Monday Last
Review or two ov our Fire
Companies.
Despite tbe ugliness of the weather
on Monday last the streets of Orange
burp; were busy with life and cheerful
faces, especially among the Firemen.
The aficrnoon of that day was set
apart for a review by the Mayor and
tbe Hoard of Fire Masters of the
Engines received the day before by
the Independent Citizens' and Comet
Star Fire Companies'. The Engines
were richly decorated, and pi esentcd
a very handsome appearance. Both
companies are composed of the best
and most substantial of our colored
fellow-citizens, and were spoken of
very flatteringly by every one who
saw them ou parade.
A little after 3 o'clock in the after
noon the two compauies formed into
line on Market street and were re
viewed by Mayor Boliver and the
Board of Fire Masters. After the re
view?which was highly satisfactory
?the Mayor was introduced and
gave the Firemen there assembled
some good advice. He told them
that they should obey their officers on
every occasion. That should be their
highest duty, and with such a resolu
tion ou their part a match could not
catch in Ornngeburg that they could
not put out. He was proud to see the
good feeliug which existed between
the white aud colored Firemen. If
the same sculimcut could find ex
pression everywhere, we would all be
tbe better .off for it. Mr. Boliver
pledged himself to do everything that
he possibly could for tho futhcrauce
of the interests if the Fire Depart
ment, and closed by bidding them a
good afternoon.
Mr. Riggs wos next introduced.
On-account of peculiar circumstances
he bad not been able to attend the
meetings of the fire companies, but he
felt-very proud to meet the Indepen
dent Citizens and Comet Fire Com
panies under such favorable auspices.
Was an old fireman and understood
its duties. Let each company en
deavor to emulate the other, and both
would become efficient at fires.
Would have new hose for them short
ly and would always take pleasure in
doing bis utmost to keep the two com
panies up.
Dr. Elliott followed and was Iis
_ tened. to with marked attention. Ho
warned the companies aguinst all
wrangling, and told them that the
first duty of firemen was obedience to
officers. Where there was confusion
there was no obedience, and conse
quently no ofiiciency on the part of
those who encouraged it. If the com
panies kept this in mind they would
prove a great bctlelit to the town.
Capt. Jas. F. I/ilar spoke next.
Confessed that he was uot only pleased
but satisfied with the exhibition be
fore him, and was gratified that the
Citizens and Comet Fire Engine Com
panies were not composed of a few
persons, but were made up of a num
ber of strong and stalwart men?
citizens who would do their full duty
nt fires. Would illustrate the duty
of firemen by an anecdote: Once a
man who had been living disagreeably
with his wife for years resolved to put
a stop to tho trouble. He procured
himself a rope, threw it across his
house, and after taking hold of one end
of it himself commanded his wife to
take up the other end and pull it down.
She did her utmost but could not
succeed because her husband was
pulling away nt the other end. Fin
ally he came around to her side and
joining with his wife thoy both togeth
I er brought dowu tho ropo without any
j difficulty. So it \tivi with fire com
panies. If they pulled together they
could do much good, but if they pulled
away from each other they destroyed
j tbe efficiency of both. The companies
should pledge themselves in presence
of tho Mayor and Council and the
Hoard of Fira Masters to do this, and
he could (hen heartily congratulate
I the town upon their organization. The
speaker warned them to do nothing
to degrade the Fire Department; to
lay aside all wrangling and endeavor
to sec who could best agree. If they
would do this, they would become a
prido to the Fire Department and
evoke the applause and well done of
the community.
D. A. Strnker, Esq., was then in
troduced by President Thompson of
the Independent Citizens, and made
on address full of sober words of
wisdom. On nccouut of its lcugth we
are compelled to defer its publication
until our next issue.
After the speaking tho two com
panies had a race, and threw water
against each other. Both received
prizes?one for speed and tho other
for throwing water the greatest dis
tance.
That New Paper.
The Charleston Journal of Com
merce is no longer xn imaginary affair.
