I HOT! SOUTH CAROLINA. The Ciilef JuatlcenUlp. Special to Charleston News and Courier. Columbia, May 8. The situation in regard to the Chief Justiceship remains apparently without change; but I have it from trustworthy sources that within tbe next two or three days Gary's sup porters in the Senate, whom he now uses to defeat Willard by deferring the election, will desert him, and that Willard will then be elected beyond peradventure. What is to be the moving cause to effect this result, I am not at liberty to disclose. For Associate Justice the only two recognized candidates now in the Held are Gen. Kershaw and "Col. A. C. Haskell. The latter. I am ui- formed, has twenty votes pledged to him on the first ballot. JUDGE WEIGHT'S CASK. The Wright investigating commit tee intend making their report to the House to-morrow.

The evi dence will all be submitted with the report.. Tbe United state and War. the Foreign New York, May 8. There is much discussion in official circles as to the position which the United States hold with regard to the two European governments now at war. It is said the Turkish Minis ter mav have had a point in view in promptly communicating to Secreta ry Evarts the fact or the declaration of war, and that the failure of the Rus sian government to notify the United States of the beginning of war, may involvo this government in trouble, unless steps are taken to avoid it. It is stated that agents of the Turkish government in this country are ptac- tically engaged in purchasing and shipping munitions of war to Con stantinople. It is also said that the Russian go vernment has emissaries scattered alone the coast, who are in commu nication with the Russian fleet, with instructions to report the departure of any vessels with ar material for Turkey, so that tbe Russian fleet might intercept and capture teem. the IlllMlnK Steamer. New York, May 8. No news has. vet been received of the steamer City of Brussels, with the Canadian pilgrims, now eighteen days out from New York to Queens- town.

North Carolina has been said to be the finest undeveloped mineral field in the world,and each day's investigation of it adds proof to the assertion. Mr W. W. Fleraming, of this city, found a singular looking mineral in Western North Carolina some time since, and sent it on to his father-in-law, Rev. Dr. Ralston, of Philadelphia, to be analyzed. The analysis proves it to be something altogether new to the scientific and tnineralogieal world. It The Morning VOL.

If ever there lived a man who was a friend to everybody in deed and in truth, that man was Dr. Hill. If he every had an enemy we never heard of it, and everybody bad a good word for him. N.

At the meeting of the Carolina Yacht Club, on Monday night, no business was done, a postponement being bad until to-morrow (Friday) evening, when the members will meet at tbe same place and proceed toorinize for the summer regatta campaign Want to Go Home. Subscriptions are being solicited to aid the Arabs or Algerians in getting to New York, where they hope to secure work or help to get home through the assistance of the Ara bian Consul and other friends at that place. The Arabs, seven in number, are all indes titute circumstances, and being unable to speak our language or understand anything said to them, sick and far away from home and friends, their condition is certainly an unenviable one. They were on the eve of starting for New York on foot, when Ro bert McEenzie, one of the Captains of the police force, and W. K. Price, Deputy in the City Clerk's office, feeling for their dee olate condition, offered to make an effort to raise an amount sufficient to take them to New York, Or at least to enable them to supply themselves with the necessaries of life until they reach there. Contributions left with tbe parties mentioned will no doubt be properly applied Returned to Hit Old Quarter. Joseph Binlan, the seaman referred to in our last as having mysteriously disap peared after having been taken from the chain-gang by a shipping master and shipped on a vessel about to sail from this port, returned to the guard house the same evening, about "half seas over," to bid bis late comrades and associates good by, say ing he was going away, upon which Capt. Fitzgerald ordered him to be locked up to await a requisition from the Captain of the vessel he had engaged to sail upon. Auotber Pounding. Our friends of the Front Street Metho dist Church held another of their pleasant "poundings" on Tuesday evening. In this instance the gifts were for the poor, and from tbe packages of sugar, coffee, tea, &c, presented, tbey must have been favorably remembered, which from the number of persons present tbe gathering must also have been a very pleasant one.

