The Calhoun day celebration of the
Calhoun Light Infantry was a most
interesting and pleasant alfair. The
attendance at the Auditorium was dis
appointing but the interest shown in
the company by the ladies wno gathered
on the streets to se^ the parade was
very encouraging
Owing to the sickness of his private
secretary tne governor could not be
present and wi ote regretting the matter
very much for he has been very anxious
to visit Florence and something has al
ways interfered. The bereavement in
the family of Gen Frost prevented his
attendance. The prog-am tvas »bort.
There was a dtill on the street in which
the company acquitted themselves very
creditably after that they returned their
guns to the armory and entered the au

(as always) zealous for the honor and
welfare of the whole union denounced
the insults heaped upon us, protested
against the non interference policy of
Jefferson and Madison and raised his
voice for war. His ability was soon re
cognized and he was made Chairman of
the Commit! eee on Foreign Affairs
which committee reported a declara

prosecution of the war which was op

their owners. Abusive pamphlets and
misleading books like Unde Toms Cab
in misrepresenting the condition of
the slaves and basely slandering the
planters of the South were everywhere
circulated. Petititons praying for the
abolition of slavery were poured into
Congress. Against this passionate cru

mortal combat for the four years. He

The telegraphic dispatches in

STRAW BERRY SEASON.
Truck Fanners Anxiously Watching
. Weather and Plante.
It will soon be strawberry season and
from now on plan‘ers of berriAs will
watch the indications of the weather
very closely. The past few days has
found them potting straw under the
plants to support the fruit in case
of a cold wave with frost. Protect the
tender bade which will soon put forth
by covering them up. The plants look
unsually healthy this season and as
there has not bfeen enough warm weat-
er;to induce pnnature blossoming, . a
heavy crop of fine fruit is expected.
There is a big increase in acreage
around here but as the first season after
planting the yield is small. Next rea
son will be the time when the full
extent of the acreage increase

season farmers say make their heaviest
and said that
as there was a
company here that the day would never
be allowed to pass unnoticed and that
the people of Florence would join them
eqch year with greater interest in the
celebration.
Rev Melton Clark opened with prayer
. and closed ivith a benediction in his
prayer he offered thanks for such men
as Calhoun and prayed for grace and
strength to emulate their examples.
Rev Harold Thomas the Chaplain of
the company was the speaker. His ad
dress was listened to with the greatest
attention and interest and was frequent
ly punctuated by applause.
After the address the hoys repaired io

