October 10. : : : 18i:4 Miss E.vilyx Rosborougii, of \Voodwards, as County Secretary of the Uhautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle, requests us to use our iuilucnce to interest the literary people of the county in the work. She says in her note to us chat she ha* iece;?tlv re-1 turned from a visit to Chautauqua "greatly enthused" and she can recomra3nu the course to any one desiring a systematic and interest ng course of reading We gladly onsent to do all .in our power to stimulate the literary taste and interest of our people, and have more than once called attention to the lack of some such org-tniz.tion as "a circle'' in Wiimsboro. We have several timjs examined the courses, and they are, as Miss Rosborough says, interesting. They are calculated to do any amount of good by pursuing them because they are arranged with some system, and subjects are taken up by the reader in some logical order. It is a very inexpensive system; it gives nn nnnorhnnifcv of readiUfiT the best thought of the best thinkers selected for you by some of the best, scholars. Such a course of reading can be done at home, surrounding the home with an atmosphere of culture and refinement. We hope that some one interested will communicate with . Miss Eosborough, and a circle can be / organized in Winnsboro and in every part of the county. In a few years, it would hare a very perceptible eflect on the whole county. < THE MOTHER'S DUTY * ? wirrro 1>I A-LiU-fc. -U. ?> To keep one's mind on tbe weary round of household tasks all day long is ruinous to the temper, and more wearing to the health than any amount of bodily labor. The. Chautaqua course of reading comes to your very door ^SiosHnyltirig paths they are in which to tread, bringing a boundless store of information aud leading you to look up into the blue heavens and down into the depths of the sea and out into God's world about von. When once 1 n ? IV!. one becomes lmerusieu m ujis ui any similar coarse of reading, the question, "Is life worth living?" answers itself. To those who object that all this tak^s time I wouid reply, so does everything that is worth doing at all. Yet when wc really desire to accomplish anything, can we not always make or take the time to do it? A housewife and mother can, if she will, do all her pwu work, be dressmaker and seamstress, and send the boys to school, and sew on the father's" buttons, and yet not suffer her mind to rust; can keep up her music, attend lectures, belong to a magazine club, and feel herself up with the times and as useful as anybody; maybe she can even join a grange and be a valuable working member. Of course do all this some things must be given up; but to gain such a reward is worth the sacrafice of even several pies a week, or some other as great deprivation; nor will the farmer's family be the worse for it. Is it not impossible to write or read while dinner is cooking, and niavbe the essay will gain spice from the very surroundings. Singing and cashing of dishes go well togeiner, and the former will neutralize the discouragement produced by the sight of a large number of the latter wailing to be attended to. A woman's ingenuity will compass almost anything she may xir.dertake. I have in mind a sittingroom in one corner of which stands the sewing-machine, in another the organ, and in a third an old secretary, "T at which the mistress of the house has passed many happy momeuts when not making music on either of the other two instruments, both of which show signs of daily use. To combine "? 0Al^_nnIfnvA nAf JQOUSe W VI K Willi. 0511-1/ UHUlb viww uvv take much time, nor much money, nor a teacher. It only requires love of / knowledge and a determination to acquire it. All the i-cst will come of it self. And now, if the question arises, whit effect will all this have upon the boys? hear the answer, tried and tested by actual experience. The home is the child's first school, and upon the atmosphere which surrounds him from infancy depends his future usefulness. This is true no less of his mental than of his moral character. In the homes of many fanners there is almos-t absolutely no reading mat'er, unless the local paper may be termed such, and during the few hours spent in the school-room it is impossible for the teacher to counteract that dampening, depressing, narrowing influence which throws a wet blauket on the mind and keeps the boy stupid in spite of him~ self. But let him feel that all at home are interested in his progress, that father Knows wuere nu is m uruuumuu and is ready to help him with a hard example, and mother is just ahead of him in history and can tell him the date which he has forgetten, and ten times out of a dozen he will take to his books without urging, and absorb knowledge without knowing it.. If mamma writes at a desk in one corner, little Johnny will tease for a desk in the other, and wi 1 want pencils and paper and all complete, and, almost before going to any school at all, will have acquired the rudiments of a good education, and also a taste for hooks which will go with him through life, will keep him out of bad company, will show him a profitable manner in which to spend his evenings, and help him in a thousand ways. So mothers, if you wish to throw arouud your children a safeguard which shall introduce them into cultured society, and protect them from evil, do your best to make the home &5? pb* atmo?pbcre favorable to ih?ir mental develonment. and such as shall en - -A - ? - , coarage habits of reading and study. And to this end, make the most of yourselves. Head, read, read anything rather than nothing; but, best of all, "adopt some systematic course, what ever commends itself to \onr judgment, and, depend up ?n it, not only the boys and girls, but father h'mself, will fall into line and verily you shall reap your own reward.?

