TdThe observant visitor one of the most interesting exhibits of the Fair is to be found in the transportation building,Representing as it does tbo very great i»erfeCtiou of the means of rapid transit, both foi passengers and freight, and' without - which Chicago would have had no existence and the Fair itself a physical im possibility. From the earliest his tory of the human race to the l&th century there was practically no improvement in the methods of transportation, and it remained for the present century, and that too in the memory of some still living, to revolutionize and bring to a state of practical perfection the problem of rapid transit, which next to Un- invention of printing, has been the greatest boon, in a material way, and the most potent civilizer ol the human race. Just inside of the Sixty Third .Street entrance to the fait grounds stands the queer looking little loco motive, the Dewitt Clinton, vvhieli is the first one ever used in New York, [f it were mounted ou wagon wheels three or mules could easily pull it on an ordinary road. The passenger coaches are nothing more than the old-fashioned stage coaches mounted ou car wheels and marked for twelve passengers each. Thi train made its first trip iu 1837 and ran al the rate of ten or twelve miles an hour. On aa adjoining track stood the Turnout! locomotive UUU, belonging to the Hudson river and Central railroad, that had attained the marvellous speed of lli! miles au Lour. Close to this was a Wag ner palace ear.

The English and French exhibit some of their first-class locomotives, which are constructed eu au entirely different plan from those of our country, lacking the cowcatcher and the cub that are considered such es sential features iu the American lo comotive. The English first-class passenger cars arranged in compart ments and entered from the side, are marvels of splendid upholstering, but despite their elegance are far be hind the American curs in real com fort and Convenience. In road '.chicles, the French ex hibit, while smaller than some oth ers, was unquestionably the best, and contained the largest number of stylish caariagea, some of which were magaillcieutly upholstered and were very costly. This department contained everything from a bycicle to the ponderous two-story omnibuses that are used in the streets of Paris. To give an idea of the cost of some of the vehicles there was in the American exhibit, a hearse, the price of which was $12,000. In addi tion to the land vehicles there was an exhibition of boats from almost every country ou the globe. The catamaran oi' the Pacific islands stood in close proximity to tbe boats iu which the hardy navigators of voted entirely to a description of its con tents, especially when the fact, already mentioned, is considered that but for the improved methods in transportation, the Fair would never have been dreamed of*and thi- great city of Chicago wonlt hardly appear on the map of the&nntry.

HAPPENINGS AT THE FACTORY THIS WEEK. CONCERNING STOCK. SCHOOL BOOKS. the Fair. Her. T. P. Lide, of Barnwell, is Spending hi* vacation with relatives here. Ho is a pastor of two flour ishing churches in Barnwell county. He is a native and former resident of Darlington. Mr. Shipp Pegues, who is well known here, has been elected profes sor of ancient languages in the Southern University at Georgetown, Texas. He will leave in a few days lor his new field of labor. Mr. E. C. Rotholz, who left in June for a visit to Europe, arrived it home on Thursday morning aud •ays that he had a very enjoyable trip. He went to visit his mother Whom he had not seen for a good many years. A number of our citizens suffered * the km of some very fine ornamental trees that could not withstand the luryef tbe recent storm. Some va- tieties of ornamental trees are very Uttl^and easily suceumb to a severe gale. One of the large oaks iu front of Mr. W. G. Dickson’s residence, OH Pearl street was blown down. It was very old and had held out against •very storm previous to the late one. The large iwecfc gum tree in rear of Hmiiti elweh ww »]«t made of a stay law, aud no resolution to that effect introduced. It is very evident that tho Darlington county farmers have no idea of asking the Legislature to pass an act that will he ruinous to those whom it propos es to benefit. They will face the situation like the honest men that they are, aud not let the hard tcims prevent them from meeting their honest obligations. After the adjournment of the Al liance a public meeting was held to discuss the situation. Mr. W. II. Lawrence was the chairman of this •meeting. Those present were ad dressed by Air. E. Keith Dargan, President of the Peoples Bank of Darlington. Both of these gentle men assured the people that the fi nancial outlook was brightening every day and that they felt sure that there would be no trouble iu Iceland and Greenland brave the -errors of the Arctic ocean. There are models, p erfect in the smallest details, of the ocean gray hounds, as they are appropriately called, which travel at the rate of au ordinary passenger train, and makes the pas sage across in less than a week. The contrast between the models of these monster ships and thoie of the time of Golnmbns was, if .possible, greater tlnu that presented by the Dewitt Clinton, aud the brig My of the present day, and are perhaps a better illustration of human ingenu ity than is presented iu the improved methods of laud transportation, be ing not only a marvel of machinery, but also having to solve the prob lem of safety against wind aud wave. The imp •; ment in land transportation alone would not have sufficed to develop, iu such a short time, tho great resources of our country, had not the great steamers of the present day taken the place of the vessels that had to depend on the wind for their propulsion, for without those the people who wished to leave the overcrowded countries of Europe and seek homes in our new and undeveloped country, could out have secured the Young corn, from which so much was expected ou account of the einalluess of the old crop, lies fiat aud broken. Along the river banks aud bottom lauds freshets have covered or washed away the patient labor of our best citizens. Fruit trees are stripped of their fall crops. Fences, houses and hun dreds of acres of pine forests are ruined; herds of valuable stock and hundreds of human lives are the portion of the Storm King’s har vest. Not a section escaped, from Oconee county in the west to Horry county on the coast; from York iu the north to the most southern part of Beaufort. Teas and potatoes are the only crops not damaged. Some sections will have a partial recevery from the effects of tho storm and crops there will regain their strength, but will probably show a smaller yieh than is now expected. --.Cv-iMA.-tuta.iqjm hava to-he MiSli used. WHoFoTXBTf] A Little Bag of Gild Clin List by the Editor of “The Messenger.” Florence Messenger. Imagine your mortification should you retire to bed some night under the full impression that you bad in .your purse nearly enough of good hard cash to pay your ckpences on a trip to the World’s T mr and, on wak ing the next morning, find that you did not possess enough money to pay for a postage stamp. Such was the experience of the editor of this paper on Saturday night last. About the hour of 6 o’clock Saturday evening he hud in his pocket a little tobacco bug containing one tweuty-dollar gold piece and six or eight live-doilai- pieces of the same metal, which he had been keeping as a sort of nest- egg, aud which was all tho money he had. He retired Saturday night ful ly under the 'JMpression that the precious packing was still in his pocket, whfre Jre had carried it for several weeks. But on Sunday, to his dimay, he discovered that it was missing. Dilligent search was made, but to no purpose. Nothing has been seen either of the little bag or its glittering contents since the hour above mentioned. It was evidently drawn from the pocket in which it had been placed by getting entangled iu a bunch of keys which arc fre quently used, aud c pped unnotic ed.

