KE0WEI3 COURIER. Ii. A. THOMPSON, D. A. SMITH, R. T. JAYNES, EDITORS AND PHOPKIKTOKS. THURSDAY, C JT. 10, 1889. Concealed Weapons. There is moro or less complaint throughout tho Stato"against tho law prohibiting tho carrying of deadly weapons concealed about tho person. Somo havo oven gono so far ns to urgo its repoal on tho ground that it is a dead lottor, and should thoreforo bo ex punged from tho statute law. Wo cannot conour in this viow. Wo be lievo it to bo a good law, and ono that demands a moro rigid enforce ment. Lot tho Courts impose tho heaviest punishment prescribed for tho offonce, md thon a conviction will exert a wholesomo influence against this alleged practico of cer tain olassos in overy community who aro hnbituallv violating1 tho law with impunity. Lot our Cirouit Judges impose a fine of somothing like $200 or imprisonment for twelve months, or both, according to tho persistent aggravation of the case, for every conviction, instead of tho usual no minM lino of $26 and costs, or alter nativo imprisonment for thirty days, ns now, and it will not be long until this pernicious habit is, in a large measure, broken up. No; let us not license this dangerous practice, which is so destructive of life and limb. Yiolonco and bloodshed are already too common in our midst. Put fiery whiskey and tho nimble pistol within thc reach of all, and human life will bo still loss secure. Wo have long thought that the pun ishment meted out by our Courts for the carrying of concealed weapons was too lenient, and wholly inade quate to suppress thc practice. It was for tho enactment of this law that thc late Capt. P. W. Dawson, editor-in-chief of the Charleston News and Courier, gave some of tho best work of bis life, both as a statesman and an editor. Let us revere his memory in the faithful execution of tho law, both in the let tor and the spirit, which had its birth in Ins wisdom and patriotism. lleavcrdnin Baptist Association. Tho annual session of the Boa verdam Baptist Association assem bled in the Walhalla Baptist Church last Thursday morning, 3d instant. There was a good attendance of dele gates and visitors. The opening ser mon was preached by Dr. T. M. Bailey, Secretary State Missionary Board, from Matthew v, (5 : "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your father which is in Hea ven." After interiniss! ni for dinner, the Association met again at 2 i?. M., and a permanent organization was effected by electmg Rev. J. R. Earle, Moderator, Rev. W. W. Leathers, Clerk, and J. W. Stribling, Esq., Treasurer. Committee o,n Finance was ap c pointed as follows : James Seaborn, de R. A. Mathewson and A. B. Sulli rev van. its Rev. J. R. Earle preached in the ur Walhalla Baptist Church at 8 I?, M., and Dr. T. AL Bailey preached at the West Union Baptist Church at the same hour. At the Friday morning session, tho Report on Colportage work was received and discussed. By resolu tion Dr. Balley was requested to Bpeak on tho report. Ho responded in a lengthy, interesting and power ful appeal for tho good to be accom plished by the thorough and sys tematic distribution of the Word of God. He showed bow thc Baptist denomination had distributed $1,500 worth of Bibles through the State during the past year, whUc thc other evangelical denominations were do ing comparatively nothing in a sys tematic manner. The Baptists have seventy-two agents in the colportage work in the Stale. Rev. C. Manly, 1). 1)., I'resident of Furman University, Greenville, and Rev. E. R. Carswell, of Geor gia, were introduced to the Associa tion and invited to scats in tho body. The Report on Education was read by thc Clerk, and discussed by Revs. J. R. Earle, J. T. Smith, E. R. Carswell and Dr. C. Manly. The report was then adopted and $400 were raised to endow Furman Uni versity. Dr. Manly explained that the Baptists throughout the State intend to raise and pay into the treasury of the University by De cember 1, 1890, the sum of $20,000, on which day the Baptist Educa tional Association of tho North pro poses to pay $7,500, with interest from the first day of last May, for tho purpose of endowing the Uni crsity. Tho canvass this summer has been highly satisfactory, and the $20,000 will certainly be raised in the timo specified. Thc Report on Stato Missions was next considered and discussed in a jnost interesting manner by W. J. M>?fc^?*^ Hill .I I ll I ?MWMWMWMMIIIMj'lll IIix,Esq., Revs. T. M. Bailey, C. Manly, B. M. Pack, W. fit. Kay, II. T. Smith and E. ll. Cnrswoll. . Hov- C.- Manly, I"). D,. preached in tho Walhalla Baptist Church at eight o'olook, Friday evening; mid Ivov. E. R. Cnrswoll, at tho sarao hour, preached in tho West Union Baptist Church. On Saturday morning tho Associ ation met and first proceeded to fix tho time and placo of next meeting. Aftor some discussion, Clevolond was named as tho place, ami tho timo fixed for Thursday before tho fust Sabbath in October, 1890, at 10 O'clock A. M. Reports on Foroign Missions, Temperance, Finance, tho Stato of Roligion, Homo Missions, Sunday Schools, Church Literature and Wo - man's Aid Sooicty in favor of Mis sions were read, discussed and adopt ed. These reports and their dis cussions were interesting and showed marked improvement along all these lines when compared with tho past. Tho Association, by resolution, re commended that tho first, second and third Sabbaths in October bo do voted to piny er and work ior For eign Missions. From tho rcportB it was learned that the number of churches in the Association ?B 31 ; number of or dained ministers, 15 ; received by oxperionco and baptism, 192} re ceived by letter, 135 ; received by restoration, 8 ; total received, 335.