Custom House Officer Wants No ''Old Clothes"?Hotel * Custom?Dogs and Women as Beasts of Burden?Beds Made ! by Codio Measure?Becoming a Citizen | ?Learning Music at the Fountain Head. Dear EdUor: Cuxhaven was the port at which the Steamer Augusta Victoria lay over 011 31st of August previous to the transfer, 011 the next morning to a smaller steamer, which in a few minutes brought Ik- to the wharf. The dreaded examination of passports and inspection of trunks amid a foreign jargou was bewildering. In the beginning there was pretty rough handling of the contents. But our trunks were about the last iuspected and the officers were evidentlv fatigued with o . the thousand packages they had opened. They looked in my tray and said "Have you any new clothes?" I re*plied "nothing but old", and he slammed it down aud left me to buckle it up. One of our satch els had a pair of knit-room slippers in it?these were suspiciously examined and the only article disturbed?doubtless expecting to find precious stones in the toes. We spent 21 hours in Hamburg very pleasantly with our steamer party of six, at the Dclv.dere Hof?where the universal foreign sys em of lodgings ani restaurant prevails, paying only for what you order. Eating intelligently required iuterpretaion and fortunately for us, some of the party coaid talk German. Thr> Fiof is bnantifuliy located in view of the River Alster which winds through the city, and one of its fea- . tures are hundreds of swans floating on i:s bosom. The streets were a strange sight to us with its foreign people and new. We were immediately taken to a Ivafc to see the order, cf coffee and beer drinking?frequent- f ed by men and womeu. We had the; good fortune to hear "Wagner's great i opera of Tauuh&user performed the' night of September 1st in one of the largest and most beautiful opera houses in Hamburg. One of the stiange and attractive bights in this quaint old city were the Peasant women in costume, selling fllowers. They are as characteristic in ; build as in dress. They are human i Pei cherons?their hips enormous and corresponding proportions all over. I am sure that it must require 12 widths 1 in their skirts to get the fulness neces- { .. ?

