Speaker Carlisle aud Mr. Mills i i uavo decided rot to call a meetiug of the house committee on rules * to j arrargt the order of business for the iv-n .imler of the session. Their j reason for taking this stand is the j tear that the pressure for the passage i of nolt measures as the dependent pension hill, would l>c greater than many of the democratic members could stand, it an attempt was made to arrange the order of business and j all of the leaders of the party are par- ! iicuiarly desirous that no legislation carrying extravagant appropriations shall pass the house this session. | Tais decision, which cuts out every- j thing that cannot get the unanimous consent of the House, and the regit- | I if appropriation hills, while some- j what hard upon many measures that ought to be passed, and would be, if j they could bo brought before the House, is nevertheless ft wise one. j The democrats are confident of re-j capturing tiic IIonso in 1800; they arc also confident t]iat the next Con- | gross will make many large and I ex'ravagunt appropriations, there- i fore a good and economical record | for the last democrrtic House will furnish the very best of arguments to go before tin?people to ask for the control of too House again. Kconomy and tariff reform will l e the demo- : ? oraiic watch word. Congress turned up just, as smi- | lingly on Wednesday as if many of its members were not suffering from the effects of over-eating, and shall I say it ??over - drinking. However, i much can be excused at this season 1 which at other times would call for ' censure. Congressmen are human. : ? ? ? ' j and Christmas comes but once a j year. Hoth If on see bad more than a j quorum at the.opening, and they went right to work, tho Senate on i the, tariff bill and tho honso on the ! Iiivcr and Harbor bill. The republican members of the ! Senate finance committee are having a picnic with the people who wish to J havo changes made in the Senate tariff bill before it is passed. Every! mail brings letters by the hnodred, i and there is a continual stream of . telegraph messengers pouring into I the comrnitte room. And as if that ! was not sufficient, tho already over- j protected mannfactnrer comes him- j self to speak Lis demands. One of theru has just handed in a memorandum of 1<> different articles that | he wishes the duties made higher on. ! il.-* says ho contributed largely to the republican campaign fund with' the distinct understanding that he I was to bo amply protected in this ; bill. The republicans have agreed j upon a number of amendments to j the bill, but they do not dare to j make them public until tho ve'ry^ast ! moment, for fear of the pressure that j will be immediately brought to boar ; upon them to make further changes. There is a littlo lull in the Pdaino ' war here this week, though a telegram : published a day or so ago, saying ; that Rluine had left lioino for this j city, created quite a hubbub until it j was learned to bo false. The nnti- | Riaino <'ongressmeu seem to be j weakening at a very rapid rate, per- j hfijf! that accounts for the reseat ion j of hostilities for the time being. Senator Iliscoek has gone to In- j diananolis in the interest of ex- j Senator I Matt, who rumor says is ! loosing ground with Harrison. Representative Springer lias in- ! trodneed a joint resolution providing ! for the admission of Arizona and 1 Idaho.

C., Jan. 5, 1889. Id replying lo Mr. "Forker," I ! heartily sanction all that be said in j regard to the Sunday-school celebra- i tion; bat in reference to one of the ! sociables, I beg to differ with him in : some of the occurrences thereabout, i It saems that Mr. "Forker" well j knows the party, or parties, who mu- i tilated the ladies' dresses in the man- j ner they were, but ah! there is where ; he made the mistake?that is what his communication lacks of being j complete, by not making mention of ! the persons, as there are so maoy, so many individuals of both sexes who would be very much pleased if this mystery was unraveled. I think j the matter was not at all trivial that j caused the insult, and that it was a J lady insulted instead of a gentleman. | I also think that society is getting j down to a very low ebb when persons j invite visitors to their house to insult them. I differ greatly with Mr. i "Forker" in regard to tbe party or > parties, who sliced up tbe ladies' j dresses so. Although I do not claim to know, but I have a very stroDg j idea, for I am not as well posted as Mr. "Forker," that it was some poor, empty-headed, deluded youths, who j have now, and who it is quite likely will always have, more brass than braiu6; and that the nature of the cutting implement was a barlow in- \ stead of a pen knife. Surely, in the j name of common sense, no visitor j would have gone to the sociable for j the purpose of converting the ladies' ! pretty dresses into strings, to disfigure them forever; for they were j too highly esteemed, and were not j oppressed in the least by the weight j of John-Barley-Corn, to be guilty of | such a misdemeanor. I venture to say at least, that the party or parties j were Lexingtonians by birth, and some too, who have not participated in the amusements of the Fork for j i the last twenty years. And again I ' beg to differ with Mr. "Forker," j where he says that John-Barley-Corn j reigned supremely there. It is very strange indeed if he took such a Rtronc stand that he was not dis o covered; nod unless Mr. "Forker" is , a very extraordinary genias, he must j certainly have been too heavily load- j ed with John-Barley-Corn when he (Mr. Forker) was at one place and j the sociable at another. Always on Hand, j Letter from Pine Hill. j Mn. Editor: As it was my pleas- j ure to spend one week at home dur- j ing the holidays, I will try to give j you a few dots of interest for the columns of the good old Dispatch. Oar young friend, Mr. W. B. Bast, who has been clerking for McCreery &. Bro., during several years past, was married to Miss Ellen Oliver, on the evening of last Christmas day. Many pleasures to him and his loving bride. Mr. J. L. Johnson of Washington, was home on- a visit during Christmas week. James is the same jovial fellow of by-goue-days, and everybody ; seemed truly glad to see his pleasant j face. Also, Miss Anna Johnson and ! Miss Carrie Bast, who have been at- ; tending school in Columbia, were j visiting relatives and friends. Christmas eve the people of Pine j Plains assembled around a Christ- j mas tree at the grand old academy. 1 Qnite a large and jovial audience was | addressed by that noble teacher Fitzgerald, the philanthropic Prof. W. H. j Sharps, and the Key. I. F. Smith, who | never tires of working for the spirit- i nal welfare of his conntry. Music j was furnished by that .beautiful and | kind-hearted young lady, Miss Ella ! Johnson. That well known and in- I i corrigibly ugly old fellow Santa Clans, j made his appearance and helped to i deliver the pretty gifts to the "little ! ones." After the tree was unladen of ! its burden, the pleasure-loving young j folks indulged in an old-fashioned j cake-walk. Thus the evening passed j away pleasantly to all. Miss Sallie Johnson who recently j graduated at the Greenville Female j College is teaching at the academy with a goodly number of pupils enrolled. Also, prayer meeting is held j at the academy every Sunday evening I at about 4 o'clock, Rev. I. E. Smith | officiating. We learn that Mr. Jas. ! V. Smith has a flourishing school at j Martin's mill. All unite iu saying "James is a good teacher." Everything around Pine Hill is as j quiet os usual, save the occasional re- ; ? f 4 lv A rv 'rt /vnn a r? /I t b n ' pun U1 ILlC ^jjuuamuu a oun IUO ^ I "bow-wow" of the faithful old hunt- j 1 ing dog.

