It may be well in tbisoH-yenr of jmli
tics for us in Abbeville County ti: .aken
purvey of our political situation, ant!
cot our bonrint's. 'I'llim Cniintv li;in en.
joyed ami does enjoy throughout the
Ktntfi tho honor of having a population
second to none in integrity, intelligence
and character In the councils of the
Rtate, Abboville has not lack, d great
men. Iler voice has been heard and
her influence felt through the medium
of those who commanded the respect ami
attention of the public. That wis have
lost somewhat of the prestige that, we
have enjoyed will not be denied; and
of ooursc the loss of this must be within
ourselves. We httvu degenerated in our
political principles and methods, l'olitics
with us have become entirely personal.
Factional spirit has assumed u
size and importance unknown to the
former political history < ( the Count}'.
Men are elected or defeated for ofiiee
now not upon thiir merits and qualifications,
or their lack of qualification, but
Upon an,issue ofn purely personal nature,
without relation to the welfare of the
public service. Small men have jjrown
into power ami intluenee bj- playinj:
upon the passion ami prejudice ol
humbler and more credulous citizens.
Private quus'ions. of no soil of public
i.nporia ice, hove been wrunjriiilo poliiicanvasses;
slander and abuse have b"en
dealt in to the detraction of political
opponents. Narrow, unsound, and pernicious
doctrines, with a calch-penny
pound of nlansibilitv about them, have
been made to do duty for political
principles. We are weary of and disgusted
with this low plane of politics.
It behooves ns to rebuke men who have
no higher ambition than their personal
advancement and aggrandizement, and
who, to accomplish their selfish ends,
, pervert the sentiments and play upon llie
credulity of their constituents- We u-nni
Abbeville to take high rank !>y reason
of the character, the virtues, the ability
pn(l the statesmanship of those whom she
honors with high plnco ami powers.
The first step in this direction is to
eradicate from our local politics the
abuses that have crept in?elevate the
standard of acquirements. Lot us get
rid of tlio personal feature of our politics
that fills every one of our canvasses
with bitterness and hatred, and give
birth to charges of fraud and wrong
doing; if, indeed, the actual deeds he
wanting. Elect men to office bocausc
they are competent to discharge official
duties, and because their character entitles
them to respect and confidence; and
(lo this without reference to u-hieli ui.ln ?i
the party issues that divide us, they ma}
stand upon Then will we have taken
at leant one .step toward the improvement
of our local politics.
DYNAMITERS IN* KXGIjANI).
In another column we give an account
of a most dastardly attempt to Mow ttji
the House of Commons in Knglarid.
From the present reports it seems that
the outrageous attempt* was made bv
women. What is to become of 0111
country if the gentler sex feel called
upon to pepetrate such deeds, as surpass
in blackness the moat wanton crimes
committed in the darkest ages ? There
is a cause for it somewhere. Does the
responsibility rest upon the lawmakers,
or upon those who execute the laws':
If upon either, it can and should be corrected.
Does it not rntlmr ri>?l nnn?
mistaken zealots nf freedom and liberty,
who arc satisfied w'lh nothing, and
whose chief aim serin only to destroy
Can any 0110 look upon these dastardly
crimes, and then approve of any measure
to forcc our women out of their natural
sphere, and encourage their contact with
such measures? America so Tar han
uscaped, but can we hope to he the exception
when all nations and governments
tire passing through such ordeals":
This "land of the free" may escape, hut
if so we will have the (liver of all good,
and not our so-called apostles of liberty,
to thank.
HONOltS TO THE I>KA1>.
Eulogies upon the Hon. .J. II. 10vins,
deceased, and recent member of Con*
gross from the Fifth District of this
State, were made in the House of Representative.*
on last Wednesday. Congressman
I-iVins was highly esteemed by
all who know him, and the remarks
made by different Representatives were
1 -1
. unuitiiy nun ucservetiiy complimentary.
We give below what Col. J. U.
Randall, the accomplished repovtor of
the Agusta Chronicle, in Washington,
tyns to K?3r of them :
,lS?0 Congressman who has passed
away of late jears has been fortunate in
his eulogies than the late John II. Kvins.
The two best memorial tributes wore
thoso of General Tom Browne, of Indiana.
and Mr. Tillman, of South Carolina.
Browne is ordinarily the most cantankerous
of sectional IUpublicans, of the old
I'raise-God-Iiarebones formation; but
the the beautiful soul of the man from
Spartanburg ovoked his homage and
admiration. Mr. Tillman's eulogy was
quite out of the ordinary run of such
speeches. It was scveroly simple, but
had many quaint, original, profound and
gentle touches?a raro union of sentiment
and philosophy. It was highly
complimented by such a man as Governer
^AiCtntr. of Mneuai*ht,?i/?*?o _v.~ - ? ? * -
... ?.nvHumwi, mm in & mnsicr
of tho English language and an artist in
the use of it. What Tillman said of
Evins was true. The dead man deserved
tho praise so fervently but judiciously
bostowed upon him. Of very fow pubr>,
lie mot) can this l>e declared, in an age r.
of wide-spread licentiousness and dishonor."

