As the dog returns to his vomit and the hog to wallowing in the *> mire, so Atlanta has returned to her folly in voting to all »w the re-open- i n<r oi ^ro^shops. The Governor's messa^o is a lonjr. but conservative document. lie discusses 11»<* various questions of interest with clearness and as one having the best interests of the State at heart and earnestly desiring to sop these interests advanced. Kev. Win. Thomas l»»f< yesterday morning for Spartanburg to attend the Session of the Annual Conference, which convened yesterday, lie preached his farewell sermon fortius Conference year Sunday morning from John xvi:33, the last two clauses. % One has well said: "A true Chris, : l:. »i i * ' » « u<:u iivmi^ m 111o worm is ilkr ;i >t;:p sailin<r on the ocean.

So the world, with its love of pleasure oettino into the hearts of Christians, has ruined its .millions. Miss Ani.ie Hemphill will manage the Abbeville M'<liuni d urine1 the absence in Columbia of her father, Gen. K. K. Hemphill, who a member of the Statu Senate, it was for sometime a mystery to ns how one ifhi/t could work up so many "loeuio" that appeared in the M< until we learned that the editor had two lively, (we like to have written lovely) daughters assisting him. ThankatHving in Conway was very flfmerally observed. All the stores, Except two, were closed and employer and employees entered heartilv Into the spirit of the* occasion. The pastor of the Methodist church preached a vory oatriotic sermon on the subject of "Submission to the powers that exist." lie was very eulogistic of the form of jrovornment in the 1'nited States contrastintr it with C"> other forms of government in tho old world, and making it a subject for devout tlmnksirivine- to the liuler of n r-> tho universe. Her. (>. W. McM ilan, of Whitevillo, occupied tho Kingston Prvsbyterian pulpit last Saturday night, Sunday and Sunday night, nud preached throe very plain and practical sermons. Wo had the pleasure of hearing two <tf them and can testify to their orthodoxy and prominent practicalness. IIo does not affect the spread eagle style of oratory, hut discusses a question for tho take of impressing its practical, religious doctrines upon his hearers, and inducing them to accept its truhts and act them in their lives. lie received two members into the fellowship of tho Kingston Presbyterian church, one by certificate from be Flore n co Presbyterian church, Mrs. Carrie L. (Julbraith, and one by profession, Albert /,. Ihinta. We attended last Friday the monthly ovamination of the Burroughs High School, and were much pleased and gratified at progress of the pupils under the present management. Tho fact was developed that the Principal is giving thorough instruction, and that the scholars are profiting by it. It is doubtful, if a history class can be found in the Styte, of the snine age and genoial attainments, that can excel tho recitation of one wo heard Friday mornitig io this school. Tho Principal's method of examination is not 1 »y simple question and answer. But he would submit a few minutes beforehand a written question requiring tho pupil to givo the prominent events In the life of certain historical personages, &c. For instance, one would be asked to tell about the important Spanish discoveries in America, another French discoverios, another to tell all ho know about Columbus, another about Americus Vospucius, another about Corte/e, and so on, and tho most of the class would rattlo them off with tho volubility of a professor: The school room is now very well furnished with the exception of the insufficiency of blackboads, and these, we think, will soon be supplied.

As ;i consequence our merchants wear pleasing faces from dawn till dark, and every body seems to slmro their buoyancy. Mr. ()glosby of Whitevillo has opened a lino stock of groceries in the store formerly occupied by Crawford Waters. The 11 igh School Hook store has been headquarters for books since September and is growing in stock, popular favor, and reputation daily, it is run by .las A. Smith and Frank Powell.

