John Morgan, the famous Confederate raider, called upon Governor Nash last week and later visited tho Ohio penitentiary, where, in 1863, he was confined as a prisoner of war. Dur ing his visit to the prison he set at rest reports that the party who es caped on the night of November 27, 1868, had bribed their way out. He' went to the oell blook and explained how the escape was made. Mr. Morgan changed oells with his brother and was not with the escap ing party. He, however, furnished them the information which enabled them to get over the walls to safety. To-day was his first visit to the prison since his release. A Theusand'Dollars' Worth ot Good. A. H.

South Carolina's Bloody Rcoord. Somo days ago in discussing the prevalenoe of homicides in South Carolina the Richmond News Leader estimated that in the last thirty-five years thirty-five hundred persons had been killed in this State. This statement was doubted by several newspapers, the opiuion be ing expressed that it was exagger* ated. Since then the News-Leader has quoted from tho report of the Attorney General, which shows there were 223 homicides in twelve months, an average of more than four a week. Judged by tho rocord, there were at least seven thousand deaths in the period mentioned instead of thirty five hundred. This is a terrible blot on tho State, yet tho record seems to be increasing and apparently the oourts are helpless in dealing with the murderers.-Greenville News.

After the stacks or shooks, have stood in tho Meld a sufficient length of time for the oom to thor oughly harden, the stalks are run through the shredder, which is pro pelled by an engine, the shuok is stripped from the ear, by tho ma ohine, and the ears are dropped out at the. side of tho machine and caught in a basket. The shucks, fodder and stalk are out up into fine pieces, whioh is called "stovor," arid makes an abundance of good feed for horses and oattle. Col. Bowen is successfully running ono of these machines, and besides doing his own work, he does, or has done, a good deal for his neighbors. Ho says he believes in ton years from this lime there will not be a bundle of fodder pulled, but all the coru will bo shredded. E. S. Griffin, a practical and progressive farmer, and probably others, has a shredder, and he is rauoh pleased with it. Tho methods of farming aro changing rapidly in this seotion, and all for tho better. L. O. Lathem, another good farmer, has bought a "crusher." This ma chine, besides shelling and chopping up the corn, crushes all tho cobs, which adds very much to the value of the food, and is quite a saving in expenses in the matter of food for horses and cattle. Ho is much pleased with it.-Easley Progress. i Cough CONSUMPTION The Winter Will he Cold. Thero is a good old-fashioned "sign" that the coming winter will be a severe one, twentieth century omen ioonoolasts to the contrary notwithstanding. Grandparents held firmly to the belief that where there was a superabundance of fruits and nuts Dame Nature's liberality was but the display of wisdom in provid ing her children substance for the severe winter that was coming. Another "sign" that has been no ticeable for the past week or ten days is the unusually blood red sun sets, and even long after Old Sol has pulled up his last tent flap and the day is done, the sky remains a glory of deep orirason, whioh gradually fades away before the silver rays of the silvery moon. Those signs were al! firmly believed in by our fore fathers. The wild fruits and nuts are said to exist in great quantities this year. Hence tho winter should be an unusually hard one. Farmers are getting to be so up-to date that they come to lose faith in the signs that have been believed in since the beginning of things. Belief in the efficienoy of the ground hog as the forecaster of the weather, in the time honored goose bone as an indi cation of cold or mild weather, or in the size of the nut crop as signs of the sort of weather-mild or frigid that is to distinguish the wintry sea son, had all been relegated tc the department of tradition in anoient history. Time was when tho dweller along the country side held himself to his oak'tree or his ohestnut grove or looked nt his walnut or hickory trees to got his tip on the weather proba bilities for tho winter. If the crop of acorns was large or the yield of nuts was great on the trees, the be liever of such signs would smile to himself-if he had his oak and light wood in and liked a cold winter and said : "M'm, we'll have a severe winter, plenty of frost." Nowadays all signs look alike to him. If the nut orops are abundant, he's well satisfied ; if they are soanty, he takes it philosophically ; but he no longer pins bis faith to such things. The seasous have changed, he says, and you can't bank on anything. A Timely Topic.

Zachary Taylor, when he was commander of the post here in 1847, will be sold for firewood by the Sisters of Mercy upon whose land the old house stands as solid of construction aa the day it was built out of hewn log? in June, 1841. It waa in this house that Jefferson Davis, the President of the Confederacy, then a young offioer in tho United States army, courted the daughter of Oen. Taylor, who looked upon Davis aa boueath bis daughter's notioe. Like her father, Miss Tay lor was possessed of much determi nation, and she eloped with the young officer and married him. Afterward, during one of the bat tles of the Mexican war, when Gen. Taylor was upon the point of being captured and killed, he waa rescued by Davis, and when the twain got to a plaoe of safety, Taylor grasped him" by the hand and exolaimed, "My daughter was a botter judge of the man than I was, and I apolo gize for any affront I may have put upon you." It was at the primitive landing at this point that Gen. Taylor, then dressed in ill-fitting oivilian olothes, WAS accosted by a couple of young officers bound to some point up the river, who after making a nu in bor of inquiries, all of which were courte ously answered, asked to be remem bered "to the old woman and the gal." Those same officers were sub sequently invited to a reoeption given to Gen. Taylor in the old log house, and much to their discomfit use, but to the infinite amusement of the General was introduced by him to Mrs. and Miss Taylor as "the old woman and the gal," to whom they had sent their compliments.
