THE DESTRUCTION OP FORESTS. We made a little flying trip last week through portions of Cherokee and of Spartanburg county, and there was nothing in the list of our observa tions that impressed us more than the disappearance of the forests. In a sec tion of country with which wt 1 have been familiar from boyhood, where great forests stood in all their glory, through which we used to hunt the squirrel by day and the opossum by night, now there is nothing to be seen in any direction but the bald earth baking in the sunshine and pre senting a wide-spread scene of bleak and barren desolation. It looked, in many places, as if some terrible tor nado had swept the earth bare of every living tree and shrub and flower, and left only a dreary desert behind it. The whole face of the country has so changed within a few years that places once familiar as the scenes of childhood are now as strange and soulless as the dull, forbidding aspect of some strange land. The question came to us frequently : Why all this change, this waste, this wide-sweeping destruction, this un hallowed desecration? Has the pop ulation of the country become so crowded that every square acre of the ground mutt be cultivated in order to support life? We are far from that point yet. The whole policy is a mis take born of greed, selfishness and shortsightedness One half of the area now in cultivation, under another system of farming, would yield far more abundant results. This genera tion. before it passes away, will be gin to realize the penalty of its folly in the scarcity of fuel and of build ing material; and the people to live hereafter will wonder at the reckless extravagance and selfishness of their fathers. Already lumber for building purpo ses has to be shipped from a die'ance, and material < f fi -t rate quality is scarce and becoming scarcer. Tin r. are many farms of considerable size on which a young hickory cannot be found that would make an axe han dle, nor a young white oak that would furnish splits for a basket. These, ana all such things, must he bought, while the trees, out of which they might bo made, have long since been cut down and ruthlessly burned on the ground in order to get them out of the way. The spirit of the farmers is the spirit of the age—a wild, blind, reck less spirit that will bear no curb and listen to no persuasion. Expansion is the rage, from the individual to the community, from the community to the nation. Everywhere it is push, grasp, spread, rush, and the devil take the hindmost. There is no time for social enjoyment, little opportunity for intellectual culture except along^the sharp, straight lines that lead to increased possessions. Religion is absorbed, family affection cooled, and the inter-relations of so ciety which sweeten life and foster purity and happiness are vitiated— All by the wild spirit of the times. ~ All newspapers are expected to exert themselves to increase the fu ror—to urge the people to greater speed—to taunt and shame those who lAg behind in the race for wealth—to boom every business enterprise that promises more money and a greater tax on human vitality. The news papers ought to be crying, halt! They ought to be trying to teach that man is something more than a ma chine for making money—that the life is more than meat—that mind and heart and soul arc forces in the world with which the power and glit ter of gold compare as the light of the glow worm compares with that of the noonday sun. The strain of life is too great. The sods are not worthy of the efforts put forth to obtain them. In the bosom of the future there is a day of won derful surprises, as well as of reckon ing and of r> Mhntinn. HUJLDING AND i.OANIS.

Jl is ani.ouuc-<i t h i tit* ir * r- state concern in Atlanta, in which some of our citizens are interested, has gone in ! o the hands of a receiver after having boon in operation about nine years, or just about as long as it was possible for it run and keep frauds and losses concealed from the stockholders. Nine years ago the promoters of this company came around soliciting subscribers to stock and offering loans and terms that appeared to be most favorable. 1 hey made people believe that a policy would mature in their association in seventy-eight months, when the amount Invested would have piore than doubled itself, and they demon strated by neat columns of figures that a man could borrow from them at a rate of interest so small 'that he would almost rather pay it than have the use of the money without interest. There were somewhere in the neighborhood of one hundred shares taken in this town, and three or four thousand dollars was borrowed. Some of our citizens have up to this time paid on their stock for more than eight years, and still there have been no signs of maturity. Uorrow- ers have paid twelve per cent, inter est all this time, which with regular premiums now amount in the aggre gate to more than principal and in terest at eight per cent, for eight years; and when they have proposed a final settlement they have been in formed that from one-fourth so one- half of the amounts borrowed is still due. The whole concern has probably been a sleek all-round swindle from beginning to end, and both borrowers and investors in this town will refuse to make further payments unless compelled by law. We are not prepared to make spe cific charges of rascality against the officers of this association ; but we do assert that with a modicum of busi ness sense and a lingering spark of honesty in the management, there would be no chance for an association conducted as this >ne professed to be, to become bankrupt. It was not supposed to keep any money on hand, was not authorized lo specu late on any commodity, and had all of its loans secured by mortgages on city real estate. The conclusion is that there has been either flagrant dishonesty or criminal carelessness in the management. The conditions should warn our people against put ting their money into • nterpriscs away from home, managed by men of whom they know nothing. NOTES AND COMMENTS. CITY AND COUNTY CONGLOMERATED.

