Carrying cncealed weapon-.
The recent killing of Hon. Robt
A. Alston, of Atlanta, by Cox, ha,s
aroused the Georgia papers aid
people to the evil of crrying con
cealed weapons. The subject has
been taken up by the papers of this
State, where Col. Alston was well
known, and strong measures are
called for to suppress this abomi.a
ble practice. Georgia has a law
providing for severe punishment of
any person found carrying a con
cealed deadly weapon. We ougi,
to have a similar law in this State.
A large proportion of men, espe
cially young men, carry pistols.
Many of them do so from a habit
acquirsd during the troublous times
just after the var, when life wa
unsafe and there was really an ex
cuse for it. But there is no excus,
for continuing the practice. A man
who carries a pistol is ever ready to
use it; he uses it Qften in a heat of
passion, without justifncation, and
is afterwards sorry for it. It is not
one time in ten thousand that a
-nan is called upon to use a pistol
in self-defense. That, however, is
always the plea set up when one is
tried for murder. And the Courts
have been inclined to construe this
plea very liberally.. The contrary
should be the case. The very fact
that one carries a pistol should be,
and ws believe is in strict law, a
presumption of naalice-of an intent
to kill; and the burden should be
on the slayer to' prove no malice,
and to give some justifiable cause
for going armed.
Whatever laws may be passed on
the subject of carrying concealed
weapons, however severe the penal
ty may be, the practice will not be
stopped till public opinion frowns
it down.
Pedestrianism.
The six days walking match be
tween O'Leary, Ennis, Harriman
and Rowell closed in Gilmiore's
Garden, New York, the 1.5th. All
are Americans except Rowell, who
is an Englishman. OYLeary won
the belt in London in 1878.
as the champion walker of the
world, and he was the favorite
among betting characters when the
late match was opened. After a
few days walk, however, hc was ta
ken sick, and, inding it impossible
to accomplish anything, dropped
out of the race. Rowell, the En.
glishman, kept ahead from the be
ginning, and wound up with 500
miles, Ennis making 473, and Har
riman 450. The race excited a
wonderful interest; the Garden
was crowded and thousands failed
to gain admittance. The terms of
the match were that the gate money
should be divided among the con
testants who should make 450
miles ; 50 per cent., with the chamn
Spion belt, to go to the winner, 30
per cent. to the second man, and 20
per cent. to the third. By this ar
rangement RIowell gets $20,000.
(clear of all expenses,) Ennis $15,
000, and Harriman $10,000. Dur
ing the six days walk the pedes
trians were off the track an average
to each of only 36 hours, which they
gave to sleep.
Walking matches are just now a
mania in the Northern cities. Hun
dreds of women have entered the
arena, and a few weeks ago a Mrs.
Pitdey, (Madame Anderson) walked
2,709 quarter miles in as many con
secutive quarter hours, walking day
and night, taking her sleep either
while actually walking or during
the fewv minutes left to her after
each quarter mile.
"The Poor Negro."
While the. Republicans in Con
gress were able, by reason of supe-1
rior numbers. to elect coiored1 men
as clerks, doorkeeper-s, &c., they
failed to do so. Therefore, Rainey
shouldn't consr it much of a comn-1
plimni-t or kindness that the Re
ublicans of the House ran him for]
Cerk at the present session. They
knew his Democratic opponent
would be elected. -
Congress.
The 46th Congress convened in I
extra session the 18th. The cause of
the extra session was, that the 45th
Congress failed to pass the Legisla
tive and Judicial appropriation bills.
IThe reason these bills were not
passed is, that the Republican Sen
ate refused to agree to the provi
sions in them abolishing the juror's
test oath, and repealing the law au
thorizing the President to appoint
supervisors of Elections, and the
law am.orizing the use of troops at
the polls: anO. the Democratic
House refused to pass the bills
without these provisions. Now.
that House and Senate are both
Democratic the bills will be passed,
and the test oath and the Supervi I
sors will be abolished, and we will
have no more military bulldozing
in elections.
The candidates for Speaker of
the House were Randall, of Penn
sylvania, Democrat, Blackburn, of
Kentucky, Democrat, and Garfield,
of Ohio, Republican. In the Dem
ocratic caucus, the 17th, Randall
beat Blackburn-75 to 57. When
Congress met the next day the
votes were: Randall, 144 ; Gar
field, 125; Wright, Greenbacker,
13; Kelly, 1. Randall has served
four years as Speaker, and has
proved himself honest, capable and
upright; a foe to all corruption and
jobbery, and a patriot in the truest
sense.
It is not expected that anything
will be done at this extra session
exclept to complete the business left
unfinished by the-last Congress.
Memorial Day in Columbia.
The 10th of May will be a nota
ble day in Columbia. It will be
"Memorial Day--the day set apart
for the celebration of the heroism
and valor of those who died in de
fense of the "lost cause", of those
whose deeds should ever be kept
green and fresh in our memory.
Columbia, where so many of these
brave soldiers find their last rest
ing-place, has ever'y year since the
war commemorated this day with
suitable honors. Orators chosen;
for the occasion recount the pa
triotism and bravery of the dead
Confederates, and the fair hands of
the ladies bedeck their graves with
the flowers of spring.
The next Memorial Day will wit
ness the unveiling of the Confede 1
rate Monument. For years the la-|
dies of the State have been raisingj
funds for completing this monu-<
ment, and it will be- completed by -
the 10th of May. It will stand in
the State House yard, and will be
a noble work of art. Gen. John S. I
Preston. of Columbia, will deliver
the oration of the day. There willr
be a lar-ge gathering of people from
different portions of the State to 1i
witness the ceremonies.
The County Fairs.
'The Secretaries of the County
Agricultural Societies, or FairAs
sociations are requested to send thej I
date when the fairs in the respec- I
tive Counties will be held to T. W.
Holloway, Esq., Secretary of the
State Agiicultural and Mechanical
Society, at Pomaria, S. C. It is thej
purpose of Mr. Holloway to publish j
this information with the PremimI
List of the State Society, if the ne
cessary particulars be furnished in t
time. The advantages of placing t~
before the whole State, and before a
our sister States, the leading facts I
regarding the County Fairs are too a
patent to need description here. It I
is hoped, therefore, that Mr. Hollo- I
way's request will be complied with
promptly."
The above is from the ey:s and t<
Courier, and so far as it relates to
our own County Fair, we feel satis
fied that the energetic officers will
do all that is asked in the p,remises.
In this connection we would ask if
any steps have been taken to secure
suitable grounds for the next Fair. ti
By all means this shiould be done n
in proper time. If the means can
be raised it would be well that the a
Society buy a piece of ground inh
a convenient locality so that per- d
manent buildings and pens can be b
erected. We look forward with no a
little interest to the next annual 0
gathering of people and products.

