Floyd from opening a dispensary at Darlington on tbc ground that the set authorizing the opening of dispensaries is unconstitutional The attorney general went before Associate Justice 1'ope, of the State Supreme Cotut, sitting at th ambers, and obtained an order Suspending Judge Hudson's injunc tion until t)i? esse could be heard before the Supreme Court on ap peal, Monday citizens of Darling ton went before Judge Hudson at chambers in BennetUville, with af f\ iavi.ts shoeing that Floyd had Violated Judge Hudson's previous cider of injunction anu on motion of their attorneys. ^Settles & Net tles, obtained an order requiring' Floyd and the county board of con tr< 1 of Darlington lo show cause, before Judge Hudson on Friday j morning of this week why they should r.nt be punished for their al leged misconduct and their bodies be attaciied for contempt of court. It loois as though there will be a conflict between a circuit Judge and a Supreme Court Justice. Matters are getting very lively over the dispensary law. Judge Norton, in a case before hira to restrain the Greenville dis pensary from continuing business, declined to do so. He sustains the validity of the dispensary law, ex-! cepl three clauses. First, the! clause which conllscates property other than that used in the conduct of tfce nuisance complained of; second, the clause regarding the im portation of liquor into the State; and third, the clause requiring the defendant to answer.interrogatoi ics- j He also decided that the occu- 1 pation of an applicant for dispens er at the time of application, and Hot before, could be questioned, and that a circuit judge had no j-igLt to review the action of the board of control as to the number of signatures to an application or J the character of the applicant or Signer. A Money Making Machine. A small machine is now manufactured in which mny be placed a numoer of fiew, crisp Bills., and then }>y rolling a blank piece of paper into the-machine the money bills roll out at the same time having every appearance of having just be#m printed by the machine. The whole^ tiling is so cleverly done as to deceive almost every one. " ? A number of unpleasant experiences have been told of persons who have been ! luaking money with these machine.-*. The joke i~.so deceiving tluit it is seldom the party owning one ever gets off with out a counter joke b< ii g played on him. It is said that a drummer in Darling ton was recently exhibiting one of these machines in the streets of that progress ire eity, taming out bright, new, crisp ten-dollar Mlis and offering big induce ments to the admiring, wondering, gap ing crowd that had gathered round Ev erybody got fooled. Finally a police man arrested him and carried him to the L'uafdhonso. The drnmm:?r protested in vain that it, was all a joke. The police man said there was no joke about it, lor too many people had seen him printing the bills, r One of the bills Tvas taken to the cash ier of a local bank, who claimed to be an expert in detecting counterfeit mon ey. This expert, after critically examin ing the bill, wisely (?) explained that ?0 ?.he common eye the bill was genuine, but his critical and experienced eye easily detected thai the bill was counter feit.. The drummer was in a close place, and about to be commuted to jail for coun terfeiting hank bills. He tried to ex * plain that the bills were put into the machine beforehand and that he was simply fooling the people, but the police man said he himself had seen h*m print ing the bills, and he wasn't fooled then nor would he be fooled now. Finally the drummer had to fcoar his machine all to pieces and show him that there was nothing in it to print, before the policeman would let him go. A Final Triumph. An editor died and slowly wer.ded his way downward. The de*i! saw him and! said : "For manv years thou hast borne . the blame for many errors the printers \ made in thy paper. Thy paper has J tailed.

[From our rejmlar correspondent] Washjnctos. July 25 1893. The old story, started in the first month of the administration iibout there being a (Jisogreemect between President Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle as to the finan cial policy of the administration has been revived and fiven a new dress, it being stated now that the President - intends \o use the vacancy in' the Supreme Court to iget rid of Secretary Carlisle. Your j correspondent can state on t lie authority of one who knows there of he speaks that there isn't the slighest friction between the Presi-. dent and Secretary Carlslie; i the contrary, their relations h^ye constantly grown closer as each 'come to fully understand the mind 1 and disposition oi the other, both having found unexpected traits in I the other to admire. Secretary Carlsle rightly declines to dignify the story at this time. Exciting | political news is veiy scarce-? the calm before the btorm is that S?c. Carlisle's appoint merit to the vacancy in the Supreme Court was possible, if not very probable, and, in ease lie should be appointed he ! ( the writer) could claim credit for ! having had exclusive ad\*ance c?fficial information, and if he wp.sn't appointed the story would ! soon be forgotten any way. Speaking of that Supreme Court! vacancy, I have- just bad a talk with a gentleman who is as close to President Cleveland personally j as any man in the world on the rumor which has at various times connected the name oi three mem-] bers of the cabinet with the va cancy. He said: "It is very easy for rae to tell you why I fceUjertain that Mr Cleveland will nofc-^reak into his cabinet to fill that vacacy, although Secretaries Gresham and Carlisle and Attorney General Oincy, f?ll c f whom have been men tioned, would either of them make a model Justice on the bench of the gr< atest < ourt in the world. But that doesn't enter into the case at all. It should be remembered that Mr Cleveland spent about four months in selecting the members of his cabinet, and that each member was selected with special referent e to the work that Mr Cleveland ex pect that parlicular department over which he presides to do to-, wards ranking his administration a i success. Now then, is it a reas onable supposition, that before the new machinery has fairly got to going Mr Cleveland would even entertain the idea of changing any one of the men he had so carefully selected to another position, bow ever much honor theie might be, for the individual in the charge? I think not. I should much sooner expect to see the Senate invaded than the cabinet, to fill this vacan cy." Commissioner Lochren isn't wor rying over the fuss that is being made b? cause of the suspension of the pension of Justice Chailes I). Long, of the Supreme Court of Michigan. He says he has no .apology to make and that Judge fjong in making application for his pension alleged that he was totally helpless, and that he is now draw ing a salary of S7.000 a year, which shows that he is ? i long ways f:\ m being totally helpless, and tiiM the case is a proper one for investigation. Secretary Carlisle nailed another misstatement when he said that neither himself nor official of the Treasury Department was engaged in the preparation of a tat iff bill and that neither he nor the Presi dent had ever contemplated such a thing. Treasury officials are pre paring informatiou ou the subject which will be placed at the disposal of tae House committee en Ways and Means when it begins work on the tariff bill. An attempt was made to make it appear that the acting Director of the Mint had done something extraordinary iu refusing to pay more than the London price for silver bn'lion and there wps for a while a lot of wild talk about bring ing "the usurpation of authority" to the attention of Congress, in dulged in mostly bv Republicans! who didn't care a rap about silver! but thought they saw in the in-; cident an opportunity to embarrass | the administration. Tr.2 talk was| stopped as suddenly as it began, fori a little ivestigition brought out the fact that in 1S73, when John Sher man was Secretary of the Treasuevj and under the Bland act, than just gone into effect,* was compelled to bu) $2,000,000 worth oi' silver a! mouth, for coinage, he not only re fused to pay more than the London price, but when American holders of silver refused to sell at that price he actually bouqht more than ?5,000,000 worth of silver in Lon don and had it shipped to Philadelphia mint. tue List ofUn:Iairicd Letters.

