% I "Vol. VII. S INKING FUND 1 MISSION. , If there's any one in the County i or State who lias any clear cut idea of the objects and purposes of this Sinking Fund Commission and its agents, tint one would do our people ( a service to give the test of us the 1 wink?let us on to the racket. None i i we've seen understands fully its ue tions. The State papers can give no satisfaction. The letters from members of the board do not clear up the matter in the least; in fact they add other snarls to the entanglement. What in the world can be the matter? Lot us see what we can find out about this "reform moveinent!" Sections GO and 01 of thcOeneral Statutes of '82 reads; "Section GO. The Secretary of State sha'l take charge of all proper . . * I ty of the State, the care and custody of which is not otherwise provided for by law. lie shall hold the same subject to the directions and instructions of the Commissioners of tlie Sinking Fund. ' Suction 61. Hereafter no grants of vacant land shall bo issued except Jor mint; and all vacant lands shall bo likewise subject to the directions .s and instructions of the Commission* of the Sinking Fund." The Secretary of State, what says he of this business ? In the Columbia Weekly Register of August 23, e o o ' he tells us, 1st. "No vacant land In s been sold." 2nd. "Only aban doned lands have been sold and that strictly according to law." Vacant lands are what kind ? Abandoned lands arc what kind ? Slate Land Agent J as. (i. (liobs, defines thus in the same paper, next column to .J. F. Tin bill, Secretary of State's letter. "Vacant und is land that has never been granted, which still is the property of the State. Of this there is little left. Ahandonki> i.and is land belonging to parties who have for ten or more years paid no taxes on it?generally for the reason t/uit it was not cousidervd to he icorth its taxes." That seems plain as day, so what can it be that is raising this fuss? I'ooplo ought to bo able to under stand well enough that State law and the way they sav it is being carried out. But tukon in connection with what is being done, it is hard, lmrd indeed, to sec through. In other counties than this, there are strange reports afloat. Dr. James Mcintosh, a responsible citizen of Newberry, is authorfty for charges of mismanagement of this Sinking Fund business in his county. State lands are being sold without sufficient and in most cases without any advertisement of ^ v the sale, and speculated upon by if. agents; bought by these for from fifteen to twenty cents an acre and sold for one dollar per acre. In Clarendon County, it was, that "an investment of #1,700 in 0,701) acres of land in six months cleared the purchaser $8,000. The purchaser at inc mutes sate was .ins. u. Minos and others, at the second, from those was G. W. Hopkins, of Michigan. Deeds are recorded in the office of ('lerk of Court of Clarendon. Mr. Gibhs in his letter to the Register quoted ahove, says: "After the passage of said Act (of R^c, '89) the Sinking Fund Board came to the conclusion that the expense of lookingafter such lands would be so heavy that they were not willing to incur it. I then proposed to them that I would find these lands at my own risk and expense and yet remunerated J or my outlay out of the sale. Thin iron ay feed to." Yes, the Administration gave the chance and Mr. Gibbs seized it. i Those aie some of the reasons of the State papers and tho officials' . letters give so litt'o satisfaction and ease of mind to our land owners. . The Board does not seem to know what its agents are doing, although it claims to have bogn enquiring into tho matter. Horry is somewhat farther re^ moved from the public gaze than Newberry and Clarendon. But much concerning this Sinking Fund scandal can be learned in this far away corner of the State. Wo hope it may not bo because of this fact. Mr. Campbell, land agent for this , coui.ty has found gome few acres of abandoned lands which has been advertised and sold. About 1,500 of so called vacant' land has been surveyed by this agont. Most, if not all of it, has, without advertisement,been offeredinprivatcsalc for nominal prices. 'jLterUdn gentle- 1 . men wished to straighten their righta / t its *_, .# ,.i.. i ' ak - > ' conM lo about 1,200 .teres of this land. Mr. Campbell went to Columbia and brought back his instructions and papers presumably from Mr. (libbs. These gentlemen know nothing of Mr. Campbell's trip to Columbia. When he returned he brought instructions to take between seven and eight hun ilred dollars for the land given in consideration of the grant for it. But grants for all the tracts wore found notwithstanding1 Mr. Campbell said it "was utterly impossible for him to bo mistaken" in saying that no grants were ever issued for these lands Two books had been lost j when some of the records wore moved to Greenville during the war, Mr. Cutndbell said* All their land was on that book, he was told' No vacant land has been soid; but some- | bodv is being paid like fun for doing nothing, and sonic others are made uneasy while those somebodies are doing it. Some ancient history is being brought down to us in the fact. Tax 1 farming, according to the Roman law,, seems not dead yet. J. O. Norton.

