African explorers do not very ofte return to tell us of that benightei country. The mortality among Afri can explorers is no doubt greater that elsewhere. It is for that reason tha we are glad to welcome in America i man like Mr. Herbert Ward, who ha not only successfully returned witi his life, but with a cargo of. valuable information which will greatly enricl the history of that young country. Mr. Ward ran away from home a the age of 16, and being an athlet naturally. had to resort to the hori zontal bar act in a New Zealand cir cus, and though this course would n< doubt cast a gloom over the souls o his English neighbors, it adds to hi glory in the hearts of Americans. No only the rank and fire of Americas people will respect him for his inde pendence, but Ward McAllister wil doubtless forgive him even for having joined a circus. Africa is the third sub-division it size geographically, among the grea countries of the world. It is composec of land and water. Four-fifths o its area being within the tropics, the climate is uniformly hot, and clothing stores do Dot pay, especially in the northern part. Mr. Ward has a large and valuabl collection of African curiosities anC souvenirs and included therei.-he ha the wardrobes of at least half a dozes African belles. He has to pay extra for his other baggage but not fo: these. One costume AN AFRICAN LADY'S TOILET. consists of a brief overskirt of hay There is no underskirt. Also n< waist. Also no sleeves. It is a cut< little wire grass lambrequin of variou colored African grasses, and woui last a long time, I judge, without re pairs. Another similar one is really only a hay fringe, which in a hig] I wind or in crossing a muddy street would expose the ankles to the cun ous gaze of Pagan dudes. There ar three of these dresses, and complet I they may be all carried in an ordinary card case. The chief charm abou these dresses is, that in changing fron one to the other there is very littl danger of taking cold. The grass dress is quite popula with the more civilized classes o women, and it is not uncommon a any time to see a kind hearted hus band going out shopping for his wif with a scythe over his shoulder. As al flesh is grass, however, some of the African ladies put off their haying sometimes for years. As one goes farther into t~ prov inces, Mr. Ward says, the men wveai the clothes of the family, allowing th< women as an offset to revel in th< joys of industry. Many of the Africal gentry wear garments of a fine sof bark which resembles buckskin i: texture and color. When it rains which sometimes it, does, for six o: seven months- at a time, the owne removes his bark clothes, otherwis< they would shrink and- render hiz [liabile for violation of 'a city ordi /nance. ; :g THE FATE OF MSszONxlES. T4is situation calls up the inquir; whether such a people may ever b< made consistent Christians and orna muents to society. At first we say n( of course. No people who eat thei neighbors with their knives, can be come thoroughly cultivated. No na tion who will go to a donation part; and contribute ham-sandwiches to thi pastor, can hope to ever become pillar of the church. On the other hand, all our greates anthropologists claim, and say the can prove it too, that the forefather of every race of people on the face ( the globe, once ate the flesh of thei enemies, and in times of peace, eve and anon, broke over the rule to'enjo; a fricassed friend. It is of course discouraging for u to send to such a country, our bes missionaries, knowing that they wil not last over iiore than two meals and vet we are told that a few centu ries wvill change all this, as the histor; of all other nations has alread; shown us. The Christian religio: works very gradually on such a pec ple. Mark Twain dropped in casuall, during ouir discussion of this ques tion, and said that in many cases, a he had noticed in the Sandwich I: lands, an apparent conversion was re ally a change merely of superstition: That seems to be the first stagec barbaric decline. The heathen watch es the physical prowess of the mis sionary, as Mr. Ward says, of a mis sionary who went to Africa and fo years could not awaken an interesi That was largely because he appeales to their religious. natures and thei thinking faculties. That is where h made a mistake. He might as wel have asked for an upright piano as; thinking faculty. But after he hal about given up regular religious ser vices, he took a notion to go out an< shoot a brace of elephants for Thank: giving. He did so. Much to his sur prise he then began to make convert: A man who could kill clephants with out the help of a local plaster-of-paris deity, ivas entitled to respect and con sideration. So a great upheaval en sued, and many brands were snatches from the burning. Scripture name such as Abednego and Methuselal were substituted for such provincia names as "-- a, - Crocodile any how," and "Go-and-...shoot-an Twvain said that an old Sandwiec bIslnder emblraced religion and waj regarded as a consistent christian. S< was his daughter. lie had a planta tion on the coast, and one day a neigi bor killed a shark there in that neigh borhood, not on the plantation, bu near enough the shore so that the ol, man's riparian rights entitled him t half the shark. According to th old-fashioned shark god the ti shoul be divided in a certain way. Accord ing to his own notion, he wanted t (ivide it another