We publish to-day a call for a State j Suiiday-school Convention by Clias. H. Carlisle, chairman, to be held in ColA + rlox' s\-? LLLLLUMX * Vii IHV Xl ll VA *'A,W4 VI* As stilted in the call the promise is made that this will be "the most successful, the liveliest and most largely attended Sunday-school Convention in tins state for years." The attention of those interested in the great work of Sunday-schools is called to the circular. No doubt Fairfield will be fully represented in the Convention. No administration has been so harshly criticised as the present, and none has move perceptibly provoked the ridicule of the masses. The blunders and general dissatisfaction of the administration was a very potent factor in producing the result of the gubernatorial contests of the past year. It is due to the reactionary influence of Mr. Harrison aud his policy that Gov. Campbell was elected governor of Ohio, and was inaugurated on Monday with such brilliant ceremonies. the House on Monday, when the States were called for the introduction of bill*, Mr. (..uuimingi. of New York, offered the following joint resulution: Resolved, That there is appropriated from the treasury of the United States the sum of $o0,bt)0 to erect a bronze statue of the late Samuel J. Tilden, to be placed in the centre ?f t he rotunda of the Capitol. That on ine tablet at tbe front of the base of said statue there shall be conspicuously engraved these words: "Samuel J. Tilden, nineteenth President of the United States, but not seated." [Applause on the Demcraiic side.] That on the right of the square base shall be engraved the date of birth, election and death of such President, and that on the opposite side shall be engraved an eagle with a snake in his talons, and under them these words: "For the right." Resolved, That the President of the AJuited States, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, the. President of the Senate and the Speaker ot the House of Representatives authorized to superintend the expenditure of the money, and that a copy of these resolutions, with the names and titles of seid dignitaries, be engraven on the rear of said base. The G?verHor Offers A 8500 Keward. Governor Richardson has offered $500 for the apprehension #f David C. Ready, the white man who brutally murdered the negro Black in Barnwell County a short time since. This is the largest reward ever offered by Governor Richardson and the enormity of the crime fully justifies his action in the premises. It is to be hoped that the reward will insure the capture of Ready and that he will be tried speedily and be inflicted without mercy with the penalty of law. JL JBoon for the Harrisons It seems that Secretary Blaine and Presideut Harrison watch the appointments in each others families very close for fear that the other may get the lion's share of the spoils. Mr. Blaine had bis brother appointed deputy auditor, Mr. Harrison got even by appointing a cousin of Mrs. Harrison assistant attoruev for Southern Iowa. According to the Springfield Etpublican, Mrs. Harrison has now in office a father, brother, cousin and niece's hu3band Mr. Harrison has pro vided for his brother, nephew and brother's son-iu-)aw. Tine for Action. ? It is to be regreted that well organized anil definite plans for raising funds to erect the Davis monument were not formulated 6ome time ago. The accumulation of a fund should have been started at the time when the emotion of sorrow at the death of the ex-President was at its highest pitoh. We think this sentiment of the Gi'eenville Xacs should go home to our people: "Let us not, here in the South, allow the ignominy of a failure to be fastened on us as New York has done in the case of the Grant monument. Even Atlanta, in the effort to X - 1 A.J raise si monomelic u? luu lauiemeu Grady, is setting an example tnat we may well profit by." "We know that the South loved Mr. Davis and is willing to do anything as a tribute to his memory, bat something seems in the way of raising fnnds. There is no well organized plan 01 receiving contributions. The Sew Discovery. You have heard your friends and neighbors talking about it. You may yourself be one of the many who know from personal experience just how good a thing it is. If you have ever tried it, you are one of its staunch friends, because the wonderful thing about it is, that when once given a trial, Dr. King's New Discovery ever after holds a place in we couse. n you have never used it and should be inflicted with a cough, cold or any Threat, Lung or Chest trouble, secure a bottle at once and give it a fair trial. It is guaranteed every time, or money refunded. Bottles Free at JfcMaster, Brice & Ketchin's Drug Store. * Building and jLoa* A?