We had little to say about the so called sensation in Columbia, and. having said that little, we were silent. We recognized Capt. Lips comb's legal right to remove his clerk, and we felt, too, that he had violated no Democratic principle in the exercise of that right. True, the Nabob of the News and Courier hammered loudly upon the seventh plank in the Democratic platform, which prescribes that, in minor offices, there shall be "a fixed ten ure of office, and no removals except for cause." But that plank leaves the Secretary, after all, the only judge as to the existence of a cause, and it nowhere requires him to publish that cause to the world. Feeling that it was unjust to im pugn the motives and impertinent to demand the cause that led the Secretary of State to discharge a elerk in discharging his duty, we merely said, "N. G. G. says the re moval caused a sensation in Colum hia, because Mr. Robertson was an efficient officer. Has that gentle. man any ownership in the office be cause he has served there six years? Or should he be perpetuated in office on the ground of efficiency ? We think not." We thought we ere stating sound democratic doc trine; and if we were not, we have read the teachings of the political fathers, to little purpose. But the Orangeburg Times and Democrat, taking our words as a text, discourseth thus: "Does the HERALD apply the above reasoning to its own affairs ? Would it discharge a good, faithful printer because he had served effici ently for six years to make room for a '"Dew hand?" We think not. According to its reasoning the people of Newberry County should transfer their patronage from the HERALD to its competitors, the News and the~ Obsirver, not because .the HERALD has not been an "efficient" guardian of the people's rights, but simply because it has enjoyed their patronage for many years and that it is fair play to let others have it awhile. So far as the removal of Mr. Robertson is concerned, we know nothing about it, but we would 2 regret.very- much to see the civil service of South Carolina prostitut ed by making the positions under it the reward for advancing the in terests of any political aspirant. Better, far better, that an officer "be perpetuated in office on the ground of efficiency" than that lie be removed to make room for sqpne personal favorite of the party hay the appointing power." Argument is not needed to show that what tihe Times says about a "faithful printer" and tile Newberry .~' newspapers, has not the remotest likeness to the subject in hand, or that there is not the faintest ana logy between the position of a printer and a political office. The fact that the Democrat takes issue with us does show, however, that it believes that six years service gives the clerk "ownership in the office," a~nd that Mr. Robertson should have been "perpetuated in office on the around of efficiency." There is no escape from this position. Strange doctriue for a newspaper that sails under Democratic colors ! D)oes the discriminating editor of tile Times regard "efficiency" as the sole. or even the chief, official virtue? Uas it fellowed its doctrine to its legitimate conclusion ? IIas it seen that that doctrine is at once unwise and undemocratic ? .Let us see. You perpetuate the clerk in office on the ground of' "efficiency." Very good, proceed. Efficiency is as meritorious in one officer as in au other; go you perpetuate t'ie Secre tayof State in office, on the ground of efficiency; and, going still farther, you apply the same rule to the other State officers. Pres to!Admirable ! TYou have rendered -political elections unnecessary, and "removed the offices beyond tile reach of the people-who. of course. have no interest in themi! You haemade a privileged class and gvnthe government aimonarchical Ins and the Outs of a monarchy the officeholders and the people; and the Ins may contemptuously snap their fingers in the faces of the people, and say, in the elo quent words of Vanderbilt, "The public be damned?" Admirable dloctrine ! Just and wise D)e miocracy ! Civil service bosh ! As our esteemed contemporary has disclaimed the Democrat half of c its head, why not go a step farther, I and adopt this most appropriate f motto, Tempora mutantur. 1 "I Don't Remember." WASINGTOx. June '1.