Heavy Rains and Floods at the North. On Friday and Saturday a great part of the country extending from Colorado to the New England States, and as far South as North Carolina, was visited by great rains and more or less disastrous floods. Much prop erty was destroyed and a number of lives lost, all in addition to the great horror in the Coneraaugh Valley. A large part of the City of Wash ington, D. C., was under water, and one span of the long bridge across the Potomac was carried away, thus cut ting off" all railway communication with the South for several days. The stream was nearly twice its normal width, and w.as six feet deep along the streets facing the river front, sub merging wharves, small manufactu ring establishments, and lapping the second stories of mills, boat houses and fertilizing works in Georgetown. In the neighborhood of Elmira, N. Y., the damage will aproximate five millions. Twenty people lost their lives. Williamsport, Pa., was nearly ruin ed by high water, the flood reaching a depth of six feet throughout the city. Dozens of lives were lost, and the property damages will amount to millions. From all parts of Pennsylvania news has been received of terrible floods, dealing death and devastation. There has b«en mucn suffering caused by these floods, and we at the South have much to be thankful for in our section having escaped them; and. this fact should make us the more willing and prompt to aid the suf ferers. The Johnstown Horror. At the approaching terms of the criminal courts in several counties in this State, and also over in Georgia, there will be several respectable mur der trials of more than usual interest, which will doubtless attract wide spread attention. In the case of Dr. McDow, in Char leston, there have been some ugly re ports circulated in regard to the draw ing of the jury that will try him; and whether they are true or false, they are unfortunate and do not indi cate that confidence in the law that should exist in every law-abiding community. The people recollect well the assertions that were boldly made as to the fixing of the jury that acquitted Ferguson in Abbeville a few years ago; and they are not surprised that reports of a similar character should come irom Charleston now. Vigorous denials and explanations have been made; but these are always unfortunate things. It is all very well, on general prin ciples, to say that the case of an ac cused man should not bo prejudiced by newspapers, and that they should not make themselves tribunals to try them. But it is high time in this country that the newspapers uttered no uncertain sound on this subject. Human life is held too cheap, and the taking of it is not certainly punished as it should be. The “self-defense” and “insanity” pleas are too common and are allowed without sufficient justification. If a man commits some petty offense, par ticularly involving money, he is apt to go to the penitentiary promptly for a term of years; but if he only takes human life, and has money or influ ence, the chances of acquittal are in his favor. So long as this is the fact, respecta ble murders will disgrace this coun try. The only cure is for the people to rise to the acceptation of the une quivocal law, “Thou shall not kill.” The Bible attaches no qualification, and we should be very careful how we attach any. Idle Capiinl. The country has scarcely recovered from the shock of the great catastro phe at Samoa, when one that dwarfs this into insignificance falls upon us. No such disaster has ever before be fallen any section of this country as that which was visited upon the peo ple of* the Conemaugh Valley in Wes tern Pennsylvania on Friday last. Forty thousand people, living in a valley stretching eighteen miles away from an artificial lake, were exposed to the flood which the broken dam let loose, and thousands were caught by it before they could reach places of safety. The. lakeimmense body of \vkten»-' J n was thret^id a half miles npiand from one to one and a quarter mil.£s wide. In places it vas 100 feet deep. The darn itself wts 110 feet high and 90 feet broad at its base. How come it to give way? No one can answer that question. It is denied that it was weak, but had it been in spected recently? Several theories are advanced to account for its break ing. but none of them is wholly satis factory. The truth probably is that it had been neglected, and had become so defective that it was unable to bear the strains which the recent rains put upon it; and one of the most painful phases is that while the loss of prop erty could not have been prevented after the breaking of the reservoir dam, nearly all of the loss of life might have been if the people had only heeded the warnings. Warnings of impending danger were sent down the valley as early as 1 o’clock p. m., but they were sneered at and ignored; and at 4 o’clock the dam broke, and the fearful wall of water rolled dowui, carrying everything before it. Not less than 9,000 lives, and probably more, have been lost, and $40,000,000 of property destroyed. There are about 30,000 people houseless and without means to earn their living. These need help, and ueed it now. Considerable help was set t to South Carolina after our earthquake in 1886, —a trifling disaster compared to this— and we should promptly do all we Can to aid the sutterers by this recent disaster. South Carolina has always come forward promptly and nobly on occasions of this kind, and we are confident she will do so now. The Trial of l>r. Mellow. It is expected that Dr. J. R. McDow will be tried at the Court of Sessions in Charleston this montjL r _for the mur der of Capt. F. W. iJawsson in March last. He has bed'll confined in the Charleston jail since the commission of the crime, and no effort has been made to obtain Ids release on bail. He will be defended by Ex-Governir Magrath and Asher D. Cohen, of the Charleston Bar, on the plea of self- defence. The State will be r .