Cash thinks it is a dreadful condition of affairs when a gentleman can't ] sI?oot a policeman without interference. Wm. H. Vandbrbilt is reported as Saying that he is worth about $200,-, 000,000, and that his income is $12,000,000 a year. i Bogan Cash, hereafter to be softened down to Bogie, will become the great bng-a-boo of the children of Chesterfield county. The Augnsta Chronicle says: "The Atlanta Constitution says that Cash conld carry South Carolina." Almost """ any State could be carried by cash. aa The trouble in the Soudan seems to | have originated out of the efforts upon the part of Egypt to suppress the slave traffic, which was largely carried on,1 and was the chief source of income to some of the Sheiks. General Gordon has acknowledged that his peace mission in the Soudan is a failure, and that the only thing now to do is to crush El Mahdi by force. Prompt and vigorous action is uecessary. The newspapers say that Mrs. Blaine and Logan appear to be doing most of - the work for the Presidential prize this year. Nothing like having a shrewd wife to manage for you in politics or otherwise. General Roger A. Pryor is confident that Samuel J. Tilden will receive the Democratic nomination for President, and that he will accept. He jhi'nt-o Blaine and Lincoln the strongesFtwfcit the Republicans can nominate. The Atlanta Constitution is falling into line for Samuel J. Tilden, and thinks that "nothing was ever plainer in our politics than that the hope of Democratic success in the coming cam- j paign rests mainly with Samuel ?J. Tilden." It looks as if the S. J. T. boom was taking a fresh start. This remains of Ah Sam, the Chinese cook of the Jeannette, which were brought from the mouth of the Lena river, a distance of 15,000 miles to the city of New York, will be sent to China, another 13,000 miles' journey. This is the most extensive traveling in which we have ever heard of a corpse figuring. Mr. Herbert Spencer, having been asked to stand as a liberal candidate ? for member of Parliament for Leicester. wiltca dcclhxrnjr to abandon his r^-"? work for a political career. He says he could not agree to be merely a delejfate voting as desired by his constituents, but should always act upon his own judgment, so that there wonld be a continual antagonism between himself and his constituents. The prohibition sentiment is making remarkable headway in the rural sec" tions of Georgia. Last week Whitfield f and Cobb counties voted in favor of prohibition by more than two to one. It was also noticeable that in both counties the colored voters went almost unanimously for prohibition. The At' lanta Constitution says that within a year it is doubtful if liquor will be , sold in Georgia outside of Chatham, Bibb, Richmond, Fulton, Muscogee and Clarke. The Newberry Observersays of the Cash-Ri shards homicide: "There is no sense or justice in trying to make tms ease different from other homicides. If Bogan Cash killed Richards without provocation he is guilty of murdernot because he is a Cash, but because that is the law of the State. If he killed Richards in self-defense he. is not guilty of murder?even though he is a Cash, and no matter what else he may have done. Whether he is guilty or not guilty is a question for the jury alone?ia his case as in all ofher cases." tn the late leoa! tender decision of the Supreme Court, the Philadelphia Record remarks: *'From this time forth it behooves the citizens of the United States who have a stake in the country to see to it that they send no more scalawags to Congress. - The decision of the Supreme Court leaves every property owner and every , creditor afc the mercy of the majority in Congress and the President. They may at any time make pieces of paper ^ a legal tender for debts. The security ^ of constitutional restraint has been rudely torn away, and the government % is clothed with the power to do a thing which is not consonant with justice nor reconcilable with morality." No other civilized country can show so fine a navy as can the United States if attention is confined to the officers alone. The official personnel of the navy now consists of 1,562 officers of various grades, running from admiral of the navy down to naval cadets. This number is sufficient to meet the wants of seventy vessels, but as the country has only thirty-one ships in commission the demand for officers is not equal to the supply. Were they all attached to the ships now in commission there would be fifty officers for each vessel, or one officer to every five seamen. The fighting capacity of such a force can hardly be estimated with any degree of accuracy, but it will be safe to say that the naval establishment of no other nation could make anything like the same showing. The report of the Senate committee which was appointed to arrange terms with the Sioux Indians of Dakota for a cession of a part of their reservation is not conclnsive and may give rise to complications. The facts are easily given: The Sioux are possessed of about thirty thousand square miles in /v Vi I the southwestern part of Dakota. A railroad had obtained the right of way i through this reservation, but declined to build Hiiless it was sure that the territory on either side would