Ga., January 12. —Alexander McCallum, a young negro from Robeson County, N. C., stopped over in the city sev eral hours yesterday. He said thi.t he was on his way to Me Qu !en’s turpentine still, on the Ge irgia Southern and Florida Railroad, to see his brother, who is working there. Alexander sa; s that he is inspired, that he never went to school a day, and does not know a letter in the alphabet when he sees it, but he ca i quote any verse or chapter in the Bible. He was talking to some white men and negroes at the passen ger station when a correspond ent was passing by, whose at tention was called to the negro. Alexander said ; “Yes, I am in spired by the goodness of the Lord. He gave me knowledge of the whole Bible one day in October, 188C. If anybody has a Bible and will name any chap ter or verse by number I will quote it word for word.” No one had a copy of the Bible, and so a gentleman went and bor rowed one. More than fifty chapters and verses were called for by different gentlemen, and Alexander quoted every one, word for word. He is one of the most remarkable negroes ever seen in this country. He is intelligent and speaks fairly good English. He talks religion ah the tune. He is ignorant of th ! politics of his own country, ard cannot remember anything that has been told him of a w >rldly nature. He says that he has never opened a Bible since he was a little boy when he played with the leaves of the Bible. Alexander is 27 years of age. Hu cannot talk distinctly. He says that he works all the time, at. i always has more money then he needs for his comfort. V\ iioever has the opportunity of ta ! .ing with him will be i n- jjiejsed with the fact that th- re is something more than natural in bis power of memory, if it could be called memory. He says that it is the gift of God ! A gentleman, who in now a citizen of ’arlington, ha» known Alexander M< Oallum, the negro mention* d *b ve, for a number of years.

[The State, Jan. 15,1 A horrible accident happened at the residence of Mr. F. D, Chapman on Lumber street, be tween Bull and Marion streets yesterday morning between ard 7 o’clock, whereby a young colored woman may loose her life. The young woman Mnry A in Thomas, who was the nurse in Mr. Chapman’s family, was st aiding before the fire in the bedroom of three children, and was engaged in dressing a two year-old child. While thus en gaged her clothing caught fire, and in a few moments her dress was in a blaze. She had pns ei.ee of mind to seize the little child and throw it into the bed. She then screamed out and ran into the piazza, the worst thing she could have done. Mr. Chap man, who had not arisen, hear ingthe screams, rushed into the room. Hastily grabbing up st ;ne quilts from the bed, he fol lowed the woman, threw them around her, and rolled her over on the floor till the flames were smothered. He had nis hands and feet very painfully burned ai,d his eye brows singed off. The poor woman was in a ter rible condition when the blank et * were taken from around h«r. Ail of her lower limbs and the lower portion of her body had the skin burned so badly that it peeled off. Her hands and face w we also badly burned, and she w .s almost unconscious. She was placed in comfortable quar- tei S in the residence, and Mr. ai 1 Mrs. Chapman atonce sum* in med Dr. Kendall, in the mean time giving her the most fcare- fu< attention. The little one whom she was di essing at the time was pain fully burned in several places, bu; the fire on its clothing was quickly extinguished. ored institution in Cheraw. HER CLOTHING CAUGHT FIRE. A Colored Woman Meets with a Pain ful and Severe Accident. A colored woman came very near being burned to death on Saturday at the residence of Mr. N. S. Gibson, on Orange Street. Her name is Fannie Sanders and had only recently come to Dar lington. Her home is in Sum ter. The accident occurred by her clothes catching fire from a fire place in the house. She was soon enveloped in flames and in this condition she ran hastily out into the back yard where there is a well. Two other servants, who were in the yard, extinguished the flames hy pouring water from the well on the unfortunate woman Her ciothes were burnt off, but, while her injuries are very se vere and painful, Dr. Willcox, who is attending her, thinks she will recover. MISS JOSEPHINE CAMERON. The Popular Actress to Again Visit Darlington. Miss Josephine Cameron will appear at the Darlington opera house on the nights of the 30 and 31 insts. On the first night she will present “Ingomar” and on the second, “East Lynne”— two famous plays will thus be presented by a famous actress, for Miss Cameron is one of the best known of American ac tresses who visit the South. She is certainly as fine an ac tress as one sees in these parts. Last year she visited Darlington and those who faw her remem her with pleasure the splendid rendition of her parts The theatre-going people of Darling ton are to be congratulated that Miss Cameron will again visit the town. Reserved seats may be obtained from the manager of the opera house. coming undcsiraMe moved three boxes containing a corpse each to the plat form of his car outside, one on top of j the other. i As the train via* nearing Ottumwa, the baggage mar upon looking out was horrified to dis<over oneof the boxes missing. Surmising that cm of the boxes had slid off in r< unding a carve, owing to the high rate of speed the train had been running, he wired Superintendent Dngan immediately upon arrival of the train at Ottumwa, apprising him of the loss. Dugan wired the section foreman at Ottumwa as follows: “Patrick McGann—Look for corpse lost off Cannon Ball three miles west of Ottumwa and report condition of same when found." Patrick immediately started out with the section gang, and found the box in tact and brought the same to Ottumwa. It was seldom that Patrick received or ders direct from the superintendent, the roadmastor Iieing his immediate supe rior. Consequently Patrick concluded the time to win promotion had arrived, and after reading Dugan's telegram over for the twentieth time wired his super intendent as follows: “Misfcter Dooguu—I hev found the kornpse, aud the koropse was ded.” The operator’s expostulations were in vain, and Patrick would permit no change ir the mi ssage, saying: “I musht obbey the arders of Doo- gan.”—Astoria Examiner.

