li is not loo soon for us to commence te
talk about the Cotton States and Intermit1

next year. C. A. Collier, 1'resident of the
exposition Company, iu a circular letter
recently issued says :
"In Atlanta next year every people and
and every important product of the Western
Hetni-phere, from the Artie to the Antart
ic zone, will be represented, and many <>l
the countries of the old world will have
elaborate exhibit-. Some of the Southern
cotiutrie-. like Mexico, will bring not only

We sometimes thick s> when we contrast
our laws against dueling with the glad itorial
fights of the Uomaos and our laws f r the
prevention of cruelty to animals with the
bull fights and bear baitings of the middle
ages. The fr euds of the brute creation
have certainly accomplished a great woik.
Without relaxing our energies in favor of
the lower animals it is time for us to legislate
on man's inhumanity to man. Slugging
matches or prize fights have become so
common as to occupy their place in the
papers as a part of the regular weekly news,
and so popular that the railroads run regular
excursions for the accommodation of
(be sports, at. J cities sometimes pay large
sums to havo the match cone oil
within their limits. These fights are so
brutal that almost every time one or the
other of tbe fighters is terribly bruised and
baitered up and sometimes seriously injured
l'rizo fighter, Fitzsimons, actually killed a
man in the arena oue day last week. The
case was investigated, but what did it
amount to? The uianslaycr is still at large
hiuI having perfected himself in the art of
fighting he may legally go forth in some of
our Slates, and batter up and Will for pay
whoever is willing to oppose him.
Foot-ball, our national winter game which
is grown into so great popularity in the lust
few years, lias gotten to he perhaps worse
as brutal and is participated in by more
people and by a better class of the community.
Last Saturday was a great foot- I
balldny. The report of the game between
Harvard and Vale teams says, "The great
feature of the game was what may fairly be
called its brutality" and that "the trouble
was evidently caused by bal feeling between
the two elevens." Six men had to be taken
off of the field on account of injuries, "ue
of the players was found lying on the field
unconscious, struck, it is said, by an opponent
who gave him a tremendous undercut
on the chin. He was carried off the field
ou n stretcher, lie is said to have lain unconscious
seven minutes. Olio man's collar
bone was broken, and several received injuries.
It is estimated that people
witnessed this inhuman performance.
The report of the game played at Atlanta
on the same day says that it was remarkable
for "fumbles, for foul tackles, holding in
the lines and vicious tackling. No serious
injuries are reported.
Something more serious resulted from
tho game at Toledo, Ohio, ou the same day.
last Saturday. In that game a young man
named Blackburn received injuries from

extricated he was paralyzed from liis neck
down and a surgical operation disclosed the
fact that his spinal column had been frac
tured.
To a nmn at College some athletic sport is
almost nicesaary to health, but in the game
of football, as it is now played one develops
his muscles at the risk of his limbs or even
life. Some of <>ur colleges have taken a ?lc- I
cidcd staud against the game. We cannot
see why others hjywfafe. The legislatures
ought to^a'iH* rtie matter ia hand if the colto,
or else tlic players, when an j
Assault is c munitted. ought to be arrested
by tho police as in other cases of assault. If
you eenJ your b<>y to a college that allows

or to play foreign games, do not allow Uim
to play foot-ball.

In his annual report. Postmaster (ienerftl (
Bisscll makes some interesting observaPons
and recommendations. In the tirst place
he shows that the government has been very
much imposed upon under co'or of the law
in regard to second class matter, that a
great deal of matter has been an 1 is being
sent through tho mails as second class matters
which is really not entitled to the low
rate. The Postmaster Cieneral a 1 vises
stricter regulations in regrrd to secon I clasmatter,
but what is of more interest he is in
favor of the transmission of real and gen- |
nine second cla-s matter free of charge.
In regard to appointments of postmasterhe
think- that the lesser otlices might be
filled wlib less bickering and strife to the
neighborhood, hv 8>>me other method of
selecti n. In fact ho seems to incline (o
the somewhat agitated idea of local elections.
According to the report the recommendation
in regard ( > the secoud
matter seems very advisable \s t.. tho
election of postmaster* at small office? however.
while it might t ike a good deal <(
worry and work oil i f the administration it
is very donhtfu! if :t won! I lic'p matters at
the offices. The probability is that there
would he quite as niueh fu?> over the election
as there n >w i* over the appointment.
In some eases in the South however it might
result in good by keeping out negroes and
objectionable whi'c men. hut on tho other
hand these might sometimes he put in by
election when they would never have hcen
appointed.

Wr. need more cottages in town, more
houses that rent for from live or ten dollars
per month. Several home seekers have
heen enquiring lately f<>r -itch places.
There are several cottages in town for rent,
f hat aou.e of them are olJ tin 1 out of repair,
and others are inconveniently situated.
Houses are usually god investments. Five
hundred dollars will build a tirst-chus cot
tige. "ne that would easily bring -even
dollars and a half per month or ninety dollars
per year. '1 lie insurance on such a
house would he not more than ten d dlar.*
and tlie t ?xes not more than ten Thai
would leave a margin of seventv dollars for
profit. Then allow fifteen dollars l ?r wear I
and tear, and tho investment would still
net 11 per cent. .\ neat five hundred dol.
lar collage, on a good, conveniently locale 1
lot would bring ?7."i0 per Month, anl migh'
bring as much ns or $ '* <??. We lo pe
that some of those who have the land and
tho money will take tin- matter into consideration
We arc in nee I of more dwelling
houses. Wliilo . "> many good people
aro moving front the country to town, no
hope that no one wilt have to go to another I
town to live because they could not get a desirable
Louse in Union.
Tiib IJROWN-OninnES case lias" been tried.
We all remember the awful tragedy enacted
at IMackville only a short time since
which a young Merchant, brown and a
dispcu-ary Constable", one Gribbeu, were
killed. The Utown's were arrested and
tried for murder at the last Term of Barnwell
Court. The verdict of the jury was
"not gu>lty" and the defendants were released.
It was a very interesting triul, the
Judges charge to the jury especially so, bs
it urged that party fcciiug must have no
place in our courts of justice. Among other
things Judge Witherspoon said:
I charge you further that if I, as the
j rc-iding judge, or you as the jurors in this
case, or any other case would permit our
judgment to bo influenced by such outside
considerations other than the law and tlie
testimony, we would prostitute thi> temple
of justice. God forbid that the day may
ever come in South Carolina when a man is
cli?uiili a capital crime that lie is to tie
hanged l?v his political < r partisan nflilialion,
ll'ihat ever comes it will be ilie saddest
day ever experienced in South Carolina.
The last icfuge of every citi/en, higli or low,
is his appeal for a fair and impartial administration
of justice. I regret the necessity
to make this reference. I wish to assure
you in doiiu so that I do not for a moment
intend to intimate that there is a member
on that jury who will so far forget the sanctity
of his oath as to yield to outside influence.
I.et us come down to what the law
contemplates, calmly and dispassionately,
to the consideration of the case made by the
Slate."

P. S.?We forgot to say that our prices are figured on a basis of four

WHY IS IT?

ALTHOUGH the price of cotton is now lower than ever before, our
cash sales are ahead of previous occasions.
|= WHY IS IT ?
It is simply this : Our stock of Dry Goods, Clothing, Millinery, Notions,
Boots. Shoes, Crockery, Glassware, and Tinware is complete and
