THE JOURS AL.
JOHN KERSHAW,
PROPRIETOR.
"CAMDEN, S.~C7MARCH 20, 1873~~
Thanks.
We have been received by our brother
" Knights of the VJuiU" witn comment i
most flattering, and a welcome into the J
ranks of the fraternity most gratifying, because
most kindly, and This, without regard
to party.
Though this may, in some cases, be no
more than the salute yielded by knightly
courtesy to a new champion that enters the
lists before the combat begins, it none the
# less demands tha courtesy of a sincere and
appreciative acknowledgment in the same
spirit in which it is accorded, and here we j
repeat, "thanks, kind friends and generous
foemeu."
Demoralization, Public and Private.
Tho task of the journalist of the present
" :j? j..
day is by no means light, 11 ne consiuem uuly
his responsibilities. The outlook is gloomy
in the extreme, and well calculated to engender
bitterness, and even despair. When
we consider how much of misery to the individual
results from brooding over the bad,
duty and inclination impel us to bok for the
bright sptos in the dark pictures and only
refer to the more dismal features of the times
when forced to do so, as faithful sentinels
upon the watch-iowcr. We dare not cry
peace wheu there is no peace, and beguile
the innocent into fancied security, when
danger stalks abroad. Wo are but too well
aware, unfortunately, how low the standard
of public morality has fallen here in the
South, flow corruption assails the fountains
of legislation, tho administration of office,
x the ballot, the press, and every department
n of the public interest, except (if we may except)
the administration of justice. Every
day brings forth some new development of
infamy, some new frand upon the long suffer?
nil atir>r>PRsfii] villainv.
lug pwpCj nuv pij *v* ?? ??vv ^
While we write, our eye rests upon a passage
from our cotemporary, the South Caroli>
nian, which, perhaps, more forcibly sounds
the depths of wickedness and depravity to
which we have descended, than almost anything
else that has come under our observa
tion. We allude to the last phase of the
history of the Blue Ridge Certificates, which
having been repudiated by the Courts, were
taken up by th<^.egislaturc for consideration,
the clause of the act giving them credit,
repealed by an act that passed both Houses,
after having been mysteriously put out of
the way while it was under consideration,
was exhumed by the sagacity of Mr. Hurley,
and finally was rnthlessly smothered by the
Committee on Enrolled Acts, who failed to
" " 1 Tf
transmit it to tne uovernor ior approval. u
such a precious piece of villainy as this is
to.be tolerated, all legislation becomes a oontemptible
farce, and there is no security to
f the public interests whatever. If the great,
party of progress can protect its legislation
no better than this, it had better give
place to other people, who are Uss advanced.
Whili we are enduring such inflictions,
wo are not to suppose that we are in a very
much worse condition, morally, than our
neighbors of the North. Tho Tammany
frauds, tho Credit Mobilier business, the
Pomeroy bribery case, and many others, aud
thegeueral indifference of the public to their
shameful corruptions, would indicato that
tho rottenness in State affairs there, had
reached a point quite as rank as that existing
here. There is in that region no plea of
ignorance or want of education or astuteness
on the part of the people to excuse the immunity
from punishment enjoyed by offenders,
and this would tend to show that pub
lie opinion is itself demoralized, and either
from familiarity or favor, found in corruption
nothing to censure or punish.
As to private morality, we fear the case is
bad enough, whether we look at homo or
abroad. We know there are large classes of
the people of all sections of the country
whose virtue shines the brighter for theoontrast
with the vico surrounding them, but
there are revelations occasionally mado, that
evidence an amount of depravity most heartsickening
and deplorable. Take the following
one: Mr Anthouy Comstock has lately
written a letter to a member of Congress,
telling him of his own exploits in the destruction
and suppression of obscene literature,
etc., during the past year. Among
the articles unearthed and destroyed, ho
enumerates:
"Obscene photographs, stereoscopic and
other pictures, more than 182,000; obscene
books and pamphlets, more than 5 to us; obscene
letter-press in sheets, more than 2
tons; sheets of impure songs, catalogues,
hand bills, &o., more than 21,000; obscene
microscopic w_tch and kni*e charms and
finger-rings, more than 5,000, obscene negative
plates for printing photographs and
stereoscopic views, about 052; obsceno engraved
steel and copper plutos, 350; obscene
lithographic stones destroyod, 20; obscene
wood-cat engravings, more than 5. tons; obscene
transparent playing card? from 5,500
to 0.000; obscene and immoral rubber articles,
over 30,000; lead moulds for manufacturing
rubber goods, twelvo set, or more
than 7??0 lbs.; newspapers seized, about 4,600;
letters from all parts of tho country ordering
these goods, about 15,000; names of dealers
in account books seized, about 6,000; list of
names in the hands of dealers, that are sold
as merchandise, to forward catalogues and
circulars to, independent of letters and account
books seized, more than 7,000; arrest
of dealers since Oetober 7, 1871, over 50;
publishers, manufacturers and dealers dead
since March last, C.
