AULL, p rorietrs. WM. g. HOU7SEAL, } Ie NEWBERRY. S. C, THURSDAY, JAN. 5. 1888. The Charleston Sunday DiTspatch comes to us with the new year in an enlarged form. It is now an eight page paper, full of news, bright and spicy in its editorials. We congratulate our cotemporary on its success. The Columbia Bleau of the Augusta C7ronicle has been discontinued, and Mr. B. C. Sloan, who was manager. will be added to the editorial staff of the Columbia Register. Mr. Sloan has proven himself a good newspaper man and will be quite an acquisition to the staff of the Register. The city of Columbia will hold an election in a few days to vote on the question of guaranteeing the interest on the bonds to be issued for the com pletion of the canal. It is proposed to issue bonds to the amount of $200,000. Columbia now has the canal and she should show her faith in the enterprise by her works. Mr. J. P. McNally, the alleged kid napper of Blackwood, over whom South Carolina and Georgia had so much correspondence, and came near going to battle in order to settle the comity of States, has passed to that land "whence no traveller returns," and will no longer give these sovereign States trouble. McNally and Charles Colvin had a little shooting affair dur ing Christmas week in which McNally received three bullets from Colvin's pistol, and has since died from the wounds. We are not given to writing homi lies on the old year and the new; but with the close of the year it is well to stop for a moment and take a retro spect: consider the mistakes of the past and profit by them in the future. The past year has been a prosperous one for our section in many respects. We have been blessed with good crops and our farmers start with the new year under more favorable and en couraging circumstances than they have for some time past. We should endeavor more and more to practice economy, industry and thrift, and rele gate to the past the ruinous credit sys tem. We will never be a happy and prosperous people until we do. The reported lynching of a white man in Pickens Couinty by negroes, for an alleged outrage on a colored girl, which resulted in the death of the girl, is but natural. We do not favor lynch law, but the man who is guilty of this offense should receive summary justice whether the offense be against white or colored, and whether the of fender be white or black. The trouble with lynch law in such cases is that, amidst the heat and passion of offended justice, it is possible that an innocent man might be taken up and made to suffer. Of course it is always best to let the law take its course, and let jus tice be given by the Courts. We publish in this issue an editorial from the .News and Courier of T ues day, giving some facts in cotton grow ing, taken from the experiments of farmers in various counties in the State. From the annual review made up by the News and Courier it is esti mated that the average yield of cotton in the State is one bale to three acres. From experiments made in this coun ty there is no reason why the average throughout the State should not be much larger than that. If there were less cotton grown on the credit system, and our farmers made their provisions at home, there would be a larger yield per acre. Most farmers plant too large an acreage and do not cultivate it pro p)erly. The experiments published by us last week, of those farmers in No. 6 township, shows what can be done with very little expense and trouble. Mr. Win. M. Werts, who lives near Saluda, in this County, tbld us some time in November that he had at that time ginned and sold twenty-four bales gathered from thirty acres, and he tivas sure of six more, making an av'er age of one bale to the acre. His land, when he went on it two or three years ago, was an old field and considered poor..- What he has done on this land can be done by nine-tenths of our far mers with proper cultivation and management. There is little. doubt that cotton raising can be made profit able in this country. We need fewer farms worked on the credit system. When this is accomplished we will have better farming and, consequen tly, better crops. Full particulars of the shooting af fair ia Sumter last week may be found in another part of this paper. The trial justice was killed and several wounded. Sometimes we think it was a bad thing to repeal the law on duel ing. It would have been better for these men who had a "personal mat terTto be settled, to have settled it among themselves, wvithou t endanger ing the lives of others, and, in this case, killing an innocent man. These shooting affairs may be expected as long as men have "personal mat ters' to settle and the pistol is carried. These differences they will have as long as they remain human and in their fallen state. The pistol will be ever ready as long as the habit of carrying it is sanctioned by public sen timent. And it will be so sanctioned so long as the men who are leaders in politics and though t, con tinue to carry pistols wvith impunity. You never hear of a man of any prominence being even tried for violating the law against carrying concealed weapons. Possibly they never violate it. The pistol is a for a gentleman to be weighting him self down with. The law against carrying pistols: must be backed up by a healthy pub lie sentiment before it will be el'ective or the habit abandoned. The citizens of Sumter have held a meeting condemning the whole affair, and passed the following resolutions: Resolved, That we, as citizens of Sumter County, deeply deplore the un timely death of Trial Justice George E. Haynsworth, shot down by the law less hand of violence. 2. That we, as citizens of Sumter County, denounce the practice of car rying deadly weapons, concealed or open. 3. That we demand of the public officers of the Stat,-, county and city of Sumter to enforce the law against carrying concealed weapons. 4. 'That we, as citizens of Sumter County, confidently expect from the jury of inquest that they will, in this grave emergency, perform their whole duty fairly and fearlessly. 5. That these resolutions be pub lished by the press of Sumter, Charles ton and Columbia. Harby Charged With the Murder of Haynsworth.

