No Jews Admitted in the Grand
Union Hotel.
Some time since Judge Hilton, agent
for the widow of A. T. Stewart, gave orders
to the managers of tho Grand Union
Hotel at Saratoga Sorings to admit no
.Tews to tins puoiic nouse. iwu news
ago Joseph Scligman, si prominent
banker of New York applied for board
and lodging at this place, as he has done
every summer for the past ten years,
when the manager said to him: "Iain
very sorry, Mr. Scligman, but the orders
are peremptory that no Jews shall be received
as guests in this house. If any
were to be received, I assure you that
yourself and family would be among the
number. Uut the instructions aro imperative
to make 110 distinctions."
Mr. Scligman asked whether this rule
was enforced because of any lack of propriety,
or of cleanliness, or of honesty
among Hebrews, to which the clerk replied:
"Oh, no! by no means! Last
.year's business at the Grand Union was
very bad, and, as the hotel was more
sought alter by Jews than by other
.nationalities, Judgo Hilton ordered that!
this season no Jews 1 ?c admitted. Jtle
.hopes thus to obtain a large attendance oi'i
.guests."
This action on the part of a Northern
hotel keeper shows a spirit of intolerance
which should be rebuked in the strongest
terms. While the law of the United
States attempts to force the African cornlleld
hand into our hotels, it seems
strange to us that the Jewish race should
be proscribed on account of their religion
at a time when England has accepted a
Jew as Prime Minister.
Mr. Edward Lautcrbach, Mr. Joseph
Seligman's lawyer, said Mr. Seligman
and liis house, by dint of personal industry,
great business capacity and un
swerving Honesty, may nuuuui .
bo termed the * foremost Jews in the
United .States. Mr. Joseph Seligman was
ttic President of tlio liapid Transit (,'ommission;
is member of both Syndicates ;
has been a leader in Republican councils;
is the lirst Vice-President ol'the Union
League Club; a prominent member of
the Chamber of Commerce, and the President
of Prof. Adler's Ethical Society,
lie lias also been a member of the Board
of Education, and honored in other ways,
not only by his own people but by the
whole community, lie was thoonly gentlemen
with whom ex-President "Grant
diued in this city during his recent visit,
although tlooded with invitations, lie is
connected with every charitable institution
of almost every sect. His brother
James is a director of the Fifth Avenue
Temple Emanuel, and Jesse is the President
of the Hebrew Benevolent and Orphan
Asylum Society, tho largest Hebrew
society in the world.
Mr. Seligman possesses a university
education, and studied medicine in Germany.
He is a good speaker. His family
isretined and cultivated. Mrs. Seligman
is a quiet, unostentatious lady, well
Known for her acts of chirity. Tho children
have received the best education
tiiat money and care could provide. One
of Mr. Seligman's sons recently accomplished
the remarkable feat at Columbia
College of carrying otl' tho lirst prize in
every stud}'. Another son belonged to
-one of the victorious Columbia crews
that rowed at Saratoga. Horatio Alger,

tutor in Mr. Seligman's family, and a resident
in his house for years.
Several of tho hotel keepers at Long
Branch have been interviewed on this
.subject and it seems that there is considerable
prejudice against the Israelites
aunong both hotel keepers and their
christian and heat hern guests. To build
tho Grand Union Hotel cost ?J,(X>0,000,
and accomodations are furnished here for
2,500 persons. Judge Ililton says he
takes tho course he docs merely as a business
transaction?not that he has 3113' objection
to any particular Jew. ilany persons
are indignant at tho action, while
others think it matter of small concern.
Tho Jews will likely withdraw their
largo trade from tho house of.A. T.
Stewart ?fc Co., of New York, as the con-'
sequence of Hilton's action at Saratoga.
A keeper of one of the largest hotels said
to a Sun reporter:
"Hilton's manager was right, only he
made a mistake in telling Seligiflan that
he couldn't take him because lie was a i
Jew. 1 won't take a Jew. Their money
is good enough, but if I should, I would
lose all my other guests. When a Jew
comes to my house I either tell him that
I hain't any rooms, or elso show hiin
high back rooms and charge him an enormous
price lor them. That gets rid ol'
them. Our best guests will not come or
.stay if we have any Jews at all, and so
Ave have to decide between them and the
Jews. I would not hesitate to take some
Jews. Mr. Seligman is a desirable guest
in every way. l>ut the line must be
drawn somewhere. It is not because
they are Jews, but because their habits
and ways are not pleasing. The hottfl
keepers "don't make any war upon the
Jews, but the best class of guests don't
like them, and that is the reason why we
can't have them. They won't go'to a
hotel of their own. They want to flock
in where the best people are, even though
they know they are not wanted. Landlords
have more trouble with them than
with any other class."
In an editorial the New York Jlcrald
nays:
An attempt to revive the old prejudices
against them would bo a revolting anachronism

