BILL ARI3' .A_rp Has a ^Pleasant 1 ?ai'o Atlanta O Hard, hard indeed, ia'the contest for freedom and the struggle for liber ty. Here I atc at Clinton barricaded, ambus ceded, cnliladed and any other distrossiugi thing, for there is -a wreck re ven milos away and they say it.will take all day to remove it. And so L can't get ? home lonight. - Oh, tho pity of ic, [for I am tired and home sick. I am not calm aud serene. I was at Laurens last night and found good friends, who made thc lingering hours pleasant, but all, the time L was comforted with the thought that it was my last day away from my numer ous wife and children und grand-chil dren. I left thc hotel at 5 o'clock this morning and walked at a lively gait down to the depot to take the early train for Clinton, where I was to intercept the Seaboard foi Atlanta and then for home. Hut the train for Clinton did? not come and nobody knew when it would come. I waited until half-past. 7 o'clock-and time was fleeting; went back up town, hired ;? uvery stable man to drive me over lo Clinton by 9:30 o'clock to catch the Seaboard. Thc road was awful, but the norse was a good on ? and I knew he could make the tpu miles in two hours and I felt happy . on the way. We did make it nod as 1 stepped on the platform lfelt ; ? -*<td that 1 had ?jot waited on that belated train. But, oh, what a fall was there, my country men, when the agent told me the Sea board was in a wreck and. could not get here until late iu tho day and per haps later. Well, here I nm-no gardeu to dig in ; no children to frolic with aud nothiug to do but ruminate. Yes, ruminate upon the trials and crosses and disappointments of this sublunary world and I find myself humming that plaintive.old song, "Pity thc Sorrows of a Poor Old Man." But this prc- I face is the shadow-ibo dark side of ! the picture, and now I will brighten up and look at the other side and feel ashamed of myself, for after all my disappointment is only for? a day and it is uot as bad as? war nor sickness nor death in the family. And, be sides, I am at Clinton, thc loveliest village of the plain. Yes,. Clinton, where I have a host of kind friends who are glad to see me and wouldent be sorry that I am belated here if I was ndt sorry for myself. I was here two days ago and Lad a real ovation, a- largo audience and a^love feast after the lecture. . In this little town of 2,500 people I had 400 out to hear and to greet me and many of them were from the country and some carno several miles, for the night was love ly and the fall moon smiled Upon everybody and everything. The wo men turned out in force, for they do love to see and hear, a man who has been subdued by matrimony and does not claim to bo one of the lords of creation-a mau who helps'.his wife tpl nurse the'cbildrcn aud plant the flow ers; a man who, away in thc dead of night, will let his wife 'rest and sleep while he walks the room in his night gown with a teething child in his arms and sings his little sonp ? until his eyelidsjdroap and his legs get weary and hts thoughts say you are a little darling and I wouldent take a million dollars for you-but I wouldent give a nickel for another. A fond father has nono to sell, but doesent want to buy, but a true mother gives glad welcome to all who come and is even happy in the prospect. ? While'in Clinton I was thc guest of Mr. Bailey, the banker and mill man, a modeKgentleman of the jpld school whose maxims are truth and honesty, whose sons ' and daughters are ' liko olive plants around his table and, have never given him a moment's 'grief or anxiety. And now that thoy aro ali grown up and established in their own business,*ho has adopted several hun dred factory children and. is delighted e^ery day? to visit them in the? cotton mill and placo his baud kindly and gently upon their heads ns he passes them at tho spindle or the loom ile has built for theni a church and em ployed a preacher and established a '.Sunday''Behool audit hae awakened in hts bosdin a new lovo for his fellow creatures and he ti: growing young again. This cotton mill runs 1G,000 spindtes and 450 looms and has pros pered ever since ?897, when it w?s completed The stoce. is ai a p.emiuiu of 30 per cent. ?uu Us surplus earn ings are all invested in enlarging lia capacity and inqreasing its products. Now think of it. _ Herc is a mill that manufactures only a fine grade of cloth and consequently onlycbn8umesK about 3,000 bales of cotton. He has'now on hand enough cotton to run until next December and it was al} bought for 7 cents per pound: Hov has orders' ahead nt fixed prices for all the goods honan make this year. His goods aro already sold at 51 cents a yard and it takes 4? yards to weigh a pound. Now counting for a los? in weight of 10 por cont, ho h getting, 25 cents, a S LETTER. Pime at Cliiitoii., South. lina. onstituthii. pound for tho cotton that cost him 7 cout?. Labor aud machinery does thc work und tho cost ol' that depends : upon tho man aud tho management. Tho m ill owners can grind that labor down to u starvation price if they choose to, but, Mr. Hailey assures tue that i: is possible and practicable to pay these operative* good living prices