THE MANNING TIMES. Give The Public a Rest. SutrTOx, S. C.. ,ep p. 28. 1891. The Big Tempest in a Little Teapot. My absence from home has prevented a reply to the article in your paper of Septembe'r 9th in which you made fmther allusion to the difficulty at Foreston between my broth er, Tom Sparks, and John Wilson. I hoped that when the facts were given to the read ers of your paper in their true light. (as in my card of late date I endeavored to do) that the matter would be left to the majesty of the law to prove and3 substantiate the correctness of the same. But since you have seen fit to comment further upon it, there are a few questions I would like answered. and a little advice to offer, which if taken may prove beneficial in the future to yourself and paper, in mak ing it a sheet worthy the price of subscrip tion and time of reading, thereby increas ing its circulation, enriching its coffers, thus spreading the influence of both, to far more distant borders, than either has yet attained. Now Mr. Editor it seems, that you, who a few weeks ago. through the columns of your paper. would have this 'Big Tempest in a Little Teapot" appear a mountain oi crime, have become to look upon it as a mole hill. Will vou be kind enough to in form us what has' brought about this won derful change upon your part? If not we are left to presume it is due to the fact that Mr. Cantey has in his card denied giving you certain information, which you claimed to have gotten from him, and by this act, has thrown the responsibility of a mis representation upon you, and you would like things look a little better. And furthermore, Mr. Editor, why treat at such length the matter of carrying concealed weapons? This matter has not been under consideration, as by my card you will see that I only asked space in your columns for a correction of the report as to assault. It seems to me, that you are either endeavoring to justify the incorrectness of your former reports, or you would prejudice the minds of the people before day of trial. Read up the statutes of your State and you will readily perceive, that a charge of carry ing concealed weapons does not come with in the jurisdiction of a trial justice; there fore my brother could not have been lawful ly tried before Mr. Cantey, and consequent ly could not have been subjected to such fines and penalties as you might think just: doubtless you would have imposed the full penalty of the law, for you know, Mr. Ed itor, this is a grat big diculty between boys, one of whom simply defended his rights as a citizen of South Carolina, and against whom these charges are yet to be proven. And I would say that I believe that any ef fort upon the part of the Mmso Tams or its editor, to render a decision for the jury before whom this case will be tried, will but meet with that degree of indifference, and - contempt, which it would deserve. We are not yet a monarchy, but a free peo ple. and the men of Clarendon (from whom her jurors are drawn) are not ot such "met tIe" as can be melted and moulded by this paper or its editor. When we become sub jects of a kingdom, I think your chances for the crown would be good, but until then be content Mr. Editor to gather news for your valuable paper by that new and im proved process: "news pump." In conclusion let me give you some dots about your "pump" as I have some little knowledge of pumps, though it seems that the- one used in the Tnats office is of differ ent mechanism, operates differently and serves an entirely different purpose. Or dinary pumps are used for hoisting one of Gods greatest blessings to man, namely pure health-giving water. They are made of varous materials, and of many patterns, from the tiny iron one upon the back porch e.shelf, to the long, gaunt, cucumber which adorns the middle of the street. As to the. onoused in the MAiIso TIMxs office, I can say but little. I have seen it, it is fashion. ed to song extent after the one in the mid die of the street, but must be only a model, rough hewn, whose right angles, tiangles, -horiontals, and perpendiculars are yet to be rounded, corniced, capped, anid com pleted, if it proves a success. It differs from other pumps inasmuch as it is destin ed to 'pump" news for the MAN2Uo~ TIMSs. it is run by gas, and generates its own gas, and yet it "pumps" with such velocity, that the MANNING TIMCEs has to take it on the "fy " Mr. Editor, slacken your speed, for rt really seemsthatthings are getting mixed, and muddled. S&XtEI. Spars. We doubt very much the propriety or necessity of replying to anything above, but for fear that some of our - readers, like Mr. Sparks, read things -as they are not, we notice what he has to say about the matter at issue. Ogdu-rst allusion to the Sparks ....rWison fracas was made, as we have ie before stated, because it was some ~>thing so unusual for aboy to be car Srying around with him so deadly a ;weapon as knucks, and because the trial justice thought the case of so e~~anature as to demand a fine sOur second (and last) allusic'n to 1e fracas was made because Tom Sparks went to Trial Justice Cantey and asked him to deny in the TDIrs that he (Cantey) had written the ar tiele that first appeared in the TnIrs on this subject, at the same time tell in g him that we told him (Sparks) that he (Cantey) did write the article. 'The facts in the case are that the Karticle appeared in the Tnrus as if ~t written by the editor, and not as a communication; and we so told Tom Sparks, in the presence of his brother, Sam Sparks, distinctly telling them that we 'wxote it, and that Mr. Cantey did not write it, but that we had ob tained our information from Mr. Cantey. They raised a question that the difference in the ages of the boys wasa not two years, and that the fine wara $50or ffeen days, and not $50 or thirty days, as we had stated. We told them both these differences were of comparatively small importance, and not worth a correction, but that the serious part of the case was the car rying of the knacks, and told them if they could not deny that part of it they had better leave it all alone. They, nevertheless, disregarded our advice and insisted on being allowed to publish a card that Sparks was not two~years older than Wilson [we had stated on the information of Mr. Cantey.. that he was a year or two older), and that the alternative of the fine was 15 days not 30 days. They -did not say anything in this card about the knuchs. The public can judge why. The public can also judge why young Tom Sparks should have af terwvards told Trial Justice Cantey that we said Cantey wrote the article, 7 when we had a few days before told him and his brother positively that we wrote it. * EDIvOn Aaxisc Trmws.

