The Kershaw Gazette. BV FRANK P. HEARD. Camden, Kershaw (oanty, S. C. WEDNESDAY, 41 LY 29, 1874. Tiik first bale of new cotton, wa* received in New York on the 17th inat., aud nlJ at 36 cents per pound. It was grown on the llio Grande. Tn* Republican State central committee met in Columbia, last week, and appointed the 8th of Sapcomber for the meeting of the State Convention to nominate State officers. Chicago, the city of Area, has sustained another loss bj the terrible flames, which occurred oa last Wednesday. This time the loss reaches oalj about $260,000. Ths Orangeburg A'?w, a' fierce advocate of Radical theories, vith the nams of E. H. Chamberlain hoisted as its eendidate for Governor, threatens to "sapport a straight out Democratic ticket," in preference to some of the Republican candidates in that ccun *J. _ Wi learn from the Netrt and Courier that the Attorney-General has appealed from the decialon of Judge Graham as to the receiva bility of the bills of the Bank of the State for taxes. The case will be brought before the Supreme Court of the State at the next term. In the meantime, all proceedings on the part of the county treasurers to enforce the collection of taxes, in the eases under argument, will be stayed. The Trustees of th<! Louisville Medical College, appreciating the impoverished con dition of the whole country, have determin ed to grant a Beneficiary Scholarship to any young man, who, sufficiently educatd to study medicine and of good character, is un able to pay for his education. To secure this valuable aid, npplication, with a full statement of the facts, should be made with out delay to D'r. E. S. G a ill aud, Dean, Louisville, Ky. THE DULL. SEASON. Every one will understand the meaning of the above caption without explanation. From time immemorial every Southern town and community, with rare exceptions, has had its "dull season," which lasts from June un til October. The philosophy of "the dull season," in the days of slavery was ebvious. We were then an almost purely agricultu ral people. The stir of oommeroe and of trade lasted during the winter months and into spring, only until the crops had been shipped and exchanges of commodities made. Then the towns became listless and deserted. The qoiet and effective labor of the planta tions for another crop was resumed under a well organised system of overseers, and the P*?l -ftrr genial dime. But the Southern people m bear in mind that the old order of things has passed away. Southern towns can no longer afford tto have a dull season. It is true that (here is a certain amount of ener vation to be overcome, but it is equally fruo that the capacity exists to conquer this by an exercise of the simple power of will. It is also true that in the ago in which we live mnch more of labor, mental and physical, is crowded into a few months, than in olden times was comprehended in the wholo cycle . of the year. 80 that the argument for re laxation comes with force. But that relax ation can be of a nature to stimulate the sys tem to rcnewod and healthful exertion, and at the same (Ime to drive everything like dullness away from the oommunity. These reflections are superinduced by the sound of the hammtfr and the saw, soon to be suc ceeded by the sight of comely buildings con structed upon our streets. The enterpris ing citiaene engaged in the erection of these improvement# are teaching us all a useful lesson, if we will but learn it. Let this spir it penetrate each member of the oommunity and in a while, the traditional "dull season" will be but a tradition indeed. A NEW PAPER. We are in roceipt of a copy of the Char leston Daily Sun, the new paper just started in that city, with Judge Thomas as editor in-chiof, and Mr. Eugene Durhoc as business manager. The general "make up" of the paper is xcry neat, and tho facile pen, of Judge Thomases a guaranty of what its edit orial columns will be. It* political oomploi ien may bo better-known l<y the following extract from the flrst issuo.* ? "Wo propose to deal with issues a# they arise, always taking the shortest road to the establishment of white civilisation nnd an escape from that barbarous Africsnitation into which unscrupulous white men, for eelftsh ends alone, would plunge our State To this end we ask the oo-opcra(lon of all white people who are not renegade*, and all colored people who expect to remain per nianently in this country, who have white principles, who worship the some Clod with the white man, and who are determined to adopt his manner of life rather than relapse info the condition of their fore-fathers. This is tho issue at present, plainly slated. Wo shall always speak kindly of the colored race, for we know the day will onme when harmony will be restored upon the basis we have laid dowu." RET. MR. HEECHER** VACATION. On Sunday Rev. H. Ward Beeehee pr?eel - ed his last sermon before the summer reases.

