The town of I'nion received a severe shock Monday morning?the Southern southluund was on time. We plead with the officials to have a care how they work on our nerves; the occurrence is almost unprecedented and the Mow came like a clap of thunder out of a clear fky. The dehauehers of our city and community, not being able to obtain the where-w ithal for their bacchanalian excesses, are forced to resort to the use of jnmaica ginger ?rot-gut.

We saw something on the streets Saturday that made our blood boil. A one-legged Confederate soldier was crossing the street; when middle way across, a dray wagon, with a black son of Ham driving, came near running over him. Hut the worst <>f it was that just before the wagon came upon the old soldier, the ebony-faced miscreant clucked up his horse and the maimed man was compelled to hop at a lively rate to save himself. i There has l>een a spiritual reviv; in I nion, occasioned I?y tin- ear net : efforts of Rev. It. G. McLoes an his associates. For this we in r profoundly thankful, if any 01 .' subject was stressed hy the evang* J list, it was religion in every da life. Sunday religion is worse tha none at all, and brings eve - greater punishment to its professo 11 The heights ami depths of hypo racy are reached hy him or he i who during the week deals crooke* ly in business, lies, cheats, < gambles even in the most refitu } | style, and then on Sunday si ) serenely in the church pew, cloth* * in a temporary cloak of righteou ness. A religion that is good f< Sunday is good for every day. ) J h Many towns and cities are layir | special stress on the matter of vi grants. The councils realize tin t the floating, loafing class of negro* ! furnish the majority of crimina ami especially the rapists. The imjrri is in iii'inrny or oreaK up ill 'class, who arc a menace to oi ' civilization. Ami they are right . with keen insight to the causes crime, these city governors ai i striking at the root of the evil, loafing negro, and for that matter white man too, is dangerous to an 'community. The vagrancy la cannot he too severe, nor its ei forccment too rigid. Make tl loafer get to work or move 011; gh him a chance to work where 1 pleases, and if lie refuses, give hi employment in the state penitei ' tiary. Sou ill Carolina Notes.
