Boise shad be trancd like wines, to

Tel boise the story of General Wash

a gud effeck on them. Tha will go and
cut down all jure gud trceso and cum

try. But tha ort not to be trained lor
presidents. Too many arc truiucd up
for offises and when thoj gro up tharo is
a scuffle for thetn.
Boise think suintinics tha tire born
for Napoleons. I knu a boi to thiuk
that and he went and got a kanunn and
loded it to the mouth aud spoke of his
destiny and fired it. The kannon ex
ploded and so did the idear of that boi
being a Napoleon. That boi fulfilled
his destiny.
Boise trancd for liannibals, may take
thare grahmuthers for tho Alps and
break thare ucx. I've hcard*of it.
Boiso tiancd for CcBurs may try to
cross rewbicuns aud get drorrued. Its
okkurd.
Boise shud be trancd to be olive plants
round the table. But too many rouud a
tablo will klcan it. I've seen this.
I've kuoao a many a prumisiug boi
that never kep thare promises. I doaut
like a promising boy.
Boise will ask kwestions and its as
natral with them as noise. Won a boi
asks wi, such a thing is, if jou kuo, tell
him wi. Without knowing tho wi's tha
k iut be wise. If you doaut kno a thing

One man put his sun to bed wcu he

I kuu a man who had several boise.
Weu he intcuded to wip one for misde
meenor, he made the uthers pra for the
wicked boi. So tha cud tell wun another
before hand, i hen the guilty boi came
and prade. Aud ho repeted after his
f;rther thus : "Oh Lord ! "Oh Lonl"
"Forgive me for my disobedience in
knocking John to-day." "Forgive me,""
he said and so on, "but Lord you know
John knocked me first. This was like
the ease of Ilimmon in Scriptur.
The Spartans taught tharo boise to
steal, but ii a boi was csught, he caught
something iu Hellenic dialect. That's
the case with society in modern tines.

