A SECOND EMANCIPATION. SO the Nesroea Construe the Decisions of the Court. The two decisions reuderl hy Unit.-i States J udges Goff and aimonton at Colum bla, 8. C, tho one ma'iin a free ballot anl the other sounding the d..-ath-kn;!l of the dispensary law, apparently have created a big etir all over the State, and some pretty wild talk is beins indulged in. The a Imiii latration is more or worried. For the present Governor Evans and tha Etate authorities are paying no tt-:it'oa whatever to tbe nitration matt.-r. Vs Governor Evans has already Mi, he do.-s not propose to call any extra f.ion of tiie Legislature, or proctwd furth r in th n-'ie-tration eases. However, yet, notliin h;is been finally dec-Mod in n-ard to this matter. The negroes regard the matter as a sof ond emancipation, and the JlinLsterial Unio'i, re cently formed, of which every wro minis ter is a member, organized to fiht acain.t their impending disfranehfsemeut, i.-ued an address which thanks the attorneys in the case and "the many friends of th.,- n-u'ro.-s in their flht for emancipation from the tu-1 and unlawful registration laws, which de barred white and black aiiko from the exer eise of their constitutional franchise. And proceeds thu3: '-We bog to say further that we have always proved true to that fac tion of white men who protected us in that awful regime of nero banishment and crn-1 threats which were poured upon the neru even though he was quiet, and as helpless as he was quiet. Now that the clouds ar. driv en away, we shall vote for and with our White friends for good government, seeking nly for that minority representation whi -h any reasonable white man will accord us. "We recognize the fact that intelligence and money must rule, and to which we cheer fully subscribe. Thwre shall never arise by our assistance, the condition of affairs prior to '76, neither do we desire the return of tn condition of affairs so recently laid lo 'by the decision of the Federal Court" " "It is the purpose of the BvflfcHto can a conference as soon as we lttt the dition. and advise our ? o t for our white frie am01J tho consK.rvi tlves. , "Wej propose to follow the defunct ReP'o1icans hith.-rto styled leaders. !,;--fve in decent men for State olfi -ers. even among them, and if su'-h eau't i had we tshall have all Democrats. It matters but lit tle to us at any rate so far as local politics are concerned. "We are Republicans, whi' h we do not de ny, but we must live here with our Democratic- white neighbors; experi-n'-e has trtn.irht Us this, and no man, white or liii'-k. will ever be able agaiu to lead the negroes as they did In former days. "Now that peace has come between tho races, we mean to maintain it." The white friends they refer to are not in the faction which at present has control of tho State. The administration people arc giving all their attention to their dispensary df-i-ion and injunction, and .studying up its effect, in consultation with their fri-uds, wltii a vi-w to definitely determining tin; course the State would pursue. It became known that the administration nnd dispensary authorities had decided to take advantage of a peculiarity in the deeJh- ion a necessary peculiarity n ord r to evade the operation of Ju.l Sinr'tilon's Injunction in certain eases, and to sav - the constables from punishment for c ulcin; t of court in cases when-such seizures -,vere made. The order says that no liquor siuili be molested in any way that is brought into iiie Btate for individual use. Now the scheme i.j to make the constables seize stutf that is s-ut in where they think it is not for personal us--, making them the judges. Then, it hauled no for contempt they can net up the defence that they were convinced that the stuif was for other than individual use. And the sane 6cheme is to apply to searchers. This raises a nice question. This is a plain statement of the plan. How it will work is a matter fur Judge tfimoiitou's consideration. Carrying out this plan, the following circu lar of instructions to constables was to-night issued: To Constables. Seize all liquor coining into the Stat;; for other than p.T.-onal use. Guard and watch "blind tigers" carefully, and seize all liquor ia the possesion of "blind tigers" or of those outraged iu the illicit traftle of liquor. The circular was ent out by tin-Slate Board of Control, oi which Governor Evans is tho chairman. The Injunction !ssolve1. At Ilunlincton. Y.