(From Our Ki>t;itlar Ooriv.-<|>ontl«'»t > By actual count there are now soventy-ti\o Congressmen at the Capital, ami the list is lonirthoncil on the arrival of nearly every tiain. Amonjr tln» most prominent of tlio members I have notieeil on the Avenue (tlr.tV IVnnsvlvania avenue -so ealleil by all W'ashinotonians) Messrs. Yoorheos, I larrison. hhlmumls ami Kvarts, of tlio Senate, anil Messrs. Carlisle, Springer, jHreekenriilire, anil Davennort of the House." Two other tomarkablo men ami notable figures who are often seen on the streets are the Kx-1 'resilient of the Senate ami the 1'resilient of the Senate, John Siierman, ami John J. Imoills. The stately form of the Ohio Senator is seldom seen outside of his carriage on 1 lio streets, while on the other hand, the lono, willowy fijrure of the picturesque Kansan ean often oe seen miuelino with the thrones that frequent the thoroughfares of this heautiful city. If one wishes to eateh a olimjise oeeasional!y of most of the national solons, the best jilaee t.o take a stand, outside of the 1'apitol itself, is in the corridors of the different departments, near the doors of the Secretary's olliee. When a common mortal, lik" you or I. dear reader, would enter the awe inspir1110 presence of a ('al)iuet minister, the oldij/ino door-keeper always hands out a card, with blanks, where, in we are required to state "name and nature of business,'* and send it. in by a messenger before there is the slightest chance for admission; but, when a "member" as they are popu- larlv known, appears, the door llies open as if hv tna^ic by tlio timo lie is in six font of it. It is said that Mr. ('arlisle, pro- suminir on his election as Speaker, which nobody doubts, is e.'istino about for suitable material for ('on-! orossional committees a task that .vill tax tho irroat tact and skill of n the Kentucky statesman to accom plish satisfactorily, as there are a hundred or more nVw men to place a ^reat number of the ablest and most experienced Congressmen havine been reloaded to the peace- fill of private life. As foreshadowed in my last letter, .1 . - - -1 liu* resignation 01 l omtnissioner of tin) Land Ollice Sparks lias taken place- the President lotting down tin* arrogant and rebellious oHicial as easily as possible. * This was the only way, outside of a peremptory dismissal, to properly rebuke the persistent insubordination of the irascible lllinoian, who constantly deported himself in ollieo as if he was lord of all he surveyed. It is the oossip of the hotel and departmental coridtors that some opposition is dovelopinir to the conlir- I l r> uiation of Secretary Lamar's probable nomination to the Supreme Bench, chiefly on account of his advanced atfe- he is entering his (>3rd year O r"> J and it appears that this feeling is by no means conlined to his political opponents. There is a disposition on the part of several Republican Senators to raise a sectional outcrv aoainst tin; Secretary on account of his liavino within the past four years championed the civil chieftain of the! Southern Confederacy, on the floor1 of the United States Senate. It is broadly intimated that the Supreme Court is equally divided on the issue of the prohibition cases from Iowa, Kansas and (leomia, and that the new Justice will have to cast the deeidimr vole it now ri " ~ four to four nine l>oin<r a full bench. In 1 ho celebrated driven well case, tlio Supreme Court lias recently rendered a decision against the pntontee, who claims a royalty of ten dollars each on all the driven wells in the I 'nited States.the number bo-j nnr estimated at three millions. u'ho deficiencies for the transportation of the mails amounted to from ei^ht to fifteen million dollars per annum a few years since; but those deficits have been gradually reduced until they now are no more than a million a year -so that by the end oi the present year the Postollico Department promises to bo on a self- sustaining basis.

I'oeteited hainl <juestioii* Senator Patterson has well called attention to the subject of "Porfeited Lands," referred to subsequently in (Jovornor Piehardsun's .Message. This is Senator Patterson's snmrest ion. "Let the State, by Act of its Leo- O islatlire. ivnnniwn ;i 11 rurl.t .....I » tlo l»v forfeiture to hind now on forfeited land lM, direet the County Auditor to restore eaeli of sueh j>iir- J eels to the tax duplicate with all taxes aecrued aoaiust il since the last payment of its taxes, rcnuirc the owner to pay all taxes in arrear on or before a oiven day say 15th l)e- eeinher, 1SSS; if not then paid direct,! its ollieors to levy by distress on the I lands of defaulters, (that is, to take exclusive possession of them,) adver- tise and sell them, and put the pur- chaser in possession." The facts us oivon in the message are that we have on the forfeited land list 1)14,8511 acres of land. These lands pay no taxes to the govern- inent. It will be seen at a irlance L I « mow important, lor tins matter to re- ceive legislative consideration, to the I end that tho revenues of tho State may l>o increased and our taxes for tint support of tho State Government increased.