Editor.?Aa pom* of you* readers would doubtless be interested, 1 will glT* you a fvw notss eoneeruing the meeting ef the Gnu>d Division, Sons of Temperaaee, of South Carolina, which convened at this place wn the 2"?M and adjourned on the even iug of the Xid iost., after a pleasant and harmonious session. G. W. P. Hkins. G. W. A. Cook, 0. 8. Hewitt, G. C. Marshall and P. G. W. P. Kennedy were at their pjsts. The atten dance was pretty food from the various por tions of the State, but not as large as we had hoped to see. P. M. W. P. Towasend was prossut, manifesting his interest ia the cause. Th? reports of the Grand Worthy Patriarch and Grand Scribe were very en couraging. ^uite a number of new mem bers was introduced. A public meeting was held on Wednesday night, which was addressed by P. M. W. P. Townsend, P. G. W. P. Kennedy and oth ers. On Thursday night, Rev. Mr. Strickland, of Darlington, delivered a discourse on the subject of Temperance, taking for the text "Thou shall not kill." lie handled the subject most effectiv^, dealing heavy blows to the drinker and vendor. We cannot doubt that a salutary impresson was made in the community. The members of the Order manifested much seal in the cause, and the indications of awakenod interest are manifest. Let every Sou of Tempcrancc buckle on nis armour with renewed ardour, and battle for the spread of Love. Purity and FIDELITY. K. C. MONUMENT ASSOCIATION. At a meeting of (ho Board of Directors of the oodth Carolina Monument Association . on Monday, July 18, 1874. the follow ing statement of finances was made by the Treasurer, Mrs. W. K. Bach man .? Total amount received, $5,003,16 ; small expendi tures by Authority ot the Bdard of Director*, $124.CJ ; paid Muldrow & Co., architect* of tho monument, $5,470, 53. About $6,(XX) are atill wanting to com. plete ihe ium due. Tho Board of Directors confidently hope that the different Districts will noon report a sufficient amount collected to enable the work to be finished. On motion, Mrs. Annie DeMantsui was unanimously elected a member of the Board. THE FIRST ?UN FOR GRANT. OEL.AKS, July 21. The Fourth Congraaaional District Rcpub. ' n Convention, at Coushatta, nominated George L. Smith for .Congress, and passed resolutions endorsing President Grant for a third term. From the News and Courier the cotton crop. if familiar with theootion plant, and who has just re turned from a trip to the interior of this Bute, particularly the Countiea of Greenville ^M?gon^Jnion^^^cai^||>j|ki^^||| .PT?m^? in hisjudgement wwni was formed fi-om an observation of the plant along the line r' road, the growth looks very irregular, is d cidedly backward and has a mint show of forms. Unless the season from this out should prore extremely favorable the product cannot equal the com mon expectations, and if the weather in the remainder of July, and throughout August prove bad the sixe of the crop mar be ex ported to lessen In a remarkable decree The whole question is yet to be solved by the character of the weather to be experienced further on in the letion. THE INDIA* TROUBLES. The military authorities have taken all ne cessary precautions to guard against any hostile raids on the part of unfriendly In diana Gen. Pope thinks that there is now no serious danger to be apprehended from the operations of the savages, as the distri bute of the troops will allow then to meet an emergencies. Considerable indignation is felt in Wash ?Ction of Patterson, of 8ouU? Oar?hna, who has been using his Sen atorial influence in the several departments ofthe Government for the purpose of having good and efficient clerks discharged, in order that he may have some of his persona] friends appointed in their stead.