Probable The decision ii? the registration case of ' M'l!s vs. Greer: was read by Judge Goff in j the United States Circuit court at O.jumbia, j S. C, on Wednesday. It was very 1-ngthy. j D holds that the .-ourt has no juri'die-tt-b; I that no official Sta'e or K?ticn?Jt is above th i law; that as to f hr constitutionality of th ! registration law, that citizens ot a State are j citizens of th United States, residing in that State, and that Mills i3 such and that the i plaintiffs claims are sustained by the dec I- j s:on of the court; that the registration laws' ; requirement of certificate"? is not arraete4 J by the laT; that the repriotr!tion I4W Ls uo- . constitutional iri?H.-h feioiirement; that the ' cortftitntlonAl act does not cure the defects; j tha thfc whole laws are unconstitutional; that the proceeding is not against the Stat; that this court in a court of the state, as well ' aof the United States. Tho court therefor j issues a permanent injunction. Judge Simor.ton uext r.sd his decision ia i tfc.; dispensary ca-e of Donalds V3 the 3tat i co nst i Meg, declaring that lit court has jn ri.viktioa that provisions of the dispensary I law arc a violation of th- United States In- j ter-trttu Commerce, and that th& issue if KMiited us prayed for. j TJtis decision will either result in an extra Session of the lejriplature or an abandonment oi the proposed constitutional convention c.t'led to meet in 9 -pteml.er. The Jaws de clared void include the entire registration system of thri State. He also decided against the dispensary law so far as it relates to seizures of liquors shipped into the State-. This decision will seriously effec t thedispen sary as the hostility to it leads people to ven pay more for .same goods in preference to patronizing it. The cases of contempt against State commissioner Mixon and two co. isia'iles for seiz'ir"s in violation of Judge G !f .- order were dismissed n view of dis i.tiniers and apologies made. Tho injunction Is an iron-clad one, the meat of it being in the following: "Ordered, adjudged and decreed that a v.-rit of injunction be awarded aud do is.Sije out of "this court, commanding and enjoining ami restraining the defendants, M. T. lioUey, Sr., as chief constable of the Stue of South Carolina, a-id all the other State constables oT the State of South Carolina nd ofticers and other persons Ectim; under him, aud their sueceseors in office, and also the d fendants, J. 51.

'As to tho dispensary," said Governor Evans. "It will continue its operations as heretofore, and th'.- ease will be push-'d to tne Supreme Court of the United States as speedily as possible. It is an absurdi'y to argu" that Congress has the right to pass a law giving to ttie State the right to absolutely control whiskey brought into thetorders of the S:at as though it were manufactured ia the Mate and yet powerless if perchance a perjured bar-keep.-r may maiutain it ia for his own use and consumption."

Lessons In the TobacAO Farm. Out line! of the Process. South Carolina tobacco, as a role, has been best adapted for hhrh gnd wrappers and for smoking tol-occo-. Ttvse reqdire the best grade0 nPtUrolly; and the curing also Las ; bad much to do with th- hish prices that j nave be.'n paid for oout' Carolina tobacco. Tobacco can be cured Lttwo ways, by cut ting the leaves and curing on wires as tha leaves ripen, and also Vy ntting down the stalk, leaves and ail. and during differently Somc wtat from thfc wire or steel process. It j has been the rulw in Dar njjton and Florence j eeurtie5 to Ollre oil the ii ;ks and wires, but j ihis may perhaps be changed, as the large manufacturers are now urging that tobacco i shall be stalk cured. Th.. mode of curing I is deemed so much more desirable by th I manufacturers that Borne of them have in structed their local buyers to adhere, as ! strictly as pible, to purchasing stalked j cured to! a .- icy the'3-. The buyers of j Wrapi.r I'.-wc i.wa j-nrtJ-'alarly instructed j to purchase sralk-cured tobacco, and tho i manufa-tii rSsay tl el test of this will j clearly convince all of the .jperiority of this , to the w re-eured tobacoo,td they prophesy j the early abandonment oi the curing by j wire. j If it is desired to cure on the wires the leaves are token from the plant asthey riien, care beiag taken not to gather green leaves. Thci arc placed in baskets and conveyed to tl j curing barns and there strung on the v ires, four to six inches apart, on each point J acconling to size of leaf. Extra care must j again be taken to avoid bruising or other- j wise damaging tha leaves. The sticks are ; th a hung in the tarns on tier poles, about t veive inches apart, beginning at the top of J fie barn and filling it. When the barn is ! Ullcd. which must be dune on the day the j wood is consumed, close the ventilators, j start a slow fire in tho furnace and gradually i raise the temperature to 'JO 3 or 95 Fah- j renheit. Hold the temperature at this heat for twelve hours, which will toughen tho I leaf, then advance the heat 2 an hour uu- j til one hundred is reached. Again hold tho i temperature ttationary for tw -lve hours, then open ventilators and let the heat remain j at 100 3 for six hours, whea the sweat will be sufficiently dried oft and the tobacco will be sufficiently colored to again advance tho ! he.it. Then advance the heat 1 ' per hour I until 110 is reached in a sixteen-foot barn, j and 150 is reached in a twwnty-foot barn. ! Hold at this temperature until the leaf is j killed or cured, which will usually be in about twelve hours. I Close ventilators now and advance at 2J j to 5 per hour until 170 is reached, then I hold the ten p-rnture until the stemsorstalks j are cured, wuieh will be about in eighty hours j f rom the time thv3 barn was filled. Theu open j the doors aDd the ventilators and let the barn J cool. When the tobacco becomes soft enough to fold the leaf so as not to break the small ! 