soon be thrown open to settlement. Hence the agitation which has been pending so long. The government began r?A<mti*iHoiis for a cession of more than one-half of the reservation, but the forms required by a treaty made with the Indians in 18G8 had not been properly fulfilled, three-fourths of the male members of the tribe not having signed the agreement to yield the land. There were reports of fraud, and it was said that in order to make up the necessary number 3*oung children were induced ' ~ -* J1 ?i. hn_ 10 si2"n me agreement. ing brought to the notice of Congress, a committee of investigation was appointed, and this committee has jnst reported that new negotiations most be made with the Indians. It is now proposed to take about ten millions acres, paying for them in' cattle, and also providing a fund for the Indians out of the sales of this lard; but the requirements of the treaty of 1868 must first be complied with. It is stated with very good show of reason that it will not be possible to obtain the necessary signatures, so that it is very likely that the Indians will retain the reservation intact. It is inevitable that the Indian reservations should be encroached upon by the march of civilization, and the helplessness of the tribes throws a responsibility upon the government 01 maKing suitauie provision for them?a responsibility that has too often been shirked and abused. AX EARLY CA3EPAIGX" LIE. A few days ago a special from "Washington to the Chicago Tribune stated that one of the Republican Senators who was a member of the Copiah investigating committee which sat in New Orleans, declared that at one of the balls given during the Mardi Gras festivities Jefferson Davis with his danghter, the daughter of General Lee, General Longstreet and other noted Confederate Genrals, sat- in a box which was draped with Confederate flags; that a floral sword decorated with Confederate colors, and addressed "To the President," was presented to ! the occupants of the box and was acI The Senator whn fnrmshfid | this remarkable information said it did j not look very ranch like ^Reconstruction j to him, but thought that in some other countries it would be called "treason." The Kew Orleans Times-Democrat tears this lying dispatch to pieces thus: We doubt if there be a single truthful sentence in this whole telegram. It is true that the daughters of General Lee were there, but not that the daughterof General Longstreet was with them. It is also true that the box was draped, but not true that it was draped with Confederate flags. It is true that Mr. Jefferson Davis was in the bor, but it was also true that Admiral Cooper, of the United States tvJSS, WOT1 Bis Wile, In ~TKfe~T>OX with him. It is true that a floral sword was presented, but It is not true that it was presented to Mr. Davis. It is true that the sword bore a legend, but utterly and absurdly false that the legend read: "To the President." The simple truth is that the presentation was nothing more than a tribute of respect and affection from General Lee's soldiers to General Lee's daughters. It bore the inscription "The - Sword of Lee," and possessed no earthly significance beyond that which appeared upon the surface. It was designed to tell the orphaned daughters of a brave I on/1 KonAi-oKln ffftnflomoi) that Jlio nl/1 ttUU iivuwuviv 0UHW4VUJMM w>(*v ***** V1V* comrades held bis memory in love and reverence. The human being who could misunderstand or misrepresent a demonstration so innocent and so beautiful must be base indeed, and we do not envy Senators Cameron, Hoar and Fryc, among whom the odium seems to be distributed. We believe all three of -these patriots and gentlemen were invited to the ball, and, therefore, the one who gave the alleged information had the opportunity, at least, of knowing that it was utterly and unqualifiedly false both in substance and intention. As the Charlotte Observer pointedly puts it, "the era of lying has begnn now", and in the course of the approaching campaign we may expect many such stories as that maliciously tola of the New Orleans people. The Radicals have about exhausted their supply of campaign thunder, and must needs"set about the task of laying in a' new stock. s INTELLECTUAL, ItETROGRESSIOX A correspondent of a Chicago journal argues that the race is retrograding intellectually. He asks: _ " * Who is there in England to take the place of Gladstone? Who. is there now in America to tike the places of Webster, Clay, Calhoun, Benton, Sumner, Seward and Garfield? And, as 1 regards oratory, who that has spent a , winter in Washington of late years has not been humiliated by the paucity and the weakness of the oratorical achieve^ tiicnts in Congress, as compared with former years? ' , The position of the observing correspondent is doubtless a popular one nowadays, but it is no proof that it is a correct one, all the same. The names of our bygone dead make up a list of eminent statesmen and orators, and it is not our purpose to detract anything from the fame of these great and good men. But has it never occurred to this correspondent and to the thousands of others who indulge in the same gloomy reflections, that "distance lends enchantment" here as elsewhere, and that