Lane, with his children and Miss Mamie Mangum, left on Thursday last for Columbia, where they will for the present reside. We regret the sad breaking up which ne cessitates their removal from our midst. Our community has been sadly be reft by the death of Mrs. Ella Mangum Lane, beloved wife of Mr. T. P. Lane, which occurred on the 29th ulP. She was known and loved far and wide for her many noble traits, lovely disposi tion and gracious manner. In every relation of life she showed her large heartedness. As a friend, she was loyal and true. In her home, her in tense devotion to husband, children, and the sister to whom she had been as mother, was the beautiful part of her character; a devotion which seemed only to enlarge and broaden her sym pathy with the outside world. Sad indeed is the Providence which has removed her tender care from those she loved so well. She was a -niember of the Baptist church and trusted with an implicit faiLh in a loving Saviour. Only for a brief space was she allowed to grieve for the daughter whose death had crushed such bright hopes. Now, side by side, they sleep at Rosemont. Sweet be their rest until that brighter morning breaks to chase the night of AN APPEAL FO HELP. Prompt and Generous Itespon&e of New berry for the relief of the Swa IsLanders.

I will no tico first some of Mr. Gaston's statements lie savs -in 18(l our country was happ: and prosperous." At that time we wert in the throes of a terrible civil war. hard P.- either a "happy" or "pros;-erous" con dition. Error number 1. Then he say, "We had a national banking system a tht time." Now it is a well known his. torical fact that orr old national bani wa,s arbitrarily sunpressed by Presiden1 Jackson in 1833, and that we had nothinL of the kind until our present nationa banking system went into effect in th( summer Of ISG3. This I state on the au th)ity of ex-Secretary of Treasury, Hugl McCulloh. in his "Men and Measures o Half a Century," page 107. Mr. Mc Cul1loch was at that time comptroller o the currency under Secretary Chase, an( was the chief factor in establishing on: present national banking system. I pre: sime his authority will not be questionec by any intelligent man. The meetinl then of national bankers in Washingtor in 1861 of which Mr. Gaston speaks couk not have taken place. Error number 2 Then he proceeds to make a number oi errors as to our circulation at differen1 dates. He begins with 1S66. when as h( alleges the circulation was $50 per capita Bii he does not tell us where he gets h*. in frmation-presumably from some im a;inative Alliance source, Dr. Macune o1 Kr. Dunning, or perhaps our sage o Enoree. I have before me an oflicia statement of the Secretary of the Treas ury of the circulation for each year froir lSt0 to the present. It was made up, ol coarse, from the treasury books. Sensi ble and reasonable men. I am sure, wil arcept it in preference to Mr. GasZon. uterly unsupported statement. I w begin a few years further back than Mr Gaston in 1861, when as he informs u. th- country was so "happy" and "prosper ons." Our populati6n was then 32,000. O;)P; circu!ation $448.000,00, per capitu $13.98. In 186, when Mr. Gaston in forms us we had a circulation of $50 pei capita, the Honorable Secretary report a population of 35,000,000; a circulatiot of $3673.000.000, per capita $IS.9. Ir 1 7, when Mr. Gaston gives us a circu lation of '1S per capita. the Secretary re ports population 3S,000.000. circulatior 8G75,000.U000, per capita $17.50. In 1880 wh-n Mr. Gaston given us a circulatioz of $10 per capita, the Secretary report. population 50,000.000. circulation $973; (100,100, per capita $19.41. In 1891, Mr Gaston gives us a circulation of onl) 4.:5 per capita. The Secretary report! a p -pulation of G4.000,000, a circulatior of $1,501,000,000, per capita 323.45:, o: nearly five times as much as Mr. Gastoi gives us. The above will suffice, I think to show to any intelligent man the valw of Mr. Gaston's statements, so I r:,' bohier with him no further. I will oni; add that the very last official report o the Treasury department, to August]I 18593. reports a per capita circulation o Of Mr. Bowden's address I have bu little to remark. It seems to have bee ciefly relative to the organization of th< Allianice. I may V ere say that there ar< some things about the Alliance of whic] I highly approve.

The Doctor, after quietly looking him over, said: "Yes, I can make a new man out of you, and have enough left to make a 'pozsun dog." Jii Hendrix was delighted and spoke for the dog at 6uce. Mr. Henry Spearman and Miss Sal lie Spearman, of Whitnires, were vis iting in the township this week. Mr. James Abraws, of -Mollohon, spent a few days with his brother, H. H. Abrams. Mr. Geo. P. Boozer has returned from Walhalla. Miss Mary Burton will teach the Burton school. Mr. G. B. Dominick is now 'teaching the Cleland school; Miss Emnina Riser the Trinity school. Smyrna, Dominick and Reederville have not secured their teachers yet. Although times are hard, No. 6 seems to be on a boom. Several saw mills are cutting lumber; one shingle mill is running, and a great deal of building is going on. Dr. W. D. Sern is buildir. a nice residence at Longshore; Walter S. Spearman is building not far from Silver Street, and a great deal of im provement is going on in the shape of barns, stables, tenement houses, etc. No. 6 is all right. Her young men are hard-working, prosperous fellows; her girls are pretty and make good wives. She votes the wav she thinks best, and does't think hard of those who differ with her. Lands are cheap enoug~h, and we want 100 white families to move into our township this winter. TE:LL. Longshore, S. C., Sept. 2, 1S93.

Bat while I approve III certain resPects of the Alliance, in other respects I disapprove of it in toto. I dis appr e of it. in the first pIn:s a errt 1O h-bo ."l organi::ation. i see no need of secrecy in suoh im order if its pur poses ue honest and honoraNe. Then I regard it to, or the duty of. good citizens to act independently and on their ij(di Yidual judgiment as to men and measures, m!,d not to be fettered-enslaved-by a secret oath to act in a certain way. Then I object to the Alliance as a secret politi eal factor. Secret political organizations have alwavs proved dangerous to free in stitutions. Then. too. I object most Ser; ously to the bitter warfare it is engaged in wamng against other classes and other important interests in the country; against sound ard honest money; against rail roads and corporations of every kind, as if they were not necessary to the pros perity and development of the country. There should be no warfare between our farmers and other important inter ests in the country. They are mutually dependent on each other for prosperity; and any individual or organization that I sows the seeds of hostility and distrust between them, as the Alliance is doing, is contrary to the interest of both sides. Mr. Bowden seems much disturbed about money to move our cotton crop. I am inclined to think and hope his fears are groundless. But if there be any reason for them, it come in the first place from the persistent efforts of Alliance men and free silverites to prevent the re peal of the Sherman law, which is the main cause of the trouble in money mat ters; and so far as we locally are con cerned from such mischievous intima tions as our Alliance governor has just been ind dging in about a stay law. Let that threat be carried out, and capital will shun'our State, and our bankers may be unable to secure money to move the crop. Civis. 'A'p Mrs. M. ..
