As a oonsequeno? of thee? dta turban c?a, look
u im nonunion 01 oar neignneriug County of
Laurens, whose toil U rich and fertile, and
whoso eltlaoM art nature's noblemen. The
following noeewnt of the coasequenaes of the
recent raid to Laurwns is glTon by the Htmld,
of the 12th:
" As one of the effects of the late raid Into
oar County, we have heard of an instanoe, no
less true than amusing, of a oitisen actually
plowing with a saddle on his horse, and the
fence thrown down In several places, ready
at any moment to cut and run. WhUe this
may be funny to the raiders, and ever laughable
to us, it is nevertheless a premonition of death
to the country. Nor is it surprising that eitisens
should stand thus ready to decamp, when indiscriminate
arrests have been made?without
warrants, and on the most flimsy and unreliable
testimony?on the mere aflldavit of a
negro who has been absent from the County
since 1869, and not here at the time the alleged
violence was committed ; warrants changed
by deputies to serve their purposes, from one
name to another, and unsuspeotlng persons,
conscious of their own innocence, seised and
summarily thrown into prison. Does Chief
Marshal Wallack sanction such conduct in
his deputies ? Surely not. Is there no redress?is
there no help for a people thus persecuted
and Oppressed ? 0 Itmpora ! O
more* !
" It is confidently believed that not less
than 500 eitisens have fled the County, and
possibly the State. Onr agricultural interests
nre desperately suffering, and if the present
procedure in arresting does not cease at once,
we are a ruined people. Just think of it?
500 plows, at this season of the year, stopped
and rusting in the mold ! Who are to make
bread for the women and children ? how are
thoy to live, it tho men, their natural protectore,
are all driven away ? And how, too, are
the negroes to subsist without the aid of the
white man, dependent, as they are, upon the
land owner for soil to work, stock implements,
indeed, sverytbing with which to carry on a
farm? Without the fruits of the^arth, we
must all perish, and it follows, as a matter of
course, that as the white suffers, so must the
negro. What possible advantage, then, can
accrue to our oppressors by this oppression ?
Do they seek utter annihilation?our utter
destruction, full, final and complete? It really
seems so.
" Whoever may be respcncible for violence,
let the guilty ones "be caught and punished
as their crimes may require : but must the innocent
atone for the guilty ? must wholo communities
be suspected and made to suffer for
the misdeeds of a few ? Such theory and such
practice is absurd in an enlightened age and
suited only for the darkest ages of the world."
Greenville as Viewed by Her Neighbors.
The Editor of the Spartanburg Spartan recently
passed through this City, and upon his
return home thus speaks ot Greenville. After
complimenting the Mansion Ilouse, he
says :
" Greenville is a beautiful and a real live
city, and we only wish that tho people of our
own town could be induced to show something
of the local pride and public spirit which has
built up and beautified and made Greenville
the most attractive point in the up-country.?
We found quite a number of new buildings
erected since our last visit, and learned that
real estate had greatly advanced. Our friend
Hamlin Bkattik, Esq., President of the National
Bank of Greenville, (the right man in
tbe right place) informed us that this institution
was now in complete operation with bright
prospects for the future. If it does not prove
a complete success it will not be for any lack
of skill or efficiency in the management of its
worthy President. Among tbe many friends
who gave ua a warm greeting, none seemed
more pleased to see us than the enterprising
and spirited Editor of the Mountaineer, T. A.
Baydkh, Esq. He is a splendid typo, has
first rate ability, and deserves success."
Ordination at tbe Baptist Church.
There was quite a full house in attendance
upon the ordination services oi Rev.
Edwin C. Rice, on Sunday night last, at the
Baptist Church. The sermon was preached
by Rev. "William Williams, P. D., of the
Theological Seminary, whose suitable remarks
to the occasion were ably practical
and plain, from which the audience and the
candidate for the ministry, alike, could not
fail to realize much benefit. After the sermon
and other usual ceremonies, the laying
on of hands of the presbytery took place,
and Mr. Rice was solemnly set apait to the
vrork of the gospel ministry of the Baptist
Church, in whieh Dr. J. C Fuhman, Dr. J
A. Bboadub. Da. Wm. Williams. Prof. C. H.
Toy and Re*. A. Ricv, took part. After
the rising up of the presbjtcry, a few remarks
and some excellent advice was ad
dressed to the newly-ordained minister by
Rev. A. Rice. The ceremooiea were exceedingly
solemn and interesting.
Mr. Rice will continue his studies at the
Theological Seminary in this plaee, for the
balance of this year. lie has, we learn,
been chosen pastor of the Baptist Chnrch
at Belton, in Anderson County, which position
he will supply. llis friends antioi
pate much usefulness for him.

