THE NEWS AHD HEBALD. j WINXSBOPwO, S. C. j YFEDXESDAT, JD'E 8, : : ISS7. I M. U, BJ.GSn.lLB, ) | v Editors. j sr. X. XcDOXAZD.' j Dn. McGlvnn, an obscure Catholic ; prieit, becamc a convert to Henry ; George's gospel of laud reform ai:d j commenced to preach it, and on this j account woke up one morning to find j himself famous. Some years ago a woman in Massa-1 chusetts was tried, convicted and ex- I ecated for witchcraft, an imaginary j offence. And now Xew Jersey has just rivaled Massachusetts by trying, convicting and punishing a man for j blasphemy. All the fools have not yet I departed this life. The French people are generally displeased at the displacement of Gen. Boulanger, as minister of war. Demonstrations in his favor have been made throughout the Republic. Upon retiring from office Gen. Boulanger issued an order requesting the people to render all needful support to his successor, and promised himself to set an example t:of military and Republican discipline." Boulanger will be heard from again. The Liberal party in England is hopelessly divided in esponsirg or rather in inaugurating the present plan for the settlement of the Irish question. Mr. Gladstone alienated many of his ablest lieutenants. The veteran John Bright criticises the "grand old man" in terms as bitter as anv that Lord Randolph Churchill could employ. He accuses Mr. Gladstone with duplicity, and says 'hat the Liberals who are now supporting him are "marching- to a future of shame." The Council of the Feniau Brotherhood have issued an address to the Irish Nationalists which will be read with interest. It embodies a letter from the well-known Dick Short, who was arrested two years ago for attempting to kill Captain Phelan in O'Donovan Rossa;s Office. The particulars of the stabbing and the subsequent disclosures in court will be remembered. Short now charges Rossa with naving withheld a sum of$185.25 of the money which was raised for him. New York City is said to have the most complete and efficient fire depart ment in the world, and 3-et all ot its efforts to check the recent terrible conflagration in that city were for hoars absolutely fatile. It was a monstrous fire. Says the New York Star: "It were worth many days'journeys to see the heavens lit up in such lurid splendor." The dread 6?C?G sounded to summon the full power of the department, but such is the size of the great metropolis that only a few of its inhabitants were aware that anything extraordinary was taking place. "VYexdell Phillips said some years agO that i y>g cmcrgics**' -oX the Republican party had exhausted themselves, and that the machine had fallen into the dirty hands of commonplace men. And it was reserved for John Sherman to demonstrate the truth of the charge. According to this venerable bloody-shirt shaker the Republican party has nothing to urge upon the country but the dead is?nc? of the past. It will be weighed in the balances and found wanting. And as for John he has been "wanted" at the penitentiary ever since he stole the electoral vote of Louisiana. The struggle of the Pope for a restoration of temporal power is a phenomenon which we have never been able to understand. Jast what right the church has with "power" is a question which we would like to have explained. Every now and then the official head of the Catholic church, from the darkness of his palace in the holy city, sends out a letter to the faithful, urging them never to relax their efforts in behalf of the church in this particular. Many curses may fall upon the Italian people in the future, but is to be hoped that no such calamity as the restoration of papal supremacy awaits them. The new schedule from Alston to Asheville is simply an unmitigated nuisance. The corporation kings are mad of late and seemingly anxious to precipitate a decision of the question "whether the railroads are made for the country, or the country for the railroads?" But we advise them not to go about the matter too hastily. It will be finally adjudicated before long, the Devil and Tom Walker to the contrary notwithstanding, and to raise friction in the meantime will rub hard on both sides. The Richmond and Danville Company had better take counsel and continue the day train from Alston to Asheville. EvtRYTHiXG that money and corporate influence can do will be done to bring the inter-State commerce law into contempt. The friends of fair play had just as well understand this in the beginning. The iaw may be - defective and doubtless is in some particulars, and these will be seized upon by its enemies, and magnified with the view of exciting popular dissatisfaction. Monopolies always die bard. One opportunity which Congress afforded them, was its neglect to provide maximum rates. Nothing appears to us to be more certain than that the law will yet have to draw the line in this particular somewhere, and say to tee railroads, "Thus far skalt thou go and no farther." Hill's Hepatic Panacea Is the rery best remedy ever offered for sale for the cure of Constipation, Indigestion, Dyspepsia and Sick Headache. Prescribed "by all the leading physicians as the greatest family medicine. Gentle and effective in its action, pleasant to take, does not purgo or gripe.