rope, uui iu auiciiixi, vuifiu jyuuri.'
distinctions of race and religion, it teems
an affront to our free and tolerant institutions,
as well as to the spirit of the age.
Judge lliiton could have had no conception
of the potept moral and social forces
which ho was unwarily defying when he
gave that order to the managers of his
Saratoga hoteL It was a thoughtless infringement
of legal rights as well as an
affront t? the sensibilities of a large, influential
and respectable portion of the
community. The proprietor of a hotel
has not the same absolute control of his
property that bolongs to the owner of a
private residence. Hotel keepers are I
placed by law in the same category as
common carriers. They are not at liber.
ty to refuse accommodation to any person
who applies so long as they have" accommodations
at their disposal. This law is
equally obligatory on common carriers
and ou innkeepers. If Sir. Vanderbilt
naa airecieu nis agents to sen uu uckcis
to Jews it is easy to imagine what a fcr-!
mont and commotion would have been !
raised. But it would have been an act of
precisely the same nature. Squeamish}
and over-fastidious people might as well ;
objoct to riding iu the same palace car'
with a Jewish family as to board with a,
Jewish family in the same hotel. A ho-,
tol is a quasi public institution. The law!
gives its proprietor exceptional privileges)
in collecting his bills as an ciisct to the i
duty it imposes on him to entertain all
who come so long as his house is not full.
This being a common right of all citizens
ilie Civil Kiglits law enforces it under so- 1
vere penalties even in behalf of the t
negroes. Can Jews bo denied rights ?
which the law guarantees to Africans?
If the head of the great house of Roths- '
child should happen to visit this country <
during the present season he would be j
excluded from the principal hotel of one
of our most important watering places '
because the proprietor does not approve '
of his religion. Even the Prime Minis- i
ter of England might be looked upon
with suspicion by the hotel clerks, for he
was born and bred a Jew, and might not
happen to have in his pocket a certificate
of Christian baptism?a document as im- i
jportant in that evangelical institution, ,
j the (irand Union Hotel, as Bank of England
notes to pav his bill. Wo have no
doubt Judge Hilton will regret his mis- j
take when he sees in what light it is viewed
by the public. ;
The New County.
Some of our friends at Ninety Six arc
urging the importance of forming a new
county from portions of Laurens, Abbeville
nnd Edgofleld counties, with the
Court House located in that town.
All subjects of public concern should
bo thoroughly discussed in the newspapers
in order that the general reader
may be the batter able to form a correct
opinion for himself. No mun will arrogate
to himself the right to think for othors,
and whilo the public are the Jurors
to judge of the caso, they should be will
ing listeners to any who may nring tacts |
to thoir notieo pro or con. For these and I
other reasons wo offer tho following!
thoughts. While we express our own
views, we will bo glad to hear from any
of our friends holding opposite convicvietions.
Nothing can be lost to a good
causo by a littlo friendly discussion.
| We cau readily see where a few indij
viduals may bo benefitted, but we are at
a loss to see where tho people are to be
benefitted by the change. There is no disguising
the fact that it takes more money
to support four county governments than
it takes to run three, and there is no getting
around that other fact that the cost of
erecting the public buildings will add
largely to the taxes of the people living
j within tho lines of the uew county. The
'court house and furniture at Abbeville
j cost ?20,000. The Jail, we presume, coBt
at least ?S,000, while the poor house and
poor farm cost a handsome sum. The
new county in addition to public buildings
would have to build and keep up
various expensive bridges across the Saluda.
If it cost on the whole property of the
large old county of Abbeville within a
fraction of four mills to build the court
house alone, is it reasonable to suppose
that a court house, jail and poor house
i.an be built, and poor farm purchased, i
