How Soon FoReorTEN.-So lately
dead, SO soon forgotten. IT'S the way
of the world. Men take us by the
hand, and are anxious about the health
OF our bodies, and laugh at our Jokes,
and we really think, like the fly on
tho wheel, that we have something
to do with the turning of the earth.
Some day we die apd are buried
The sun does not stop for our funeral;
everything goes as usual; We are not
missed in the streets; men laugh at
Jokes; one or two hearts feel the
wounds of affection, one or two mem
cries still hold our names and forms;
but the crowd moves in the daily cir
Gle, and in three days the great wave
of time sweeps over our steps and
washes out the last vestige Of our
lives.

ARMY DEsERTIoN on THE PLAINS. -
The cost and ineiliciency of our In
dian wars is notorious. One reason
is, that they are always spcculations,
i'll which the worst sort of men are
engaged. Another is, that the sol
diers turn adventurerS in the new
country which they enter, and desert
OF the expedition of Gen. Custar in-
to the Indian country, it appears that
300, with their horses and outfits,
have deserted, and this Wholesale dis
Appearance has all taken place within
a month, the entire force being only
from 1000 to 1000 strong 1t re-
quires only simple calculation to
show just how long General Custar's
army can withstand this new enemy.
Desertion has always been epidemic
in the armies on the Plains, and no
adequate remedy has yet been pro-
posed for it.

PAINFUL ACCIDENT. Mrs. Wea-
yer, of Arkansas, on visit to her re-
latives in York District, arrived at
this place, on last Thursday, by the
9 o'clock train. 1t appears that she
had been informed that the train re-
mained in Chester but few minutes,
and being anxious to obtain her
trunks, she entered the baggage car.
when the train commenced moving.
Mistaking the steps, she fell between
the cars, the front part Of one car
passing over, fracturing her shoulder
and severely crushing her hand. DR..
Jessup, United States Surgeon at this
post, was Immediately summoned.
On his arrival, he took charge of the
lady, and kindly removed her to the
United States Hospital, where every
care and attention was given. The
amputation Of the hand became ne
cessary, and was skillfully performed
by him. Chester Standard

The Cooperative System.

We notice in our exchanges that
the mechanics in Europe, and in this
country, at the North and West,
seem to be fully awakened to the Co
operative system, and, from the ener-
getio manner in which they are
adopting the idea, they appear to be
alive to the fact that the drones in
the hive make no honey, and that
kings, whether of capital or country,
are costly luxuries.
A Cincinnati paper gives some sta
tistic concerning the working and
profitable results of some of these as
sociations. The Cabinet-makers'
Union began in 1852, with so mem
bers, each of whom contributed $50.
They paid no dividends on the shares
until these had grown to $40O EACH
They have divided to their members,
in fifteen years, $4,000, besides re-
gular weekly wages. Every share
holder now owns the house he lives
in, and the sales amounted, in 1865,
to S126,000 The Queen City Furni-
ture Company began only three years
ago, in 1864; fourteen stockholders
paid in $500. These $500 shares are
now worth $4,000 each.
We think similar system would
work well in the South. We need
every agency and help to resUscitate
and to develop our shattered re-
sources, and the above statements
no doubt correct-give great encou-
ragement to hope for success.

PASSING AwAY.-There are facts
that speak most painfully of the des-
tiny of the negro race in the South,
under the blessings of freedom. We
have one in point, related to us by q
gentleman whose word no one has
ever questioned. Mr.. Sparks, q
wealthy citizen of Louisiana, owned
1873 slaves, who were liberated by the
Government, and became scattered
through the State. A short time
since, he felt an interest to know
what had become Of them, and sup
ply the wants of such as might be in
q suffering condition. He followed
them up by inquiry until all were
heard from, and, out of the 1873, but
forty were found still living. We
commend the fact to the negro's
peculiar friends" at the North.

NORTH CAROLINA GoLD MINES. A
writer in the Charlotte Times says
that the gold mining interest of the
Western part of the State is attract
ing large share of attention from
Northern capitalists. The hotels are
crowded with them, and every train
brings mills, engines and machinery
to be used in working the mines.
About eighteen or twenty stamp mills
are up and icing erected, four or five
of which are now in full operation (;
and at the Huey Mine, they have a
ten stamp mill which is now produc-
ing $500 in bullion per day. Scien-
tific miners from California, with
large experience in gold mining, have
examined the mining interests of that
State, and have pronounced them
equal to the rich valleys and noun
tain gorges of that famous land Of
gold.
