DARLINGTON NEWS. j. w. n^ivt^roisriD, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. THURSDAY. DECEMBER 26. 1878 ( H Rim AN. A merry CItri»tma» lo our reader*! Whnt the blessed Sunday is to each week the Christmas week is to the year. It is the time to rest before enterinjt upon the toils of another year. It is the time to pause and reflect on the past, to gather the lessons of our experience, to regret errors and trinagressions, to repent of misdeeds and to form good resolutions fo. the future. It is the time to cultivate our hearts, to make smiling and happy the faces of wires and hos* bands asd children, to remember the poor, to help the afflicted and to strength- en the tic* of relationship. To ns now as lolhe Shcoherds near Bethlehem,the angels sing “peace on earth and good will to men.’’ Cease strifes and quarrels, permit bygones to be bygones, and with fresh and kindly hearts, let us one and all, enter upon the new year.

What better Christmas news could we give our readers f For many weeks a groat dread baa oppressed the hearts of all true South CaroliDians. Day after day meu expected to hear that all was over and that the State, just when she most needed him, had lost her noblest eon. the cool temper, the wise head, the saga cious statesman, the honorable gentle man, the true patriot, the lover of his whole people, the public man of pure purposes, nnd the soldier possessed of moral as well as physical courage. What a sad Christmas it would have been to the people of South Carolina had he died ! How much the news of his safety adds to the joyousness of this festal week language cannot ex press. the legislature. The Legislature has according to prom iso adjourned.

Therefore, Wo the undersigned citi. zena of Tiiuinonaville nud thu surround ing country, fueling that the material, moral, social and spiritual condition oj the community and of the town of Tim monsville would be thereby promolcch do humbly pray your honorable body that you will after this date renew no existing licenses for the sale of iutoxi eating spirit* and grant no new ones, tu the cud there maybe noplace ip th' town where persons may purchase th* article ; for tbe grunting of which afore, said prayer and petition wo will ever cheerish a grateful reincmberance. i The copy of tho memorial which ha' been presented to the citileus of th' town and visit rs upon tht streets ha' upon it one hundred and twenty names.

Morton, the president of the Philadelphia Street Railway Oompnnv, who pleaded guilty to the ctlurge ol fraudulent-over-issue ol stock, to a ten year's imprisonment, and solitary confinement ut that, in the East ern Penitentiary of Pennsylvania, must strike every one as an instance of strict justice, thouah iu its solitary feature, snoutd that prove all the word implies, rather severe. Morton's “operations” resulted in a loss to the company which confided it* affairs to his custody of two million* M dollar*. His pica of guilty was doubtless inude, not from any feel tog of contrition, hut with the object of procuring a mitigation of his sentence, and this the court seems to have under stood and appreciated In the course of his ten year's confinement Mr. Morton will have a fall opportunity to teflect u on the error of his ways, und to bring fifft h fruits meet for repentance In the meantime the example will be salutary, and that, after all, is the principal mut ter whieh society should take into con sideration. The New York Timet says that “the indifference shown by Republican Sena tors tu M . Blaine's investigation is due to personal jealousy,” whilst the New York Evening Pott ascribes it to a grow ing conviction that the movement is un timely nud .will be unproductive. The restduliou of inquiry passed easily Tu b» day. but, now that the investigation is ordered, nobody, not even Mr. Blaine hini*»lf, seems to wish Io have anythiug to do with it.
