Some Good Hard Sense. Gleatoxs, S, C June 7th, 1886. As regards crops in this section every thing may be classed two or three ?weeks behind to what it was up to this date last season, yet, notwithstanding the unfavorable* weather we had in May, which kept cotton from coming up,* we have some very fine patches that Will compare favorable with any in the county. There is a great many advocating the small farm system ami hireing but few hands, and 'tis those alone who are practicing it that suc cess seems to attend. There is not the demand for labor this year as has been heretofore, and from the tone of con versations among our planters gener ally the day is not far distant when there will be but little demand for cuffy's labor, by the day or month, and but little goods bought on time, and Avhen ever that day comes, which come it must, owing to the low price of cot ton, then will dawn on a burdened people the bright days of a brighter millennium. Then there will be but few mortgages given, for believe me, nine-tenths of the mortgages given by our planters is given to furnish corn and bacon to a class of people whose labor is so unproductive and unreliable that when the crops are gathered and sold and net proceeds placed to bis credit he is a long ways behind, with out a dollar, and a mortgage staring him in the face, a mortgage covering 'the lands and roof that shelters and feeds loved ones. A homestead given them by their ancestors, a place where in days past and gone peace and plenty reigned supreme, and want and poverty dared not come, but those were days when there was but little hiring, as our fore parents done their own work and were a happy and prosperous people; a peo ple who by industry and economy built up handsome little fortunes, only to be spe:at by their chilaren, in many in stances in idleness themselves and feed ing a class of laborers whose highest aims is to run their employer in debt, and with-hold from him the service that he has paid them for. Ephraim certainly is joined to his idols. Now on'e word regarding the much talked of Moses that is to lead our farmers out of this critical condition, this financial embarnissment that grieves them so. That Moses can never come. No legis lation by our representatives can en hance the value of cotton and other products of our soil, or compel the mer chant to dispose of his goods at a more reduced rate. The merchant is not to blame in the least; he is a trader; he puts up his goods, and we have our choice to buy or not to buy as we like. We are not doing our duty to our selves, to our God or to our fellow man to buy from the merchant all the sum mer and curse him all the winter. Let us buy but little and pay for that little cheerfully, plant but little and manure and cultivate that little highly, hire but little and pay that little promptly, if well performed; raise our corn and bacon, practice economy and we will be a happy and prosperous people. Coming events 'tis said cast there shad do ws a head, and I have a presentiment that the time is not far distant when our present up-hill way of farming will be a thing of the past, and feeding a laborer on provisions bought under a mortgage to idle and steal the time you have paid him for will be a-thing un known. Dent. P.S. The shell of three candidates is pipped. They will hatch soon in this community, then you will have them to raise. Blessed are they who trust in the editors. A Just Claim Recognized. M. F. Wharton, colored, who lives with Mr. R. H. Crawford near Troy in Abbeville County is one of the few of his race who was wounded in the ser vice of the Confederate States. "Whar ton was a free negro before the war and lived on his own farm at Harrisburg. Under an act of the Legislature of this State M. F. "Wharton was required to labor on the coast defences, and while thus engaged in 1864, at Marshall's Battery, on Sullivan's Island, he was wounded by a shell from a Federal gunboat, and suffered the loss of his left arm near the shoulder. Having heard that the State was giving aid to her disabled white citizen soldiers, Wharton applied to and obtained the services of Judge Lyon, who laid the matter before the Comptroller General by letter, and afterwards by a formal application for relief, aud in reply re ceived a warrant on the State Treasur er for sixty dollars. Wharton came up last Saturday, when his attorney pre sented the draft at the Abbeville'Bank, when it was cashed and without a fee, turned over the entire sixty dollars to the needy and unfortunate* man, who received the favor and money thank fully and turned his footsteps home ward rejoicing?Abbeville Press and Banner. We Take it all Hack. The Columbia Register thinks we did it injustice in classing it with free traders, and says that it stands exactly where Senator llutler does on the ques tion. We certainly were of the impres sion that both the Register and the News and Courier wen- advocating free trade, but are glad that we were mistaken, and that we still retain our good friends of the Register in the sheepl'old of Democracy and common sense. AVe are all for a tariff for reve nue only; but as a tariff for revenue only always protects something, we call it Tariff for Revenue only, with inci dental protection. "Absolute Free Trade," its is so tersely expressed by another, is "absolute insanity."