>>oi,i^i*ns. The aaents of the Southern Home Bailding and Loan Association^^S"' Atlanta, Georgia, are int^a^rtrying to get up a branch^WTieir organiza*rr 1 -~.*4 ViAorrl thA tion nere. we nave ?ui plan of this new company from the gentlemen representing it, but hope ; our people will be sure of the sound! nes3 of the scheme before they invest in it. The Manufacturers' Record is authority for the statement that some of these interjtate companies are wild cat schemes. We d<> not charge that | he Southern Home Building and Loan Association is of this class, we only mean to caution our people against imposition. It is safest to get up these associations at home, and if there are , parties in town who wish to go into this plan of saving money, and can't get stock in the Association we no;v have in operation, let them organize] another. Some of these plans pass; sixteen and two-thirds per cent of the j mnr>fhlv nrpminms to the exvense ac-1 I J t t count, while the cost of managing a home concern dwindles almost out of sig-ht in comparison. Contrary to Its Public Declarations. We have never been enemies of the Alliance. We have never spoken a word to throw a feather in their way of accomplishing whatever will tend to accomplish something to advance our people in agricultural pursuits. Mr. Terrell made an address before the farmers in Winnsboro, in which, as we said at the time, he gave some wholesome advice, but lie emphasized thof t)if> Alliance was no oolit ical organization. He led the uninitiated to believe that the Alliance would run no man for office as a distinctive Alliance man. Not only from Mr. Terrell's address, but from various other sources we have gotten hold 0/ the idea that the work of the Alliance is totally foreign to political matters. When the report was circulated that Mr. Perry would resign his seat in Congress, and be brought out as an Alliance candidate for Governor, leading Alliance men denounced the rnmor a? untrue because the organization wonld hare no distinctive candidate. The following, thru, is a surprise to I ni* Union, S. C., January 15: To the Editor of the Greenville Xacs: It is now a known fact that the Alliance of this State proposes to take quite an active part in politics this year, and why not? * * * The gr?ar que?ti ?n tfaat confronts us a* an Alliance it?, who shall represent us in the different important j o>itious of our government? The answer given by a great many i.> tin-, thai we want tfooil, honest, ii:du>iri!?i?s and economicial men from our own order, and it is our hope that when the proper time comes that the name of the Hon. Godfrey B. Fowler, of Jonesville, S. C., will lie favorably considered for Congress from the Fourth Congressional District. The above gentleman has proved himself worthy by liis career ia the Legislature for the last two years. We do not intend this note as an announcement, but simply desire to bring the above gentleman before the Alliances. Yours truly, Alliance Man. Mr. Fowler mar make a very good Congressman. It may be that there are a number of gentlemen in the Alliance who will fill the position creditably. "VVe have 110 objection to a man because he is a member of the organization but we think it wronj and bad policy to nominate a distinctive Alliance candidate. The author of the above letter is certainly pursuing principles contrary to those heretofore actvocaten oy me oruer. Which ? Mr. Z.J. Drake, of Marlboro, raised 254 bushels of corn on one acre, the largest yield on record. We are told that it co it $264.42 to raise this quantity of corn, or more than one dollar a bushel. It is true Mr. Drake made $900 clear on the acre, but it was owing to the premiums received that he had auy profit at all, and not to the business of raising the corn. Many farmers in the State who produced only five bushels to the acre, did better than Mr. Drake if the expense account be considered. It is well, however, that Mr. Drake made the effort, for it is now known that under the proper conditions this wonderful yield may be expected. It will pay the fertilizer companies, whose goods he used, in the war ot advertising their brands, and Mr. Drake and his "starvation empire" shall be referred to for mauv a year. But has the experiment been of auy practical benefit to the farmers? has it shown them how they may lift fKalf mnvffriifros ami nrnfMirA fhp. mm* ifilVil UiU4 ? VV Wk?? V ? ? -? | ! forts of life, end the luxuries which are so much