McMaster, Brice & Ketchin. r i. t'ryt'j rf y-?? ?e%r^rj^LZ~'*x.-:? John Sherman's love for speechmaking will soonor or later bring him to grief. If he expects to come out ahead of the man from Maine he had j better stop talking at once. The j bloody shirt is now looked upon by the best element of his own partv as - - . * i an unclean garment, and it is hardly j possible to ring any new changes on i it, at least it is always the same old ! thing over again with John, ills ! friends had better inducc him to go | with Blaine over to Eurone. The i * i country can very well spare both of ! them, and they wonld also be such j good company for one another. If, j hewever, he can't be prevailed on to take this trip, he ought to be placed under lock and key immediately, He will undoubtedly ruin his prospects if i he is permitted to keep up his monot onoii.? braying much longer. --rs. -?cs | The surplus in the national treasury I is daily accumulating. Already it is i said to have reached the enormous sum j of $450,000,000. The government has | j no use for this money at all, and con-! j sequentlv it has to ue m tne vauus 01 i the treasury department. It is withJ drawn absolutely from the trade of the J world: the currency is hourly coni tracted, the curses of protection nsulti! plv. And this stale of affairs coni " i tinues simply because it is beneficial j to monopolists whose influence in polij tics is potential, and assumed to.be es; sential to the success of cither of the ; great political parties. The truth | might as well be told. ThcDemocratj ic party is pledged to "revenue reform,-'but the chances of its ever redeeming this pledge are growing "beautifully less every day." Upon this question the party is hopelessly divided. Ben Butler's Ethics. The press of New York city conies down rather heavy on old Ben Butler for some bad advice that he is alleged to have given recently to some young lawyers in Boston. lie is quoted as saying, :'I never wish to defend a man unless I know that he is guilty. Be sure that you Unci out that he is guilty." The Times says that it is an insult to the Massachusetts courts, for which the offender should be disbarred. ~ A*. &ome otner papers arc severer sun. Bui as a matter of fact, while many honorable lawyers will repudiate the seutimcnt aforesaid, it is foolish to suppose that it embodies an insult to the court or anyone else, ff a man charged with crime be really guilty, a lawyer may be the better able to defend him by knowing the real facts of the case. But according to the accepted ethics of the profession, a lawyer can net in any case decline to defend a man simply because he believes him to be guilty, this for the sufficient reason that he is not the proper judge of his client's guilt or innocence. The innocence of the defendant is presumed, his guilt must be proved. Th.e I'all of Soalansrer. Tha yreucli Cabinet Las been reorganized and Gen. Boulanger left out. This is taken as a victory for the peace party. Gen. Boulanger, during his term of office as Minister of War, reorganized the French army and placed it upon a basis, as regards efficiency, which is perhaps scconcl to none in Europe. lie has made the name of France feared and respected in the councils of Europe as it has never been sir.ee the fall of the Empire at Sedan. His fall, like everything else in French politics, was unexpected. Gen. Boulanger s rise in politics was rapid and unprecedented. By many he was regarded a shallow demagogue who had seised upon the prejudices of his people to life himself into power; bv others he was looked upon as the coming man who should wipe out the humiliation of Sedan and Paris. His work while Minister of War shows him to have been something more than a demagogue. The colossal scale upon which he organized the n__.Tr 1. army is usuii uuiiuiu.-.ivv; jyiwi i,uai u& had an ulterior object in view. Ilis retirement from power prolongs, at least for a while, the present precari' 0U3 reign of peace. 3. The Xctv I'ciitical Heresy. One of the noticeable features of modern life is the number of prophets who have come to the front to preach some new social or political creed. They may be known by their unlimited faith in the efncacy of legislation. They would shape the end of all things 6y an act of the Legislature; their philosophy is shallow, but their arrogance is correspondingly profound. It is from these that the proposition comes to amend the Constitution of the United States by inserting some vague declaration to the effect that this j is a Christian nation, and to force by law the practice of religion upon the people. Tney are known in political circles as "the God in the constitution party." Their proposition is as reactionary as it can be; it is little short of a proposal to go back to the dark and fanatical days of papal supremacy. The princeple of the divorcement of church and State is fundamental to the American system of government?nay, it is one of its most splendid features. It was from the tyranny of a Siate j church that our forefathers lied to this i continent, and they had not forgotten : this when the Constitution was ; framed.?It seems though that some i of their descendants have. It is no excuse lor these "reformers," as they style themselves, that they are inspired by benevolent purposes; even "hell is paved with good intentions." The moment of their success in this fiountry will bring back the day of religions persecution. Give the new political heresy a wide berth. Buck.Ion's Arnica Salve.

