The News and Courier aaya that “All the opposition to Cleveland so far de veloped in the Democratic party can be traced directly to the pergonal hostility of those who could not run the Admin istration.” And wc would remark that those nuyrt vociferoua for Mr. Cleveland's rtmoml- nation are those w ho did. “run the Ad ministration” during hit term—to de-i feat on Its appeal to the country. Hav ing lost the reins from their ineffective hands they should be content to let others try to regain them. No*possible management can he worse than tlujtr utter mismanagement has been. ‘ In * an address before the hammer meeting of tip State .Agricultural and echaateaf t^octet^recemfy held artis^ thrae. JS'jpeX# .bchiaU AHPfts angeburg lion. Samuel Dibble argued that the increased tariff duties of the hlcivinley Act arc keeping foreign pro ducts from our poftnfwml cites as proof the fact that the duty for July 1891 was |8 f 000,000 less than for July 1800. It seems to us and we think it can be easily proven that Mr. Dibble took posi tion like an advocate and' then hunted for argument to support and Tortiiy it, instead of judicially hearing and ran sacking the argument ’before reaching his conclusion. . We do not doubt but that his home merchants at Orangeburg oan give him better explanation of the cause* of the decrease hi tariff receipts than he has been able to collect from the three volumes of sj»cer!isa made in the Con-. grcsM during the debate ou the Mills Bill. Wc venture to vay that the merchant* at Orangeburg did dprlug lust July percentage of trade a* compared with their transactions of July }*M more re duced in volume than the percentage by m Utah the budne-s of the l^ited hute* fell short in July 01.of the proportion* •f July W>. The decrease inctutotuvdueshas l*een caused by the closer economy practised In all American homes—an economy forced by the scarcity of money, the preseooe of hard time* and the appro hensieB of greater financial stringency The drainage of $7!>,UU0,i*JOnr American gold to Kuro|»eeu coffers, the hoarding of capital by money king*, the certainty •f a ester prices for cotton and the de sire to discharge obligations approach ing maturity have luduenced our pm* |1«* to draa togethar their purse strings It la a condition and not a theory that confronts the country.

Alfred Alilrich,of Barnwell, tell* a good war anecdote about tteti, P. M. B. Young and some of his staff In one of the battles in Virginia Gen. Young was thought by Maj. Church, his adju tant general, and by Capt. Hubert Aid- rich, who was assistant adjutant gen eral, to be mortally wounded. Major Church, believing that Geu. Y’oung was going to die, asked Capt. Aldrich to pray for him, hut the captain replied that he did not know how', and he In turn requested the major to pray, but the latter acknowledged that he too did not know how to pray. Mr. Sandy Dunken.of Barnwell, was the orderly of staff. Maj. Church asked him drat and then commanded him to pray. Kan dy gave the same excuse as hi* supe rior officers, hut he had to obey orders, like J im Blurisoe— “He was a careless man in his talk, And an awkward hand in a row; But h? never lied and he never flanked, I reckon he never knowed how." Sandy took off his cap and knelt by the stretcher on which the wounded man lay. He began to pray and to talk to the Lord in quite a favorable manner, about as follows: Y'ou know’, Lord, the general is badly wounded, and not liable to recover; have mercy on him, for you know he has been a wicked man. Just then the general interrupted, and said : Sandy, what is the use to re wind the Lord of thaty Why don’t you gay something good iu my favor y Sandy being interrupted, was discon certed and ceased praying, remarking that he couldn’t pray much nohow, and if he couldn’t dolt in hia own way, he wouldn’t do it at all. The general said that such prayers, reminding the Lord of his short com ings, were not calculated to do a man in fais nx much good, and did not urge Handy to proceed any further.—Augus ta Chronicle, W.

The jury failed to agree upon their first trial. Upon their second trial they were convicted. I^a*t Friday was fixed for their execution They were carried to the scaffold and the rope* put around their neck*. Just as the Bheriff was about to spring the trap Mr. D. H.

The Weather Bureau’s weekly report issued on Saturday says of the cotton etop in the different Southern States: North Carolina—Cotton larg» and thrifty, fruiting better, though some shedding. South Carolina—Early cotton in fine condition in Eastern and Southern coun ties, but inferior in Northern and West ern aection*. Late cotton ha* little fruit. No damage reported from rust or caterpillars. Alabama—Cotton opening rapidly in South and Middle Alabama and is about the average, falling off from last year. Mississippi—Conditions generally fa vorable, but cotton is late and needs warmer weather; ills shedding some what. In the Southern portion cotton is opening. Few boll worms reported. Louisiana—^otton in excellent condi tion, opening in some sections; there is but little shedding. Arkansas—Cotton shows slight im provement, opening in Southwestern counties. . Texas—Cotton picking becoming general, the crop promises a good yield. Some worms reported but no particular damage. Tennessee—Cotton fruiting w’ell; the warm, dry weather beneficial. The Law a* to Peddlers. From the Sunday State we quote the following section from the reply of the .Comptroller General’s ottice to the ques tion, “Will you please write me what sewing machines taxes are in your State v ” i “Yours of the 11th instant to State treasurer has Iwen referred to this office, and In reply thereto I will say that sec tion 1339 general statutes, as amended .in"!887, requires a license fee of $100 to be paid to clerk of court in each county,’ by hawkers and peddlers. This applies to hawkers and peddlers of all goods, ware* and merchandise except venders of fruit, maps, newspapers, magazines, books, vegetables, tobacco, provisions of any kind or agricultural products, or ■ales by sample by persons traveling for established commercial houses, or to sales of staple articles manufactured in this Ntate. There teems to be an evasion of taxes on sewing machine*, and it is intimated that the comptroller may soon Itcgin work on them. Hence the importance of the above quotations. Mrs. James K.
