They say that crime is on the increase
since Butler has quit being Gov
ernorio Massachusetts. Is it. possible
tbat the Beast kept down wrong-doing
than hts pious sueces
lately, several ac
' eomrts of "gander pullings" and cock
fightingia various-places in the State.
We think these brutal pastimes should
be frowned upon by our people. They
are altogether bad ia their influence and
eau do nothing but harm to those who
ss them.
X. Imontco, the worl Renowned res
a'ffear was found dead a few days
ago among the Jersey hills. He had
wandered away from home in a dazed
eondhion, and finally sacco m bed to cold
and starvation. What' a miserable)
death for a millionaire, and especially ]
owe who has done more to feast the ani?
mal senses than any man li? in g.
A wholesome inclination on the part
of municipal authorities, ia our incor?
porated torres, to raise liquor Uceases,
ss manifest lu some towns it has been
placed at swell a high figaro as to make
it exjairalent to prohibition ; in others it j
has been materially increased, and the j
revenue from that source will be very j
large "the coming year.
Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, seems to !
> be on the - wane. Mr. Beecher says j
that his death will be the signal for j
^Esjntegration, and tba organization j
which has been the pride of hts life will j
soon be a thing of the past. At the:

There has already been some skirmish

thewaat of war for some time, and from j,

The wives of prominent officials at j i
Washington are squabbling over the ?!
question of precedence on State occu- J1

for nien to quarrel over such trifles, j
women ought to know better. j j
Some of the State papers are talking i \
about Mr;4W.. H. Perry, as a saitable ! |
candidate for Governor, next fall. We j i
have nothing but words of praise for j<
Mr Perry. Heb the son of one of j'
the noblest eea itt the State, and is ! \
himself an honest, capable gentleman,:,
hot we have a Governor that so com- i !
j?etcly fulfils our idea of what that of?
ficial should bs that a change would1
cause mcch regret.
The Republican Senators at Washing- !
toa have been sorely exercised over the 1
Presidency of the Senate. Mr. An
taony of Rhode Island bad some claims j
to the office, bot his health is bad and if j
he were to die in office, and some lu- !
nat ie should assassinate Arthur, Mr. j
Carlisle would stand next io the order ;
of succession, the bare contemplation of -

which gave them the night-mare. So )
Mr. Anthony was elected, with the uu- ?
derstaodiog that he was to resign. ;

The Lexington Disp<itch has a long j
letter from Representative Brooker of j
that County, giving among other thiugs,
a brief account of the legislation of last i
December, tn which Lexington was es- ;
peeiaily interested. We think (he:
idea is a good ose, and would have been j
glad for our members to have come face
to lace, wi:h their constituents through
tag col amas of the Watchman and ;
; tl
Southron. Lexington is fortunate in !
having such a Representative as Brook- !
er. The writer of this knew him well :

There was much suffering, especially ;
ki thc large cities and towns, among the
destitute poor, during the late cold j
weather. In Atlanta, the organization 1
of the benevolent citizens into a commit
tee of help, was greatly aided by the ac- !
tive leadership of the Constitution, and ?
in 24 hours after the first call was made,
ewer $1,000 had be?n collected and dis- j
tributed among the sufferers. Hacks '
and drays were busy ali of Sunday, j
earrying around supplies, and, when j
drivers would have to give up from cold i
sad fatigue, their places would be taken
by merchants, bankers and other lead- !
?cg mes.
At the recent Session of the Legis?

"SCHOOL HOUSEST
Some of the Counties in the State are
showing commendable iutcrcst in build?
ing comfortable school rooms ; and the
subject is sufficiently importaut for our
careful consideration. We think a
single day spent by any parent in the
! County, visitiog the hovels where our
1 children spend a large portion of their
? time, would bc well spent, and he would
j return home convinced that a radical
change was ne*?'*???* j in school arehi
I lecture. Tue mind cannot work to ad?
vantage while the body is uncomforta?
ble, and it ts impossible for children to
be anything else than extremely un?
comfortable, in the average country
school house. Generally it is a log
shanty, with clay chimney, unceiled,
cracks, leaky roof, slab seats without
backs, and windows without glass. How
many teachers there are in thc County,
who will say. on reading this, that the
description is a fac-siroile of his or her j
school house ! Is it any wonder that \
children become idle and mischievous j
with such forbidding surroundings ? [
Would it not be the greatest of wonders*,'
if auy improvement could bc made in a j
child's mental or moral character un- j
der such circumstances. And parents j
seem to be utterly indifferent to the i
matter. The State runs the schools !
and the State must provide school bouses, ?
seems to be the sentiment of many of our
people. It may be best for the State j
to do this work, and if so, the sooner j
it is done the better. Stop every school :
where there- is need of a comfortable ;
house. Take the money intended for
the school and put it iuto a building, ;
weatherboard ed and ceiled, with win- j
dows well glazed, good brick chimney, I
and suitable furniture, and see if your j
child does not learn more in one year j
with pleasant surroundings than he did j
tn two years in a tumble-down log
shanty. The inclement weather of the \
past few weeks has made this question j
Dne of much importance. For the sake \ '
af common humanity the little boys and i ;
girls should not be sent to shiver and j
suffer in the so-called school houses so ; >
many of us use. No more practical j
jtibject can be brought to the attention j
>f Trustees and Patrons than that of j
providing comfortable houses for our j j
schools. ! )