Farmers Should Accumulate Prop erty Other than Laud. 1 u these days when the dollar is skittish and prone to seek the cool sevuc-stered nooks of hank and safe deposit vaults, we the people are im pressed with what a dear delightful In some respects it is surpassed with personal appearance by cash, of the hot and spot varieties, but the fact lingers that for a boon companion to ahum with, in season and out, at home and abroad, credit is altogether agreeable. Credit does uqft inhabit the South ern States in flocks. It is a rare bird. It settles here, once in a while there, hut as a general thiug it dwells in Northern latitudes. There is no reason in the nature of things why credit sliquld not be found iu large quantities iu these parts but the explination of its absence is plain. Credit does not thrive where there isn’t plenty of collateral and that’s what’s the matter with the Hannah,s in Dixie. The capitalistic chappies in the North despise to lend money ou land and they don’t do it. It takes tinu to sell land, it is troublesome to dis pose of, it can’t be handled fast. It is too uuyiekly a lever to attempt to raise money with except with ‘"great deliberation.” Land ow nership has *' been a curious, and perplexing thing since Adam’s title to that hundso.me place of real estate betwixt t he Tigris and Euphrates becomes clouded.

Our people are rich in land. The Advertiser beleives that the time is coming when land will pass by as signment just as does building and loan or railroad or other stock and that titles bill be misversally cleaved.

Columbia Journal The b juks to be used by the pub lic schools of the State for the next live years have been adopted. There is but little change in the old list, as will be seen by u perusal of the list published below. The State Board of Examiners were in session iu the Senate cham ber all day yesterday and far into the night. Tbeir session was long but their work effective. They discussed the plan of school book depositories as advocated by Fresident Craighead and gave it consideration in tbe light of conn- ciljof the County School Commis sioners who were here in consulta tion with them on that matter and upon the advisability of changes in the list of books for the schools. After mature deliberation on the plan of Frofessor Craighead and another presented by Superintendent oi Education Alayfleld, the board adopted the latter. The plan as adopted provides for the sale of books as heretofore, by dealers, with the exception that they are to enter reement with the board to sell them at a fixed per cent increase upon the publisher’s price. The rate of per ceutagc has not been agreed upon aud will not be until the next meeting of the board in October, utter which it will be an nounced. The board considered the wishes us well as the financial condition of the people in the matter of selecting the list oi books for the schools, for they made very slight changes in tbe list aa it has existed for the past live years. I his was largely due to the opinions oi the County School Commissioners. They were gener ally satisfied with the books now in use ami advised against general changes. The only absolute change was in grammar. Reid it Kellogg’s gram- mum were disc aided in iavor oi iarbell’s Docks arc cheaper than those oi Reid & Kellogg, which will make up i«;r any increased expense in the purchase oi the new books. After consenting to give out for publication the list of books adopted, Superintendent Alaytieid found it impossible to get the list in correct shape up to the hour of the Jour nal's going to press. The minutes, however, show the following points on the series as auopted for gederal use: Webster’s dictionary was adopted as the standard and Worcester's is to lie permitted for use iu those counties now using it if they so de sire.

Hundreds oi farmers do save money and make in vestments but the notion among them is that there is nothing to 1 uy except land.