without taxing all the property in the (
small new county to something like from
six to eight mills. i
In addition to this tax and outlay of i
public money paid into the treasury by
the farmers and laboring classes, the pro- (
poso<J act ^authorizing the formation of ,
the new county reqnires the transfer of (
all old records to the new county. Every 1
title deed and mortgage will have to be |
recordod anew, costing the owner of eve- i
rv tract of land in the county $1.25 in (
cash, and the holder of mortgage deeds, (
about $1.7">, besides the trouble of attending
to such transfer. All Judgments,
in unit An nrn tn hn transferred.
T>oes anybody suppose that the lawyers
work for nothing?
Are the people of Greenwood willing to ;
be taxed thus at the start, with the cer- 1
tain knowledge that all future taxation
will bo higher than if they remained in
the old county, and retained the use of '
the old pnblie buildings ? Will the people
of the neighborhoods of Phoenix and
Winter Scat be willing to incur this addi~
tional expense? Will somebody be pleased
to show us how tho people beyond the
Saluda are to be benetitted as long as a
big river rolls between them and the 1
court bouse. Wo are equally at a loss to 1
know what benefit tho pooplo living on
either side of the river near Smith's
bridge are to receive for the increased taxes
to be levied on them.
These are days of retrenchment and reform
and it seems contrary to the estab- <
lishod principles of economy to inaugn- 1
rate additional counties in this hour of '
our financial distress, with a full quota of !
new officers to Hvo on tho taxes drawn <
from the nooDle.
We are of opinion that we deceive our- 1
solves if wo think that court houses can
bo built and officers maintained without
a heavy expense. Except tho officers of
iho new county, and perhaps some lot
owners in town, wo cannot see where I
anybody is to bo much benefitted. We 1
are not sure that convenient facilities for
going to law is a benefit to the farmen
but think tho facts will warrant the assertion
that those living at tho greatest distance
spend less in litigation. When
mou live far from the court house they |
are more disposed to compromise any littlo
differences with their neighbor. i
A court house is an expensive luxury i
to the farmer. i
The Supreme Court.
By reference to an article elsewhere
published in this paper it will bq seen
that tho Supreme Court lias relieved
Charleston and Orangeburg of Buttz, the
Radical Solicitor; has remanded Petor
Smith to be held under sentence of
the Court of General Sessions; and has
ordered tho Stato Canvassing Board?
Dunn, Cardoza, Hayne, Purvis and Stone
to show cause why judgment should not 1
be entered against them injthe proceedings '
against them last November.
Solicitor Buttz has been a source of
trouble and annoyance to the good people
of the First Circuit for a long time
and we congratulate tlieni on their deliv- :
erance from so great a curse. Orangeburg
and Charleston must elect a Democrat
next time. (
It is understood that Mr. TV. St. Jullen ,
Jervey will be appointed Circuit Solicitor
to fill the vacancy. A wiser selection
could not be made.
Tho case of Peter Smith, or Jew Peter, aa '
he was called here, was at ono time regarded
as an important one indeed. He ]
was fourd guilty of robbing Douglass
& Miller's cash drawer of 8160; sentonced
to the ponitontiary for fifteen years;
Chamberlain, after hisj defeat, and when 1
claiming to act as Governor, issued a ,
pardon for Peter; Col. Parmelo, super- (
intendent of the penitentiary, refused to
recognize Chamberlain's authority to par
don; Jew Peter, under writ of habeas
corpus, was brought before the Court,
when he waa ordered to be put in jail
whore he has remained until now. The
Suprome Court delayed action in the case,
as it involved tha question as to who was
Governor?a decisision either way In Peter's
case would have settled the guber- ?
natorial problem aa far as the Supreme |
Court was concerned. E
Th0 suit against the Board of State t
Canvassers will likely bring to the State
Treasury the snug littlu sum of 37.500. j
With these important questions golved,
will anybody say that the of- ?
flee . Chief or Associate J nstfce is not an t
important ouo ? j

