DEsTRUCTIyE FIRE.

- NE are indebted to a friend forthe particulars Of
a fire on1he premises of Mr. PREsroS PRrIET7, a
young man living about seven miles Southeast Of
this place. 1t seems that on Sunday last, while
Dill PRUlErT and a friend had walked n short dis
.a.tce from the residence o; the former, and hswife
and sister-in-aw had gone to the spring near BY
the dweling,house took fire By accident, andbc-
fore discovery The flames made such progress as to
envelope the entire building and insure complete
destruction Of all its contents. The kitchen
smokehouse and stable were likewise totally des-
troyed, andthe family left destitute of provisions
clothing, or any of the ncccssuries of life. Cur
informant states that there was literally nothing
saved from the dcvouripg flames NIr. P. was left
without coat being in his shirt-sleeyes when the
accident occurred We sympathize with the un-
fortunate sufferers in this case, and especially
when we are reminded That they had just began
life and met with this sudden misfortune.

TIE DEBT QUESTION.

The annexed remarks on this absorbing question
are cucd from IL recent number Of the Camden
Journal and although the general discussion has
somewhat subsidcd we think that there are many
truths contained therein worthy of consideration
all times We have suspicion, too, that this ar
tcle emanates from the pen of gentleman whose
record stands for relief understood in the late
Legislature, and we are disposed 10 ventlatc his
opinions the more readily because the rcsul. does
not justify the measures himself and others pro
posed. We wish both debtors ard creditors may
profit by the suggestions made:
"All over the State is heard the cry of the people
against the enforcement Of the collection of debts
in this period of poverty and distress, excited by
the unusual number of suits issued in every Dis
trict, to the approaching and pending Spring terms

1861. Coming, as the crisis does. upon the heels
of cmanciraiion--tllc exhaustion of II long bloody

ricultural labor and the loss of crops-olhc debtor,

hope Of relief. Yet, ii must not be forgot, that up

money or property OF his crediIur-that il is not II

LETTER rRou GEN. DsAuazGAED

The following letter is addressed lu the editor oil
the New Orleans Times, ;nd shows concl;lsively
that this distinguished leader accepts the situation
with frank and manly decision
DEAR SIR You have done me the honor 10 call
for nv opinion relative TO the action of The South
under the Military bill. Having seldom aiken any
part in politics, do not feel we'll qualified to adj
wise on so moncn,ons q question; nevertheless as
the same desire to obtain my views has been mani
tested from various quarters, shall not ahrink
from the responsibility of expressing them, in the
hope that they may tend to quiet the public mind,
so justly alarmed at this moment.
In my humble opinion, We have bnt one or two
things to do-res;st or submit; the first is inadms-
sible in our painfully exhausted condition. Four
years of a desperate war have taught US that the
..arrument of the sword" can no longer be rcsorfed
70 by us 10 redress our grievances. We must.
therefore submit; but with that calm dignity be-
cominr our manhood aud our lost Independence.
Having been overpowcrod in the late struggle

fortunate South American Republics.

An OLD QUESTION IN NEw PHASE.

