|? The gripp is assuming a fearful
aspect in New York. The death rate
is increasing.
Mark Twain keeps a black cat in
his house and calls him j>att?n. Perhaps
he believes in the omen that a
black cat will bring riches.
PThe newspapers in the State, with
very few exceptions, condemn the
VillVUVJl v in uiv */in.vfc vov
words iu the English language.
Seven hundred and fi fix-five
miles of railroad have been built iu
Sonth Carolina since 1880, and i;i the
South 19710 miles of track have bien
laid iu the last decade.
m
A great many members of both
brandies of Congress caught the gripp
during the holidays, and will not be
in their seats for several days. Many
of the hi-h dignataries of the world
are suffering from the disease, and we
" hare no doubt some crank will feign
it in order to be fashionable. The
Dowager Empress Augusta has it, and
we presume in society circles the
german, the card party, the fashionable
teas will alP be interrupted by
the fashionable influenza.
The fact that tbe prisoners in the
B-irim ell jail were not guarded as directed

neglect of duty, and has indircctly

These are questions that ought to be

satisfactory explanation.
Statistics gathered from the most
available sources indicate that 343,999

Tke Utverntr Dies His Duty.
It i* with pleasure that we note that
Governor Richardson has offered a
reward of $200 for the arrest of each
one of the Barnwell lynchers. It is,
however, no more than he ought to
have done under the pressing necessity
of the case. It is also gratyfxinjr to
see that some of the best citizens and
unprejudiced thinking people of Barnwell
condemn the actrociops crime.
All men of the bettor element of society
must deuouuce the action of the
mobas a total defiance of all law,
_ political, social and moral. It is a
dirty blot npon the white garments of
oar state mat cannot oe eas*iy wasnea

^
The Okra Plant.
Perhaps no experiment ha? been
watched more than the one which has
-- sought to inanafactare the okra fibre.
It has been watched on account of a
demand for somethiug to tak* the
place of the jute and on account of the
novelty of the thin v. Wno erer
>v thought ihat the vegetable would be
used for this purpose?
N. G. G., in the News and Courier
says that Mr. Ludlow, now of Columbia,
who came from Euglaud, declsres
that he can make a gin to separate the
1 fibre from the stalk. Mr. Ludlow is a j
practical engineer and machinist, having
put up mills in England, Germany,
t* ranee, Austria ana Mexico. it wouia
seem then that bis assertion is to be
received with some credence.
If this machine can be made, it will
be of the greatest benefit. Says Mr.
Ludlow, "the okra stalk is essentially
- different from the jute, cotton and
ramie, in this, that in it the wood surrounds
the fibre, while in the others it
it mixed with it, and this is the key of
the problem of cheap production."
jOou't Give Up.
We have in Winnsboro and Fairfield
County as shrewd, energetic, progressive
aud wise business men as can be
found in any county in the State, and
there is no valid reason why we should
be frustrated in our wonderlul movement
along the road of progress. The
transitory depression at this time
8honld only force us to Dend every
effort to keep in the line marching onward
to victory. We must keep in
\ the current. It is no time to grow
faint-hearted. The harder the times,
. the harder we should work. Let each
individual do this, and when these
squeezes come, he will be the better j
able to stand them. If we bring our
whole energies into plav, by and
by we shall mount on such a high
plane that it will tafce a mighty force
to pull us down. We shall then be so
fortified that one short crop will have
no sensible effect on us. Let every
one, then, this year start out with a

tude? of unlimited space, completing j
its revolution, man stops as it reaches j
the starting point of la?t year and re- j
fleets over what he ha* accomplished i
during his travel around the sun.
The year of 1889 has come and gone i
with all its jo\s and sorrows. This]
time last year many were the noble j
resolutions made; manv were the new I
leaps into new fields of labor with
buoyant spirits and hopes of bettering
our worldly condition in life. Manv
of the resolutions have fleeted away
a* the wind; honest efforts have been
thwarted a3 br the tnachiiiations of an
j evil spirit. Of coarse individuals
; among our people, yes many, can be
| found who arc dfjected with care?,
j sorrows and disappointment*. The
j situation at this time will strike some j
people as very depressing; an all-wise j
Providence has seen tit to deny the ;
earth a fall yield. Oar farmer* feel
dejected; cotton, their money crop,
h- e f?.-?mnarativnlv n failure Tf
is not worth while to mince matters;
the (>iciare i:> a sad one, yet when we
make a close and careful review of the
past year there is much to inspire hope
and stimulate us to begin the new \ear
with a determination to succeed.
The man who broods and sorrows
over his misfortunes is not the man
into whose character enters one of the
; very fundamental elements of success,
j He who would achieve anything inu.st
not be overcome by a temporary aa- j
ver?-i;y; lie must be sanguine even j
though at times he is tossed about by j
a puas-iiijc current of misfortune.
Scientists ^ell us that were we not sensible
to pain, we would not be sensible
to j leasure. To experience pleasure
we must have had some pain.
This same principle runs th oajrh our
business live-. Depiessions in money
rna'ter* are in accordance with natural
laws. Lii the man.who has not done
so well this \ear have the grit and
pluck to amend his errors and obliterate
the disappointments of the past.
We have not much to grumble about,
after all. We have had no panic. In
truth, in many respects the past year
is one that marks a wonderful step
towards the goal of progress among
our people. During the yt-ar the oil
mill, the cotton factory and sevetal
minor enterprises have ba n inaugurated.