Worth, of tbe firm of Weller & Worth, 40 Vine St., Cincinnati, Ohio, writing under date of May 7th, has" this to say about the peanut crop: "I notice this morning in The Morning Star of the 5th an article on the peanut crop. 1 he writer was not very well posted concerning the present crop in Tennessee. We had in this city, on the first day of May, a stock of sixty-five thousand bags (65,000). One of the largest receivers here, who has recently been over the peanut pro ducing section of Tennessee, states that there is at least thirty-five thousand bags yet to be marketed. Tbe bags used will average a little over five bushels each, which would make a crop of 500,000 bushels, 200,000 bushels more than you state. It is a well established fact that the peanut growers of Tennessee at least two thirds of them cannot grow any other crop that will pay them as well Two- thirds of the area producing peanuts every year, will not produce twenty ' bushels of corn to the acre. The facilities for market ing meir crops are aoout as poor as can well be imagined, many of them having to haul their entire products from thirty to forty miles, at great expense, and even then they can sell their peanuts at fifty cents per bushel and live, as the majority of the producers are a poor, impecunious set, who can live on a very little. The average market price here to-day is seventy five cents per bushel. The producers pay fifteen cents a piece for bags and get about three cents each when sold. The shipments to the country so far this year aggregate about one-third as great as for the corre sponding period last year. "With the present immense stock here large stock in Norfolk, Ya., and other points, no demand of consequence, and the certain fact tbat there will be fully half as many acres planted in Tennessee this year as there were last, I can see no hope for peanuts advancing, either this or next year, to a remunerative figure to your producers. unless this should be a more prosperous year to the laboring classes, who are un doubtedly the consumers. If the crop o Tennessee should prove an entire failure tbe coming season, we have, at the present rate of consumption, enough to carry us through another season. There are too many peanuts, and too few people who have that stray Dickie to spend, for even so cheap a luxury. " THE PILOT FUND. The following subscriptions to the fund for the relief of the families of the lost pi lots have been received at this office: T. M. A.,... $2 00 A member of St. John's Parish, thro' Rev. Geo. Patterson 5 00 E. Kidder & Sons 50 00 A lady, through Dr. E. A. Anderson 5 00 Two Ladies, through Mrs. C. G. K. 3 00 Mrs. H. Webb 10 00 James H. Chadbonrn & Co 25 00 G. D 2 00 D.

In order to afford ample time to all who wish to participate in the celebration, pre pare decorations, &c. , it has been suggested that all places of business, like the banks, be closed at the ringiBg of the 1 o'clock bell and remain closed until 6 o'clock, and tbat as many of our business houses as possible be draped in mourning. Surely we can do this much once a year for those who sacrificed their lives for the "lost cause," wbicb tbey believed to be just and right. Charged with Larceny. Jane McMillan, colored, was arraigned before Justice Gardner, yesterday, on the charge of stealing tbe sum of $15 from Mrs. J. W. Moody. The evidence was circumstantial, but deemed sufficient to re quire a bond in tbe sum of $100 for her ap pearance at the next term of tbe Criminal Court,-which was given and she was re leased from custody.

TO ALL, PARTICULARLY INVALIDS, spring is a trying season. Indications of sickness should at once be attended to. Fatal diseases muy be caused by allowing the bowels to become constipated and the system to remain in a disordered condition, un til the disorderhas time to develop itself. An ounce of prevention is wertb a pound of cure, is an old and truthful saying. Therefore, we advise all who are troubled with the cemplaints now very preva lent headache, indigestion, disordered liver, want of appetite, nausea, or feverish skin, to take, with out delay, Schenck's MandrakePills . We know of no remedy so harmless and decisive in its action It at once strikes at the root of the disease and pro duces a healthy tone to the system. People never need suffer from any disease arising from a disor dered condition of the liver if they would take 1 his excellent medicine when they feel the first indica tions of the malady. Families leaving home for the summer months should take three or four boxes of these phis with them. They have an almost instan taneous effect. They will relieve the patient of headache in one or two hours, and will rapidly cleanse the liver of surrounding bile, and will effec tually prevent a billions attack. They are sold by all druggists.
