The daily phoenix. (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, June 05, 1870, Image 2
COLUMBIA, 8. C.
Sunday Morning, Jone ?.JL870.
A Noble Programm?.
It has occurred, doubtless, to many of
our readers, tbat it is impossible to con?
ceive of a nobler, a higher and a parer
suggestion than that' oontaiued ia the
following langnngo from the New Testa?
ment:
"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things
are true, whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever
things are lovely, whatsoever things are
of good report; if thoro he aDy virtue,
and if there be any praise, think on these
things."
On this morning, turning aside from
the secular considerations of the day
and the hour, it may be well for us to
suggest that this principle of action may
well be carried out in all the departments
of human effort. The TKUE, the BEAUTI?
FUL, the GOOD-these are the elementa
commended to us in the inspired exhor?
tation. And it is in the pursuit and
practice of these things that wo secure
that happiness which men oft-times seek
in other channels. Ia business, ia pri?
vate life, in politics, at home and abroad,
in youth, in manhood, in old agc, well
may we think on such things as aro tr ur,
honest, pure, lovely, and of good report.
FENIANS IN LONDON.-The English
capital is suffering a little onoe more
from terrorism of Fenians. It is feared
that there are large deposits of arms at
Birmingham, Sheffield and Manchester,
and that the Fenians are anticipating
some sort of outbreak. Tho London
Fenians have almost entirely coased their
public meetings, and are reticent and
apparently tranquil. Yet it is well known
to the police that great numbers of the
London Irish have armed themselves re?
cently, their favorite weapon being the
revolver, and that Fenians from Ireland
are hanging about all the arms manufac?
turing establishments in tho Lancashire
district. While all must sympathize with
the wrongs of Ireland, it is evident that
the kind of vengeance boro contemplated
caa do no good. The severest and most
dignified resentment Irishman can dis
display against England is that repudia?
tion of her government in Ireland which
is shown by their emigration to America,
where, in all the years past, they have
found liberty and grand opportunities,
and where their presence is more than
ever necessary to help to presorvo liberty.
BE WISE AND STAX* AT HOME.-Many
of those who have migrated Westward,
under the glowing description of the
"chances" oat there, and the interested
advice of those who have lands to sell
and "paper oities" to fill up with in?
habitants, are meeting with disappoint?
ments. At Humboldt, Kansas, recently,
thore were nearly a thousand omigranl
wagons, filled with distressed women and
ohildren, whoso husbands and father;
had been induced to abandon their
homes on no moro substantial ground.'
than statements of interested parties,
and the delusive hope that they could
better their condition, without knowing
how it was to be done. In Kansas Citj
the wages of labor are lower than at th<
East, and employment is n boon. S(
says the New ?ork Times.
A horrible story of brigandage renelle:
us from Chili. Lagoberon, a notorious
bandit captaiu, was so closely pursued
by a body of South American troops re
cently, that he was compelled to deser
his band of brother cut-throats, who hue
been the terror of the whole country
round, and take refuge in a cavern Bitu
ated near the summit of ono of the loft}
mountains of the Sierra Profunda. It
this cavern he had conoealed a femah
captive, whose husband he had robbet
and slain. The soldiers made severa
ineffectual attempts to reaoh the abodi
of the culprit. Lngoboron, a man o
gigantic stature and herculean strength
succeeded in beating them off by rolling
heavy rocks down upou them wheneve
they approached. The officer in com
mund of the troops resolved at first ti
starve the bandit out, but ufter two days
blockade, grew weary of so tedious ai
oxpedient, improvised an escalade of th
ahieftain's stronghold, and succeeded ii
capturing him. To their horror, npoi
entering tho cavern, they found tho poo
woman in a dying condition, Lagoberot
having cut off ouo of tho breasts of hi
unfortuuate captivo and eaten it. Th?
inhuman butcher was convoyed to Talca
whore ho was promptly tried nud cou
dem.md to die by the garrote. He wn
speedily conducted to tho scaffold, nm
while tho executioner was engaged in ad
justing his toilette de mort, the convie
drew a whistle, which ho had concealei
in his pocket, and blew it sharply
whereupon, about sixty of his followers
who had introduoed themselves nmong.s
the crowd surrounding tho scaffold
rushed upou the gendarmes and mnssn
cred them ero they could offer any resisl
ance. They then freed thoir chief, an
garroted his would-be-exocutioner, aftc
which they escaped almost unscathed, t
tho mountain!), facilitating their fligl
by seizing the horses of tho murdore
gendarmes. They nlso curried off seven
women from the throng gathered to wi
ness tho execution.
Tho female brokers, Woodhull, Chilli
Sc Co., have fizzled out.
It was a very happy thought in some
one at the Elgin Watch Fa cs to ry to name
their ladies* watch tho "Lady Elgin."
We venture to say that (ho man who Bug
Srested the name is ono who would be a
avorite with the ladies. In other words,
a man ot sense, of taste, nnd a gentle?
man. For what lady would not prefer
to oarry an exquisite time-keeper Hko the
"Lady Elgin, and with that name, to
one with a trade mark of "Samuel Ap?
pleby & Co.," or something similar? We
like the name "Lady Elgin," and, un?
derstanding that the watch itself ia the
handsomest, strongest and cheapest la?
dies' watch yet ruado in this country, we
predict for tho Elgin Company au im?
mense demand for thom.
DESTKDOTION OP ILLICIT STILLS-CAI?
TUIIK or TUE BLUE HIDOE GIANT, &C.