DuBwQUE, December 31.--A nother blizz:ard has been ra,iing here the past twenty-four hours. All freight trains are abandoned and pa .enger trains are working along with double engines and snow-ploughs and are making very little progress. The situation is worse than during the recent storm. The present one extends clear acrozs the State, and is more violent beyond Fort Dodge than on this side. Southern trains are ex pected to arrive without 1osing much time.

Immanuel Presbyterian Church, one of the finest edifices in the city, was totally destroyed by fire at an early hour this morning. Nothing but the hare stone wall is left. Loss $100,001). Insurance $85,000. The building was erected in 1S73 at a cost of $200,000, The organ was valued at 1:t,000. A tierce blizzard was raging at the time and it was with the greatest difficulty that the lire en gines reached the scene. No ca-uaities occurred. "The Messiah" was given in the church last evening before a large audi ence, and it is believed that the tire was caused by over-taxing one of the fur naces in order to' heat the great build ing. A policeman discovered the llames bursting from one of the windows, shortly after 3.39 A. 31., and gave the alarm promptly, but the fire lhad] evi dently been burning for hours, and the building was soon a mass of fiames, from the basement to the battlemeVs of the tall stone towers. The entire city was brilliantly illuminated, the north ern pdrtion being enveloped in a shower of sparks and fire brands. CHICAGO BLOCKADED. CHIcAGO, December 31.-The bliz zard that howled in this city yesterday afternoon drove almost everybody off the street and nearly blockaided traffic throughout the city. The street cars struggled along at long intervals. In the evening the mails wvere nearly all from four to five hours behind time. The streets were dleserted at 10 o'clock, and at that hour the itensity of the storm was almost unprecedented in this loca tion. The wind shifted into the east and was blowing at the rate of thirty miles an hour. Southern trains were also greatly delayed, and at one time were completely blocked by the snow drifts.

Secretary of State Leitner, Chairman o the Sinking Fund Commission, Construes the Law for the Benefit of the Public. COLrMLiA, Janary 2.-The recen Act of the Legi-lature in relation to for feited lands, delinquent lands atdl th (ollection of taxe- hould he of tuel intere-t to the public, as by it 7,64 pices of land, in which probably fifteet or tw enty thousa:nd persons are interest ed, are tran-ferretl from the books of th sinking fund commission to the ta: books of the respective counties, am the commission ie eipowered toozue fo the back taxes, which they have beet tiable to do heretofore. There are of the delinquent list 914,852 acres of suel land, valued at $3,000,000, and on whiel $:3ju.09 taxes arc due. The following i! thee cons"truction o this Act as interirete(d by Secretary o: State Leitner, ehairinani of the z"inkin; fund commtthi-sion. By the Act approved December 24 1S7. all lands upon the forfeited lan list of date of Decemober 24, 18S7, :ore re stored to the tax duplicate of lSS ant forieitor or former owner is required t< pay the levy of 18S7 and all subsequen levies to county treasurer, but all taxe; back of the levy of 187 remain still : tiebt and lien upon the land, and are t< be as hereto:ore paid to the secret:ry o State, as agent of the sinking: fund coi mission. For the collection of thes' back taxes the contmui,sioners of thl sinking fund are 'autlorized in suel cases and to sucth extent as they ma: deem most advantageous to the State t bring an action as for debt again-t t h former owners, of any person or ptrson having any legal of equitable interest i; said land, for the recovery of the ful amount of all taxe=, costs and penaltie accrued to and including the levy of 188 upon any land uponethe forfeited listsa the time of the passage of this Act, (December '4, 1SS7.) "Any judgement obtained in such actions shall have lien upon the lands respectively upo which such taxes, costs and penaltie shall have accrued, and the same sha: be sold tinder execution by the sheril' i due course of law, Knd the proceeds 4 any sueh sale shall be applied first to th payment to'the sinking fund comtnissio of the taxes, costs and pe'rtlties charge against the property, and next to th payment of the taxed (O-ts in the sul and expenses of the sale. and the sul plus. if any there be, shall be paid ove to the former owners or parties in inte est as their interest may appear." Thus, though the :inking fund con mission cannot now sell as heretofor for the back taxes, costs and peualtio lands uponl the forfeited land i.t at dat of December 24, 1887, still they may, b obtaining judgment in a suit as fo debt, have land sold by sheriff under e ecution for collection of all back taxes costs and peialtie-, to and iucludin levy of 18SG, and for all costs of suit. S former owners, or parties having an legal or equitable interest whatever i lands on forfeited land list, are urge to send in at once, to W. Z. Leitnel Secretary of State and agent