The Qroenville Mews. k
Wc arc pleased to tiud the full telegraphic daily re- g
ports in the irrepressible and sprightly Greenville
News. It is tangible evidence that the enterprising
, jMHtple of Hint enterprising City appreciate the great
work that its aide and indefatigable Kditor, Mr. A. 11. "
Williams, is doing for them, lie lias well earned their I
confidence aud the success of his paper. No paper has a
douc more for the general good aud prosperity of the
towu and section in which it is located than the Green- ?
ville News, and, in our opinion, the time is not far off 1
w hen the Piedmont section will have, in the News, a
daily paper, equal in enterprise, equal in value and
equal in influence, to any daily in the State. h
We do not always coincide witli friend Williams, but V
according to hiui the same honesty of purpose that we a
claim for ourself, wc can afllml to ditl'cr with him, for il
we always respect his opinions. f
Pay Your Taxes.
The Legislature at its last session changed the law
rcgulaliug the collection of Tuxes so as to dispense with
the May collection and relieve the people of the oner- p
ous penalty of per cent, for default of payment of n
the first instalment. It was an excellent and j-<
eiuiuently just change for which wc had coutcudcd d
some years. U
The time for collecting the Taxes now is from the tl
l.'ith of October to tbo loth of December, the most con- w
venieut two months in the year for every person In d
this County to pay their taxes, as it is front the begin. &l
uiug to the end ol' the cotton picking aud marketing g{
season, when niouey is more plentiful than in any ai
other month* of il,t> v??.
The change was made not only to accommodate the In
people, tut the collection, put oQ' so late that it will be pj
impossible to grant an extension of time, and wo have ai
authority lor warning all tax payers against the danger J
of delaying payments until the last few days, as has b<
been the custom. Wo now give notice that the Treas- /,
urer's books will be closed on the 15th day of Decent- o'
her, sharp, and all taxes unpaid at the close of that day, a
will be subject to the penalty of 20 per cent-, irrespective h
of race, color, previous or present condition of finances . a
As the genial face of the Treasurer will be seen in
HI every township in the County, with his books, prepa?cd 8
to receive tlio.taxes, from the 1st to the 20th day of f,
. V Jiorcmber, it is hoped that all who possibly can, will r
/ avail themselves of the opportunity thus given to meet D
him at the various points sjiecified, prepared to pay, so w
as to prevent a rush at his office during the last days,?
causing many to he left out with the 20 per cent. ((
penalty added to their taxes. Take our word for it? w
the book's will be closed ou the loth December, as sure 0j
as that day arrives.

A Cotton Faotory at Laurens.
We find the following in the Laurens correspondent
of the Metes and Courier :
A publio meeting will be held in the Courthouse
next Monday nigbt for the purpose of ,l|j
gci.<iu? u|> - vuin-ti i?viuijr. it ib proposou
that tlie town issue $50,000 in bonds, that our 0,1
private citi/.ctis subscribe $50,000 or $100,000 a'
more and whatever balance may be needed will Wl
be subscribed by foreign capitalists. We are ',n
assured tbat we can get all the foroign capiial fri
we want, business men are alive to their own
interests, aud when they see a good thing ap- w<
prcciato it. They hare confidence in Laurens. ov
When the National Hank of (his place was ntl
started we wcro offered more foreign capital than
we could utilize without detriment to our own 'J1'
citizens.
th
A few years ago an effort was made in this ptt
town to build a Cotton Factory here, but it fell an
through becnute sufficient capital to insure for- P'1
ign aid was not subscribed. We hare beard ra|
nothing of it since. jjj
We hope Laurens will be more fortunate than ws
we were. A Cotton Factory, employing 160 to ',0'
200 opera!ires is no small itein in the business (|n|(
of a towu. A factory not far from hare is oar
'n8 higher prices for cotton than in any of the lor
markets in the upper part of the State, conse- 1
queutly it attracts farmers to it, and having a
store in connexion with the factory, it does
considerable trade from the cotton business. (|u
Of course, after the factory is suppliod with all det
the cotton it can work up, it wijl slop buying ?*
or drop down to legitimate market prices. In j.lj
tbs meantime it is drawing some cotton and rec
trade from here and Spartanburg. wh

?sistauco promptly. After getting a batteau
o the spot we found Gilmore's body about
5 feet below where he fell in. It was very

