HOSES THE GOVERNOR.
?? ? The infatuation of a degraded mass in
CvKScsting to induct Guv, (whoso record
f tip to the time of his being stated in the
chair, one* honored by such northies as
?o vr< f
;. jRutlcdge, Hamilton, Allstou and others)
r. oilly served to show how fatal was ' the
it blow aimed by a dominant partisanship,
against the republican principles of a
sovereign State, claiming a constitutional
protection, which partizanship for any
purposes except.those of "Justice", hurled
j a proud commonwealth from a piunacle
of grandeur, to a miserablo vassalago to
an ignorant, venal and bestial crew.
?' ?'?Loathsome as was the contamination
with adventurers and thieves, who flock
ed'as vultures over the prostiate State,
;fi! .. ..
our people yielding to the arbitrament of
of the sword, accepted in good faith the
cartel of peace, and returned to rebuild
? their desolated homes. Revolting as
; was the spectacle of a horde of plunderers
' wearing the cloak of official trust, our
brave men bent their wills in submission,
retaining only tho erect position of an
..overpowered yet scorning community.
'And now is seen the anomalous specta
cle of the superior forced by law to yield
obedience to an inferior; Of the virtuous
oppressed to the will of the vicious. Of
the possessors of property taxed to sup
port the licentious demand of a crew re
velling in their nf?!o?i ?uU all ibis under
enaction of law, which invoked again and
again, was deaf to the appeals of the in
jured. Then with sober judgement, and
respectful attitude nu appeal was made
? by the taxpayers to the general govern
meni,'which claimed the right to do all
?this; and in spite of irrefrngible proofs
exhibiting charges which blot the page of
. history, our committee was remanded
' back with the solace "we can make a
citizen out of an Ashantee; but rve cannot
protect our native citizens from the pirati
cal plundering^ of those who wear the coat
of radicalism" In other words to retain
the fat offices at Washington the federal
???? head would immolate the liberties of a
i
State. And the counter memorialists
''representing the scum of creation were
feted and wined, and the peoples' com
mittee were snubbed. All of this is in
accord with the programme of northern
' ideas" Let us have jjcace." The thieves have
? gone on from excess to excess. Kimp
1 ton and his financial game; Parker and
l lmluutl; Whitlemore, Scott and the en
.tire list, have ben lifted to power on the
t?link of a eeiisclcsa mass, and robbing
I the State have been jpushed aside for
iStrii rivals. Moses, in turn sought tho
gubernatorial chair, and against the
adviuo and entreaty of the white people,
id ho too was placed by an ignorant con
stitueucy at the head of government.
" What has been his career? Holding the
'"caducous" of cunning he was awake to
. ? the fluty of filling his coffers; and put to
sleep witli a lotion of bribe the eyes of
his rivals. He was the protecter und
friend of burglars, felon? and murderers,
and turned loose on the community an
army of devils whom law had sent to
prison. He was the companion of bnwds,
and the public funds were expended on
prostitutes and rioting. Seizing tho ap
propriation? of contingent funds, he
''squandered it all, and then inveigled the
treasurers of the County, under the pro
mise of pardon to shield them from the
penalty of law, until his.excertes impinged
on the spoil of others ho overstepped tho
mark, and his friends would clip the
Malaria' ofhisVeudy flight therefrom, and
brii'g hi in to the bar. Now lit stands as
a folon on the charge of theft; and
whether the law is vindicated" or no, he
must forever be t he proihiuen? repreeeti*
talive of a degraded government; the.
ridicule of the world in not hating ; long
since hurled to contempt the licentious,
brutal and shameless renegade. Let us
look with prayerful interest to the trial
of Moses on the 29th day of May.
STATE NEWS.
The County Treasurer of Lancaster
has issued nearly four hundred tax exe
cutions. ' . ub

More corn and less cotton is getting

In Abb civil ic County the cattle are

The southern memorial day: was not
observed in Beaufort, although the re. a re
many southern soldiers buried in the
National Cemetery.
The Greenville Building and Loan
Association has established itself on a
firm footing by the election of officers?
good and substantial men.
Ten thousand six hundred and ninety
four dollars and eighty-six cents were
sent form Darlington in postoffice money
orders during the past three months.
The Blue Ridge scrip is not dead yet.
It is to be offered for taxes and when re
fused, the whole question is to be fought
over again before the courts. Two mil
lions arc hard to kill.
Governor Moses has pardoned three
Marion county criminals who were sen
tenccd'to the penitentiary for three years
for grand laceny. Mark it down?three
more radical voters.
A negro stole a hog iu the "indepen
dent republic of Horry" last week. He
was caught and rubbed with "hickory
oil." So Moses loses another chance of
exercising the pardoning power.
The now president of the Port Royal
road has commenced his reign by reduo
iug fares. He advertises round trip tick
ets from August? tn Port Rojal andre
turn, te excursion parties of twenty, for
fifty dollurs. Until the fust of- June
next he will sell one thousand mile tick

