If AN ATROCIOUS BUTCHERY. Early on Saturday morning, before the dawn of day, a party of unknown men broke into the Barnwell County jail and, forc ing the keys from the jailor’s hands, unlocked the cells and, ] less time and the greatest reform of the day will be consummated, j And then, too, for once the peo ple, to w hom they owe their po litical life, will be under obliga tions to them. m i>ditoriiil Notes.

The other six were accused of being implicated in the murder of Robert Martin, a young man who was shot from an ambush, near Martin’s Station, on the night of December 21. We pause; it is impossible to find fit words with which to condeirtn* this atrocious butch ery ! Where in the annals of the crimes of modem times can be found a deed more horrible in its conception, more revolting in its nature and more dreadful in the effects it will have on our beloved community ? We do not think that even a parallel may be found. Verily we may ask is civilization retrograding ? We shall not undertake to condemn this crime, for it needs no condemnation, but we depre cate its occurrence and pray Heaven to spare us from a repe- titio.i of it. It is useless to show unto the perpetrators of such crimes why justice should be al lowed to take its course and why all high-handed and unlaw ful acts of violence should be avoided ; it is of no avail to ap peal to them that the good name of the State should be preserved; nor would a clear exhibition of the distressing results which, will surely follow the commission of this deed, have any efitect. We are glad to say, however, that we do not believe the good peo ple of Barnwell had anything to do with the lynching and it is encumbent upon them, togeth er with the law-abiding citizens of other portions of the State, to pat a stop to such work in the future and thus partially erase the blot upon the escutcheon of our commonwealth. killed and and ten ten persons were wounded. As usual there were a number of murders committed through out the country on Christmas day as the natural sequence of the drunken frolics of that day. Nearly ninety members of the present* Congress were in the Confederate army in stations ranging from private soldiers to major-general. Early on Sunday morning at Hurontown, Michigan, a family named Gross, consisting of pa rents and eight children, with a visitor, were consumed in their burning dwelling. A farmer named William Ma jor, on the night of December 27, near Mount Vernon, Michi gan, killed his wife, his daugh ter and his grand-daughter. Af ter this horrible deed he hanged himself. The tomb of Jefferson Davis is closely guarded in order that the body may not be stolen by grave robbers. It is feared that these robbers for the hope of the reward offered for its return, may steal the body. The people of Atlanta have decided to raise a monument to the memory of Henry W.

The habit our LegislatorAave contracted of dilly-dally ingaway the time during the first pa t of the session, and thus necessita ting a rush of business during the latter part, has become a se rious matter involving much trouble, error and bad legisla tion and should be stopped. Many measures of the gravest importance are never considered, while others just as important are hurried through without be ing given the proper attention. Take for instance, Mr. Nettles’ road bill. This bill is undoubt edly a good one and, if passed, would relieve us of many of the annoyances and burdens conse quent upon the present system of working the roads. And what did our worthy Legislators do with it f They did nothing; they did not have time, because day after day had been wasted dur ing the first part of the session. There were other bills equally as important and equally as good as Mr. Nettles’ that never saw the light of day. Do we send the Ixegislators to Columbia for this ; do we send them to do nothing ? No; they can remain at home and do that, without be ing paid by the State/or it. - Hasty legislation is the bane of our political and social exist ence and it is far better to have none at all than to have legisla tion pregnant with bad judg ment and pernicious features. And of such is much that is done by the General Assembly. And in consequence of the great rush near the end of the session many mistakes are made, the responsibility for which is put by'the members upon the poor unhappy overworked engrossing clerks. But this responsibility 'does not belong there and the unerring judgment of the people will place it upon the broad shoulders of the Legislator, who lives exuberantly in the luxury The influenza is spreading all over this country. It is a mild type and but few die of it. In Europe, however, it is terribly fatal and all the countries are more or less affected by it. In Paris alone on Wednesday was 318 ; on Thursday 393 ; Friday 344. On Wednesday of last week the town of Jessup, in the south era part of Georgia, was the scene of a bloody race riot. The town marshals attempted to ar rest Bob Brewer, a notorious ne gro desperado, who immediately killed one of the marshals and wounded another. The negro and his gang then fled to a neighboring swamp followed by the enraged white people, and a general melee ensued in which three whites and three blacks were killed and several of both races were wounded. Brewer has not yet been captured. The excitement is intense but it is thought that the worst is over. ImpoiUnt io Alliance Men. The following communication of the Secretary of the County Alliance explains itself: Editor Darlington News: I enclose you a notice of meet of County Alliance, which you will please put in The News.

Probably this is the queerest love letter on record and the most remark able offer of marriage ever made. It is a love letter without a word of love and a proposal of marriage that does not propose.—Indianapolis Journal What » Ball right CoaU. The cost of one of these corridas may be safely reckoned at not less than £1,500. There are generally six bulls killed, and these average trom £70 to £100 each. Horses are con tracted for, and are bought at simply *'knacker” prices; sometimes as many as twenty-five are done to death. There are generally three espadas, and these, with their cuadrillas, may be taken, one with another, at about £250 each. Then there is a very large number of assistants and attendants; a very heavy rent is paid for the plaza, and tne government tax, or “contribu- cion,” is also a considerable item. The “gate” may be estimated, given a “full house ’—and it is almost always fairly filled—at some £2,000.

UalM for Bat Wi Devices for mitigating the effects of the hot weather are endless, and most of them useless. Here are three tried and trustworthy maxims for hot weather conduct, and outside of them there is no trick or device by means of which the dog star can oe circumvented. These maxims are: L Wear as light and loose clothing as you dare. 2. Take plenty of exercise, but in a calm way. 3. Drink no alcoholic or efferves cent beverages. In exercising, the great point is not to be afraid of the heat; but not, at the same lime, to choose violent diver sions. The youth or maiden who is in the habit of playing baseball or lawn tennis and quite accustomed to the exercise may play it on a hot day m safely as ever, and people who are in the habit of walking a fair amount have nothing to fear, hut everything to gain from keeping up their custom ary exercises in summer. But excep tional physical tests should certainly be avoided under a burning sun. And absolute inaction is as ted in hot weather ns at any other time.—Bos ton Transcript. Astonlfthlog Endurance.