Charleston, we think, should use all
ler influence with the Railroad oflicials
o effect a change in the schedules of the
rains on the Railroads from Greenville to
Charleston. The trip should be made in
>ne day. As it is now, it requires twentyfour
hours of actual travel to make a trip
}f about two hundred and seventy miles,
which is at least eigne or iuuu uuuio i*/w
much. The Journal of Commerce and
the News and Courier reach here at halfpast
four o'clock in the afternoon of the
next day after publication. This puts
the Charleston papers at almost as great
n distance, as far as time is concerned, as
the New York papers. By tho present
arrangement Charleston need not be surprised
if she loses much of her trade.
The business community look to the
newspapers for their market and other
reports, and in these days of railroads
and telegraphs a newspaper two days old
is behind tho times. We believe the
Charleston dailies are the finest in the
Southern country, and their numerous
readers in this soction of the State think
it little short of an outrage to have them
detained sixteen hours in Columbia. The
train, it seoms to us, should leave Chari-~*

There is no necessity for travelers waiting
for the citizens of Charleston to gel
their breakfast and then there is no use
of the traveler being compelled to lie
over at a way station, (Columbia) all
night. By making this important change
wo would bo brought within half the distance
of Charleston, and the Charleston
papers would havo three times as great a
circulation as they now have in tho upcounty.
"We think if the publishers
would display half tho energy in having

This matter deserves your attention, gentlemen.
If excursion trains can rur

The Right to Distrain for Rent.
The re-enactment of the old law giving
the landlord the right to distrain for rent
we believe to be unjust. We take it there is
about as much obligation to pay one debl
as another. For instanco, if a landlord
rents land to a tenant and tho merchant

to take possession of the whole proceeds,

as necessary a commodity to mako tht
srop as the landlord may have furnished,
The law as it now stands, we believe tc
be unconstitutional. Certain exemptions
are guaranteed by that instrumenl
to the poor man, which tho distrain law
iocs not respect.
?
Another Democratic Victory.
Wo from tho innermost depths ol
Dur heart congratulate the First Circuit
and the County of Richland on their repent
good fortune?tho first upon being
relieved of an objectionable Solicitor and
the latter upon hor glorious triumph in
electing Crawford to the office of Probate
Judge, over his opponent Warren R,
Maftlmll, formerly tho Reading Clerk ol
the Mackey House, by a majority of 49(
votes. Well done Richland. Let thf
Democrats stand together solidly and
they can root out the dirty white Radicals
from every County in the State. Wc
are determined to hold the fort in Abbeville,
even if wo havo to insult every
white Radical in the County.

The Charleston Election.
Yostordny an election was held for seventeen
Representatives in the lowei
house of the General Assembly. The
whole up-country prays for Charleston's
jafe deliverance from the hands of the
Jespoilers who have so long run riot over
the people's rights. Charleston is now
the most important stronghold of the
Radicals, and If the Charlestonians can
[>nly rise in their might and remove the
corrupt crew that have so nearly ruined
Carolina's fairest city, there will go up a

The Fence Law.
This most important law Ib bolng pretty
thoroughly discussed all over the
State, and every shade of expression ha?
been made. Whatever may be the result
of the election in August we are certain
that the law is a necessity, which
nil will bo be bound to recognize soonei
or later. We would in this State save
millions of dollars in timber and labor bj
adopting, the law. Let the matter be
oarefully looked into, and thero will
be no question as to the result.

