Nothing so clearly demonstrates
the fallacy of the demands for free
coinage than the mere mention of the
fact that its advocates iuvariably
avoid any discussion as to its merits,
and when pressed to give their rea
sons take refuge in generaltios that
mean nothing whatever.
he will have to give one hundred
dollars in value to say nothing of the
interest ho pays for the loan. This 1
is just simply one of the many evils
that will result from free coinage.
•lust at this time the Southern
farmer finds liir lot a pretty hard one
in consequence of the low price of
cotton, hut if he thinks he can stand
a good deal more pinching, then all
he has to do is to join in the cry for
free coinage and keep it up until
Congress enacts a law to t hat effect,
and he will then have his fondest
dreams of hard times more than
realized.

Where the eun kisses his thin whUcncJ hair;
In the warm sunlight he rocks to and <ro.
Thinking o< days in the long, long ago.
The daye ol hie youth when ho was a boy,
Full of youth’s pleasures, a fond mother's Joy;
Now as he sits rooking there to and fro—
8e't Urlng again In that long, long ago.
In all of these years now nearly four score.
With all of the scenes bis mind hath In stores
There Is none so vlrid In memories glow
As those of his youth In that long, long ago;
The face of each playmate as fair and as bright
As the red sunset glow on a yesterday night;
The form and the voice, each face and each
name,
In his memory's eye are erer the same.
As ho rooks to and fro he's living once more
The pleasures his memory holdeth In store,
He feels not the' weight of his four score yean,
His eye Is not dimmed by tho mist of tears;
There's rather a smile In his fading eyes.
As thoughts of bis youth In his mind nrlso;
The deep wrinkled face grows brighter and
fair.
As thoughts leave their sweetest czpresslor
there.
Rock grandfather, rock and live over again,
Those days of your youth that bring you ne
pain;
The years of your toll, their troubles and care
In memory and no resting place there.
How dear to tho aged those scenes of then
youth,
They lire, erer live, Immortal as truth;
Fresh la the mind as the sunlight s bright ray,
Olvc blessings to age, by night and by day

Mr. W. II. Wallace, the editor of
the Newberry Observer, has been
elected to a professorship in the
Columbia Female College, and will
enter on the discharge of his duties
at the opening of the fall session.
This will, of course, necessitate his
withdrawal from the field of journal
ism at a time when the services of
inch an able and conscientious editor
are most sorely needed. The signal
ability and uniform courtesy that
Mr. Wallace displayed in the manage
ment of his paper, made it, by com
mon consent, one of the best weeklies
in the State and one that reflected
the greatest credit both upon himsell
and the profession of journalism. I:
every paper in the State were con
ducted on the high plane of the Ob
server, and every editor were as thor
oughly conscientious in the discharge
of bis dnties, as Mr. Wallace, they
would exercise ten fold the influence
they now do. Onr best wishes wil
go with him in hie new field of labor
and we trnst that the same success
that attended him in his journalistic
career may attend him in the pursuit
of a more congenial profession.
All the people of the State, irre
spective of party or faction, will
deeply regret that failing health has
made it necessary for Judge Ker
shaw to retire from the bench and
thereby close a public service that
has been in the highest degree honor-
abli, and one that any man might
envy. In every public position to
which he has been called he has serv
ed the people with perfect fidelity
and to the utmost limit of his ability
and his record, both in public and
private has been without stain.
Amid the dauntless warrior** who
hslped to make the Army of
Northern Virginia Immortal, he was
one of the bravest of the brave, and
hil sword was ever found flashing in
the foremost of the fight. South
Carolina has never given birth to a
more knightly soldier or grander gen
tleman than Joseph B. Kershaw, and
all our people will join in the earnest
Wish the evening of his life maybe
Spent in peace and happiness, sus
tained ae be will l« by the conscious*
ness of duty nobly and unselflhly
dece
it would be of great benefit to the
IWUdtry at large, especially the South,
if people could be made to see the
gfMt Injury that is being done to the
business interests of every section, by
the demand for free coinage, which
means no more nor less than that the
government be made to give the
owners of silver about thirty-five
cents for every dollar that is coined
from this metal. Of course the
farmers and laborers will be the ones
to pay this difference, and consequent
ly will suffer in proportion. No man
who gives the subject intelligent
study, unless he is a demagogue cr
owns an interest in a silver mine will
fail to discover not only its utter
fallacy bnt also the serious injury to
all business that will inevitably result
fnm its passage. Once let it go into
Operation and the man who wishes to
borrow money will get it in this de
preciated silver, bnt when he goes to
sign the note he will find that it is

THE OLD VIOLIN MAKERS.
Tha Maimer la Which the Wood Waa
Handled to Oot Porfootlon.
The great violin maker* all lived
within the compass of one hundred and
fifty years. They chose their wood
from a few (Treat timbers felled In the
South Tyrol, and floated down In rafta,
pine aud maple, sycamore, pear and
ash. They examined these to find
•treaks and veins and freckle*, vAn-
able superficially when brought out by
varnishing.
They learned to tell the dynasty of
the pieces of wood by touching them;
they weighed them, they (truck them
and listened to judge how fast or slow,
or how resonantly they would vibrate
In answer to strings. Some portion*
of the wood most be porou* and soft,
■ome of close fiber. Just the right
beam wo* hard to find; when found it
can be traced all through the violin of
•ome great master, and after hi* death
in thote of his pupils
The piece of.wood waa taken home and
aeaaoned, dried In the hot Brescia and
Cremonla ann. The hotue of Stradl*
varius, the great master of all, U
described a* having been as hot aa an
oven. Tne wood was there soaked
through and through with sunshine.
In this great heat the olla thinned and
simmered slowly and penetruted far
into the wood, until the varnish be*
came a part of the wood iteelf.
The old violin makers used to save
every bit of the wood, when they
fennd what they liked, to mend and
patch and Inlay with it So vibrant
and so resonant Is the wood of good
old violins that they murmur and echo,
and sing In answer to any sound.-*
Detroit Free Prase.
SUesped ta a dead of Mad.
One of the mast perilous occupation!,
next to the manufacture of dynamite,
le diving for pearls The successful
diver must be courageous active and
endowed with great presence of mind.
A diver engaged in the pearl fisheries
of the gulf of California tells the story
of one of his experiences He had filled
a bag with oysters and woe about to
ascend when, looking up, he saw a big
shark watching him. To rise to the
surface would be fatal The man
moved quickly to the opposite side of a
rook, stirred up a great cloud of mud,
rose la the darkness and reached tha
aide of the boat Just la time to eeeape
the laws of the Mg man-ester. Had
the diver hesitated an instant to con*
eeal his movements In the only manner
possible hit life would have paid the
penalty.-Harper's Young People.
