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

For instance, if e would do an act that would affect or de- col roy the interest of the white race, it would art perate equally destructive to the interest of i colored race. All are in the same boat id most swim together or sink together. herefore, the sooner we recognize this fact d unite with the white people of this south nd to aid in building tip its resources in ery conceivable way, the better it will be - ir us all. sc] We are strictly a laboring factor of the , ath, whose climate is temperate, congenial ,. d productive of variety of staples; and it ie; is an extensive commercial advantage for nportation and exportation,to foreign marts, pon this fact we should riot confine our- on ives to one kind of industry but should en- h age in all the veried industries that the coun v would consistently admit ot. Our white ] ends have no objection to our development, da it they are in hearty accord with our ad ancement ir any useful enterprise. Let us lat ren begin the work of enterprises and let our wve 'ite frier.ds aid us. They are morally ound to extend us a helpiog hand. So may od bless the industrial efforts of the race. A. E.

NOBODY CAN SHUT HIS MOUTH. Card from Col. W. J. Taibert Acknowl edging that he Did Try to Answer senator Butler in his A bsence. C'LuMBIA. S. C., July -t.-Col. XV. .Talbert has sent the following to this Ilice for publication: To the Editor of The News and Cou er: Seeing by the papers that Gen. utler said that he would have replied >me if he had been present, I desire to ty that lie came to Prosperity the day efore the meeting and asked the privi ge of the committee to reply to me. Now, it is passing strange that he iold have made ,h a request, when had not been mentioned in connec on with the discussion. It seems that le distinguished Senator desired a )at with me. Then it is nmore strange ,ill that he should after making his eech and salivating all over the Alli ce people and their demands, leave e stage of action and not listen to hat I had to say, and even be followed y the newspaper reporters so that no port was even made of my speech, id then charge nmeor the committee ith breaking the faith. I wish to say that I was invited there talk Alliance, and what I said I am ~sponsible for and would have been ore than williug for Gen. Butler or ay body else to have heard and replied, d if he had wished could have done , as he was onl; a half or three quart - of a mile away, and left on the same 'an that I did. No man, sir, shall et up in my presence and talk about riving a sixteen-horse wagon through ie Alliance demands (and he no agoner either) and expect me to be lent: and I will also say that had my istinguished friend been present I ould have said a good deal more, (of urse in a respectful manner,) but ithout being egotistical I said enough spoil every track he niade with that xteen-horse teari. I showed to the ~owd that he dodged the issue entirely ad d ug up a dead issue; that he helped bury himself and growldJ over the ecayed bones (the Vance billl and did ot touch the living issues at all. In >nclusion allow ime to say that I do ot expect justice at the hands of tub ewspapers, but I will be for the boys ce to face and tatlk the truth, and no irthly power shall close my mouth. WV. .J.