Webster, Way, Calhoun and the hosts of others being dead and buried, their virtues alone are remembered, while their shortcomings are forgotten? Weare not of that number who entertain the conviction that the human race is retrograding intellectually, but on the contrary there is every evidence that we are individually and collectively moving forward along- the highway of intellectual progress more rapidly than ever before in the history of the world. The materia! and indnstrial developments of the present century, the progress iu the arts, the sciences and literature, and the general educational elevation of the races thronghout the civilized portions of the globe will stand as the monumental evidences of the work and achievements of our day and generation. Nor has all yet been accomplished. The same life, glow and energy permeate the intellectuality of to-day, as those which made possible the wonders and triomphs of:the first quarter of the present era. 'C. And the developments of the next; twenty-five years nmy dsftarfiand eclipse the recorded yietorits of:ali (be'j>&st, and who, among all the careful and thoughtful readers of the current events of the day, will say that it is unlikely ? And in statecraft and in the fields- of oratory, are we retrograding? We cannot thirtfc so. - w* -. . . . - Doubtless political and sectional prejudices and our natural reverence for the memories of the dead will war against an earnest advocacy of; the merits of the living; but after all can it be shown that Conkliug, Blaine. Lamar, Edmnnds and Bayard will not compare favorably in point of intel-. lectual. force and oratorical ability with Webster, Clay, Calhoun, Benton I and others? -I Subject their comparative merits xto ' whatever test the wisest and most astute of critics may select, and the results may be surprising to that class of people who rest their hopes ahd * confidence upon the dead and not upon the living. Conkling, Field, O'Connor and Campbell at the bar of the Supreme Court; Bayard, Edmunds, . Sherman and Lamar in the legislative halls of the nation; Blaine, Ligersoll, Voorhees and Vest before assemblages'' of the people, will challenge comparison with the intellectual merits of any of the. ages past, the Washington correspondent of the Chicago journal to the contrary not withstanding. " All these lamentations about retrogression in morals, religion, intellect aiid pontics, are meaningless and nonsensical, and'in the glow and light of the won- ' derful developments of the present) day, seem withoctexcuse or palliation, f .

Editors: Having- heard much that was good, bad and indifferent about the Pelican State, it occurred to the writer that a trip to the banks-_ ;0f the Mississippi would not bedevoid of pleasure, although it might not prove a very profitable venture.' However, he. decided to go, and with the fate of the hesitating man well in mind, he determined uot to stand upon the order of his going," but to go at . once. He carried out his resolution, ! and has returned. If you think he did not have a pleasant time try it Trrtni?efti-coc flrrrl when von return if J VU? UVi f VVf M?W ?? _ - ^ you-decide that you have not enjoyed yourself, my advice will be that yon give up trying to get to Heaven, for it would certainly not suit your taste. Now von must not think that I am in ! love with the country and am ready to : start an exodus to a new Canaan, for while I think that Louisiana is a good place to-visit it is a bad place to Jive in. The soil of the country is rich and productive (this; -yon _know_without ray telling), and I.have heard some yarns about its productiveness that would make yon think it a deal richer than it is, but it is as bad fo repeat a lie as to tell one, so I refrain. One cannot get more than a general idea of the appearance of a countiy from a car window. My impression ; of the country between Mobile and | New Orleans is of a low, swampy and ; level sarface. In the distance one sees long lines of trees, giving indica! tions of a vast forest beyond. This j particular section is devoted to stock 'raising with here and there feeble ; attempts*at cultivation of the soil." As yon approach New Orleans habitations ! thicken and the farms increase in size. Bay St. Louis is a summer and winter | resort about fifty miles from New Orleans. In winter it is thronged withNorthern .visitors, in summer by the New Orleans people. Should you yield to. temptation when the train : stops you will fiud that at this place | you can get a breakfast as poor as one from some eating-houses in yonc i own State. The road passes over"several arms of the Gulf that run in beI tween this point and New Orleans. As the train passes over the frail fres ties which are uncovered, so that you may fully appreciate their frailty, you feel thankful that your life has always been agood and virtuous one, and that drowning is the most delightful way of shuffling off the mortal coil, for you realize that you may. be- called" upon to shnffle at any moment. When you reach New Orlean&.your nostrils will note with pleasure (?) the smell of stale fish and the stench fromrrrtt-Korm in orocv frnm is not worried by trifles and owe soon becomes so accustomed to these little disagreeables.

