Rome time in January last Messrs.Cunnlng hatn
?fc Templeton, merchants at this place,
made an assignment of their partnership and
'individual property for the benefit of creditors.
In that assignment Mr. J. II. Cunningham
included every dollar of his personal
property, not excepting the bed upon which
lie slept. Mr. Cunningham is a widower, sixty-four
years of age without immediate, lamily.
and is not. under the law, entitled to any
homestead exemption, but at the meeting of
the creditors of the assigned estate, we believe,
it was unanimously resolved to return
to him the furniture which he had in his bed
room. As a further testimonial of their confidence
in hi in, and their sympathy for his
distressed condition, they elected him as'
their agent io wind uu the busKiness. At this
action on their part the people of this entire
community were very much gratified. The
.goods were sold, and the money was accounted
for in due time. For this work Mr. Cunningham
was paid about $121.
Several <>f the creditors of the firm of Cun'
ningham A Templeton, a Mounting in the aggregate
to SI,GOO, refused to a accept under the
;a?signment,'a*nd Davenport <k Morris, grocery
dealers of Richmond. Va., by supplemental
proceedings, are making an effort, to take
that money from Mr. Cunningham, in payment
of their debt against the firm of Cunningham
?fc Templeton?being the very mon-|
ey which other creditors of the firm gave him
the opportunity to make.
Much sympathy would naturally be felt
for any one who should >e so pursued and
distressed, but in the case of Mr. Cunningham
our people are shocked. He too is the only
man who has beeu so treated as far as we have
heard.
As a matter of humanity, there should be
? some protection frrm such distress!.ig
pursuit. Mr. Cunningham is far advanced in
life, feeble in body, and if he is to be contin-i
'wally pounced on by creditors, and the little
wages which he may be able to earn for
his individual support is to be taken away
from him. his situation is lamentable indeed.
iVDOevme touiny mm HOCI n?m ?? ..v,..ored
or a more honorable nian than J. It.
'Cunningham, and we may add, that we believe
that no man's creditors ever pursued a
debtor in a more unfeeling manuer than have
.Davenport & Morris, grocery merchants of
Kichmond, Va.. pursued our beloved and unfortunate
citizen. Abbeville county has
many creditors, but, so far as we are inform cd,
not one within our borders has ever pursued
an unfortunate debtor as Davenport ?
Jlorrls of Richmond have done.
First Man in tbc Race.
The first name which has come before the
people of Abbeville county through the columns
of the Press and Banner as a candidate
for office is that of Captain H. Cowan for
school commissioner. It will be remembered
that Captain Cowan has tilled that office for
one or two terms, and that he, upon going
into office, nearly or quite doubled the school
term. He did this by reducing the monthly
pay of teachers from$10.00 to$20.00, and kept
the same teachers at ?30.00 to whom his pred- j
ecessor had paid$40.00. The Captain is fully
convinced that the school fund is intended
. for the benefit of the children, and not as a
bounty t<? the fortunate holders of teacher's
certificates. He is also in favor of educating
the poor, and of giving even the children of
persons who rent land a chance for education.
No instance Is on record of his having
refused a school to children because of their
poverty. He is Democratic iu principle, and
will never allow the ricli to appropriate more
than their fair share of the public money, nor
will he ever permit local trustees to deny a
*chooi to poor children merely because they
are the children of persons who rent land.

in order t hat the people may be more greatly
benefitted than ever before, he will again re<iace
tne present salaries of teachers to a figure
that will allow, even the children of
those who rent land as much school privileges
as are now accorded to the children of
the most favored school trustee. Captain
Cowan Is a fair man, who deserves the votes
of the people. He was a faithful and efficient
officer.

