SCHOLARS AND CITIZENS. Wi'e Wordm on the Nature of Our Goiernment and the Dury of Voun; Men. Senator Hawley. of ('unecticut, in the course of a reccut address to students at Hamilton College. said: -It is impossibe tor one who m.av call himsIelf a veterma to come before an audien:e, of Voung mnCa without thikinkg of their future and the I future of their country. Boys are apt to think that if they had lived in the past they would have stood by Luther. have stood by Cromwell, have stood by Christ. I am not sure they wou.tl. Mut of the men of those times did not. Bul even now Chrkt is con stantlv benig (rucilled, contautly needs defenders. I do not htlieve in this discontent with the present. nor in this agitation for constant C change. There is one thing you may be certain of, we are bound irrevocably to the experiment of a government under which j we shall have universal suffrage. So it is, well for you as thinking , - to examine, not only your religious benef, but also your political belief. ;reat Britain is driving . ahead like a ship in a gale. Men forget that the constitution of England is not so perfect as oil- own. There is not so safe and conservative a government in the world as ours. In forty-ei;ht hours an unruly parliament could elfect a revolution and t overthrow the government of Great Br- I tain. Our -overnment is strong, our late war was but a reconstruction of its founda .tions." Further on he said: "I am very impa tient with those men who sneer at politics .-and politicians, who juke at the purity of womanhood and the sanctity of the church. There is no more honest work done in the 'United States than is done in the govern ment. The people believe this, while they say to the contrary. This is why the. as-q the government, although it would be a great mistake, to take charge of banks. rail roads and telegraph lines. There are too many who forget that the government is ourselves gone around the corner and come 1 in with another cap on. To place every thing under the government would be to take away the vitality of the people. Be sides, if we grumble now at the way 150, 000 offices are managed what would we do if we had the railroads and added 000,000 more?" He concluded: "As educated young men, you must not forget that the Lord and your e country have demands on you for what you have of talent. To be a politician in the best sense is second only to being a minister of the Lord Jesus Christ. The most cowardly thing on God's footstool is to run away from your government. Thou-h you may not be an active politi t cian, 'eep informed in matters of politics. Always go to the caucus, the beginning of ( government. Know what is beig done and see that it is being done rightly. Do your duty everywhere as scholars and American citizens, and everywhere above the plume and the bayonet shall wave the lilies and the palms of love and peace." Order of American Firenen. On the 15th of September, 1880, an or ganization bearing the above name was started by some of the most prominent tire I lighters of the continent. The object of i the Order is first to get the firemen of North America united into one brotherhood, af ter that it is intended to work together for mu tual benefit and the benefit of the fire ser- t vice of the country. There is no intention to get up strikes in the Fire Departments but always to make advancement in the science of fire fighting by mutual counsel and interchange of inormation. Another object is to secure for firemen a proper rec ognition for their services and ultiniatelv provide a fund for relief in case of injury or death. When the Order was organizedi the Firemen> 11eraki, of New York, was chosen as the official organ of the Order, not that it should advocate it editorially but that the Secretary should publish each 'week in its-columns an article, paid for as. an advertisement, setting forth the objects, aims and workings of the Order. From : the publication of these articles the Orderi has already attained a voluntary member ship of 1,300. The total dues and fees are at present 25 cts. which must accompanyt the application for membership. Address, for blanks and further informtion, Secre tary 0. A.

Clnverius Hansged. ,Cluverius, the murderer of his cousin, 1 Lillian Madison, whom he had betrayed under promise of marriage, was hanged in the Richmond jail yard at 1.10 P, M4. last Friday. In the jail yard is an electric fire alarm box, connected with the general system throuhout Richmond. His Excellency Go.Lehad ordered that the fire alarm be turned in from the jail station at the same time the drop fell. Promptly at I.10 P. 31. the massive bells rang out the deasth C knell, and the hearts of the people stood still for a moment to realize that the be trayer and murderer of his cousin had paid the penalty of his awtul crime. The peo ple uaarrounded the jail ini large, numbers, but only the few olhcers tnd witnesses r-e quired by law were admflitted into the jail yard. Dr. Hatcher, his spiritual adyiser, was with hinm, and he bore up to the last with that wonderful self-possession that has characterized himt throughout. .He said nothing after mounting the scaf fold. Dr. Hatcher said that the prisoner ree)peste4 him to say that he (lied whhout( ill-will to any one. He died protesting his innocence. Cluverius smiled while on the scadold, but was seen to shudder just before the drop fell. 'He (lied of strangulation. Thus ends one of the most interesting chapters in criminal history. The Grange Encaw pment. Capt John W. Wofford has commenced operations at the Grange Encampment at Spartanburg and is now engaged in cutting and clearing away all the unde-rgrowth and the unnecessary timber, preparatory to the erection of the necessary buildings. The people are very much in earnest, and in tend to make the cncampmnent a success, I so far as it lies in their power. The appro priation made by the Legislature for the exhibit of the Agricultural Department and the amounts subscribed by otir people. will go far towards completing all the ne cessary buildings. conveniences, &c. Every I . acomodation will be furnished by Az rail road lines centering there, and when ther connection between the Augusta and Spar- , tanburg and Air-Line is completed passen-e gers can be placed directly on the groundss from each one of our roads. It is hoped t that an experimental station may be estab-t lished on the grounds, in connection with f or adjacent to the encampment, and Mr. J. I - B. Cleveland has already ofe~red to furnishr all the land necessary, f ree fromt all rent ord expense, and 'to be used by the State ast .long as desircd for such a piurpose.
