Allen, General Ticket Agent of the South Carolina Railroad, and Col. Dodamead, of t|p3 Greeuville and polnmbta Railroad, we got aboard the excursion train bearing the Sumter Guards, of Charleston, to the mountains on Monday r2th at half past eight o'clock witli the yicjy of spending a week of the hot season in Greenville and Other Ipwuo of the up country. In the good old times of personal sa/ply and no wear and tear to the Railroad we would have been landed at Columbia at 12 o'clock M., but by the fast schedule of Mr. Fisher, wc were whirled through valley, plain, hill and swamp at the rat?? of twenty-five miles an hour with scarcely time to note the effects of the drought upon the growing crops along the roaiL Here and there, how ever, we saw some hope iu a promis ing j fiejij of . corn or cotton ; but the general aspect of the country was dry and parched, and of the crops, poor and unpromising. In a few spots the crops were pot only poop and parched but grassy aud indifferently cultiva ted. From Orangeburg to Cplumbia we .doubt if more than bajf a crop either of corn or cotton be made, At half past ten o'clock the train gallantly rolled into the Columbia depot aud after, fifteen minutes of bustle, transferring baggage, eating .ice cream, etc., WC were comfortably seated in a beautiful coach of the Greenville train, and smoothly glid ing by men, houses, streets and peni tentiary until we lapped the woods beyond the city, and began to worm our way deviously around the bills find through the valleys that lie along the margin of the Saluda river, 'rwenty-livo miles in lyp hours prought us to Alston, the dinner de pot of this road. We hod often heard of starvation at fifty cents a meal as characteristic of Alston ; but we found nothing of which to complain?rich butter, excellent buttermilk, fair cof fee, raised biscuits, and a real St. Matthews* chicken pie, made up a meal good enough for a lord or king. Perhaps, however, it woe a special preparation for tbje jgumtcp ?uaids ; of this wp e^prega no opinion, giving Alston f.heN benefits of the doubt. Allowing fifteen or twenty minutes for this very necessary amusement, we started again, and, after a smooth jun through a broken country, with here and there a }}pai|tifffl fpsideucs coppipg i-hetpppf jj. hilj, wp heard Ncwberry announced, anf), looking out, saw the town lying cosily nes tled on the right of the road among tue trpes that seemed to form a beau tifu.1 grpve of evergreen oaks. Our position ut tbo depot afforded a fine View of the Court House, juil and other prominent buildings, while New berry College stood in the dis tance further north and called to memory the names of Irp}lofVfty, now of St. Matthews, ond a htindred pther good arid great men who drew their inspiration from her yellow walls. .Long live and fiourisf} this and all similar jn3ljt|]lic;ns throughout our country. The Company's Shops, with their laborers and machinery, their engines und cars, rnd their bustle and din, indicative of life, progress and enter prise, were soon passed, and then in slow succession Prosperity, Ninety Six, preen wood, Hodges and Wil iianistlm?nil up country towns of respectable proportions and growing business. At the last wc looked out for Mr. Lander's Female College, but beforo we could ' realize our disap pointment in not seeingi|)o building, (die whistle blew us to our scats again ^vliero' wc passed the time in Hiedjtq i ? ? .i.' '. i.? i.-jjjp.i '.aw- ?11-: ting over and over tue oue study sys- J tern lately introduced by the Rever ent President until the Blue Ridge mountains like nebula clouds skirting tbo horizon in the west reminded us that wo were approaching the moun tain city A few minutes moro found us, with valise in hand, making our way in the wake of Col. A. M. Speights of the Commercial Hotel, thiough the denso crowd to the street car, whero ouco seated, we surveyed the crowd composed of the entire population of Green vi lie, who had met the train to honor and weicomo tho Sumter Guards. After marching and counter marching and various other unneces sary mancBUverings both of soldiers and citizens, wo all arrived at our respective hotels. A first class sup per and a long conversation with brother Speights and other gentlemen of the city brought us to our sleeping hour, aud bidding '-'good-night," re tired. - Tuesday morning we arose with tho lark and prepared for a saunter about the city to hoc its sights and to enjoy the mountain breeze. Green ville is a city of 7,000 inhabitants, situated nlmost at the baso of the ! mountains and surrounded by a rieh farming country. The scenery about {the city is picturesque and often ap proaches the grand?enough so to render it attractive and awe-inspiring to one accustomed to the dead level of Ornngoburg. The people are hos pitable, kind and intelligent, posses sing en.-ugh of local and personal piide to make them boast somewhat of themselves and much of their city. Business is growing, stores are large and filled with good*, and the spirit of enterprise is on the increase, mani festing itself in old successful facto ries and the building of new ones. We returned in time for the train, and, leaving this really delightful place, came in three hours to Hodges, where, nftcr greeting the dear ones, we rested until Saturday. Orangeburg is creditably represent ed both at Hodges and Cokesbury, two miles east. In the latter Dr. Brantley Hart and Prof. Berg are do ing well, one ns merchant, the other as teacher of music, also Mr. Canna dy, formerly of Jamison's; in the former, Mr. Lewis Dantzler and Dr. J. L. Sheridan, successful as planter and druggist, are carving their names deep on the hearts of their neighbors. Old associations again became famil iar: and the companionships and friends