-Mr. Mer rick continued his argument in the Star-route case to-day, and upon taking up the subject of the "J. B. 1 B." check remarked that it. was t due to Mr. Bedford to say that t there was no testimony in or out of this case that in any way implicated or involved him in Star-route mat ters. Mr. Belford was an honora- c ble gentleman holding a high posi tion in public life, and as current rumors might be calculated to do him some damage, he (Mr. Merrick) made these remarks in reparation for any- wrong done to him. Mr. Merrick then took up the evidence relating to the Dorseys. and pointed out the improbabilty and inconsis tency of their several statements. After referring to the so-called "Red Book?" of S. W. Dorsey which had not been produced, he proceeded to show how Rerdell's statements with regard to them were corroborated by circumstances and other evi dence. Toward the close of the af ternoon he imitated Ingersoll's re cent figure of speech with re gard to the burial of Rerdell by giving similar fanciful descriptions of the burial and resurrection of S. W. Dorsey. "Since they had be gun to bury men," he said, he might as well follo* it up. IIe would bury Dorsey alongside of Rerdell. His fellow- conspirators should be mourners over them. le would erect an arch, one end rest ing on the grave of Dorsey and the other end on that of Rerdell, and then on the keystone of the arch should be written the epitaph: 'They were delightful and lovely in their lives and in death they were not parted.' " Giving a peculiarly lugubrious and sing-song intonation to his voice, Mr. Merrick continued : "And if, notwithstanding counsel's prayers, Gabriel when he passed over those graves should blow, and the corrupt and buried Dorsey should arise an immortal spirit and come into that last Grand Court before the Great Searcher of Hearts, before whom we must all appear, and the Great Searcher and All knowing should ask him, 'Were you not in the flesh known as Stephen W. Dorsey?' the spirit would an swer, 'I don't remember!' An uproarious burst of laughter greeted Mr. Merrick's sally, and after vainly rapping for order, Judge Wylie adjourned the court. ARTIFICIAL LIMn PAYMENTS AT LAST.-The comptroller-general to day began sending out notifications to holders of artificial limb claims against the State, informing them that these claims would be p)aid on presentation of orders. On Monday next the 11th the payments will be gin. The amount appropriated for this purpose is $7,000. So far claims have been allowed to the extent of $6,310, but others yet unallowel considerably exceed the appropria tion. A meeting of the board, (con .sisting of the Governor, comp troller-general and chairmnan of the State board of health,) will be held in July, and at this meeting many claims not yet p)assed upon will be considered. The p)lan of the comnp troller's office is to pay claims in the order in which they were pre sented. Hence all the claims al lowed will be paid and $690 of those which may be allowed in July. The remainder of the later claims will have to await payment until an additional appropriation can be made fo'r the purpose. The follow ing are the amounts allowed for the purchase of artificial limbs of differ ent kinds: For amputation above the knee $100, below the knee $75; for amp)utation above the elbow $60, below the elbow $40. The largest amount of any single claim so far allowed is .$200.-N. G. G. in News and Co:urier-.. SERvED -I RIGHT.-The Lan taster Ledger says: "A man by the name of Lee Beaty', who lives in Union County, N. C.. was taken from .his horse one day last week., in the upper part of this county, by four or five young men and severe ly whipped. The young men did not disguise themselves, but did the work in day-light. The cause assigned is that Beaty had been making loose remarks about some nice young ladies in the neigh-. borhood, a thing which should not be allowed in any community." CIVIL SERICE REFOuR.-WAsH-. INGTON, June 7.-The civil service commission gives notice that comn petitive examinations for admission to public service will be held be-1 tween the 10th of June and 3d day of July at the principal cities in the Northern and Western States. Any1 person wishing to be examined for service ini any department in Wash ington should now send a written re quest to the civil service commission for the proper application b)lanks, which will be supplied.1 The graduates of Harvard, Yalei and Princeton, entering the minis try, are said to have fallen off from< 33 to 8 per cent. in a century '-The men becoming ministers are. - in many cases, not men with stuff1 enough in them to succeed in the calling which they have chosen. It seems to be a difficult thing to induce young men to study theolo gy. We regret that the infirmities of age and severe bodily afflction have forced the senior of the Gaffnev Carolinian to give up journalism.1 Brother Britton has our sympathies. Gen.