111. res in the leaf, then take the wires down, strip off the leaves and carry them to the pnek house and bulk it down, turning the ! tk's of the leaves iu and the butts out. Care must here be taken not to have the tobacco in too high "case" when it is taken down and bulked, and that causes it to redden and mold, which distracts materially from the value of the tobacco. The sums process of curing can be success fully followed in btalk curing. As stated before, some of the large manufacturers prefer stalk cured tobacco, but there is no reason why careful attention should not pro duce oqnatiy satisfactory results by curing with the wire process. Careful reflection and talks with Darlington and Florence county planters indicate decidedly that this is the case. When tobacco 'f properly cured it seems that it is evidently cared as well in one of ihcsa ways as it is in the otner, and the highest prices havs been paid for wire cnre.t tobaeco during the past two seasons. Stalk curing can only be successfully done when all the leaves ripen at the same time, aud this may or may not be the case. For sonic reason, the large manufacturers, some of them, at least, prefer the stalk cured to bacco, and when a planter can do so it would be v.-eit for h.rn to make the experiment for himself a-i. I test the comparative, value of the two processes. Let lum remember, in either case, that he cannot be too careful when he commences curing his tobacco. Afie-the toiiucco has been cared aixl pack ed away or "oulked down" in the pack barn it should remain iu this condition until it is decided to M-H it. When the planter de-M to carrv tobacco to the warehouse for sab) he should have ever-thii!g carefully pre ; :i.-.-il ot io!v!ianl. While the toba-vo is in the pack bam it snould be carefully gradel. and this is not hard to learn. This is done by carefully assorting the leaves of uniform -iV.e. color anil texture in separate piles. Then the leaves must be tied up in "hands' ni from six to twelve leaves in each hand. I a arranging or assorting these different g-a.les it '-important that each grade be kept separate ua-i uistiuci. Tiie diiTerent gr;ides may i-e hung on the stick or may be bulked as th. planter may prefer. It is not a diffi cult process to grade tobacco properly, as the leaves that most resemble each other are not bard t get together. The colored hands taiva to toli.i- i-o culture naturally, und seem to like it very much. In several instances a-!:oi.g th" planters of Darlington and Flor in -e counties colored men do the grading entirely after having hail some experience in cu'dng an.l bulking the tobacco. Toi-a-co is n t sold as is auy other agricul tural pro he t in South. Carolina. After the farmer has graded it he carries it to the near.'-.-t a id iwst warehouse. The proprietor meets hi..; aud his tobacco, along with any other tat mav have been carried to the ware house tnat lay. is pla ed in piles ad ever tee j 1'oor. -a-h piii-belonging to a different own- 1 er, wnose na r.e is placed on it. When every- j tiling is rcalv the auctioneer commences j wor... the buyers gather around, and the live- j lost kind of bidding is seen. The name of the i highest bidder and the number of pounds of i t..t ;i in eiich pib he buys is attached to a . card, at-. ' th" sellers may accept or rej.vt any j bid tnat is ma le. The auctioneer continues ; until everv lot has N-en sold, ami after this ; !:.xs Ufa done the buyers and sellers get to- J get her for a s tt lenient. I It has U-en thoroughly and pra.-tically j il moe.-tratc l that toOac-o culture ia South Cm-iina is a sue--ess. The planters of Dar- bngton and Florence counties have ei-tab- I sh -1 this fact, and they have had diffkrul- a (option of the tithing system by the mem ies in doing so. At no time has the work t."rs .,f tre ir ehur -h-s. tie- 1--a ensv. and at many stages it was raoM I dis -ouraging. There is no doubt ; that great car must be taken in almost ; everv .1-tail of tobacco culture, but. on the oth- "r hau l, there is no doubt but that great ! r -wards are in ptore for thos-i who make tha j effort. It is. lieyon.l question, the moneyed ! crop f. r S..uth Carolina, and the fact that it j requires great care and attention should only ; be an incentive to ambitious planters. It well r epajs every effort bestowed upon it, and for these verv reasons it can never be a common j r.-.r, s-aaH crons of Ave aortas that were ; ! carefully attended to and properly cultivated j have in several oa.es yieiaet mucn nana- somer results than titty acres planted in cot- ; ton. Let what was said in the Iirst one of j th'e letters W rerat""! here, and this wnl xpiain. it is hoped, on -re more why it is best i t i-t rn u.y Im kt propr.ated for tb-i trattsla o be careful. "Now common isens-i is worth ! ti .n .f the Libit itto th languages of the to !u.-t as much in tobacco culture as it is any where else. These letters, it is hoped, have shewn whv tobacco culture fdiould bo carefully done, but they need excite no fears with any farmer who is willing to take pains with what he d .n-s.

