These er theories about building up the waste e plces of the South by an ibflux of of Northern capital, are fanciful, and cannot too soon be abandoned- th Thos. who advocate them, seem to co think that by offering a tempting of bait, they can bring Northern B capital into the South very much A as partridges are led into a trap ; A and that; once'here, it will become Fl a part of the wealth of our country. L Such economists have all the faith G and not a little of the folly that N caused Mulberry Sellers to believe S that he could make millions of T money by selling his Salvation for T Sore Eyes. The era of sore eyes failed to come. What we most need is less talk b about Northern capital, and a little i more Southern energy and enter- te pribe; more of a disposition to do ti for ourselves, and less talk about what the North is able to do for us ; more of a spirit pf co-operation, _ and less of that other spirit ,which A says; "Every man for himself, and A devil take the hindmost." A The only way in which we can acquire substantial wealth, is by c bringing money into our Community C in exchange for the products of our C soil, and the fruits of our skill and C ndustry.

Several days bgn the News and Courier published a paragraph about certain giants of Georgia. There is a clerk in one of the dry goods stores in Columbia, formerly a travelling sales man for a Baltimore house, who is, perhaps, the most powerful man in South Carolina. He has lifted 'as much as. 1,604 pounds dead weight with the use of strape. In Sumter and also in Columbia he has on two separate occasions carried a compress ed bale of cotton, weighing 450 pounds, in each hand, across the' street, using a common cotton hook to aid him in holding the bale. He can hold a keg of nails weighing 100 pounds in each hand straightout from the shoulder. Altogether his feats of strength are almost incredible. His muscles are like iron, nod I have seen him lift some weights that would have surpr-sed Samson. ,. C. H. Au old Tar-heel who was "thar" says that at the battle of Chancellors. Ville, while the fighting was raging, Gen. Rhodes rode up to Gen. Ramseur and asked him what time it was. Ramseur, pulling out his old timepiece slowly, said : "General, in such an emergpney as this my old watch never runs." Rhodes "took" right off, and returned to where the bullets were "ticking" the seconds.- Waynesboro Times. STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, COUNTY OF NEWBERRY. In the Master's Court.
