Important to Farmers.?A recent
I new regulation of the New York

weight of bales, is of interest to every
packer of this staple. On and after
September the 1st, cotton buyers in

bales weighing less than 400 pounJs
cent per pound; under 350 i ounds
& cent per pound, and packages
weighing less than 300 pounds will
not be considered bales, and consequently
unmerchantable. The present
cotton season is now almost upon us,
and -ur farmers should keep this in
remembrance in order that their cotton
may be packed in bales sufficiently
lanre to be saleable, without any
deduction under the new regulations.

A Generous and Extensive Loan.
?An earnest Christian lady makes the
following offer to our readers:?"I
will loan, free of postal and all charges
to such of your readers as will promise
a careful reading and to pay return
postage after reading it, a book which
in interesting style shows the Bible to
be a self-interpreter, and its teachings
grandly harmonious, viewed in the
light of sanctified reason and common
sense.
"I want to put this book into the
hands of all the skeptically inclined, as
an aid and guard against the growing
scientific skepticism. It is not dry,
musty reading, but truly 'meat in due
season' to the truth-hungry. The
light of this precious little volume has
made the Bible a new booJ, a treasure,
a mine of wealth, to many as well as
to myself- And I feel that I cannot
better use my means than in circulating
this work by the thousand.'

Dkatii of Miss Sallie McMastei:.
?"We regret to announce the death of
Miss Sallie McMaster, which occurred
at her father's home 111 our town on
Tuesday morning at four o'clock, in
the twentieth year of her age. She
had been confined to her bed for the
past five weeks with tvpho-malarial
fever. About a week ago she became
a great deal better, and an over confidence
in her ability to be up and
around gave her a relapse, after
which she began #to grow worse until
she was released from her suffering on
Tuesday. She had been for several
years a consistent memocr 01 me
A. R. P. Church, and was kind and
gentle in all her associations with
friends and schoolmates. Her funeral
obsequies were held iu the A. R. P.
Church on Tuesday evening, her pastor,
the Rev. J. T. Chalmers, officiating,
after which her remains were
interred in the adjoining ckui'ch-yard.

LIBERTY HILL VS. W1XXSBORO.
Although the Liberty Hill base ball
club was unable to fulfil their engagement
with the Winnsboro' club last
week on account of high water, they
were not to be beaten out, and Friday
last was set as the day they would
cross bats with our boys. About noon
they arrived in town uy private conveyance,
and began to make preparations
for the game which was to open
at o o'clock. A large -crowd had
assembled at the College park at that
hour to witness the game, and with
great confidence that our boys would i
come off victorious. The locals took
the field and play was called by the
umpire. The visitors went out in
one, two, three order, while tne locals
chalked up one rnn to their orcdit.
Neither side scored in the sccond
inning. On the third inning the locals
added two moie runs to their score
Vmfhov cu!o t; Hind in the next.twol
innings, making tjc game stand at the
end of the filth inning 3 to 0 in favor
of the locals. The visitors got 011 their
mettle in the sixth inning and scored
four runs, while our boys added three
more to their score. In the seventh
inning the visitors were held down to
i.n? wiiiin rlio home team made
VAiV A ?? 4J?.v
six more. Every one thought at this
time that the locals would win with
hands down, but it was not to be so.
Two errors on the part of the locals at
a critical point in the next inning cost
the locals the game, the visitors making
seven runs in this inning while our
boys failed to score. On the last
itininsr the Liberty Ilill boys added
three runs to their score and held the I
locals down to one, and thus winning
the game by a score of 13 to 15.
The visitors were out-played at

