East and West, ?be great cuise of temperante is making Nteady pn>g???.s-in ino form of prohibi tion in atMne.Staie?,hiKb> license in some, and local oplion in other.*. And we are glr.d to say thatthor?piscopal Church of America is QgKtinf ?hfjgorul 'fight with uplifted armband dauntless crest. The Triennial Conveution of the said Church 5s now in session in Philadelphia; and the mother church in England is repre sented by tho Lord Bishop of Rochester, one of the most distinguished prelates of all Great Britain. In answering the address of?welcomo. tendered him by the Conveoilojb; tho Bishop of Rochester conclndedMn these significant words: M We may have as many free churches as "sro please, we may open as many free libraries as we pl&oso, but as long as the demon pf intemperance haunts our homes.' Qhjitrohes will be useless, ser mons wi ll'b? useless, and the efforts of laymen useless. At St. Louis recently he hoard some of the best speiaing he bad ever heard in his life. A man got up at that meetintr stating that all tho ravages of rim. civil war. ?fcc , were pot equal to tho evil caused by intemperance. " If vuju wamvto earn the eternal grati tude o?$?e masses von will use your en ergies and prayers in this battle-agaima iutemperancH. What he desired and hoped to see was a thorouchlv organized avstem of temperance. If the Episcopal Church of America will throw herself into the strife the blessing of God will be with her. In conclusion, he said that the deputies bad his best and rnnst pro found wishT* for the success of the Epis copal Church. May God aid them, he said, in an unwearied and indefatigable effort to evangelize the masses." In tho meantime the temperance or ganizations aro gathering all they can into their respective folds. A few years ago a numberof genlh raenof New York City, desirous of promoting temperance, conceived the idea of what might be called graded pledges, to suit the differ ent classes with whom they might come m contact. Their plan met with success from the start, and in a little while thou sands of persons, embracing a'l classes of people, were enrolled on their books. Aud now the Womau's Christian Tem perance Union, of Greenville, in our own State, have adopted the samo idea in the following series, of pledges, which they are now circulating for signers among the people of that city and vicinity : Pledge, No. 1.-I herein solemnly promise to abstain from the use of ail intoxicating liquors an a beverage. Pl od ire. No. 2.-I herein pl od ge my word of honor that I will not drink al coholic beverages in-any public place, or social gathering, where my example would induce others to drink. Pledge, Ko. 3.-I herein pledge my word of honor that I will not use wine or any alcoholic beverage on my table. Anti-treat Pledge, No. 4-1 herein promise on my word of honor not to in vite others to drink, nor to drink with others on their invitation, nor to pay for such drinks at any public place or club. Membership Pledge, No. 5-1 herein solemnly promise, God helping me, to abstaiuitonvall distilled, feimented and mait liquors, mending wiue aud cider, and to employ all proper means to dis courage the use of, and traffic in the same While all of these pledges are good, as our brave and able cotemporary, tho Charlotte Journal-Observer well says the fourth is worthy of special attention,' for if generally adopted, it would put an end to the habit of treating so common in this conn try, and from which so much confirmed dissipation has followed. It would practically put an end to the bai room. There are thousands of yoting -HfeTirn nearly every ci?y of America to day who drink liquor more or leps t>; excess who took their first drink of li quor as a treat. Asido from its baneful results it is a senseless custom, which has found favor in no country but this we mean tho custom of promiscuous treating? standing up at a bar, hastily swallowing eenie fiery liquid, and within a few minutes repeating, not because th? drinkers want it, but because eacfc wishes to reciprocate the courtesy ex tended by the other, simply because h( dreads being considered penurious it failing to treat after having accepted ar invitation; to drink. Many a man ha! gone into a bar room svber to take on? drinjc and staggered c ut drunk with ? doz?^under his shir"- The successful propagation of this pleine will do mor? effective work for the cau.^e of temper anco thar* prohibition, local option anc all the other pledges combined. Rake In the Poll Tax Closely and Conscientiously* We call the attei.tion'of our Treasure and our people to tue following poi tioi of an A?t entitled "An Act to raise sup plies and make appropriations for th fiscal year commencing November Isl 1SS2," : " SECTION 1. (Extract). 0 * 9 r> Sboulj any person fail or refuse tp pay caid po) tax, ne shall be guilty of a misdemean or, and, on conviction thereor before an; Trial Justice or other Court having ju risdiction of the same, sb:;ll be punishe by a fine, which shall not exceed ?10, tc gether with the costs of said suit; or b imprisonmert in the County jail for period not exceeding thirty days." The poll taxis avery important pal of the school fund, and it is of the u most moment that it should be closel and conscientiously collected. We bot that it will be collected without difficu ty, and without any penalty attacbiu] At the same time, if there should be large list of delinquents, the purposes i which the polls are, applied aro cf ti great imp?t tance to permit of any fai ure to enforce the law. There are ov< seven thousand voters in Edgefield com ty ; and s??e? the registration law h: been in operation a great many parti who have heretofore escaped notice ha^ been placed on the list. Consequent no one who has voted need hope that 1 will be permitted to exercise the lia chise, and at the same time throw on ot er people all the burden of taxation. Mayor Courtney in Edgefield. Mayor Courtney, of Charleston, who wise, noble nnd patriotic administratii of tho municipal affairs of tho ancie city, entitles him to be considered proudly representative son of the Pi metto State, spent a day and night Edgefield last week, as the guest of M: PickensaiEdgewood. Indeed Mr. Con ney, who ia Treasurer of the Mt. Vern fund, came to Edgefield for the expn purpose of conferring with Mrs. Pic ens, as Vice-Regent for South Carolit in regard to the future status of Sou Carolina's room at Mt. Vernon-the < dining room of George Washington. N Courtney's large heart is no less in tl patriotic-historical work than that of t noble and devoted Vice-Regent, wi like a lofty chatelaine of the feudal ag so earnestly strives to keep bright i only the history but tho tone and chi airy of preuder days. When May Courtney, of Charleston, holds up I hands of the widow of Francia W. Pit en* in this high cr.use. we may wella sider South Carolina as already rang side by side with the very proudest the ancient home of .? the Father of 1 Cou ntrv." _ Subscribe to the ADVERTISES.

