nephew of Commo dore 0. H. Perry, who in 1813 defeat ed the British in the ramous naval engagement on Lake Erie. General Butler was graduated at the South Carolina college, and be came a member of the Legislature in iB6O. He entered the warns a captain of cavalry, in the Hampton legion, distinguished himself repeatedly, lost a leg and emerged a major-gen eral. After the war he was one of the first to enter the held political and take the bull of reconstruction by the horns, running for the office of Lieutenant-Governor on the coalition ticket with Judge Carpenter. This year he was an early advocate of the “straight-out” movement, as the sole hope of arousing the people and saving the State. Early in July he nominated Geneml Hampton for Governor in the columns of the Journal of Commerce, which earnest ly supported this policy and the nom ination. In the State Convention of the Democratic* party, August 10, he was influential in establishing this programme and afterwards labored for its success in the State. General Butler is noted for his courageous manhood, flue appear ance and address and personal magnetism. In dealing with men he has tact and skill; and in public debate his ability is universally recognized. He is a man of a genu ine and generous patriotism, and, we believe, will do the State some service and make his mark in the counsels of the country. Scarcity of Money. There is no doubt but the present condi tion of all kinds of business and industry is foarfully depressed, and it behooves every family to look carefully to their ex penses. Winter is coming on when chil dren aro liable to Croup, Whooping Cough, etc. Coughs and Colds will pre vail everywhere, and Consumption, with other throat and lung diseases, will carry oil many.—These diseases should not be neglected.

The following is an extract from a description, published in the New York Tribune, by the wel known agriculturist, Solon Robinson: All the farmers were of tho "well to do” sort, and some of them, who have turned their attention to fruits and market gardening, have grown rich. The soil is loarn, varying from sandy to clayey, aud surface gently undulating, intersected with spiall streams and occasional wet meadows, in which deposits of peat or muck are stored, sufficient to fertilize the whole upland surface, after it has been exhausted of its natural fertility. It is certainly one of the most extensive fertile traets, in an almost level position, and suitable condition for pleasant farming, that we know of this side of the Western prairies. We found some of the oldest farms apparently just as profitably productive as when first cleared of forest fifty or a hundred,years ago. The geologist would soon discover the cause of this continued fertility. The whole country is a marine deposit, and all through the soil we found evidences of calcareous substances, generally In tho form of indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, of the tertia ry formation; and this marly substance is scattered all through the soil, iu a very comminuted form, aud iu the exact condition most easily assimilated by such plants as the farmer desires to cultivate.