It is guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction, or money j refunded. Price 25 cents per oox. The Lawyers and theii Eaeniies. The Stale makes a big mistake when it appropriates money for making lawyers and other professionals. They add nothing to the State. The Siate simply prepares them to get a little more of what others produce. "What the State really needs is educated producers?trained farmers and mechanics?who can add something to the wealth of the State.?jXexcberry Observer. Our contemporary performs anew the foal of the fellow in the fable, who climbed up the tree and lopped off the limb upon which he was sitting. If our contemporary had not already indicated what its answer would be we tvonkl ask the Observer why. if the State ought not to appropriate anything for the education of "lawyers and other professionals/' ought it to appropriate anything for the education of farmers and mechanics? But our contemporary has given its reason. The former, it says, "add nothing to the State." Few people who can make any just pretentions to a liberal education will accept the dictum of the Observer, opposed as it is to the plain truths of history. The "State," if fortunate enough to be civilized, needs "lawyers and other professionals" as well as it needs "trained farmers and mechanics." Indeed, the numberless complications that spring from the daily lives of men in the civilized State, renders the important function of administering justice well nigh impossible without the assistance of a profession learned in the wisdom of the law. Thp. notion that lawyers, doctors.! civil engineers-, literary men and "other professionals" add nothing to the State can be held only by those w ho look only at the surface of things. But we are not contending that the State should appropriate money to cducatc "lawyers and other professionals." Indeed, we don't know of any State that is doing this or contemplating such a step. We will speak on this question when the issue arises. 3Ir. Georse and the Girls. Henry George told the clever young women who interrogated him the other evening upon his land theories that "land is the only thing which grows in value on account of the growth of the community, and hence the community should get the advantage of the increased value." If the bright school-girls had on their thinking caps?as their sharp questions indicate that they had? they were not misled by this fallacy. Almost everything produced for sale "grows in value on account of the growth of the communitv." Isews? ji . iUtf papers are inaue va.iu.auie [nopnuca u v the increase of population. The product of a strawberry patch grows in valuo from the same cause. A blacksmith's stand, though on leased land, grows in value by the growth of the community around it. The same thing is true of a hotel, a store and of every other business enterprise. If the land owner should surrender the "unearned increment" in his property to the community, should not the publisher, the gardener, the blacksmith and everybody else do the same? If not, why??JY". Y. World. Almost any argument, however fallacious, satisfies a man who is already' conviuccd, and the foregoing criticism of the World exemplifies this truth. Mr. George's position may be utterly untenable, but the argument of our contemporary to this end is exceedingly unsatisfactory. Indeed, the dis tinction between property in land and property in a strawberry patch, or a printing office, is so patent that even the "bright school girls" ought to have seen it. Such arguments as the World adduces do more harm than good?the cause of truth frequently suffers from the blind zeal of its advocates. Mr. George comes forward and insists upon the enforcement of an ethical principle as regards property in land, and the opponents of his measure must show some reason ethical, political orolherwise why it should not be enforced. No far-fetched anal ogy will suffice. The great objections to the doctrine of Mr. George is its utter impracticability, its manifest unsuitableness at least to the present stage of civilzation. It is a step, and a long one, too, towards the heretical doctrine of the Socialists, the principle of a community of goods. Any fanciful theory for the reorganization ol society upon a plan which will necessarily tend to restrict the play of the strongest faculties of men should be scrutinized with the utmost care. Men won't improve land that be longs to everybody; they will rear 110 costly edifices upon it. If Mr. George will come down from bis high moral principle to the practical every day affairs of a wicked world and show that a city such as New Yerk would ever be built upon everybody's land, then we will seriously think about joining him. Our Proposed Cotton Factory. (Laurensville Herald.) When it was first proposed to build a cotton factory at "this place, it was held, and properly so, that such an enterprise was a necessity?an indispensable requisite, not only to the continued growth and prosperity of our town, but indispensably necessary even to hold the ground already gained. Hence, if we would uot retrograde; li \VU WUU1U nub iuai; jjcrpuiubii/u anu. have business turned from us and diverted into other channels and to other i towns, the proposed factory must be 1 made a success. This must be done, or some other manufacturing enterterprise or enterprises of smaller magnitude and involving less money, must be inaugurated?something to give employment to labor; something to increase the trade of the town; something to give employment and support to the mechanical labor already here, and keep it here. Otherwise it must necessarily leave and hunt employment elsewhere. And as money makes money, so capital follows capital. An investment of even fifty thousand dollars here, in some kind of industry, would induce other capital to come, to be invested in some form or other. This increased capital would, of necessity, increase population in a corresponding ratio. 3Ic35aster's Sure Care for Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat, Bronchitis, And all diseases of the pulmonary organs.