?Edge field Advertiser._ Dangerous Courting. At Terrell, Texas, last Monday night week, Orange Terrell called on a young lady and found there Miles Henderson, another visitor. He immediately drew a pistol and shot the young man'in the breast and the young lady through the leg. 1 le laid down on a bed in the front room saying he was going to kill him self, but shortly afterwards City Mai shal Keller walked into the room and ordered hiin to throw up his hands, lie did so. shooting at Kellar at the same time, whereupon the latter riddled Terrell with bullets. ICiol ing in 1 reluml. Belfast, Ireland, had a lirst class riot last week. When the two bar-rooms were sacked, the mob was accompanied by a number of factory girls who goad ed the men on to battle. When the bar was entered they drank and participat ed in the orgies with more zeal than the men. Nine persons "were killed, among them a barmaid and a widow with two children. Twenty-live rioters we.-e wounded. A Cyclone of Forty-four Yeani Ago. Stories of the recent cyclone in Ohio are coming in quite freely, but they do not approach the marvelous stories of the tornado that swept up the valley of j the roaring Codorus, it) York county, in : the spring of 1842. After the storm we ! speak of one farmer lound that his well had been pulled up by the roots and was I hanging on the limbs of a white oak tree four miles away. A cellcr belonging to one of his neighbors was split in two, one hall* of it being blown through a stone quarry and the other half turned up endwise against a haystack in the adjoining county. A flock of geese were completely stripped of their feathers by the wind, and a dried apple pic was blown through the side ot'a school house, terrifying the teacher and scholars, be sides ruining a large map of the grass hopper districts of Kansas. A large barn containing thirteen tons of hay was lifted off it foundation and carried bodil y six miles down the valley, where it settled down so squarely that the doors could be opened without prying them The wind blew the tails off six Durham cows, and a Berkshire nig, weighing 200 pouuds, was blown completely through his skin, the hide remaining in a stand ing position and preserving an expression of naturalness that deceived many visi tors. The boundary lines of several townships were bent all out of shape, so that they looked like a curled hair mat tress on a hot griddle, and the air \va| blown so complely out of the valley that the people had to go up on the hills when they wanted to breathe.?Philadel phia Press. The Farmers' Movement. We learn from a member of the Beech Island Club who was in town yesterday that on Saturday last, the tegular club day. about fifty members were present?an unusually large meet ing?to receive Capt. B. R. Tillman. who made a speech to the club. The following resolution introduced by "Major Harry Hammond was adopted: ??Resolved, That we will not sup port any candidate for the Legislature who will not pledge himself to support the movement to give the election of the Board of Agriculture to farmers met in convention for that purpose." The object in view is to take the election of this important board out of the hands of the State Legislature, the duly authorized servants of the people, and to impose the responsibility upon a convention of farmers assembled ac cording to Captain Tillman's plan. The salary of the board and expenses of the Department will, however, be paid as heretofore from the State Treasury out of the privilege tax on fertilizers. It remains to be seen how many candidates will subscribe to the pledge.?Aiken Recorder. The Apostle of the Lepers. We regret to hear that the Apostle of the Lepers of Molonai is beginning to pay the penalty of his heroism. Shut away from all civilized and healthy hu manity, Father Damon has for years been a williug prisoner in the island, in which are collected and confined the lepers of all the neighboring Sandwich group. For a long time, though cut off from $he outward world, Father Daraen continued in good health, though alone among the dead. But the stroke has fallen at last. In a letter written re cently he says; "Impossible for me to go uuy more to Honolulu, on account of the leprosy breaking out on me. The microbes have finally settled themselves in my left leg and my ear, and one eye brow begins to fall, I expect to have my face soon disfigured. Having no doubt myself of the true character of my disease, I feel calm, resigned, aurl hap* pier among my people. Almighty God knows what is best for my sauctification, and with that conviction I say daily a good Fiat voluntas tua." Where is the heroism which will vie with this ':? London Tablet. Swept l>y Fire. New Westminister, B. C, June 15.?The city of Vancouver, situated at the Pacific end ol the Canadian Pacific Railway, is in ashes. Not a half dozen houses remain out of live hundred, and the worst of all there Is a large loss of life. Ten bodies thus far have been re covered and a number of persons are missing, supposed to have perished. One short hour did the whole work. The property saved is insignificant. A "clean sweep" defines the situation. A thousand men are at work' clearing up the debris for the railroad company. Twen ty contracts for rebuilding have already been let. Many men lost their all, but arc determined to start again. The prop erty loss falls directly on the pioneer element of the new city. Hundreds of people are camped nut. Cure lor Files.

