OUR EXEMPTION FROM THE DIS
ASTERS OF NATURE.
In reading so.often lately of great
disasters that have befallen other
countries and communities, the
thought struck us that Newberry,
with many other of the upper coun
ties, has been singularly exempt
from such. We have not had the
opporanity of carefully reviewing
her history with this thought in
mind, but so far as we remember or
have learned from others no over.
whelming caanmity has ever rolled
across her peaceful breast. Isolat
ed cases of destruction of life and
property by the lightning's sudden
flash or the passing breath of some
more than common wind; or it may
be by the mere suggestion of
some plague, have of course oc
curred; and indeed some of her
citizens may have, in exceptionally
unfavorable crop years, more *or
less really felt the pinchings of
poverty. But the record of her past
will be searched in vain, we venture
to say, to find instances, where the
Vis Major has at one fell blow stilled
the whole people by the-awful mani
festation of 'his power. No open
ing earth has ever here yawned for
its human food; we have had no
upheaving mountain ever and anon
toconsume us with eruptions from
its bowels afire with disease; no
angry cyclone has ever, as in some
of her sister counties and in the
neighboring States, swept her fair
fields leaving them waste and bare;
gaunt. famine, malignant plague, or
other noxious pestilence has never
stalked abroad spreading desolation
and despair throughout the land.
Even when the whole country late.
' ly resounded with the shock of arms,
~ewberry was comparatively ex
.empt from hurt to her firesides. . It.
is true that her sons freely perished
on the border, but our hearthstonies
and household gods were left un
touched.
We, in town to be sure, have, of
late, had more than our allotted
* share of disasters by fire, according
to the usual rules of accident; 'but
whether all of them were accidental
or otherwise, none can fairly
be attributed to the Act of God. In
none of them, too, has there been
loss of life and in. most of them
there has been adequate compensa
tion for the loss of property.
We are not able, did we feel dis
posed, to enter into a discussion of
the physiee'l reasons for this exemp
tion from the disasters of Nature;
nor do we feel qualified to preach a
sermon-to account for the moral
aspect of the question by trying to
fathom the ways . of Him whose
paths "are past finding out." We
simply record what seems to us -a
fact-one for which the commonest
grattude compels us to make ac
knowledgment and be grateful.
Verily the good Lord has delivered
us as a county from "lightning and
tempest; from plague, pestilence and
famine; from battle and murder,
and from sudden death." And did
we nots a people often recognize
this fact with grateful hearts, we
would for our base ingratitude de
serve being swept by the hand. of
the Almighty into an oblivion long.
er and deeper than that in which
faithless and haughty Pompeii was
buried by the ashes of Vesuvius.
Spartanburg is certainly a pro
gressive County not alone in what
pertains to her material welfare but
also in -what concerns her intellec
tual and moral prosperity.
She is now .to have a "County
Scientific Convention"; which meets
at Pacolet on the 24th and 25th
instant. The following are the sub
jects for discussion:
'Man's physical constitution in
relation to external nature ;" "Char
acter the result of organization;"
"A knowledge of physiolgy abso
lutely essential to a correct diag
nosis;" "Does the present system
of punishment tend to lessen crime
or to reform the criminal?" "In
dustrial co-operation, the principle
which unites the interests of both
producer and consumer;" and "The
laws governing plant-life and the
elements necessary to its develop
ment."
Prof. DuPre, Senator Moore,
Col. Bobo and many other of her
distinguished gentlemen are to
engage in the discussion.