Of course everybody knows where that

Thia gentleman died at hia reaidene* In
thia City, on yesterday evening, about fir*
o'oloek. He had been aiok for a week or
ten daya, with Pneumonia. Tb* decerned,
being a native of thi* place, waa known
universally. He waa a good and useful cit*
ixeo, in the prime of manhood, and his lose
is much regretted. He iravrs a young and
interesting family, whoas deprivation of the
protection of a kind father, is irreparable.
The funeral will taka place this(vv ednee

bs attended by the Masonic order, of which
ha waa a member.
The Palmetto Fire Company.
This Company paraded through our
streets last Friday evening, in their uniform
of red shirts and fire paraphanalia, and
truly looked like firemen. Their roll, we
believe, at preaent i? pretty full, and they
presented quite an imposing appearance as
they marched along. In all our numerous
firee here lately, they have on every occasion
been prompt to time, and the manner
in which th-y work their engine never
fails to meet with approbation. On the
turnout last Friday, the Palmettoes were
accompanied by the colored braes band, led
by Mr. Dot'anKRTT, which discoursed some
good muiio.
Messrs. Wm. Boattle A Co.
These enterprising merchants are among
the first, if not the very first, to piovide a
spring stock of goods for their City and
country customera We published their
advertisement last week, bet it reached us
too late to call especial attention to it.?
They always order full stocks of the very
best goods, embracing almost everything
needed about the house or farm The pyo
prietors and clerks have a reputation for
politeness and courtssy to all who call to
see them, and as they sell cheap for cash, it
ia really a pleasure to deal with them ?
Their rrpulatiou ia on a solid basis, and
they neper fail to please or to give value
received. Call and.aee them at once.

Mr. Editor?Dear Sir: It is said if Ignorance
is bliw, 'tis lolly to be wise; but
if ignoraoee coats money, it is best to be
posted. So I would beg permission to seek
through^ your p?per s little information.-?
We, of this Township, were called on a few
days ago to pay a tax for repairing roads.?
We ore called out regularly at staled t'mes
to work the roads, and now we are taxed
also for the same object. We are told that
thia is done by order of the County Commissioners.
We are informed also that neither
Greenville nor Grove Townships have paid
this tax. Please let as know if every little
office holder in the Conuty has a right to
tax the people at his discretion. Also, if
any but a Legislative body has a right to
tax the people of South Carolina. Also, if
the honorable Legislature has not shown
itself fully capable of taxing, without assistance.
In a word. Mr. Editor, please let us
know if the County Commissioners had a
right to levy thia tax, or it we have been
imposed npon. Respectfully, Ac.,
A CITIZEN OF FAIRVIEW.

" Mabel Arc." A new novel, just issued by
a lady of Ilillsboro, N. C.?The rtyle is flowing,
easy and vivid ; it compares favorably
with any work of the present age. Those
fond of romance, cannot tail to be deeply interested
; it tells plainly what pure genuine
love can do, and you will at once admire the
characters of" Phillip Conway," and " Mabel
Loe," while you will hold in contempt that of
" Ainslie," and yet, you will be sorry for the
poor, vain, unfortunate man. It is indeed a
very clover story, and comes home to us, as
the parties were all in South Carolina.

' having occupied the chair of practice in tt'e t

Jefferson collage of Philadelphia, and in
each his scientific reputation increased with
L his service, while his social virtues eonlinu* [