way. He defied th shark god and used his owvn judg m~ent. In the night his consciene ben to bother him. He got up an put some arnica on it, but that did no good. At last he went to a friend and - told him that inside of 48 hours death would be his portion. He said that he thought all the time that he had found a new religion, but he had not. = He hadn't the right thing. He had swapped one superstition only fo an other. At heart he was still a pagan. He told them not to send for a doctor, because he preferred to .die by him self, so that it would not be necessary to have an autopsy in order to show which doctor was right in the diag nosis. Sure enough, he died prompt 1 lv on time and his daughter followed l him, and yielded to the supremacy of - the shark god. It is a matter not of a 2 few weeks, this civilization and growth t in grace, but of lives and generations. SEATS CONTESTED IS A HIGHER COURT. The large number of red handed wife murderers who have scooted gaily from the scaffold to a little better lo cation in paradise than that of the wife they kicked to death during the preceding winter, would naturally suggest to us that people may be mis taken in the symptoms of their regen eration and election. Many who have f believed themselves to be elected, may, in the bright light of a Higher Court, find their seats contested. The execution of criminals, of course is a subject which interests us at this time. Electricity does not yet obtain in Africa, though there are other shocking methods of executions. A favorite one seems to be like this: The defendant is placed in a sitting posture, with nothing to sit on. He is then bound to two stakes which are driven into the ground by his side. His eyes are then bandaged. Next a cane collar is put around his neck under the chin. Now a tall, en thusiastic sapling is bent over so that j its top may be tied to this cane collar. This stretches the neck of the brunette homicide like that of a Christmas 2gobbler. The executioner now makes r a chalk mark across the back of the young man's said neck and spitting on his hands-his own hands-he swings a big cleaver around his head seven or eight times. All at once, as some one looks at the strange scene, a he notices that the head of the homi a cide is missing. Some boys climb the I fence, and over in the kraal back of - the bungalow they find it. A fight over r the head follows amid much merri 1 ment. Missionaries on the Congo, it is said, will soon resort to the method of a revival now so popular among the ne a groes of Georgia, by offering a large watermelon to each convert. It would t have been tried this year had the I melons been given an opportunity to a mature, but they were prematurely eaten. Even the usual sign, r -------............................... f : i.Do not eat these watermelons. They are green and God bless you- : did not save them. Mr. Ward has received a gift, for instance, of bananas, plantains, and several pounds of human flesh from an admirer, just as an old frontiersman -always sent a sparerib to his neighbor when he butchered. Cannibal eti Squette is worthy of a close study, and the tableware, such as eye spoons, Sbrain spoons, and blood scoops, serve to make one glad that, even if New 2York does not get the World's Fair, it will not go up the Congo. SMr. Ward in five years of life -at a s tretch in Central Afric~a has become very thoughtful indeed, and days of 1unremitting toil and nights of intense .anxiety have caused a grave and ear nest nature. It is not the killing of a lion or a tiger or an elephant alone that entitles an explorer to the pro found consideration of those who re e main at home, but the great courage Sand steadfastness of purpose which , enables a man to brook delay for r months while an ignorant old royal - Aunt-eater ponders over the problem - of whether he will let the white man i cross his picturesque jungles and well e kept swamps or not; delays that are s dangerous, and yet often unmarked ,by any incident for days outside of Sthe regular royal assessment. Then comes the treachery, the deadly dis s eases that lurk in the imperfect sani tary arrangement of interior Africa, r and the general curiosity to know r how a young Englishman would taste i with coon gravy. AFRIcAN HOME LIFE. t Self-denial, he says, is the key to L civilization. These savagda yield to , every appetite, regardless of the rules -of God and man, and cease not until y every desire is quenched in brutal y repetition. That is the whole differ oence between a bad man and a good -one. The African elephant is useless as a y helpmeet to man. In the days of the -Phoenicians the elephant was, accord s ing to history, a good animal for farm. -ing purposes and a good pair of -2-year-old steer elephants would plow .three acres and a half of new land feven among old ebony stumps and -half decayed mahogany rails, but now -he is emancipated. He hangs about -the plantations and tramps on the ge. r ranium beds. . The only domestic animals there are the crocodile and the flea. The r elephant declines to be domesticated, e but when annoyed has been known .1 to domesticate a Congo gentleman by a knocking down a few palm trees with: him and then puttiog the balance of .him in the ash barrel. I The only good point about the -crocodile and the only way in which -he is useful is the way of eating his . amily sometimes while thinking -about something else. The