You take the bath, however, believiug that mother earth is. more .respectable than coal dast. From-the bath room you wend your way through galleries and doors without number to a. coot, quiet room with a nice bed and a spring mattress, upon which you throw yourself and. feel that the pleasure yow now enjoy repays you for. all that has gone before.

The city was in : holiday attire during my visit, as the i carnival was near at hand. Canal h Efiwt. is f nrinrfnal street'ofthe 1 city. It is a broad street with wide j' pavements and bounded on both'sitfes I: by handsome stores. The New OrH1 leans merchants believe in showing off their goods. The show windows'' were filled with the handsomest and brightest goods^all tastefnlly arranged. The stores seemed ten be: doing .a good business, the streets were filled with handsomely- dressed ladies, fine; carriages and horses dashed-inp and down the street.and every ;*>ne.8eemed intent upon enjeiyipg themselves. < " The city is very irregularly bnilt, seeminsrlv without any mathematical design. All the street car lines run into Canal street, so one runs no risk of .losing himself in the city. There are many, beautilal residences and handsome buildings. Among the most noticeable of the latter are the Cus-~ torn Honse, the Grande Opera House, the. St. Charles Hotel, the Presbyterian church, and the Church of. the Jesnits. At the foot of Canal' street is a large, open space, generally spoken of as the Levee, where the cotton, snffftr and molasses are landed from the steamboats. This is near the business portion of town. Iu this immediate vicinity von find all the wholesale houses", commission merchants and men engaged in shipping/etc. Owing to the peculiar nature of the soil it is impossible to bury the dead below the surface of the earth. A hole three or four feet in depth soon fills with water, therefore all who die rest on the surface of'the earth. This fives'a pectiliarly^ striking effect to the cemeteries around J\ew^ fcvteans, 01 which there'are several vere^beautifnl ones. The* Meteaire is one~:of the prettiest. 'It is laid off in drives and walks bordered Ijy trees and .beautiful Sowers.* Costly vaults, designed after temples and mosques, contain the bodies of those who have died, and at a first glance one is strongly impressed with the" idea of a; veritable "city ol the dead".

This Tear to Witness the Centenary of American Methodism?How .the' M. E Church, South, proposes to Celebrate the Great" Event. ' , . . This year, 1884, is a great and notable one* In. the annals of American Methodism. It will witness the cete- bratioai of the one hundredth auniversary of the Methodist Episcopal Church on this -continent, and as certain to prove a year of unnsnai activity and profouud interest tbronghout-the wideextended borders of that powerful denomination of Christians. . The grand historic facts-relating to the beneficent character and wonderful achievements of Christianity through the organized plans and the doctrines of Methodism during its pathway through this century of its existence in America, are ; ? < , _?-.7.1?^ a v>rr truly pnenomeuai, ?? iwiuuwtcu^cu uj the world's leading minds, and one of the grandest problems of the age. With more communicants than any other religious body in America, it is matter of interest to briefly review some of the facts of general" interest connected with the history of the Methodist Church. Beginning iu obscurity and feebleness, it has achieved fur itself everywhere a most wonderful success. This great religious movement has, immediately or ; remotely, erw friiron ?n imnnlsp to Christian feel &"v" ? ?I ? ihg and profession, oh all sides, that it has come to present itself as the Startin? point Ck? our nv<xlrfrn -poligtaus tilstory. - " ^ * In 1784, the year when the Methodist Church was organized in Baltimore, when Coke and Asbury were acknowledged and set apart as Superintendents, or Bishops, , there were only 14,688 members, 83 preachers, 64 church-buildings, no missionaries, and no institution of learning within the bounds of the denomination. But from that time until the present the ?Viac? nnan olmncf pvwm U1 JU.CLUWVHOJH Hits WVVK incalculable. This result was achieved by men who can well be denominated heroes in the loftiest sense of the word. Accepting the motto of John Wesley? their Church's founder?"The "Wold is my Parish," these men of, God traversed every State and Territory of our great