Cox, of Darlington elec trie light fame, again appears in South Carolina’s business cir cles, as will be seen by the fol lowing extract taken from the Xews and Courier^ account of the proceedings of a recent meeting of the City Council of Charleston : “Quite a lengthy letter was next read from Mr. L. N. Cox, an electric light pro moter of Washington, who ad vises that the City Council of Charleston purchase an electric light plant for $50,000 and give him the job of managing the machine. This was referred to the committee on lighting to digest and report back.” THE GOVERNOR FORGOT. That in Our Form of Government There Are Three Co-ordinate Branches. [Savannah News] Gov. Tillman, of South Caro lina, apparently has lost sight of the fact that State govern ments in this country consist of three distinct and separate branches—the legislative.the ju dicial and the executive. When one of these departments en croaches upon the functions of another it is in violation of the conservative and safe republi canism which moved the found ers of this government to frame and adopt a constitution provid ing for a triple alliance of an thorities in the government, and limiting the powers of each of these authorities. The Legisla ture of South Carolina went to the limit of its authority when it passed the Evans liquor law, and the Governor will reach the limit of his authority when he has exhausted all legal means at his command to have the law carried out. Meanwhile it is the function of the courts to say whether or not the law is con stitutional, and a decision of the court would overrule and set aside any opposite opinion that might be held by the Governor. Consequently Governor Tillman is “talking through his hat” when he says the Evans law “will go into effect on July 1, 1893, despite the courts or any thing else.” How is he going to override the decisions of the courts if they should be against his opinion ; by putting the judges in jail and calling for United States troops to uphold him ? America’s Natives Described. This description of the natives as they appeared to the English colonists in Maryland was written in 1668: They are very proper tall men of per son ; swarthy by nature, bnt much more by art; painting themselves with colours in oyle, like a darke red, which they doe to keep the gnatts off. As for their faces they have other colours at times, as blew from the nose upward and red down ward; somewhat contrariwise, in great varietie and in very gastly manner. They have no boards till they come to be very old, and therefore draw from each side of their mouthes lines to their eares to represent a beard. Their ap parel! generally is deere skyns and some furre, which they wear like loose man tels; and yet under this, about their middle, all women and men, at man’s estayte, were rounde aprons of skyns, which keeps th im decently covered, so that, without ar y offense to chast eyes, we may converse with them. All the rest of their bodies are naked, and at timee some of the youngest sort of both men and women have just noth ing to cover them. The natural wit of this nation is very quick and will con ceive a thing very readily. They excel! in snlell and ta ite and have far sharper sight than we. If these people were once Christian* (as by fome signs we have reason to think nothing hinders it bnt want of Itngnage), it would be a right virtuous and renowned nation. The Saudrinf.ham Funeral Sermon. The wide inti rest taken in the ques tion of recognition In eternity was illus trated by the extraordinary sale of the sermon preached at Sandringham on the decease of the Duke of Clarence and Avondale, the eldest son of the Prince and Princess of Wales. The profits during the short period of six months an onnted to no less than £1,300, of whicii the sum of £650 was given by the Princess of Wales to the Oordon Boys’ home and £650 to the British Home f ir Incurables. Over 50,- 000 copies were sold in that time—a sale certainly unprecedented in the annals of profit from a single sermon of a few pages. The pieacher has been beard to say that this sale waa not due to his slender sermon, but to the touching anecdote told by the princess, forming the prefa tory note, and which she gave permis sion to be printed. The substance of the story is that in 1888 all the five chil dren of the -princess were with her at Sandringham, and they all partook of holy communion together. “I gave Eiidy a little liook,” said the bereaved mother, “and wrote in it: “Nothifig in my hand ! bring. Simply to thy cross I cling, “and also “Just aa I am, without one plea. But that thy blood was shed for me, O Lamb of God, 1 come. “When he wus gone, and lay like one sleeping,” continued the princess, “w« laid a cross of flowers on his breast, and after we had done so 1 turned to the ta ble at his bedside and saw the little book in vfWch were written these words, am I could not hel.i feeling that he did clinj to the cross, and that it had all com true.”—Leisure Hour. About Two English Poets. A cottager near Farringford said one day to his clergyman, “They tells me that this ’ere Lord Tennyson’s a great poet.” “Certainly he is—a very great poet.” “And I’ve been readin a man named Shakespeare—he was a great poet too”’ “Indeed he was.” “Well,' said the rustic critic as he struck his spade deep into the soil, “I don’t think nothing o’ neither of ’em 1”—New York Tribune.