male -crocodile very often eats up a whole -pimary~ school of little crocodiles and then chases the teacher two or three miles across the fields. s Money on the Congo is iron mostly, a big spear head being worth as much ,1 as an ordinary man or two women. -Women are cheap and illiterate. - Their aspirations are not high. An elephant's tusk is worth a man, and 'generally costs that much before you~ s get it. Men are adults at 13. Cannibalism is rarely practiced in cold blood but mostly after drinking heavily and the maddening dances and orgies which follow a victory; sc it that possibly prohibition in Africa might lead to a vegetable diet and ul. o timate civilization. Whether Africa e will ever go "dry" or not, is very hard a to tell at this time and the outlook is t rather discouraging. o T~here are rarely more than twc e children in one family and home ties -are somewvhat relaxed. With these e social peculiarities combine the regu d ln- o1,d fahined vendetta whieb flourishes there and (ie custom c killing off the old people, burying th widows alive with th &[ead lhusbani~ poisoning peo ' w o are suppose to be si tiis to the wiethcraft habi ' tohtering a man's servants whe he dies, so that they can be on han to dust him off when he gets to per dition, and the custom of coo kin your enemies, eating your neighbor and picking your friends and you wi relieve Africa from any impending danger of over population especiall as immigration so far is easily coi trolled.-ill1 ?ye in Chiarlesatoni Rao get.

We are pleased to state that we now have in store and are daily receiving one of the most COMPLETE STOCKS - of Merchandise ever brought to the interior. Our stock consists of All Lines of Merchandise. Hardware, Dry Goods, Groceries, Crockery, Queensware, Tinware, and in fact any and all articles and items that the average man or woman could want. We have on hand one of the finest lines of Cooks ever brought to any market. We have in this line of Cooks all numbers and sizes. Small enough for the young man just mar ried, and large enough for a family of twenty. We have taken great pains this year in the se lection of our stock of Fancy and Staple Groceries, and all we can say is that we want all the good accounts in town and in the country. We can and will sell you all the goods you want cheaper than.you can buy them, and all you will have to do to convince yourself of this fact is to come and see, and you will be convinced that our stock by far is superior to anything in this section of the State. We keep no goods but what-we tiiy1 iiifirst bands, and all such we can recommend. Besides this we have abolished the old mode of transacting business. In former years, we owing to the fact that we like all Americans like to keep up with the fashion and the ways of all around us. have sold.4oods too high in order to make a good showing of assets. But the writerj d a dream. He was in his office, he had ledgers piled high, that represented thousands of do ars. :3-S claims out of date. barred by the Statute of limitation, 3-8 barred by the right of ,is landlord, and 2-S barred by the drought and expiration of wind in the lungs of old ponies ad blind mules. All these amounts kept running on: each year they were footed up as assets-a big bubble made, filled with air. and like the boy's soap bubble soon burst, ten ant gone, account worthless. He had run the tenant in the spring and summer, when naught was in sight; the landlord took him up when the cotton came in. He awoke, and swore that he would never follow such business agzain; that brigzht as the prospects might be, that armed with all the wisdom and energy he could conmaind, and closing his ear to the suffering of the past, He would forever quit the old mode, and change his business to something tangible. So this year we have done so-we will sell you all the goods you want for credit or cash at lower prices than you ever bought at before; but let's have some idea when you are going to pay. We don't want any more millenlliuill accounts or notes. We may not be present to collect them and the banks don't. want any paper over four months, and we sincerely trust we will get the crop of 1889 out before it comes. for we have one of the largest crops this year that we have ever had. No introduction is needed, no apology is offered for 1889. It comes freighted with the wisdom of centuries and each corn crib is loaded with the richest treasure that God ever gave man. Bread no object and Bacon at the price we are selling, no one can complain. And all should feel good this year. Let us get out of debt; let all of us commence anew. and the prices we are selling any and all lines of goods at to-day, will con vince all that come that some miraculous change has taken place. Well it has. We Want to Live, and Want You to Live! and we therefore shall try and please all in prices and goods, and we want to build up in Man ninug what Clarendon County needs, a first class store where you can get what you want andare in need of at a living price, and in order to convince you of this we must ask you to come and see. Yes, crops are magniiient this year: cottoll brmgm better prices than for years: let us get out of debt. and work on a cash basis. I am prepared to offer for the cash the greatest inducements that any nerchailt can olfer. Comte to see mle. lours respectfully, MOSijS LEVI. BIG BAR GAINS H. T. AVANT'S RACKET STORE.