InaUM of the boll and' army worms having destroyed three large plantations in Middlo Alabama withio three days, they have done but little ornodamaae as yet. ? AIIOUT A NEWSPAPER. The Ix>uisville "Courier Journal" has the following sonsible remarks regarding the management of a newspaper : Fome people estimate the value of a news paper an I tho talent of iu editor by the quantity of o.ginal matter. It is compara tively an easy task for a ft-othy writer to p< ur out dally a column of words?words upaa ?ny and all sutyect*. His ideas may (low in one weak, washy, everlasting flood, and the command of his language mar enable him string them tog^thJrHke buLhi of onions, and yet his paper may be a mnsgro and poor concern. Indeed. the mere Writ lag part of editing ? paper is bat a small par don of the work. The oara, the time em ployed la selecting la fWr more Important, and the tact of a good editor in batter shown by his selections .ban anything else; and that, wa know, la half the battle. But, as wa have said, an editor ought to be estima. W>d and hit labor anda-atood end apprecia ted bj the general conduct of kie paper?its tinea, Ua uniform consistent course, Its aims, manllnaw, its dignity and its propriety. To preserve these as they should be preserved henough (o occupy fVIv the time and atten fi>/n o/any m.in. If this be added to the general su|>ervision of the new^pnper e*?ah H hitiont. wliioh most editor* have to en - Co-mlf. the wonder Is ho* they fi? I time t ? Wi.ie at eil THE TAX UMOSS. Senator C. D. Hayne, colored, and Henry Sparaick, Eeq. a prominent candidate fur O^aptM from his district, and editor of the Aiken Tribune, both influential Republicans, have enrolled their names, aa member* of the Tax Union of Aiken county. Among the suggestion* of the Aiken Union, to wkkh be long erreral leading Republicans, we find the following : 4th.' That the Tax Union be composed of all honest, tax-paying ciritens, irrcepective of party or race, who may be opposed to ex cessive and exorbitant taxation, and in favor of a just and eoonomicnl taxation, and an honest expenditure thereof. 6th. That the datyef each member shall be to keep a close and constnnt watch on all public officers, who are, after all. nothing but their servants, and whenever they hate reason to suppose that corruption, oppres sion, or tnalfeaaacoe is being practiced, they do report the same immediately to the Un ion, whoae duty It should be to investigate, and, if necessary. proeecute such officer or officers to the utmost extremity of the law. 6th. TV at, while the Tax Unions are non politieal aa to party and race, they should be compoeed of honest men, whose duty it should be to endeavor to place honest and trust-wort by citiiens in office. The Republioans of Aiken hare sat an ex ample worthy of imitation by the Republicans in Marion, and we do hope that every hon est tax-payer in our county who earnestly desires reform in our 8tate Government, who favors a just and economical taxation, and an honest exptditure thereof, will en roll his name on the Tax Union register. We hope to see all honest men without re gard to rncfc or political party moving to gether for the general good.?Marion Star. Reconciliation.?In a card signed by both, ihe Hon. A. II. Stephens and Geu. Toombs, of Georgia, announce that the re cent alienation between them no longer ex ists, and that the cordial friendship of near ly forty years' oontinuance is again perfectly restored. This will prove gratifying news to their friends everywhere. Cowc.nrssuAit Cobb, of North Carolina, (white) Republican puts this oonuudrum to himself : "If I go for the civil rights bill I shall not be re-elected : if I go agninst the civil rights bill I shall not be re-clocted; what in the h?1 am I to do, pray," The State of Mississippi has a liquor law differing in one important feature from that of any other State. It not only embodies the principles of local option and persona1, responsibility of the liquor seller, but for bids the issuing or renewal of any licens ex cept on petition therefor, signed by a ma jority of the men over twenty-one and of the women over eighteen year* of age, in the townsip, ward or precinct where application is made. This feature of the law was adopt - | ed about three months ago, and it is claimed by its friends that during that period very I few, if any, licensee have been kmued in the State. OFFICIAL. .