days, such conventions are refresh

CO'T".
There appears t6 b*great corn
plaint on the p~ar$ ,Eif freign- man"
nfacturers about the manner in
which the American cotton is gath"
ered and prepared for market. It
is estimated that the staple reaches
them adulterated with sand and
>ther foreign matter to an amount
averaging ten per cent of the weight
)f the cotton. No one who is at
all familiar with the average way
in which we handle our great staple,
from the time it is gathered in the
field until it is sold, can wonder at
either these figures or complaints.
While we are glad to think that
eases of deliberate and fraudulent
adulteration are exceptional, we
must admit that there is a degree
:f carelessness exhibited by the
average farmer in the handling o
his crop, the results of which, it
bhey do not naturally suggesi
fraud; at all events materially affecl
the price of American cottor
throughout the world. This care
lessness is exhibited when tht
cotton is picked from the stall
along with the dried leaves and
1imbs or from the ground cov
e d with sand and dirt; when it if
ramped by muddy feet into the
basket, wagon or house;' when it
and after passing through the gin ii
is needlessly exposed to the flying
motes; when in the packing, it if
mixed with trash and again stained
by muddy feet; when after being
packed, it is left-until sold exposed
to all kinds of weather. These are
soro- of the sins of the farmer; we
will not follow the cotton into the
ands of the Railroad and the Com
mission Merchant. It is said thai
this has affected the price of oni
eotton in England half a cent pei
pound as compared with Indiai
otton; in India, the inspection be
ing strict and the penalty for adul
teration heavy.
Much of this evil is traceabb
undoubtedly to that system of ne
gro tenantry which proceeds on the
theory that it is better to tend fort3
acres superficially than twent3
acres well; but our white farmer
are not withott blame.
Our staple is naturally superioi
to the product of any other countr3
and its market value in the worl
should not be depressed througi
our carelessness. There must bE
an improvement in the handling o
our great staple; and if our cottoi
crop is to be as short this year a:
is generally made out, a most favd
rable opportunity is presented fo
the institution of this ieiormation
What little there is to be gathered
and prepared for market, can be
carefully gathered and prepared.
COLUMBI, August 18.-A private
letter from Uniou received in thi!
city giyes the outline of a reporte
murder near that town. The lette:
states that a Mr. Ballew, living abou
five or six miles from Union, having
found out-that the negroes on his
place were stealing his fence rails
went to the house of . one of then
night before last, and told the mar
that he missed his rails, and tha
the thing inst stop. The wife o
the negro beginning to curse hin
Mr. Ballew slapped her, whereupoi
the husbazid caught and held him
while the son got a knife and stab
bed him in the lungs and heart. Mr
Ballew die* instantly. The mai
'gave' himself up, bolta he boy es
caped, and a posse was sent ou1
after him. This is all that ha!
been heard here.
It is freely stated to-day that Mr
J. W. Fry; who has been for severa
years the difperintendent of thi

Fry and President Haskell are botl

A PROt4WENT COLORED TEACH
ER C1I'ICISES THE LATE.NE
GRO CONVENTION.
:Messrs. Editer.--Ya wilesse
allow me room in your-next'week's
issue to express myself in con
demnation of the action of the col
ored convention that assembled in
Columbia on the 18th of July ult.,
internieddling with the Free Sehtool
System of this State.
Sfrs. they have intermeddled with
the Free School System, and have
spoken of it as being an evil in
stead of a biessing to our people.
They have said that inefficent teach
ers are:largely employed on account.
of chedpness, and that the colored
teachers have to se11 their claims at
a considerable discount, to prevent
their starving. While I will not
I say my brethren lie, I will say they
are certainly an ungrateful set of
men. struggling hard against the
truth: It is a matter of fact that
we do sell our claims at a discount,
but it can't be remedied just now,
from the simple fact that when the
present administration went into
action they found the State in debt;
and if they had any Free Schools
at all, they had to run them on a
credit system. But the system is
getting better every day. In
sbme of our counties they have
money on hand to pay every claim
as they are presented.
Now in regard to inefficient teach
ers. and small salaries, there is not
one teacher in the State but will
admit the fact, that the teachers
who have obtained their certificates
under the present administration,
are better than they have been since
the reconstruction. About 1881
Col. Hugh S. Thompson was elect
ed Superintendent of Education.
lie found the system in a manner
dead, and went to work to increase
the efficiency of the teachers
throughout the entire State, he him
self being decidedly one of the best
judges of proficient teachers in the
South. And I don't think I would
be saying too much if I were to say
in the United States. He at once
prepared an examination (written)
for the first, second and third grade
teachers, sent them to each county
throughout the State, for the exam
ination of teachers. As a negro
teacher, I will say that those .who
obtained a certificate under the
examination in question are as pro
ficient, and more so, as those who
complain of their inefficiency. So
much for that. I will now say that
the teachers get better pay, consid
ering circumstances; and it is get
ting better every year. So the ar
raignment, as far as it applies to
inefficient teachers and low salaries
will not hold.
. There is nothing good to be deriv
ed. from our convention any way.
Why ! It does. not properly re
present us. Why are we not pro.
Sperly represented ? Because eight
tenths -of the colored people 'of
Edgefield county dont know that
such a :onvention was ever called
or held. Therefore I am compelled
to dis-pprove of it, and at the same
time regard it a stigma upon the
intelligent and thinking men of our
race in Edgefield county. I am not
with it for more reasons than that.
While I am hewing, let me hew to
the line, and the chips may fall
where they will or may. We
negroes are certainly tired being
led by single idead men, who know
nothing and care nothing about the
interest of the people, as Prof. D.
J. Straker has it, one of the satelli
ties of our race, "if the convention
be composed of good men it will
certainly accomplish something,"
but, in my judgment, cannot with
the present representation. Why
some of the delegates to the con
vention are our old leaders, who
can be bemeaned by the State press
from head to foot. 4nd if each
press had the voice of an angel,
trumpet tongued, they could not
speak 'their condemnation more
loudly than the truth would warrant.
Why I am surprised-at their allow
ing themselves to be delegated to
su.ch a convention. They certainly
ougrht to know that this is the shift
ing scene of the political drama,
and that they have acted their part
and should now disappear from the.
stage; for we have better actors
tiian they have proven themselves
Ito be, such actors as will act well
their part, will do honor to the race,
and at the same time render the
play more interesting and agreeable.
-Now in my conclusion, I look up
on a portion of our representatives
-in the national negro convention,
as nothing more than a ludicrous
and at the same time shanieful
parody upon popular representation.
For those who are acquainted with
the human character, as displayed
in the histories of the nations, know
such men to be the most dangerous
the world ever saw, and the greatest
curse to any form of government
that ever befell it. And before I
would consent to be led one inch
further by such men, I would live,
-die, and rot under the present form
of government, until the great I Am
shall interyene and bring about a
change.
Respectfully,
R. M.