of sinikin f1mId commission, application and mone to pay up back taxes, costs and pena ties, and to have laud discharged of th debt and lien thereon for back taxer costs and penalties. The coutmissioner of the siukiig fund are authorized t hear and determine, upon sat,sfactor proof, the petition of any tax pay praying relief on the ground that a taxes, costs and penalties back of 1ev of 1887 haye been paid, or that portioi of such t'axes have been paid, and a offer to pay the balatnce accompanied b the sum admitted to be owing, anid th: sinking fund commission shall gran such relief as in the pkcemises may b just. The sinking fund commission is furthe authorized in their discretion to coni pound with the former owners, thei neirs or assigns for all unpaid taxes costs and penaltues back of the levyc 1887, at one-half part of the whole sil so due, without penalties, prov.ided th moey is paid into the hands of th sinkinig fund commission before the es piration of one year from date of D: eember 24, 1887. The sinking fund commission at merely authorized and not requiredt compound at one-half of the back taxe without penalties; and in the same set tion there is another proviso that thi sinking fund con.missioni in their di: cretion mnay by suit, as for debt an judgment of court and execution ati sale by sheriff', collect the full amout of all back taxes, costs and penaltiest and including the levy of i886 out of an: atd Ott forfeited land list ; therefor parties petitioniing for a settlement an' iischarge of the debt dtte the State ati lieu ott tand, at less thatn the fullamoun of all back taxes, costs and pettalties du on land, must send to the Secretary State, in cash or post-office order o check, the sum at which they petitiont settle, and a petition settintg fort clearly the special factte in each partiet lar case upon which the petitioni for r4 duction is based.

GREENVILLE, January 2.-Facts have t just reached this city of a sensational - affair at Central, Pickens County,wh ich ri, furnisbes, perhaps. the first instance in hi t this section of the hanging of a white 3 man by negroes. Last Friday an inquest was held by Trial Justice P. D. Garvin ti: - over the body of a negro girl about 13 A years old. who died undercircumstances o C that gave rise to suspicion of criminal assatlt. Investigation contirnied the , r suspicioni, and the physician who made tI the examination reported that the girl i t had died from the efects of a criminal of [ assatdt. P1 i Tie evidence implicated a white nman named Waldrop, a laborer on Mr. F. J. [ Pelgea's farm, in Anderson County. ti I Waldrop. who was a half-witted young I fellow and unmarried, protested hiz in- ti nocenee, and he wa; arrested and or- sl dered to be taken to Pickens and con- d initted to jail. That night two consta- a - bles, D. E. Garvin and a companion, y 1 started to Piekens with the prisoner. ti > They were driving a mule to ;i single b, t buggy and had the prisoner between tl 5 them. At a point on the road, about tl i three-quarters of mile from Central, the 0: > party was halted by a crowd of negroes, it f who demanded the prisoner. Tie con - stables attempted to drive on bit the t( negrces in the crowd held the mule and el a would not allow them to itove forward. , 1 One of the constables jumped out of the tl ' back of the buggy and ran. h J The negroes then took Waldrop from 'i the buggy and carried him oil' into the b s woods. The other constable drove furi- n A ousiy back to Central in the buggy, he- b I ing unable to do anything to protect his t4 s prisoner. Carrying Waldrop off, the & negroes sthot htim a number of times, hut *a t did not succeed in wounding him fatally o Attracted by the noise of the shooting. tt S a party of citizens living in the neigh- A a borhood hastened to the scene. Dr. c, u Folger. Dr. Clayton and Messrs Payne d s and Werner were in the party. On o l their arrival the negroes all fled but one. o They returned in a short while, howev- b er, and ordered the whites who had v e come up to clear away as they were go- ( n ing to tire again. The white men re- v a tired, being unarmed and without any t! e means of deft"nding themselves or the t prisoner, who was, at mro-t, only slight- a lv wounded. q r ~ The gang of negroes then returned, o took Waldrop and hanged him to a tree ( in the woods. When the body was a - found next morning it was seen that the t U shots that had been hed would not a I have produced death. e The affair has aroused the whole con- p Y munity around Central to a white heat a r of excitement. A coioner's inquest over y the body of Waldrop was empanelled on t Saturday, but was adjourned over to d g Tuesday to allow Solicitor Orr's pres- u ence. Solicitor Orr will go to Central in v Y the morning. To the News and Courier's t n correspondent this afternoon lie said lie c d propo-ed to push this case and to use every resource to punish the guilty par- t e ties. It is thought that some white men t Y are implicated in the lynching, and if it s 1 is found so they will be brought to strict v t account. Abundance of Money. - I r COLI3BIA.