The object of the meeting, I : 1 learned, was to discuss the matter of : I securing supplies and fertilizers for j ; the yeir and to formulate some plans, j ; A resolution looking to a concentra- | 1 lion of the trado of the members of ; ! I ! the Alliance was adopted, and ! j committees were appointed to consult ! the merchants at this place and i Prosperity. The idea seems to be to concentrate I the trade of tho members of the ! ! . i Alliance on that firm or merchant in 1 ! each place who wi'l givo the best j j bargains. A committee on fertilizers : was also appointed. Another I meetirg will be held at Prosperity ! on Saturday, the 10th when tho committees will report. I I > I A Card or Thanks. To my Parishioners and Friends:? By the lich blessings cf God we have lived another year. We now commence another, and it's duties are before ns. The old year just closed was freighted with many sorrows and trials for our community. Several dear, kind friends were called, by death, from the church militant to the church triumphant. Other calamities of a providential nature visited us, which appeared to retard the prosperity of the community, but which will, no doubt, work better for good.?especially to those who love God. Bat dear friends, amid all tho disasters you never forget your pastor. Ho feels that he still has a place in yor hearts. As the shadows of the old year were gathering around, the pastors heart was gladdened with many evidences of his peoples abiding love. Various articles of usefulness were brought to the pastor, and he believes these articles were cheerfully given. In addition to the articles for the family, the pastor's traveling outfit was re plenishcd by jour liberal hands. Besides these thisgR, he has received many expressions of love and esteem. These things, dear fiunds, .produce an indelible irrrf&ession upon Jbe pastor's heart. It is* not the value but the principal that does us good. And while it is admitted that here and there are individuals who are 1 i _ i i t i . il . opposea 10 snowing Kindness 10 ine poor preacher, who labors for the souls of all people, yet we are glad to know that in onr pastorate, our people are not so jealous hearted. Contrary wiso to such views, whatever our people have that is nice, it is divided with the pastor. TYe know not dear friends, should God spate our lives, how long this relation of pastor and people may continue. Duties to our family, our home and the church may soon call us away, but whenever and wherever we go, we will carry yon with us in our hearts and prayers. May God, the giver of all good, abundantly bless yon with the needful things of this life, and crown your heirs in His everlasting kingdom cf glory. Yours in the love of Christ, E. L. Lyuranp. - ?- ? Sittings from Turpentine Square. Mr. Editor: A fellow doesn't mind being henpecked some times, bnt when he becomes roosterpecked, I think it high time for him to begin to kick. I have been pecked by that clever "Itooster." And while his bill or beak has the power of penetrating glass, it also possesses the power of vaccinating all the silence and peace r\f n reivnnanAr pniTAUnnn^Bfif T'll admit, I am still teaching and fiddling in Turpentine Square, but while I^am enjoying that privilege, be i^fcflpfemgbing the xbofcjs of "Little nrown ?Tug," all over Turpentine Square and around a few circles. Though he is a clever rooster, because he never crows late at night or early in the morn to disturb the sweet repose of his own being. I saw a ''jewel" whisper softly in his ear jast the other night, and I fear now he will crow in his sleep. Our honorable citizen H. Vansant is a first rate economist. He has decided to await the expiration of H. C. B's term before he butchers. Sensible man? He has recently visited friends in "The Square" and naturally enough, he got stuck,? this being the nature of all Turpentine qnares.' This square is still holding its own and while the farmers are sustaining a heavy loss from the heavy rainfalls of last autumn they are cheerful with pluck and energy to give the river bottoms another tiinl. Turpentine business is somewhat on the decline as usual at this season of the year. Health is now good, though we have had several cases of typhoid fever. Snooks is awfully fat, but it has'nt broken out on him yet. His mustache is progressing (under the skin.) We have had a rather dull Christmas, as the cash is all in the U. S.
