CLEVELAND'S INAUGURA The inaugural of President Cleve! is able and concise. It is a pointed fearless declaration of his position ?ll the important questions of the d He reiterates his well known vie wi regard to the tariff, it is an on i as 11 unequal imposition on the people i mast go. The pension fraud most be destroy and only deserving and needy soldi or their widows should receive I government's hoon ty. The money of the country ts to maintained on a sound and ratioi footing, and his remarks in this conn tioo give little comfort to the rabid fi silverites and inflationists. He hits the sub-treasury scheme heavy blow ia the few sentences dev? ed to the evils and dangers of the he s?es that if followed to the ultimate co elusion would transform this repab into a paternalism. The spoilsmen will not be pleas* with his views on the disposition of ti offices ander the go vero ment,bat this not to he expected, for he was not : acceptable candidate to these meo, o? iog to his well knowo convictions c this very subject. He is a civil aerv? reformer, honestly and consistently, ac time servers and office hunters hat nothing to expect from him. The headlong extravagance of tl Republicans, who, io foer years ba* dissipated aa immense carpi os aa carried the go vern men t to the verge < bankruptcy is denounced in the folio? iag terms : '* Under onr scheme of govern meo the waste of public money is a crim against the citizen, and the contempt o oar people for economy and frugality ii their personal affairs deplorably sap the streng'b and sturdiness of oar as tiooal character. It is a plain dict?t* of honesty and good government tba public expenditures should be limit?e by public necessity, and that th i should be measured by the raies o strict economy, and it is equally cleat &2t frugality among the people is th< best guaranty of a eootiuued anc strofig support of free institutions." The address, as a whole shows, thal President Cleveland is determined tc make every exertion to restore the government to a sound condition finan? cially, to abolish unjost lairs to cot ofi corruption, to kill out h er i ?es and give the peoplo a government go&d pure and able His word is pledged for it and he is honest and abie ; therefore with the proper support from bis party we expect to see the pledges redeemed. WE ARE NOT INSULTED. The action of the Newt and Courier io diocontinaing exchange with weekly papers, seems to have wrought op some of our con rmi por orien to an un necessary degree. They seem to think that an ineradicable insult has been wantonly placed upon them by oar excellent big beaded contemporary. We do not regard it thus. We are not insulted because soother concludes a courtesy of long standing is obsolete inasmuch as it is no longer a source of direct pecu? niary beneu>. A? long as the Neicx and Courter made ase of the local col a aa ns of the weekly papers to create State correspondence, it paid to be courteoaa, DOW that local correspond? ents are employed it don't pay and is discontinued. We would most certainly take the Hews and Courier were we not io the newspaper business, sod because we are, that is no reason why we should refuse to do so wheo it refuses to exchange. The Netts and Courier values itself a< glO per year, we value the Watch mun and Studhron at $2 per year, and when th* Netcs and Courier preposrg ihst we pay the difference in price in ad ter tisiog, it resol ves itself foto ft 1 ness cfuestion. We wanted the 1 and Courier and are willing to pa; it io that way. This is the wa; look at it from oar point of view. How the change will affect the 1 ^and Courier is soother question, i believe that the change of polio ! penny-wise sod pound-foolish. 1 I will not get ss much advertising by j change as they formerly obtained ? I tnitouslyt aod the contract advert? i Will not be of as high class as the trjrtal Cotices freely given by the We papers, all of whom appreciated Courtesy of exchange. The Nc?t? and Courier will get t it pays for, and, if it is not too m blinded by its self-importance to plain facts, it will find that it was a c tale to cut off the weekly excha , Uat, before it is a year older.

It is simply an impossibil to have a decent roadway or stre especially one that is mach osed, exe npoo the fulfilment of two conditio The first is that it shall be p: perly drained. The second is that shall be raised io the middle and gi dnally slope to the sides. So eonstra ed, the water will run off into the si drains, and the middle will be left di But when the middle is as low as lower thao the sides, which is the cs with our Main Street, water will set in these depressions, and then slush a nastiness galore.