coveted? Will it pay any other farmer to make 254 bushels of corn at a cost of over a dollar a bushel when he may buy as much as he wants at nearly half that amount? What the farmer wants to know is how he may j increase his profits and thereby increase his bank account, or if he has no bauk account how he may get one. These are the lines along which the farmer needs and desires information. This idea of offering prizes for the largest yield has been followed for a long time and has done some good, too, in the way of stimulating effort in that direction, but the plan is all wron.cr as far as ultimate results are " C"? ? concerned. In striking contrast to Mr. Drake s experience is that of our Prize Clnb where the idea is to make the largest profit or in other words the most money, for that is what the farmer wants, he doesn't care for cotton or corn which costs him more than he can bur it elsewhere. At the annual meeting of the Prize Club the reports oft :?e members showed that Mr. F. A. Kiel made a profit of $79.12 on one *cre of cotton; Mr. T. W. Raw Is made ! a profit of $154.25 011 three acres of! cotton. Mr. H. G. Wvlie made a profit of $180.01 on five acres of cotton. Mr. Neil tuade on one acre of corn 62? bnshels which C03t him $20.GO?not 33 cents per bushel, while on two acres he made 40 bushels at a cost of $11.25 or 28 cents per bnchel. Now can any body doubt jrjjieir^expcrience is the morev^ii?rt>Teto ihe farmers, that of ' ze Club or that of Mr. Drake? Oar friends of the "Wateree Prize Club experiment station are in the right direction, and we commend their 1 efforts 10 the consideration of their brother farmer?. Sutler on Hi* Exodus Bill. Senator Butler having previously informed the Senate that he would address that body on liis bill providing lor the payment of expenses of transportation of any colored person from the Southern States to any other part of the country, a large assemblage collected in the Senate Chamber to hear Ms remarks. The Bill provides an appropriation of $5,000,000 for the purpose of assisting the negro to leave. The emigrant must make application to the nearest United States Commissioner and make oath that he intends to move permanently and that it is done in good faith. When the application shall have been approved by the United States Commissioner, the quartermaster general of the army is "required to furnish the desired transportation." Senator Butler made a strong, able and dispassionate speech in support of his bill It -was made beyond tho lines of party and sections. "It is "too grave a subject to be diverted by "party considerations or confincd "within the narrow boundaries and "limits of party lines." Taking this philosophical and statesmanlike view of the subject, Senator Butler proceeded to the bottom of the rc-hnlft snliinct. discussing all of his points in a clear and forcible style. He compares the difference in the treatment of the negro, the chinaman and the* Indian. ''Cupidity brought ''the African here, cupidity inveigled the Chinaman, and cupidtiv "drove him out. The Indian was "here. He would not be reduced to "to slavery. * * * He was here ' before the white man, the African or the Mongolian." Yet he has never been given the right of citizenship. ' 'We have acted on the theory that he is "only fit to live 011 reservations to "himself under coercion." He then calls attention to the inconsistency of the Government's treatment of the races, and .urges that it's now time for all sections ana an political parties to meet on some common plane, and settle this question which affects the whole country. He argued very strongly that the prejudice was strong in the North as well as in the South. He shows this by saying in Ohio.. Pennsylvania, New York, Indiannia, Massachusetts,, Connecticut, aud Illinois, there are 343,701 negroes, and these states have the best educational fecilities in the Union, yet in spite of it a traveler through these states would never sec a negro holding a prominent position under the great corporations. Indeed they would not be sern except occassionally on the street or in the per ; formance of some menial services, i "We admit that the Senator made a j very strong effort, but even if his bill is passed and the transportation to other parts of the country takes place as contemplated by the author, it will utterly fail to solve the problem. It may remove its attendant dangers from the South- for a while, vet as a country we shall have to meet it again. It will only prolong its ultimate solution. STATE SUNDAY-SCHOOL CONTENTION Spartanburg, S. C., Jan. 19, 1S90.

