G. CLINKSCALES. Mr. CIinkscales, quonda plough boy, and now a noted i structor at Wofford College lool as if he were born in ante bellu: days. There is something in pressive about his head. TI forehead is high denotinog intE lectuality and at the base it rItuberant indicating great ne centive powers. His nose nether Greek nor Romian.' it altogether Scotch-Irish, for tips uo to Ben Lomond ar sreads down to th?e Blarne: stne here are moments wn( th e eyes look oo nesace, as of compu:oryeacatio~n. anac ''oIa b clothed: :n 1. 6 -wearv'g rea s ab too large, trousers i wvouk i scorn' a pressinglub, an ashnough at the 'urgent reques cf his friends he has discarde the old time brogans, he has ne er vet been induced to eneas his'feet in tan shoes.

He can tell an ane dote to perfectio:. ani fe e equal him as an nmromt4u se er or debater on publie que tions of State. You then, h hearmng him,. will forget allabo his impossible clothes, and yo will think only of the speake himself who interests you the as the perfect incarnation of ir tellect. The address over he take his seat, crosses his legs, fold his hands, and his face again as sumes the gloom we feel c reading the ode on the burialc John Moore. Unlike many< the others Mr. Clinkscales has caus to espouse in the camnaig I CNBBAESFOR COE :R - and his lisinterestedness makes im in a way formidable. He is always named as one of the Big _our of possibilities in any con-'L ti rsation, to R. A. COOPER. tr 'r. Cooper is at present soli- S eitor of the 8th Circuit, looks a : like a daguereotype of Edgar bi e! Alen Poe, but does not part his n ",air in the middle. In truth, he ;as a mass of unruly black hair, e th i-at frightens even the sharp P( teeth of a stable horse curry M.

Yet in courage this is the Danton of the present revolution.. He has grey n earnest eves of truth and sincer 1- ity, expression of purpose which :s is not contradicted by a stiff, im n nasto chin. In seeing his gener i- *al get up you will affirm at once ie that he could not be seduced C l- from a nrincile he believed in b< is for monev, ;referment. flattery, T r or any other earthly considera- p 3s tion.

A great writer has said: that there is something effemin- he ate in the structure and organi zation of all great men, and it is p tr'ue. We see it in the noble fi delty of Lee, in the sympathy of h Lincoln, in the quick intuition of a Woodrow WVilson, and in the al- 1 most motherly love of Richards for the producing class of peo- h pe. But the Major does not b Ihave the appearance of a beauti- b fuil woman by a jug full. Look 'i >g at him from behind, he is 0 just tolerable. His front view h is grotesque and droll, a startling criosity shop. The appertures s of the eyes. the ears, and the ac .mouthi make you think of a col- es ander. His face sets all the laws of anatomy at defiance, o ibone and cartilagenous tissue ap pear, disappear and reappear in .5 unaccountable confusion. A bove is ~the countenance the nose rises: sout of it like a monolith above ay splane. it was this sort of a nose - that Cervantes must surely have :described somewhere, which de nte5 an inborn enthusiasm for a: all great things. recks not its e SCommnTE N PAGE THREE n New Grain Uang Urgalzel. - About si.: eeks ago County Commissioners decide to organize an extra chai gang.