A resolution was unanimously adopted by thc Association returning thanks to the people of Walhalla and vicinity for the kindness and hospitality with which the delegates and visitors were entertained. The /.asoeiation then adjourned to meet at Ben Cleveland, on Thursday be fore the first Sunday in October, 1890, having had one. of the most pleasant, interesting and profitable sessions ever held. Rev. R. G. Pearson, the revivalist, Im? sproad his tent at Rock Hill, and is preaching to 3,000 persons daily. So far 200 persons have made pro fession of religion. Thc New Orleans (lotion Kx vhumjc says that the amount of the present crop of cotton that bas corni! into sight is 835,122 bales, against 037,426 of the last crop at this time last year.

CARTRR ?fr CO, Our Itiohlaud Correspondence. HIGHLAND, S. C., Sopt. 80,1889. J > ic A a C "'OD IM nu : Mr. Stoddard, of Westminster, who took the contrnot for tho building of our now aoadomy, finally flickorcd out before ho did any work and tho trustees had to ro let tho work. Messrs. John Ballin ger and M. T. Hughs now have tho contract and coramonccd ti e work to-day. Wo will in a few aays seo tho building complote. Thoro is an occasional balo of cot ton on tho market hore, but the moat of our farmors prefer to get a bid herc and then laku lucir cotton io Senooa, where they generally get tho offer beaton ; but our buyer says ho has about decided to quit bidding on cotton hoadod for Seneca, unless tho farmors will agroo to pay him half they gain at Soneca by his bid. Last week wo saw a man who wont to Seneca with two bales of cotton after having u bid on them hero and re ceived lOj; cents i)cr pound for them,] while two other men took their cot ton to the same town without get ting a bid before leaving home, con i|uenUy ono of them received 10 cents per pound and the other 9? cents. Why is a halo of cotton not worth as much before it has been cut and priced by a buyer five miles away as it is afterward? Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Goodman were in town on Saturday last. We are always glad to seo them and wish they would come and settle in our town. Mr. Luke W. Verner has gone to Gainesville, Ga., to take charge of and train a number of line horses. Mr. Wm. G. Foster has returned home and will probably remain some time. Miss Virginia Mums, of Westmin ster, is visiting relatives in town. Messrs. L. 1). and John V. Strib ling are canvassing in connection with their other business for a num ber of good books. Mr. John Strip ling is also selling a ?intent roller at tachment for sewing machines, which, when applied to a machine, renders it very easy to move in any direc tion. ? ii. Our Seneca Correspondence. SUNKCA, S. G., October 8, 1889. DRAR CoURiBit: Frank Green, a ?oung white man working at Lum ina' gin, got his foot caught n a belt last Saturday and his \c?. was broken below the kneo befoi he could get released. Dr. Stribling set the broken limb and the patient was doing very weil when last heard from. Mr. T. E. Dickson has received his commission as postmaster hero and took charge Monday. Mr. Os car Harris is his assistant. Mrs. G. W. Gignilliat returned last Saturday evening from a visit! of several days to her sister near | Charlotte. Cotton continues to conic in pretty lively, notwithstanding the decline in price. Seneca still keeps a little ahead of Greenville and Anderson in the price she pays for thc staple. Wc had heavy frosts, both this morning and yesterday. Some par tics report icc both mornings. There is a difference of opinion as to the amount of damage done. Some claim that thc cotton is benefited, while others say that there will be considerable loss on the cotton crop. SIONKCA, S. C., October 9, 1889. Rev. W. IL King's residence caught lire this morning and burned down. Most of the furniture was saved. Mr. W. H. Cole's house caught from Mr. King's and was burned. Cole's shop was saved by hard work. If the shoji had caught Mr. E. P. Earle's house would