Orlando, January 8.?The readers of the Times-Union will remember that in the pros dispaciies giving an account of the death of Jefferson Davis, touching incident whs describe'i of (lie fatniU servant who threw himself weeping and praying beside the couch of the dead. They will also remember the Times I'nion's editorial tribute to the old coiorevl man's fidelity, undei; the caption, "Remember Miles Cooper." His name is Mdo Cooper, and he has resided in Orlando l'or live or .?ix years. Hearing that Milo had returned to Orlando last night, the Times Union's cortespondent hunted him up this morning and had an interesting ;cbat with him, a portion ot which was as follows: "How old are you Milo?" 'I was born in the year 183'2, sir." "Were you owned by Mr. Davii?" "Yes, sir. A friend of his "rare we to him when I was about 1G, And I waited 011 him all the time." "What kind of a muster was he?"' "Me was a perfect gentleman, sir. lie was stria with u?, bat he nerer whipped us. He would talk to us when we did wrong and make us sorry, and hate to do anything to displease him. I have friends, but. lay best friend is ?one. M\ only sorrow is that I could not see him befue he died, but thank God! was able to look at him again before he was buried." "Where have you been since tbe funeral?" "I was carried fainting from hi* side to a drug store, and the doctor put ine to bed and was jast as kind as man could be. I stayed in New Orleans three days, not being able to travel and j then went 10 Mobile, where I stopped ! to visit relatives." Milo has a house and lot in East Orlando. The house has three rooms and is worth about $400. His lot is only 70x200 feet, but 18 a model of neatness and thrift. He has twentyfive varities of fruit trees, besides ornamental trees and flowers. He formerly kept a barber shop, but his skill at ornamental gardening has opened the way for employment at that business, and he is now engaged at a salary to plant and keep the ornamental grounds around the Catholic Church. His little home has a mortgage of $400 upon if, drawing 12 per cent interest, and if the kindly suggestions of the TimesUnion should result in the lifting of this encumbrance it would be a genemcit-v rcrirfhlv r>\-p. rcised. During the years that Milo Cooper has lived here he has continually remembered his old friends and ina3ter by sending fruits and mementoes, and he has quite a number of letters from Mr. Davis in acknowledgment of the same, some of which he showed your correspondent, and from which the following extracts and copies are made. They are all dated atBeauvoir, Miss. In one of October 5,1885, occur these words: k,YVe are indebted to you for kind attentions. The delicious pineapples, and, to us, very rare iruit, the fullgr?wn citron, have been received. I shall always be glad to hear of your welfare." - The iollawing is copied in full: Beauvoir, Miss.

Mrs. Davis unites with me in thanking you for them. The fibre is magnificent, and I should think they would be a valuable acquisition to this climate and inestimably valuable in Florida. Mrs. and Miss Davis and I unite in kindest regards to you, aud with best wishes, I am, with thanks, yours sincerely, Jefferson Davis. The following was penned by Mrs. Davis: Beuvoir, Miss. June 7, 1886. Both Mr. and Mrs. Davis are thankful to their friend, Milo Cooper, for the lemons and for his congratulations Mr Davis passed his 80th birthday in good health and spirits for one of his age, and is cheered by the kind spirit evinced by so many friends. Your friends, Jefferson and V. II. Davis. The following dated July 3, 1888, is in acknowledgement of an elegant orange walking cane: "The cane arrived- Please receive my thanks and the assurance that it is a valued testimonial which I shall Keep, ine peacnee were vw v uuc, and I have ordered tlie seed planted in the orchard and hope to raise some from them of better quality than those I have." The following i3 an extract from a letter of December 26.1888 : "Always rembering yon with friendly interest, my family and self have thankfully to acknowledge your kink attention in seeding to us the choice fruits o2 the season. "With renewed assurance of our cordial good wishes, I am very truly yours, Jefferson Davis." liilo says he had not seen the articles in the Times-Union concerning him, but has heard sir ce his return that the papers have spoken kind words about him, which seems to please liim very much.

Neither distance nor elevation make any difference, as either is very easily overcome by the use of this celebrated Compound Rum. These Rams are a new thiug and as far ahead of the old style as a locomutive driver is to an ox driver, as the valves are made out of the best gun metal and very heavy, and are of tremendous strenffth. and will last for years and years. Still so simple in all its parts that a way-faring man, though a fool, cannot err therein. Just think of it, and think of it well; think of the days of our forefathers, with all its primitive modes and all its awkwardness, aud the progressive age in which we live; and then think on the water of life, that instead of boring, digging and contending at enormous trouble and expense, possibly through rocks and other obstacles that can't be overcome, after enormous labor aud expense and the cheap and easy manner in which it can be had by the use of hydraulic power. Besides, if you should be successful, what have you got? Why, an old well with some bad, stagnant water at the bottom of it, that in a hot, dry time in summer becomes the headquarters, grand rendezvous and swimming bath of all mice, rats, chickens, and even 6nakes, who can alwavs succeed in finding their way in, but never in finding their way out.