The Public Schools. j
Editor of thc Enquirer :
While in nearly every prominent town ! F
in the State a lively imerest is taken i t
in the public schools, the town of -c
Georgetown seems to be far behind ? t
ber sisters. Very little concern is man- j
ifested about the comfort of the ehil- j c
Iren who attend these schools here- ? r
certainly so far as respects the white j
?hildrcn. For while the colored schol- ! j
ars are enjoying thc conveniences aud : ?
comforts ofigB^well-appoiuted school f
bouse, the wrrrres are crowded into two j s
small rooms in an old dilapidated build- ! (
ing, and in one or two instances cbil- ; c
Jren have fainted from the effects of I ?
the impure atmosphere in the school . }
room. By a little effort thc Trustees , j
could procure a better house for the {
purpose or have one built at a small out- t
lay. A small extra tax would soon pay \ j
the expenses if the fonds are not uow j <
available. As at prcseut conducted, it ' ]
is prejudicial to thc health of both i
teacher and pupils. i (

clothes on the child in a blaze. She j
immediately tore off what clothing was I

while some children were playing on

by some of the children, and rolling j
rapidly down the bill passed rapidly ?

While thc above truths are not appli- ,
sable to all, they are, alas, too true as ' :
?gards a large majority of us
The prospects for an oat crop (so .
>romising ten days ago) is gloomy
mough lo-day, owing to the recent
reezc of ten days duration, which for i
?everity was unprecedented in the mern- .
>ry of the oldest citizens. Nothing 1
lone as yet toward commencing prep- ;
irations for another crop. About all '
,ve have beeu able to do, was to make .
ires and stay near them to keep from ,1
reeziug. There is some complaint as
;o scarcity of laborers-several of our !
'armers, not having been -..ole up to
late to contract with more than half the
[lauds they wish to employ. ;
I believe thc inclination of the farm
irs is to plant ns much cotton as ever
sven if the prospects do point to low !
prices uext fall. Better be sure to ;
plant so as to secure full barns with j
reasonable season?, and then, all thc ;
30ttou weean cultivate properly.
Land rent in this neighborhood is ?
quite remunerative to those who have j

Thc health of the neighborhood is
generally good, and although somewhat
cast down in spirits when we look back
at thc failures of the past year, and at
the doubtful future before us. methinks
1 eau see underlying ir all, a disposition
to forget the failures uf the past and a de?
termination to grapple with thc stringen?
cy of the timos ; use mot e economy in the :

Earthquake at Wilmington.
The following from the Star gives an
account of an earthquake at Wilming?
ton lost Friday morning.
.What is generally couceded to have
been the shock of an earthquake was
distinctly felt in this city yesterday
morning, about 8 o'clock, and was the
theme of conversation during the day.
Many dwellings were shaken very per?
ceptibly, and in s mc instances to an
estent to create alarm. We heard of
oue gentleman who became impressed
with the idea that the foundations of
his house were giviog away. Another
party states that he was in a close room
at the time, and that the concussion
was sufficient to agitate articles of cloth
ins: hanging in the room. In some
instances crockery and glassware were
made to rattle by thc force of the shock,
which was not confined to any particu?
lar part of the city. Some of the older
peopiesay they have heard a?d felt
earthquake shocks before, but none so
perceptibly as this. Some persons say
the shock was accompanied by a rum?
bling: sound, and one or two declare
that they felt two or three distinct
shocks. The main s! k lasted from
eight to teo seconds.'