A SINGULAR OPERATION.-A
gentleman in this city received a
communication the other day from
Dr. F. L. Parker, of Charleston, the
well known and successful oculist.
The missive related a most singular
and delicate operation which the
writer has just performed. One of
his patients was troubled with an
affection of an eye, which necesita
ted the removal of half of the con
junctiva or "white" of the organ. Dr.
Parker wished to save the eye intact.
He therefore removed the conjunc
tiva or white of a rabbit's eye, and
with a piece of this filled the vacan
cy made by the absence of the dis.
eased part of his patient's eye. ,Dr.
Parker attended the case carefully
and, much to the surprise of physic
ians and others, the transplanted
part of the rabbit's optic was as
similated by nature, and now the
human eye, once harrassed by a dis.
order. is perfect.-Greenv:ille News.
Judge Jeremiah Black, one of the
foremost of our public men, died at
York, Penn., on Sundny morning
last. He was twice elected Chief
'Justice of the Supreme Court of
Penn., and at the end of the second
term entered President Buchanan's
Cabinet and served throughout the
Buchanan Administration. He
has had no political offBee since;
but has had an extensive lawy
practice. He has, uhowever, kept
up with the political questions
of the day and by his ripe experi
ence and sound judgment greatly
aided their solution.
In speaking of the poisoned
patients the Camden Journal says:
From what we can learn from the
physicians, all of those persons in
Camden who were poisoned recent
ly by eating ice cream, and whc
were so ill when our last report was
published, are on the convalescent
list now, though a few of them are
still very weak. They -all show
signs of having passed through a
terrible ordeal, being very thin and
weak, and almosj as pale as death.
We are all rejoiced to see that no
more deaths occurred, for one time
it seemed as* if it was impossible
for some of them to recover, their
sufferings were so great.
Chesterfield C. H., had her first
homicide for 30 years, on the 16th
inst. It happened near the town.
John Peavy killed James H. Stacy
in a fight with knives, at the house
of one Grant, fathet-in-law of Stacy
-where Peavy was a boarder and
Stacy a visitor. .In separating the
parties, Stacy was pushed out of
doors and went towards his own
house. It was not known that he
was killed until next morning when
his dead body was found by his
wife some 250 yards from Grant's
house.
A correspondent of the News and
Courier says: "The Piedmont
Manufacturing Company have just
turned off two pieces of "Herring.

to build up quite an extensive trade

Dr. F. WV. P. Butler, son of Sena
tor Butler, met with an accident
Monday at Lancaster which will
likely terminate fatally. A horse
on which he was riding became
unmanageable,ran and fell, throwing
Dr. Butler headforemost to the
ground with such force as to
fracture his skull. There are no
hopes of his recovery.
