The Press and Banner Wednesday, Dee. 22,1886. Hnrd Time*. k Owing to the almost total loss of the oat, wheat, and Corn crops in this County, and because of their Bhort crops of cotton this people are in greater financial distress than they have ever been. Many faint lien, both white and colored, are now pinched for the article* of food which are ncpetvRiiry for the sustenance of life. We presume there are hundreds of families In this County who have not ?i bushel of eith er, corn, wheat, or oats in their houses. The supply of meat amounts to almost nothlhg at all. A very large per cent of the firm horses, mules, and cows are mortgaged to their full value or more. The merchants have made smaller collections than usual, and we presume this fact will force them In many in^tinces to be less obliging than they otherwise would be. For the reasons already assigned much poor stock of all kinds will no doubt be ex-1 posed to public sale. Nobody has the money to huy, and so far, the stock which has been sold, has gone for nominal flgureK It seems to us that the outlook for business Generally Is extremely discouraging. The cotton shlpmenst up to the first of December has been good as tor the same period last year, as will appear by the figures given, but there Is no money left after paying debts incurred In making the crops. There wilt be a heavy falling ofr In the shipments of cotton during the month of December, and there will be almost no cotton left in the county after the first January. I>as?. year we shipped over two thousand bale;?.ln the spring, but there seems to be no possibility of shipping this spring more than a third as much as was shipped lust spring. To add to our misfortunes, the high rate of Interest has depreciated our landed rstut?s, and now there are hundreds of farms under mortirage, which, together with the deprl??ia-1 tlon \a the market value of farming lands, j and the rapidly increasing debt, would prevent the farms from bringing at public sale, | enough tnone?-to satisfy their encumbrance. Lands now seem to have almost no market. v.? r? that (Vinitnlixts Would 1 prefer to have a ten per cent mortgage, rather than to own the land. Cotton Shipment* from Abbeville. 1*86. 1885 October. 2.9 !6 2.U.56 November. ; 2,610 2,672 Decrease In 1886, 72 bales. GINNED AND PACKED. At McMillan's 1.050 bales. AtSmltb & Henry's 475 bales. Total 1,525 bales. Beifts An Increase over work done by these ftrrrts la?t year of about 250 bales, and with favorable season their Work would have run up! to 2,009 tm 1 cs. The total shipments to date have been About T.000 bales. During the month of November about 700 hales were shipped to Charleston. In December to date about 300 bales have been shipped to that city, or about one-fifth of the entire shipments. From these figures and j from information or rumors we are lei to believe that our commercial relations with OharleKton will be greatly reduced in the future. If noteutirely broken up, and the sooner It is broken u", the belter for Abbeville. No merchant can afford to pay twenty-five per cent, for the n<eof money six months and long survive, neither can he compete with towns who do not deal with commission merchants. Formerly Charleston received over threefourUis of onrcotton. This year that city will receive about one-fifth. ? The Cumberland Gap. A meeting of the Directors of the Carolina, Cumberland Gap and Chicago Railroad was held last night in the law office of Messrs. IVrrln ?fc fJotliran. Present?Colonel It. E. Bowen of Pickens. Jud-,re J. S. Cothran of Abbeville, Dr. T. G. Croft of Aiken, R. \V. Haddon of Due West, 1* wis Jones of Edireflcld, Ooloael J. H. Duckworth ??< Brevard, N. C. Mr. Thomas P. Cothran. Secretary of the Board, was also present. The old officers of the road were re-elected. The meeting was chiefly to ratify some former acts, to sign some papers which could not be sinned at a former meeting lor the reason of * luck of a quorum. The Prosldtrnt said he thought the affairs of the road were getting in a more healthy condition. Mr. Haddon said the meeting was strictly private. Further than this we have no inlormation. We hear on the streets that a railrvid contractor has his eye on the English money that is to build the road, and that he will furnish a part of the money which may be necessary to mate an experimental survey, and that he. with Colonel Bowen. will soon go over the line and spy out the land. Depot Burned at Lowndeavllle. The railroad depot at Ixiwndesvilie was burnt last Thursday morning. It is said that a stray spark from a passTns engine must have gotten into the cotton, though there Is m> positive proof of the fact. It seems that the Are was not discovered until the building had been destroyed. About one hundred bales of cot'on, about eighty-five barrels ot flour, and other goods were lost. Mr. Cooley, merchant, lost about twenty bales of cotton, %M m r Atlflti r<Unlre>Anlau 1 AOt ?1 Vh'tloQ Othpr losses by citizens were sustained, Th iu^h the railroad was the heaviest loser. The cotton which was i? loss to citizens hud lieen tefton the platform, for which no receipt had been taken. Horse Stoles nnd Recovered. Mr R. P.

The collection of taxes has been closer this year than in any ye?r since Captain Perrln has been In office.

