You may put down, as Nos.4 and 6, Mr. Dock Copeland to Miss Mattie Owens, ami Mr. duly Tribble to Miss Emmi Griffin. There has been much of good buding in our town during the Christmas holi days, and many kind remembrances of the omi of tho year 1885 are treasured up in the hoarts of a great many of our people, both children and adults. There have boon quito a number of visitors in Clinton during the holidays, among them arc* Miss Jennett McFar land of ChoraW, Miss Mildred Part'Otl of Darlington, Miss Anna Robinson of Willlamston, and Miss Alice Boozer of (Jreonwood. Kev. Mr. Millard has also given a series of bis popular lei tures, lo small but delighted houses. Clinton has had, during tho past few days, (piite a number of entertainments. Frst, the Dramatic Club gave, in Owen's Hall, a light temperance drama and farce. Both pieces were well rendered and well patronized. Then thc Ladies' Aid Society furnished an oyster supper and fostlval at tho Orphanage, which netted out something moro than a hun dred dollars. Two dances came In, in the meantime, and all was fully enjoyed. Tho Christmas tree, in thc Baptist Church, was so well attended that not only every child got somethimr, but Hie pastor and teaeheos were remembered in a way most gratifying to their feel feelings. Tm-: A DVERTIBKH oven, was not over looked, but wus remembered in the shape of a splendid full suit of clothes, coat vest and pants, which were sent in toils Clinton correspondent by one of Clinton's noble-hearted insrehants Hush Blakoly. DOKltOII I*. <). JOE PRINCE. The ancient Oreeks had a law thal cv cry man who held an office, was not en titled to election, or to hold any other ellice, or to receive any public honor, w hatever, HU he had made a full return of his official acts, and all had boon In vestigated and approVOCi. This was ropuirod and expected to bc done amcdiatoly after the close of his torin of OinoO. It was a good low, and we, of this progressive age, would do well to repeat. It ls getting to be very difficult, and in some InstailCOS, impos sible, for our County officors to give bonds with good and sufficiont surity. Simply because good men will hesitate long before signing a paper which must necessarily stand against them for more than half a lifetime. There is no excuse for it. The acts of every official should bo thorougherly investigated just as soon as his term expires. Such a law in the past would have saved malty good menin this country, who are now in bankruptsy -or something worse such a law should not only upplp to public officers, so-called, but to every position of trust. Nothing encourages dishon esty so much asa good opportunity, To-day (tho 8th) they arc laying tho side track at (?ruy's Depot, And at this time the snow is falling much faster than the cross-ties, or the blows of the tilg hammers. Christmas was two weeks tooearly. It is a sorry Christmas with out snow Mr. .Ins. P. (Jruy and family are agasn onsoonseod in their old home at this placo, Just as natural ns life. Mr. B. C. Gray Is also boro, alive and well. Mr. Harrison Suinorel, on Saturday, the 2d inst., while cleaning a well for Mr. Newton Dial, was struck on the head by u rock which fell from Hie top of the well. He was knocked insensible and badlv hurt, but it is thought now that he 3 iii recover. A little three year old son of J. C. Willis, on 1 he Otb inst., got imbi of a bot tle of Carbolic Acid. He managed to re move the cock, und when discovered had thc open end of the bottle in bis mouth. Tho poison, however, was unduly SOllId, and he received no further injury than a slight burn of the mouth and tongue. And still it snowoth, And tho wind it blowoth. And whither lt gooth Nobody knowetb. "It ain't ovory one can be a Poet. No moro than a sheep cnn be a goat." CROSS HILT,. MACK.

