OIWKKVANCE OF TIIK 8AK1IATII. In the General Assembly of the Southern Presbyterian church in Richmond strong resolutions were passed condemning the desecration of the Sabbath as practiced in this country to-day on an extensive scale. The report of the committee contained the following words: ••The American Christian Sabbath is in imminent peril; in fact, in many of our large cities and in other parts of our land, it is already nearly.los f . This means that American liberty ami American institutions are in pe.-il, for of these the American Sab- fa ith has been both the foundation and protection.” \\’e are glad that this great de nomination, which represents so much of the solid Christain senti ment of the nation, has spoken out on this subject in no uncertain tones. It is true that in many places in this country the Christian Sabbath is but little regarded, and there is a strong tendency towards its utter abolishment. Railroad trains and street cars run their regu lar schedules; postofliee employes, and large forces in iron and steel foundries, and oilier industries are required to work seven days in the week and in private life all over the country the sacredness of the Sab bath is not regarded as it was in the early part of the century. Retribution is bound to come sooner or later. The Decalogue is founded on the deepest principles of human nature and not one of its commandments can be violated with impunity. The Creator lias so con stituted man and beast that their vital organism demands periods of rest and that if these be denied the penalty will be swift and sure. Leaving out of view the quiet, up lifting influences of the Sabbath day on man’s moral and religions life and looking at the matter from an entirely material point of view, we must see that mankind cannot atTord to disregard so plain and uncom promising a requirement made by the very conditions of animal existence. The necessities of the public are urged as justification for a large tart of the work which violates a law of Nature and Nature’s God. But what necessity can be stronger or hijlier than that of complying with the conditions on which the human ia-e holds its very existence? When brought to the last analysis the sole motive of this wholesale vio lation of the Sabbath, is to save time. But where does the saving come in, if life is cut short by a lon ger time than the aggregate of that gained by appropriating the Sabbath to secular employments? Before the days of railroads, many people moved from this part of the country to Texas, in wagons. We have often * heard it said that the necessity of one day’s rest out of every seven for botli man ami beast was demonstrated time and again during that period. Those who rested themselves and their teams invariably reached Texas first and were in better condition when they arrived, than those who, pleading the urgency of the case, travelled con tinually without)suc!i periodic rest. Wiiat is • unsafe for individuals to do in matters afTecting health and life, is unsafe for nations to do. The French nation, in that wild craze that came upon it just after the Revolution, abolished the Sabbath day by law. But it was not many years before observant statesmen be gun to see the baleful effect of such a law on the moral, social, political, and physical li.e of the nation. Then the law was modified and every tentli day, instead of every seventh, was adopted as u day of rest. But Nature makes no compromises, and the French nation ere long was com pelled as a mutter of self-preserva tion to come back to the Christian Sabbath. There is no time to be gained by ignoring the claims of the Sabbath day. A man had as well attempt to gain time by refusing to sleep and by pushing bis work botli day and night. Such are the claims of the Chris tian Sabbath bused on nutiiral prin ciples and viewed from the low plane of self-interest. It has infinitely higher claims than these, which we will not hero discuss. Its inlluonces on the moral and spiritual lives of men and of nations cannot be esti mated. NOTES AND COMMENTS. < Greenville and Spartanburg are both moving for electric railways, with a fair prospect of success. These cities have about reached the limit of growth at which such con veniences are demanded, and sup ply is usually created by demand. Gaffney must wait awhile for such a luxury, but she will not wait long. She is close behing her sister cities of the Piedmont, and before five years she will have electric curs running from Limestone to Hettio Hill. Stick a pin down here. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ We are glad to note that a propo sition has been made to South Caro lina Methodists to endow a chair in Wofford College in honor of Dr. Car lisle the president of the college. The great Methodist denomination in the State to-day could not do a more fitting thing than to testify in such a substantial way to their appreciation of the profound scholar and princely Christian gentleman, who for nearly a half of a century has directed the affairs of their college. Dr. Carlisle is truly a prince and a great man in Israel, and he has impressed himself on his generation as few other men have ever done. ♦ ♦ ♦ ■• Everything indicates that the cele bration at Cowpens next Saturday will be on a scale surpassing any thing of the kind ever before at tempted in this State. The different committees have been active and vigorous, and ample preparations have been made on the ground for a large crowd. Many distinguished speakers and warriors have expressed their intention to be present, and the people will come from far and near as if by a common impulse. Gaffney will be crowded with visitors next Friday night and we have no Lars hut that she will do her best to entertain them in a manner worthy of the occasion. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Secretary of War Alger says that our volunteers in the Philippine cam paign instead of wishing to he at home, would not have missed the j war for anything in the world—or | words to that effect. No doubt to | the Secretary in his cosy office in Washington with the flies all scared away and himself kept cool by elec tric fans, the war seems to furnish a tine opportunity for enjoyment to those ambitious volunteers who are following Aguinaldo through the tropical jungles; but all of the vol unteers who have been directly heard from talk very differently and one whole regiment has formally asked to be relieved. In the case of war us of mountains, “distance, lends enchant ment to the view.” ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ An interesting case of newspaper ethics lias developed in Spartanburg. Mr. Wm. M. Jones sometime ago bought the Piedmont Headlight from Col. T. Larry Gantt, together with its subscription list, good will, lock, stock, and barrel. One of the con ditions of the trade was to the ef fect that Mr Jones was to fill out all unexpired subscriptions, while Col. Gantt solemnly obligated himself not to start another paper in Spartan burg for a period of ten years from date, though he reserved the precious privilege of writing now and then for papers already in existence. Soon after the trade Mr. Thacksto'i. Col. Gantt’s former partner on the Head light, started another paper called the Free Lance which, it is claimed, is filled mainly with the varied pro ducts of Col. Gantt’s facile pen, and tlie paper is further sent to all Hie old subscribers to the Headlight with a view to winning them away from their first love. Mr. Jones thinks that Col. Gantt has violated the spirit of his contract and under ordinary circumstances we should think so too. But Col. Gantt’s sys tem of ethics is unique admitting of gyratory performances unknown to the standard systems. Mr. Jones lias likely not given the proper study and appreciation to this fact.

(iordou'H Speech mid the Hugging of the Widow of Ktoiiewull JiickHon. Hon. Frank B. Gary, representing the Legislative, and Lieutenant Gov ernor, M. B. McSweeny, the execu tive department of the State Govern ment, with Mayor J. Adger Smyth in behalf of the city of Charleston, and General C. Irvin Walker repre senting the U. C. Veterans of South Carolina having been heard from, it only remains to hear from General Gordon to fully understand the spirit of the meeting and how the States welcome was received. General C. I. Walker in introduc ing Gen. Gordon, spoke in behalf of the South Carolina veterans. His speech was about as follows: “The veterans of South Carolina division, whom I have the honor to represent as their commanaer, are loyal citizens and are part of that glorious commonwealth which has extended to you, my comrades, a wnole-souled welcome. I can add nothing to the eloquent words which have been spoken, and will 'not at tempt it. I will only say that how ever much the citizens of Charleston may esteem you, however deeply the people of South Carolina may love you, far deeper is the love of the old gray haired veterans who welcome to tlieir homes tlie boys who fought by their side from IStil to 180.’). “Under the starry cross of the confederacy, you, men of the South, led by the immortal Lee, Johnson and Beauregard, shouldtr to shoul der swept back the foe from Mary land's heights; side by side you stormed Snodgrass range at Chicka- maugu, bathed the field of Gettys burg with your blood and stood with dauntless courage tlie mighty as sault at Spottsylvania court house, and defied tlie enemy from tlie ruins of Fort Sumter. We feel the devotion, the bravery, the friendship cemented by common suffering dur ing those four years of desperate hardship. We know how to feel and welcome such comrades from the bottom of our hearts, which beat in steadfast devotion to the Southern Confederacy. We, South Carolina veterans, welcome to our homes you. our comrades, our brothers, from all over the South.” Handing the gavel to Gen. Gordon and turning again to the convention, he continued : “Comrades, do I not fully express the .earnest wisii of every heart in this grand gathering when, in handing the gavel, I say to Gen’I. Gordon that we hope that he may live long to wield it, and to pre side over the destinies of the United Confederate Veterans.” This was a signal for great ap plause. Veterans and their sons in every part of the hall arose