We attended last Friday themonthly ovamination of the BurroughsHigh School, and were muchpleased and gratified at progress ofthe pupils under the present management.Tho fact was developed thatthe Principal is giving thorough instruction,and that the scholars are

profiting by it. It is doubtful, if a

history class can be found in theStyte, of the snine age and genoialattainments, that can excel tho recitationof one wo heard Friday mornitigio this school.Tho Principal's method of examinationis not 1 »y simple question and

answer. But he would submit a fewminutes beforehand a written questionrequiring tho pupil to givo theprominent events In the life of certainhistorical personages, &c. Forinstance, one would be asked to tellabout the important Spanish discoveriesin America, another Frenchdiscoverios, another to tell all hoknow about Columbus, another aboutAmericus Vospucius, another aboutCorte/e, and so on, and tho most ofthe class would rattlo them off withtho volubility of a professor:The school room is now very well

Washington Letter.

(From Our Ki>t;itlar Ooriv.-<|>ontl«'»t >

By actual count there are now

soventy-ti\o Congressmen at the Capital,ami the list is lonirthoncil on thearrival of nearly every tiain. Amonjrtln» most prominent of tlio membersI have notieeil on the Avenue (tlr.tVIVnnsvlvania avenue -so ealleil byall W'ashinotonians) Messrs. Yoorheos,I larrison. hhlmumls ami Kvarts,of tlio Senate, anil Messrs. Carlisle,Springer, jHreekenriilire, anil Davennortof the House." Two other tomarkablomen ami notable figureswho are often seen on the streets are

the Kx-1 'resilient of the Senate amithe 1'resilient of the Senate, JohnSiierman, ami John J. Imoills. Thestately form of the Ohio Senator isseldom seen outside of his carriageon 1 lio streets, while on the otherhand, the lono, willowy fijrure of thepicturesque Kansan ean often oe

seen miuelino with the thrones thatfrequent the thoroughfares of thisheautiful city. If one wishes to

eateh a olimjise oeeasional!y of mostof the national solons, the best jilaeet.o take a stand, outside of the 1'apitolitself, is in the corridors of thedifferent departments, near the doorsof the Secretary's olliee. When a

common mortal, lik" you or I. dearreader, would enter the awe inspir1110presence of a ('al)iuet minister,the oldij/ino door-keeper alwayshands out a card, with blanks, where,in we are required to state "nameand nature of business,'* and send it.in by a messenger before there is theslightest chance for admission; but,when a "member" as they are popu-larlv known, appears, the door lliesopen as if hv tna^ic by tlio timo lieis in six font of it.

It is said that Mr. ('arlisle, pro-suminir on his election as Speaker,which nobody doubts, is e.'istinoabout for suitable material for ('on-!orossional committees a task that.vill tax tho irroat tact and skill ofn

the Kentucky statesman to accom

plish satisfactorily, as there are a

hundred or more nVw men to

place a ^reat number of the ablestand most experienced Congressmenhavine been reloaded to the peace-fill of private life.As foreshadowed in my last letter,

.1 . - - -1liu* resignation 01 l omtnissioner oftin) Land Ollice Sparks lias takenplace- the President lotting down tin*arrogant and rebellious oHicial as easilyas possible. * This was the onlyway, outside of a peremptory dismissal,to properly rebuke the persistentinsubordination of the irascible lllinoian,who constantly deported himselfin ollieo as if he was lord of allhe surveyed.

It is the oossip of the hotel and departmentalcoridtors that some oppositionis dovelopinir to the conlir-I l r>

uiation of Secretary Lamar's probablenomination to the Supreme Bench,chiefly on account of his advancedatfe- he is entering his (>3rd yearO r"> J

and it appears that this feeling is byno means conlined to his politicalopponents. There is a dispositionon the part of several RepublicanSenators to raise a sectional outcrvaoainst tin; Secretary on account ofhis liavino within the past four yearschampioned the civil chieftain of the!Southern Confederacy, on the floor1of the United States Senate.

It is broadly intimated that theSupreme Court is equally divided on

the issue of the prohibition cases

from Iowa, Kansas and (leomia, andthat the new Justice will have tocast the deeidimr vole it now

ri " ~

four to four nine l>oin<r a full bench.In 1 ho celebrated driven well case,

tlio Supreme Court lias recently rendereda decision against the pntontee,who claims a royalty of ten dollarseach on all the driven wells inthe I 'nited States.the number bo-jnnr estimated at three millions.

u'ho deficiencies for the transportationof the mails amounted to fromei^ht to fifteen million dollars perannum a few years since; but thosedeficits have been gradually reduceduntil they now are no more than a

million a year -so that by the endoi the present year the Postollico Departmentpromises to bo on a self-

sustaining basis.Assistant Commissioner of Patents