The Sabine Pass Disaster.
Bkalmont, Texas, October 15.?The first ream
of the great disaster at hubine 1'ass were
ot exaggerated, in fact, the death-roll uow
aches ninety. The relief parties that wont
owu near habino as possible on the habine and
usl Texas Kailroad are yet there, auccoring
te destitute and sick. The train could not gel
ithin twelve miles of the town, but over a
ozen tow boats have been sent there and are
L work saving life and property. There is coniderablc
back water yet at habine, hemmed in
ad held thereby the railroad embunkment.
The most intense excitement has prevailed
ere since the first news of the fearful calaatrohe.
The people have neither eaten nor slept,
ad crowds have surrounded the wharves and
epot waiting for the return of the train or a
oat from the devastated town. The steamer
amar left Orange on Wednesday night at 10
clock with a relief committee on board. At
lidnight last night'she arrived here. People
urried to hear the news and receive the sick
ad destitute.
The relict committee obourd the Lamar conistcd
of twenty citizens from lleaumont and
>rly from Orange. They traveled up tho
of llin vivar hof urnnn J !> \l
ight, which was no extraordinary trip, fraught
itli fearful daoger. Twenty-five of the comdttee
were left at Sabine 1'aai to mako ntsmpts
to recover some of the bodies, many of
liicli are reported to have been washed dozens
!? miles over into Louisiana
The exact extent of the storm-swept district is
iknown. From reports brought by the comitlee
it is oertaiu that the flooded district era-aces
an expanse of country many times larsr
than at first supposed. The Gulf seems to
avc moved over the laud for miles in one high
abroken wall of water. The committee report
)1 persons missing, IK) of whom are known to
ave been drowned.
Thirly-fivo of the victims were white and fifty
ve colored. Joseph Smith, a famous local
jaracter, known as'Aligator' Smith, was suposed
lo be lost, as the people on the relief
ain saw him driving before the gale on Lake
abine at the rate of twenty-five miles an hour,
real was the surprise therefore, when 'Aliga>r'
overhauled the steamer 011 its return,
ringing a ith him in his small boat two persons
liom he hud rescued in the swamp. Ninelyne
half clad, shivering, wretched victims of the
orm were brought up on the Lamar.
Dr. Calhoun, one of the relief committee, says
lere arc many persons in the vicinity of the
iss who are utterly destitute, being without
othiug to cover their nakedness. Dr. Calhoun
quests all correspondents to ask aid for the
istitutc. lie save that it makes no difference
hat is sent, food, clothing, medicine or money,
icy need them all. Dr. Calhoun is Mayor of
?aumout and he will distribute through comittecs
whatever is sent.
From all accounts nothing could exaggerate
c state of atfairs at Sabino Pass. Out ofLiore
an 160 houses in tho village less than sir rosin
standing, and they arc ruined. Wives
id children were swept away and drownod in
e presence of their husbands and fathers who
src powerless to savetli9m. Tha waves broke
;ainst the light house in solid walls fifty foot
gh, tearing out the windows at the very top.
>rpsas have been found at a distance of thirty
ilea from the scene of the disaster. Friends
id relatives of the drowned residents are comg
into Orange and lleauraont by every train.
8NAKK3 AMD WILD LEASTS.
Captain F. A. Hyatt and Wm. Gay report that
ey had a singular experience as members of
s relief committee on their way to the l'ass.
le train on which they were traveling stopped
i a dump five miles from town. Tito water
I around (his neck of land on which the track
is placed was fully eight feet deep. The
tnds of Messrs. Hyatt and Gay were blis'esed
iin fighting snakes which literally covered
e dump for a distance of five miles. There
ire thonsands of water moccasins from the
erflowcd district taking refuge on the narrow
retch of land and every step across bad to be
light through twisting serpents, many of
em the deadly stump-tailed moeeasins larger
an a man's arm. Wild cats also, frenzied at
e water s fury, rushed pell mell upon the
destrians while coons and every variety of
imals snapped at the passers by with hydrolobic
rage. Many times the pedestrians left
b dump and swam around angry reptiles
Lhcr than to try and pass them. Captain
rati alone killed over 160 suakes during his
ilk of five miles which consumed about ten
iii-s. Gay says no mouey can tempt him to
cc the trip over again. In stepping about in
i dark he was tripped up and thrown by a
ike two inches in diameter and fully five feet
SUiifalo,
October, 15.?The gale which visited
ffalo last uiglil did great damage. The wind
lehed the velocity of seventy miles. On the
;e front, in Iho vicinity of what is known as
i Sea Wall, forty small houses were totally
itroyed by wind and water and several peris
perished, among them a sailor named
arlen Mitchell and an old 'nan named John .
munds. The bodies of two children were
overed this morning and also two bodice
ich are unknown.