CJo.MJ;A, January :;.-There is a ( led hitch in the terms of the Act recei passed by the Legislature entitled". ^t to amend an Act entitled An Act eate a department of agriculture, ing its purposes and duties,' " &c. T tel is simply that there is in the Act etion or clause stating that it should to effect immediately or at any s:pecifi nte. Consequently. under the law t rt cannot go into t"lect intil twenty dh ter its ratifieation. Soie days must st:il elapse before ill be in force, and yet two weeks a .e Legislature, acting under the prov ns of the same Act, elected the memb< the reorganized board of agricultr ovided for by the Act. Of course it ry evident that the lett,-r of the law I t been carried out in this matter a at the ele tion of the n'.'w board was ,al, but . is also plain that the int( n of the Legislature was that the iould take efect immediately, this bei nonstrated by the immediate coml ice of the General Assembly with 1 ovisions of the Act in regard to the eli in of the board. low this matter wot decided if it should be brought bef[ te Courts it is difficult to say. Ther ie actual illegal election on one side. a i the other the evidence that the Leg hire intended it should be legal. A representative of the Bureau cal: -day upon the Governor, who was I airman of the old board, and asked h hether he had noticed the irregularity le election of the new board and whet. a proposed taking any action upon he Governor stated that the matter 1 aen called to his attention and he rec ized that the letter of the law had i een carried out, but that it was evidl him that this was caused by an ov ght in not having a clause put in 1 .et stating that it was to take effect ace, and that it was evident that the ntion of the Legislature was that I .ct should take immediate effect. >nsidered it beyond the bounds of uty to bring tne matter to the attent: f the attorney general, and particula at of place in him to do so, as he 1 een a member of the old board, while 'as not upon the recently elected. ' rovernor further stated that his de< -as always to carry out the intention c Legislature. In reply to a question by the Repor s to whether the Governor was not ired by the new Act to countersign rders for money expeuded by the boa 'rovernor Richardson said that he v nd that he considered that such obli on upon him had only been imposed n oversight of the Legislature. When as a member of the board, and was i osition to know every action that it to nd the object of every expenditure as right and proper that he should ii ic responsibility of countersigning rafts made by the board upon the tre ry, butgow he was required to do t then he had no opportunity of as( iining anything about the transacti< f the board. The Reporter wished to know if, n iat there was a question as to whet Lie board was legally elected, the resp ibility of countersigning such che ould not be greater? The Gover tated that he would assume no respol ility in the matter. and that upon oint of his countersigning checks ,ould act under the advice of the att ey general. Unless the Governor , juitersigns th hbcks the board can get no money. !Nome People WVill Believe This~ Allca/a Constitudion. Zadkiel, the famous London astrc er, has consulted the stars in or< t forecast the events of the prest ear. It is discomforting to learn that l1 ill be distinguished for wars and p ilence, strikes and riots, general hi emperature and abundant crops. For the United States, Zadkiel p ets a grave scandal concerning a ei iet or high government official w lay have to sufler inmprisonmient.3 re to have a high rate of mortal ro lung and kidney diseases, an< reat prevalence of fraud, robbery a rmes of violence.

