among the working men of the North about

km been held by them denouncing the introduction
of Chinese labor. Wilson, of
Massachusetts, has started a bill to prevent
persons from bringing In Chinese into the
United States under labor contracts, thus interfering
with ths llbei ties of citizens,as well
as ths liberties of the Chinese. There Is no
possible right violated by engaging a man
in China or any whore else to some here and
work fur a certain number of years or
mooths for a stipulated price, do more lhao
there in to engaging in England or elsewhere
a man to come and superintend a factory,
or to come and teach a school for a
certain lime. If you may engage in a foreign
country a single mac to labor in any
employment, why not forty or forty thousand
at the a* me time in f!htna or ?tiu
where else?
The North Adams while workmen held
their meeting and have protested against
the Chinese coming, but they can't stop
them. If New England capitalists find it
profitable, and it seems they now think so,
they will fill up their workshops with these
copper ce'wiiu SitR. The New England
workmen are the last people that ought to
complain, they have been voting fiercely for
the 15th Amendment and all measures to
do away with all distinction of race and
color. By the 15th Amendment, their great
favorite measnre, they have laid their own
section of country, as well as others, at the
mercy of heathens and colored men from
Asia and the rest of tha world ; have practically
invited them to ccme over and take
possession of the work shops, and ultimate*
ly the voting power of the country in any
locality or in the United States generally,
so that it ia not impraeticabU that tbs
country may get Into the power of th*ee
creatures and the cunning men who will
wield their votea. Massachusetts workmen
ought to rejoice that their pet achemoa of
perfect equality is being carried out right
early before their eyes. Party madness
alone could have dictated llio 15th Amend*
mem, uui ii is aone. Let me Chinese re*
juice, and all heathendom.
Infallibility of the Pope.
The Romish Council, now in session, it is
supposed, will undoubtedly adopt the dog*
ma that the Pope is infallible. Although
there are many of the members of the
Council opposed to it, like true Calho1ics(
they will of course aequiese after it is
adopted. The world looks on in wonder,
that, in this advanced age of ftee discus
sion, and when so many of the pretensions
of Popery have been exposed, that this
greatest of human absurdities should find
favor with even any Roman Catholic. It is
supported, however, by many learned men,
and a great majority of the Papal Church
in the earth. They inelst on having a god
man to hear and obey in all spiritual mats
leva, and in repudiating their own private
judgments, although there may be thousanda
upon thousanda of aa much, and mor^detv,
aense and knowledge, than the Chlw Pontiff.
One thinjr is to be remarked, how
ever, that the membeie 01 the Romish
Church, in such countries as Spain, Mexico
and South America, and the more UDenlightened
provinces of Europe, are most
blindly devoted to the authority of the
Tope. That learned men are so likewise,
proves nothing. The learned among the
Jews, as a general rule, rejected Christ
himself and His teachings when lie was
bodily on earth?it is no wonder that men
of the same passions and spirit, will reject
the authority of His inspired Word as a
guide of the people, and interpose their
traditions, like the Pharisees of old, to
make void the Word of God. In those
days the great struggle of learned ritualists
was to keep the masses of the people from
hearing the sermons of Jetus, orally deliv*
ereJ, their successors would keep, if they
could?and as has been their wont?the
written Word from the masses, and substitute
priestly mummeries, and rites, and.
traditions, and authority in its place.
The Romish Priests are even now preach
ing of Papal Infallibility in the United
Htates where they have an open field, and
perfect toleration This toleration and
liberty is rlgbt, perfectly right, and every
enlightened Christian and citizen will freely
aeeord it to them; but there ie one thing
to be regretted?there is no secular paper
in the srreat cities th??
the New York Herald, that, whilst they
notice such sermons and lectures, generally,
in a most complimentary stylo* ever hinti
one word of objection to the absurd doctrines
that the Priests advocate, and which
hare so long enslaved the minds of men,
and which the editors all the lime heartily
disbelieve and deepUe. But Roman Catho
lies are a power !o the large elties, tbatji
takes a power, like the Herald, to disregard

reports, which lie made to the citizens
last Saturday evening. The Road will
be located by Greenville, and the work is

to lenrn that General Easlkt is elected a
Director, also Gadrikl Cannon, of Spartanburg.
Two better selections could not havs

Benefits of Railroads.
The admirable and deeply inlersstinj
article of II. P. IIammevt, late President u
the Greenville & Columbia Railroad, whirl
appeared in laat week's Entrrprite, giving
en account ot the excursion which he en
joyed over the Railroads of Pennsylvania
must have impressed all who read it, witl
the manifold advantages of railroads to al
sections. The facts stated In that arti?h
alone, would be, to all intelligent minds
conclusive as to the wisdom of this uppei
country of South Carolina endeavoring tt
secure the Air-Line Railroad and other
hereafter. We must got over the mountain
from Greenville, and then we Bhall begli

