"REMINISCENCES or AN AWFUL
EVENT.

The Dublin University Magazine relates n
touching narrative connected with the awful
catastrophe Of the Rossberg in 1906, when
the mountain slipped and hundreds OF human
beings, houses, ,chalets, herds Of cattle, farms
and dairies, were destroyed in Eve minutes.
The traces Of this dread event, rs seen from
the lake Of Lucerne. are so fresh, that IL is
tifFietlt to believe that il did not taxa place
Yesterday; the utter ruin and desolation being
still more strongly marked by the contrast
with the smiling scenes around. There were
many thrilling incidents connected with this
event. In one instance was seen sleeping
infant in its cradle, floating down the lake,
the balance Of the little ark being kept by
the house cat, which remained at the childs
feet. The placid countenance OF the uncon-
scious sumberer amid the surrounding wreck
and the uneasy looks of the poor cat who
gazed ruefully at the waves, were full of
startling interest. Husbands were separated
from their wives, parents from their children.
But Of all the incidents Of that sad occasion,
the publication above mentioned says:
"One Of the most affecting is that of bri-
dal party whirh had just left the little church
of Goldau, after assisting at the union Of two
lovers. The joyous procession advanced
down the street, preceded by band of rustic
musicians In the centre, surrounded by
their friends, walked the youthful bridegroom
and his blushing bride, the pretticst girl in
the village. They he'd been attached since
childhood, and every one sympathircd in
their happiness. The young nan carried in
his hand the "boquet dc marriage"
About half way down the street lived an
old dame, the village. a.school-mistress, who
had instructed the pretty Katchcn in her
childhood, ,but'was too inhrm to join the we'd
ding tram. When they reached the door, the
young bride disengaged her arm from that

The representative population is 2l, ,832, SCI
and according to the late appointment there will
be 233 representatives in congress namely, IA
from the free and 80 from the slave States. The
increase of representatives in the free States
those In the south is four. The former in 1910,
had majority of fifty one; now it is fifty five.
Alabama will have seven delegates, instead of her
present number, which is six
The whole increase of the United States popula-
ton for the last ten years is g. 1873, ,O45, of which

free colored As compared with the whole pres
ent population, says the New York Commercial
Advertiser, this is 27.78 per cent. increase among
the whites, 2177 among the slaves and only TAB
among the free coored
The Commercial Advertiser regards this small
increase of the free blacks as a thing SO striking
as to challenge investigation as to the course of
so singular variation from the general law gov
erning population in this country
In the south. where this subject has been more
scientifically and sagacously investigated it is not
considered at all as very remarkable. The cause
of it has been found in the unhappy condition of
the free blaeks-ther viciousness, and the severity
of the climate at the north The increase of pop
ulation is generally considered by statistics as
measure of the happiness naturalness of con-
dition, and the argument from this postuate is
that the condition of the free blacks is not natural
On f0'nrable to longevity or propagation
omali as Is eA's percentage of increase in the
free blacks, it is not fair ESTIMATE of it. for a
large number of this increase has been maye by
freed slaves.
The increase of the free States since 1910, has
been 9, ,891, 531, including runaway negroes and
all-that of the whites of the slave States is / ;
GA, l16-which is only fraction less than the
increase of the whites of the free States.
When it is taken into consideration that the in
crease at the north since $40 has been swelled by
one or two millions of foreigners, it will be seen
that the white increase of the south has greatly
exceeded that of the north
The natural increase of the slaves will be found
to be greater than that of the whites when the
foreign increase OF the latter is excluded and the
runaways and emancipated negroes added to
the former.
The slave population is now 3,21o,1l in 1910

The Hampton Massacre.

In our route to Spartanburg Court House the
other day, we passed by where occurred in the
Revolutionary war bloody massacre. The bodies
of General Wade Hampton father, mother and
brothers lie buried in Sparanburg District, the
waters of Tyger river, where they were treacher-
ously murdered by the Cherokee Indians at the
commencement of the Revolutionary war. An
thony Hampton, the father with his wife and
daughter Mrs. James Harrison, and her sons,
Preston Henry and Edward, moved to Spartan
burg District about the year 1774. At the COM
mencement of the troubles between the colonies
and the mother country, 1t was matter of deep
concern to the inhabitants the frontiers of South
Carolina, that the Cherokee Indians should not
ga ee in the war. In order to secure their peace,
Preston and Henry Hampton made them visit
and formed an acquaintance with their chiefs and
head men But they had already been seduced
bv the British Government, and about the time
that Henry Clinton and Sir Peter Parker made
| their attack on Charleston, they commenced then
lincursions on the frontiers of the state
The Indians approached Mr. Hampton house
land some of the head men were recognized by
Preston Hampton. As he extended to them the
hand of friendship they slew him. to the ground
and Immediately afterwards they killed Mr.. An
thony Hampton, his wife and little grand child

name of John Bunum, was taken by the Indian.
from Mr.. Hampton 5 and adopted as their son.
j He remained many years with them, and was re
stored under The treatyof l777.
Immediately afser this massacre, Col William