Tho revenue officers iu Virginia are yet
busily engaged in limiting up and cap?
turing violators of the law. Despatches
received at tho Revenue Bureau an?
nounce that in tho Third District, Depu?
ty Collector Wiggin and Assistant As?
sessor Duncan Thompson havo succeeded
in capturing tho notorious Blue Ridge
illicit still:), destroying them and captur?
ing the stock. &c. They also took pri?
soner Samuel Morrison, the Bluo Ridge
giant, said to be eight feet and large in
proportion. He was the proprietor of
one of the stills. This capture was made
in a gorge in the mountain near Flint
Hill, Rappabannock County.
A Havaua correspondent writes that
the rainy season has set in in Cuba, and
that yellow fever bas broken out nt
Nuevitas and Puerto Principe, greatly
to . the consternation of the Spaniards.
He also reports Cuban successes in seve?
ral small engagements. The rebels are
still presenting themselves in large num?
bera to the authorities, and imploring
for pardon. Tbe Voz dc Cuba "positive?
ly knowa" that President C?spedes ia
trying to escape to the United States, bnt
is prevented by bis partisans.
A NEW AND VALUABLE INVENTION.
The newspapers of the South-west bring
us glowing accounts of the performauces
of a new cotton gin which has just been
tested in St. Louis. By it, tbe labor of
picking the cotton from the bolls is said
to be eutirely dispensed with; audit is
now only necessary to pluck "bolls, cot
tou and all," from the stalk. It is esti?
mated that one hnud can pick 1,000
pounds in tbe new way quicker thau a
person could pick 150 pounds after tho
old style.
On Saturday night, about 9 o'clock, a
mau named Heury Gengnngle, twenty
eight years of ugo, residing with bis
father, at tho corner of Chester anti
Hampstead streets, Baltimore, was found
drowned in a tub of water in tbe yard
attached to the house. Dr. Spicer, city
corouer, held an inquest, aud tbe jury
rendered a verdict that tbo deoeased
came to bis death by being accidentally
drowned in a tub of water, while laboring
under a tomporary aberration of miud.
A POLITICAL FULCRUM.-Tbe Boston
Post declares that "with New York for a
fulorum, the National Democratic party
will be able to overturn the mountain of
corruption which now oppresses tho
land, restore the Government to honest
bands, relieve the people from burdens
imposed by an usurping and tyrannical
parly, and once more give all the States
what the Constitution promises-a re?
publican form of government."
As au evidence that women are gradu?
ally getting their rights, and creeping
slowly, but surely, into a custom of
which men have always retained a mono?
poly, it is stated that there is a family of
high social position in New York, iu
which ono daughter has died of delirium
tremens, and another bas had the jim
jams, but got out of them alive. Woman
ia coming, as sure as you live.
ARCTIC EXPLOKATIONS.-Senator Salis?
bury made, tho other day, n very happy
suggestion, in saying that the only Arctic
expedition worthy of Government sub?
sidy would bo one which should under?
take filially to remove the North Pole,
that ignis faluus of geographers, and so
put an end to the waste of life and trea?
sure that bas resulted from vain attempts
to get near it.
The outrageous conduct relative to tho
graves of Confederate dead at Arlington
was repeated on last decoration day.
Even a widow, who attempted to place a
bunch of flowers on tbe grave of her dead
son, was brutally ordered to remove it.
"Confederate Graves," in large letters,
marked tho resting-place of tbe eighteen
soldiers remaining in tbe Federal ceme?
tery.
A band of Sioux, in the recent Indian
cainpaign, were pursued by a body of
cavalry. The Indians, seeing that escape
was hopeless, sat quietly on their horses
till the troopers rode up, and then, by a
sudden display of their blankets, so ter?
rified Ibo auimals ridden by the troops,
that a stampedo occurred among them,
while tho I minais made good their escape.
The professional barber in Florence,
S. C., is literally a carpet-bagger, who
has no business habitation. When
wau ted in tho hotel to exercise his pro?
fessional skill, a small flag is placed in
front of tho building. He comes, does
the tonsorial artisticalities, and demands
pay for bis services as high as it appears
to bim the customer's good nature will
allow.
Senator Beares, who was accidentally
shot iu New Orleans, died of bis wound
Sunday. Tho woman with wbom he was
found (not bis wife) nnd.bimself had boen

a struggle for the possession of a pistol
which bo was flourishing in a daugerons

A SAD EVENT.-On yesterday, all that
was mortal of an esteemed person was
hud in the grave. In the Methodist
cemetery, with the rites of the Episco?
pal Church, Mri. Elizabeth F. Tews
body was buried. This community and
the community of Hillsboro, N. C., will
unite in tho f-orrow which thia death ex?
cites. Mrs. Tew was the widow of Col.
C. C. Tew, who fell in the service of tho
Confederacy, at Sharpsburg. The re?
ports that prevailed, as to Col. Tew's
beiug alive and a prisoner at the Dry
Tortugas, excited, of course, the fondest
hopes in the mind of his widow, but at
last she was brought to feel and believe
that her husband's bo?y filled a soldier's
grave on tho sad field of Sharpaburg.
Her children were left to her. Forthem
she lived, and worked, and prayed; and
when, on j'e.sterduy, tho undertaker and
his assistants had completed their offices,
it was touching to see the orphaned chil?
dren of a true and gullaut Carolinian and
of his brave and devoted widow, lay
floral wreaths, tear-bedewed, upon the
grave of her-to them an earthly mother
no longer. Sad ia au event like this, but
iu the faith taught us, that God doeth
all thiugs well, and that He tempers the
i wiud to the shorn lamb-in this faith,
let us rest.