and some stood upon the chairs waving their hats and battle flags, while in the galleries thousands of ladLs waved their handkerchief and fans—a dem onstration which told huw dearly General Gordon was loved by his people. The first lull gave tlie or chestra a chance to demonstrate by playing “Dixie,” when another long and rousing cheer was given. When the crowd quieted, Gen’I. Walker said he had intended to say some thing complimentary of Gen’I. Gor don, hut after that demonstration he felt that there was no need for it, as every veteran knew him too well. General Gordon then stepped to the front and said: “Governor, gen tlemen of the committee, my fellow- countrymen of South Carolina:—Tlie flood of emotion which stirs the sen sibilities of these veterans today is the loving answer to your gracious greeting. These emotions speak to you in language fur more impressive and eloquent than anything that I cun utter. Tlie ringing shouts from the thousands of Confederate throats are veritable echoes of the inspiring resolutions of welcome so unani mously adopted by your general as sembly. While the resolutions have cheered and filled every Southern soldier’s heart, they were not ren dered to tell us of the reception that awaited us in South Carolina. Her whole history and that of her commercial capital were the promise and guarantee of this magnificent reception. For more than two hun dred years, made memoriuble by he roic struggles in war and brilliant achievements in peace, the names of 8outh Carolina and Charleston have been the synonyms of hospitality, chivalry and valor. “What else could be expected of a people in whose veins are com mingled the blood of the proud English cuvliers? the blood of those devoted and resolute men who pro tested against the immoralities and grinding exactions of the Stuarts; the blood of tlie stalwart Dissenters, and of the hero'c Higlanders of Scot land, and the sturdy democratic Presbyterians of Ireland; the blood of those defenders of freedom who came to your shores from the moun tains of Switzerland, and last but not least, the pure and sacred blood of llie higli-souled Huguenots of France, whose martyrs, by a glorious fidelity even unto death, have made sweeter and rielier the record of human de votion to conscience and liberty. “No resolutions, I repeat, by which this gn at commonwealth ex tends its living welcome is needed to assure the remnant of the South’s immortal armies that the freedom of the State is theirs and that every heart within her borders is a soldier’s shrine. \\ e have hut to remember that South Carolina was an i is the nutsery of heroes and patriots, as well ua statesmen—that no one state, except she bo endowed with an almost boundless affluence of great ness, could In one century have given to the cause of liberty aud the repub lic such a splendid galaxy us South Carolina presents in a Rutledge, u Sumter, a Moultrie, aj Middleton, a Marion, a Butler, a I’inknoy, a Pickens, a McDuffie, a Calhoun, a Hamilton, a Huyno in her idolized Hampton and knightly Butler; to gether with a long list of intrepid spirits living and dead, who for four long years of wasting war, pinched by hunger, and in bare feet, trod the stony path of duty in their incom parable struggle for Southern inde pendence and Southern honor. Let us turn from this incomplete and long array of noble sons to contem plate the scars upon her bosom re ceived in her battles for American Independence at Cowpens, Camden, Charleston, Eutau Springs, Fort Moultrie and King’s Mountain, and to her “Swamp Fox” and his ragged brigade who roasted their rations of sweet potatoes in her forestijat night and made their sudden sallies now from the mountain and now from the marshes, upon the amazed and be wildered British invaders. “I should esteem it a still higher honor to stand here today as tiie herald of both the host and guests in proclaiming a message of good will to all our countrvnieo, and to send the fraternal greetings of this people lo all Confederates and to their children, to all patriots of all sec tions, to unite with our American brethren of every state in ascribing to the guiding hand of God the un-. puralled victories of American arms, in the late war on botli land and sea; and lastly by the memory of the fathers, whose spirits live in their sons, to pledge tlie South unfailing support to every worthy cause for strengthening the bonds of American unity, and thus accelerating the on ward march of the republic in its benign mission of humanity.” Informally taking charge of the convention Gen’I. Gordon said : "I know that every man and woman in this building will heartily j iin me in the sentiment that they have much to be thankful for, and before enter ing upon the work of tlie convention I will ask that everyone rise and sing “Praise God from whom all blessings flow.” This was somewhat of a new departure, hut it expressed (lie sentiment of a Christian’s heart. It was a superb moment, and more than anything else gave emphasis to the meeting. To hear the bugle that had sounded the charge on many a bloody field when dauntless cavalries rode into the very jaws of death, now