A long full white white apron, a black ' boiice over a short sleeved full waist i in fancy colors, makes a picturesque , costume. The white cap which U al- j ways worn is like a three-cornered; handkerchief b?und tight across the j forehead and pinned behind the ears ' and with a huge paper bow wiih ends, i completes this peculiar dressing. i Dogs are one of the beasis of bur-1 then here. They are harneacoti u> -my lAvgc tand=Cgrt5Tor"baggage and i other commodities?a man with a strap j over one shoulder helping the dog to j pull. Women of the lower cla-s are also beasts of burdlhen and the above j mentioned Peasants have a yoke over i their necks with projecting Tods on which baskets or packages are hung. The women also carry immense bags on their backs filled with plunder of various kinds. We saw an i lectric can-i.-ige rolling ! down the street with paoeugers. Wo nroro whisked orer tlie Berlin bound cars in four hours?about 40 miles an hour. There are three classes of passeuger cars?1st, 2nd, 3rd,?not presuming to Royalty we took second class and found it better than our or dinary coaches. The cars here are divided into compartments running across the car and each hold six persons. Some of our pussen^ers went in the 3d class and found it equally good, although there was a difference in prices. We had an excellent dinner served on these cars. We were quar:ered in Berlin at the handsome Central Hof, situated in the central business part. It is on^ of the few hotels where English is spoken. The surroundings, service and entertainment at this hof was all first class and cost about half what we pay in New York Lodgings & Restaurant system. There are only four elevators in Berlin and the one at this hotel, called a lift, carried us up three flights, but so slowly that one could have written a book while going up. The Germans are afraid of these lifts and do not patronize them much. Mr. Abell spent ten days house hunting. By city regulation houses cannot Ko liniif mm-p than fire stories and vou may immagine, the "getting up stairs" in the numbers of flats and pensions he visited in this time. Fortunately we are located now in the second story on a beautiful and quiet street only o.ie square and a half from Bartk's music rr-oms. The beds here have afforded us much amusement. The bedsteads are single. Two feet, 10 inc'ies by 5 feet by 10 and yo may immagine the comfort of a six-footer, on l stretch, in one. The mattress is stationary, prenerally stocked with fleas?regular German grenadiers?a wedge shaped pillow hard as a log is the head, a thin feather bed is laid on and a scant sheet covers this. rr'1- ~ ; J a liorl-if rcoicrhf- -foaf hpt* J- lie IIUUUCV-IW V uniiguv , bed encased in a double sheet bag laced up with a heavy cord whose tassle is no doubt infndod as a. nose tickler.' One large square pillow with a few j feathers is allowed. After one week'.experience with this feather bed on top, we find it vury essential. At first the feathers acci iriulatc in chunk* and one is kept on the alert to manage it. The proper management is to pat it frequently during the n:ght and d spo?e of it as a punier. The white pcrcelain stoves which decorates each room, look like tombstones. They are three feet by two square and nine or ten feet high. One can safely sit on one without being too warm. They are said to give out heat in an inverse proportion to their height. Brown coal in bricks wood. which is plentiful and peat are used 111 them and you are charged by the scuttle full The hard wood floors are in beautiful patterns and often waxed and carefully wiped daily with woolen mops, lings are laiid on this floor but the rooms are very cold. The ceilings are all very high and beautifully decorated. We were forewarned in regard to a visit from the police. After we got finally settled, we were honored with three visits. Our passports were demanded?I had none, and I mention it as information, that I have to bny one forthwith. I wr.s told in New "York that as I was a w idow it wasnot necessary to get one. The papers served had the following: items to be answered: Our 11 imes in fall?no abreviations permitted?our religion, our present and past business, our ancestors, ages, l? .me. where we resided i re viou>ly and where our ancestors came j from, oar maiden name and our fathers birth pNce!

Barth (pron Bart) our music professor, is tbc greatest instructor in Germany and he is considered by many the finest teacher in Europe. He is the only pianist whose technique has equalled that of the late distinguished Kullak Barth, has given two private recitals to his pupils since we came, p aying some twenty pieces at each one?showing his extraordinary memory and extraordinary command of the instrument. In appearance he is an athlete, with a gentle, polished mannse, which did not however conduce to the equanimity of the young Article who had to play to him! She was very naturally frightened, in such august presence, and tried to excuse herself, by attributing any faults in the execution to the peculiarly hard action of his instrument. Barth quietly remarked, "When a man says he can ride horseback, he ought to be able to ride any horse." Nevertheless the fright i< over and the pupils a-e mi'iii i he dliiLifv' of fhfi luiyico^u tv mi teacher. Barth is said to be especially fond of Americans and speaks English well, which is a <n*eat advantage to Engli-h scholars. His pupils are from all parts of the world. The regular opera season does not open uutil October 15th. We attended and heard at the King's Opera House last week Verde's latest opera Falstaff. It was Shakespeares Merry Wives of Windsor and the music very Wagnerian. A lovely representation in Pantomine?our language of the carnival wound up the evening with pleasure and gaity. Ilere the curtain rises promptly at 7 o'clock. No bonnets or cloaks are worn in the auditorium, there being a cloak room where everything of this kind is de posite l and checked for. The dressing of the audience was very simple and no attempt at display of auy sort. Everybody preserved perfect quiet aud no applause was given until the act < was e.ded.

