Goantc] Correspondence. DOIMtOll I*. <). JOE PP.INCE. The present week, lu this part of th?? County, appears to lu- devoted unduly to the pastime of moving. Only those who ure rieh, and therfore under no ne cessity to oluiugc tiled' pl.?i c of iibodc, are deprived of this luxury. I oner heard a man say that the Itel: was too good for poor folks, there i sueh a luxury in scratching. Hut you can't deprive thom of moving. I nm glad to timi that the good old fashion of running away from H?ht, to come in vogue again. A few of our citizens have resorted to the expedient, and it has worked well, so fur, i. e. for the neighborhood. Everything ?ow must bend to tin- germ theory of Disease. Accordingly I lind it stated in a Medical Journal that Prof. Mcartdou has discovered thu gerin of kleptomania. It is avery small thing and in the ahapof an Intorogratlon point. Heneo it is called the "Interrogativo Mlcroooceus." The learned Professor lins ben carrying on ?onie intorcbttu ex perimenta in tito way of Mootihitions, I but was forced to suspend, as somehow or other his pr?par?t ?ons got scattered, and the whola tow 11 turned out to ?teal ing. So we }to. Mr. .lohn Kiddle has a very intel!!- j Rent cow. Slie will go to the person moil tree, lock her horn? on it, ami shake down thc persimmons, Just like white folks.

This Do pot, with thc town that will spring up around it, will in a Ow years represent many thousand dollars of taxable prop erty, but yet Greenville must have It all just because Laurens slept. .Fohn Shockley says that when a man moves .nit nil the railroad ii inst lukes ihre?' daj s to learn to smoke elgar about ns gracefully as any body.

A ropulnr mooting of Lisbon Partners' Club, i ce. buh I8?5, met to discuss Hie "Beat mode of preventing lund from washing," and waa opened l?y Mr. shaw who asked that the soe rot H ry read un essay of Mr. Woll'ord, of spartan! uri:, on Terracing. Mr. Shaw then spoke of the boilOtltS he hud received from bis tei ru?es t his year; that it Wita the way to sa\ 0 our lands ?nd CHUSO them to re tain moisture.

Mr. If oldies said that in traveling over the country to day, it was a sad thing n- soo how badly tho and was washing: that terracing or something else would have to be done to ship it. Mr. Young thought that terracing waa better than ditching, u? rows next to the terrace would make about ns much as if there was a row bel wren. Dr. Anderson said he was pleased with Mr. Wolford's essay, and that WO ought to glvo terracing a trial; thal be bad stopped washes by hauling litter ami putting it in Incipient gollies, as lime)) ?is n wagon luad in a place norona thegullv, and ploifgll Just as i f thee waa no'litter there.

Head between the lines it means, l take it, tba! none, except tho "whiskey Inti re !'' and men of no standing, believe that prohibition is a failure in Laurens. "Sume good people pll/./.Ied i 11 understand exactly what be means," says the Iii raid. "None uro so blind ns those Hint will not see." The Herald will say ?'i> Us own behalf, that Mr. Johnson's as sertions regurding the workings of the prohibition law In this place certainly have that otToot," that ls, to help th?? whiskey men. tn 'his language the secret conies out. I Tho Herald does not Uko fora tem-j poru?ee man to frankly confess the unpleasant truth, that prohibition is a falure. My friend says "tell the Irulb." Hut when I tell it, be hold 1 interf re with my friend's pet scheme! I st? ?> ?>n his corn-! There is much truth In the old say ing that "the truth is what burts."

Nor h..?ve I .--'.(ipped th."..<.. 1 have eon versed willi a number of ludio who frankly confess that from what they eau learn "prohibition does not prohibit." The Herald drowning man like, catches .it ->t raws, "Twenty four" men thought that public sentiment had md en forced tho law against the illegal solo of liquors; but the Heraldgets some of them tn admit that a jury, w ith sulllcienl proof w ould convict .in every instance. I never said that ajury would not convict men who violate the statute. Hut I say that juries must have proof! ? W hence must come the evidence'.' This is a local matter. The people of Laurens County at largo are iud going to meddle with violations of law here, livery crime i- an of fense against the community; Lut Hint individual orset of individuals directly injured arc expected tupul the wheels of government in tiper, ation.

We w i re told Iben that whatever mighl have been the elToet in 'SI here, whatever mighl be the ofToel elsewhere, that HUM law would be enforced strictly this\ lime. The Herald repeatedly refer- to the two indictments now pending1 in the Courts of (lenerul Sessions, I).?es the Herald know that an indictment is only a charge sus tained by "suftlcicnl pinoi" not io convict, but to show that the st;itt bas made nut a prima facie case? lt tines not follow that the defen dants will be convicted; for the State may fail to furnish "sullicient j proof" to satisfy a jury of guilt. Omitted thal the parties are found guilty, then at tho end of thirteen months we will have two convic tions mit of ten thousand violations, (?'ranted, too, that every offense against (he State law shall be pun- { ?shed, what becomes of our town or dinance.