STATK OF SOI:TU PAROLINA, 1 EDEFIELD COUNTY. | To the Hon. A. P. Aldrich, Presiding Judge for the October Term of Court, im We the Grand Jurors of Edgefield County beg permission to make the fol lowing Report: That we have again inspected the Pub lic Offices and the Public Buildings of . our County. We found the Court House iu good condition, except some repairs needed in the Jury rooms and in the Judge's retiring room. The Jail is a model of cleanliness and neatness ; and In excellent repair, with the exception of the windows which need many pane.? of glass. We found no bedding on hand, and would recommend that the County Commissioners purchase a supply at once. We have looked into the School Com missioner's Books, and found thom very well kept, and quite accurate in so far as we had leisure to verify his calcula tions by investigating quite a number of pages taken at random. We found also that duplicates of Pay Certificates iasued to Teachers correspond with the records in said Books. We found the Sheriffs Office in good order. The following moneys were found in his office : Edward Lynch vs. M. H. Eich elberger, $750. IS J. M. Sullivan et al. vs. W. M. Thomas et al. $1159 55 At the Poor House we found thirteen inmates-six whites and seven colored Tho recommendations made at the June Term are being carried out. The prem ises are in good order-clean and neat. Among said inmates, we found a female child about ten years old. We recom mend that this girl be sent to the State Orphan Asylum, as we do not think a County Poor House a proper place for children of this age. We find the Office of the Judge of Pro bate, as heretofore, in good order, and no irregularities. We find the Clerk's Office in excellent condition. The following moneys are on hand here: O. F. Cheathani, Ad'or., Plaintiff, VS. Wm. Retalie. Pr. To ain't received from sale of De fendant's land, Sept. 18,1883, ?70.27 CT. By am't paid cost, $47.10 Bal on hand due estate, $23.17 The State vs* Thos. E. Deas. Am't on hand in aoove case, $250.00 Some repairs aie needed to the win dows of this Office. From the Office of County Treasurer and of County Auditor, there is no im portant inlormation in. addition to what has already been laid before the public. Our Auditor's labors for 1883 will be complete some day this week. We have examined the records of the County Commissioners and approved of them with this exception : Tn their min* uies, we find a contract for lumber and building a bridge on a road which is not a public highway. It has been called to the attention of this Grand Jury that certain roads in the western part of the county have not been worked in three years There are certain bridges on thu, Cambridge rop?A *?e*r Edgefl.el.tl_ Qmtrt Hou.se, wherv*'several accident? faav? re cently happened. Over cuts and branches we recommend that lumber iustead of poles be used. Wo again call the Com missioners' attention to our previous recommendation that a Book of Record be kept in their Office for complaints as to roads and bridges. The County Commissioners have fur nished the mileage of public roads in the County, except Wise and Blocker Townships. Total number of miles 818, number of bridges, 39, and one ferry? Our people have been trying, for hun dreds of years, to destroy the shady woods overspreading the landscapes, and now they begin to wonder why the dry weather prevails more and moro each succeeding ten years. By transplanting some millions of trees where forests and rains bad heretofore been unknown, the Egyptians have succeeded in bringing down upon their thirsty fields frequent and refreshing showers. Lot every stream In our State be lined with trees, and then the neighboring vales and hills, by reason of regular rains, will yield exuberant crops as in the days of yore. We recommend that a stringent law be passed for the protection and increase of our timber. The traffic in seed cotton, from thc knowledge of this Grand Jury, being ol such extent and injurious to the interest and morals of our community, that wt would respectfully suggest that, a law being now of force, allowing local Coun ty option restricting tho sale of spiritn ons liquors, we request the members t< the Legislature from this county, to usi their best efforts to enact a local eptioi law allowing this county to vote up i making the selling of seed cotton a fel ony, and the buyer an accessory after th fact. We recommend that the Bond in th caso of Thomas E. Deas be forfeited an the money be ordered placed in th hands of the County Treasurer, Dea not having appeared at the two terms r the. Court. A true bill having been found by thi Grand Jury, the Prosecutor having set tied tho case on the payment of $15.0( the costs having been taxed before thi Grand Jury, amount to $7.80. The rt mainder being left in the hands of th Prosecutor and still in his hands. ] this within the Statutes, and ii so, whi disposition should be made with the r< mainder? We respectfully request hi Honor, the Judge, to inform us whethe or not after a trne bill has been fount cases can be settled by consent and tl Prosecutor receive any money otho than the actual cost in the case. Custoi seems to have sanctioned it, but it liable to abuse. To the Presiding Judge, BS well as tl Solicitor and the other officers of tl Court, we desire to express our appro' ation for courtesies and uniform kine ness. Respectfully submitted, EDGAR L.