That^uch horrors should exist at all is a
shame and a blot upon our humanity, but
that they should find, as they must have
found, numerous and appreciative patrons,
is enough to make us pauso and" question the
form of civilization that produces such fruits.
These arc sad pictures of our boasted progress,
but it is not worth our while either to
shut our eyes to their existence or lay to our
souls the flattering unction that ether people
are as bad. Let us rather realize from
the review, that we are not doing our duty,
that public opinion must be aroused to some
thing better than political agitation, that
our civilization is about to go down in a sea
of corruption, if we do nothing to stay the
tide.
A Gallant Soldier.?The Edgefield
Advertiser gives the following incident of
the late war. It was a noblo acknowledgement
by a gallant soldier of his appreciation
of the bravery of a minister of the gospel.
"During Longstrcet's campaign in Tennessee,
while a portion of his army was under a
fearful fire of shells from the enemy at
Campbell's Station, a private soldier, within
a few feet of the Colonel of his Regiment,
had both of his legs torn off. The regiment
was not fightning, but waiting orders. The
wounded man was lifted a couple of yards in
rear, to die. Another private now marched
down the line nndera hail of missiles, and
said to tho commanding officer, "Colonel,
may I have a few moments of prayer with
Kq# ^trtnry mnn The Colonel said. "Are
you a clergyman ?" The private answered,
"I am." "Then," said the Colonel, "do as
you desire." And the man of God knelt
and prayed with and for the dying man five
or ten minutes, without moving or swaying
his body, seeminly totally unconscious of a
storm of shot and shell, which, tho Colonel
tells us, he never saw surpassed in fury. In
a few days the praying private was announced
in fioldorders as Chaplain of the Regiment
?"promoted for gallantry and piety on the
field." The Regiment was the Hampton
Legion. The Colonel was Gary. The private
soldier was the Rev. W. M. Thomas, now
pastor of the Methodist Churches of our
circuit.
Dr. Tutt's Pills.?Is a purely vegetable
concentration for keeping the Bowels in
natural motion and cleansing the system of all
impurities, and a positive cure for Constipation.
!fhcy restore the diseased Liver,
Stomach, and Kidneys to a healthful action,
while at the same time they brace and invigorate
the whole system.
Dr. Terr's Celebrated ExpectorantIIow
It Acts.?First it detaches from the
bronchial or wind tubes the mucus or matter
which sometimes adheres to them with the
tenacity of glue. Secondly, it mitigates the
paiu and removes tho constriction of the
bronehial tubes and muscles of the chest.
Thirdly, it resists the progress of inflammation,
and assists the lungs to throw off the
irritntinrr TvhlVli nOPnmillntOS.
MARRIED.?On the 12th inst., by Rev.
A. K. Durham, Thomas B. Walker, Esq, of
Fairfield, and Miss. Matilda Wilson, of
Camden.
Departed this life on the Cth of March 1878,
Mrs. J. Shivkb, wife of Mr. Thos. L. Shiver,
aged 50 years and 9 months. For the last thirtyfive
years of her past life, she has been united to
the Buptist Church, and alwaysattendcd the services
of her Heavenly Father, unless Providentially
prevented. During the last few days of her
sickness her suffering was intense, but her last
momeuta of'life were peacftfl and tranquil,
passing away gently from this earthly life to a
far happier und glorious one. Let us live the
life of the righteous that we may die their
death and that our last moments may be like
thcir's.
Dearest mother, thou hast left us;
Here thy loss we deeply feel;
But 'tis God that hnth bereft us ;
He can all our sorrows lien1,
Vet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fled,
There in heaven with Joy to greet thee,
Where no farewell tear is shed. Love.
Another Old Soldier or the Cross Gome?
Our old brother Isom Jaclso.n, was born October
21, 1788, and departed this life January
31, 1873, being 84 years, 3 months and 10 days
old. He married in early life, and raised a
large family, several of whom were taken away
before him.
We huve no record that shows when brother
Jackson was baptized, but the Baptist Church of
Christ, Bethegda, Kershaw County, S* C., was
constituted on the 26th ?f Ootober, 1823, and he
was a constituent member. My first acquaintance
with him was in November, 1886, and the
most friendly relationship in Chriat remained
between us until his death. In 1841 he used
the office of Deacon in that Church, which office
he filled till his departure, lie manifested his
Jerus Chriat very clearly, by his pious walk and
Godly conversation, and sustained the character
of a true christian among all who knew him.
He suffered under a long and lingering disease,
which he bore with great christian fortitude
and resignation until he fell asleep in the aims
of Jesus. He left an aged and affectionate companion,
who had been partner with hinfln his
sorrows and joys about three score years, several
children, grand-children, grent-graud-chil- j
dren and a host of relatives te mourn tljeir loss
But we sorrow not as those who have no hope,
