Tbe Oblumbfa State from week to
week publishes the names of the sol
diers In the Revolutionary war, as
they have been culled from the quan
tity of loose documents discovered by
Secretary of State Gantt * in . the State
house. The State says when the
worft is finally done, it is hoped,
“that a comparatively complete list
of the men who fouaht under Marlon,
Pickens and Sumter during the clos
ing years of tiie Revolution—that pe
riod which marked the bitterest frat
ricidal struggle that has taken place
In an American State, and of brilliant
and memorable achievements of soot
of South Carolina—will be preserved.
‘ Prior to the fall of Charleston, May
30, 1780, our State was removed from
the •‘qnj.re of the conflict, and but for
the brilliant victory of Port Moultrie
and a few desultory and almost blood
less invasions, engaged In little of the
fighting: but during theclosing years,
wheti the-e men. whose names we are
publishing were fighting, South Caro
lina bore the brunt of Uie conflict,
and these men drove the British from
pur State and Cornwallis’ army to
Washington and Yorktown. But for
thel-deeds, and without their help,
Washington would have been like
Dav s and Lee In latter years, tbe
lead ;r of an unsuccessful revolution,
and South Carolina probably a British
province." We shall publish these

be possible, it is nevertheless entirely
feasible to produce cotton^at a margin
of profit that will compare favorably
with that Involved In the production
of moat of tbe staple crops of the
United States by following what have
become known generally a^ the cultur
al methods, involving changes and
modifications of the system of cotton
raising made necessary by the weevil.
They were originally suggested by a
careful study of tbe life history and
habits of tbe pest, and naturally any
Improvements that may be made will
result in tbe continuation .of that
study. They have now been tested
successfully on a large scale by the
division of entomology, as well as by
many planters, during two very un
favorable seasons. Of greatest advant
age is the reduction of* the numbers
of the weevils by ihe destruction of
tbe plants in the fall. Tbe advantage
thus gained is followed’up by bending
every effort toward procuring an early
crop the following season.”
The changes in the cotton raising
system urgently recommended are:
Early planting with seed from as far
North as possible; thorough cultiva
tion of the fields, which influences the
constant growth and cooseqiient early
maturing of the crop; planting tbe
rf>wa 48 fir fp* 1 * ** an( ]
thorough thinlng~out of planta in 3&e
rows: destruction by plowing up Wind-
rowlng and burning of all the cotton
showing the farmers bow to grew
something else besides cotton. Thi
department of agriculture is-laying
Its plans to meet the spread of the
cotton boll weevil. Congress ’ has
appropriated 3250,000 for this pur
pose and this sum is to be used not
only in Texas, but In the various cot
ton growing states.
Tbe department not only proposes
to deal with the weevil In Texas, but
it proposes to teach tbe farmers to
grow sometbiog cdse than cotton, if
It should appear «o the department
that It Is not able to control tbe pest.
To this end diversification farms will
be eastabllshed In each of tbe South
ern sutes. Two of these farms are]
to be in South Carolina, and ^de
partment has about decided to place
them Ju the districts of Representa
tives Lever and Johnson.
These are not experimental farms
in any sense of tbe word, but are to
be model farms, under tbe supervision
of the experts of the agricultural de
partment. The plan is for the depart-
men to furnish all the seed, one-half
the fertilizer and the expert super
vision, while the individual is to fur
nish tbe land and the labor.
The correspondent of the News and
Courier says of this idea that Mr.
Lever has recommended to the de
partment as a suitable man to carry
on this Idea Mr. F. H. Hyatt, who is
a most progressive citizen, living near
Columbia, an^ within easy touch with
the entire state. It is proposed not
only to grow the various crops, but
during the summer time to invite the
farmers of the state to visit the farms
In order that they may see their prac
tical workings. J
It Is proposed not to plant cotton,
but only to supplement It. Cotton a
exhaustive to the soil, and this diver
slfication Idea is intended to demon
strate to this farmers that it is better
to grow crops In rotation, in order not
only to maintain the fertilizer In the
soil, but actually increase it. Great
practical good is expected by the de
partment from this plan.
stalks in the fields as soon as the
weevils become so numerous that prac
tically all the fruit is being punctur
ed, thus destroying the very great
proportion of weevils developing late
In the autumn; and extensive use of

Rev. S. B. Sawyer the Baptist Courier
says “for many years he was one of
the most popular preachers in that
large section of the State covered by
Orangeburg, Lexington, Aiken, Salu
da and hdgefield counties, and at dif
ferent times he was pastor of a num
ber of churches in these counties. He
was a preacher of marked ability, and
in what was considered bis best days,
great crowds attended his ministry.
He never had the advantages of tbe
Seminary, and of colleges, but he
built well on the good foundation be
received in the “old field” schools.
He read good-books and was a close
student-oXthe Bible.- He, was well
In tbe fundamental New
t doctrines, and in bis
preaching he always dwelt' on these
great themes and presented them
with unusual force and clearness. He
was a mrfn of pleasant manners, gen
tle, sweet-spirited, generous, and pru
dent in speech and conduct. He
loved bis brethren, and esteemed
highly his brother ministers, holding
them in honor, and was always cour
teous and kind: In the days of his
strength he was so much sought after
by his brother pastors for revival ser
vices, and his gifts in this respect.were
conspicuous, and his caution In re
ceiving candidates for baptism was
well known and universally commend
ed. He believed in a high standard
of Christian life and wisely contended
for good discipline in the churches.
For a number of years he was a mode
rator of the Orangeburg Association
meetlngs. -Ofr recent years his healtfa
was not good, but as long as he a . was Democrat in politics,
able he preached. Only a few days
ago he quietly passed away, full of
years, and years full of labors for tbe
Master. He was preceded to the bet

wife who dted a day or two before the
summons came to him. They were

William C. Whitney, former secre

after four o'clock Tuesday afternoon
Feb. 2, at his home, 871 Fifth avenue
New York. He died while under the

Mr. Whitney’s condition was very
grave however, Monday- night and at
a consulation held Tuesday afternoon
the conclusion was readied that the
only hope for the patient lay in a sec