Much oKt'he interest that invests it, comes fh>m ihe misfortune of war. ? 3 ' . Transient heaUh^eekers, from the cold Xorth, enjoy the breath of the pines , the absorbing quality of the soil, and the agreeable society of the old fami lies, \ jsitors arriving here, are inter ested in) investigating its revolutionary history. These incidents are found in "Waihir-toD and his Generals" bv HeacJey ; in the "History of the Revolu tionary War'5 by Lassirg, and in trans mitted history through old people. Hobkirk IIi!l is arid.e of land over looking the town 0f 3,000 people. Here General Xathabiel (ireen, ' second only to Washington, held his position until his quarters were beaten up bv Loid Rawdon. Here Cornwallis pitched his tents, and near here the hated TaH ton quartered his cavalry in a Scotch Presbyterian cl.urch and from here cried, "havoc and let Joose the dogs o; ^ ar. Ai.d it was through and over this ridge. that Sherman aud his well fed troops assumed the war\ measure, of de pri\ ing the* inhabitants oi the mo.ms (>f Continuing the war. It is useless and | worse than useless toftaik of the necessity of war. The only' remedy is peaee and arbitration. All you who deprecate w ir, m<y join the Boston Peace Society ; and cry z gainst all and everything that is conducive to war. We, who advo cate the principles of this societv, com mence with the boy and his (by gun and drum ; object to military schools, to brass buttwns, and uniform dress ? to practicing with a rifle, for this means preparation to commit muider. The Peace Society we may hope will be so powerful in its influence as to prevent another war in this country. But to return to Hobkirk Ilill-or the long' ridge it is here that the most, agreeabb homes are situated. Among these is the spacious mansion AVm E. Johnson, situated amidst queerly clipped trees and scrubs ar.d reminding one of the paintings of siniiKar places in the time ot Louis XI V. in the Tear of this house is a terraced garden. At its foot is a gushing spring. Here Gen. Green and his forces wore comfortably camped en joying the needed rest- On the 25th da\ of April, 1781, an attack was made on the Americans, but it was met as vigorously. Gen. Greene was about en joying a dish of pork and beans? laid out on a fallen tree and served on two chips? but he lost his pork to save hi* bacon. The fight was a severe one, with brt doubtful result. The surprise and the battle were brought about in this way. A deserter liad gone to the British camp but two miles away, and revealed to Rawdon the position and needs of the Americans. Early the next morning the young and I energetic commander mounted his cav-l airy without blast of trumpet and with quiet orders. Avoiding the fields he marched by a circuitous route, and through the woods. The discharge of ?<ins by the sentries -the smldenVom motior. in camp, only quickened, but did not disconcert Gen. Greene. It was a bloody day, and the only gain to the Americans was the knowledge that the enemy gained that they had a courageous tot to 'leal w*th. Lord Rawdon returned to his camp, near the house kn.iwn ;;s the OornwalJis headquarters. This large building was constructed with bricks brought from --nglani. The house disappeared during the late war. ^ In !7S0 an incident had occured at tuis house which would not have been p me.ubered but for a monument that re cords it. A young and pretty Scotch gui had accompanied Lard Corwallis' command to this couatrw She had loi lowed and shared the fortunes of the' camp, but at this house she had tnven ?P i" de.?P;,ir. All efforts of the women mi the neighborhood were unavailing 's!ie ftom ho;ne and coun try. But she must have had somo one to feel for her and respcet her grave. 1 1 can imagine now a procession slowly moving from tiie house; across the Pelvis to a small graveyard? a God's acre occupied bv the bones ?,t some ear ly Scotch settlers. At t/.o head rode Lord Comwailis and Pawdon and the wicked Tarlton. Then fallowed the body of the poor girl laid upon a stretch *r ! and that berne ?n maskers, in the hand-; of the soldiers ; others followed, al! with military precision. Slowly and quietlv they approaciied the huriafground. The silence was broken by a single mocking bird, who sang a requium in the bare limbs the bud and bloss-m as lifeless as the poor girl.