It showed thai the receipts have been o53,034, as against t48,539 last year. This doe, not include t4.V75 received from the "Missionary Dav collections in the Bunday schools. Aid h.: been given to schools iu Texas, Arkansa-, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Flund. North Carolina (State Convention), Westt ri. North Carolina, North Georgia and Tenntt ee. The board recommended the appoint ment of a committee on young people's wort, and the report was referred to committees on Sabbath schools and young people's work. The work of the foreign mission boa-d wa presented by B. T. Willingham, correspond ing secretary, and referred to committees on Pagan fields and financial policy. Tho total amount given for the cause in the past year was over 129,000,but expenses for collecting it in the States reduced the receipts of the board to tl25,417. This was more by $20, 000 than the receipts of the previous year, and f 13.000 more than anv Drevious vear. ex- , cept, oi course, tne centennial vear. OI a the money received by the board, 92 ctnle en tne dollar went to the missionaries. Only 8 cents on the dollar was used for expenses, and this includes also the cost of the Wo men's Missionary Union in Baltimore. The Woman's Missionary Union raised f 5,397 to- ward liquidating the debt of the foreign 1 uoara. ana tne mate societies eontriDuted to the general fund $24,933.

SECOND DAT. j The second day's proceedings of the South- j ern Baptist Convention were begun with J prayer by Kev. Dr. Lofton. ; The report of the committee on tithing was , read by ltev. F. M. Ellis, of Brooklyn. Tho j report among other things said : "Great as has been the success of the Con- I vention for the past fifty years, her diseour- j agetfieuts aud struggles have at times been I such as to test the faith and endurance of her j most faithful friends and staunehest leaders j in the very -ru ible of financial embarrass- meats. These oft-repeated embarrassments j were not caused for want of numbers nor for i want of wealth. We have the numerical i strength, the intelligence and the wealth, j Tiies' oft-recurring embarrassments are evi dently th? natural results of our defective lina-i -ial system. 1 "Your committee believe that full relief i neei not b hor.-.l for until our church mem- , ! individually and voluntarily adopted ; tho scriptural systematic plan of paying to Go 1 at least one-tenth of their income. Then j we believ the mcaos will be available 'for all the purposes of Christ's kingdom.' We arc sons and daughters of God. not slaves j and serfs. What duty can be more plain, ! simple, just and practical than God's law of I the tenthy Ail can give a tenth, no matter j how poor. Is not this law as important as it I ever was? Consecrating wealth is coreren- j tr.iting power. If a tenth of the Jew's in- ; come and a seventh of Uis time was not too . much to ask of him. is it too much to ask of i the Chri.-tianV Is ours a lower standard than I was the JewY'.' Will tbe Christian excuse j himself for what was robbery of God in a j Jew? Th ; tenth is sacredly God's liefore ; aught is claimed for ourselves or for others. , "Your eoinmittee recommends the adopt- 1 ing of the tithing system, and that our sever- j al State Conventions, district associations, ' the p-istors, churches and missionary socie- j ties increa-M their efforts to educate our peo- j pie in paying systematically to God not less 1 than one-t-nl h of their income." The discussion of the report of the com- j roittee on t. thing van opned by Rev. E. Y. ! Midins. of Baltimore.

It also ap pears to be an excellent appetizer and timu- fnt of the nro -es-LS of digestion and sim- ilation. and when given to unthrifty hogs it increases the appetite and causes them to take on flesh and assume a thrifty appear ance. During the administration ot the medicine hygienic treatment should be most carefully observed, The hogs should be kept dry and free from exposure to drafts ol air. The p'ns in which the disease first appears should be thoroughly disinfected by dustiug with "dry air-slaked lime" or by using a 5 per cent solution of carbolic acid. The diseased hogs should, if possible, be kept apart from the healthy, and their pens should be frequently disinfected by one of the above mentioned methods. As au addi tional precaution I would suggest that the water given the hogs lor drinking purposes be guarded against contamination by the re fuse from the Finally, bogs which have died during the prevalence of the dis ease should be immediately burned or buried very deeply.