The correspondent of tho Columbia Register, in his account of a political mooting held at Clio several: days ago, says: "General McRaurin's speech was grand, and won't he bo a wheeler alongside of Tom Walson!" There it is as clear as day. Mcl.aurin is running for Congress at a Democratic primary, and if he shall bo elected will be "a wheeler along side of Tom Watson !" Tom Watson is a Third Party candidate for Congress in Ccorgia ; he was nominated for Speaker by the Third Party at the late session of Congress; he is the leader of the Third Party in Georgia; ho is tho author of the National Campaign Book of the Third Party; he has utterly abandoned t he Democracy.

If ho wants to make -'a wheeler alongside of Tom Watson," let him join Tom Watson's party. ? > ? CALLED DOWN BY A VETERAN. Talbert's Son Rebuked for Slandering HamptonThe State. There was quite an exciting inci dent at the close of the county campaign meeting at Camp Ground yes-! terilay afternoon, which came near ending in a personal encounter betcen an old soldier and a young man who made slighting remarks about thorocord of General I fade Hampton. The parties were Gapt. W. II. Stack and a son of W. J. Talbert, who is tbo bookkeeper at the penitentiary. It seems that at the close of tho regular speaking of the county candidates, young Talbert was invited by the chairman to deliver an Alii-! mice address. In his speech he took ! Occasion to attack (Jon. Wade Hanip-! while referring to his defeat for the Senate, saying that ho had made no better soldier than the men who formed the rank and file of his army. Hampton, ho said, had merely had to remain in the rear and send forward his commands, flis men did the fighting. At the jucture Capt. W. H. tttaek, who has all along been an ardent urn ;A _ i i i iiiuiHiuu), ami wno 13 a gallant old warrior, with an everlasting love for the commanders of the Confederate forces, and who is still a powerful man, arose excitedly and said: "Just stop that, sir, I cannot allow you to speak of Gen. vVadc Hampton like that in my presence, for he was a "JJo True to Youi Y, 8.

With this the captain made at the young slanderer with lus umbrella and would have made short work of hi 111 hud not those gathered around interferredjand prevented a difficulty. lie was justly mad, and very mad, too. The meeting hero broke up with considerable excitement, which quieted down ofter a while. The above story of the matter is given as obtained from those who were there, and is, no doubt, absolutely correct. Answering a Fool According to His Folly. hot mo tell a Dutch story right here because it come from a Dutchman in the oast em part of Pennsylvania and must be a true story.

In his neigborhood tliero was a skeptic <vho said, "You can't believe any thing you can't understand," and so 301110 of (ho betterjclass of people asked trie Dutchman if lie would not have a conversation with him. He said, "Yes if you tink best." "Have you anv objections to tho neighbors coming in?" "No, sliustas you tink best." So they made the appointment and everybody was there. The old gentleman came in and laid by his hat and was introduced to tho skep tic, and he began suddoutly by say ing: "Veil, now lo'>k here. 1 pleofs tho Bible?what you pleofs?" Said he, "I don't believe anything 1 can't understand." "Oh, you must bo one very smart man, I vas mighty glad to meet you. I ask you some question. Do odder day I vas riding along tho road and 1 meet von dog, and dut dog had von of his ears stand up in dis way and the odder one he stand down so. Now, vy was datP" Now, that was very unhandy just then, very unhandy. He cither had to prove that that dog did not have one ear standing up and the other down, or else say he did not believe it. So he said, "1 don't know." "Oh, den, you are not very smart after all. 1 ask anoder question.

"No, I don't believe any such nonsense." "Oh, yes I hear all about you long ago. 1 know all about yo.i.