It has four churches, a fine school, an oil mill, and about 1,000 industrious, high- toned people. The country around it is level and there are tine natural roads leading to it from all direct ions. The Western Carolina R. R., which runs by it. under the presi dency of Major John B. Cleveland is fast becoming one of the best and most thriving railroads in the State, and when the large cotton mill now under way at Woodruff gets into operation the town will begin a new career of prosperity.

If Not 'Wiielied Too ('leuil, it May Ho Seen i'TowiltK Holii Mu>*. That the drainage canal can How two ways at oucc may seem <iuccr, hut Isliam Randolph, chief engineer of the sanitary district, says it is entirely possible. Not only is il possible, says he, but in all probability there will be half si dozen or a dozen times a year when such a peculiar phenomenon may he observed. A southwest vind following soon aft er a northeast wind would almost cer tainly create such a condition, accord ing to Mr. Randolph. As every one at all familiar with the whims ami pecul iarities of Lake Michigan knows, a sustained northeast wind lasing sev eral days will raise the level at the Chicago end of tin* lake and sem] great quantities of water into the Chi cago river. A southwest wind lias tho opposite effect, ami the effect, would be most marked when brought about im mediately after a northeaster. Tho ,water piled up in the drainage canal Would begin to How to the lake with tlie failing level—that Is, the surface water would. The actual Ihnv In tho canal would be maintained owing to the open sluice gates at tho Loekport end, so the two mile an hour flow to ward Loekport would keep up, but be neath the surface. As long as the southwest breeze would last the wa ter would be flowing the two ways at once. “I never saw thnl so clearly illus trated,” said Mr. Randolph lit explain ing the phenomenon, “us one day when we were pumping water out of a pool In the canal when wo were building If. The pumped water was nil roiled and black, and it poured into some exceed ingly clear water from a spring near the Des Plaints river. There was a breeze, enough to create a surface cur rent on the el. nr water, through which 111* 1 current of yellow water could be clearly observed (lowing In the opposite direction.

It was only u dainty litth' note from a woman depositor, but it caused a gentle ripple of merriment among the accountants ami tellers of an up town bank. The institution eaters to wom en, ami the president lias often remark ed that the women depositors were in some respects more careful in their business methods than the men. A few days ago the discovery was made that the account of one of the women depositors had been overdrawn a few dollars. The usual .notification fn such eases was sent to the deposit or, with the request that the account be made good. A prompt and polite re ply was received from the delinquent. She apologized for the overdraft, thank ed the hank officers for informing her of the fact so courteously and inclosed her cheek on the same bank for tho amount of the overdraft.

The history of O/angehurg county was written by Mr. A S. Sail) Jr., secretary and treasurer of the South Carolina Historical Society. Mr. Sally is a man of reputation as a his torical scholar, anti he shows careful ftudy in the preparation of his book. Such works of local history are very interesting and of immense value as the basis of histories of larger territo ries and of more general subjects. | We wish we had more of them. Mr. ! Sally, However, gives u-t the history , of Orangeburg county from tho fust ! settlement to the close of the Rt-vo- j Iutionary war only. We hope he will extend his work down to the present.

Dr. Thomas was a dis*inguisht <1 cler gyman of Mariboro, loved and esteem ed by all its eiiiz ns. Marlboro is one of the most prominent counties in South Carolina, and is rich in his torical treasures. The facts given lay Dr. Thomas are not stated in a dry way, as i* the case in most works of thi> nature, hut they are presented in such an interesting style that it is really fascinating to read the book.