of our school days were re nejycd in the persons of Stirling Gra don, Ludlow. and Fletcher Hodges, Dr. Frank (Jury and Dr. W. C. Nor wood, of vcratrum vi vide notoriety. Amid such scenes and enjoyments we lingered until Saturday morning ten o'clock, when we said "good-bye," and once more turned our face to ward Orangeburg. Along the entire line of road from Columbia to Greenville the drought has been more or less disastrous to the crops. Fiom Columbia to Alston corn is small, parched and much of it fruitless, while cotton promises, perhaps, half a crop ; from Alston to Ninety-Si?;, the seasons have been more favorable, and both cotton und corn, with timely rains, may meet the necessary demands of the people ; aud from Ninety-Six to Greenville the prospect is indeed discouraging? ?elds of corn are burnt up beyond the possibility of recovery, and cotton, though, in good condition, is small and may yield, possibly, the fourth of a crop. Oak trees, in great num bers, killed by the drought, may be seCn everywhere in the forest, streams and springs are dry, the soil is thirs ty* vegetation drooping and scorched, and the entire face of the country presents an sridncss that . is painful in the extreme, \ similar condition of things picvailo in muny portions of Georgia and North Carolina and perhaps more or Icsb throughput the cotton region. In view of these things let Orange burg farmers take courage and go on fur they are as well oil and belter than those of many other sections. A support seems to be vouchsafed to our people whilst poverty stares oth ers in the face. Hon. T. \y. Gloyer, At a meeting pf tho Orangeburg bar, held at General fzlar's olljce on Tuesday last, this gentleman was unanimously nominated for appoint ment by the Governor to the olllce of Master of Orangeburg County, made vacant by the recent death of Mr. W. M. Hutson. Few men possess the combination of qualifications neces sary for an cOicient ofljeer \\\ |hp same degree as -judge Gloyer, and our coupty \a fortunate, in this initia tory step, to secure the services of so competent up offjciul. The oHJce is one of great labor and precision and often involves, \\}\\ most intricate points of law 0,3 well as large amounts of money ami \\o one can meet the de mands so well and ?o satisfactory as Judge T. W. Glover,' purman Unlyoreity. The many friends of. th jo p?ble in stitution of learnipg in pur county will regret the nepessity which forced the entire Faculty to resign their chairs. We trust that this sudden ciosing the doors of Furman may be only temporary, and wo know it wili be so, if our Baptist friends will heartily espouse the cause of a Col lege which has done so much for their church and the State at large?for the church in promoting piety by teaching the young those great religi ous principles which make them earn- ] est laborers for the spread of the gos pel through the country ; and for the State by eduoating the morals and hearts as well as the intellect and minds of her young men, and thus I prepare them for the highest position of an honorable citizenship. It is diflicuit to estimate the value of an institution, like Furman University, that has been tho foster-mother of so many, of our children and the nursery uf every virtuous principle that con stitutes true patriotism. Indeed to close the doors of this institution per manently would lie a calamity, the evils of which neither the Baptist Churoh nor the State is prepared to realize. We hope, therefore, that the friends of tho University in Orange burg County will rally to its support and, by well directed efforts and a ju dicious working together, lift it cut of trouble and once more place it on the high road to usefulness and pros perity. It matters not now what may have been the mistakes of the past, the present concern of the church is to meet the pressing needs of the institution. Lot those, who have given bonds and are delinquent in payments, make them now, and those, who have not yet given aid to a worthy cause, postpone or withhold their help no longer. At the low rates ot tuition, demanded by the public, it in impossible to sustain a well appointed college, and the deflci ciency must be supplied by friends as a permanent endowment fund or by annual collections in the different charges of tho church. We believe that tho first is impracticable because of the poverty of tho people; they, though willing, will not be able to pay interest and installments at the oppointed time, aud collections are not only feasible and practicable but becomes an actual duty in order that our children may receive and enjoy a Christian education. Wo hopo that the recent notion of the trustees at Columbia of selecting three profes sors and two tutors will enable them to continue tbe college on the sys tem of free tuition. An arrangement is being made to furnish good board for boys at $10 per month which can be easily done in a country.where liv ing is proverbially cheap. With free tuition and $10 per month board what prevents a community from educat ing their children. Mr. W.UM."Hut8on. No event ever brought deeper sad ness to a community than tho death of Mr. Hut8on, which occurred at his residence on the morning of July 18, to the people of Orangeburg. He was a native of Beaufort, but lived more than thirty years in his adopted town where his eminently consistent life, correctness of manner and puri ty of character won the love and hon or of the people among whom he liv ed, and now being dead, their deep est sorrow of heart. Mr. Hutson was a Christian gentle man of no inferior type. Quiet, un obtrusive and undemonstrative, his arena was confined mainly to the pur suit of his profession, in which he manifested a skill and intellectual power attained by few men of his