corn in their crios thsn has been
known in many years. We have been
informed that nearly every farmer in
the County has enough corn to carry
him through the year. Is this not
something to be thankful for? We
make the assertion boldly that our
people are in good shape for a success-,
fal year. Life .is before you and not
behind yoa, and whatever that life be,
it is what you make it.
Jeff Davis on War Prisons.
The January number of BelfonVs
Magazine contains Jefferson Davis' last
contribution to history. His subject
is "Andersouville and other War
Prisons."
Much has been said in the last quar
ter of a century about the cruelty of
the South to her prisoners of war; the
question found Its way into partisan
politics and was the" subject of a
tamons aeoate m tne aenate 01 tne
United States in which the chief participants
were James G. Claiue and
B. II. Hill, of Georgia. Mr. Blaine
made a bitter attack upon the S?uth
and Mr. Hill replied in an oration of
terrifte and overwhelming force. 4"he
?AH( t\ll T f V?AIV1
bptxuu was vv ui 111 kjl uuiu vuaiuaui.
Mr. Blaine was entirely overthrown.
Bat of course this did not pat an end
to the circulation of the slander.
Mr. Davis takes up the subject and
great weight will be given to his
authoritative statements."
Mr. Davis shows in brief that it was
the Confederacy which souyht and
obtained early in Hie war the adoption
of a cartel for the exchange of
prisoners, and he shows that it was
line uuuea oiaces urovernment mat
broke the cartel latterly in the war and
refnsed farther to exchange prisoners.
Speaking of the difficulties encountered
iu the care of the prisoners, Mr.
Davis says:
"The exceptional inhuman act of
the North declaring medicines to be
ivintpiihen/l (ft whifilt t'nopo iil hnf ftn'o
WUU?WUi.W, 1.V " U?V/.. VMVtV
if indeed there is but one, other example
in modern war," etc.
And again speaking of the causes of
mortality and citing facts, Mr. Davis
says: "It wa? not starvation, as has
been alleged, but acclimation, unsuitable
diet, and despondency, which were
the pot&it agents of disease and deatb.
These it was not in our powsr to remove.
The remedy was with those
who unlike King David commenced
thp?r lamentation sffr>r the pnd harl
come. The remedy demanded alike
by hnmanity and good faith was an
honest execution of the cartel."
The prisoners themselves as Mr.
Davis shows, appealing to their
government for such aid as it might
reudfcr passed resolutionsexhonorating
the Confederate government. Their
appeal was pathetic.
44 Must this thing still go on? Is
it - ... I .5"1 * * * * I
mere no uupt;;
"We have suffered patiently and are
still willing to suffer if by so doing we
can benefit onr country but wc must
respectfully beg leave to say that we
are not willing to suffer the ends of
any party or clique to the detriment of
onr families and onr country/'
The unfortunate prisoners seem to
understand where the trouble was.
The article will be continued in the
next number of the magazine, and Mr.
Davis, we venture to say, has set the
question forever at rest so far as
the truth of history is concerned. His
words will carry additional weight
from the circumstance of his death and
from the personal character of the man
I * I
^^H^ill be better
^^rJewas far too brave a
PP^^nfstreat unfortunate and helpless
prisoners. His conra^e was of
the heroic sort that uever falters, when
the earth trembled beneath the conflict
he alone was serenely calm. And
even when the end approached, and j
the Confederacy crumbled beneath his j
feet, when Lee had sheathed his shining
sword forever, when hi-s capital
was in the hands of the enemy, he
turned at Danville and facing alone
the invading hosts witli a spirit still
unbroken he says with manly defiance
"we will smite the smiter back."