leading a grand anthem of praise to “God, from whom all blessings How,” w as a coincident unparalleled in his tory ; perhaps something never thought of. Everyone who could joined in the winging, which grew into a volumn until it sounded like a chorus of thousands, of well trained voices. Young and old, battle-scar red veterans and their sons and daughters joined in. The sentiment appealed lo those who had prospered as well as to those who had not. A blind bughr of the army of Northern Virginia was in the front row of seats in nis invalid chair and joined hap pily in the singing and no voice in that vast assemblage of people ap pealed to tlie throne of mercy with more gratitude than that of bugler, Correll, of Virginia, for that was his name. He was a member of Fiiz- hugh Lee’s command. After this Gen’I. Gordon said: “My comrades, that glorious man about whom we used to hear so much;-that man of whom we and all others are so proud; that man who gave Ids life for our ca.se is not with us; but there is someone who “Stonewali” Jackson loved better than he did anyone or anything else, and iliat was his devoted wife. I want to present her to yon. Ashe led Mrs. Stonewall Jackson to the front a perfect pandemonium of ap plause burst forth from ail parts of the building. Old soldiers waved their huts, canes and crutches, while ihe sons jelled themselves hoarse. Battle Hags and Confede rate banners waved from floor, rostrum and gal leries. Whenever a lull came the band played “Dixie.” This was a signal for renewed applause which almost shook the who u building. Notiiing (.quailed it in ail tlie demon strations we saw or heard during tlie reunion festivities. As soon as he could be heard ’Gen’I. Gordon said: “I will shake her hand for you all,” but instantly he added, "No. I am going to do more than that, 1 am going to hug her for you,” and suit ing his actions to his words provoked another deafening round of applause. She bowed gracefully to the audi ence and retired amid a thunder of applause and the bands playing “Bonnie Blue Flag.” Mrs. Jackson is a medium size, beautiful woman. Father time has dealt gently with her. She was neatly, plainly and modestly dressed in black and is a fine specimen of Southern womanhood. While she was being cheered by the old Con federates and tlieir allies one felt that the spirit of her illustrious hus band was brooding over the scene. Hud Stonewall Jackson have ap peared upon the rostrum in his ideal person he could have received no grander ovation than did Mrs. Jack- son, his devoted wife. That tfhe should receive such a demonstration of loyalty to herself and her husband on llie thirty-sixth anniversary of his death is a coinci dent worthy of notice. j i. s.

That develop ment has been so marked ns to at tract not only the attention of men actively connected with the industry but of economic and induatrial stu dents throughout the entire country. There must of course, he certain prac tical advantages for manufacturing, advantages of a most pronounced character, before such a develope* ment could bo possible. The South has these advantages. “The greater growth of the textile in dustry in the South has naturally been in the developement of cotton manufacturing. And this develope ment has been along (lie line of cer tain large railway systems, notably the Southern Railway. “In 1800, according to the returns made to the Census Bureau, there were in the States of Alabama. Geor gia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia 30,200 looms and 1,533, 250 spindles. In these same States, on January 1, this year, there weie 95,552 looms and 3 790,000 spindles. Tiiis shows an increase of 104 per cent in tlie former and 147 per cent in the latter. There are in these States now 410 cotton mills, of which 211 are located on tlie Southern Rail way. “Judging from present indications the developemnt of the textile in dustry in the Soutli lias just begun. Several new mills have been located along the line of the Southern Rail way to he constructed within the next twelve months, and some of the work has already begun. In addition to these new mills a great many of those now in operation are adding new mac bin try and in other ways making preparations to enlarge their output. “A word of praise is due the South- ^99^9^9 999999999^ Thin, pale, anamic girls | | need a fatty food to enrich I I their blood, give color to | | their cheeks and restore their I $ health and strength.

Debt and Artificial F»e« The pi'odnctiou of cloud by the action of ultra violet light was demonstrated at a soiree at the Royal society byC. T. It. Wilson. The beam from an arc lamp was focused by a quartz lens in a tuba containing moist air free from dust. In a few minutes a blue fog was seen to form in the illuminated cone, and this fog could bo made to move by applying heat to the tube locally. When the ul tra violet rays were cut off by a sheet of mica, no such formation took place, and it is therefore suggested that the small particles which give rise to the blue of tho sky are produced by tlie ultra violet rays of sunlight absorbed in the upper layers of the atmosphere.—Engineering.