The Southern people are now conSlucrihS
question Which il not unlike that uas present
ed to them during the latter part Of the rebellion.
When it became evident to discerning men that the
rebel military force was insufficient to cope with
the numerically superior armies OF the North, the
idea of employing negro soldiers was suggested
1t was urged tha; half million goDd negro soldiers
could be put into the field, if necessary; and the
successful use of that class in the Union armies
was pointed to Gs evidence Of its practicability-
Gen Lee and other leading military men strongly
urged the adoption Of this policy 1t was contend
ed that the course in question was the only one
that could save the rebel cause, and that every
consideration of expediency and necessity prompt
ell its adoption But jeff. Davis and other ultra
Southern men frowned upon the proposition. IL
would compromise the honor of the South, they
said, ardlhat consideration outveghrd al others.
The idea of standing upon such point, under such
circumstances, was absurd and ridiculous; ont it
prevailed, and the negroes were not put into the
field. When the Confcderacy began 20 cranoe
and fall and when all nope WAS gone, the foolish
ultraiss saw their mistake, but it was then too
late. We do not believe tr.t the rebellion could
have succeeded even if the negroes had beer used
as soldiers: still it cannot be disputed thai it would
have been vastly strengthened by that !reans.-
Again the Southern people are called upon to
decide whether they wll use The negro as means
of helping them ont of difficulty. The Few recon
struction law offers to restore them to all their
former rights and privileges III the Union, on con-
dition that they shall accord ceStan privileges to
the negroes It they fail to accept the offer, they
lnow that something worse will bcrall theui The
point for them 20 dcci,lc therefore, is practically
the same that was submitted to them during Inc
war and il no;y remains to be seen whether they
will profit by experience. The same Class OF ul-
tl:.;sts who opposed the employment: Of negro sol
dicrs upon the pcint Of honor are row opposin 8
the acceptance Of negro suffrage upon the same
ground That class have diminished wonderfully.
and we are confident that their foolish advice wall
not thistime be taken; but they talk in the same
absurd strain thai characterized them before
There was time when the Southern people were
very sentimental and easily impressed Nth absurd
ideas but The matter-oi.fnct ordeal through which
they have passed has led ihem 10 take more prac.
lical and COMMON sense views They hcgin TO
understand that it is folly to qaibbe upon senti-
mental points, when everything they haze is AT
stake. Thsy see that it would be rs foolish for
them to oppose the new plan of Reorganization en-
sentimental grounds az i, would be for q drowning
man to refuse to be saved by The hair. Therefore
we exucct that they will turn deaf ear TO ths
counscls which are now oFercl to them, and listen
only TO the dictates Of reason and common sense.

upwards of one hour, proclaiming himself radical,

COL. THOMAS J. GLOVER.

4 writer in the Orangeburg Neps pays the fol-
lowing brief and erited tribute TO The gallant Off
Ger whose name heads this article. Col. GLOVER
was known and admired i'll this community, and
to hundreds of soldiers from this section OF the
State. Well do we remember his clivalric bearing
on the field of Manassas, and The enthusiasm ere
ated by his noble example on that cyen'iul oay
which terminated SO brilliant q career. "He leil
in trout of his regiment, in the hottest OF the nht'
rallyins his men to the final charge--6ith the col
ors in his han;ls-in the moment of victory. The
writer thus narratcs The leading incidents IN the
history Of this lamented officer:
After thorough preparation, he eutered the
South Carolina College in 1916, and at once took
prominent stand. His high character, his excel
lent talents, his winning manners obtained and Sc
cured for him all Offices in the gift of the students.
Having been the Captain Of the College Cadets and
the President of his Society, he graduated in
1919 With the honors Of his class
Upon his entrance upon the more active duties
of life. he pursued his hereditary profession of the
Law, and was duly admitted 10 the bar With an
ardent love for his profession, with practice more
men, with studious hubits and untiring energy,
with thorough preparation and ability in oil his
cases. ne produced q decided impression both on
the bench and the bar, and the proudest rewards of
his most honorable calling were within his.seach.
His native district, fully approaching tho grasp
OF his intellect and the strnng points of hia chnr
acter, called him to a seat in the Legislature. A
G
outbreak of this revolution he turned his back on
the brilliant promises of the future and the treas
urcs of his domestic life, and offered all these as
sacrifice on the altar of his country.
Having been elected lieutenant colonel of the
first regiment raised under the call of the Legsls-
ture, he devoted the wealth of his talents and of
his energy to its preparation for service. As its
colonel he led it on the battle field Of Manassas,
and before it on the day of trial and of victory he
met his fate Though wounded, yet under a
strong sense Of duty, which was ever his guiding
characteristic, he persisted in remaining On the
field and it was only when he had received his
second and his death wound that he consented to
pared for his end; sent soothing messages to her
who had been the chief joy of his life: expressed
his perfect confidence in the merits and atonement
of his Saviour; and after peaceful slumber this
Christian soldier passed to his reward.
In his death the State has lost public man who
had already given promise of great usefulness in
her councils-his district has been deprived of an
eminent citizen-the country will miss brave,
energetic and accomplished oficer-and his fami-
ly-who cen estimate their loss, OF sound the depths
of the food tide of sorrow which oyerwhelms
them!
