the friends of prohibition do not act witti dls- ol cretion, there is danger that the liquor ele- v: ment will again restore the barroom system Tl In this State. The dispensary system is do- w lng about as well as any new law under similar circumstances could have done, but those rn who made fortunes out of the old bar-room si system refuse to admit this, and keep up an n< agitation against It In hopes of again having It an opportunity of making money out of the I liquor traffic. The dlspensaryites aud prohl- a bitlonists are natural allies, but If the prohl- H bltionists are not exceedingly cautious, the A liquor element will make cats-paw of them, cc A great deal of the stir now going on against hi the dispensary system Is entirely unneces- bi sary. Those who desire to bring back the 11- n< cense system of selling liquor are at the bot- In torn of it. They rip and snort when any-1 thing connected with the dispensary is the) to least out of way, and pronounce the whole) rt system a failure from beginning to end. But Tl they do not measure other lines of business I th , bv the same rule. When men conected with j lie banks, stores, &c., go wrong they denounce , vc men. Wbeu men connected with the dis pensury go wrong, they denounce the system, by why this distinction without a difference? th Thev would not gain anything by abolish- w< Ing the banks, stores, but limey couiu in get the dispensary system abolished there pi would be a chance for private citlzenH to re make money out of the liquor traffic?Voice of the People. an W The liquor men of this State seem to .have a , gained an unaccountable influence over some a I of our preachers. That Influence Is so great so 1 that some ministers of the gospel have in tbe r|, jg&L sacred temples openly Inveighed against the BBc dispensary, for the alleged or assummed br reason that by abolishing the dispensary we jj* would have prohibition. d< The First Presbytery of the Associate Reformed church, so far forgot itself at a recent meeting as to adopt the following resolu- at Hon : 111 "Resolved 2. That it 1b the duty of every Pi session at once to proceed In a constitutional m , way to discipline every member of its con- Gi gregation who buys whisky at a dispensary I < as a beverage, no matter how moderately he rn may mean to use it, and also to discipline Ju every member who drinks Intoxicating 11- 1). quor as a beverage be It ever so moderately." to Under the circumstances, It seems to the Press and Banner that tbe resolution has br more of a political signllticance than anything else. gr This newspaper can very well understand gr why the advocates of the open bars should jj* oppose the dlpensary. Bat when men who vj are licensed to preach the gospel of Jesus Id Christ Join with the,barroom people In a demaud for a "restoration of the greatest evil re that has ever afflicted any people, we can ac- fa count for their action only on Insincerely of purpose or Ignorance of the matter of which < they speak. to Taken with the fact that the church for all ] time has tolerated the bars, and, so far as we j 0f know, hasnot excommunicated anybody for nc the moderate use of the beverage,the resolu-1 Tj tlon is plainly against the dispensary. The church,as far as we pre informed, and so far as the resolution goes, does not now propose j to discipline members for using liquor as a! beverage, except when bought at a dispen-) sary. It is, therefore, the buying at a dis-1 pensary.and not the use of the liquor that' gives offence. ^ We can respect an honest bar keeper, who ^ openly and clearly makes a demand for the er restoration of a business which he thinks ol should be legitimate, but we are obliged to have little respect for either the Intelligence JV or theslncerety of the man who proclaims er for prohibition while denouncing the dispensary. bj If a man Is Judged by his company, what wi shall we think of the christian men who ^ Join in the demand of the bar keepers, that the dispensary be closed? No man, with the re- so cent light before us, cen think that a hundred ^ dispensaries which are kept open ten hours a day, and closed every Sunday, are a worse or b< a greater evil than a thousand bars, which are ! he kept open lor eighteen hours a day, and which Cc are not always kept closed on Sunday. br js< ; be Interewtiue Paper. ] I H Aside from the Interesting advertisements, j (l( locals.and county correspondence and various miscellany, we present pages of a variety of news matter, among which may be found ; many readable articles of occurrences on ch land and sea?of storm and flood?of wreck Cc and death.

CriliclNed. Greenwood, H. 0? October 10,1S9(>. Wbile at Abbeville lust week I went down id inspected the Cotton Mill. It was my rst visit to tbe Mill. If I am a competent dge, I pronounce the building, which Is aarly completed, first class. The walls are nootb and strait. The mill Is three stories, Igh, the mill is all covered except the boiler 3d engine rooms. The rooting is niado of ir and gravel. The carpenters were busy ,ylng the floors. The woodwork were being tinted. Another large crowd of hands were iisy unaer me Bupi-rvmiwu v,. ccavating and grading a reservoir to hold ater. The operative's houses were going up ipldly all around. Altogether when comteted I pronounce the enterprise all right ad an honor to Abbeville. The mill buildig will noon be ready for the machinery, ot knowing, I will not attempt to slate the umber of looms arid spindles that is to be lit in the mill. I am in favor of our people r the Soutb building cotton mills, &c. AbbeIHe deserves credit for building this mill hey could have built It long ago If they ould. While In Greenwood Saturday afternoon, ly attention was attracted to an unusual gbt. When the down train arrived, two egroes got off the train, one tied with a rope, le other leading him. Upon investigation found John Gllrenth had sold John Puckett horse upon which there was a mortgage, e run off and went to Anderson. Capt. uetln appointed Will Puckett, colored, as instable. He went to Anderson, and after a ?lf mile race he captured his man and ought him here on the train Saturday. A >vel sight to see oue negro leading another ropes.

Mr. Editor. I see In your last Issue of the ress and Banner, an open letter to THIanltes signed A. D. V. recomendlng John *ry Evans forjudge of the Eighth circuit, ion't know who A. D. V. Is but I will re? lnd him It Is not customary to elect a man idge who does not reside In the circuit. A. V. undoubtedly wrote the arilcle referred I , as a burlesque. John Gary Evans ought prosecute him for slander. He referred to jneral M. \V. Gary, as our uncrowned hero, ave old Mart Gary. His resting place !s J rtainly uncrowned, for there is no mark or 1 ace to show which Is Gen. Marl Gary's ave No one can positively say which is his ' ave. It is a shame to let the dust of such a >ro,as Mart Gary lie among thorns and lers as his does. Then, too, to think, heproded sohandsomly In his will for the markg of his, and his brother's graves. 1 think . D. V. ought to write an apology for bis tide in last week's paper. I am in favor of , form, and will say, that it was those in vor of reform that elected Judge Earle ' nlted State Senator. I repeat. It, A. I).
