TT Judge Mackey says that no liquor has been sold in Marlboro in thirty-five years, and that the Connty is a perfect Paradise. Prosperity prevails, and the criminal record is exceedingly small. At the Judge's last sitting in the General Sessions the calendar was cleared in. ten minutes, -while in an ad? joining County where liquor is sold the eriminal business occupied the Court fifteen days. Charleston News and Courier: The Rev. J. I. Bonner, D.I)., the editor of the Asso? ciate Reformed Presbyterian, and president of fchti Due West Female College, is at the Charleston. Hotel. He was married on Thursday morning last to Miss A. Lila Morse, of Lansingburgh, New York, for several years a teacher in the college of which he is the presiding officer, and is at? tended by his bride on his visit to the city. A dispatch from Hampton C. H. to the Atlanta Constitution, dated February 5, says: ?"Kev. Sam Jones arrived yesterday and preached last night to a large congregation at the M. E. church. People flocked in from the country to hear him?some com? ing a distance of six or seven miles. He will remain several days and seems hopeful of a 'season of refreshing.'" Dr. Jones is one of the ablest minister in the South, anu wherever he goes is much admired for his eloquence and power. There were a greet many people in town on Monday, and from 12 m, to 5 p. m. things were particularly lively. The day was most favorable to a free use of ardent spirits, and the amount of drunkenness was distressing to behold. Taking every? thing into consideration, however, the or? der of the day was very good, the only thing occurring to create any excitement of consequence being the effort of two young men to resist arrest Ly the police. Out of the two or three thousand people in town only seven or eight were calaboosed. A Mr. Kidd, of Oglethorpe county, Ga., ?old out his possessions in that county re? cently and moved to Texas, but he was so disappointed in the country that he at once came back to his old home in Georgia, where he expects to remain contentedly the remainder of his life. Those who are -thinking of emigrating from Anderson connty to Texas, or any other section of the Union, are admonished to profit by this man's experience by remaining where they are. There is no better section of country on the continent than Anderson 'county, when everything is taken into con? sideration. J We are indebted to the Hon. Walter M. Gibson, of Lahina, Sandwich Islands, for a number of copies of the Commercial Adver? tiser, the official organ of the Hawaiian government, published at Honolulu, from which wo learn that His Magesty King Kalakaua has departed his kingdom on a pleasure voyage around the world, leaving the reins of government during his absence in the hands of his sister, Her Royal High? ness the Princess Lihuokalania, heiress to the Crown. The United States is on the programme of King Kalaknua's voyage. The total amount of property returned for taxation in the town is $831,309, of which $414,725 is real and $416,584 personal. Two hundred and forty-eight persons have returned for street duty, against 249 for last year. The amount of taxes that will be raised this year on the levy of 1} mills will be between $l.?00 and $1,300, besides the street tax of about $500. The amount re? amed last year for taxation was $761,045, of which $357,580 was real and $103,465 personal, showing an increase in the value of real estate for the post year of $57,145 and in personal property of $13,119. One of our merchants the other evening detected a negro man with a piece of meat he had stolen from his store, and gave him his choice between going to jail aud taking a whipping. The thief preferred the whip? ping, and the merchant accordingly admin? istered it in the best manner he knew how, and to the'entire satisfaction of all con? cerned, the thief .not excepted. This is the third or fourth case of the kind that has occurred in ?this place within the past twelve months, from which it seems that the petty thieves themselves would be ac? commodated by the re-enactment of the old ante-bellum whipping post law. During the post week there has been an almost deadlock at Columbia in the ship? ment of freights to the up-country from Charleston, by the C. & G. R. R., and con? siderable complaint from merchants has been made in consequence. The block has been caused by the failure of the wood supply of the Greenville Road, extremely bad weather of the last two or three weeks and the delay in the receipt of a cargo of coal-j for use in the freight engines of the road, which have generaliy been converted Into coal burners. At one time there were seventy loaded cars at Columbia awaiting transportation, but a break has been made, and the authorities are sending forward the freight with all possible dispatch. I The stock law goes into effect in that por? tion of Ocouee county lying south of the Ayr Line Railroad on the 1st of March, and as might have been expected there is a good deal of dissatisfaction in that section in consequence, and some of the disgruntled citizens have employed counsel to resist its enforcement by legal process. The Wal i halla Courier of last week contains an ex j cellent article on the subject, directed main? ly to the opposition party, advising them to discontinue their opposition and to qui? etly submit to the change, as there is little hope of success for their efforls. The Cou? rier's advice is good, and in less than twelve months those who are making so much fuss about the change will be its strongest friends ?or'we will be surprised. Bushyhcad, Chief of the Cherokee In? dians in North Carolina, was in town last week soliciting, contributions to purchase clothes and food for his tribe. He repre? sents them as destitute of both. The tribe consists of about four hundred men and eleveu or twelve hundred squaws and chil? dren. They cultivate a little corn and wheat, but have never sufficiently caught the inspiration of civilization to be success? ful in agriculture. This tribe received a pension from the United States until the war, since which time they have been cut off from the pension rolls for going into the