"In men whom men condemn as ill,
I find so much of goodness still;
In men whom men pronounce divine,
I find so much of sin and blot?
J hesitate to draw the line
Between the two?where God has not."
An editorial paragraph in the
Clinton Gazette of X??veml>er 10
t?ears the rather startling caption,
"DrCrippen Hanged." Inasmuch
as Dr t'rippen's hanging is scheduled
to take place on Xoveml?cr 23,
our contemporary s,-ems to lie a
little pretnature in its announcement,
to say the least of it.

That Chester jury convicted Major

Why shouldn't Major Black, when

convicts? If there was any reason

was too mueh of a "gentleman" t<

in justice to himself, let the fuel
be known. Five years in the pen

let it In* known that Daniel I
Baxley, of Vox postnftiee, pro
duced more than one thousand
bushels of corn on ten acres, ai
average yield of more than on<
hundred bushels to the acre or
ten acres of land. Nor was thi.
a false claim or idle l*>ast. Hoi
B B Chandler, a neighbor of Mi
Baxley, told us that he helpe<i
measure and estimate the corn
and that there was no "faking"
about it. One thousiind hu>lieh

record can l?e surpassed in the State.
