when the aun’a light began to
Increase again and to promise
the return of plenty, baa al-
a day of Joy and present
giving. Among all people* the prleata
of old got the Mon’a share. The old
Teutons gave the spoils of war and of
the chase. Roman knights yielded their
most beautiful slates. The Christian
era somewhat modified the custom, but
still It was a day of robbery by priests
and monarch*, and New Year’s day
rather than Christmas was the day for
the exchange of gifts. The old Hour-

MkJ. Wm. H Manldln, the State Sena
tor from Hampton County, died on tbe
20th Inst., after an illnsaa extending
over a month, resulting from a compli
cation of typhoid fever and kidney
trouble.
Major Mauldin was one of the most
energetic business men in the State of
kmth Carolina, He was the sole owner
of the Hamptlon and Branchvllle rail
road and had large interesta In the sec-
< ;lon of the State in which he resided.
He waa the father of the town of Hamp
ton, having done the work necessary to
securing the location of the court house
at that point when the county of Hamp
ton was formed. He was a gallant Con-
fede ate soldier known among his com
rades as the “ fighting quartermaster ”
pf the famous Hampton Legion. He
was a strong man, an earnest man, and
was generally beloved by those who
r him. Duri' g his illness many in
qulries bare poured into his home from
people all over this and other State*..
* SKETCH OF HIS LIFE
William H. Manldln was 63 years of
age He was born in Williamston, An
derson county, and came of the well
JTnown Ma-lain family. He was a son
of the Raw B. Frank Mauldin. His
mother Is'still living and now resides
in Anderson. He had two brothers, one
of whom died a yeai ago. The other,
Mr. B. F. Manldln, is now the cashier of
Prof. C. M. Conner, of Clemsou
College, has contributed the following
article to the Southern Farm Magazine:
Stock-raising in South Carolina will
increase rapidly within the next few
years. Formerly the want of a market
close at hand has had some effect on
the profits to be derived therefrom,
especially in tho line of dairy farming.
But the cotton factories, which are
rapidly increasing in the South, furnish
employment to a large number ol men
wbo by force of circumstances must
buy their milk and butter, thus open-
lug a market for dairy products a& well
as beef.
Until the last few years there has
been a prejudice against Southern
cattle in the Northern markets^ but
this is being overcome by the introduc
tion of better bjood. The stockmen of
the West have made a great deal o>
money by raising cattle and shipping
to ihe corn belt to be finished for the
market. South Carolina may soon be
able to^compete with the West in this
line. It is true that we have no broad
prairies covered with . natural grasses
for grazing, but the hills of the up
country may be made to produce ex
cellent pasture the year round.
The whole State is well watered.

the mountains toward the coast furnL-h