There is a great scarcity of money

have not the money ami cannot borrow
it at any per cent. A Building and Loan
Association would relieve this pressure
to a great degree.

darming explosion has just occurred.
I'lie Houses of Parliament and the (.iov rnment
offices were severely shaken,
md considerable damage was done. It
s impossible at this moment to tell the
ixter.t ol' the calamity. The report of
he explosion was heard in Pi.wiling

mormons crowds are assembling at

['he origin of the cxph?>ion is wrapped
n profound mystery, hut it is believed
o have been caused by dynamite.
Loniion, January 2-i?i P. M.?The
xplosion occurred close to the Mouse
?f Lords, near Wesminster Hall It is
eported that the explosive was place.I
n the crypt under tlie building. One
loliceman was hurt. The force of the
hock was tremendous atr.l was felt at a
treat distance. The amount of damage
lone was very great.
There were two explosions instead of
ine, as at first supposed, at I ho Partianent
Houses. Tile second came iilmnl
hree minutes after tho first. One man
las been arrested m ar the scene of the
:xplosion. The detective force is hard
it work now seeking further developnents,
the particulars of which are
inxiously awaited by the people in the
leighborhood of Westminster I!:?!!.
Saturday being a great visiting day,
he Parliament buildings contained a
real number of sight seers at the time ol
he explosions. The first explosion ocjurrcd
in the cryptof Westminster Hall.
i lie second tooK place i:i the stranger's

before the first explosion a
a ly visiior who was alone an:l who w;.s

iooner reached the ball than the o.ickage
xploded. The explosion knocked tho
loliceman dowi and injured hi>11 so seiously
that hi-? c.tse is at present considered
critical. Its torce also knocked
lown two other policemen who were
[binding in the vicinity and badly
tunned them. A lady and g ntlrman
standing near the ollicer who had the
inckage were a!s > prostrated. The grent
vindow over the main entrance to Westninster
Hall was smashed to atoms and
ill the side windows were bi-Mvn out.
in tho interior of the House of Commons
iih! upon the floor the only s at damaged
>y I ho explosion was that which Mr.
Jladstone occupied. It was badly
>roken. A small chip was also torn oil*
he top of the Speaker's chair.
The explosions caused quite a panic
inning the visitors who were in the
uiidimr at tho time. Those who were
n the House of ('ominous fled precipiateiy,
end many of the ladies wore
iruised in the crush.
The second explosion in the Parliament
juildings occurred throe minutes later
ban the first, and was far more destruc;ive.
The dynamite which was used in
he second explosion must have been
>laced under the Peers' gallery on the
left side.
Little hope is entertained of the survival
of the wounded policeman. The
orce of tho explosion was such that one
nan was blown to the earth who was as
*ar as three hundred yards from where
t occurred. The lobby of the Hons** of
Commons was completely demolished.
(\ clue to the perpetrators of the.outrage
is thought to ~have been discovered,

