This correspondent is ashamed of retnnining
>o long silent, hut long and serious illness
in Lis family has prevented an earlier
communication.
A great many interesting events have occurred
in the community recently, notably,
tbo very brilliant marriage of Misa Daisy
Bates, a daughter of Dr. B. F. Dates, of this
Mace, to Mr. M. S. Mitchell, formerly of
Union C< unty, and now a successful ?nd
p?p?i?r merchant qj CI if'on. The reception
at theTreet'lMice of the bride's parents was
on n grand scale, and thoroughly e-joyed
by the numerous guests. Among the visirors
f om Union County were Dr. nnd Mrs
W. O. Southard, and M<ss Carrie Southard,
of Jono-villc, and Dr. D Dugas Hates, and
Miss Millie McCulIoch, of Wilkinsville,
Qeo. B. F. Bates, of i'acolet, and Mr. nud
Mrs. J. N. Cudd. of Spnrtauburg, were also
prest nt.
Mr. S. M. Wood, formerly of l'inckuey illo,
has moved from Cow pens down to
Clifton, and we are glad to welcome him as
one of our citixens.
An excellent prize drill by the Morgan
Rifles took place nt the No. 2. liall last Saturday
night, the prize, a beautiful gold
medul, being awarded to Mr. Alan M. Sandley,
formerly of Newberry. The boys
drilled wed, and Capt C. T. Lipscomb has
rearon to bo proud of his compnny.
Everything is very quiet here in political
circles, though there sceins to be a majority
against a constitutional convention.

Oct. 20th?Mr, Editor.?The type made
me say some foolish things in my article last
week. For instauce : Sons weight for soino
weight; false promise for premise ; cares
for esses ; caring for searing; desert for desist.
My chirogt-Aphy is bad. 1 admit, but 1
think it is legible as some lawyers' 1 have
seen.
The farmers have had another delightful
week for gathering crops. A heavy thunder

section Friday evening.
I failed to confuiit myself last week,
either for or agaiusl a Constitutional Conventions.
If the object of holding a convention
be to add a properly cr eiucitional
qualification tor voters, I am opposed to it.
In the first place experience and observation
bave tanght me that, becauso a man has
property and has had educational advantages,
it does not M'ow as a consequence
that he is more lionoit or patriotic than his
neighbor who is poor in this world's goods
and has been deprived of School mi ning.
There are thousands of men iu South Car*
olina who are uneducated in the schools,
yet they are possessed of good hard sense;
trained in tbo school of nature and experience,
and cast their vote as intelligently as
the millionaire.
But they tell ua that theso suffrage qualifications
are only iutende 1 to reach tbo
Negro. Let ua beware, and not bo deceived
by such stuff. No Sta'e can enact a law
either organic or statutory that conflicts
with the constitution of the United States
'J he portion of the constitution, quoted by
Mr. Fowler iu his coinmuiiic?tion lost week,
speaks for itself. The ide* of depriving
many of our bci-t citizens of their only
weapon of defence in this critical period of
the history of our country; is simply preposterous
The working classes tlie men,
who produce the wealth of our country
should make a bold and united effort at the
ballot box, to overthrow the monied oligarchy
entreuched behind its golden bulwarks,
threatening to reduce them into serfdom
and slavery. Another objection to
holding *a convention ai mis tune, is mo
expense. The people are in no condition <o
< bear further taxation. Instead of taxes
being increased they should be decreased at
lenst, one half. Our ufhcials could live
bountifully on half the salary they now get,
if they would uso the economy and self-deoi>1
we, who follow the plow, are forced to
prictice. The Constitution should bo
amended, but 1 think it may be done by the
legislature and the people without incurring
extra expense. C. 11. 11.
Kelton.
Oct. 'i'.t.?There is being a great deal said
about a Constitutional convention of late,
the question to decide is : is it necessary to
have a new constitution ? leant sec that
it is, I think that amendments could bo made
that would answer nil purposes, and to have
the convention would be to put an enormous
expense upon the people, which we cannot
? stand under the present financial depression.
And as to the disfranchising of an>
person, it is all torn foolery, for it is contrary
to the constitution of the United States.
The I'e* Ridge Rifle Company has rek
__ cey^ed thirty new guns, which number is
*^iot sufficient for the boys by half, and 1 f<*ar
the assigning of arms will cause some hard
feelings among the boys unless we can get
more guns, which I hope the State will give
us. The company will meet the third Saturday
in November to see who will get a
gun.
Mr. Editor, I have made a few figures on
raising cotton which I will give below. This
statement i9 made upon an average of five
hundred pounds of seed cotton per acre in
Union County, which is a good estimate. I
find that it takes twenty eight dollars to
rnisc and market a five hundred pound bale
of cotton, and at tlic present prices it will
not bring over twenty-six dollars and twenty
five cenis. I will give an itemized account
telow:

Oi l' 29.?Wo had a consi leinblo thunder
storm with rain and hail last Friday uigbt,
though bui little damage was done. We expected
a cold snap w lieu it cleared off, ljut 10
our surprise it cleared up warm, and the
weather since has been lovely. Farmers arc
having a good chance to gather in ihcir crops
and they arc making goo.l use of it, but 1
have never seen litem so blue in all my life.
They hardly know what sort of plans to lay
for another year. Wise plans are ceriainly
necc.-s.iry with a oncert of action, one man
or even a neighborhood can't accomplish anything.
Dr.
Jerome Miller exhibited a certificate
in our town last week from Mr. Munro
Kirby, of North l'ncolct, that lie, Miller, had
cured a cancer on his wife's hand about two
years ago, and that it had never returned.
The Dr. says he is now prepared to treat
cancers, and c?n cure them every time. lie
warns all others not to infriogo upon his
rights nor to use his medicine as lie is determined
to protect his pr.ic.ice in this grand
and noble work of saving suffering humanity.
Mr. IM Fowler, of Jonca?i I", anil Miss
Julia Foster, of Cherokee Springs, Spartanburg
County, were married at the residence
of Mr. 11. H.Coleman, near Jonesville last
Tuesday, llev. W. L. Wait, of the S. C.
Conlercncc from Newberry performed the
ceremony.
Mr. Joseph Harper, who lived a few miles
above Jonesville died last Tuesday, lie was
about (52 years of age, and leaves a wife and
his aged father who lived with him. Mr
Harper was a good quiet citizen, a member
of the Presbyterian church and n good man
in every respect.

Less than four years ago my wife and 1
visited Mr. Lemons, who then lived at Star
Farm, his family consisted of three, himself
wife and daughter. They seemed to be a
happy fatni'y, and the hearts of the parents
seemed to be centered upon their daughter
and only child who was about 14 years of
age. They afterwards moved to Union and
the daughter sickened and died which almost
crazed the father and mother with
grief. They moved to the country near bothlehem
chinch, and not long afterwards .Mr.
Lemons died. This double bereavement
grieved Mrs. Lentous so much that she expressed
a desire to die and be with her
loved ones. She refused to he comforted
by friends, loved ones or the preachers
who visited her, ami finally her grief overcame
her, and she passed away. So th s
happy family, in lcs9 than four short years
have all died.
I said in my communication last week
that Miss Carrie Southard would graduate
soon at the Gaffney male and female Seminary.
1 should have said the Cooper institute,
at Limestone. l>r. Littlejohn took a