I/'IC Chicago WtvaUl, "I HIM going te ?wear of Now Year's" said iv ne w&papor man, who docs railroads and night police, as llO dropped Into ene of Porter Pal mer's cushioned seuls in tho ro tunda of the hotel. "No, boys, I've got some ideas on this business of tippling. If you wish to publish it yoa're welcome to do lt. My pro prietor is a drinker himself in a small way, and he might say he had not engaged me to write tem perance lectures. Hut I'll tell you what I've l>e?n thinking about ami overybody ought to think of it. That's the cost. Now, I've got too much sense to take up the temper ance racket from any sentimental idea, nor will I prate about the moralistic side of it. Leave that to the platform cranks und blue ribbon idiots. My standpoint is one of practicality. What does tho tippling habit cost? I have been a moderate drinker for twenty-five years. I don't think the habit is growing on me. 1 know I am in no datlger of the gutter or tram phood. My health is perfect, my mind clear ami active, und physi cally and mentally considered, my seven or eight drinks a day or more on occasion, seem bo have done my no harm. Hut I nm damnable poor?" With tlita tho newspaper mun ?trothed lils legs and looked at his friends, who were all his juniors. They hardly realized his poverty, for ho was weil krossed and known to be a gentleman. "Fact," he said, "I am poor and in debt. Of course you know tho cruft does nst got princely incomes, bul they get enough to save some thing from. The. difficulty is not so much lack of income as luck of prudence In bundling it. Do you know what led me into this train of thought V I'll tell you. 1 went into one of the best saloons the other morning to got a cocktail. I was a little snaky and needed it. I had just twenty-live cents. I got my ten cents chungo, and then leaned up against the rail und looked around. I saw pictures that were elegant. I saw mirrors reflecting and duplicating them. I saw tho most magnificent cut glass and silverware. I saw wood carvings, mnrble tilings, gorgeous tapestries, supurb frescoes, and, speaking to n j mug man present, the barman said timi it lind cost nearly ..f<?(?,<llld to supply this one phlCO With tho.-" gorgeous things. I looked for th? proprietor, ll? was not in just then, but his mag nificent family sleigh stood out side. It here tufted plumes and the horses wore banged tails and Rus sian arches of silver gongs. The coachman wore a green cont with great pot. metal disks for buttons, and a huge sealskin cup tiiat cost moro than mino. And then, as 1 looked I begun to think. I turned to the bar ami said inwardly, 'I'll put up the other ten (Mints and get a cocktail.' The young man who made it attracted my attention. He was one of four wdio was deal ing out the brains poison. Ho wus young, stalwart. His dress wis immaculate, bis linen faultless, his bands soft and white, his whole ap pearance suggested the freshness of curly spring. In his polished shirt gleamed a gorgeous diamond. Upon his little linger blu/.ed anoth er. 1 looked at this chap, and I begun to reflect that I bud spent my last ten cents, and would be compelled to borrow to seo mo through the week. Then reflection went still further, und I asked my self how much of my poor salary went to keep up this Btyle, und how much interest 1 had in those dia monds and furs and sleigh ami bang-tailed horses? Then 1 began to look ut the profits of the business, and remembered that there were sixty Hverage drinks to tho gallon of whiskey, and that the avorngo bar whiskey costs tlireo dollars a gallon. At fifteen cents a drink this diamond bedizened gentleman behind the bar took in nine dollars for something that cost three dol lars, to say nothing of added water. And then I remembered how fow of those gent lon n n had even a cent to spend on anything but their sel fish pleasures, how they wore the Anent of clothing, tho costliest of underwear, silken and cashmere, how their shoes and boots cost from $12 to $2U u pair, und how l had to tramp around with soft patches. Ami the moro I thought the mad der I got, and I have made up my mind to leave no more of my money with theso gentlemen who life so easily and luxuriously, and whose gougeous livelihood costs them not an hour's worry. Others may and will order drinks, no doubt, but from me the saloons und their gor geous proprietors have got their last dollor. Thia is my little Christ mas temperance lecture, boys. Try and profit by it. -In tho matter of business fail ures In tho United States, the figures for I88? ure highly satisfac tory, us compared with tnsoooftho previous your, lt is true, that in point of numbers they show very little decrease--from 10,008 to 10, 0,'17-but the deeroase In liabilities is very marked, ibero being $2:i<), 000,000 for 1884 and $124,000,000 for 1886, u reduction of over (100,000, tiiio, or nearly one-half.

Religious Persuasions of Our Law-Makers. Baptist Courlor. An esteemed friend and brother .sends us the stat ?sties to show the religious make up of the General Assembly of South Carolina, which may interest some of our readers. The Senate is composed of .'15 members, who are classified ns fol lows: Baptists, to; Methodists, 9; Presbyterians, 6} Episcopalians, 4; Lutherans, :i-making a total of 31 church members, while l are not connected with any church. Of these four, ?it least two of them tire favorably inclined to the Bap tists. The House of Representa tives ls composed of 123 members, (then? is one vacant .sent), divided in religious sentiment as follows: Baptists, 81: Methodists, 2?; Pres byterians, 17; Episcopalians, 12; Associate Reformed Presbyterians, 6j Roman Catholics, 5j Lutheran .'1-making a total of 90 church member, while 24 ure not connected with any church. In the Senate and House there ure 130 church members, or more than four fifths of the entire Legislature, which fact will doubtless make a favor able comparison with any other .State. It is grtifying that so largo a proportion of our law makers ?ire those who delight in Hie law of Cod, and tho mensure of their responsibllty is in accord ance with their profession as the followers of Him who is able to make them wise in all things. The Donkey Wouldn't Bray. Once upon a time a donkey fell into a very deep hole, and after nearly starving, caught sight of a passing fox and implored the stran ger to help him out. "I nm too small to aid you," said the fox, "but I will give you some good advice. Only a few rods awayjia a big, strong elephant. Cull to bim ami he will get you out in ?i jiffy." After the fox lind gone the don key thus reasoned: "1 am very weak for want of nourishment. Every move I make is just so much additional loss of strength. If I raise my voice to call the elephant I shall be weaker yet. No, I shall not waste my substance that way. It is the duty of the elephant to como without calling?' So the donkey settled himself back nnd eventually starved to death. Long afterward tho fox on pas sing the bole saw within a whiteh ed skeleton, and remarked; "If it bo that the souls of are transmigra ted into men, that donkey Will be come one of those merchants who cnn never lilford to advertise."