Shooting in Newberry?Wash Holmes
shot John Red in the head, at Floyd's
place, last Tuesday, and Jim Williams
shot Lucinda Clary through the chin, on
Mr. W. Barre'? plantation, some days
since. The parties colored. Wounds
not serious.
A colored woman near Winnsboro,
recently gave birth to three, children.
Less than twelve months ago she bore
twins. Five children in less than a year
is pretty good work. Another colored
woman in the same vicinity has had four
children in fifteen months. If this thing
gets fashionable there will have to be
another appeal to Congress.
Mackey, against whom the Democrats
of the fourth congressional 1 dis riet of
this State made some mosr. damaging
statements a year ago, is spoken of as the
conservative candidate .for Congress. He
is in favor with the negroes, and what a
Radical and a "nigger,, can't accom
plish is not worth accomplishing. '
A heavy business is to be done this
year in the shipment of naval stores from
Port Royal. The largo amount of rosin,
turpentine, etc., made on the line of dur
road has heretofore gone north by way
of Charleston. Ou Monday last the first
shipment was made by Mr. Kirk from
Port Royal of 55 bbls of turpentine, and
arrangements have been made to continue
shipments on a large scale.
A bill has been introduced by Senator
Stewart, of Nevada, providing that Con
gress shall vceuine control of the District
of Columbia. The recent investigations
demonstrated tho existeucs of fraud and
corruption in tho management of affairs
in the District, and that the expensive
and extensive improvements around
Washington are nothing more or less
than legislative robbery, affording oppor
tunity for a largo amount of rascality.
The new bill provides for the appoint
ment ofComraisioncr8 to control affairs,
to be selected from the different States.
The white people favor the bill, as they
arc taxed excessively under the present
arrangement. Tho colored voters, how
ever, arc strenuously opposed, si 'cc it
would take away the delectable privilege
of their enjoying tho olective franchiso,
which, to the average "ward of the," is
one of tho chief delights of Washington
life.

Lines on the Death ol Little Frank
Myers Who Died Feb. 13, 1074.
Oh why did I awaken
Owe day to bo forsaken
By the prettsct little songster that was ever wont
to Hing;
? To? find him flown forever
And feel that I should never
See again my daring .birdie, or hear his music
ring.
"While he knew net I Was sighing,
For my bird vat happily Nyinjj^
Where the gentle winds and nunshiuc were fond
ling with the trees,
Ab my saddened heart with yearning
Kept my eyes forever turni? . r
To his cage that strung so lovely in- the plenBant
summer hreezc.
If not that all that sadness
Might tell mc of the gladncf*
That from morning until evening my birdies
heart had filled
And to say, though I was dreary,
How my little bird was cheery
So happy i.-v his freedom to fly where'ere he
willed.
To tell mc, though I found him
And had my hands around him
I would not be so cruel as to cage him in his pen
For I loved him, Oh! too dealy j
To treat him so nnfarly
Ah to cheat him of his freedom, but would let
him go again.
And to tell you too, if only,
Though your heat is sad and lonc)y,
You'd remember in your loneliness, your griev
ing and your pain,
That though your soul is dreary
And your heart Becms ever weary
This weeping and this Buffering is little Frank ies
gain.
That now with angels singing
Ilia voice to day is ringing
Witb a song of greater happiness than he could'
sing below.
That his happy heart is shaded
By no Borrow that have faded
The brightest and tho lightest heat that earth
could ever know.
So that that thought should borrow
Such sweetness for your sorrow,
That even in your weeping for the face that you
must mlesa
. You could never be so cruel
Ah to wish your little jewel
To leave that bright and happy home and corne
again to thiti. F. H. M.

Hall, May 6th, 1874, the foMowing preamble
and resolutions were adopted:

er Frederick Fersner, having completed his
three score years of a life, fall of usefulness to
his fellow men, and of love for our venerable
and cherished order, suffering for years from a
painful disease, heard and obeyed the order
from our Supreme Grand Master, and having
all of his life acted by the pluueb,he has parted
from us on the square, to take his journey
through the dark valley of death, we sincerely
hope, to that fuircrland to which masonry with
its unerring finger points.
And as it is our desire as a Lodge to put upon
record our appreciation of our deceased brother,
therefore be it
Hesolved, 1st. That while we can but feel that

Steeping and Preparing Seeds before

This preparation,lately introduced to the Ag
ricnltural world.nppearfrom recent-experiments
to surpass all that has ever been attempted in
that line. It not only contains all the elements
and fit food for the peed in its infant state, which
enables it to come up strong and vigorous, but
positively claim that no rust smut or blight can
exist where it is applied, ami proving n certain
preventive against the Potato rot. It dissolves
readily, and forms a mucilage by which any
material can bo made to adhere to tho seed.
Coal Tar being a very small portion of this vnl
ahle compound to prevent the ravages of birds
and insects, but so united and prepared a* to
form a dry powder, which dissolves readily,one
pound producing one and a half gallons, or
fifteen pounds of mucilage. On every farm there
are to bo found in abundance valunblo mate
rials for rolling seeds in l>eforo planting, which
should never bo neglected. Those arc rich dry
black earth mid wood ashes, or lime,aud should
be mixed in proportions of one part of wood
ashes or lime, to three parts of earth. By the
nid of the mucilage, much of this material can
be made to adhere to each si-ed, which never
fails to show good results. It boa hoen trie*', on
corn, rice, cotton, wheat, potatoes, peas and all
the cereals with marked effect, none showing
any signs of rust, blight or fungus whero it was
applied. Put up in one pound Packages at 30
cents per pound, which dissolves and form ono
and a half gallon of Mucilage, sufficient to roll
seed for one acre land. 1500 Planters used it bust
season with remarkable success.
Every Farmer and Planters should use it.
