\Ve were much gratified in seeing in' the
Courier a report of the epeech of Gen. Wnirrgt
anl T.x IIurlbt. wherein they^aseall
without glovoe the State offloials who here
r in vp the doht of the State so many millions
without any equivalent ty the people. Whifvr.n
take the ground squarely and honestly |
thst the Legislature should forget to appropri
ate money or 10 lovy tax** to pay the interest
on tiie State debt. He says truly that itjnccds
no act of repudiation. Thia noblo utterance is
all the more gratifying tbat it cotnca from one
of the ablest of the Republican members of
the Legislature, and he a colored man. It
shows tbat although he camo from another
State, that ho ia no carpel bagger como here
to 111 his pockets and then slope , but that ho
feels himself identified with the people of the ,
State and means to remain } hence ho means
that the people of all classes shall nqt bo
crushed to death with a load of taxation to
pay the interest en these debts, which bavo
never benefitted his constituents and tho people
at large, but only the ' official^ ring, that
crushed them to enrich themselves. I-orJony p
Legislature to attompt to uphold there State
debts, it would be tho same thing us to become
accessory to robbery after tho fact, and it j
will not be attempted by. any Intolligoot' and
honest legislator.
Wo rcjoioo to sec also that Wjiittkmoixe a id
Bowev, Loth oulo Congressional repreicn' >
lives of this State, and various other prominent
republicans, are taking a strong stand
against " tho ring." Wo are only tho more
interested in tho cause of Wiiippkh and his
colored associate, beeauss that element is 1 in
a tnnjorify in the State, and it shows thnt the
fears of some that tho lcndeqi of the colored
people might be bribed to support tlie ring, f
arc so far at least without just grounds. Tt c
will be a perpetual honor to the colored pco- t
pie, and establish the strongest confidence be- j
tiveen them and the white# if they sliull main- j
tain the stand Ukon by their ^prominent men j
who .have lately spoken "and written on tho; f
debt of tho State. They are now disposed to ;
throw o(T tho Inndt that, tho Stnto officials 1
have forged for their and all our hands. If ^
they do this as indicated, it will do more than
anything .they can do to vindiento.their claim
to political rights and equality. Their best
Republican friends every where expect and 3
hope they will not sustain the ring.

The painful news of the suicide of C-'.
Asiimokk was received last week. lie put v
an end to his life l>y shooting himself in n
the head willi a pistol, at Sardis, Missis* |
sippi, on the 5th December iost. Ko par* ^
ticulur explanations have been given n?
yet. A bright Intellect aud fiery energies
were the characteristics of Col. Asuuoat:.?
lie was a native of Grcenvi'le Disti ic* *,
his parenta long resided only a few miles
south of this place. lie early went to
Sumptcr county, married there, was elected
to the Legislature, afterwards removed to
Anderson, became a candidate for Congress
nfler Judge Dan's retirement, was o?s:ly
elected, (his electioneering abilities was
surpassing,) and serve! two terms, and was
holding his seat at the time the s? cession
movement began. Allor the war, Col. AsuMor.r:
moved lo Greenville, and was here a
merchant a shoit tins?, then moved to Mis. i
s:**ippi, where he now hud9 Ins last resting
place.
His career of life began brightly and
promising to himself, bis family aud conn- 1
try. The excitements and disappointments
of the war aggravated his tendeney to
ioteinpernnee, ana doubtless this cause has
ha 1 its influence in the final catastrophe,
the news of which will shock many old
friends and former admirers in this part 1
of the State. Tiny will sincerely sympathise
with hU immediate family and relatives
in the sad e-.en'?

A Visit to Abbovillo County.
Wo pnid a Lrict visit to the New Market
neighborhood of Abbovillo last week, and wero
pleased to find that the crops havo been fair
tliis year. In our opinion three-fourths of a
cotton Crop will be realised. There is some
improvement going on in the district. More
a'cam saw mills and grist mills than before
the w:ir, nnd'whst seems entirely a new thing,
steam power is introduced to gin cotton, a
great saving of mule property, and labor of
hand*. Returning Saturday, we found that our
host, Mr. Guvmi'II, at Cokcubtiry, was well
patronized at the dinner house, as he deserves
to bo. Mr. MoOh?k's breakfast house at I!cltoo,
is fatuous for its good faro, nod Mr. '
(iLVMrn'a dinner house at Hodge's Depot, are
equal in tbe way of good catiug.
The number sf railroad passengers is considerable,
and tho freight business is prospering
on the Greenville and Columbia llailroud
likewise.

this year has been good, and there is no rc?son

or Charleston. Wo noticed some timo ago

uud unuuiinously responded to by tbe mooting
t
It liii* pleased Almighty Ood in Hi* wise
Providence, to remove o?t ot this world, the
roul el our beloved Bishop, tbo Higbt itov.
i'hos. Franklin Davis, L>. D., the Chief Shepherd
of the PrO'Mtant Episcopal Church in
the Diocese of South Caro'iiid.
lie died suddenly at his homo in Camden,
in Saturday, tho 2d of December, 1811. For
inore than eighteen year* he has been a liisliop
to the flock oi Christ, "serving the Lord with
ill humility of mind," having lived "soberly,
righteously, and tlod'y in this present v orld," 1
sud shown himself " in till thiugs an cxnmplo
of good works unto others."
It b'as been his work to cans for tho Churches
; to testify tho Gospel ot tho Urnco of
Uod; t> welcome ami admit to tho Lord's Table,
by the solemn rito of confirmation, those
wli" wero minded to follow hiin, ns he followed
Christ ; to approvo u:id ordain Ministers for
lliu work of hi* Lord; to guard tho purity ot
Ihe doc.rino of Christ in his Church ; and to
reprove, rcbuko and exhort his brethren, a* a
[at her in the household of faith.
In tho discharge <>f these sacred duties, our
?ond Bishop lis* faithfully " labored ? > set
orwaid among all uieu, love, peace, an:1,
[riitli.
His zenl was so guided by a Godly learning,
>o tempered by love, and so consecrated I y
ho holy spirit of devotion to Christ, that ho |
,v a s "always ready to show himself gentle
?nd mrrciful fur Christ's pake."
lie honored nil of his brethren who served
Christ, and drew thorn around hitn in much
vntfPleneo, affection and respect, and so ho
inited them to one another, us with him tltoy
wcrc united in lliu holy bond of ouu fuitb to a
sommon Lord and Saviour.
For tho greater part of his Episcopate, it
ilcuscd God that ho should do Lis work in
ilsysicul blindness, and in much bodily nfllic
inn.
We ran all testify how none of theso thing*
novc<) him. neither eo'titod ho his life (tear
ihtntilmklf, thnt ho might finish his course
vith joy, nnd the'ministry which he lnnl re
tcived of tho Lord Jesus. Jlo it therefore
Iic?'itccii, That the congregation of Christ

tie in ory anil work of our departed l!iab"p.
That ito recognise in his life, and his work,
he beauty of holiness, rind tho excellency of
he knowledge of Jesus Christ our saviour.
That we mourn with tho fntnily of our
lishop, their great sorrow, nnd assure them of
>ur prayers, that Cod would undue their Souls
rith patience, under their uflliction nnd with
rsignntlcn to His blessed will; giving them
lie ecru fort of a sense of Ilia goodncs nnd of
ho eternal re: l which llo has prepared for
lioso " who die in the Lord."
That the Rector bo Ver^nestcd to give pub*
