In order that our people may know wnat is golngon in Washington, we have given mnch space to the report from the capital. We all remember how fully and thoroughly our politicians endorsed Cleveland during the campaign, and they recollect bow earnestly they worked for his nomination and election* We all recollect how kindly Governor Tillman spoke of bis predecessors in State officesand that he has always been generous In propositions to divide all the state offices equally with Tillmanlte and anti-TlUmanlteOf course our readers will distinctly recol> lect that our Congressman has always been fair and impartial In bis advocacy of a division of the offices, and that he never attended a dark lantern midnight meeting, to parcel J out postoffices to Alliancemcn. / The people of the whole country know that / Congressmen Johnstone and Hemphill were /defeated In the election for Congressmen by distingulBhed National politicians who knew more of the needsof the country than did the eld Congressmen, Tbey having learned some* . ? thing from the Ocala and St. Louis Conven tions knew more about what the people wanted, and hence had greater ability to serve tbem. It was therefore exceedingly naughty for the retiring Congressmen to tell Cleveland about the superior fitness of the Incoming cnnffrpuimfln for dividing out the offices which were to be given lo simon-pure Democrats and anil-Til I maul tea. Seriously, if our ex-Congressmen don't mind what they are about Gideon's Hand will be knocked into a cocked bat, and midnight cancuses lighted by tallow candles, may become entirely powerless in making postmasters. The Dispensary. While we think that the dispensary Is much better than the licensed bars, and while we see do special difference, as a matter ol principle, in the State selling whiskey Itself and licensing otheis to do it, yet we think that prohibition is better than either the bars or the dispensary. ] This county certainly is a prohibition coun- , ty, if the recent primary election means any thing, and it seems to us that prohibitionists, on principle, should not sign petltons for the , establishment of County dispensaries. In saying this, we are not expressing any captious objection to the dispensary law or < thnan who mav be trusted with its excu Hon. ' I We believe the dispensary Is better than the I licensed bars, and we believe that problbi- 1 tlon 1b better than the dispensary. For these reasons we hope that those In authorlty may be willing to give the pronibltlonlsis what they have asked for. If any community prefers to have the dispensary, why let it. have It, but prohibitionists want prohibition, and desire the rights ' granted them under the law. ?? Give More Fact*?Characterize I.e**. In writing a notice of a sermon, Instead of 1 saying that It was eloquent please give some Idea &8 to what the preacher said. All ser- | raons are eloquent, able and earnest?that is taken for granted. Instead of naming the chapter, verse and I book from which the learned divine preach- ! ed, please give the words of the text. It Isn't i every reader who has the time to run home, i bunt up his Bible and then spend tirteen ' minutes looking for it. If be had the time, It i Is altogether probable that he wouldn't spend < it solving riddles or In hunting for a needle in J a bay stack. < i THE CARE OF FISH, 5 j Some Practical SngffeHtlomi ns to the * Requirements of the Pretty Pets. c Owing to the fact tbat'nearly everybody in ' town bus one or more gold fish, the following extract from a letter from a friend who has , been successful in keeping these pets, will be ' of Interest. No pet Is prettier, is easier kept, or affords more pleasure than a globe containing gold fish, and with proper cure they will live for twenty years, but ll neglected, or j kept In unhealthy quarters, they die without ' much ado about it. Our friend says: Your aquarium or globe must contain water, aquatic plants and tiBhes in such pro- 1 portion as to be mutually supporting. The { plants contained in It should be sufficiently 1 numerous to liberate or tbrow oil enough oxygen to supply the fish. } A ten cents bunch of aquatic plants which 1 you can procure of Edw. 8. Scbmid, Wash- 3 Ington, D. C? by mall, will be sufficient for a ' two gallon globe, with two to four fish. 1 Should you have a globe without gravel or ' plants, the water must be changed at stated * intervals. Observation will soon show bow . long tbey will go without change of water. 1 When they keep persistently at the surface : Bucking air, it requires changing. ' If properly stocked, that is, not overstocked 1 with flsn, the water need not be changed ex- J cept at long Intervals for cleansing, and may 1 even be carried for years without chanee. The water at all events should never be 1 changed while It remains clear and tbe fish do J not come to tbe surface. Be careful not to introduce more food than ' the fish will eat, as what Is not eaten will tend 1 to foul tbe water, use "lmporteu uenunu foodwhich 1b also put up by Schmid at ten 1 cents per box. A piece no larger tban a silver ten cents, for two small flsh each day Is sufficient. Keep globe in a cool place, and give an abundance of light, air and sun. ERSKINE COLLEGE. Misfortune* Seem Not to come Single- ' handed to the Honored In*tltn> tlon. j, We have already given notice that one of I * the innlde walls of tbe college bad fallen, < doing considerable damage. ( Afterward in getting a shipment of mould- i ing and finishing goods, the team, which was ' attached to tbe wagon that was loaded with < these things at Donalds, became frightened, i ran off, smashed and scattered them along < the roadway. 1 A few days ago. a part of the tower fell, the bricks crushing more or less of the roof, and i <inlno nprhons nt hnr damage. < To add to all these misfortunes the architeot who planned this structure, has deserted the Job, at. d left It for others to straighten out. He bad business of bis own in Washington, and could not come to look after tbe building committee, which needed wise counsel in the hour of their trouble. In fact, he had recelveed moat of his pay and had no great Interest In reparing the damage, which bad resulted to the college. 80UTH CAROLINA PRESBYTERY. Brief Notes of Interest hs to H'hnt Was Done Jn That Body. The South Carolina Presbytery met at Honea Path last Friday.
