Stand to the} Back.
ilfewi and Courier.
.Perhaps those persons who have
Wen hitherto classified as Democrats,
ind who are anxious to tnrn their back
incontinently upon the Northern Demo?
crats ia general and Tammany Hall in
particular, viii bs kind enough to an?
swer promptly and plainly one little
question : Where would the South stand
to-day had tba Northern Democrats
and Tammany turned their back upon
it during the Reconstruction era, and
daring the period of struggle and res?
toration? And where will the South
" be, in the near futuae, if the Northern
Democracy, who have never flinched or
failed, should take aa incidental South?
am deserter at his word and leave us to

Col. Richardson's Suggestions.
Greenville Km*.
Governor Richardson's message is a
document not. likely to increase his pop
?Urity io the State. If he had only
? issued it six months ago as his cam?
paign platform he would be to-day on
hts way home after having gracefully
assisted at the inauguration of his suc
So far as we caa learn from a hasty
glance over the document, there seems
ta be no thought of less expenses or
lighter taxes in it; the recommenda?
tions are generally in the direction of
X spending more- money and the Governor
teems to proceed on the theory that the
state and the people are in good con?
dition, that there is no real burden of
taxation and that the demand for econ?
omy and relief is empty and meaning
leas, talk. This is a very natural the?
ory for a. gentleman to hold whose
salary is handed to him regularly each
month, in all weathers and seasons
without deductions for taxes or interest
aad regardless of crop yields, and
whose range of ideas and observations
is limited by the lunatic, asylum at one
ead, the State House at the other and
the penitentiary and Charlotte, Colom?
bia & Augusta railroad tracks on two
Tba Governor seems to be io favor
of avery thing except the Clemson be?
quest. Tjhat doesn't cost anything, and
be is fearful that the State's honor and
dignity might be compromised by ac?
cepting it; bat if the Legislature should
- ace 'fit to- appropriate a few hundred
thousand dollars for a new agricultural
college which will not interfere with
any existing excuse for spending money
ba is sure we can afford it and will sign
Che bill with urbane alacrity.
* At the declarations of a gentleman
fiviag ia the State House and devoting
bis time to studying its interior the mes?
sage is interesting ; judged from a lit?
erary standpoint it may be called sac- !
fal as it is generally grammatical
aad entirely intelligible. As a mes?
sage from a governor, supposed to rep?
resent the whole people and to express
their needs and wishes, it is as com?
plete tad harmonious a failure as this
State has ever had the pleasure of pe?
rusing. And that is saying a great