‘presented by Solicitor Jervey, and possibly as sistant counsel. The has been considerable interest centered in consequence in the panel of jurymen drawn for this term, from which the jury to try McDow will be selected. This panel consists of 14 negroes and 22 white men, and one of the latter has been dead for several years. The unusual number of ne groes on the panel is the cause of much comment. It is stated that many of the leading New York journals intend sending down special correspondents to report the trial when it comes off’. The Court meets on the third Mondav iu June, Judge Kershaw presiding. Thou Shalt Not Kill. Thk commission of U. S. Revenue Collector Bradley expired on the 31st ultimo, and his successor will soon be appointed. We observe by the financial reports that money is cheap in New York, the great monetary centre of this country. There are many millions of dollars lying comparatively idle there, for which the owners would gladly accept four per cent, per an num, if the security were first-class. Investors are always on the lookout for good investments, but do not find them easily on satisfactory terms. All sorts of gilt-edged securities are away above par* If people get 4 or 5 per cent, for their money in safe in vestments they consider that they are fortunate. Money is readily loaned on first-class real estate at 4 percent. With money so plentiful at the North, it strikes us as strange that more of it does not flow to the South. A coonvdfcva’tAe amount hasr beerr brought here, but not^enough to lower the rates of interest to anything like a parity with those at the North. ^Farmers here have to pay anywhere frortt-^o 10 per cent, for money with which^Vmake their crops, and.not uufrequentiy they have to pay more than 10 per cent."'-It is seldom that they can get money for less than 8 per cent. And for first-class loans in the towns 8 per cent, is about the standard rate. Since there is so much money that must be seeking investment, it is strange that more Banks are not es tablished throughout the South. Within the past few years quite a number have been established, and in nearly every instance they have made good profits for their stockholders. The fact is that the people of the North are just now learning of the great advantages possessed by the South for investments of all kinds, and it is quite probable that as this information is more generally dissem inated, money will be sent down here for investment in much larger amounts. In the meantime the South ern people are working out their own prosperity with their own money, and will in time make their section the richest in the country. A Plea l«»r »he Birds. Some years ago, during the spring and summer Aiken was the resort of hundreds of mocking birds, which gave sweet melody day and night. On the advent of winter they disap peared in the swamps, to return to their old haunts with the first warm weather. But now the birds are few. They have been unable to withstand the constant warfare made on them by foolish men and mischievous boys. As usual the law against their de struction or capture is of no avail. It is a dead letter. A bird is seen on the strawberry bed, most probably after worms, and forthwith it is shot, to protect the berries, because it is sup posed to eat them, if it does eat a few, certainly any well intormed person should know that an insectivorous bird is man’s best friend; that the good it does in destroying worms and insects greatly overbalances any in jury done to crops. The killing of these birds under such a pretext is an outrage that should be prevented by enforcement of the law. The large number that are inexcusably shot for this cause yearly would surprise one who has not had his attention called to the matter. Another active cause of their de crease is the constant robbery of their nests by thoughtless boys. For no good purpose, or even protext for good, the nests are robbed wherever found—.not only of the young birds, which perhaps might be raised and sold, but of the eggs, of which no use whatever can be made. This - is very wrong, and it is really inexcusable in the parents that they allow their boys to commit such misehief. To say the least it is very cruel. It really seems strange that so few people appreciate not only the charms of nature, but even the practical use fulness of many things that God has given us.' He has given us few things more charming or useful than the mocking birds, and few that can con tribute moie to the attractions of Ai ken ; and yet some persons are waging ceaseless war against these charming songsters. They are being sacrificed to the love of the nickel on the part some, and to mischievous cruelty on the part of others. • The commission of U. S.

We are glad to learn that the State Democratic Executive Committee, at the meeting held iu Columbia on the 30th ultimo, unanimously elected Col. John C. Haskell a member of the National Democratic Committee to fill the vacancy in the representation therein from this State caused by the death of Captain F. W. Dawson. The selection is probably the best that could be made, and the following from the Newberry. Observer shows the esteem in which he is generally held : — “Colonel Haskell has been a mem ber of the House from Richland for several years, and if not the leader is certainly a leader in that body. He is not much of an orator; but he is clear-headed, well informed, and is a most persistent and determined fight er, never knowing when he is whipped —that is, if he ever is whipped. He is held in as high esteem in the House by those who oppose him as by those who agree with him on public ques tions, because he is a fair, biuve and high-minded gentleman, who never resorts to trickery to carry a point; and one always knows where to find him on all public questions.” It is authoritatively stated that Mrs. Maybrick, who is now in jail in Liverpool, England, awaiting srial on the charge of having poisoned her husband, is not a niece of Ex-Presi dent Davis, and is not connected with him iu any n ay. Those Northern newspapers that have been yearning for her life on account of her supposed connection with the representative of the Southern Cause, will now proba bly culm down, even if they do not actually express sy my at by with her because she is a woman. —/ dozen boys, rendered insane by excessive cigarette smoking, have been admitted to the Napa, Cal., hos pital for the insane within a short time. 1 J fCOHQUERQjfi A SPECIFIC FOR ■C* EPILEPSY, SPASMS, *** CONVULSIONS, FALLING SICKNESS, ST.