ent the eloq ent address delivered last ” i

Upon the roll of the statements of the
old South who defended her civilization
and her institutions no name stands out
with greater prominence than that of
John Cald well Calhoun. This name of
magic power is indelibly endgraved
upon the hearts of the men of the old
South, because in Uie life and works of
Calhoun are reflected the lofty virtues
and sentiments of our fathers,'and be
cause in his resolute nature we see
embodied that devotion to principal and
that deep ‘love'bf truth, of honor, and
of independence characteristic of the
men of the 'dd South. Much that was
highest and best in the past found ex
pression in this heroic patriot, this un
compromising states—this incorruptible
man. Perfectly idenitfied with the
thought and sentiment of his people
and ever seeking their highest good no
wonder they honored him, as few pol
itical leaders have been honoredrs their
guide and/champion. In an epoch of
■distinguished men, unsurpassed in the
history of the country, he stands in
acuteness of intellect and greatness of
soul for the “glory that was Greece and
the grandare that was Rome.”
Thongh^many of the ^doctrines which
Calhoun advoacated with all the energy
of his native genius have been forgotten
and many of the principles against
which he hurled the thunder bolts of his
logic have since been incorporated into
the constitution yet the future may
ultimately vindicate the correctness of
his political philosophy and above all.
will show the wisdom in making this in
name andjin reality a “Republic of Re
publics,” which was the sum and sub
stance of his political creed. However
we do not have to look for the fruit of
Calhoun’s genius in time to come. It
bore abundantly during his public life
extending over a period )f forty j'ears.
Calhoun was born in the back woods
of upper Soutn Carolina amid the ex
citing scenes of the last years of the rev
olntion. His pious parents; a fe w liberty
loving countrymen the field and the for
est were the preceptors of his early
ycuth. He was prepared for college
under the instruction of his kinsman
tne well-known teacher Dr Waddell.
He entered Yale at the age of twenty
' and graduated with distinction two
years later, in 1804' His rise to prom
inence was rapid; ; n 1807 he was admit
ted to the bar; in 1808 he was elected
to the state legislature; in 1810 betook
his seat in Congress.
When the young Carolinian of
twenty five entered the councils of his
country it looked as if the political
world was to be 'overturned. All Eu
rope was in arms. War had been rag
ing for twenty years. It was at the
time when Napolean had reached the
zenith of his power. In thi^ country
two hostile parties devided the land one
looking upon.Napolean as the champion
of lioerty, the other as the incarration
of despotism. Our flag was respected
by neither of the contending Powers,
France or England. They seized our
vessels and imprisoned our seamen.
This spoilatich of our commence did
dertake a tasx that four secretareis had
given up in despair. With his clear
preception and his keen powers of an
alysis he soon brought order out of the
chaos. During his seven years of his
office he completely revolutionized the
system of instruction at" West Point;
did much to improve the condition of
the Indians; and finally left tae Impres
sion of his genions on all branches »f
the Military System of our country.
He was next called to the office >f
Vice Presi lent being the choice of all
parties. He presided over the Senate
with such dignity and impartiality that
he was said that it was worth a visit to
Washington to see him in his chair
where he sat enthroned like some mas
ter spirit. wielding the sceptre of his
mental powers.
The attention of th® people of the
South was at this time attracted by the
alarming growth of rhe tariff system.
They saw clearly that monstrous scheme
of mscreasng beyond its n“eds the rev-
1 ennes of the Government benefited the
North and We^t at the expense of the
South The various manufacturers of
the country have always sought to make
the people purport their so-called in
fant industrious, in 1828 a tariff bill
was proposed in Congress which at
length fully aroused the already over
burdened Sauth and South Carolina re
quested Calltoun to come down upon
the floor of the Senate and the battle
for the rights of this section.
Then came the great crisis in his life.
He was always independent of party
afiliation But at this time-he was
identified with the party in power and
ws»s looked upon as President Jackson's
successor. Must he now do the bidding
of his state and oppose tariff legislation
requiring him to forsake his friends de
abandon all hope of
the presidency? In that decisive hour
the glorious‘Carolinian d espied potver
and popularity and took his stand for
truth and justice. In all the annals of
the world their .is no greater example of
unrewarded self sacrifice for the sake
of principle.
In the Senate Calhoun fell in with a
I feeble and disunited minority but he
made a grand fight against the bill
[ which was passed by a majority of only
i one. When two years later a more in-
: iquitous tariff bill was passed by Con
! gress,Calhoun alvised his state to resort
; to nulification not because anyone then
doubted the right tof Secession, but oe-
1 cause Ca ! honn loved the Union and de
sired to -ee it preserved by the exercise
of this v-aoeable remedy, as he deemed
it a rem*- ly which the Constitution n
self supplied. Accordingly a Conven
tion met in South Carolina and declared
the tariffjbills null and voi 1 and of no
effect in that state. The president de
nounced the action as treason, and Con
gress passed the bill of coersion. In
this hour of need South Carolina was
deserted by sister States of the South;
derision and reproach were heaped up
on his fair name. But. she was not to be
frightened into submission; her sons
flew to arms, resolved to confront the
entire Union and to perish rather than
abandon the stand their; state bad
taken for constitutional liberty.
Fighting alone against public opinion
and a'frowning world tbe little state
gained a signal victory. In the Senate
Chamber majestic ^reason and burning
eloquence clashed arms in a memorable
contest of truth and the arreat Webater
was vanquished. Nothing could with
stand the irresistable force of Calhouns
compact logic Clays compromise pre
vailed and by it the obnoxious tariff
bills which South Carolina had nullified
were reduced to a gradual decay.
At the expiration of his senatorial
term of office Calhoun voluntarily re
tired from public life. But he hail en
joyed the repose of home for only a
short time when Tyler invited him to a
place in his cabinet as Secretary of
State. He accepted and performed .the
duties of this office with bis usual abil
ity
At the begining of the next adminis
tration under Polk the coutry was about
ro be plunged into another war with
England on; account of the; Oregon
Treaty All looked to Calhoun as the
one statesman capable of settling the
difficulty. At this juncture his sue
cessor in the Senate. Judge Huger mag
nanimously resigned, giving way to one
who seemed to be equal to any emergen
cy. Returning to his old place in the
Senate Calhoun took his stand against
the war for ihe possssiou of Oregon
which was advocated by the administra
tion. He won public op.nion to his side
and saved the country from a war with
the most powerful nation of the world
When“Missouri applied for admission
into the Union the historic fight on the
slave question began in earnest. The
abolition fever raged at the North.
Some of the abolitionists were led on by
wild fanaticism pothers were enraged
b»cnse they had been baffled in their at
a bale from the highest figures
border. Surel ythe spint of Christianity j prevailed in all speculating cen
ter? particularly in New Orleans.
The situation is cast up as follows
‘ to-day:
New York, March 18.—Daniel
J. Sully, the cotton operator, who
kas for fifteen months been the
biggest figure in the cotton mar
kets of the world, and who has
“bulled ,, cotton from 7 cents a
pound to over 17 cents, announced
his inability to ipake gooi his en
gagements on the New York Cot
ton Exchange to-day. Within , a
few moments, cotton fell nearlv
§13
off the day.
Scenes such as followed the an
nouncement of the failure, it has
been .the privilege of few brokers
to witness before. Traders in the
street have witnessed stock panics
in previous years; corners have
been broken, and many crashes
bare yeen recorded, but none has
been accompanied by such frenzy
and coilfusiou.
While there has been no premo
nition of the impending crash, no
morning tv the season had witnes
sed a more demoralized market.
In less than ten minutes after the
opening, halt a cent had been
taken off the price of cotton.
Prices Vent up and down, 10, 20
and 30 points within two and
three minutes. May opened at 15.-
25 and sold down to 14.75 in less
than 15 minutes, while July
opened at 15.22, went down to
14.86.
Toward the end of the first half
hour, earlv sellers started to cover
» «/
and there was a rapid advance.
i* opposed to human bondage, out did
its author ever demand an immediate
emaniepation of the countless slaves in
the Roman Empire? The method of
the wisest of moralist for abolishing an
abnormal instiution ns not good
enough for the tender-liearid Abolition
ists who were intent on currying out,
regardless of condition, bis visionary
ideas of freedom and his false notions
regarding the equality of men. The
responsibility for the teririble war that
soon followed and the serious problem
that confronts ns today must rest in the
main upon those wild misguided fanat
ics the Abolitionists.
At the opening of tbe Congress of 1850
the intrepid champion of Southern in-
terst was a dying man but he.deter
mined to go to’ Washington and strike
on more blow for the cause he held
dearer than life. He composed an elab
orate speech which was read in Con
gress by Senator Mason of Virginia. In
it he reviewed the whole history of the
pending contest and predietd that If the
gpvernemt continued to interfere with
the sovereignty of th% states the South
would secede..He intended to offer some
amendments to the Constitution in or
der to save the Union but this he was
never privileged to do. Twenty seven
days after his last great effort he was
removed from the political arena by tbe
hand of providence. ‘‘.God's finger
touched him and he slept.” His power
ful will had kept his spirit lingering in
itsfrail tenement but the struggle could
not longer be maintained. On the 17th
of March he died at Weshington near
the scenes of Ins forensic gloiy and his
politicl a achievements.
Un usual honors were accorded him at
his death. Prominent Senators and
Representatives vied with each other
in terms of eulogy over the fallen states
man. The pulpit declared that a prince
in intelct and in oratory had fallen.
At home tie Carolina Tribute to Cal
houn was the voice and pen of praise
and the wail of soi row.
The estimate of Calhoun’scharatcr by
contempories will stand tbe test of time
They said of him as was said of another
“ His virtues were enough to redeem
his generation, his genius sufficient to
enrich an empire.” Since then no
one has ever dared to question the
spotless purity of his life.