Xovr that it has been decided that Georgia is to have Blackwood, it is to be hoyed that the Chronicle will quiet down'and cease pulling its hair. (Abbeville Messenger.) The question of union with the Northern Presbyterians nas been discussed in the General Assembly of the Southern Paesbyterian chirch in St. Ivnnis. Tt is a sten which l>v all means should be avoided. (Lancaster Ledger.) A wideawake merchant always selects the dull season for advertising. Proper induceineuts liberally advertised in the newspaper will briug in hundreds of dollars tha; we didn't know was in the country. (Ilampton Guardu n.) One of the great needs of the South, and, in fact, the greatest need, is for more small manufacturing institutions. "We have all the natural advantages for small industries. Fine amber and plenty of it is to be found along the swamps and rivers of many parts of South Carolina. (.4rulerson Intelligen cer.) Some wiseacres have discovered that ~tvrtnfir Vftvi 1TT IUKIU il J>1"UU1WUUU paibjr, T VUIJ the acuteness of some men is remarkable. We wondr that great thick ears have not grown upon their heads long ago. They are already acept in braying, and with this addition their status would be fully assured. (Anderson Jour nil.) The discussion of bustles, bangs and blackguards is a new departure in modern evangelism, but then many wonderful things are being done these j days in the name of religion. We may yet have pulpit instructions as to cutting a polonise bias or hem-stitching the piece-work of cra::y quilts. More Light Wanted. (Edgefield Adverser.) The Advertiser office lias just finished printing a brief for Arthur S. Tompkius, Esq., the read ng of which brief abundantly discloses the fact, that we have at least one Judge in ty'Ii/v -T/m* rnocon OUUvll V/Lii Uiinu \y uv ivi or other 5.3 not fit to preside in a Conrt that may pass upon the Jives, the liberty, and the property of our people. I Let us Have a K< st. (Abbeville M&diu <n ) We beseech our journalistic brethren to let the transactions of the recent Episcopal convention in Charleston rest where it is. The public has been informed of the facts and can come to their own conclusions. Let us have peace and quiet on the s ubject. Our friends of that church can settle their own matters without any advice sriven by the editors of the Stat s. (JFeicberry Observer.) The editors of the Greenville JS'eics and the Observer have for a long time enjoyed the distinction of being the only*untitled men of the profession in theState. Now the Observer editor is left alone in his glory; fo* we read in the list of non-commissioned officers I of the Greenville Guards in Tuesday's I 1Vfitrs- "First Oornoral. A. B. Wil Fianis." We extend congratulations. {Edgefield Mont or.) Henry Waterson's statement that "The editor who is true to his calling makes every year of his life a record which would be hurtful, if not fatal to campaign requirements," kjocks another prop from beneath our already waning hopes. Indeed it was onr main prop. But we will endeavor to De "true to our calling" if we-never "get there." Seriously, however, Mr. Waterson's words arc as true as gospel. (Clarendon Enters mse.) These words from Peter Cooper should be printed "in letters of gold ^>n .pictures of silver" framed axid hung over the desk of every business'man in town: "In all towns where a j newspaper is published, every man should advertise in it; even if it be nothing more than a cc.rd stating his name and the business he is engaged in. It does not only pay the advertiser, but lets the people at a distance1 know that the town :n which you reside is a prosperous community of business men. i?s the iteed is sown, so the seed recompenses. Never pull down your sign while you expect to do business." (Charleston D tip'.itch.) j It is a mistake lo bene re tnat aaver_ tising during a dull season does not pay. People are just as anxious to make purchases during a dull season as they are at any otlwr time, aud while they may not have as much money to use as "they would like, still the desire to purchase remains. In looking over the advertising columns of newspapers, the desire becomes strengthened, and through the advertisements many places are visited, and many articles purchased which would not have been thought of otherwise. The compounders of parent medicines arc so well aware of this fact that they extensively advertise their wares the whole year round, and accumulate lanre fortunes by so doing. Fish Laws. Darlington iV<m There is no doubt about it that this law is constantly violated in Darlington county, and the good of the community demands that the offenders be brought to justice. Urder our laws there are certain rights which belong to the public, and whic'i all are permitted to enjoy alike. Of course there arc always some men vrho will take more than their share of the public property if left to themselves, and in order that such persons may not indulge their selfish prope nsities to the 1 extent of depleting the streams of the State it is deemed expedient by our law-makers to provide such" safeguards as those mentior ed above, and he who violates them should be made to bear the penalty. \ Jh SB jSSP Eft /?? ? ?58 jS sriBm m k *?AKIHU POWDER Absolutely Pure.