Messrs. Editors: -I am obliged to
your correspodent "Lig" ' for his
kind expressions of regard in his
second communication. This I did
not see until my reply to his first criticism
was in the hands of the printer.Had
I seen it before my reply would
have been somewhat different. Cut
in your "Weekly- of July 27, "Light"
has a long reply to the first article of
"Morris Creek" of June 22. lie uses
- ~7- Ir\ *V?rk lnrtrrfo vf A"P
II s/ivi 1/ myi\ iv iuv. ivugwii u*uu>v
"X. V." as an introduction, a prelude
or a pretext, evidently intending to
pour his broadsides into "Morris
Creek'* for his temerity in writing a
few lines of liis individual opinion in
regard to some of the evils incident to
i railroads. But unfortunately for j
"Light" his artillery was charged only
, with powder, making a great smoke
L but doing no execution. lie made a
man of straw, and has been battling
; against a creature of his own creation.
t tnr this hflnanse "Liorht''' mav write
two months on the advantages of railroads.
and "Morris Creek" may then
L say ""\Vell, who disputes it?" "Light"
i has assumed that "Morris Creek" has
denied any advantages arising from
. railroads, which he has not done.
' But by this I do not admit all that
5 "Light" has said in regard to these
I advantages. "Light" says in his
i second article that good and evil are
. generally mixed together in such
5 enterprises. (I write from memory
f as I have not that article at hand.)
s This is true. Then if "Morris Creek"
WM<r^ ^ibii nn aii ii i urn i ^
writes ou the evils, ajid "Light'-* on
the advantages, nothing is proven so
far xs the discussion is concerned.
There is no dispute between us on the
simple question of advantages or no
advantages. But while we have no
direct disagreement 011 this point,
there arc other points involved in
which there is. And the principal
one is, "Do railroads tend to the
moral development of Ihe country
through which thev run?" "Light"
affirms, "Morris Creck'^denies, and
of course it will devolve 011 ''Morris
Creek" to show that the arguments of
"Light" are either false or irrelevant.
As "Morris Crreek" is in sympathy
with short communications, he will
consider this question next week.
MORRIS CREEK.
ItEFLY TO "LIGIIT."
Messrs. Editors: Do railroads tend
to moral devopment? This is the
question for present consideration.
And, first, it is necessary to define the
term moral and thus free the question
t j*
irom amoiguiiy; lor u your correspondent
"Light'-' gives it one meaning
and "Morris Creek" another, no conclusion
could be reached. The modifying
term "moral" evidently precludes
the idea ot simply money making,
gain, or increasing in wealth, for
this may be done by immorality, und
often is, as by lying, deception, mis
representation, etc. The question,
then, has nothing to do with money,
simply as promoting financial prosperity.
Moral has reference to right
as the opposite of wrong, conformed
to the rules of right?subject to the
moral laws. (See Webster.) The
question then really is. Do railroads
make men better, more just, equitable j
and truthful.'
I shall now notice what "Light"'
has said on the affirmative. He first
notices the dark and benighted parts
of Kentucky, where "murderous cians
in open detianee of law, etc., wage
wars of extermination against each
other," and assumes, without proof,
tVinf the* inlrArln/>(Ir?n nf rnilrn.lfls hfis
moralized them. And yet, strange to
say, he says that ''the snort of the j
iron-horse is the signal for them to
strike tent and seek more obscure
wilds.'; Then did the railroads make
them better men by driving them
away? Is the change of locality equivalent
to reformation? Probably the
introduction of railroads caused these
murderous clans to do more mischief
in "more obscure wilds" than they
would have done where they were
better known. According to "Light's" *
own showing railroads did not make
them better men, or they would not
have gone to more obscure wilds.
Will "Light" take the position that it
is necessary to run men from their
linmnc in orr!or to l'Gform them? Do
our missionaries to heathen lands proceed
on this principle? If "Light" is
sure these men were reformed, and
that they were not reformed by other
means than railroads, will he tell us
how railroads did it? or how railroads
make men better? Do the -pulling
/
ClOWll 01 SmOKV Illl'.S uuu uji; UUIIUIIJ^
of fine houses along the Jine make
men better? Can the possession of
money or the ostentatious display of j
wealth in railroads, or in any other j
tt-ott mnto mi?n better? Does out-1
ward display make men better? Does
it not require a different influence?
"Light" also refers to the "unenviable
notoriety of our own Edgefield for
murder." Has railroads reformed
Edgefield in this respect? Think of
the" Hammond and Culbreath cases,
and of the Pressleys, three men shot
down while in the field at work, and
of other cases of comparatively, recent
dale. Yet Edgelield is pernaps as
thoroughly civilized as almost any
county in the State, full of churches
and good schools, and if the combined
moral tone of the county has not put
down murder we can hardly expect
railroads to do it.
"Light" says again, "Already in the
track of the railroads are being established
religious denominations which
heretofore could never gain foothold
in that county." (By "county" he
probably means locality.) Churches
no doubt could have been organized
hpforft the railroad came, but j
there was not the same need for them, i
for railroads induced a spirit so inimical
to moral development that there is
need to counteract it by means divinely
appointed.
In "Light's" reference to "old European
cities," he himself points out
some of tne evils resulting from railroads?"the
authorities overruning
private rights"? which he j usuries, is
this moral development? True, it may
be done when the public safety requires,
as blowing up a house to arrest
the flames. But the public safety does
not require the building of railroads.
Is it moral development lor railroad .
men to sit in judgment on the value
of private property, instead of the
.rightful owners, for the purpose of
"putting money into their own pockets?
When the strong thus domineers over
the weak and helpless, does it make
either party belter? Is it moral devel

opmenu or ijiillluiui ucvcivjjmbiu. uuu
when the shanties arc torn down in the
dark corners of these cities, and the
streets widened and straightened, and
the people driven to "more obscure
wikls" and fine houses erected along
the line, and occupied by people oi
"intelligence and virtue,l' pray, Mr.
"Light," did these people have their
virtue and intelligence before they entered
these new houses, or did the
railroads srivc it to them? If the rail
roads gave it to them, how? Was it
boxed up and sent by express? Docs
"Light" suppose that virtue and intelligence
cannot exist in crooked streets,
narrow lanes and little shar.ties? Do
they exist only where there is the
show of wealth? and ate the poor and
humble, by virtue of their lot or misfortunes,
necessarily* "reeking with
depravity and crime?" No, virtue
and intelligence do not depend on
external appearances.