Some Valuable and Comforting:
Suggestions About bo^s
Editor Press and Banner:
Frequent in>tanceaof hydrophobia have, re~
cently been published in the newspapers and
other periodicals. One instance in particular
has induced me to offer some information
that may be of service to persons bitten by a
supposed mad dug. I will not state that instancein
detail, but merely allude to it as the
deplorable death of a gentleman in the prime
of manhood, partly, if not wholly, from the
fear of hydrophobia, after being dog-bitten.
In the first place, it must not be taken lor
granted that every dog t hat has a tit, or ifi
otherwise sick, or that is evidently estray is
rabid, or mad. Grave mistakes are made in
killing dogs under Mich conditions, especially
if they have bitten a human being. Such
dogs should be secured and confined under
close observation for a lew days. Indeed, SI
rabid and in an advanced Riane of the disease,
a few liours, perhaps a few minutes, will
be sufliuicnt.. To render this advice at all valuable
it is necessary to disseminate correct
ideas as to the condiiion known as dog-madness,
or in professional language, rabies cunina.
There are two varieties of rabies; the
raving inadndss, and the dumb madness.
The begining of raving madness is occasionally
quite obscure. In tho greater number of
cases, however, ordinary observations will detect
more or less sullen ness and an uneasy
and sometimes irritable restlessness; a prevailing
disposition to changa their bed and
resilience; great disposition ti> lick cold substances;
insatiable thirst and greedy consumption
of water as long as they are able to
lap ami drink it, and other fluids; ioss of ai>petite,
especially for solid, natural food (occasionally
some dogs will take a small amount
of good food;) they teat* up and eat various
unsuitable substances, as wood, leather,
straw, wool, &c.; obstinate costive ness;
disposition to bite, especially if angered,
or if thofdog be of an irritable temper;
frequent vicious snaps 111 the air as if they
were catching gnats or flics when neither may
be about them : sudden and furious rushing
at illusory objects, and sometimes coining in
violent contact with a wall, or fence, the distance
to \vhici?th?*y had evidently misealculatcd;
from this state the magic influence of
the master's voice recalls them and dispells
their terror and they crawl towards him with
their natural expression ol' attachment and
devotion, but the-se lueld moments are transient;
in bad cases they seem insensible to
pain. and frequently tear out their lront teeth
in hi ting their chain or other hard substances,
and viciously seize and grind up live coals of
tire if accessible, without the least indication
of pain; among the chief things to be noticed
is a peculiar change in the voice, or bark ; the
bark Is harsher, perhaps o< arser than natural,
ai d is immediately followed by a short,
peculiar howl, nearly as if both sounds were
one vocal act. Yoontt says the mad-howl
cannot be mistaken; they do not lose their
c-inseiouMiess except during paroxysms ur>
lil shortly before death ; at tirst their appearance
is very slightly changed; about the second
or third nay their eyes usually become
reddened and are occasionally closed at internals
for a few seconds; at this time the
skin on the forehead is drawn into folds, or
wrinkles, giving the animals a sleepy, surly,
fretful appearance; subsequently the eyes become
dull and languid, but never fiery and
lively as at first; most acjuire a rough and
rugged appearance and all in a short time
become remarkably wasted or emaciated;
till* Illliutll Ift g;taIIUI?IIIJ IcllUC! Ui,y LI 111 it Jii?/ ow
and therefore without foam or over-running
saliva, except when the throat is deeidedly
and spasmodically aH'ccted, so that the saliva
cannothe swallowed, and then the small
quantity of loamy saliva gathered at the corners
of the month is tough, viscid and glutinous;
so long as the dog has power, and so
long lis it is not pursued, it carries its tail
naturally wagging it cheerfully as it may fancy,
hut as he grows weaker the tail hangs
down loosely and languidly ? it is never
tucked under the hod.v like that of a scared
dog: thelitis not altered at first., nor do
they always, as is commonly believed, travel
only in a >traiglit line, but if undisturbed
run about in various directions or along the
road, and spring aside only when a paroxysm
seizes them, in order to bite. Many
dogs, however, in a later period of the disease
when they have become bewildered and
confused do keep straight forward until their
course is changed by some accidental circumstance
or terminated by deatii; in their furious
state they wander over thy country
bent on mischief attacking man and beast?
particularly doss.
These idicat 1011s of raving madness in the
dog are principally derived from Ihe description
ol rabies by llert wig. a German physi
cian, who had si practical knowledge of the
i subject. Many vivid illustrations and elaborations
of tlie^e symptoms could be drawn
fromotln-r eminent sources, including the
work ol" Veterinary Surgeon Youatt. Hut I
trust enough has been written to enable the
ordinary observer to recognize rabies in the
doii.
l)r. Chelius describes dumb madness ns
characterized "by chango of manner becom!
ing less lively and watchful, more quiet, rest1
fill and melancholy: the lower jaw drops as
i If paralyzed, the spittle flows down to the
: ground, and everything, even fluids, which
i the animal wishes to swallow, drops from its
| month. It can therefore bite but little, as the
inclination to bite, to run, and even to restlessness
is diminished. All other symptoms
resemble thos? of ravins.' madness. The
course of the disease in both forms is always indefinite
and in all cases runs on todcatn. The
attack progresses by gradual but daily wast|
ing of the tissues and failure of the vital
! powers, and terminates six or eight flays afiter
the (irst par.vysm. Sometimes death occurs
earlier and the animal dies suddenly as
| if from appoplcxy."
The point I wish to emphasize is this: If
! a person is bitten by a dog that cannot, er-.r,
tniiilv lip tit'iiDmnicpil i':11 i I hvtlie lesls iriv
; en above. In*should dismiss from his mind iis
i absurd any fear of hydrophobic .Moi cover,
I hydrophobia docs not always lollow 011 the
bite of a really rabid animal, be it don, cat
or wolf. In Europe where most of the hydroi
phobia cases occur, It is only about fifteen per
| cent, of those bitten who have hydrophobia.
I Let us then look at the facts of the situation
! in every case calmly and rationally, and not
l be frightened, perhaps t<> death, at something
I that cannot happen if the dog is not rabid,
and that probably may not happen even if
I his madness is fully established.
1 The most agreeable reflection in connection
i with this important subject consists in a
knowledge of the factUha't M. l'asteur, the
j great French chemist, and scientist, lias do:
monstrated his ability to stamp out rabies in
j the dog. In the Medic il. X'tts of April -1th of
! this year, Dr. Geo. M. Sternberg, Surjieon
i United states Army, gives an, account of his
! visit to M. Pasteur's laboratory a year ago, in
I \t*l lich lln clntOw licit ? P.nfA.iiP 11 rid 1*11 SI V Kill ic.
I tied himself by repeated experiments that
j dogs could be rendered immune even after
they had been bitten by a rabid animal."
! That means that dogs cannot lie infeetcil,
(and therefore will not, or cannot become
{ rabid. Then why not begin the stamping out
! process by compulsory legislation, curtailing
j tlie number of dogs ami requiring under a
: heavy penalty, inoculation of the remainder,
! and all succeedingdogs, against rabies. There
i is nothing impracticable or irrational in the
[proposition. I cite a parallel fact;?vaccinaI
tion of man against small pox is compulsoI
ry in Canada. As a pleasant conclusion I
J will add that M. Pasteur is now engaued in
j perfecting a reli ti>le prevention of hydroj
phobia in man. Mis success thus far is wonderful
and almost conclusive. Tlie test of
tim>c<8.kmc is wanting. Lotus wait li<?peful|lj%