Is This a Free Country ?
Caroline Spartan.
The Spartanburg Herald of last week
ttsid:
.'It is reported that two of the Pro?
fessors at the South Carolina College
'walked up to the polls on November 6th
aad deposited two republican tickets,
much to the disgust and indignation of
the students under them, is it true ?
Thia it a free country where every man
ts entitled to his opinions, lt is a free
country, abo, where people can employ
whom they please to teach their sons.
t4Tbere are many good men who are
Republicans and patriots to the union.
Bot is South Carolina, where Republi?
can success is fraught with snch menace
to all our civilization and welfare, no
Sooth Carolinian can at the same time
-be a. Republican and a patriot to
South Carolina. A man has a right to
bb opinion ; and be may bold it here in
Booth Carolina without hindrance or
harm, but bis opinions are a part of
bim and may, if he asks our favor,
prove bim to be unworthy of our coofi
deaoe."
The above would have been good,
sound States Rights doctrine thirty
years ago. When the old South Caro
lina College was the political school of
the Stat?*, instructors should have
been selected with regard to their poli?
ties. But now we have a University,
to which young men of all crr-eds and
polities are invited. It seeks to be
broader than the State, or the United
States. AH young men, whatever may
be their religious faith, or want of faith,
are welcome, lt is presumed that the
Trustees ?elect teachers wit!? reference
to their literary, or scientific attain?
ments, utterly regardless of their poli?
tics* If these professors voted the
Republican ticket, they had a perfect
right to do so. It has been the boast
of this institution that it is a university
If Professors are to be the subject of
the indignation of a par^e' .?f sch' O1
boys because, as freemen, tb^y cxerc:s*
their fights, then the university is a-*
narrow as the C liege wa> io the old da;, s,
and cannot hope to rire above a pro?
vincial high school.
The idea that yellow fever is one of
the most fatal of epidemics not borne
oat by the history of thc disease at Jack
ton ville. The total number of cases
thus far reported foot np a little over
4,500 aod the deaths less than 400.
Typhoid fever often carries off a much
larger proportion of victims, and diph?
theria in its malignant form is still
more fatal, while the statistics of death
from cholera are the mest appalling of
all. It would appear from the reports
gathered by Surgeon-General Hamilton
that, the power of fear ana the utter
panic which accompanies an outbreak of
."ellow fever are the most fatal elements
ia the disease. It is the opinioo or . .ie
mott experienced physicians that if the
outbreak of the disease c:^u!d be met
coolly, and the authorities were in a
poeitioo to afford the best known means
of counteracting its spread, the doth
rste could be reduced to one tenth
j's present proportions. But what the
Southern StRtea need most of all are
Boards of II alth with adequate power
?nd composed of men of the higest skill
?nd knowledge. Until they secure such
Beards the terrible story of Jackson?
ville will be repeated every few years.
A Born Politician.
A labor orator tells Ibis story :
'A farmer had a son who showed
no special aptitude for business, and
he was puzzled what to do with him.
Ile concluded to try an experiment,
so he locked the boy in the rooom in
which there were only a Bible, an
apple and a dollar. A few minutes
later he stole quietly to the room.
Ile made UD his mind that if he found
a>
the boy eating the apple he would
make a good farmer ; if he were read?
ing the Bible he would be trained
for the pulpit, and if he had taken
the money his success as a broker,
the father thought, was assured. Up?
on entering the room he found the
boy sitting upon the Bible, eating
the apple, with the dollai in his
pocket. 'The boy became an able
politician.'
Had Gone After Water*
This story is told on a Sunday
School teacher :n a certain back
woods settlement. She had a new
class of young scholars, the parents
of which had neglected to give them
any instruction in their catechism
whatever. Going to the first boy in
the class, she asked him who made
him. He did not know. She tdd
him, God, and urged him to remem?
ber it. Of the next boy she asked
who was the oldest man. He did
not know, and she told him Methu?
selah. So she went down the class
asking each a question and giving
them the answer.
While she was titus engaged the
first boy went to the water bucket
after some water. The teacher re?
turned to the head oi the class, and
not knowing that any one was absent
she asked the first boy who made
him.
Without hesitation the boy quickly
replied, 'Methuselah !'
.No,' exclaimed the teacher in as
tonishmsnt, 'God made yon !'
'No he didn't,' persisted the ur?
chin, witlrconfidence ; 'the boy God
made is gone after water.' The teach?
er gave up the class.

Give Him the Belt.
A wide awake traveling salesman
from New Jersey, Mr. J. S. Hooker,
who represents Beiden Bros., manu?
facturers of silks, performed quite a
feat at Branigan 's. restaurant last
night. On a wager with a friend he
ate fifty large Norfolk oysters on the
half shell, together with the usual ac?
companiment of an oyster supper.
This having whetted his appetite he
made way with a whole roast duck
as his regular meal Mr. H. certain?
ly seems entitled to the champion?
ship.-Columbia Register.
A petition from all the preachers in
Charleston has been sent to the Leg?
islature, praying for a marriage licence

It is a fortunate thing that the na?
tional census is only taken every ten
years. The compilation of that of
1880 has jost been completed It
comprises 19,000 pages and cost the
country six million dollars
The Detroit Free Press, says: "In
ten years the ratio of marriage in the
large cities of the North has decreased
eight per cent. This startling fact bas
brought out many explanations, but the
one generally accepted is that so many
men are crowded out of work by the
cheap labor of women that they cannot
think of marriage. The ratio will con?
tinua to decrease until only the rich
can alford marriage.
It is estimated that during the next
spring and sommer the Three C's road
will be completed from the Ohio river
to Johnson City, Tenn.f and from Mar?
ion, N. C., to* Charleston and Angosta
respectively, and that by the following
spring the whole road will be open from
the Ohio river to thc Atlantic seaboard.
Ashland, Ky., will be the Ohio river
! terminus of the road. At Ashland the
I Ohio river will be bridged nuder a
charter granted by the Legislature of
Kentucky, and the road continued to
Ironton, Ohio, where connections can
be maed immediately with all parts of
the West and Northwest.