iind pr?vido good, comfortable cottages und. u gurdon and fuel and all tho ne cessaries and many of thc comforts of life and leave a good profit fof thc stockholders. Now why -can't every town in Georgia do likewise.? Tho traveler is hardly ever out? of sight of a smokestack over diere iu Carolina. I am just from the good old town of Laurens, only ten miles away, and they have a mill there with ."JO.OOO spindles and SOO looms, When every county spins and weaves all thc cot ton it glows then the South will truly bc independent. Iiut the most beautiful feature pf Clinton i's tho orphanage-the Thorn well orphanage-that in iwonty-live years has developed from a plain building with rooms for twenty or phans iutt? a lovely village of rock built, solid, handsome houses two stories high and in tho best architec tural design and-where 200 of thejor phariS'reside. No one-would ever sus pect that this village was an orphan age that was built on faith and chari ty .'and for all these years has been maintained in the Fame wa3T. I visi ted and inspected every tenement and was delighted. I tell you that these orphans are not orphans very long af ter they get here. They are put to worlc'aud to school and soon learn to do their shore in maintaining the in stitution. They are put to printing, carpentering, shoe-making, painting, engineering, farming,'dairying, dress making, cooking and everything else that holps to run a household and everything is methodized aud goes on like clock work. A happier, brighter looking flock qi children I never saw. They dress ncutly aud keep clean and their rooms and beds ure models of cleanliness. The advanced boys and girls have to greduate in the seminary and then some of them find a place in thc college that is near by. Most of the boys find good places in the shops and manufacturing establishments and printing offices all over the country. Many of the girls become teachers and dressmakers and they never leave the orphanage until a good plaoeis offered them. Neither boys nor girls] aro even bound to anybody. They have an independent manhood aud woman hood acquired before they leave the j orphanage and they uever dishonor or disgrace it. There aro children here from every Southern State and a few from the North and there is one little i waif from Cuba. He is about ten ? years old.and is as happy now as he was poor and miserable in Cuba. His father and mother uctuallyj[i3tarved tp death there during the long trouble aud this boy was found iu a ditch sit ting by the corpse of his dead sister. A Clinton soldier brought him here and begged a plaoe for him. I forgot to mention that the advanced scholars did all tlicjjw?od work in thc several homes and it s beautifully done stairs, mantels, doors, windows, bed steads, hatracks and wainscoating is all their work andris in up-to-date style. Their printing goes ail over the country and the girls soil first class butter1 in the market. The or phanage runs a farm ?and has-'a herd of Jersey cattlo aud not only supplies their own meat and vegetables, but al waysihai some to sell. There aro not less than*225 mouths to feed, and they arc well fed, and they show it in face and form and movement. Iscnt this wonderful,5 and it is all done by a faith i?and trust equal to Muller's. Theyjtell me here that Dr. Jacobs is in partnership with tho Lord and that Mr. Ba?ley'is the Lord's .financial agent. Certain is it that i these two work heartily together, and ! more so since Mr. Bailey's son married ! Dr. Jacob's daughter. [ Well, Georgia has thirty-seven or I ph an s here and cares for them and I was proud to know that Carterville nr?t only inain tai ned an asylum, but had a little share in tho mite cottage that was built hy the offerings of the children. There seems to be no limit to the expansion nf. fj*js grcsi **crk. Tho money comes in just as fastas tut? number of orphans incroaso and no fast jr. "I am tho God of the fatherleus" is visible and palpable in everything about tbiB wonderful in stitution. I couldfwrite a book about it; but time and space and place for bid, for I am at last*on tho train and bound for home. lb saddens me to know that an engineer and fireman were killed OD the engine that wrecked the train a,few miles from Clinton. On this little tour into South Caro lina I have visited good old Abbeville and new Greenwood and, was made much of at both places. My stayat Abbe ville was must delightful, for was the guest of Mr. aud Mrs. Spec whore I found five little children wi behaved well and had bright, cle: faces and sat on my kucc and rode < my foot and one wanted to know wi pulled all my hair out and I told h I that Mrs. Arp did it. At Greenwood I stopped at tho fii new Oregon Hotel, which is the be 1 have ever found, and a Gcorgii keeps it.

In coutrastii the rigors of tho present press censo ship in the Transvaal with the la methods pursued during the rebellion tho sOnator said: "One day before Vicksburg the cu respondent of a copperhead pap< went to General Rawlins for news. "Thc general pondered a monier and too': me to one side. '? *Tak*? Gr .< youug man," he sait 'up to ti.p ?d' those trenches withi a stono'i lit ron of the enemy.