have gone too. Everybody, black and white, worked heroically. I am informed that there was no insurance on cither house. King's loss is about % 1,000; ('ole's about $000. Rats and matches arc thought to have caused the lire. The Washington correspondent of tho Charleston News and Courier .says: The watch dogs of the Inde pendent Republican party in South Carolina, "Col" Russell and "Judge" Macuskcr, are still on guard in the departments, and they manage to gather up a few minor post-oflicos and "job-lot" appointments, which are apparently "too small pickings" for tho representatives of the regular organization. The "Judge" and the 'Colonel" can be found daily at the post-ofliee department seeking infor mation, and making requests con cerning the postal affairs in South Carolina. They are untiring work ers and there is an impression here that they receive something besides "glory" in payment for their labor. . A terrible hurricane visited the Island .if Sardinia on Sunday last. One hundred persons were buried in tho debris of buildings, shattered by the storm, and thirty persons wer(! killed. At tho same time, the pro vince of Cagliari, in Italy, was rav aged by a terrific storm, in which 710 houses were destroyed. Sixteen per sons were killed and hundreds were injured. .- -.*..? Thomas Cheshire was on trial in court at Oyster Ray on Friday for alleged improprieties with Minnie Gitto. She wo." on the witness stand giving her evidence when she sud denly became ?ll and was removed to the judge's room, where she gave birth to a child. The defendant was held. Tho Farmora? Now Move. ATLANTA, October 1.-Tho ses sion of the National Cotton Commit tee of thu Farmer?' Alliance last night was moro important than tho published proceedings indioated. They ngre?d to recommond through thc usual channels that tho various sub-Alliances begin an immediate agitation toward having speoial ses sions of tho Legislatures of the dif ferent States called to pass laws to suspend the colleotion of debts for six months? so that farmers moy not bo forced to Bell their cotton until they can bring Liverpool to torms. Tho argument used is that Liver pool it using all its influence against tho farmers, and to dofeat them in their war against the bugging trust. One of tho strongest weapons in the hands of tho Liverpool pcoplo is tho colleotion laws of tho various States. If these could bo suspended tho fermera could hold their cotton and break up the commercial rings and thus compel Liverpool to accept cot ton bugging and to raise tho price of cotton. The Georgia Legislature is stiii in session and will likely be the first called upon to take steps in de fence of the farmers as against their enemies. J. J. Royle, a Catholic Priest at Haleigh, N. C., who has boen on trial for criminal assault on a young girl of his congregation, was on Satur day convicted and sentenced to be hanged November 29th. Ilisdefenso was the consent of his victim. Tho orimo was committed in his room over the church, the girl having been enticed there hy a message regard ing fresh linen, for thc altar, which she had in charge. CHAKI.KSTON, October 7.-It is learned to-day that the vestry of St. Murry's Catholic Church have dis charged Deacon J no. W. Kannapaux and elected a successor in his place, The cause which lcd to this is that Kannapaux had made himself con spicuous in upholding Dr. Mellow, the slayer of the late Captain F. XV. Dawson, who was for many years a member of St. Mary's Church. Kan napaux is an especial admirer of McDow and thc congregation of St. Mary's having heard of his actions, demanded his discharge. Kannapaux is tho Sccratary of the La Fayette Artillery, tho only organization in Charleston which has not expelled or compelled McDow to resign. McDow is still surgeon of that high toned organization. All the honor ary members ot the company have resigned. ^ .yj -4 . ft- - - FLOCK, FLOU IN-If you want good Flour from $2..Yt and upwards, call on T. N. Carter ?fe (y v.