A writer in The Boston Adver-| tiser to]Is the story of a live cent i- in .i t/duuaiiai 111 llio l_LMVII Ui I jyillOUUl. This small capiUilist was a widow. She lived in a morgaged cottage; with her daughter and little grandson who were dependent upon her. ()no day there was not a cent of inon ! cy in the familv, when the hoy came in with a nickel which had been paid him* for somo small service. Tho widow invested the nickel in popcorn, and with some molasses found in the bottom of her jug she made fifteen popcorn halls. The hoy started out and sold these for 15 cents. With her little capital troblcd in en hour, tho widow bought more popcorn, and it was quickly peddled out at a good profit. The family went to work in earnest, and after awhile they had a little stand then a little shop, and at the end of fourteen years, they had paid off the morgage and had money in bank. This shows what can be dono with a nickel, says the Hoston writer. r Word, Your Work aiul Y ITJRBDAA | THE BAPTIST BOOMERANG. One of Tillman's Indecent Tricks Exposed[From the (?roenvUle Enterprise.| It was at tho joint discussion in | Edgotield last spring, wo believe, that Governor Tillman used the expression that ho was "not a Baptist who gets drunk and gambles," and the declaration has been repeated many times by Ids followers, .lust, what was meant by the statement it would be difficult to say, as it is in line with other vague and indefinite statements from the same source, which are intended to have a political effect., and leave the impression that their author is a bold and (taring leader, while ho is simply insin-1 tinting that which he dare not speak out plainly. Inquiry has boon made as to who was meant by the expression used, if it was intended to have a personal application, but 110 direct and positive answer has been made to the inqtiirry. The insinuation was accepted by many as intended for Governor Sheppard; who is a member of the EdgeHeld Baptist Church, an 1 who is the! only candidate 011 the Conservative ticket, except the Rev. Mr. Hiott, j who is a Baptist. Some persons have felt sojeonlidont that it was intended for Governor Shcppard as to urge that he ought to ropel the insinuation, but there was such vagueness in the statement and nttor lack of application, he could not assume that Governor Tillman meant to charge him with drunk ness and gambling. < )n the contrary coueious of his own rectitude in such matters, I10 had the right to assume, as was perfectly natural and Annclul/...) M...1 ' I' I 1 I \jV J11 OA O Illy l-1 I ?I I- \IV;>13IIIUI I 1IIIIUIU did not mean to east any sucb reflection upon his 'character, especially in the town where ho resides ana among the people who have known him from his infancy. Coventor Sheppard lias pursued the proper course and he has loft it to tho good sense of the people and their love of fairness and decency to deal with this question as to who was meant to bo stigmatized in such abase ntid cowardly manner, lie lias gone forward in tho dischagc of duty assigned him and has deported himself on ovoiy occasion as becomes tho Christian gentleman. Hut the unmanly lling against *"a Baptist wko drinks and gambles" has been used throughout tlio campaign, and it has been made to serve the political purposes for which it was intended. Upon learning a few weeks ago that some of the adherents of Governor Tillman in this and adjoining counties wore circulating' the [story that ho had charged Sheppard to his face with being a drunkard and a gambler, and that Sheppard had made no reply to the charge, we decided at once to ask for the evidence to refute this gross slander upon an honorable man, which would satisfy all reasonable people that t he charges were brought to influence the 'political campaign, and offset the damaging conduct of Governor Tillman in tilt- presence of the people, whom he hud shocked by his profanity and obsenity. In accordance with this decision we wrote a lotter ofjinquirry to the Rev. J. N. Booth, who is 'the pastor of tho Edgefield Batist Church, and who has the very best opportunity of knowing whether there is a particle of truth in the charges so industriously circulated. Mr. Booth is a iui.dster of exceptional gifts, an experienced pastor and a devout man. lie is a native of North Carolina and has been living in Edgefield sinco bo came to this State, a year ago, anu he is surely qualified to speak as to the conduct and character of our candidate for Governor* IIis testimony is clear and explicit, and we are greatly mistaken if it does not prove satisfactory to tho public, especiully to tho members of the Baptist denomination, among whom this slanderous story has been used with cunning purpose. Mr. Booth's letter is as follows: Edokfikld, S. O.July80,1802. Dear Sir: I havo been pastor of the Batist Church at Edgefield for a year, and my relations with ExGovernor J. C, Sheppard havo been cordia) and friendly, and in all this our Country" % hp: PT^ time I have not seen him under the influence of liquor or at. all behaving inconsistently with his profession as a I'hristhin gentleman. I esteem him very highly as a citizen, a friend and a member of my church. He is j not a drunkard, and as to his being a gambler it does not seem reasonable that A. S. Toippkins, Alvin Hart and Dr. \V. E. Prescott, of the village, and T. S. Lewis and J. II. Houxnight, of the neighborhood, directors of the Hank of Edgefield, would have elected him president of that institution had he been of such a character. All of thorn have known him well and for years. He is a man singularly free from anything little, profane or ungcntlcmanly. He is devoted as father and husband, liberal and sympathetic toward his church and pastor, able and faithful as lawyer and counsellor, and patriotic and true as citizen and officer. Vou may with safety trust him Very truly, ,1. N. Hoo'.h. Col. A. Iloyt, (Irecnville, S. 0. A newspaper writer gets letters from everywhere on all sorts of sul>jects.

Such letters from a stranger to a stranger arc tho most natural, the most touching, (ho most impulsivo things in t he world. They are mighty sweet to u writer because they warm 1 up those tires in the heart that make us love to advise, protect and com fort others. I think the happiest, lovingest moment in a mother's life is when her child comes to her to bo comforted with its little mouth put up to cry and its weak little anus clinging for help. Good men love to protect women. The other name for this sweet paternal instinct is chivalry. Good wtfi men love to comfort the men they love and each other. It istho maternal instinct, sweet as a flower, aiul'God help the sterile heart that has it not.

