There is a boat of men who boast Of powder, cotton, steam ; Botovery hour the mighty power Of printer's ink is seen. It moves thc world as easily As doe3 some mighty thing, And men proclaim in despots' ears That printer's ink is king ! Tho man of gold, of wealth untold, Printer's ink may scorn, Or knit his brow, nor dfcign to bow To one so lowly born ; But printer's ink has built its throne Whore minds their tributes bring, And God's most gifted intellects Shout printer's ink is king ! King of the world of thought refined, No abject slave it claims ; >' Where superstition's victims pine, It bursts their servile chains. In every clime, in coming years, s Will mon proud anthems sing, And round the world the echoes float, That printer's ink is king ! Sam Jones' Tent. Cloth to Cover Five Thousand People to be Spread on Greene Street?? Preparing Tor the National Holiness Campmcetrng. Augusta Evening News. The. Sam Jones tent will be brought to Augusta in a few weeks and spread in the vacant lot in front of St. John's Methodist Church for the great Octo ber meeting. This tent will hold five thousand people, and its dimensions are 100 by ISO feet. It will be floored and filled with seats, and the tent itself is wa ter-proof. Sam Jones says he never knew rain to interfere with religion, and he has preached to as big crowds under that tent in the rain as when the sun was shining. The tent was constructed while he conducted the big Nashville revival, and he is now using it at his old home in Carter ville. This tent will be used for the Na tional Holiness Camp Meeting, which will open in Augusta on the 3d of October, and remain in session ten days and perhaps longer People will come from all over the Union, and the preparations are about complete for the session. Visitors will pay their way, and all who will take boarders during the meeting should leave their names at Pendleton's book store, it is utterly impossible for th? hotels to accommodate the crowd for there will be several thousand visitors. It is hoped, therefore, by those in charge of the meeting, that all citizens and housekeepers who aro willing to board visitors for a few days will make the fact known. The great tent will be centrally lo caled near St. John's church, in which thoKe?who cannot get i;eat^, can ad journ for special services. The tent itself is too large br the space in the vacant lot, and will extend out in the street about fifty feet or to the park. Tho authorities have granted this permission, and the immens- nff-iir and the coming to the city will ba the centre ol interest in the early days of October. Pensioas? South Carolina has never we think been accused of the proverbial in gratitude of Republics. But it seems to us she might with Borne show of truth be accused of a degree of negli gence in that she has not made pro visions for the care of her disabled and maimed Confederate soldiers. It is true that the number is not very large of this ciass, who cannot obtain a livelihood of some sort in this favor ed country. It is true also, that within a few years the political condi tion of the State made it out of the question, to do more than save the State from the clutches of the thieves and vandals that then had her in con trol. It is furthermore true, that not until quite recently has the State been in a financial condition to warrant her in assuming the burden of a pen sion list. But there is no doubt now of her prosperity. Our observations confirm the report ot the statistics that the State ?B on the high road ot prosperity. Daily we eee some veteran of the war with an empty sleeve, or a wood en leg, or who is suffering from the effects of exposure and wounds, and we are impressed with the fact that the State that called upon them fer, and accepted their aid in her hour of need, should not forget nor neglect them in her day oi prosperity and plenty. The widows and orphans of dead Confederate soldiers need help that they cannot and will not ask for. Surely the State will come to their aid. She owes it to those who gave their lives and limbs in her defense - Abbeville Messenger. Such speeches as that of Senator Sherman a few days ago cannot do any harm when the antidote of truth is piomptly applied by newspapers of his own section. Senator Sherman labored very hard to 'convince the people of Ohio that the colored peo ple in the South are denied the right to vote, but the Springfield Republi can reminds him that in the eleven States which seceded, Mr. Blaine re ceived 775,000 votes, against Mr. Cleveland's 1,040,000. "There was probably some suppression or intimi dation of the colored vote in South Carolina and Mississippi," says the Republican, "but elsewhere the South never had a fairer election," and Mr. Cleveland "could have spared both those States and still have been elect ed." So it is-as the Republican says -"false and wicked to charge that he owes his election to crime or climes."-News and Courier. The tenacity with which people abide by their eariy faith in Ayer's Sarsa parilla can only be explained by 'ho J'act that it is the best blood medi cine ever used, and is not approached in excellence by any new candidate for public favor. The time when it is lawful to shoot partridges and other game birds be gins the I'd of October. Prohibition and tbe President CINCINNATI, September 14-Tl Prohibitionists are making this ye the strongest canvass that they ha' ever managed in Ohio. Dr. Leonar their candidate for Governor, has ai dressed some very large meeting The main point of his speeches is thi prohibition is the foremost issue : American politics, that it is to deatrc one of the two great parties by al sorbing the best men in both, of thei and that the consequence will be tl breaking up of the solid South. Th is in harmony with the private coi versation of the leading Prohibitioi ists here, who express the belief thi the South ia ripe for just fuch amovt ment, and who have even gone so fi as to name Colquitt of Georgia i their probable next candidate fe President.