The Sassafras Gap is a lew gap, and offers a

the mountaineers, who are best acquainted

Resignation of Hon. R. B. Carpen- '
ter- ,
Oo Friday morning, in accordance with a t
call which appeared in the papers, the t
member* of Ih* Bar assembled in the Equity ?
Court Room. A fler transacting iom? Luai c
neea, Judge Carpenter resigned bis position ^
as Circuit Judge. In doing so, be spoke ?
witb evident emotion, and was listened to
8
witb deep sympathy by the whole assem- ^
bled Bar. As he left his seat, every m?m
ber arose aud stood until be bad left the '
room. He said : ( .
Gentlemen of the Bar of Charletton : J j
have frequently bad occasion to adress my |
fellow citizens upon various subjects, and ,
very often I have felt that words were poor
channels to express the emotions ol the
heart. But never has their utter inadequacy
been more thoroughly realized than to
day.
Somewhat more limn three years ago I
came to the city of Charleston?a stranger
?and less than two years eince took my
seat upon this bench ns the Judge of this
Circuit. I entered upon its duties with dia
trust. Events then recent, had so changed
the condition of ofTnirs?legal os well as
political?that no one knew where the old
law ended, or the new law began; and,
moreover, I was unfamiliar with the local
statutes and practice of South Corolina.
Nevertheless I brought to the discharge
of 1113* duties upon the bench, an energetic
pit-pose to Inbor faithfully and honestly in
it.. .IS... I... ~r (.. J _n;? .
VIIC UIOVIIIX gn Ui I IIC UUIICQ *?l IHJT UHICB ,
such a labor a* the true ends of justice required.
Beyond that, p? rhnps, I bad very
few otber qualifications. And if 1 have had
mme little success, it is due in a very great
measure, to the fairness and integrity of the
Charleston Bar. They never attempted to
deceive me. They no\cr stst?d that to be
law which they did not believe to be law,
and uniformly upon the bench, I hove been
treated with kindness, consideration and
respect.
After seeing something of the storms of
life in other spheres, the judical office, although
a position of labor, was one of com
pnrntive quiet. My mind had but to sock for
truth, far away Ircm the conflicts of public
life.
Now, I see before me the billows raging
higher than ever, and the storm more
threatening, yet an Imperative sense of duty
compels me to leave a position where all
my relations have been kind, and all my
associations have been of a character to
which I can recur with no other than
grateful feelings. Whatever may be my
future destiny in the providence of God, I
shall not forget them, but to Iho last hour
of my life shall chorish the sympathy which
1 feci has been engendered during my occupancy
of the bench. I now, gentlemen of the
t>ar, respectfully and affectionately, with
every wish for your happiness and prosperity,
collectively an-1 individually, bid you
a final farewell.

in this agricultural exhibit is the fact
that the South haa been blessed to an unexampled

in Tennessee,

The colored pecple are organizing in every
County. Let separate organizations o
whites be formed Wc maintain tliatsepar
ate organizations would be best A mixe<
organization would ba distasteful, and
by proper discipline on the pait of the com
'panics, white and co'oreJ, no collision
need occur. We b arn that the State au

pnt any obstructions in the way of separata

it I lie duty of the whites Ui form volunteei
military companies. It is their right so t<
do, and if so disposed, they are entitled ti

connected with the subject, it is the duty ol
the good citizens to make sacrifices for the
public good. The tactics now used is tht

Health's Best Defence
" The weak eateth herbs," says St. Paul,
so that eighteen hundred years ago the value
of medicinal plants was appreciated. In the
Old Testament botanical remedies are repeatedly
recommended, but in no passage of sacrod
history is man recommended to swallow
calomel, or blue pills, or any other mineral
preparation. The sick were directed to eat
herbs to strengthen them, to purify them,
to heal them, to restore them. In that day
tbo art of making vegetable extracts was unknown.
The herbal medicines were mere Infusions.
It was reserved for a latter age to unite the
sanitary essenoea of tonic, aperient and antibilious
roots, barks, and plants, with an so
live stimulant, and thus secure tbeir rapid
diffusion through the diblitated or disordod
system. The crowning triumph of this effcctivo
mode of concentrating and applying the vlr.
tues of medicinal vegetables was achievod in
tbo production of liOSTBTTER'S STOMACH
BITTERS. Never before bad a per
foctiy pure alcoholic stimulont been combined
with the expressed juices of tbo finest specifics
of the vegetable kingdom. Nevor yet,
though eighteen yoars have elapsed since its
introduction, has this great restorative been
equalled. It is taken at all seasons, in all climes,
ns mo moil poieni sale-guard again at epidemics,
as a protection against all unhealthy exhalation*
that produce debility or beget disease
; as a rotnody for intermittent and other
malarious fevers; as an appetiser; as a sovereign
euro for dyspepsia ; as a general tonie ami
invigorant; as a gentle, painless aperient; as
a blood depurcnt; as a nervine ; as a cure for
billtous affections; as a harmless anodyne;
and as the beet defence of health under unfavorable
circumstances, such as sedentary pursuits,
undue bodily or mental exertion, hardship,
privation and cxposuro. 7-4