Opt. yOlli?About all that the people have
down on litis pari of iho mundane sphere
is time, and there is some complaint about
a "shortage" of that. Your correspondent
has had but little time himself?to write
news?having been taking a two weeks tour
of tlio county, nnd know now that 1 must
resume my old place at the "foot of the class"
of correspondents. 1 had quite a nice time,
heard a great dt-a', and, "learned something
during the tour.' All the country south of
Tacolet river 1 am pretty well ncijunmte 1
I,ni I uatu uniiintliiii<r nim in llie rnrk
iugs of (he go'd mines nc ir West Springs.
But it was so lute when we were there, that
we did not have time to get our "till" of it,
except that our pockets had their fill of the
products of the mines That was a noisy
place. The ponderous machinery running
steadily crushing rocks and dirt so fine,
that it could be washed through a fine seire.
Whether it was "much a do about nothing"
I do not know, but it is reported ihrt there
is made there between five hundred and a
thousand dol'nrs per week. I would enjoy
collecting around West Springs. North of
Pscolet thero is somo fine lands ; fine places,
but still there is 6omo very dull looking
portions, to a stranger. 1 saw many acquaintances
and friends tin there, and was
not entirely "away ofT" rrotn home. I heard
that the while population is a lit le thincr
than it was a few years ago, the factories
near by, but in other counties, also the
growing towns, have attracted them to some
I
i
? x t on t uo doubt. I hid n pleas ml lime
with Voi while up theie. but he did as most
ild men will do sotnetim-s; he "piichoi io"
on me, about s me tilings 1 ennnot "conscientiously"
he p. lie is a whole souled
gentleman, and os ple?>aut as can be, at all
times, and wi'l mike nli around him feel
pleasant. No need to say nnything further
on that linn, as ho is too wcl'-kuowu. 1
went upon 'it le Gilkic .Mountain while at
Draytourille, and thought 1 would "view
the world," but it was so smoky I c?uhl not
see very f*r. I cpuld see Gaffney, Lioiestone
and Blacksburg, but cauld not see t.ho
Blue ltidge Mountain on account of the
smoke. That day, having a little time while
cn our wuy to Timber Kidge, we went
around by Gaffoey's and ! imestoue Springs.
Our time was limited, but I spent a few
plea-nut moments with tie of our former
Union men, Mr. Gi t Uripg*, who is uow in
business at Gsftueys. 1 did tint expect to
see him go I was surprised, but ngroenb'.y
so. He was very solicitous for me to spend
ihe night with him, hut we had to get neircr
our appointment. As wc were leaving we
had ihe pleasure f shaking hands w.lh another
of Union's ' hoys," Mr. Ilamp. l'ridmoic
who is now working in that town. I
then visited the Springs, and would have a
drink of water direct from it, even if I did
have to drink out of a hit. 1 was anxious
to see the place, the Institute?having Inula
number of relatives educated there?the
lime kilns, the Chapel, and all ; but had to
take only a passing view.
While on that fide of the l iver we were
treated w th the utmost kindn ss, and had
the best of weather to navel in ttiril Friday
the 2<>th when we had some stormy wea'her,
and Hint night a had storm, and the following
day the weather was b'ustery. We encountered
sitnc rough country and roads
though, and the miles seemed to be a hundred
yards longer than otirs down here.
After 1 got on this side of l'acolct I fell that
1 was "home again," and we did head for"
Union, then home, and made a very quick
trip to spend Sunday at home.
1 heard much talk and discussion concerning
the constitutional conveir i n, but I
will in t attempt to say anything here about
it, for one reason, I ain net qualified ; but I
think the people won d not mind it so much,
/trori'ltd the cons'itution would be referred
back to theiu, that I hey might are what they
were doing, voting for.
I heard some ta;k concerning taking steps
to regulate the pr cc of cotton, to bring the
stubborn fanners together for tfn'ir benefit
financially, regarding the production, utid
sale of cotton, consequently benefitting every
other occupation ? legitimate occupation?in
the South. Mr. T. L). I.ittlejohti sliowcl me
an article from the pen of Mr. John T. ltod
<ly, of New York, showing the situation,
what it wotiM lead ?o. nn-l how it is impossible
for the farming tri'ernity to s and tip
under the present circumstances, atid
and advising the farmers to form a kind ol
trust to regulate thc.r products. Being in
the capacity 1 am now, I cannot say much ; 1
might make a failure if 1 did but will say thai
the Farmers' Alliance sprung from something
similar to this thing a few years ago. but si
many other larmcrs staid out, aud wouli
no? co-opc-tate, that it proved "no go" witf
them. While the Alliance is opposed It
trusts in the severest terms, it is Irutte thn
get fat on what is somebody e'sc's, ami ai
co ton is the farmers' own, cr ought to ho, ]
think they ought to control the price o
it us it is mho, supply an 1 demand
does not now. The all unco. 1 do no
believe, generdy want to do as soim
advocate, i. e. cut down the supplt
?uuless it is to cut down, to give place foi
home fool stuff's?making it still harder ot
the uuproducing poor consumer of cotton
hut they want "equal rights to nil, ant
special privileges Jo none." They knov
that cotton goods aro nearly as high ns ever
not falling in proportion with the new ma
terial and that ttie unproducing poor, arc noi
LfnrjitUd by our depression. 1 think then
are many who would do anything to be'tei
the condition of affairs. I am awaiting t<
see it agitated. 1 am never the last to fid
low anything 1 think is iho best for out
couotry. Begin the rolling.
There is no news of special inlercs
around here, as the people all know tin
same song "by heart" by this time, and
they nre almost always "singing" it.
The people here are blessed wi ll a gooc
crop of corn and a first rate crop of peas, ant
arc now gathering it.