When he slept with one eye open lie was looking for another ear ot corn, but when he smiled he was dreaiing of a pair of shoes h wanted that was fast hastening towards the enemivs gunbvats or stepping liglhtly for the bomb-proofs of W azhimngton.

Sweet home! The soldier knows what it is to be home. and when with the sound of distant cannon the long roll 1 was beat and Johnnie awoke gathering up his musket, cartridge box, canteen, and haversack. and taking out of his bosom nearest his heart a picture of Julia Ann with a faded bunch of violets he pressed it to his lips, threw a kiss towards his sunny South, waived~his faded cap above his head. and with that rebel yell that reached from right to left across the hills he guided cen ter, double-quick, charge, and was then go ing to get the shoes he had been dream ing of. A small infant's coflin was found in Jacks creek near St. Paul depot last week, having had the appearance of being placed under the water when the creek was full, the wa ter having since receded. While some ne groes were fishing in the creek they discov eret the coffin and reported it. The little coffin was taken up and the lid taken off, which revealed the small clothes and emit ted a stench agrecable to that of having con tained the body of an imperfect infant. There has been murder committed, but by whom no one as yet knows. Trial Justice Richbourg is working the matter up to trace out this foul and vilainous murder. We hope the guilty one may swing higher than Haman. The steamers on the Santee are now con testing with the C. S. & N. R. R. for the freights, and from the present shipments by the steamers the railroad will suffer loss, as the boats are carrying cotton at half rates. How long they can live at these reduced freights no one can tell, but competition is the life of trade, and the farmer and mer chant have saved some money by the fight for the trade. The ladies of St. Paul will have a festival at the Cross-Roads Academy on Friday evening, October 9th, for the benefit of re pairing their church. The public generally are very respectfully invited to attend and assist in this laudable enterprise. All who come will meet with a warm welcome. I. BUCKLEN'S ARNICA SALVE.

Snrrxr., Oct. 5.-Robert P. Mayes com mitted suicide at his home in Mayesville, S. C.. to-day by shooting himself in the breast. Mayes is the young man who got into trouble with the Sumter banks about a year ago. He fled to New York at the time, but afterwards came back to Mayesville, and has lived there ever since. The money he drew from the Sumter banks was made good. Surrma, October 6.-The particulars of the suicide of Robert Mlayes, at Mayesville yesterday, are ascertained to be that he had been dealing in cotton futures on the New York market and lost, so it is reported, about $5,000. Yesterday a representative of a New York house appeared in Mayesville with papers for the arrest of Mayes for fraud in connection with the deal. When Mayes heard of this he went to his room and shot himself through the body just below the heart. He lingered three or four hours be fore he died, during which time he said he did not want to live. He left a letter cx plaining why he decided to take his own life, but his family have not allowed the content-s of the letter to be made public. In the court to-day the case of Lawyer John R. Keels for forgigy was set for trial on Friday. Rev. A. .J. Stokes left here this evening to attend the Methodist Conference in Wasn ington. The wveather is rapidly turninag coldr, and looks stormy. A colored man ilamed Ivey Gordon was run ov'er by the train a few miles below here to-day on the Central railroad and killed, his body being badly mangled. His gun and dog were lying near him. Th'le dog was also killed. MALAlsIA Literlly means bad air.

"Adamant" Wall Plaster --xs - M-EN! est Material for Walls and Ceilings Ever Put Be fore the Public. The only thing about a building that has not improved for over 1,000 ears is lime plaster. But there is no excuse hereafter for falling ceilings, rumbling walls, broken and defaced decorations. ADAMANT is not a uess work mixture of lime, hair, and sand: it is a machine made mortar, ontaining no lime: it comes dry in bags ready to be used at any season by aixing with water only.' Any mason can apply it: bursting pipes or leaky oofs will not effect it. It's the best known fire resisting material in the 7orld, and it is impervious to disease germs. 1rchitects, Engineeus, and Scientific Men Everywhere, Endorse It, nd 300,000 buildings plastered within three years, is the only testimonial ; need offer.