I This XtJUCKK Race.?We recently met with a
well-known colored porter of a l'ullman car,
who runs from Atlanta to New York. Ilia name
ia Augustus L. Grant, and he lives at No. 250
I lay no Street, Atlanta, Ga. lie said, "I would
like to publish for the benefit of consumptives
and for the comfort of their friends, how 1 have
been rescued from a consumptive's grave. 1
know that many people think the colored people
do not have consumption, but 1 know from
experience that it is a great mistake. Seven
years ago I became a subject of this jforlorn
disease, and was so pronounced by my physicians.
My lungs became badly affected, my
cough was awful, at times almost shaking me to
pieces. My general health broke down and so
declined that I became helpless and reduced in
flesh almost to a shadow. Terrible night sweats;
no appetite or digestion; moro and moro pain

cough became exceedingly exhaustive, discharging
great quantities of pus and consumptive
matter. 1 had in the mennwhilethc best treatment,
some of the best physicians prescribed for
me, and became interested in my case. But
after two or three years' troatment, finding
that I continued to grow worse, and they one
by one abandoned the case until they were all
agreed that it was only a question of time with
me, and llio time was thought to be very short.
, In this condition, with one foot as it were in
the grave, and making my preparations to go
through the dark waters of death, one of my
' physicians mentioned to me a remedy which
might be tried as a last resort. His reasoning
was that consumption being netliing more than
ulcers on the lungs, why is it that a remedy
which will cure an ulcer on the body will not
cure ulcers on the lungs? At his suggestion 1
procured a bottle of Swift's Specific and began
to lake it. 1 felt so much benefitted from the
i first bottle that I persevered in the use of it,
and my improvement was almost as rapid as it
was wonderful. My appetite came back to me,
my digestion was good, my Btrcngth was rapidi
ly regained, my lungs healed over nicely, my
, cough left me gradually, and I went to work
with a new lease on life. With the last four or
five months I havo not lost a day's wages nor
felt a symptom of the terrible disease ""that had
brought me so near the brink of the grave, ?dy
physician three months ago pronounced me
sound and well?not a trace of lung trouble.
He to-day, July 10th, made another examination,
and tells me that my lungs are sound as
anybody's. I feel perfectly well, and 1 know 1
am entirely cured, and that I owe my life to S.
S. S., which was prescribed by the physician.
My advice to every man, woman and child who
has weak lungs is to take S. S. S. lUeurcd me
sound and well after all the doctors aud all
other medicine had failed, and 1 want every
sufferer to know it."

has been sufferiug for many years with that
dreaded affliction known as female disease,
which has cost me many dollars, and notwithstanding
1 had the best medical attendance, did
not find retief. 1 have used many other kinds of
medioines without any effect. I had just about
given her up?was out of heart, but happened
in the store of W. W. Eckler several weeks
since, and he, knowing of my daughter's affliction,
persuaded me to buy a bottle of Itradfield's
Female Regulator. She began td'Tihprove at
once, and 1 was so delighted will# its - effects
that I bought several moro bottles. The price
seemed to be very high at first, but now 1 think
it the cheapest preparation on the globo ; und
knowing what 1 do about it, if to-day one of my
family was suffpring, 1 would h^ve it if it cost
$50 a bottle, for it has cured my daughter

Fbiohtful Ravages or Ciiolbiia.?Cholera
is still raging fiercely in Corea. No idea can
be formed of the extent of the Scourge. It
has more than depimated the capital, where out

About as many Coreans as there are people in
the State of California have been swept away
already, and it is hard to say where the plaguo
will stop. Corca is described as 'an appalling
pest spot.' Never was there a mote frightful
record of the ravages of disease on mankind.

A Maryland Town Destroyed.?Salisbury,

the property lost at this hour, but a rough
guess places the damage at over a million dollars.
Stores with their contents were licked up
by the flames, and the streets to-night are full
