A shortMtime ago while digging a grave in the Presbyterian cemetery, the workmen struck something which, they thought was the end of an iron box. The.men reported this to some persons, bnt a thorough investigation was not made, and the secret was not revealed then. Since then, s'>me ladies.whose curiosity was naturally aix.ased, and who had probably heard t'ie story that, many;years ago an iron box co,ntaininrg goId had been buried -so:ewhere- in~ that vicinity, decided' to h-ave the object whatever it was, un earthed. Their plans were frustrated a.r their bright visions of hidden :treasure,.soon to be in their possession, ~vanished, when they were told that -severai gentlemen had made an ex -amination at the time of the grave (ligging, which proved that the iron bo:r was nothing more than a metallic co:fin which had been buried years ago and all traces of the grave had dis appe.ared.

Mason, that Jessie S. Gradick a member of our company, died at tht home of his son, J. S. Gradick, Jr. in December last, in *Barnwell coun'y S. C. He was wounded at South Mountain 'Md., September 14, 1862, and at Colt Harbor; Virginia, 1864, and, I think was wounded a third time, but I have misplaced Mr. Mison's letter, ani can't remember date and place. Mr Gradick surrendered with Lee's army of Northern Virginia, April, 1865 He was in the war almost from be ginning to finish. Thus it is our ok company is gradually diminishing the zew who were left when the figh ended have all passed over the rive: except about twenty. Perhaps I should not exaggeratt were I to say that no troops on eithei side did their duty more faithfully than our little band.

Rotten Political Parties--A Doctor at Last Mr. J.B. Morrison on Phrenology. I am not a politician, and as the election is over, and news is scarce, I will try to say something about the ottenness of the different nationa] actional part,ies of the United States. ne of the best illustrations along this line is one made by a Re.publican can. idate for' Congress of western ?enn sylvania. In his stamp speech he ook a wainua an illustration of the ufferent parties; hLe held up the wal. ut and said: Fellow-citiz mns, yox see this walnut. The outer shell repre sents the . Democratic party, soft spongy and, no strength. I can break the shell off with my fingers, and hi roke off the shall, an I held it ut again, and said, this shell representJ the Prohibition party, h ir'd, dry and no strength. Then he said,.'.!ih9ii;itf, fellow-citizensrP2!'iifs the Repub Snit:pa-*y,-nd then he proceeded to crack the walnut to give his audience n occnlar demonstration of his illus tration, but, behold, it was rottmn, and to the utter astonishment of his audi~ dience, he said: "By thunder, it is rotte." Truly the rotten walnut does represent the rottenness of the differ at parties of the United States. The hull of the walnut does represent the emocratic party t,o some extent; it has a little strength, if it is but enough to make a little walnun dye. 1 do not know what could be made of the hard shell. I shall leave that to some of the rhibitionists, but I do know that there could be nothing done with the rotten inside. So you see we are the soundest after all. Mr. W. H. Mackorell, of our town, has gone to Lenoir, N. C., where he will attend to business for his uncle. We have got a doctor at la-t. Dr. EHays, of Abbeville County, h,as come to this place.