IjONUOX, January. 24?I..VJ P. M.?
The prevalent belief is that the destructvc
agent was conveyed into the House
?f Commons by seine Saturday visitor,
[''tiller investigation shows that the exent
of the damage is much greater than
tvasal first supposed. This western exreniily
of t!ie house is n tbtal wreck.
I'here is no doubt that the explosive
was passed under the peers' gallery on
:he tiovcrmnent sido of the house. All
:he woodwork in that part of the buihlng
was shattered, and a wido hole was
made through the iloor. The gallery
ivas displaced, and even tho solid stone
ivork of the doorways was cither pulverized
or shifted from its position.
Kvery pane of glass in the house was
smashed to atoms, tho benches were
jverturned and broken, and the gallery
generally dismantled. One lady who

nj tired. Immense damage was done in
Jie lobby. The masonry, decorationsand
sculpture were utterly destroyed. The
>h\ce is described as literiilly torn to
ueces. The shock was felt in Pall
Mall, more than half a mile distant, and
xMsyns in the vicinity say that the very
avth shook. Sir Win. Vernon Ilar:oui
t, homo secretary, and Marquis llaringdon,
secretary of Slate for war, arc
visiting the scene.
Another amount of the explosion .it
Westminster I la 11 is as follows: The
explosion at Westminster llall was more
lisastrons than at firiit anticipated ;
our persons were hadly injured, inclining
two policemen, who aru probably faall)'
injured. A lady who was in the
lall spied the infernal machine and

London, January 24.?7 P. M.?The
statutes of King William IV., and King
George IV. in Westminster Hall were
overturned by the explosion at the
Parliament buildings. Tho fact that an
unusual number of ladies visited the
Parliament buildings to-day has given
rise to the suspicion that tho miscreants
who perpetrated the outrages were
either women or men in women's disguise.
It is now remembered by nttondii...
ii.-> i
iiiivn uwviii nit* uuimiings unit purccis
were carried by many of the women,
and that they seemed to bestow unusual
care in guarding them.
The explosion took place exactly at 2
o,clook in the afternoon. Lord Chelmsford
and (Jen. Milman ar<: now engaged
in the work of inspecting the structure.
Some reports place the number of persons
injured by the Tower explosion at
only four. No arrests have yet been
made in connection with the Tower explosion.

London, January 24.?5 1'. M.?The
investigation made so far by the police
lead to the conclusion that the explosives
used in the attact on the Tower were
handled by persons who gained access
to the structure as sight-seors. The
ruins also show that the explosives were
operated from a point somewhrre near
the inner bastion or on the esplanade,
near St. Thomas Tower. It turns out I
that tin: police.' wore unusually prompt!
aud successful in placing their embargo
upon all egress from the Tower grounds,
as hut few persons hod left when this
cniborgo was ordered. Kxtra guards
have been posted ahout the walls, and
every person within them will he .subject
to a persona! examination. Tin* report
imufe by the Tower explosion was
terrific. It was heard for miles up and
down the Thames and at once attracted
an immense crowd to(li*> scene.
London, .January 24.?f>.Iri I'. M.?
Another account of the explosion at the
Tower gives the following details : The
scenes in anil around the Tower of London
are indescribable. S.-vcr.il children
of tender age are among the injured in
the Tower, and their pale faces, bloody
heads and broken limbs rois.vd the j*reat
crowd congregated in the vicinity to
frenzy. Yells are heard on every f ide to
uI?ynch the villians !*' "Uoa-st the
fiends!'-" All the visitors are still detained
in the Tower, and will be kept
there until their antecedents have been
thoroughly inquired inLo.
Col. Majondie, chief inspector of explosives.
in an interview this afternoon,
said that the explosions were due to
nitro-glyceriiiO compounds, precisely i
similar to those used in the previous
outrages in this city. He believed that