Confederate cause. It is a pitiful spite for a civilized government to punish half-civil? ized Indians for going with the people by I whom they were surrounded, especially when it is known that they would haye been exterminated had theygoue otherwise Mr. Bushyhcad received a number of dona? tions while here. An old well was discovered on tho vacant lot belonging to Mrs. Lucy Langston on Hampton street last week by the falling in of the top of the ground the size of the well's mouth. The lot has been in cultiva? tion two or three years, and the well re? peatedly ploughed and worked over, and what has supported the two or three foot of earth that has concealed it from view is a mystery. It is ten or fifteen feet from the bed of the old General's road, and is square and about 25 feet deep. Mr. J. F. Wilson, who has probably more knowledge of the immediate vicinity of Anderson prior to its settlement as a town than any other citizen in the county, says the only knowledge he has of the well was gained fifty or sixty years ago while 'possum hunting with a a party of young men, when one of them fell intoj it. Many years ago there were signs of a habitation in the neighborhood of the old well, and the probability is that it furnished walor for a family of people who lived before- the day of the oldest in? habitant. The Pickens Fence. The Board of County Commissioners of this County on last Tuesday approved the account of the Commissioners of Pickens County forbnilding the line fence between the two counties under the provisions of the fence- law for Pickens County at $1,462.80, to be paid out of the taxes to be levied next year. This postponement of payment is necessitated from the fact that instead of having a surplus there is now a small deficiency, and the tax levy for Coun? ty purposes' for the present year has been reduced to two and a half mills, which will not more than paythe current expenses of the County. We think the action of our Commissioners is just, and that it will be acceptable to all parties concerned. Immigrant Labor. There can be no question as to the wisdom of inducing white immigrants to this State from either the North or Europe. Those who have come from the North and settled permanently in our midst have always been valuable acquisitions to our population and , society, and it mattered not whether they came as day laborers or as men of means. The European immigrants have likewise proven their worth and efficiency, and are slowly but surely working their way into the good graces of our people, and will soon take that position in the South that their thrift and industry entitle them to. Icis true many of those who came into the State six or seven years ago, when the sub? ject of immigration was first agitated, were worthless from having remained in North? ern cities long enough to acquire bad habits, but with the exercise of proper care in se? lecting laborers good and reliable men can be obtained. In this County, and probably throughout the whole up-country, Senator Crayton has doubtless tested more thoroughly than any one else the efficiency of European labor for farming purposes, and has satisfactorily demonstrated the practicability of employ? ing it upon the farms of the South. He re? cently gave a reporter of the News and Courier the benefit of his experience with immigrants, which we reproduce on ac? count of the general information furnished on this important subject. He said: I tkink it was about five years ago that I got out the first immigrant to work on my forms in Anderson county. I first got one man and his wife from Castle Garden, and next season I brought out from Germany bis children and eight other immigrants. The following season I brought out fifteen or twenty families, who are now located on my place and the places of my neighbors in Anderson county. The cost of transportation from Germany to New York or Baltimore is about $30 per immigrant. From New York to Anderson, by way of Charleston, the fare is $15, and from Baltimore, by way of the Air Line Railroad, the cost is ?10.50. Arrangements have recently been made by Mr. Melchers, however, by which the cost from Charleston to Anderson has been fixed at $2.60. I pay them for their work on an average of $12 a month for males and $6 a month for females, and out of this they have to find them? selves. The wages are about the same as are paid for negro laborers, and the quality of the work is better. They are as fine ploughmen as I have ever seen. The women hoe cotton very well indeed. They work a little slowly but do the work well, and make expert cot? ton pickers. My experience with them is that they stand the climate perfectly well, remain remarkably healthy and keep their homes and themselves strikingly cleanly. They are. constant workers and expect but three holidays in the year?Christmas, New Year's Day and Good Friday. I have both Protestants and Catholics on my farms, the latter being of Polish descent. They have for the most port come from Posen, a pro? vince of Prussia. I have at present about twenty of these immigrants m my employ, and I suppose there ore as many more working on the farms of my neighbors. They have re? mained more contented and I have had less trouble with them than any class of laborers I have ever had to deal with. They all read and write German, and the younger ones acquire English with facility. I look upon these immigrants as the very class of people we want here in South Carolina to supple? ment our negro labor. I do not think they will supplant the negroes, but there is an actual scarcity of labor, and there is ample room for thousands of them. They are thrifty and economical, and have a tenden? cy to strike out for themselves as soon as they have accumulated a little property. In this way we secure the services ol first class laborers for several years who, by their own exertions, elevate themselves to good and prosperous citizens. Where persous propose to bring these immigrants from Germany they are required to give notice by the 24th of June of their intention to leave, otherwise their landlords can hold them. ? ? -i " BLACK-DRAUGHT" makes chills and fever impossible.