from the fact, that accommodations are irequently

The change in the pauce on the Augusta

The carpenters are busy on the new depot, i
They will soon have it up. Mr. Miller, of
Laurens, is the contractor, The depot will
be !)) feet long by 46 feet wide. ;It will have a 0
platform all around, and will not be situated
on the main track. .Some talk of platforms
heinj? erected between each of the interven- I
ing tracks from the main one. We think this
will be the very thing. The way the passeu- j,
gers will have to get in the cars if these plat- p
forms are not built will he dreadful, especial- o
ly tor ladles. The railroailauthorlties should
look aficr this matter, though small il may

Jas. Colhran, Jr., is out on a visit to relatives
In Abbeville county. Mr. Ives was reared in i.
this county and left here 12 years ago. None
of his sisters knew him when he came back.
He is a son of Mr. Fredrick Ives of this conn- v

Mrs. Mary F. Smith returned home from a|

We heard a youne man say on last Wcdnes- c
I day evening that Mt. Carmei was the most
lonesome place heaver stopped at. ilis gii'll.,
I was at MeCormlck; I guess that, was the rca*
son of such a day or two being put over. Sunday

for it. t'
The editor of th<* IVrw/t and Courier did not
seem to be much in favor of the action of the L
Farmers' Convention which met in Columbia I
! last week. He says: "The last resolution ap-! ^
pears to be superfluous. The will of thb|K
farmers of the Slate can i>e ax effectively ex-i
pressed in the Legislature as in the Convenlion.
When they have once agreed among!'
themselves as to what they think is just and c
right for themselves, nothing remains to be
done, as Mr. Tillman lias so happily phrased c
it, but-for them to "go home and take it," or g
jro to the General Assembly and take it. The
ten resolutions cover Mr. Tillman's whole ?
ease, and the inference is irresistible that his
eleventh commandment was simnly added
to break the obvious analogy between the 1
"slate." of the modern Moses and the stone!'
I tihles of his illustrious prototype." The
! Xeivx and. Omrier as the leading journal in g
| the State of South Carolina should try to en- <:
courage the farmers in tlieir eon veil Hons and ! u
! enterprises, instead of ridiculing their ac-|
| tions. The farmer is certainly the backbone' j
of our country. [
