I see that a few are a little oat of .aorts, let me talk a little to them. Boys; You know we are of the eaine family'live under, or in the easie don icil, an l you kno v we htve good laws. Don't tisrht * you know you will have a law- ettit, and I am soiry for the poor vrftness in the case. You kuow they get fifty cents a day, and a few cents a mile to uo to Walter- ), and you know we all would to go, that is if we did not or sleep anl th? • uly time that 1 olid not bare a good ap petite was when 1 was in the wap. If I went I would have to W one dollar a day, and I would he minus fifty cents the next morning. John, did you ever hear of eeeh a law? Takes a poor man, pets him under bond, makes him go ea a State witness at fifty •coots a day, while he pays one dollar a day for eating and sleep ing. Keep him there all the week, and the case is put off, and the next Court he has to go again, leaving his family to suf fer at homo, carrying extra mcneytopay his expenses. This is what our lawmykers have done for the poor man. Wgll Tom, yon know if the pav was raised to fl.50, giviug every man a margin of fifty cents to carry homeLtohis children, it would be ngfil amfjust. But—but, what John? We would have too many witnesses to pay Tom. I see yonr point John, and thaHs just what our lawmakers thought of. £0 compel an honest man to go for nothing to keep out liars and rogues? What are out Magis trates for? To detect sneh. Let feim be a man who is able to de cide, and when he decides who are the best, bind over two or three. Two are enough to break a man’s nock, nnd pay them for going the worth of th*ir time. As the caso stands today, a man eeeiog an act committed, will torn hir back to kee|/ from see ing it, or tell a lie to keep from going to Ocurt. for he is not able to Mand the expenee, and who can blame him? He had better tell a little lie, and let the Slate naffer, then let his poor children enffer. I don't see what oor sheep and ot.ier stealing. Can you not tell ina now? No, I don’t think you can bear it John. Goodby I'om, we will have a good talk next week. Tell Mr. Smoak I am going to vote for him . Now John, yon must not send that word to him, for the school teacher said the other da} that she is Koiug to have a 4 'bust up”, no, jioing to have a school picnic on the 12th of June, I believe, and Mr Smoak will bn here, well let him come. Must I tell him to come? Yes, and all the candidates- 1 think we can stand their hniks, bat some are pretty bad looking, but they am good men ail the same. H.

If you are pro hibitionist, 1 glory in your belief, 1 am with you I have drank some, but not like some drank all 1 could buy and beg more.

My friends try and build your Coanty op and not pu.l her down, try and devise some plan to get out of debt and not send her to purgatory. 1 think old Colleton is a glorious old homestead. 1 waa born in her, and L have married twicn yonr undertaking,jin her, and I love her sandy hills and mud holes also, be* ten is like ten now tail always 4 I cannot tali ten a dispensary, or in bar rooms, or in Tigers, tor it was sold public, and they did not have any license to pay. Mr J. said he would say, such wine as used at the great feast never saw a dispen sary or a bar room or a Tiger, well, 1 will agree with him. 1 kuow it never did because people in old times did not try to hide their black spots as they do now. They loved one another, they lived at home and not a abroad. My friend J. said it was the hit hog that alwavs squealed, but 1 think its on the other hand now for you kuow if you mash a cat’s tail he will holler, ao 1 must have mashed Mr. J's. tail. I do not know what part I mashed; as 1 spoke a great deal on the whiskey aud especially on the road law. I do say that if oor Legislators would look at the road question as hard as they do at the whiskey, it would out oar tax very much, oar heaviest tax is on repairing oar baggies and harness. 1 have seen two Bug gies broken down and had to be pulloi iu; axels broken, harneee torn up, man and lady hart. If whiskey had done it, it would have made a great talk, but as it was bad road, nothing was palsey, but they have played out of fashion now, and oor roads have taken thair place. Weil Mr ftobito, 1 sea a long •pace in the paper to eeek after whikey, bow are you going to protect the County then? Why the taxes of course. And who will pay the taxes? The poor people. And how many now can hardly raise their tax money, and so many have to ask help, aud if you raise their taxes, I am afraid they will have to sell the old hen to help out. I remain as ever Mr J’s best friend, and Mr J. knows what I said was so. He knows me, aud I know him also, he knows 1 am his friend, and I hate for him to get so much on one side of the fence. Now if Mr. J. will provide some way to get the pops out of our boys hands, 1 will join him baud aud glove, aud tho ciga rettes alto, for they have be come a nuisance to the land. They ruin health, make many a good looking boylook a if he eats dirt. Come now and do not be too hard on me in your reply, as 1 have not too much timo to write. J W L Peniel to Hare Sunday School.

Or a prison house? • Some say this life is a penitentiary where we are punished. “Life is thick ly strewn with thorns.’’ said one pessi mist, “sod I know no way save to paas quickly through them.*' These persons are stoics. Others view life ss a garden of gay- ety. They are epicureans. “Eat. drink and be merry" la the gonfalon of these. A abort life and a merry* one. say these ay barites. The atolc Is wrong. Life Is not thick ly strewn with thorns. It Is strewn with roses. The thorns are IncldentaL The epicurean Is also wrong. He that seeks pleasure for pleasure’s sake wll find only satiety. What. then.