New* of another terrible disaster
comes, namely, the wreck of thc steam?
er City of Columbus, plying between
Boston and Savannah, entailing the
loss of over one hundred live?. The
vessel struck on a reef near Martha's
Vineyard on the cast coa.< of Massa?
chusetts, ab"ut 3 o'clock Friday morn?
ing. A heavy gale was blowing at the
time and but 23 persons out of thc 147
ou board were saved.
Following close upon the accident to
the Steamship Celtic comes the news
that thc Germanie, of the same linc, j
has broken her shaft on the voyage 1
from Liverpool to New York aud has j
been compelled to return to port. Ger- !
tain prearranged routes across the !
Atlantic which steamers ought to fol- i
low would aid largely in bringing re- j
lief to them when they arc overdue and j
allaying the anxiety of those who may j
have friends ou board.
Kev. Dr. Xewman, formerly iuspec- j
tor of consulates under President. Graut ?

is again in trouble. Although a fol- j

New \ork city, and at. the annual meet- j
iug of thc church on Wednesday night
one of tho deacons asserted that the rev- j
ereud gentleman was not a Congregation- !

odist conference, as if the church in quos- .
tion was s Methodist mission Mr. New-1
mau retorted angrily, but was stopped j
by the presiding officer, wiio said, j
'Don't call our beloved deacon a liar; !
he won't staud it.' A new command- ;

logue believed in by that church.
"Our Women in the War."
j
The Zieles and Courier, Chu rles lon, S. C., ;
desires to obtain fifty or more sketches of the j
experiences, grave or gay, lively or severe, of ?
tlie Southern women during the tvar. Little ;
has been published hitherto concerning their j
sufferings, anxieties and privations, and the j
News and Courier wishes to make the record ;
of the war complete, by giving the American
public a just idea of what the Southern wo- !
men endured during the struggle for the Lost j
Cause. There was comedy as well as tragedy j
in their daily lite, and the object is to obtain 1
descriptions of every side and phase of a ?
Southern woman's trnls and triumphs, at ?
li?me oras a refugee, during the Confederate :
struggle. The sketches in question will be I
published in the Weekly Jfoics. Charleston, S. !
C.. under the general title of''Our Women in !
the War." The conditions are as follows: j
1. The sketches must bc written by South- ;
3rn women who were in thc South during the j
war, and shall be confined to a description of !
events and circumstances of which ilie writers j
liave personal knowledge, and with which ;
they or their families were connected.
i. Each sketch shall lill not less than (if- \
teen nor more than thirty pages of foolscap j
written on one side.
3. The sketches shall be sent, with real ;
name of the writer to I li e ?Vete* and Courier^ \
Charleston, S. C., not later than March 1st, ?
I SS*.
4. Every sketch that is accepted will be !
promptly paid for, and any Southern woman I
who ih-sires to do so can send in two or more i
sketches. ?
The object in view is certainly an excellent '
one, and it is hoped thal Southern women
everywhere will do their part in making tin*
undertaking successful, '"in order," as ilie j
Sties and Courier says, "that tardy justice j
may be rendered to the women who encour?
aged the soldiers by their pa tien 1 fortitude
and solaced them with words of cheer, and
who, through all manner of hardship, of an- i
guish, of misery, were faithful and true to the j
very end-and after!"

After ?ung Mercury and Potash treatments,
1 found myself a cripple from Mercurial
Rheumatism. Tried Hot Springs two years
without relief, and was finally cured sound
and well by the use of Swift's Specific
(S. S. S.) CHAS. BERG,
Hot Springs, Ark.
Don't Spill the Milk.
There is no use crying over spilled milk,'
sa vs the old saw. If you are not only bald,
but have no life in the roots of your hair,
there is no use crying over that, cither. Take
both time and yourself by the forelock while
there is a forelock left. Apply Parker's Hair
Balsam to your huir before matters get worse.
It will arrest the falling off bf your hair and
restore its original color, gloss and softness.
It is n perfect dressing withal, clean, richly
perfumed, cools and heals the scalp.
In Chicago when a man returns a borrowed
umbrella ?hey begin to suspect him. They
think he is working tor a reputation for hones?
ty, so as to be able to get trusted and commit
deviltry.
From the Press.

Courier. Walhalla, S. C. says: 'I have used
Norman's Neutralizing Cordial several years
and lind it superior :o any remedy I have
tried for all disorders of the stomach and
bowels, lt has the first place in our house?
hold and is indispensable.'