Both of us were mounted I poiuted out a crest overlooking th enemy and told him he could get good view fruin that point. .''Ain't you coming with mc?' h asked. " 'Nc,' I replied, j'l know all I wan to know.' "Sobe started aiouc. As soon a the top of his hat and thc tips of hi mule's ears showed above thc crest there came a volley of musketry tel yards wide, that cut the air like a bij knife blade.

'Eh?' gasped thc correspondent wiping his f iee and looking at hi: hands to see whether or uot they wert bloody. 'What I wanted to know' Oh! yes, of course. The enemy art over that rid go all right.' "When we returned to headquarters General Rawlins saw us and hailed me. I went inside his tent. " 'I thought I told you to lose thal copperhead reporter somewhere,' he said testily. " 'I did the best I could, sir,' 1 an swered. 'He came back; but I have the honor to report the mule a total loss' "-Philadelphia Post.

W. 0. T. ??. DEPARTMENT, i _. Co ii (Inc tod by tho ladies of tho W. C. 1 T. U. of Anderson, S. C. The ?rink thie*tlon. ?Editor* intelligencer : Having no ticed in a receut issue of your excel lent paper a request to hear from tho women ou the "Drink Question," I gladly respoud. I would willingly lay down my lifo to save thc fair youths of our land. Although we often think our Coys arc safe, "that the twig ia bent." yet. then, there ari? almost resistless temp tations confronting them, misfortunes j befalling them, leading them on and ' on until they themselves feel tli.it they 1 cannot ref uso the cup. I ;t:i; so glad to hear from ono eiti* ( zen on this question, and we, thu WO> me ti, hopo to hear from others until there is a chango for the better. Why canuot wc, as will as other Counties, do away with the deadly sturt' entirely ? Wu once had prohi bition. and L am sure wc then did not see near so much drunkenness passing our doors as now. But wc bave erred through strong drink ; are "swallowe d up in wine," and have "stumbled in I judgment." 1 never have heard the j quotation '.Who with a little canuot bu co?tent, Endures an overlaying punishment,'' applied lo drink, but we have seen it verified. Let thc good men of our County wake up, and we, tho women, will come to/ their assistance with unceasing prayers. If nothing more, we'll train up our little boys to know tho evil in thc dregs of tho cup ; and let them at least rejoice in reflecting on their youth, "that sons may bc as plants grown up in their youth, that our daughters may be as corner-stones, polished after tho similitude of a palace." Many a time has inj heart leaped with joy at hearing my six-year-old little boy repeat this,piece of poetry, which ho says as a speech : "A KIU-S ol' cider, sweet, you ?av ! >?i>* any, sir, for me ; For eider is but oilier, air, Wbato'er it* tasto may lie. I will not drink it, sweet or sou-, For if I should begiu I might uot know just whore to stop Where sweet goes out and sour gets in.. "fis but the applo's juice, you say, Aud God made them to uso. So did He make corn, wheat aud rye, Whose virtues mau abuse ; And when they drink, and swear and fight, Muet God, then, bear the blame Because the deadly stu il' was made From his great gifts of graiu ? He giveth much iuto our hands, But always for our good ; He never meant that we should use Strong drink instead of food. I'll drink no cider, beor nor rum, But this I'll do ioBtead Rat my share of the apples, sir, And t?ke my grain ia bread. Let us try, whether our efforts prove successful or not, to-trample thc evil nuder foot. God will bless us in tho attempt. The son should look to his father as the guide - pf ^his youth. Thou the sweetness of our homes will spread. Terror, poverty and shame will vanish and peace, like thc rainbow, will rest upon the earth, its arch will extend to heaven. Then, and not, until then, will our churches have the proper number of pillars and corner-stones. "A stone that is fit for the wall is never left in tho way." The drunk ard should not say "I can't," no more than the little' school-boy, but say "I shall," remembering that '.Beloved self must be denied, Pasr-ion and envy, lust and pride." It is often said, "trouble makes some men yield to this weakness." They are only adding to their burden by drinking. "There's many a sorrow Would vani?b to-morrow Wore we but willingio furnish the wings; But eudly intruding, And quietly ? rooding. It hatches out all sorts of horrible thing?." My dear sisters, let us make our homes attractive ; bo hopeful, cheer ful, loving and kind ourselves, not giving away to worry and fretfulness, llemcmber that "God is marking eac:i sorrowing day.