Exciting debate in Hie House
on the (Jovernor's MetuMige.
[CONTINUED TrtOM LAST WEEK.]
Mr. Whippet followed, and reviewed
pretty much the same ground in the an
nual and special message and tho acts
under which issues of bonds had been !
mudo, referring to tho redemption of the
bills receivable in particular, arid said,
:_ v_.._-- ,_A- j ....
lloustf to take action in the premises
against the Governor. Is there proba
ble cause? Didu't calumniate any per
son in defense of himself. If they were
participants, then apply the law. He
had never been a participant in any of
the frauds. The Governor's special mes
sage he hurled back as a whitewashing
report?as unfit for the unintelligent
Feejeo Islanders. If I urn the party, ts
charged in this report, written by the
immuculuto person so well known, let me
be held responsible with^the other pur
tics who must ha?>'.: been participants.
This message was tho usual dodge of the
crittiiual to shift ttu responsibility. The
gentleman from Ornngeburg had bceu
flattered. He was the Demosthenes of
South Carolina. Some tuen huvo writ
ten their names ss miscrcuuto so plain,
uo ucoessity to call names. [ "!?'.;? be-'
fore ilic bill passed creating tho office of
Financial Agent, Kiiuptou wus hero lob
bying with the bill in his pockut as
drawn up by his- friend Judge Porter.
Governor Scott approved tvho'
action of the I? in uncial Agent. Yet
utio of his I might say employees 011
thin floor has seen proper to-deny it all.
Referring to the inability to obtain re
ports from the Financial Agent, tho
Governor sent a message to this House
stutirtg he could not get required reports.
Ho didu't believe the Governor meant
what he said when ho wr;te his special
mcsssgo, or His Excellency Mr. Mackcy
wrote it for him : for after the openiug
"ontonco every statement was Unsup
ported. It is the statement of this well
known knight of the quill I bis man,
iwid a member of Congress from this
district, and paid counsel, h.\d been
brought on the floor of this House:
aye, moro than that, und it had boot!
said to put him where he would not
daro disclose. A member of Congress
of th<j 3d District was here lobbying for
tho Governor, and when his bill came
up tho other day, it went by default be
cause of his absence. Everything hub
been made to Eubscrve the interest of a
culprit who deserves impeachment, and
if he shall never be impeached by the
Legislature, he has beon impeached in
the minJs of the people, lie referred
to coming elections.
Mr. liyas interruping Mr. Whippor.
I hope that gentleman, with springs in
his chair, or his pants, I don't which,
will keep as cool as he can, for he haB
admitted that he Would go to his grave
un uuimpcuched traitor. I know the
secret springs Ihat iuduced parlies to
vote against impeachment.
Mr. Whipper, referring to the special
message, held it was false ground that
the law permitted the Governor to issue
bonds, after the lo in had been negotia
ted, aud in this connection said : Watch
the ingenuity of tho man who, perhaps,
Ins no equal in the State, with the scis
sors and quill. The Governor wouhl
stoop to anything, to Gud u friend, and
that man has since boon the constant
guest?and ghost of the Executive Man
sion. Ho (the Governor) had inquired,
was there somebody who could cover up
by ingenuity, these frauds ; and from
<_\<~ ?WrV, &>*m *rvmf> ir?W
they have crawled over this doer, with
more designs thau the viper's udder Tu
the gaze oi every man in the State is
exposed what they sought to cover up.
They aro brought to work upv.n the
credulity, and, I may s iy cupidity of
members of the Legislature, with all
these sobterluges, and wrapped in the
security ol tho money he robbed the
people of he lays bare in the issue of
bonds. The saying that the law d.d not
prohibit the isuiug of bo.ids alter tho
loan was effected, was the basest subter
fuge ever offered to a people. Tho law
affords no such subterfuge.
Mr. Whipper here read the acts, ami
then eudeavored to Show that the money
received from bonds had been misap
plied. Tho appropriations for 1SG^,
1809 and 1870 were ?3,013,820 91.
Mr. Byas. Show me where yon have
collected two und one-half millions from
taxes.
Mr. Whittotnnre. There has been
collected &3.07.>,000.
Mr. liyas. Then the report of the
Committee lied.
Mr. Whipper. I caro not what tho
report may say. Committees as well as
men have turned sumersaulti. 1 intend
to charge home to Governor Scott, the
guilt that rests upon him.
Mr. Byas rose to a question of privi
lege, to which Mr. Whipper replied in
substance, I am not here to defend that
....... . T nr.* h?" - 1 iVn .......
intttuo; ,but their report has brought
forth a vomit from' the Executive Mau
sion iu the shape ol a special message
that has caused a stench in the nostrils
of every honest man. May I tell the
guntleman (Mr. Byas,) I am charging
tho men who are paid for defending
Governor Scott.
Mr. Byas. Ho measures my corn by
his bushels. I deny, in tho face of
heaven, that I ever received1 one cent.
Il l have, may I never breath again.
Mr. Whipper. L in iy be measuring
my corn b) Iiis Bushels, [picking up the
glass which had set iu front of .Mr.
I liyas at the oouwm occhrcat, apparently
I containing soino kinds of spirits] but

Here the member yielded to Mr. Yu

carried by a1'vote of ayes 37, nays 31.

jury at once returned tho following ver
diet :
That James Fisk, .Jr., received his
injuries by a pistol shot at the hand of
Kdwurd S. Stokes, at the Grand Central
Hotel, January, 5, 1872.
A rumor circulated is supposed to
have led' 11: S. Stokes to tho act. It
was asserted that th? Oycr und Termin
er I it. i ud Jury had iound nn indictment
tiguinst Stokes tint' Josephine Mansfield
for u conspiruoy to obtain money. '1 he
hitter had that very day been beaten in
a suit against l?'isk for libel.
By a strange e?intstdeueo, it happened
that Stokes was interrogated at this very
trial, as tu win iher he had ever threat
ened i isk in any way. He seemed some
what embni'ru.ise ? by the question, but
finally said that he had never threaten
ed htm otherwise ihuu with legal pro
cocdings. During ail Hie time ' 1 was
in the Court.room 8iok\w was entirely
seit' pii.-.-e-sed, w ith this one exception,
and did no', in mi.V way betray the dead
ly purpose which he exeuted two hours
utter h aving the Court-room with .Urs.
Mansfield:
II may not be" out uf plaoo hbfld to
give tho origin of the difficulty which
has terminyted so seriously, between
Fisk aud Stokes.
Stokes was born in Philadelphia, in
1841, and removed to New York with
his family some years ago. lie married
a lady of good family some ten years'
ago, and has by her own child, a girl of
nine years of age. In J une of last year,
Mrs. Stokes, who was in bad health,
visited Europe to eeek some benefit
from the mineral springs of Central
Germany, and when last heard from, as
late as December 3, was in Paris. Near
ly a year and ? half ago Mr. Stokes be
came acquainted with Mr. Fisk, and
through the iutroductiod of the latter
he made the acquaintance of Helen
Joscphetlti Mansfield, tho ci-devant wife
of Frauk Lawlor, an actor. Au inti
macy sprung up betweon tho two which
has resulted iu the shooting. This fatal
intimacy was the cause of serious trou
ble between Edward Stokes and his
wife.
Every ono who reads the papers is,
familiar with the suits and counter suits
of the three principals?Fisk, Munsfield
aud Stokes?which have burdened the
Courts uud the newspaper columus for a
year past. Stokes has always asserted
that Fisk had robbed hi in of a fortune
of $200,000 accumulated iu the oil
tefincry business, which was the joint
property of Edward Stokes and his mo
ther. He was arrested by Fisk last
year aud locked up to answer a charge
which was made against him of fraud.
Stokes has since sued Fisk for false im
prisonment. The first Fisk-Stokes war
has coutiuued iu the Courts for nine
mouths. Stokes has expended iu law
yets* tecs during the lust twelve months
nearly thirty-eight thousand dollars, and
this contest has beggared him. The
qtriir'rel between the two men has boCu
very fflUtoh embittered by the woman
.Mansfield, whv> has served to fau the
embers of fhc fuel whenever it was
It out. It Culm in;, tod upon the
decision of the Court giver* above, iu
tho libel suit, and when it w.is stated
that the G rund Jury had found an in
dictment against Stokes for conspiracy.
MR. PI8K.'ti WILL.
During his iilncss Mr. Fisk mcde a