THAT SHAD QUESTION.
An ^Interesting Statement from Mr
Walton in the Matter in Dispute.
To the Editor of the Florence Daily
Times.—Please allow me space in your
valuable paper to reply to “The Gause
Shad Law” in your papers of 16th and
17th inst the statement in the paper of
the 16th inst its true The one headed
Gorgetown Shad of the 17th;insb is erro
neons. Mr Morgaif came to me before
leaving for tbe city of Georgetown S.
C. on March 12th last, stating that he
was going to Georgetown to embark in
the wholesale fish business and that he
des red to supply me with shad. I told
him I would be glad to purchase from
him and to send me a price list, up to
this writing I have .not heard anything
from.him nor from any other fish deal
er in Georgetown S. C. although I have,
written to several dealers there. I have
no doubt that the Parlor Market • has
been supplied by ’Mr C. Morgan from
Georgetown but am certain ’ that no
shad have been shipped from George
town to the up country and the South
ern Express Co, will bear r y s atemen;
ouit as being correct.
. Mr Morgan’s statement that if anv
dealer has been refused a shipment from
that place must be from some other
cause than the opposition to the Gause
law, ea^p a reflection upon every Lon
gest fish dealer in the s.ate and in jus
tioe to myself and others I wish to sa -
that the wholesale fish dealers in Geo
.rgetowii never refused to ship shad thev