MURDERED HER CHILD. A Wife Kills Her Little Boy Merely to Spite Her Husband* Stafford, Vt., June 8.?Mrs. Wil liam Sloan lias for Several months been extremely jealous of her husband, and the affairs of the tamily have been the topic of conversation among the villa gers. Mr. Sloan returned from work at an early hour last, evening. His little four-year-old boy, who always met him at the door, failed to do so. On going into the house he inquired for his son, but the only reply he received from his wife was that he had gone on an errand. As the hours passed he grew nervous, and finally aroused the neighborhood. A large number of neighbors assisted him in looking for the child. All night and this forenoon the search was contin ued without any clue to the boy's-where abouts. At 4 o'clock this afternoon one of the neighbors happened to look into . muddy drain at the back of the bouse, where he discovered the body of the missing child. There were several bruises on the face and body, and there was other evidence that he bad been murdered. The body was removed to Sloan's house and laid at the feet of Mrs. Sloan. She did not show any signs of emotion or surprise, and when spoken to merely said "it served her husbaud right to inflict such a punishment on him." The cool way in which she took the matter aud also as she had refused to join in the search, led the neighbors to believe that she had committed the murder. A constable took her in custo dy, aud shortly after being locked up she confessed having drowned the child. Her only reason for doing so was, as she said, to spite her husband. The shock lias made Mr. Sloan insane. RESURRECTION OF A DEAD MAN. A Corpse Breaks Out of ltd Cofttn Bleed ing and Pule. Toledo, June 10.?A most remarka ble case of suspended animation has just been brought to light in this city. Two years ago Hugh Mclntyre, a young man living iu Detroit, married a daugh ter of Mrs. Cunningham, who resides iu this city. A lew" days ago he died. His remains were placed in a vault temporarily at Detroit. Eight days after his death an uncle visited the vault with the intention of removing the body to the cemetery, and was horrified to see the young man sitting up in Iiis coftin, the glass broken. Young Mein tyre was very weak aud pale; his hands were lacerated and bleeding, but lie was still alive. He was taken at once to this city. His wife was terribly frightened, but delighted to see him after having mourn ed him dead. The family are very sn perstitious. and have kept the case quiet, although they admitted the truth of this statement to a reporter to-day. Excitement in Texas. Great excitement has been caused iu the vicinity of Paris, Tex., by the remarka ble recovery of Mr. J. E.

Its name has be come a tower of strength, and has been well earned by the untiring devotion of President Harper and his associates. Its astonishing prosperity has provoked attacks which are best repelled by a frank and full exhibit of its greatly increasing line of business. Up to July 1, 1885, this shows a gain of no less than 813 214,580 over that of the corresponping period last year. In June alone its mortuary receipts ex-| ceeded 5250,000, of which over960,000 went into the Reserve Fund?that triple buttress upon which the association justly prides itself. This reserve now amounts to ?425, ooo, and is employed for three purposes only?to pay death claims, if any should occur in excess of the American F-pperienee Mortality Tables; to make good any poss ible deficiency in the Death Fund Account, and to be apportioned among those who have been members of the Association fif teen years, etc. As the first and second contingencies named are not likely to arise, the third object is the one upou which the fuud is practically expended. It is full of other good points, among which may be mentioned the economical salary list?less than ?30,000 for carrying on the whole work of the vast institution?and payments to widews and orphans at the rate of over ?2,000 cash eash day.?From the old and conservative New 1 ork Daily Journal of Commerce, July 10,1885.