lows : I give, devise and bequeath all
my estate and property. real and person

such vast influence as is this in our day,
should be wielded by those who appreci
ate their momentous responsibility, and
employ it for the improvement and ele
vation ol their fellow men. The elo
quent discourse is reported phonographi
c.illy in the Methodist:
The newspaper is the great educator
of the nineteenth century. There is no
force compared with it. It is. book, pul
pit, platform, forum, all in'one. A*tid
there is not an interest?religious, lite
rary, commercial, scientific, agricultural
or mechanical, that is' not within- its
grasp. All our churches, and schools,
-nd colleges, and asylums, and art gallo
rica feel the quaking of Iho printing
press.
JtrouV pulpits we preach to a few hun
dreds or thousands of people ; the news
paper addresses an audience of twenty
thousand, fifty thousand, or two hundred
thousand-. VYo preach three or four
times h weoh : they every morning-ov

they are gloriously right, if they are
wrong, they aro awfully wrong.

Disastrous Fife in Abbevillo.
We learn from the Columbia Phcon'x
that a destructive fire occurred in the
town of Abbeville on Thursday night
the loth instant. The Marshall House,
a fine, large brick building, the Court
House and the entire Hock of buildings
between those two, on the left siuo of
the main square, were entirely consumed .
Towbridge & Co., whose store was in tho
Marshall House, it is said saved the
greater part of their stock, as did also
John Knoz, Traegar & Bequest, and
Kuphara & Sklarz, L. H. Russell, J.
Knox, Christian & Wilson and Lee RiuY
sell; but ("he buildings occupied by the
above named parties, together with all
the smaller buildings on the two blocks,
occupied by frecdmcn, were destroyed.
The books and records in the Court
House, Clerk's, Sheriff's, County Treasu
j rcr, Ac, are reported saved. The build

damages are estimated at i 75,000 ; in
surance from 810,000 to 812,000.)
Many valuable papers were lost by the
Couuty officers.

people ; it they want to bay your goods
let them hunt you dp.
Dou't advertise, for it gets your name
abroad, and yon are apt to be loaded
with circulars from business houses, end
to bo bored with drummers from fW
wholesale establishments, all of whioh
also results in soliciting your order for
new goods, and monoy to pay for them,
which is very anuoyiag to one of a dys
peptic tempetament.
Don't advertise, for it bring* people
in from the country (country folks, jou
know*, are ?f an-iuqairing tarn of mind,)
aud tbey will ask yen- tnatfy an astonish
ing questions about prices, try youf tem
per with showing them goods, and even
vex you with the request to tie them up;
which puts you to an additional trouble
of buying more'.
Don't advertise; it gives psoflo
a knowledge of yont town, and they
come aud settle in it; it will grow, ttti
other business will be induced to
in and thus iuerease yo?Y competition.