WASHINGTON, D. C., al
March 19, 1879. tI
Yesterday saw the opening of a*

ian half a generation. Boys who

)f Mr. Raudall it is hardly necessary
o say anything. Ie is an admirable
peaker, and perhaps, next to Sena
or Blaine, the best informed ian in
he country in general politics.
The first question in all minds now
s that raised by Senator Beck, whe
her or not Congress shall proceed
vith general legislation or only pass
lie two defeated appropriation bills
uid the reform measnres attached to
bem. It is noticed that the two pro
)ositions so far formally made among
D)enocratic members to thus restrict
egislation, have not been acted on.
Phe Republicans, on the contrary,
inanimously and enthusiastically vi
ed, at their lIuse C:us, against
roing into ge1eral legislation. Evi
lently it will gratify that party if
-igid i.quiry into the past, and tho
-ough reformvation can be rut vff for a
eason.
Spsaker Randall was serenaded last
iight by a iarge numb-r of his parti
an friends, and he made a speech in
lhieh he claimed that the repeal of
he Federal election laws was in the
uterest of Lational peace. He% was
,reeted with great enthusiasm. I
bould not fail to mention that his
riuaiph has given a new impetus to
he Tilden Presidential stock, and to
L re.idential speculation in particular.
The case of breach of promise of
rarriage, the "Widow Oliver" against
1iniua Cameron, has been on trial
icre for several days, and is the sen
ation. Gen. Butler represents Mr.
Jameron, and he cross-examined the
ylaintiff yesterday .in a way which
vould have made a modest womau
vish to withdraw from the suit. The
ase is developing some filth, and pro
)ably a good deal of untruth. Mr.
liver, the "late" husband of the
-Widow" appearel in Court to asto
iish his wife yesterday, and she was
nade to identify him.. This was ra
her a damper, amd it is said the
*widow" would be willing to settle
he case now for a small consideration.
It is worthy of note that the iaii
,ration to this couutry is ou the in
rease very largely. The figures at