MERCHANTS, Dcc. 20tl), 1SS6. Per J. J. Caktledoe. ???i The Quarrel Between Charleston and Columbia. Greenville Daily News. 1 The Charleston and Columbia newspapers are inHch given K> talking of "sectioriullsmi" j and we suppose tlie people of those cities have the snme habit. Their legislative reprcKcntaI tives have It, and newspapers and representatives are quick to lug the cry of sectionalism and thechargeol narrow mlndedness Into the disciii>slou of any question of Stale policy in which th?*y are Interested. Remembering these facts, It Is interesting to observe the qunrrel between Charleston and Columbia that has bt*-n In intermittent progress since the lust State Democrutlc Cou vention. In that convention certain delegates from Richland countv. of which Columbia Is part, voted for Dr. Matiidin. of Greenville, for Lieutenant Governor, and for Mr. Barle, of Sumter, for Attorney General, against Mr. HuNon, of Hampton, and Mr, Miles, of Charleston, who were supported by Charleston. Then the row began. An observer who did not know the facts would have supposed that the Richland delegates who voted tor Mauldin and Earle? who are honest and capable men and sound Democrats?had committed a deadly treason. It was openly proclaimed that Col* uinbia had broken an old alliance with Char* leston, and threats ol punishment were slight* ly masked undervalue general declarations that the capital of the State might go ofT with her new friends and depend on them for help in future emergencies. Now we have another revelation. The Cnarlrston A'ews ami Qsurier of yesterday prints a letter from a Columbia correspondent telling how the people of that city accept the defeat of the canal bill. They are reported as bending to the yoke, kissing the rod and meekly submitting to the defeat of the cherished canal bill its the punishment inflicted by Charleston for Itlchland's vote against Charleston's favorite candidates und earthquake bill. The following are given as expressions of prevalent jvwhltc opinion : "I don't blame Charleston," said a well known merchant and politician; ' Charleston did exactly what I would have done under the clrcum?tances, and to get ev?ti Is the sweetest thing in life, I think. It Is mighty hard, however, that the punishment should full upon people who don't deserve 11, for I know the representatives of Richland did not express the sentiments of the people of Columbia either in their votes in the State Convcntson or on the earthquake bill In the House of Representatives. ? ? Hasn't Charleston always voted for anything that Richland wanted? * * * No; I can't blRmeCharleston. I couldn't blame her If she opposed every measure that Columbia has the slightest Interest In. "It's mighty hard," said another gentleman, "that our people should be punished for what they never did, although I can't say but what it is fair. Why, alter the State Convention, Col. Haskell came very near being defeated for the Legislature because of the action in that convention In cutting loose from Charleston. Jl was oniy rno met mni his services were wanted to toelp the canal that secured hls.electlon at the primaries. 1 understood h?tfould have voted for the Charleston earthquake bill but was sick. The vote of these Representatives on that earthquake bill waseVen more of a surprise t?? us than It was to you. After that the only surprise to me was that eight of the Charleston members voted for the ranal hill. But," I remarked, "the four votes polled by Charleston did not alone defeat the bill. The majority against it, you remember, was "Oh yes. I know that. Still If the old feeling of friendsfiip between Charleston and Columbia had prevailed, that ranul bill would have passed, I'm certain. If the Charleston delegation had voted solidly and worked hard, as Ihey always had done, for Columbia, there would have been no doubt about the success of the canal bUl. On every side can toe heard the expression cf the opinion that it was a bad dav for Columbia when she forsook her old friends and allies and formed new aud strange "combines." * There Is not a word about the interests or rights of the Statet?r the merits of any of the questions or men. "Hasn't Charleston always voted for anything Richland wanted?" "Of course she has; and how that Richland representatives have dared to vote against Charleston's wishes wc are Justly punished. Let us hasten, good people, to repudiate this act of rebellion and humble ourselves and put our mouths in the du?t and in sackcloth and ashes repent. Let us implore for restoration or the old alliance, ana airaln work to gether for ourselves;' playlnc Into each other's hands, regardless or the Interest* of the other thlrtv-threc counties. And If any of the thirty-three raise hand or voice against u* we will put them to shame Hnd confusion with clamor ol sectionalism and narrow minded hatred of our beautiful cupital and our queenly metropo lis." That is the gist of this remarkable "concensus of public opinion" In Columbia. It ought to be put before every man In Mouth Carolina and to be long remembered. IT the "old alliance" is restored we shall watch with Interest to see If It can again work and control the votes, the treasury and the policy of a hundred thousand free while deinocrat& The Citadel Vote.

Bad Place to Throw .Hatches. Edgefield Advertiser. Mr. Freeman B. Thomas keeps a store at Red Hill In our county; one day last week lie weighed out some powder to a customer and in pouring back the overplus spilled a few crams on the top of the keg; that night ho opened the store, and after lighting a lamp threw the match behind him. and as 111 luck would have It. the burning match fell on the keg of powder?Immediately there was an explosion which rent the building, blowing walls apart and causing the roof to fall.
