Hicks's Forecasts for October. October begins bright and cool, growing warmer in west, with sec ondary Btorms crossing the coun try from 2nd to 4th. Frosty nights will follow. Another warm storm wave will start from weBt about 5th, bringing rain along its path to the east during 6th to 10th. Cold and frost will attend clearing condi tions following. The 13th aud 14th are reactionary storm date*, with Full Moon 14th. Cold and frosty weather will follow storm j'lurrieH, about these dateB. The 18th to 23rd is a storm period affected by both Venus and Mercury. Storms on lakes and soap. This i? especially true of the reactionary storms on and touching the 25th at>d 20th. Venus on 31BI, Mercury on 20th, New Moon on 28th. and "Vulcan," 30th, compose a combination that renders the closing days of the month precarious on land and sea.

"Semphronicus" Writes of jtlie Patriotic Living and Pa triotic Dead. MR. EDITOR: The recent letter, of J. E. Tindal to a friend on the verge of Independentism, was the soundest, mott conservative, and patriotic article that has gone ! through the South Carolina press in the last twelve months. A care- ' ful scrutiny fails to reveal the leabt discord, or discover the , slightest note out of harmony. There is'not the slightest sugges tion, on the part of Mr. Tindal, of envy, disappointed ambition, or of wounded pride. His position Wffords a common standing ground for peace-loving men of both fac tions who hold the welfare of our old State in. higher esteem than mere factional allegiance, or the pet schemes of party bosses. "I stand for my old State, for ber peace, her progress, and prosperity. I love her people and her history. * * * Our interests are the , same, our principles are ?ealy the same, our lineage is the same, our history is one common heritage. We are one people, and selfish am bition of individuals must not divide us." This, is indeed a grand sentiment born of a noble mind; the product of a noble soul. Truly, J.E. Tindal is a gentleman of the highest or der ; a patriot of the loftiest type. I notice that "Swartz," who, if 1 I correctly opine, is an old friend and acquaintance, got off some pleasantry af the expense of Bro; ! Moon. I have but one criticism to offer. "Swartz" was too easy on him. He "orter,r made'the furfly, aud laid the hide open at every crack. Auy old moss-back who thrusts himself before the people for simple notoriety, and tries to rescue his . am? from the dust of a deserved oblivion, merits all the ridicule and contumely that a dis gusted public sentiment can heap upon him. While looking over some old pa pers the other day, I came aci066 an old copy of the ADVERTISER containing an account of the death of Gen. M. W. Gary. It thrilled my blood to read the eloquent tributes paid to this most honored of Edgefield's sons. I will give to the reader ODIV two quotations out of a great number. I do this to keep before the minds of our young men the name of one worthy of immortal fame in the minde and hearts of his countrymen : "May the spring roses bloom upon his gravo and the turf rest lightly upon his manly form r The earth will take what is mortal to her embrace. But from the clay there shall arise the imperishable memory of one who scorned to be a hypocrite, ask ed only to be painted as he was, and. inflexible in honor and trufh, boro a bold spirit in a loyal brennt I" "Sleep, Uenarftl, in pence, your bright gleaming blade Rhone o'er many a red battle plain; The charge of your squadrons, thc e-beers of your men, Cannot /<nll you lo glory agiin. No! never again ?bn|l thc proud eagle Hoar ; He forever bas folded hf s wings; IUH aerie is yiicnnt, his weal or his woe Rest? alone with the great King of Kings." SEMPHRONICUS. Wises Ferry, S. C.