To the Negro Voters of Fairjisld County: ; Fellow Voters-1 have no other excuse to offer for writing ;his appeal thai: the apprehension I now justly entertain that the mass ?>t \?u are really ignorout jis to the approaching crisis I now hoveling over the political arena of South Carolina, which not only threatens but really .means t ? deprive i yon of \onr light to cast \our uauois for the men who shall irovern you and 1 thi> State for more than an hundred ! years to come. Far be it from me to rai<eanv exe'tement among von in^o^:"gfards ;he~ 'coinThg election, or to cause \onr minds :o revert to that ' shameful and to-be-regretted, policy of ; "radical rnle" and "carpet bag" regime which, posing as a republican party, governed this State prior to '71, with which many ot yon allied your- ( selves, but as a taxpayer and citizen of i South Carolina, I have the right to peaceably communicate the ritual ion 1 to you when 1 see that \oa are about i i>n < !jnric(>d of tour franchise un knowingly.

I charge that our leaders are either ig.:orant% s'othful, unaware of the gravity of the situa- J ti >n, or, I was about to say, in a colln- i sion, or you would have bceu called to 1 at: i ?n weeks ago to consider which 1 i way you shoul i v?!e o.i this all-ab- , pot bing qnes'i ? -a eon-titntional con- i vcii!ion. Do jou know that Governor 1 Tillman an l Governor-elect Evans j i.fhrt i.ii'tpp nnmi thp 1I*VC ogMuiv.. ...v, I , slump through ut He Mile, that there j miut be r? coiiautuu .mil convention in this State before the n*>xt two years? I heard Governor Tillman say at a 1 campaign meeting two years ago that ! lie wanted a constitntional convention, aud one of the principal purposes was J to make a property*anJ educational 1 qualification lor voters, which would ' no doubt disfranchise one hundred * thousand negroes, as was done in Mis- ! sissippi a lew years ago, where more ' than the above number of negroes are ' now disfranchised. Governor-elect ! Evans has openly declared against the j two mills school tax, so far as the ! negro tchool is concerned, which will j strike a fearfnl b ow at our free school ' system, which now seems to be the ] only source to make the negro an hon- J est, intelligent and industrious Ameri- 1 citizen that he ousrhttobe. Yet if he trebles the poll faxG9 and gives I the benefit of what we pay, we con easilv submit. But to the point: The constitution ' of this State "says, every male citizen twenty-one years of age and upward not being: under certain disabilities? 1 having been convicted of felonious * crimes, arson, murder, rape, etc.?and being duly registered shall vote in any 1 general election. ' But my impression is that the consti- ' tuiional convention will make this section read thus: Any male citizen twenty-one years of a?e, etc., that can read ' and write a legible hand, and owns 5 one thousand dollars injhis own right aud title can vote, etc. With such qualifications upon the voters of this State, how many negroes would be for- j ever debarred from voting? Think of it. Out of one hundred and thirty thousand i egro vote? in the State one hundred ihousftud w<>nld be cut off entirely?not tr./iii paving taxes, but from eavirff who s-hou-d oe supported by your taxes to nilj over you. If vim have et'O'ijdh property, but unable j irom no fault of \our own to read a<id ' write, or where tuousands can do the j latter, but are po-r, you are told to go } and eurich yourself a thousand dollars ( before yoc can vote. Think of a gov- ' ernmeiit that will drive you from the voting polls because you are a poor man, and then arrest you and make you pay taxus for its support because vou are a citizen! The only consolation a negro can find in this proposed plan is the word "color' will be left out; so any poor white man can draw the inference. I tear my abhorrence for the plan has run off "with my reasons. Why does the negro want to vote? Is not ibis a white man's country and government?