JEFFARES WOULD DO. High Taxes, State Institutions and th School Tax. Mr. Editor: -There has been some i comphint about high taxes and pec d p1e's inability to pay the obligation. i the State and county has imposed upor . them for the support of our govern r ment. Perhaps it would not be amis: - to take into consideration some of th< e reasons why our taxes are so high Becruse we are keeping up too man: State institutions at the expense of on i taxpayers. We are supportiug fiv+ a State colleges. the South Carolina Col lege, Clemson Colleg., Clalin Univtr i sity, for the benefit of the colored peo ple, the Citadel, at Charleston, and r Winthrop Cillegc, at Rock Hill, for the education of our girls.. It neces sarily follows that the people have been taxed to establish and mainta&r these colleges, which have been almost beyond ther ability to pay. There arc presidents and a large corps of pr. ffssors at these institutions drawinf salaries ranging from $t..260 to $3.000, There are other e:penses in the way of appropriaiions for improveinent. which render it impossible to 'keel then up without high taxes.' I li tv not got the data to show- the exact amount of expenses at the flve Stat< colleg , but I baz.rd little in saying that we are keeping up more Statt institaions, at a greater expense, in propo. tion to our wealth and popula tion than any other State in the Unio;i I believe there ought to be two col leges kept up by the State, one for the girls and one for the boys. If we keep Clemson College, let us abolish the South Carolina Col lege, Claflin University and the Cim del. I believe the Legislature ought to pass a resolution and submit the matter to the people and let them decide by a populat vote whether or not they will keep five colleges or two And let them decide by a vote which they will keep, Clemson or the South Carolina College. If they retain Clemson, let the Board of Trustees establish a chair of Latin and Greek, and make it a mechanical, agricntural and literary college, where the pupils can get as thorough a course or in struction as they get at the University of Virginia, or Harvard, or Yale Col leges. There are a areat many people all over our State who contribute, by way of taxation for the -support of these colleges, who are not able to patron ize them, and then there are others who contribute largely who would perhaps prefer sending to denomina tional colleges. I do not believe in taxing the people extortionately for public purposes. Some may say, Oh! we can stand that amount, and perhaps they have never calculated to see how much we would pay out in an inrterve.1 of twenty-five or fifty years. In Fair: field County we pay in some townships about twelhe and .one-fourth mills; 10 Township No. 1 we are paying about fou'ten and one-fourth mills.~- A. levy of fourteen and one-fourth mills for a peiod of fifty years would amount to a complete confiscation of property. It necessarily follows that after any young man becomes twenty-one years old, if by diligent application to busi ness for the first ten years he succee Is in accumulating one thousand dollars worth of property, under the present high system of taxation he would pay out another thousand dollars in taxes by the time he gets to be eighty years old. If a man at twenty-one years of e.4d Lgggdcps,v.Iihl es to~bi s'venty years old, he will have p dd out an amount in taxation equal- to the total value of his property. Abraham Lincoln said, "You e C Ifool all the people awhile, you can fool otollte people all the time,." cc omollte people all the time." oucn That expression is very applicable to our system .of taxation. Y.ou cannot tax all the, property owners - of this State unnecessarily high for an indefi nite period of timne for the support sof our State colleges when some are rc ceiving no benefit and therefore harve no pecuniary .interest in their, maia tainance. Unnecessary taxation is unjust exactions from the fruit,. of human labor. Any levy shoul be economically . administerd, and the power of taxation should be most e-n tiously and prudently exercised lest it be used excessively and to the detri ment of the taxpayers. It has been well said that every dollar taken from the citizen unnecessarily, for the sup port of our government, is that much taken from him unjustly, which wil invariably bear most iniquitous results In Township No. 1 we are paying five mills for school purposes, three mil!s under the new ::onstitution and t wo mills addi'ional, which was voted by the citizens of the community. Pre-. vious to the adoption of our late cor stitution, I advocated the plan of levy ing a tax on the property of the white people of the State for the educitn of the white children, and make it optional with the negroes and Lt them decide whether os: not they would lrny a tax on their property for the educa tion of their children. In other wonis, I believe in levying a tax on the p-- p erty of each race, for the educatton' of their children. [ do not behieve in taxibg the landowners and property holders of our 8:ats for the education of the colored race. I do not think it is right to take the property of one man by process of taxation and appro priate it for the benefit of aaother. If te negroes, by a vote of_ their race, decide to levy a tnx on their property and also vote atn additional capitauion tax for the education of their rdce, then let them petition the Legislature :o ubit an amendment to the peop'e of the $'ate and let the people mn :d fy -the contiutionl, so that the tax f'r the edicatin: of the~ negroOs will be co. lected froi their property, and lytL the wfite race' do ligewie. I belheve it jwould give more general satisfaction. ,I shall not say anything more on ,that subjet. I am not a member of :the Legisature, and I hesitate to make 'any suggestions, but if I nre in a -position I would make a stretnuous 'effort to have ihese suggestions sub mitted to the people, so that the:y might be properly adjusted in the in "terest of all the pieople. Another rc:le e son why I have t'esitated to write this e is that I have no desire to put myseli 0 n a position that would lead any one e to believe that I amn playing the role o: 1 a critic. Then again, some may thinlk L that if it was an election year I would not write it, for 'fear it would not be orlar and might hurt my chances o1 success. tha is not th a c- at ali; I would advocate it just zealously if I knew that 1 would be i the minority. If I never get an office il I compro mise my convictions I'll never get it. The ideas set forth herein are my honest convictions. I believe that any man who aspires to any position in the gift of the people ought to be a man with a policy and convictions and have tbe courage to aspress his couvictions. I have but little confidence in any man's sincerity of purpose who waits - until he sees what ideas are popular and then proclaims them from tEe housetops as though he bad advocated them lo! these miany years. I have thought it would not be inappropriate to write this while the Legislature is - in session. Perhaps it will attract the attention of some of the legislators and be ins:rntneutal in btinging the sub; ject under their consideration. Robi. R. Jeffar,s. Feasterville, Feb. 10,-1897.