In my business when ever I found it.
advantageous to do so, I have placet
as high as one Hundred * dollars and*
more with Fish Dealers which was
placed on their Ledger to my Credit and

mention this to vacate any false and
misleading thonghts of ’ the public
which may be construed upon the re

accor n t for the excitement. It
seemed merely a renewal of bear
operations and the catching of
farther stop orders.
The losses by Sally’s failure, in
case he cannot settle,it was stated
to-day, was divided up among
uearly all the brokers on 'the ex
change. One estimate was that
Sally’s owings after a settlement
under the rule of the exchange
would not exceed half a million
dollars. What Sully has person
ally lost, or what his backers
have lost in market operations is
not included in this figure.
What Sully will owe will he
found by deducting the average
quotations, of cotton to-day from
the figure to which his accounts
There wa. nothing in .he nows to
never sounded the depts of Calhoun
has undertaken to assail his public
•character and to tre greatness of his
genius. True the old cry of “inconsis
tency” “false premises’’ and metaphys
ical inpracticability ’’has been recently
raised against him. Inconsistency?
Was it in' onsistency when the country
was ou the verge of ruin to advocate as
war measure a protective tariff? False
premises? Was it a false premice to
reason from the constitution and the
unquestionable facts of history? No
doubt Calhoun's theorv is not wholy
practicable because it presupposes more
intelligence and virtue than now ob
tain in the masses; because it is fitted
we may say only for a community of
Calhouns. Still his testiment to his
country is most valuable as embodying
like the politics of Aristotle great gov
ernmental principles and lofty political
ideals. Especially will his “Disquisi
tion’’ stand as a monument to his phil
osophical statesmanship a memorial
more enduring than stone.
But any attmpt to nelittle the great
ness of Calhoun is best met by the rec
orded testimony of his associates in Con
gress and especially by the glowing
tribute of his great compeers. Clay said
that “he possessed a lofty gen: ns.” Web
ster affirmed that he was “a man of un
doubted genius and commanding tal-
jent.’’ Read, too the magnificent ora
tion of Hamomnd Calhoun's life and
services and the eulogy of the great
jurist Lamar on the occasion of tne un
veiling of the monu.uent to Carolina’s
great statesman. Weigh these deliver-
ences from giants of inrelleeet Com
pare them with 1 he superficial estimates
of Yon Holst and bis followers and no
admirer of Calhoun need have any aj)-
prehensions as to his prominent place
in history.
True to the Union, true to country.
Calhoun was above all true to South
Carolina. The State that reared him,
that supported him that loved him, that
mourned him, will always find among
his sons some loyal one to lise up and
do honor to his memory and protect his
fair name against the assaults of sect
ional prejudice and the calumnies and
political animosity.
Honor, undying honor, to the match

Fame.”

Mr Walton is mistaken in assuiniig
that the expression “some otherreason
the local in the Times means anything
more than it said. It may be true
that some dealers have not received
shipments of shad from' Georgetown
and others have that letters may hav t
been lost that dealers had all the cus
tomers that they could supply in son e
cases. It may be a thousand otht,
things and we assure Mr Walton thin
norefiection was intended to have been
cast on anv one who had not recsived

might have governed their cases. If n
is trne as he charges the people ougb'
to know it, if it is true as MrMorgjn’

There was no other anounce-

there need be no fear of trouble.
In stock exchange circles, the
failure of Sully was at first taken
as a sure sign of the collapse of the
cotton boom. Later there was
some apprehension lest the failure
might bring down a string of bank

Mr. Sully’s suspension was an