The Possibilities of the Cotton Crop in South Carolina. 1"lJ icl .a'trs awul Courier, 3d. e- The average prodnetion of cotton per it- acre in South Carolina, last year, as n shown in the Annual Review published to in the Veues -rl Courier yesterday, was le- 158 pounds. or at the rate of about one he bale to three acres. That these figures do no not by any means represent the average -o productive capacity of the cotton:lands in e'd the State, however. searcely requires to Le be said. From one bale on three acres to ys one bale on one acre is a long stride, but . it is a stride which has been accomplished it by many of our intelligent farmers, while ro the record has been raised to two bales Is- per acre by a number of others, and even rs to three bales per acre, it is claimed, by a re particularly skilful few. Is These differences in the amouut of cot as ton produced do not depend, of course, id upon the location and natural fertility of Il- the land. One farm can be made to pro '- duce one or two bales per acre, while an Let other, across the road or fence, will yield ng only a third of a bale. or less careful.cul 1ii- tivation. This is well understood. It is he astonishing, however, to see what can be ec- accomplished, by proper methods, and tld this can be shown by a few examples, >re without attempting to make the record 1I complete. The cus and Courier has nd published, at different times within the '- past few weeks, a number of reports of some successful experiments in cotton ed planting in 1687, which may be summa he -ized brietiv as'follows: im In M1arion County, Mr. Duncan Mc min Laurin, with one mule, made twenty-six ier bales on twenty-five acres, "and a bounti it. "ful supply of corn, fodder, potatoes and ad -peas besides." Mr. George T. Reid, of )g- Chappell's, made ninety bales, besides iot plem y of corn and fodder, on "a five :nt horse farm," the area of which was rot er- more- definitely mentioned. Mr. W. H. he Hardin, Jr., of Chester, made 26%1 bales, *at averaging 450 pounds, on thirteen acres. in- Each one of four farmers in the counties he of Greenville, Oconee and Pickens made He over 1,000 pounds of lint cotton on a sin his gle acre, while others approached very ton nearly to the thousand-pound limit. rly Another interesting experiment was made tad by three leading agriculturalists in New he berry County, but the acreage planted he was not mentioned, and the yield was ire stated in pounds of seed cottoL. so that of no comparison of yield per acre can fairly be instituted. One feature of this record ter is too important to be passed over without re- particular notice. Some of the best re all suits attained were reported from the .rd, counties of Greenville, l'ickens and On -as, cooee. As is well known, cotton cultiva ga- tion has been introduced into these coun-. by ties since the war, but by the aid of com he mercial fertilizers they are enabled to a a take their place now in the front rank of ok, the cotton counties. , it This is-a fair showing indeed for the ive possibilities of the cotton crop of the fu the ture in South Carolina, but -there is more as- yet to be told. Mr. J. A. Peterkin, of his Fort Motte, Orangeburg County, it will er- be remembered by some of our agricultu )ns ral readers, promised last spring to prove that he could "cultivate fifty acres of cot OW -ton with one mule and one laborer, and her -make fifty bales."' In a recent num n- her of the ieekly News and Courier, Mr. ks Peterkin annour.ced the result of his ef ior forts. He failed to make fifty bales, but isi- succeeded in making forty-four bales, the wh"'se average weight was 450 pounds. he Six bales were lost on account of the cat or- erpillars, whose presence rendered two poisonings necessary, and injured the ese crop at least to the extent stated. The fifty acres were "well cultivated by one -mule anid one laborer," no help being employed except to hoe the crop twice. These hoeings cost .$100, and ginning and picking cost $.300 more. The crop was 10- manured by means of cotton seed, or the len seed was exchanged for cotton seed meal aut to be used for the same purpose. This meal, mixed .with acid phosphate, Mr. 488 Peterkin claims, "makes the land self es- "supporting." gh Besides the forty-four bales of cotton, the ploughman and mule made 12,000 re- pounds of peavine hay and peas, the labor on this crop being' performed in five days ho that were too wet to plough in the cotton, ye The total expenses for making and gath ity ering the whole crop was $500, and if the i cotton shall be sold at 10 cents a pound, nd as Mr. Peterkin expects it will yet be sold, be he will clear nearly r81,500 on the work of ),the one la borer and one mule., The cost 'of making the cotton was l'ess than :3 fcents a pound, and Mr. Pet erkin pro rst~ i-es, finally, to tell the readers of the Weely Kews and Courier how he planted re- and cultiv.ated it. SIt is n6t to be expected. of course, that it every farmer in South Carolina will be ab)le to raise three, or even two bales of ?it cotton to: the acre, as a rile; but very nid many more of them ought to find it prac ~nt ticab)le to raise one bale to the acre, and .make all their necessary supplies besides. ptIf only this much of the possibiliteis of rythe cotton crop were realized by all the ycotton producers in the State every year, ethe averag crpwuld be three times as all gein s it was last year, and South Caro d liabeides being the pleasartest State tie inthe Union to live in, would soon be comre the richest.
