It was not more than forty feet wide, but $ it was quite terrifie. It blew a hole through the chimney of Mr. Lewis fi Perkins' house and the bricks fell on the hearth. Trees were blown down around Colony church, but the building es-h caped injury, as it was not directly in the path of the tornado. The church was shaken violently. The path of the t tornado resembles a clearing made for a railroad. Crops were not damaged much. $100 Reward. $100.

Below also will be found a list of the delegates: Gentlemen: We have met here for the pur pose of considering the various interests per taining to the material progress of the colored race and the State So in this intance our iews should not be so contracted as to sup pose that our meeting here is merely to pr orit our race only. but we must view the matter . touching the interest of our white brethren Both races have a common interest that is identical and inseparable. For instance, if we would do an act that would affect or de stroy the interest of the white race, it would o perate equally destructive to the interest of the colored race. All are in the same boat nd most swim together or sink together. Therefore, the sooner we recognize this fact ad un ite with the white people of this south land to aid in building up its resources in every conceivable way, the bctt er it will be for us all. We are strictly a laboring factor of the South, whose climate is temperate, congenial ad productive or variety or staples; and it has an extensive comnmercial advantage for importation and exportation,to foreign marts, Upon this fact we should not confine our selves to one kind of industry hut should en gage in all the veried industries that the coun try would consistently admit ot. Our white friends have no objection to our development, but they are in hearty accord with our ad vancement in any usetul enterprise. Let us then begin the work of enterprises and let our white friends aid -xs. They are morally bound to extend us helplrg band. so may God bless the indi',.rial efforts of the race. A. E.

Th.e convention appreciated their hospi tality and passed a resolution express ing its thanks. The attendance on Thursday was very good, and on Friday the church could not hold the congregation, which are splendid evidences of an interesting meeting. NOTES FROM EXCELSIORI.

NOBODY CAN SHUT HIS MOUTH. A Card from Col. WV. J. Talbert Acknowi edging that he Did Try to Answer senator Butler in his A beence. COtLUmIa. S. C., July. 30.-Col. W. J. Talbert has sent the following to this office for publ-cation: To the Editor of The News and Cou rier: Seeing by the papers that Gen. Butler said that he would have replied to me if he had been present, I desire to say that he came to Prosperity the day before the meeting and asked the privi lege of the committee to reply to me. Now, it is passing strange that he should have made such arequest, when I had not been mentioned in connec tion with the discussion. It seems that the distinguished Senator dlesired a spat with me. Then it is more strange still that he should after making his speech and salivating all over the Alli ance people and their demands, leave the stage of action and not listen to what I had to say, and even be followed by the newspaper reporters so that no report was even made of mxy speech, and then charge me or the committee with breaking the faith. I wish to say that I was invited there to talk AI"ance, and what 'I said I am responsible for and would have been more than willing for Gen. Butler or any body else to have heard and replied, and if he had wished could have done so, as he was only a half or three quart ers of a mile away, and left on the same train that I did. No man, sir, shall get up in my presence and talk about driving a sixteen-horse wagon through the Alliance demands (and he no wagoner either) and expect me to be silent; and I will also say that had my distinguished friend been present I woLld have said a good deal more, (of course in a resp)ectful manner,) but without being egotistical I said enough to spoil every track he made with that sixteen-horse team. I showed to the crowd that he dodged the issue entirely and (lug up a dead issue; that he helped to bury himself and gro)wled over the decayed bones (the Vance billi and did not touch the living issues at all. In conclusion allow mec to say that I do not expect justi ? at the hands of tubt newspapers, but I will be for the boys face to face and tall the truth, and no earthly power shah close my motuth. W.