The north wind blew, tb snow fell and there were icicles haogio from the trees, houses, and the whis ers of meo, but these little aoooyaocc did not count when it came to inaugura tiog a democratic President. Mi Cleveland proved his indifference t them by declining to deliver his ioat gurai address in the Senate cbambci instead of from the open-air platform o the east front of the Capitol, befor which, standing io the snow storm were about 10,000 people. He thought and correctly, too, that if there peopl were good enough democrats to brave tb storm to see bim-few of them enid ge near enough to bear him-deliver hi inaugural address and take the oath o office, be was good enough democrat ti take off his bat, ?term or no storm, ant do it, aod he did. There isn't money enough in exis renee to boy from the President the won bible upon which he took the oath, o office in 1885, and opon which Chie Justice Faller administered to him tb< same oath Saturday. It is more valu able than gold or precious stones; i waa his mother's, and Mr. Cleveland bas never forgotten the commandent, "Honor thy father and mother," etc. Not since the ?eoood inauguration o) Grant has there been such a disagree? able inauguration day, but the only no? ticeable effect the weather bad was to keep a few men whose health was not robust ont of the parade, which wae over three boors long as it was, to disfigure and disarrange the boose decorations and to postpone the fire? works. Everything else went off ac? cording to programme, jost as would have been _one bad the day been as clear and balmy as that oo which Mr. Cleveland was first inaugurated. On the reviewing stand with the President and the Vice President were a large number of promioent ladies and gentle? men, among them Mrs. Clevelsnd Mrs. Stevensoo. It is difficult to say which of the democratic governors io the procession received the grandest ovation? along the Hoe of marcb, but Peok, of Wisconsin, Flower, of New York, and Rusell, of Massachusetts, have good reason to put the day down among the proudest of their lives. It is generally conceded that the Inaugural ball was the most successful, from every point of view ever held, and that the decorations of the ball root? were handsomer aod more artistic thao bsd ever been sseo here. The members ot the committee iu charge started oot to make this inauguration a memorable ose in every respect, and they succeed? ed. It was a great day for Grover Cleveland, a greater ooe for the demo? cratic party, and greatest of all for the country, beginning, as it did, an era of real, Mtuoo-pure democratic govern ment, not tho pinchbeck kind the republicans have given us. President Cleveland's inaugural address was a model of its kind. A plain, honest, straightforward statement of his int ju th* to carry out to its full est extent the platform upon which be was nominated and elected, aud par? ticularly noticeable was the complete ignoring of the Hawaiian annexation scheme, lt is evident, and particularly gratifying to democrats, that Mr. Cleve? land intend* to investigate that sub? ject more thoroughly than Mr. Harri on did befere committing himself, and a? he put himself, in his address, squarely oo record as opposed to subsidies and bounties of all kinds, it is certain that if Hawaii gets annexed its sugar plant? ers will get no Dojoty ou their sugar. The Vice-President, in hi? add ross upon assuming the chair of the Senate at the opening of its extra session, made an excellent impression upon the Senators as well as upon the public. His popularity with the rank and file of the democratic party is unbounded and what is more to rhe poiot it is all deserv? ed. He is made of the right sort of ' stuff A new-<a aper mao was ?oiling j him that he -opposed the dignity of b:s j office would prevent a resumption of the free ?nd easy methods in vogue io his office, wheo he was First Assistant Post Master General, aod the "boys'' were always welcome. R?r. Stevenson laughed and said : "My Dew office will make no difference. You boys will be just as Welcome aa io the old days. There Will be no sentry standing in front of the vice-President's room. Yod will not be forced to dive into your packets and fish out a eard to be transmitted to me on a salver* The door will stand wida open. There are sofas inside for you to occupy.

A Model Posse. At four o'clock Saturday morning, the 25th ult., Mr. R. H. Belser noticed a lurid glare of fire streaming in the window of bis bed-room. He hastily arose and found tbe building constituting his barn, stables and carriage-bouse in flames. His discovery was made in time for him to save his pair of horses, carriage, and buggy ; but all of the provisions in the house were soon con? sumed, the house being reduced to ashes. The mania for barn-burning seems lately to h ?ye become contagious among tbe negroes of this county. To such an extent is this true '.rut no one knows what part of his property will be intact in the morning when he retires at night. Consequently our people were ready to tnke decidive steps on this occasion. Saturday morning, at 11:30 o'dork, Capt. D. W. Brailsford received word of the fire with a request that he come te Summerton with an organized party. Three couriers were immediately sent out and in three hours twenty of the Hampton Light Dragoons were in their saddles with their trasty carbines, on the way to Summerton. They were joined there by Mr. R. H. Belser and several others. The posse then proceeded in a quiet and orderly manner toward the house of the one suspected. He was found at a meeting of the negroes a mile or more from Summerton. He wag tnken, name Damon Walton, mid his shoe Sited in the track made by the borner. The two tracks coin? cided. He was then carried to the trial justice at Silver, Mr. Thomas Owen, and giren a preliminary hearing, after which he was turned over to Constable Fairey and carried to Manning the next morning. Thus w*g secured ali the moral iffect derived from tbe promptness and determination of a pub? lic uprising, white the majesty of the Uw was kept supnme. No indignity was put on tbe prisoner. It remains to be seen if this timely demons-ration does not result in an observable decrease of barn burning in this county.-Manning Time?, March 4. ^? ? t ts i mm* For cure of rheumatism, neuralgia, cuts, sprains burns, stings, chilblains, sciatica, and lumbago, use Salvation Oil.