Rev*. Samuel Dunwody of the S. C.
Conference, was born in Chester County ]
Pennsylvania, August 1st 1780, was macfe
the subjoct of converting grace August 8
1802 and was admitted on trial in the S.
C. Conference January, ISOfi. The territory
embraced in the S. C. Conference at that
time included the greater part of the
States of Georgia, North and South Carolina
with their principal citics. Many
, unsuccessful attempts had been mado to
establish a Methodist Church in the city
of Savannah. Ministers of eloquence and
' zeal had been sont there, but their eft'orts
had proved unavailing. Bishop Asbury,
always keenly alive to the interests of tho
Church, allor a careful survey of the
whole field decided at the Conference of
1807 to send another minister to Savani
nah. Accordingly ho selected Samuel
i Dunwody as the man to lead this "forlorn
hope." Undaunted by the difflcul!
ties which surrounded him he entered
1 with so much zeal and energy into the
i work assigned mm tuac at tno cioso 01
tho year he had tho satisfaetion of reporting
12 members received into the M. E.
1 Church. "Thus was Mr. Dunwody the
i honored instrument in the hands of God
. in establishing the doctrines and usages
of Methodism among a people who lind
1 heretofore resisted their introduction and
, who had persecuted oven to violence
. their zealous advocates."
The next year ho was stationed in
' Wilmington X. Carolina. Subsequently
' he tilled the stations of Charleston,
> Georgetown, Camden, Wilmington,
[ Fayetteville, Savannah and Augusta, ana
to-aay in those cities, his memory is
' revered and his name is "as ointment
poured forth." His active ministry exi
tended over a period of forty years, without
interruption. From that time he
sustained asuperanuated relation until his
death, and never in the course ol' his long
i ministry did he merit or recoive censure
, from his brethren. Ou tho contrary he
' stood high in their esteem and confidence
' and it was their delight to honor him.
Ho was elected a delegate to the first
. General Conference ever held in the
i United States. It met in the city of New
York in 1812. From that time he was a
* member of every succeeding General
I Conference during his ministry except
one. In 1844 ho was a delegate to the
[ Memoralle General Conference held in
New York, where through the fanaticism
1 of Northern men, the M. E. Church was
r rent in twain. His speech on slavery at
f that Conference, was such a masterly *dcfence
of our Southern Institutions that
' oven the great Dr. Darbin, one of the
i most learned men in the Northern branch
. of the Church, failed to answer it or to
refute a single argument used in the
spoooh. Slavery was defended on script'
ural grounds and arguments drawn from
the Bible are unanswerable.
He was also a delegate to the Louisville
Convention in 1845 whfre the M. E.
Church South was organized. In all
, these assemblages he was ever the fearless
' defender of the South and devoted to the
^ interests of Southern Methodism.
? As a scholar his attainments were great
I and varied. To his English studies, he
. added the Hebrew, Greek and Latin languages
and attained proficiency in them.
He read tho Old and New Testaments
( fluently in the original and was uevotca
to the study of theso languages. His
knowledge of the Bible was unsurpassed,
' for his memory was so great that he
knew the sacred scriptures almost word
, for word from Genesis to Revelation. He
was a thorough scholar in ancient and
' modern history and "gave attendance to
> reading, such as made the head wiser and
. the heart better." As a christian ho wan
t sincere and guileless, pure and holy in
' life and humble as a little child. A
' friend once wrote of him. "Ho was
deeply versed in christian experience,
and was fully able to help those, who
wore passing through doubts and fears, to
the attainment of a pure, settled christian
, peace and love." As a friend he was
over a welcome guost in thousands of;
1 homes all over the Stato. The social cir.
cle was always cheered, not chilled, by his
, presence, for Jus disposition was so" ge'
nial, his manner so kind as to bring sun^
shine to the hearts of his friends. His
i reminiscences wore so varied, his fund of
. anecdotes so abundant, that his conversation
never failed to give pleasure to hia
' listeners. He had peculiarities as most
f great men have, but those havo been
; greatly exagerated by persons whose
( knowledge of him was superficial. In
. his family circle no one was ever more
1 devoted or affoctionate. Lovo was tho law
nf !ii? lifrt.
? One who was intimately acquainted
with him writes as follows."
"As a minister Mr. Dunwody stood in
' tl;e front runk of the Southern Methodist
ministry, for nearly half a century.
His preaching was remarkable for stong
reasoning, close and conclusive argumentation,
strengthened by scriptural
. proof and fired bv a zeal and earncst.
ness peculiarly his own. He was indeed
a master workman "who needed not to
* be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of
i truth." Ho olten expressed himself as
( better qualified for the establishment and
confidence of beliovers, than for the
awakening of sinners. Such a remark
' we think can only be applied to the later
i period of his ministry. In his earlier
years, he had many seals to his apostolic
commission, from the ranks of sinners in
1 all the charges he tilled, no doubtu?any
Erecious souls, redeemed andsafHaby
lood divine, will in the last day riso up
and call him blessed. Thousands out of
1 the palo of his own church have been
i edified and built up in the faith of tlio
Gospel by his ministry and some of his
mo3t devoted friends were ministers and
members of other churches, whose religious
belief differed widely from his
own. At different times during his ministry
be published sermons, which have
been highly commended and extensively
read. Those on the "mode and subjects
of christian Baptism," "DomesticSlavery
in the South," and the "Foreknowledge
and Decrees of God," are considered by
competent judges, clear, concise and forcible
arguments, on the subjects of which
, they treat. His friends regret that he
aia not use ms pen more irequenuy, dclieving
that the cause of truth and right>
eousness would have been greatly advan[
ced, if he had written more extensively."
Ho died in Cokesbury, S. C., July 9th,
1854. His body rests in the grave-yard
at "old Tabernacle" awaiting the morning
of the Resurrection, in hope of a
glorious immortality.
We close this imperferfect tribute to
the memory of one of the greatest and
best of men with an extract from a
sketch of him by Bishop Wightman
D. D., who is regarded as authority on
: all subjects, of a mental, moral and religious
nature.
"'Samuel Dunwody ./as a eharactor,
"such as lovers of the montal and moral
"picturesque, would delight to studv and
"doliveate. Few such men ever lived.
"In tho tens of thousands of sermons he
"has proached in all parts of South Carolina,
no hearer recollects ever to have
' noticed one attempt at a figure of rhetoric