day. The desire for office and the excite ment of politics had no attractions for a mind trained in tho school of refinement, or for a heart cherishing a moral principle that scorned fraud and corruption in whatever garb they might be preecnted. Consequently, I Mr, Hutson was found seldom as an ofllce holder or an aativo worker in political campaigns. Pure patriotism was not merely professed by him, but was a controlling principle of action, aud in Mr. Hutson was manifested tho highest type of citizenship. To us, meekness, gentleness and patience were cardinal virtues with Mr. Hut son, about which all other graces played in beautiful symmetry, making up both his character and reputation. During the war Mr. Hutson was Pro vost Marshall and for the last year ho has been filling Mi? important oilice of Master for Orangeburg Coun ty. In bpth positions the duties were discharged with skill, fairness aud great satisfaction to all with whom he enme in contact. H|a funeral services were perform ed at the Presbyterian church by Rev. jjprjare assisted by Rev. O. A. Darby of thp Methodist church. In tho presence of a large number of our cil37ens this old and revered land mark of Grnngebnrg'a history was laid under tho nod in l{)c adjoining grave yard. ? Hayti. Tho news which roach us from this quarter of the world is anything but creditable for tho capacity of tho ne gro race to govern themselves. This island, containing a population of $700,000 negroes, is tho.scut of two petty independent republics, Hayti and San Domingo, and from the da) of their organization have been in an unsettled political condition more 01 less. Rival factions, lead by ambi tious and often unscrupulous leaders, keep the people in constant turmoil. Some times tho streets of their towns and cities aro tho scenes of most in human slaughters, as was the caso at Port au Prince recently when the in habitants slaughtered each other for five days without mo'cy and without, regard to age or sex. These petty strifes, though short, are severe and fatal to the material prosperity of the citizens. Indeed, it seems that when ever the race is loft to their own con trol, intestine dirorder and conse quent poverty and degradation fol low. If any quarter of the world bo adapted to the condition of the negro these islands arc. Yet as a people capable of self-government this race is a failure. We crust the history of the race now being written in various quarters of the world will teach many wholesome lessons and sober truths to the colored pcoplo in our own coun try which will make them a better, wiser and a more prosperous people than those of their race elsewhere. The Mayoralty. In another column will be found a communication placing in nomina tion for this otllce the name of the present incumbent, Mr. J. W. Mose ley. We heartily endorse the nomi nation and would call upon the citi zens of our town to bestir themselves in the matter. The Radicals have already foreshadowed their policy j and plans, thus giving us the vantage ground if TVs will but step in and oc cupy it. Mayor Moseiey possesses ull the qualifications of a good and successful officer, and with a council about him composed of as efficient men as those of the present 1 ody, our people, white and colored, need feel no apprehension us to the just and successful administration of the affairs of our city. It is time?high time, that steps were taken to meet any opposition that may be made. We know not what plans may be in the minds of others, but our own opinion isiihat the Democratic parly should takJSthc-ihitiatory in the mat ter, and, therefore, we say let the Town Club meet and place a ticket in the ficldjtkat will unify and har monize cvdn^clement of the party. Success is muiin our power. Shall wo fall short of it from indifference and inactivity. Yellow Fever. In our last issue the hope was en tertained that this terrible scourge would die in its inception at Mem phis, but recent advices from the West dispel oven this lingering hope. We learn that the fever cases have increased, and increased rapidly, that the railroad trains arc jammed with people flying from the infected city, and that business is paralyzed by reason of the merchants closing their stores. White wo yet hope that the Mississippi Valley may be spared a scourge so fatal as that of last sum mer and fall, we trust that every ef fort will be made to confine tho fever to its present localities. It now bo comes the imperative duty of those towns connected with Memphis or New Orleans by river or railroad to maintain a strict quarantine over all goods and persons coming from the infected cities, and nlsa the duty of all cities and towns to adopt strin gent sanitary regulations by which cleanliness may be had throughout their limits. Exactly Right. Tbj Louisville Courier-Journal de precates the effort of the soft-money ed men to force their views upon the Democratic party, as indicated in; Ohio and elsewhere, and advises sticking to our uuity and our colors, making tho fight on ground wc can all stand on, and leave the future, when dangers are less pressing and numerous, to take care of the finances. There is sound wisdom in this. If it needs enforcement, our political friends can profit by tho course of their opponents on tho money ques tion. Sherman and all his followers arc constantly insisting that the pres ent condition of things should bo al lowed to have a fair trial, and that limp and experience will work the problem satisfactorily. Very well, why not take them nt their word, and fight out financial questions hereafter? As tho journal quoted well says, the Democrats can get up a fight among themselves over tho finances at any timo. But why do it now, when their opponpnts themselves arc saying hands off?
