Last Tuesday was a grand day in Charleston. Thousands of peo ple gathered there from all parts of the Union to do honor once more to the greatest of all Ameri can Statesmen, John C. Calhoun. r; It was the occasion of the unveil ing of the monument erected to his memory. Hon. L. Q. C. La mar delivered the oration on the occasion. It occupied three hours in delivery and was an eloquent tribute to the .life and works of "the dead Statesman. Calhoun has been dead thirty-seven years. Many distinguished gentlemen were present from other States. The day will be one long remem bered in South Carolina, and the name of John C. Calhoun will last in the memories of the peo ple of this country through gene. rations yet unborn, to the end of recorded time. Mr. W. J. McKerrall has retired from the Greeenville Newcs having sold his interest to A. B. Williams, the former proprietor, who will again be sole editor and proprietor. President J. M. McBride of the South Carolina College has accepted the Presidency of the University ol Tennessee, and will resign his posi tion as President of the South Caro lina College. This will be a loss to the South Carolina College, as;Pres ident McBride made an excellent President. S We have received the first copy of the Clintton Enterprise, a new paper printed at Clinton by I'. B. Crews ~E & Co. Messrs. J. B. Parrott and J. T. Crews are the editors. The paper S is neatly printed and seems to have r the encouragement of the business men of Clinton from a glance at thE advertising columns We wish the new enterprise much success. .* The investigation of the Air SLine train robberies, an account of which we gave last week, has been in progress during this week in Greenville. A large quantity of the goods has been recovered and several 'persons bound over to the Court of Ses sions for trial-either for taking part in the robberies or for re. ceiving stolen goods. Solicitor Orr, whose views we S publish in this paper, on the subject of lynching, thinks the trouble lies mainly in the techni calities and cumbersome machi nery of our criminal procedure. An idea has gone abroad, fromx some cause, that the machinery of justice is too slow and there are too many dodges and loopholes b' 'trough which criminals can es. cape, for it to be depended on tc give justice to those guilty oi heinous crimes. What the trou ble is we are not prepared jyti now to say. Of one thing we are certain, that any law that is not supported by a public sentiment which demands its enforcement, is a dead letter and had just as -- well not be on the Statute book. Our local cotemnporarv, the Obser ver, thinks . mob law is the out. growth of a constant violation of the plain provisions of the Consti tution by our law makers and of ficers and those in authority. .Let us have a healthv public Ssentiment that condemns mob law, that condemns violation of the provisions of the Constitution in our legislature, by our officers, and in terms unmistakable,'and yvon will see these things stop. Those in authority try to be or the popular side. The mob is moved by the wave of public sen timent, and so on to the end of the chapter. Change your public sentiment and you rectify the whole thing. We rise to remark that Mr. Cleve. land-President Cleveland -is a sen sible man. Bright thought, ehi? We are led to make this remark because we believe he knows how to hold his tongue. He lets other people talk (o: Scourse he does) about him, and goet on bout his business as if he had ~'nothing to dowith it. Andhelhasn't, K ith their talk. But the newspapei reporters are so anxious for him to talk more, and when he won't they get somebody to talk for him. lie was hardly elected before there was talk of his re-election. And that has been going on ever since, one report L saying he would accept a second al term, another report saying he would t not: Mr. Cleveland saying nothing. o Lately comes an interview with Mr. o Cleveland, through somebody else. i, to the effect that he would not un der any circumstances have a second term; and almost before that is pub- e lished there comes a denial of this d report, to the effect that Mr. Cleve land did not commit himself on this u subject. All this is for sensation. S As we said before, we believe Mr. it Cleveland is a sensible man, and is T not talking much about such things. It is time enough to discuss these things. Mr. Cleveland is nothing P but a man, and the Presidency of h these United States is a right nice , little office; and when the time comes, s( if he is thought to be the most avail- A able man, we believe he can be in- e duced to try it again. P n Politics is a very queer thing. - tl AN IMPORTANT DECISION. it We print elsewhere an important b decision by the Supreme Court, on in the rights of married women. We c fail to see how the Court reached the n decision it did, but nevertheless it has so decided, and for the time be- r ing, that decision is the law of the a