Tilden "wiH not down"!
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
. THE CBS SCENT CITY.
What a Fairfield Man Saw, Heard, Felt and
Thought on a Visit There.
Messi's. 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

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

of one part water and two . parts clay,"
and your, bath tub resembles a mud

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. Just as-your

this eyery-day world and the beautiful

answer is No; for that mosqnito

While wandering around in hopes of
shaking off your. bloodthirsty- pur- <
-sners. you will- see much in New Or- !
Jeans to admire. 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". " .
Well, Messrs. Editors, I will not
impose further ou good nature at present,
but at ;somc future time I may
have something mOre to say about nay
visit to the Crescent City. " ~
I' congratulate you "upon the' improvement
in your paper, I was

of the Methodist Episcopal Church
on this -continent, and as certain to
prove a year of unnsnai activity and

With more communicants than any

some of the facts of general" interest

Church. Beginning iu obscurity
and feebleness, it has achieved fur

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

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

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

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

objects to winch the liberality., ef the
Church will certainly respond. Two

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.

A Scandal Ended.?Conductor John
II. 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.