On the first day of this month it put
in a real live, tangible appearance,
and will hereafter greet its friends
day after day the whole year round.
The Journal of Commerce- starts out
with a fine amount of advertising and
a large bona fide subscription. It is
Democratic in politics, but will be
independent in its views. The build
ing up of the commercial interests of
Charleston will receive a large share
of its attention. In short, the Journat
of Commerce will ere long become the
sine qua non of every household in tho
the" laud that desires to keep apace
with the times. It will speak no un
certain tone, nor regard tbe welfare of
South Carolina as a matter of serious
moniiut oi.ly at those times when its
own interests aie in danger. It will
battle in season and out of season for
the amelioration of the condition of the
suffering taxpayers. It will not hold
with the hare and run with the
bounds in the same breath. Tbe
miserable quasi Republican policy of
the A??r? and Courier will find a fit
ting rebuke in the bold and honor
able stand taken by its rival. We
commend the Journal of Commerce to
every person who desires a paper
honest and straightforwared in its
tone. Its conductors arc men of hon
I or and linvo never had any connec
tion with the rings that grew sleek
I and fat while Scott and his delectable
crew were sucking the life-blood of
South Carolina.
Helton's Successor.
Governor Chamberlain bos appoin
ted W. Mi Stone, Esq., law partner
of D. T. Curb in, Attorney-General to
fill t!ic unexpired term of the Hon.
S. \Y. Melton. Mr. Stone is not
known to fame, but it is said of him
that his record is clean, and that he
is a good lawyer. He suits the News
and Courier to a gnat's heel, and the
people of nil South Carolina, as a
matter of course, must sny nmen to
the selection.
The New? and Courier tries to salve
over the defeat of Trenholm's coali
tion resolutions in the Charleston
Democratic Convention, and puts
their defeat on the ground that it was
"inexpedient to adopt any platform;"
but the fact is, the convention did en
tertain the resolutions and proceeded
to vote on them seriatim, and the ma
jority vote was so decidedly condem
natory that, finally, the whole batch
were tabled, and this tables the policy
of the News and Courier.?Greenville
Daily New*.
Ilnw dare j'ou make auch an asser
tion, brother Speights? Don't you
know that South Carolina daro not
have a policy objectionable to the
Nctrs and Courier? Take it back.
Right in the Fuce.
The Editor of the Neios and Courier
got two slaps iu his face lately?one
from the Charleston Democratic
County Convention, which refused to
elect him to the State Convention, and
the other in the appearance of the
Jourwil of Commerce. Tho people are
tired of tho hot and cold policy of
that paper, and will give the Journal
of Commirce a hearty support from
the scahoard to the mountains.
The New Attorney-General.
Gov. Chanihcrlain has again ilout
ed the many Democrats who Jove him
so warmly, by treating them with
profourd contempt and nppointiagas
successor to Attorney-General Melton,
a blue-bellied Radical from Maine.
We speak thus because we know that
more than one Democratic lawyer in
our State was fool enough to be ex
pecting the nppoiutmcnt. But no.
As Chamberlain has said in all Iiis
letters and speeches, the glory and
perpetuation of tlt3 Radical party in
South Caroli;. a in his first and highest
aim.?hdgefichl Advertiser.
If Governor Chamherlain had ap
pointed some friend of the Advertiser,
we would have heard a different tune
from that county. As it is, wc have
the above snarl. What a pity it is
that some people arc so hard to
please ?
Tim Hurley and Kccgan, corres
pondent of the Washington Chronicle,
had a rough and tumble fijht iu the
lobby of the Charleston Hotel the
other day. A bystander, alter the scuf
fle was over, said he wouldn't have
cared ?if Huf ley bad killed Kefgan
and then hun ?r afterwards for it.
The members of the Charleston Bar
have addressed a letter to Judge Reed
pledging him their support for the
Constitutional term of his office, and
declaring their determination ^re
sist Whippcr. ' *

Florence Pioneer are gems of typo
