August 13.-A gentle man from the Broad River section fur nishes some facts about some "novel prceedigs" of a trial justice which. certainly breaks the record in this vear of strange doings in p)olitics.

Our protracted 'meeting at Trinity began on the Sth and broke on the 14th, and it will long be remembered with great satisfaction by the preacher and congregation.

We had thirty-one to join the church during the meeting, and two others having joined at a pre vious meeting, made thirty-three in all.

Langford has been ap pointed agent to succeed 1r. Lake. SENATOP KEITTS SPEECir. Senator Joseph L. Keitt made a speech in favor of the sub-treasury plan at Mr. S. H. Fellers' barbecue, on the 11th instant. The following is a synopsis of his speech: The capitalists have falsely educated the people to believe that silver and gold are the only true monies. Such is not the case. Greenbacks is a better money than gold or silver. We need more greenbddks and we will become a prosperous people. When we bad $50 per.capita we realized 30 cents a pound for coton. Now we have only S5 per capita and we get only six or seven cents a pound for cotton. Question-Mr. Keitt, On't supply and demand have something to do with it? Answer-Contraction of the curren cy has something to do with it. Question-Will you kindly explain why we realized thirty cents a pound for cotton when we had a four million bale crop, and seven cents when we have an eight million bale crop? Answer-I will admit that supply and demand have something to do with it, but you must remember that, as the currency contracted, cotton went down, and such has been the case for the past twenty-five years. Suppose we raised 30,0)00 bales of cotton in New berry County and we had $10,000 to pay for the 30,000) bales with, you see we could get only 30- cents per bale. Surely any sensible man can under stand that comparison. Suppose eight millon bales be raised, or suppose the demand be eight million and 10 cents the price of cotton. The factories buy enough cotton at 10) cents to run on un til January. Then the speculator steps in. The bania at the North say to the banks South, you must pay your note. 1auks Soutn say to merchants, you must pay your note. The merchants ay to the farmers bring in your cotton ud pay up. Then the p)rice of cotton is reduced to 8 cents a pound by the :peculator. If we had warehouses for the farmers, and the farmers could make a loan from the government at t wo per cent. we could abolish the spec ulator and sell directly to the factories at ten cents a pound. THE NATIONA L BANKS. Senator Butler at Prosperity evaded the questions I asked him about the National Banks. He (Senator Butler) did not like the word "lien," but pre ferred the word "tax." I say the gov ernment docs loan the national banks money at one per cent., and the banks charge the people from 15 to 20 per cent. for money. If the banks have a right to a circula tion of money based on their bonds, the farmers have a right to circulation based on non-perishable products. If the merchants had been patriotic, they would have advocated the sub-tr2asury plan long ago aud would have taken the farmer by the hand and asked him to help them work out the plan. But the merchant is under the banker, and is afraid to do anything to displease him. Merchants, the time has come when you must decide where you will stand! Will you go with the people or will you go with the moneyed powers and help to crush out the farmere? GOING FOR SENATOR BUTLER. Senator Butler was dealing unfairly with the peop)le of Prosperity when he discussed the dead bill presented by Mr. Vance in Congress, and he knew it. (Put it down. I want it to go to the papers.) Senator Butler is against us. He (Senator Butler) has fought the demands of the Alliance and is opposed to the farmers borrowing money at two per cent. from the government. He is in favor of the National Banks. D)ECLARE" I3SELF A TiIIRD) PARTY 31AN. Question-What about the Third party? Answer-As an Alliancemanm? Question-No, as a citizen. nswer-I am a free man. I have the right to do as I please, and as ani Aliuceman I will st- d by the de mands of the Alliance. .f the Demo cratic party will not concede these demands, I will go where we can gel them satisfied. [A pplause.] The only applause Senator Keitt re ceived was when he declared his inten tion to leave the Democratic party ii the demands of the Alliance were not conceded to within the party. One of his hearers remarked to your correspondent, "We have tried the Democratic party for a long time, and we are willing to take a little of the third now.'' The "I. W.

But we want all to make progrecs, we want e better methods and better training in all of our scl ools. One of the best means to accomplish this is the County Institute. All teachers can attend it. ~They cannot afford to lose the oppor tunity to learn something which makes them better fitted for their work. The Institute will be in session five days. The grade of the teacher's certificate -hereafter will depend to some extent upon the number of Institutes he has e attended. ARnzL"R KIBLER, if School Commissioner. DEATHS. Mr. Won. H.