A TRIP TO CAROLINA.
rhc Elberton Roys Visit Abbeville
for a Rase Rnll Contest and Re- ;
tura with {flipped Pinions--A
Good Time, ctc.
From the Eibrrlon Gmatle.
Last Thursday monilncr the No Nome Nine
baso ball club of this town started lor Abbevillo,
H. (J., to play a game of ball with the
Resolute club of that city. After a ride <>f :ifl
miles overmiuldy roads and through the rain
Abbeville was reached about sunset, when
the members of the N. N. X. were met by tho |
gentlemen of the other club and assigned i
places of abode (luring their slay In this de-1
llghtful town. Few of the Elberton club lind
ever visited Abbeville before, and although
the town Is famous for Its handsome residences
and beautiful tlower gardeusand grounds,
some of the boys expressed themselves as
surprised and enchanted with the tasty and
lovely appearance of the many beautiful res- i
idences and cultivated gardens that here and
there deck the city.
Fears were entertained by the two clubs, ns i
by nearly 11 the people, that the day on nccount
of ne gloomy state of the weather
would be unpropltlous for the contest. The
hour for the match was appointed at four i
o'clock, p. m., on Friday, ami as early as t wo
In the afternoon the people began to asseml 1
on the ground, and right here, we would observe
that we never saw such interest manifested
by the elderly portion of the community
in the game, which Is obliged to act us i
an incentive to the youmr men who emcacoin
the sport.
At 8:30 the boys left Wier's hotel for the
ground, nnd soon thereafter reached I he snot
where the noble sons of Georgia and Carolina
In friendly eontest were to strive lor the
championship of the ball nnd lmt. The excellent
brass 'mud of the city was on the field
and before nnd afi. the gnmc discoursed the
sweetest music to ti. -pcctutorsnnd contestants?this
bund, If is i.ot, should be the prldo
of Abbeville, for it Is Indeed one of the best
that It has been our good fortune to listen io
for some tline. On the ground, too, were Ab.
bevllle's legion of fat rand eha'rniingdaughters
and the Elberton boys say that they attribute
their defeat, to the presence of so much dazzling
beauty?that they couldn't half play for
looking at the bright-eyed, rosy-cheeked
beauties that were so abundant in the crowd
of spectators?If there is any pith In this
hypothesis the writer of this was so enchanted
that he didn't know himself from an umbrella,
for he never played poorer in the
wholo course of his extended hase ball career.
There was an exceedingly largo concourse
of people on the field, and prompt ly at
four o'clock* the boys began the game, and after
about two hours and a quarter of spirited
batting and fielding, and nlsoa goodly quantity
of poor playing by the Elberton nine,
the score was announced, amidst deafening
applause, ltesoliite, 2S; No Namo Nine, lit.
During the game u shower came up that lasted
about twenty minutes, but the boys did
not stop on account of it. Cheers rent the air
from the excited crowd when a good play whs
made, Irrespective of sides, nnd although it
was but natural that Carolina should have
the ascendency, not seldom did .wc hear a
rousing " 'Itah for Georgia!" The boys tool;
their defeat like men, and while, of course,
their feelings were tinged with that disagreeable
sensibility that more or less attuches to
every defeat, they bore up bravely, and one
of the boys spoke the sentlmentof the nine
when he remarked. "Well, boys, wo are beat,
but we couldn't have been outdone by a more
clever set of gentlemen."
Friday evening the N. N. N. were invited to
a social gathering at the residence of Mr.
Smith, one of Abbeville's most successful
merchants, where they had an opportunity of
becoming acquainted with many of the fair
ladies of the city, and while it might be premature
to assert it, from the way some of the
boys talked, there was sad havoc made In
their bosoms. However this may be, certain
it is that the social was a rcuherche affair
and the participants enjoyed it greatly.
Never before have we seen greater hospitality
dispensed with better grace than at Abbeville,
and our boys are loud in their praises
of the place and the people. And, now, as
the two towns are not a world apart, and
there seems to have been such a promising
way opened up for the enjoyment of social
intercourse. It is to be hoped that, the opportunity
will be embraced to cultivate and develop
the growing congeniality.
The Abbeville club will visit Kinerton before
long, when we trust that our boys will liable
to render their stay us pleasant as was
their sojourn across the Savannah, anil also
that hlberton niny regain her lost laurels.
While In Abbeville, jour reporter stopped
at Wler'g Central hotel, and received all the
care and attention that such clever and genmanly
proprietors as the Messrs. Wler, (father
anu son) are capable of {jiving to their
guests.
We also made a visit to the sanctum of the
congenial and able editor of the iVr.wr mid
liunm-r, Mr. Hugh Wilson, who handles the
scissors with remarkable dexterity, and
wields a fluent pen, which is obvious front tlio
excellent paper he weekly grinds out, and
which Is a welcome visitor to this ollic*.
The only objection we eould liiul with him
was that several summers have passed over
his boad, and as yet no sllvcry-loncd female,
lady calls him darling. However, lie may
have done his part and Is not so much to
blame after all. Long may he flourish!
We had the pleasure likewise of meeting
the Junior editor of the Medium, Captain
Hemphill, who Is also a clever gentleman,
and a sound Journalist?making a good paper
for his people. He Is also a single pink,
nut on every feature beamed evidences of a
hope that might dawn In the not distant future.
Success, young man.
The crops along the road to and from Abbeville
wore In a flourishing condition. The
gleaners were harvesting the wheat crop
which wns good, the corn was growing at a
n nlrl rntn uiw) wliut I i f t 1 n<it f < tl 1 YTl? tCiltV Mil
the Carolina side appeared to he doing well.
The Industries of this State has evidently
gained new Impetus from the inauguration
of Democratic rule, and in a few year* will

