J. R. NORRIS.
COL. It. M. M1TCHEL.
This great financier and Railroad
official, has completed the ▲. G. & S.
B. R., and is steadily pushing the work
oo the A* E. A N. R. R., and in a few
months trains will be running between
Augusta, Ga., and Newberry, S. C.
Col. Mitchel is one of the shewdest
railroad officials of our country. It
was a sad mistake that the Directors of
the C. C. C. A G- R. R-. did not eleot
Col. Mitchel President of their road
four years ago. We would have ere
this time had one of the greatest roads
of the Country. Col. Mitchel pushes
to completion all of his undertakings,
and will before a great while, be the
Railroad King.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, Jan., 28.
The United States Senate has done
at least two notable things this week.
It has given the Brittish Lion’s tail a
vicieus twist, and it has again refused
to give the woman who waut to vote
a change to submit the Constitutional
amendment on Woman Suffrage to the
ito Legislatures.
It is interesting to be reminded now
American
then that
Eagle i
furnished
ample
proof of this. The occasion was debate
on the bill empowering the President
to close the ports of the United States
against Canadian inports, as a meas
ure of i etaliation, in case Great Brit
ain persists in violating her treaty ob
ligations by subjecting American fish
ermen to indignities and outrages in
in Canadian waters.
Senator Ingalls thought it was time
to settle the fishery difficulties either
by negotiation or by war. The meas
ure under discussion was distinctly one
of retaliation. It was an eye for an
eye, a fish for a fish, an insult for an
iusult. Countries had been inundated
with blood on less provocation.
Senator Ei ye declared that the an-
bals of history—even of the Fija Is
lands—might be searched without find
ing cases of outrages so brutal and in
humane. All these cases, he said, had
been brought to the attention of tlie
Brittish Government. There was net
a line in the history of England for
the last 300 years that gave the slight
est reason to believe that in the pur
suit of gain, in the pursuit of trade,
she would ever permit the right of an
other to stand in the way of her pro-
gie is. Senator Morgan thought the
law could be enacted without blood
thisty threats, and Sonator Vest advis
ed cantion.
When the caues of woman came up
in the Senate on Tuesday, there were
abont a hundred ladies from all parts
of the country—leaders in the woman
suffrage movement—in the Senate gal
lery anxiously awaiting ths result.
Blair, of New Hamshire, wo-
•e best. friend, had premised to
Make an sffertto get the question up
fbr debate at this hour. The pet meas-.
nre of several Senators were in the
way as unfixed business, but- they gal
lantly voted against their own bills in
favor of the ladies. Senator Beck was
one of these. He had intended to
bring up this preventing Members ,of
Congress from acting as attorneys for
railroads, and he mentioned that a dis
tinguished lady (Miss Anthony) had
sent in for him three times the. day
try
hSk
the proposed amendment was again
rejected. The disappointed ladies in
the gallery repaired immediately to the
Metropolitan Church, where they open
ed their nineteenth annual convention
in Washington. There they discussed
man in general and the lawmakers of
the United States in particular in lan
guage suitable to their outraged feel
ings.
It was sad to see Miss Anthony, that
grim resolute veteran of woman’s fight
for woman, just a little discouraged.
After waiting and working so hard for
forty years, she acknowledged that the
promised land seemed yet a long way
off. She knew that woman must have
all her rights in time, bnt there was no
telling liow long she would have to wait.
Mrs. Shattuck, of Massachusetts,
who is a fine speaker with a fine voice,
thinks it will be at least twenty years
before all the women of the United
States will be able to vote. She divides
the women who do not want to vole in
to six classes: First, the prejudiced;
second, the uninformed; third, those
who are afraid of their gentleman
friends; fourth, those who always shirk
their duties; fifth, those who shirk from
new duties because they fear their in
ability to perform them well, and sixth,
thoso who fear the influence of the bal
lot on immoral classes of woman, and
who think there is too much voting al
ready.
She gave an eloquent account of
the good women are doing in temper
ance, in labor unions, in lifting up the
degraded everywhere, and closed her
speech by an earnest appoal directly
to her audience, to enlist under th©
banner of those who ask for the ballot.
BELLVIEW DOTS.
Ths farmers of the neighborhood are
quite busy preparing their compost
heap in order that they may make more
cottom- There certaiuly must fee some
money in cotton.
The hard rain on last Sunday night
(the 23d) was thought to bo quite an
advantage to the small grain that was
left from the severe cold. Wheat is
doing very well, and if warm weather
contiues, it will not be very long be
fore we can look out upon the fields
and behold the lovely green color of
wheat, which is thought to exceed oth
er shades of green in beauty.
The farmers will plow up the fields
where they had oats sown in the Fall,
and sow again. “The way of tho far
mer is hard.”
Miss Eula Widoman, of Mississippi,
who is out on a visit to her Aunt, Mrs.
D. J. Wardlaw, of McCormick, spent
several days with her relatives iu this
neighborhood last week. She is quite
a lovely young lady, and we would be
lad if some youqg man, iq our midst,
i mm
f the beautiful river. , ' „ V
"Mr- T. A. McAllister, of Mount Car-,
mel, is around this week, driving a very
fine horse to one of the “brand new”
Domestic wagons. He presents quite a
gawdy appearance. Tom is a hand
some gentleman, and some of our
young ladies will do well to accept his
worthy attention.
J. K. H.
THE DIRT ROAD TO HEATEN.
Sam Jones, tho great Georgia evan
gelist, who is travelling the dirt road to
Heaven’ is making quite a stir among
the saintly people of Boston, and is
drawing immense congregations. So
far as the reports go he has uot yet
cursed John Sullivan or villified the
base ball players, bu t he has gone fur
ther and attacked the various religious
denominotions right and left. The
other day he assailed the Baptist by
saying: “Hero is a Baptist preacher
ringing the changes on water, much
water’ and psrhaps'a large proportion
of his people are fast going whore they
won’t get a bit to cool their parched
tongues.”
The^‘true inwardness” of this con
temptible, vulgar assault will bo better
understood when it is known that the
Baptist clergymen of Boston turned
their backs on Mr. Jones and refused
to have anything to do with him. It
would be better for the cause of good
morals and true religion if all the oth
er clergymen should likewise give Mr.
Jones tke cold shoulder. He would
doubtless, preach on and to larger con
gretation* than ever, but self-respect
ing Christians would hare the gratifi
cation of knowing that Mr. Jones, like
Buffalo Bill, was returning bis show
on his own account.—Netos and Courier.