What about the boy who does no take up with a trade or profession Look aronnd jon. the question ic speedily answered. He must cast hi hook into any sort of pond, and tak such fish as may be easily c.-ght. Hi is a sort of tramp. He may work ii a brick-yard to-day and in the har vest field to morrow. He does thi drudgery and gets the pay of thi drudge. His wages are so small thai he finds it impossible to lay up a dot lar, and a fortnight of idleness wil see him dead broke. And now,'my boy, if men tell yoe that the trades are crowded, And that so many carpenters, and blacksmiths and painters, and shoemakers, and other trades keep wages down, pa j no attention to such talk, ?jj Compare the wages of common and skilled workmen. Take the trade which you seem fitted for. Begin with a deter mination to learn it thoroughly, and to become the best workman in the shop. Don't be satisfied to skin along from one week to another without be in-i discharged, but mako year ser vices valuable by being such a thor? ough workman that your employer cannot afford to let you go. The New Postal Card, which will be furnished to all the postoffices in a few days, is to be a model of neat ness in style and quality. Nearly all the poa to ffi ces in the country have their supply of cards exhausted, and it will not bo long before the old post al card, so to speak, will be a dead letter. The cards should have been in the hands of the postmasters some time ago, but their appearance has been delayed by the failure of the company which had the contract for their manufacture to get them out as per agreement. The paper in the new cards is much superior in quality, texture and finish to that in the old card s, and in color is a light cream. The design, printed in dark brown, is as follows : On the upper right hand corner of the card, in an oval frame, is the head of Thomas Jefferson. The face of the vignette is three quarters full, looking to the left, and is sur rounded by a wreath of laurel and oak, tied with a ribbon bearing the words, " One Cent" and the number " 1." On the left, at the top of the card, are the words, " United States Postal Card," the words, "United States" being in plain white letters on a curved and partly folded scroll, and the words " Postal Card" being in dark, ornamental letters, enclosed in straight, unshaded linee, with a rosette at each end. Immediately under the scroll is a small white star, below which is a long tablet contain ing thirteen stars. Below the whole design are the words, " Nothing but the address to be written on this fide." The total cotton crop of the United States for last season was 5,669,021 bales; exports 3,639,945; spinners' takings 1,685,689 of which 266,000 bales were kept south. Stock on hand 129,539.

Four Colored People Give Up The Liven Because of n Conjuror. HKNDERSONVILLE, N. 0. Sept. 8. At Brevard lived Henry MoCorkl colored, with his wife and four chi dren, aged respectively, nine, seve five and two years. Three or foi days ago a colored woman name Carver came there, saying she was Voodoo doctrees. They gave hi shelter and she remained there nnt yesterday when she and Mc Cork became involved in a quarrel and 1 ordered her to leave the house. St left in a rage, saying she would coi jare the whole family. This frightei ed McCorkle, who offered to let he come back again, but she refused. St went to a stream near by and gathe ed some mod which she made into ball, placed in it several hairs froi ber head and six crooked pins. Sb then returned to McCorkle's housi and after pronouncing some gibberis she fell on her knees and threw th "conjure ball" against the door c the house, where it adhered. Mc Corkle waa half crazed with fear an begged the woman to remove th "conjure ball," but aha refused am left the place. In a few hours McCorkle complain ed of feeling ill, and soon afterward bia wife waa compelled to take he bed. Before nightfall all the childrei were ill and complained of griping paine in the back and stomach. 1 neighbor who happened to be pass ing came to Hendereonville and se cured the aervicea of two physician who repaired to the spot. They founc McCorkle dead and his wife dying and before assistance could be render ed she was dead. Emetics were ad ministered to the children, the phy eicians suspecting poison. Two chit dren died before midnight. The othei two recovered. An autopsy reveali that no trace of poison could be found Local Option in Georgia. The llesult Achieved by a Long Prohi bition Campaign. ATLANTA, GA., September 10. The Local Option bill has been pass ed by the House as it came from the Senate, and is now a law. The bill provides that upon the application foi prohibition signed by one tenth of thc voters in any County, the Ordinary shall hold an election to determine whether or not spirituous liquors shall be sold in that County. All per?ons qualified to vote for member* of the General Assembly are qualified to vote in this election. The ticket* shall be written " For Sile" and " Against Sale." If the result of the election should be against the sale the Ordinary shall give notice once a week for four weeks and the Act shall take effdct as soon as the re suit is ascertained, [except as to the vested rights of persons whose an nual license has not expired. If the result of the election should bc for sale," no other election on the question shall be held in that Com ty within less than two years. When any County goes " against the sale' ' no person shall sell or barter, direct ly or indirectly, or give away at his place of business, or furnish ut any other public place, any alcoholic, spir ituous, or malt liquors, or any other drinks which produce intoxication. Nothing in the bill is to prevent the manufacture, sale and use of domes tic wines or cider, or the sale of wines for sacramental purposes, provided they are not sold by bar rooms at re tail. Licensed druggists will not be pre vented from sellingor furnishing pure alcohol for medicinal or scientific pur poses. No election can be held in any place where the sale of spirituous liquors is directly prohibited either by high license, local option, or other legislation, so long as these local laws remain in force. This is the Local Option bill, which represents the climax'of a long prohibition campaign. It is probable that under its provi sions nearly 100 elections will be held in this State between now and the end of the year. The Rev. S. A. Gary, of Pickers county, certainly did some good work during the months of July and Au gust for the church, the Baptist.