Democratic Economr and Hepublican
Extravagance.
During the winter of 1S75-K a strenuous effort
was made by the Republicans to reduce
expenditures, so that their party might have
practical reforms to point to when the State
canvass of 1X70 began. In comparing, therefore,
the Republican appropriations for the
fiscal year 1K75-0 with the Democratic appropriations
for the llscal year 1S70-77, the advantage
la given the Kepubllcaus in selecting the
year in which their appropriations were put
at what they regarded as tlie lowest possible
figure. It will oe seen, however, by an examination
ol the subjoined table that, exclusive
of interest, the appropriations for the
current year, undor Democratic rule,
less than In the last year of the Chainberjaln
administration.

No account has been taken of the Interest
on the public debt, ns In both years a sum
sufficient was appropriated. In salaries the
reduction Is marked. The saving there Is
over ?50,000. There Is nn Increase In the contingent
funds, consequent upon the unsettled
condition of the government earlier In the
year, and the necessity of providing for the
expenses of litization in the Attorney General's
olTlce. Tne public institutions have
enough for their actual wants, and no more.
The Deaf and Dumb Asylum is provided for ;
and so is the Interest on the State bonds purchased
with funds belonging to the Agricultural
College. For the University and the
Normal School only enough money was appropriated
to keep the buildings in order.
These eleemosynary, rather than educational,
institutions will be thoroughly reorganized
next winter. The public schools get
$100,000, and the poll tax, which is expected
to realize SI00,000 more. The S'JOO.OOO will be
sufficient, itis believed, to keep the schools in
operation until October, In counties where
tne schools have incurred no indebtedness.
For public printing the appropriation is reduced
to S10,000. Not long ago thfe amount
paid out, in one year, for printing was over
5300,000. The expenses of the General Assembly
are reduced from SUO.OOO to 8100.500. and
the reduction would have been greater but
for the tenacity of the high-priced Senators.
Figures arc deeply Interesting to tax payers
when they show now the public money has
been saved; anil by such figures the people
Judge of the fidelity of tlieir servants. The
Democracy have made a cheering beginning
and they will gather encouragement to ro-j
trench still further while conferring with i
their constituents this summer.?Scwa uxil