Sometimes \vc are shy of our own and find it easier to make confession to or to ask advice of a stranger. This stranger young lady says in her letter to me: "I earn si good living. Would you advise mo to give up my free life and independence to marry a man who loves men very much?" And I answer, 110, si thousand ti mes 1 0. The time has gone by when girls marry for a living or for convenience. The time has gone by when men marry to save the price of a cook or to have some seamstress make their shirts. Men worth marrying do isoi marry simply to secure a home. They want wives who are their con genial companions, not merely the 1,,.,,:,^ 4l.~! lUUIJUli lain IUI I.IIUIl pilStJIOMM, nil! caterers for their appetites, the menders of their socks. Every man marries for children. Jlo must always have a divine tenderness for the sweet wife who puts into his arms a son that shall bear his name and make it live after him. Then the slightly domestic side of him is content in a well ordered, cheerful home, lie is proud of a wife whose social graces shr,e, whom other people take to and love and whose society they frequent. Not any real man cares for simply fashionable society of that sort which is respected by opera boxes, toas, crush es jams and jim jams of dinners, every man's vanity is flattered by a wife who charms people, who gath i AI.J .. l.S~t . * I I./.M ll.MAi.j.

Their social attentions to their wives are twinborn of custom ami duty. They have no genial fireside, no newsy friends dropping in imforinally.

Any real life they live, that is,1 any unbent, llesh and blood, spontaneous existence they may have, goes , on elsewhere than in tho serene, dull, uniform paradise of monotony they call home.

Kx. Learn the Value of MoneyA silver dollar represents a day's work of tho laborer. If it is given to a boy ho has no idea of what it has cost, or what it is worth. He would be as like to give a dollar as a dime for a top or any other toy. Hut if tho hoy has learned to earn the dimes and dollars by tho sweat of his face, he knows the difference. Hard work is to him a measure of values that can never be rubbed out of his mind. Let him learn by ojeperienco that a hundred dollars represents a hundred weary day's labor, and it seems a groat sum of money. A thousand dollars is a fortune, an l ten thousand is almost inconceivable, for it is far more than he over expects to possess. When he has earned a dollar, he thinks twice before he Spends it. He wants to invest it so as to get the full value of a day's work for it. It is a great wrong to society and to a hoy to brine: him up to man's estate without this knowledge. A fortune at twenty-one, without it, is almost inevitably thrown.' "ay. With it, and a little and a liu.o capital to start on, he will ; make his own fortune better than any one can make it for him. Tt was l?on .Johnson, we believe, who, when asked Mai lock's question. "Is life worth living?" replied, "That depends on the liver." And Hon .Johnson doubtless saw the double point to tho pun.

No village or hamlet in South Carolina, howevor obscure, hns boon beyond its inlluence; its graduates have done much to make the history of the State great and to keep it so; around its past cling many tender memories. Its ancient reputation must be maintained, and this support should come with all the strength and influence of two thousand Alumni, who are useful citizens of this State. From the many changes in South Carolina since reconstruction the South Carolina College lias not escaped, and recently the report tiH8 gono abroad that it lias boon permanently injured by its las roorganiza| lion. To correct this misupprohen1 sion is the purpose of this address, the solemn and no less sacred obliga1 tion of her Alumni. Lukewarm friendship .and support may do more harm than open welfare, and many old students of the South Carolina College aro lukewarm in lovo and chary of work in her behalf, becauso they have been told that this is no longer the South Carolina Colloge of the past. We, who have at various times sat at the feet of her instructors some of us yet young and but shortly departed from her care, some of us of an older generation, whom sho cherished in antebellum days ? wish in all sincerity and earnestness to assure you that hor capacity for public service has not been impaired. Solicitude for hor welfare has indu ced us to examino for ourselves her courses and her methods. At r.o timo has her organization for thorough collegiate education, real thorough training of mind and heart, been better. The gentlemen of her h'aculty maintain a high standard of honor and scholarship, a heritage from their illustrious predecessors; her students are earnest and diligent; her young graduates aro cultured and refined gentlemon. The standard of scholarship is high, and the moral religious influences are all that anxious parents may wish. t nysicul aovelopinents ot tne strong i and tender care of the sick are amply provided for. The last General Assembly has firmly established the College: thorc is now in no quarter a disposition to intermeddle with the Trustees in tho management, and all reasonable requests for financial support, wo are ; assured, will be liberally granted. To renew . her former prosperity, but one thing igjacking, to regain for tho College tho loyalty, the love, the ambition of its Alumni. There is no cause foi alarm; the South Carolina College is too firmly implanted in the hearts of tho peopie of this State over to be in danger j of destruction; but for the perfect fruition of her work she needs students from every County, every township of the State.