Steps, of Greenville County was drowned last Saturday in at empting to swim across a mill >ond 150 yards wide. The citizens of Laurens are open ng the channel of Little River. and A Fire Department at Last. The citizens' meeting that was held in the Opera House 31onday afternoon to consider the propriety and feasibili ty of establishing a fire department, was not unusually large; but it was composed of thoughtful men who knew their minds. including nearly all the large tax-payers of the town. It was not one of your soda water meetings, all foam and splutter; quite otherwise. Y. J. Pope. Esq., was called to the chair and D. O. Herbert. Esq., elected Secretary. The chairman then stated that tl engine which has been on trial here, with 1,000 feet of hose and two reels, including freight, can be laid down at the depot for $4,G20-to be atiU ini six annual instalments, at 7 per ent. That three tanks of about 60, 000 gallons capacity each, can be made on the public square for $900. making the total cost $5,520. That the present revenue of the town is just stilicient to meet its ordinary expenses; that the Council have reached the legal limit of a two mills tax; that they have no authority to issue bonds or levy a special tax; and they therefore thought it proper to refer this matter to the citizehs. IIe stated farther, that a tax of one mill would yield about >1,000 a year, the taxable pro perty of the town being somewhat tnore than $1.000.001). He stated that a paved rork-wav would be constructed from the Engine-hottse to one tank, and the mud would thus be no hindrance. That the annual expense of keeping up the department would not be great and could be paid out of the ordinary revenue of the town. It was ascertained that the capacity of the engine is 325 gallons per minute, and that it will throw through a 903 hose, feet about 225 gallons a minute exhausting a 00,000 gallons tank in about four hours. . Mr. Mower moved "That the Town Council be authot ized and directed to apply to the Legislature for permission to levy a special tax of one mill an mally for seven years, for the purpose of establishing a fire department for the town of Newberrv, including the right on the part of the Council to is sue bonds or make other satisfactory arrangements with seller of supplies for department." The resolution was adopted unanitnoosly and without dis cussion-in the midst of applause. 'Tis a consummation devoutly to be wished. "A Blessing in Disguise." 481 ADELPHI ST., BROoKLYN, N. Y., March 29, 1881. No family should be without ALLcoCK's PoRoUs PLASTERS; their healing powers are wonderful and their efficacy far reaching and lasting. For years past I have seen and known them to cure and relieve the most obstinate and distressing cases of rheum atism, kidney complaint, bronchitis, neural gia, lumbago, inflammation of the lungs and throat, paralysis, asthma, spinal weakness, and coughs and colds. In my own case they have afforded me almost instant and permanent relief. ly friends consider them an invaluable and speedy remedy for all kinds of aches and pains. They are a bless ing in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if she values her peace and comfort and freedom from nerv ous exhaustion and other ailments. As a strengthening plaster, also for backaches and weaknesses, they have no equal. I have never yet found a plaster so efficacious and stimulating, or to give so much general satis faction. .Used in connection with BRAND RETH'S universal life-giving sand lie-healing PILLS, no one need despair of a speedy re storation to good sound health. MRS. E. TOMPKINS. ONE TRIAL. itf you have been using other Plasters one trial~of ALLOcK's POROUS will convineyou of their wonderful superiority. Takte no ether so called porous plasters that claim to be better, they are all frauds gotten up to sell on the world-wide reputation of the genuine article. .April 3, 14-3m, cow. CommnerciLal.

ANOTHER Quiet peace had. reign ed so long that nobody. ever had an idea of its being interrupted ; but like everything else it haditsday. Observing an opening for a good Cash Trade by producing goods at city prices appeared on the scene, determined to pive a death-blow to high prices. lie was not disappointed, for an ap preciative public has conceded that _ he has revolutionized prices, and* brought them down to their lowest ebb. MISTAKES WILL HAPPEN Anticipating an unusually la e Spring trade he has overshot t mark at last with all his caution, and purchased entirely too much. The great bargains thrown before '. him while in the markets, were har'd to refuse, so in order to make a gap in his stock, hie will for the .next 30J, days have a offering bargains to such an extent that competition ivill hide its head.

That argument is C1ash Down, Qnd invariably "knocks the persimmons." I wish to remind you that I intend to make myself necessary to the good people of this section, by sharing my' close bargains wvith them, believing in QUICK SALES and SMALL MARGINS.