country, preaching the gos- : pel with power and in demonstration of the Spirit?building np the Church. Their entire singleness of purpose in spreading the gospel has been their prominent characteristic, and to-day Ainerjoan Methodism numbers within her various branches 3^93,724 members ; 25,839 traveling preachers, and ~ * ? ? * 1 ?.1 " oft AAn 3?,Y 14 local preacncrs, ami o.s,wv church-edifices valued at $100,000,000; 258 institutions of learning, embracing universities,.colleges, seminaries, and high schools ;jn 1882 had 433 missionaries in foreign fields sent from America, besides 1,009, native helpers; and. during that year contributed for the cause of foreigji missions the suui of $551,447 44. The M. E. Church, South, has prepared to join in the celebration of * the Centennial Anni versary of the Organization of the Methodist^ Episcopal Church in America," which will occurin Baltimore on Dec. 27, and proposes to commemorate the great ;e?eut thjoughortt its entire -bounds with suitable services and by raising funds for Educational purposes, Ghunch. Ex- . tention, - and Missions?three noble objects to winch the liberality., ef the Church will certainly respond. Two millions of dollars is' the amount proposed to be raisfed tor these objects, and that this purpose can be accomplished there should be no doubt; it will certainly not exhaust the treasury of this strong Church with its nearly nine hundred thousand members. . -'' ; * It may be interesting to our readers to recount what American Methodism " has hitherto accomplished ori her Centenary occasion.A We "first revert to the Centennial of 1889: As Hie " first Methodist Society was formed in London in the montlT of November, 1739, so 1889 "became properly the one hundredth year of Methodism. It was accordingly celebrated in Europe and America. During that Centenary year with a membership of 746,216 members, including" colored members and Indians, the Methodist Church in America raised $600,000 for Missions, 1 education purposes, and for the support of die wornout preachers, and the widows, children, and orphans, of preahers. The westeyan Methodists . of Great Britain raised over one million dollars for similar objects. : The next Methodist Centennial event was in 1866. It was in commemoration of the" first Methodist preaching services held in this country in 1766, and was celebrated by the* Methodist Epscopal Church in 1866* Education and Church Extension were the great objects of their benevolence, and 52,000,000 was suggested as the amount to be raised. The resnlt was a magnificent one, the thank-offerings amounting to $8,70?,468 39, or more than four times the amount proposed at the outset The successful celebration of these . two former Centenary events should certainly encourage . our Southern Methodist friends to the accomplishment of the noble deeds they have essayed. Such. a past ought to be an inspiration. \ Able and competent conqjmittees have this work in hand, and will spare no effort to successfully consummate it. rhe Central Centenary Committee, [ " \ < * I ^ with head-quarters at Nashville, Tenn., 1 is composed as follows: E.

Foulk, of the Columbia and Greenville Railroad, was arrested at Greenville last Monday charged with abducting a fifteen-year-old girl named Renah Johniton, daughter of R. D. Johnston, of Williamston. She pur chased a ticket for Greenville, was taken by the conductor on the arrival of the train to the Mansion House, where, at her request, he registered her name as Miss Delere Brewer, Grove Station. She was assigned to a room, had snpper, and after snppei was escorted to the opera by the conductor, and after the opera returned to the hotel, remaining that.night, and leaving on the return train with the /inndnpfnr riprf. mnrninor. Her DarcutS knew nothing of all this, supposing that she had gone to spend the night with a lady friend. When her departure was discovered the police were notified and the above facts learned, resulting in the arrest. Conductor Foulk is a married man with two children, and asserts that there was no improper conduct, he simply taking the youug.girl to the hotel and opera at her request. The girl went to Au- ' gusta, Ga., but soon returned to Greenville. Upon a thorough investigation it was ascertained that Captain Foulk's conduct had not been improper, and the proceedings against him were dismissed. ma raw HiauiiinuiLi. t # MACHINERY, OF ALL KINDS FOR SALE BY J.