Teachers' Association.
As something new is always in order we
propose to say a )ew word. on the subject
of the formation of a Teachers Association
in Nwberry County. The subject was agi
t tel to some extent during tihe week of
otir .eneral examinatioj, and the proposed
ino:l:ltion of sitch all Associ:ation met wi;tlh
thw ieiity approval of all who were intet
vienl%rf on the subject.
hlg grealv enlcouaged, a meeting of
thwe tcrs of Newberry County was called
to 1e hei'd on S.turd:v, s1b of March, to
t:ake into vonsideration the ini.ortanee of
f0rmning such all Associaion. But in con
sc(ieice of miany of the teachers not hav
it.-, been apprised of this meeting, and of
ot; rs who were not able to get to New
berry on that day, the tiumber of teachers
presont at this meeting was comparatively
snill, yet those prestnt were not at all dis
col:.Lged, feeling that all who understood
the object in view were alike fnvorable to
t1e inovement. After having temporarily
ogi:.zed the meeting adjourned to meet
in the Femiale Academy at Newberry, on
Saturday, -2nd March.
This meeting was held at the time and
place appointed, but owing to the number
prese:nt not being sufliciently great, it was
nilaniniously agreed that the permanent or
gallization of' the Association be postponed
until Our next uieeting, which will be held
in the Female Academy at Newberry, on
Saturday, 5th of April, at 101 A. M.
We already have the names of a goodly
inumtier of both male and feiale teachers
on our roll, and hope to see them as well
a. all others who flel interested in the
movement present at our next meeting.
The prime object of this Association is the
general improvement in the profession of
teaching, and also the encouragement of
education in Newberry County. These as
well as other objects of the Association will
be fully explained at our next meeting.
Our past meetings have been very pleas
ant, and whenl our Association shall have
been fully organized they will become more
pleasant as Well as very instructive.
No teacher who loves his or her profes
sion cm afford to feel indifferent towards
any movement which has for its object the
encouragement and promotion of the edu
cation of the children and youth of our
comIlrb'.

Jeff David Not a Murderer.
Hampton's Clemency Justified by Recent
Developaments-Arrest of the Real Mur
derers of the Franklins.
DONALDSVILLE, March 18.-1 sup
pose that most of your readers have
heard of the cold-blooded niurder
which took place iu this county on the
20th of December, 1877, aind which is
well known in this up-country as the
Franklin murder. Jeff David was
convicted at Abbeville as the perpe
trator of this horrible crime, and sen
tenced to be hanged. The Governor
gave hitu several respites, and he was
finally sent to the Penitentiary for
safe keeping, and perhaps the result
was a commutation of sentence to im
prisonment for life.
From a report brought to this towm
this morning, it appear-s that Joe Ar
nold is the murderer, and not Jeff
David. A Mr. Pleasant Sullivan, of
Laurens, has been working patiently
at the case for some time. Sullivan
suspected that .Joe Arnold was
guilty of the murder. and so direct
ed special attention to developing
evidence to confirm his suspicions.
Somte time after the murder, and per
baps after the conviction of Jeff
David, he hired the woman who was
iving' with Joe Arnold as his wife, at
hie time of the murder, to cook for
'im. He, by various means, sue
eeded in gaining her confidence, and
tfew days ago she came out and told
he whole story, implicating herself,
Toe Arnold and another negro man,
amed Fisher.
A warrant was obtained for Arnold
otd Fishier, who were in Ander-son.
['hey were digging a well when the
>osse came to arrest them. Fisher
vas drawimg out the dirt and Arnold
vas down in the well; the former
nade his escape after being pursued
ora mile or so. The ewell proved a
afe prison for the latter, whence he
as taken and lodged in the jail at
inderson C. H.
Mr. Sullivan went home, informed
he woman of the arrest of Arnold,
nd secured her by giving he rlodg
ngs in the same house with her for
sr husband.
Eyery one must certainly commend
he wisdom of the Governor in this
ase. Had Jeff David been hanged
11 would have regretted it.