B, Tho farmer ie now hunting arotfnd to buy seed oata, seed barley, seed wheat and everything else he needs to put into the ground. This ib a pretty state of a/fairs for a comtdo nilv that pretends to have farmersjas the dominant and controlling element and who pay the taxes and run things generally. We have a good climi te and soil. Labor is all that is needed but it must be wisely directed. T ie owner of the land must take chaf of it. Ile cannot afford to let a^ ant with a lean ox take the- MB mont of his affairs. He ra ns tr hand aud must have a small arnot of common sense. Farming is the best and surest ca? ing. The man who follows it is nev| in danger of starving. He can ways have something to eat)and eom<i thing to clothe himself and fam.ilj He can have it with light work ai small expense. A good living ia a dead sure thing. But the farmers of the country wi?l not write on anything '.intended for their good. They will find fault a?d split up into adverse factions.without the slightest excuse. If one han found out how to save money by a new way of ploughing he would not tell another the secret for all the world. In many other like instances^ they are secretive and do not commu nicate to each other matters of the most vital importance to the prosper ity and success of the occupation. All other occupations have leagued, | unions and associations but the farm? ers will have none of it unless it is a kind of secret organiz ition like the1 Grange which made more money for the man who got it up than for every j man, woman and child who was ad mitted to it. The inspiration of the thing was wrong. In fact it was an attempt to j kill out the merchants by force and arms as if they wore all a thieving, op pressive and unconscionable set. No J man made anything out of the Grange j except to get an insignificant office and wear a brown linen apron at a country barbecue. Of conrse the farmers furnished the barbecue and were at. the expense. Tbe town crowd and the boys and girls from lite coun try had the fun and profit. Tho farm ers didn't get their goodsany cheaper and went on in the same old wav raising cotton and buying everything needed. Things will be no better however until the farmers take things into their own hamln. AB long as they come to town and allow three or four lawyers to conduct their meetings they will never be any better than th ty are now.-Abbeville Medium.. Son I h Carolina's Cotton Crop. We insist upon lt, notwithstanding the natural demoralise it ion amon^ our planters, that South Carolina wil make 700,000 bales of 400 pound? weight thia year. We reach these figures by a system of averages from period to period, which will be found far more reliable than this or that man's demoralized view of things. South Carolinanear-^ ly always undervalues her crop in her estimates, whilst Georgia overvalues hen. This crop in South Carolina would call for something over 7,000,000 bales of 400 pounds for the country. Such a crop ought to command good fair prices, with anything like a reaeona ble revival of buainess. It positive ly does no good to understate the crop. The result is always a veiy hurtful revulsion as the honest truth comes to light. And there are too many people watching the facts to escape the truth of things long - Register. < It Made a Difference.

Yet this is the present system. To change it means the risk of a demagogic cry of one school for the rich and ano!hur for the poor. Accordingly, the poor suffer.

Toe Treasurer of the State informed a reporter of the Register a few days ago that there is now in the Treasuty, after paying all the interest up to date, a cash balance of over $150,000. This is certainly a most gratifying in dication of the financial solidity of Smth Carolina. The corn yield is estimated at 2, 000,000,000 bushels, worth $400 000, 000. The Trilrune says that "last year, with uuusually l*rgn crop**, the Bureau estimate of thu value to pio ducerB was about $255.000,000 for cotton, $330,000,000 for wheat. ai.d $010,000,000 lor corn."