land. By this decision, a mortgage h of land given by a married woman cannot be foreclosed unless it ap pears that the money it secures was ti for the benefit of her separate es- a tate. In other words, a mortgage w given by the wife to secure the debt 7 of her hasband is no good, and can not be collected. It does seem to us that the right to sell or alien her k separate estate would carry with it 1 the right to mortgage it, but the Su- a preme Court decides otherwise and we bow to the ruling. According to s this decision the custom adopted among many business men, when the title to real estate was in the wife, of having the wife sign and be- A come surety for the husband, is use less and will be of no avail, for the Supreme Court says she has not the legal right to pledge her separate es- g tate, by mortgage or. otherwise, for any debt except for the benefit of her separate estate. This decision will cause quite a S revolution in business. circles. We g believe if women are allowed to own 0 separate estates, that their legal ~ status should be the same as the ~ husband, and if the present law can- a not be so construed it should be o amended at once. The wives are be- a ginning to own all the real estateb anyway. TilE GEORGIA AND CAROLINA XIDLAND. e The general opinion is that theq trip of Senator Butler and President Mitchell to New York will result in. another consolidation-and in all1 probability the right one at last. c Senator Butler, as our readers know, is one of the leading men, if not the leading man of the great projected Charleston, Cincinnati & Chicago Railway, which is to cross the Charlotte and Atlanta Air Line at Black's Station, in York t County. And this very point, it will be remembered, seems to be consid ered the most elicrible crossing for the Georgia and carolina Midland. Edgefield Chronicle. We do not like so much comibina tion and consolidation and such a long, ,name but still hope the road is 1 alright and will be built. Long name roads have never seemed to us to ~ progress very fast in this State, but we do not know that the name has anything to do with it. We believe if Col. Mitchell had gone on with his ( narrow gauge we would have had ' our road to Augusta sooner than we will get it now, but we will watch de-t velopments. WOIAN'S SUFFARAGE AS IT WORKS. "The secretary of State of Massa chusetts~has issued a report showing, to what extent women have taken ad vantage of the law passed in 1880 permitting them to vote at school 1 board elections. In 1881, 1,5317 ladies voted, and in 1886, 1,911. The largest possible female vote in the State is :340,000, and hence it would ~ apear that after six years less than six women out of every thousand take the trouble to record their voes."C These figures show how little the women care about the right of suf- r frage, and in South Carolina we be lieve thle proportion of white women who would take the trouble to record r their votes would be much less than t these figures. No, the women don't care anything about voting. They c vote their husbands and that is i enough for them. Ditingushed )Jen in a Street Fight. S-r.

Miller, about 45 fo ears of age, who lived on the planta- so on of Lark Swearengin, Esq., in the mediate Trenton section, died from di le effects of a stab inflicted by Willie wearengin, a son of Mr. Lark Swearen- wc in, aged about nineteen years. Cor-, 3 ner Johnson held an inquest on the une day; and the facts developed S1 owed that young Swearengin did in- an it the fatal wound. Nor did young th wearengin pretend to deny it. He pr nly claimed to have acted absolutely yo nd literally in self-defence. And we or elieve him. And moreover, even be- tic re thc inquisition, the Sheppai d Bros. ad been retained to defend him. How gr t terly, how unprecedentedly unaecount- se: ble, therefore, under these circumnstan- be es, was the verdict of the jury of in- hi uest: That the deceased came to his eath fronm a wound inflicted by a sharp istrument in the hands of some party the jury unknown. This jury was omposed of the following well known se itizens: Geo. W. Turner, foreman; J. C( . Norrie, E. L. Ryan, Ed. Harrison, h . L. Posey, J. E. Loriek, L. J. Court- de ey, B. J. Harrison, W. A.

All ordi .ry remedies iailing, we called our family rysician, who attempted to cure it; but it read with almost incredible rapidity, until e lower portion of the little fellow's person )m the middle of his back down to his = Lees, was one solid, rash, ugly, paintul, -' otched and malicious. We had no rest at ght, no peace by day. Finally, we were ad sed to try the CUTICCEA REMEDIES. The'ef- _ et was simply marvelious. In three or four " aeks a complete cure was wrought, leaving e little fellow's person as white and healthy though he had never been attacked. In = y opinion. your valuable remedies sgved his. e, and to-day he is a strong, healthy child, rfecfiy well, no repetition of the disease w,ing ev,-cscurred GEO. B.
