well told him it was not due till Fall,
and lie would not pay it until due.
Conrad used abusiye nod insulting
language, and Mlr. Creswell ordered
him out out of the house. lie went
rather reluctantly, and Mr. C. follow
ed him to the froit yard gate. What
words passed between the parties at
the gate is not known.
About half-past eight a negro
living in the yard by the name of

for help. Ile hastened to him, and
thiiks lie was dead when he got there.
lie called another negro, natued An

Ple appearances were that Mr.

back of his head and theu stabbed to
the heart with a knile.
He was carried into the house and

We made a brief allusion last
wOk to the recent arrangemont of
the Third Congniessional District, by
Ihich Riobland Couity is put in
with Newberry, Abbeville, Laurens,
Anderson, Pickens and Oconee,
ivhen it does not join either of these
Countips. This unprecedented ation
of thoLegislature must surely moet
with the indignInt condemnation of
*ie-y honest and fair-minded citizin.
Of course, it was intended to secure
:political ends by this absurd divis.
ion of the State. But is the present.
arrangement legal, aud likely to
stand tfie'test of scrntiny ? Could an
opposition' :ndidate, eieoted by the
remaining counties, obtaia the seat
at Washington, on the ground that
Richland County is not contig- ous to
any part of the Distrio'6 I We are
not certain that the Gerr-mandering t
practiced upon the people of South (

voting population of this Congres. r
sion'al District, including Richiand 0
County, gives the ool-red people it -
majosity of 1500 votes, while the
whites leave a majority of 500 votes, .

indifference in strength between the

elect a member of Congress from this P
District, who would trialy represeht a
the tax-payi'ng and property-holding

Gov. Kemper, of Virginia. iaq
written a long letter in answer to the i
"Wedderburn Jlaseo." He explains i
his poli3y with regard to Grant and a P
third term. While he does not favor u
a third term per s, he can conceive
of worse things and bitterer alterna- eC
tiv's. He concludes as follows :
As to the Federal Executive head t
I shall render him, not factious hos.
tility, but a rair and unprejudiced
judgment. For the sake of ourselves
and the whole country, I shall rejoice b
if he so emulate the example of
Washington ; if he so aid in restoring
the landmarks of the Constitution, ai
lately overthrown by the violence of'
arms ; if he so respect the right of "
thol State and the people to sell 0
government, as to command our uni.
ted and hearty. support of the whole
of his future administration. So far a
as his influence has saved us from
the degrAdution of test-oath and civil
rights las ; so far as he has abtai-t
ed from exercising the centralizing I
and dangerous powers of tihe engforce
tient act., he is entitled to our grati
tude and support. But I emphati
cally do not endorse a great part of
his policy in respect to a nitional d
currency; and if he adopts, as a rule of
his administration, suh ihtet'med
dling in local affairs as that jost re -
sorted to at Petersburg by the A ttor
ney-General cf the Uniited States,P
then he will establish between us
and himself a gulf as i.opassable asv
that which separates good from tivil
in ainother life."
W~ell and boldly said. We have t(
faith in Kemper. HeI hias shown him- ti
self to be an upright Governor and a I
sensible man.0
The tests made by the Idlnglish t
Government with the newly invenited ti
fireproof powder chests, are said tr
by Dingler's Journal to have shown p
very -satisfactory results. These p
cbests are described as being similar
to the drdinary fireproof safes, with
unusuialy thick walls, composed of 0
four-inch chambers fillied with saw-a
dust and alum. 0n exposure to heat ti
the alum melts, and the fifty-t wo per ce

placed, dutring the tests in question, f
in separate furnaces, and after being "

powder in two of them, oi ekam ina

chests themselves appearing in good

A careful examination has beei
made by Prof. Hayes, of thp chnrap
tar of deposits In boiler flues. A
described in the American Chemist
thest, deposits he finds to be of tw<
kinds, both of which are capable o
corroding the iron rapidly, espooialla
when the boilers are heated and it
operation. The most common onc
consists of soot--nearly pure carbot
-saturated with pyroligneous acid
and contains a large proportion 01
iron if the deposits i an old one, m
very little iron if it has been ree at
ly formed. The other has a babii of
soot and fine coal ashes, filled with
sulphur acils, and containing more oi
less iron, the quality depending on
the age of the deposit. Prof Hayee
asserts that the pyroligneous depos.
its are always occasioned by want of
judgment in kindling and managine
the fires ; that is, the boilers being
cold the fires are generally started
with wood, pyroligneous acid then
distills over the tubes, and collecting
with the soot already there forms the
nuoleuis for the deposits, which soon be
come permanent, and more dangerous
every time wood is used in the fire
place afterward. The ulphur acid
depoists derive their acide from the
coals used, but the basie materlil,
holding these acids, is at first ocea
sioned by cleaning. br shaking the
grates soon after idding fresh charger
of coal. Fine ashes are thus driver
