The New Y,rk Haald thinks should the United States seek to redress by force of arms the insults offered our lag, by the spaniards, in the West Indies, that England will be likely to embroil her seIfin the quarrel by esp0using the cause Of Spain. It says;
 IA London evening journal of considerable influence asserts that General Grant has run mao" on the CubanqnestIon, and expresses the opinoin that England and France will unite in a declaration ofwar againstsa if America should attempt to wresl Cuba from Spain, adding that President Grant longs for foreign war, and knows that the feeling pervading the minds of the Union officials is one of hatred to England, and also towards France but exist ing in a less degree in her case.
 The same journal states that within few days an English yacht would sail for Cuba and land the members of commission charged to ascertain the exact position of affairs Our cor respon lent states there is heavy storm brew ing on the subject-an opinion in which We entirely coincide, more particularly should an allied Anglo-French squadron appear of the Morro Castle"

II ,he rock pays no more than 15 per cent ol what tprospects from the surface to the depth of fifty feet. it will then be much better pay ing investment than the best contract awarded by the government this season and if one- third part of the energy exhibited by our busl- ness men in trying to get cheap contracts from the government, were direc&d to the develops ment ofour mines, that aloge would guarantee their success and give everything permanency that would insure us against the periodical hard times between pay>days. People would rot then be obliged to look forward with so much anxiety to the cay "when the paymaster will arrive, or the "quartermaster gets money,
 to collect outstanding accounts or convert into green backs their various classes of merchant disc. But some argue that "minirg is an un- certain thing while it appears to us that if mining be conducted with the same economy and proper management observed in other branches of business, it will be attended with fewer failures in proprtion. It must now be eyl' dent 10 all that business is liable to come 10 "staud stilt' at an early day if some interest be not taken to open up our mines. Compare
 for instance, the action taken by our monled men, with regard 10 mines, with that taken by the wealthy men of Colorado and yet there has not been an experienced miner from that Territory who, after having examined the mine at Apache Pass, did not pronounce it infinitely richer than anything ever discovered in Colo rado; still the Cooradoans make their mines pay largely as is evinced by the immense e amount of gold and silver that they expor every month. If our community were not so utterly deaf (beyond recovery we fear) to all appeals on behalf ofour mining interests we would be likely to refer to this matter more ire uuently, as we believe that out future prosper ity in a great measure depends upon the development of our mines, It Is true railroad would help US much, but the successful work ing of our immensely rich mines would give us much more local wealth and permanence, and be by far the speediest way of putting down the

Dx its conduct, this Journal admits total in

We commented at length upon the reasons given
by the Republican as to why immigrants dc not
come 10 South Carolina, and clearly drew dis
tinction between the carpet-bagger and the gen.
uine settleh irrespective Of politics. And yet, in
u half column of vapid utterances, the Republican
has wilfully misrepresented our position, and put
words in our mouth we have never used. This is
unfair. discourteous and in full keeping with the
class of adventurcrs represented by that paper.
It has likewise the hardihood to complain that we
did not publish "tbs whole of that article" on i'm
migration. and al the same time violates this
principle by only making garbled extracts from

DEATH OF REV. DAVID HuMpHREYs.

It is our mournfal duty this morning to record
the death Of Rev. DAVID HUMPHREYS, which oc-
CURED at his residence in this county on Tuesday
night, after an illness of few weeks. This exem-
plary servant Of God, through long and useful
life, had the utmost confidence and respect of ev-
ery one with whom he came in contact. No man
in this section has been greater beloved in oil the
relations Of life, and hundreds and thousands all
over the land will learn of his demise with sorrow
ing hearts, But he was faithful in all things, and
has served the Lord with undated zeal for more
than half century. "Henceforth. there is laid
pp for him crown of righteousness"
Mr. HUMPHREYS was pastor of Good Hope and
Roberts Churches for nearly fifty years, and du
ring al that time in and out of season, his
charges were never neglected on single occasion.
1t was expected for him TO preach his semi -centen
nial sermon at Good Hope Church on the second
Sabbath in October. Hs died in the 18th year Of
his age.
His remains will be inferred at Roberts Church
10 day, at 10 o'clock.

rHE PROPOSED COTTON TAX.

The Washington correspondent Of the Baltimore
Sun thinks it extremely probable that Congress
will levy tax of one cent per pound on cotton.
Why not levy q similar tax upon wheat, corn and
breadstuffs generally! They furnish necessary
sustenance to man, it is true, but the cotton gives
him larger part of his clothing. 1t might gore
the Northern OK, however, and as only the down.
trodden South raises cotton, her helpless condition
invites oppression of every sort. The correspon-
dent gives his reasons as follows:
.The prosperity Of the South warrants the
statement that the internal revenue receipts from
that section will be nearly fifty per cent. greater
for the present fiscal year than for The last year.
Among the notifications of the revenue Law that
will undoubtedly be recommended to the next Con-
cress, will be tax Of one cent per pound on cot
Ton. 1t is believed that such tax will yield fully
fifteen million dollars for year. This, it is pre-
sumed, is cogtated with view of relieving North
err manufactures, and would find favor with Con-
eress to the extent of enabling them TO repeal that
portion of the law imposing special taxes"

The Laurensville Herald in referring to the
Unionville resolutions, says: "The Anderson In
tegeneer is of opinion that blow is aimed at the
Rlue Ridge Railroad, and Anderson happens to be
one terminus of that line" Well, what does that
signify? It is none the less disastrous for the
State that such impracticable schemes are set
afioat and encouraged in certain quarters, not e1
aciiy the terminus of the Blue Ridge any other
important highway of trade and travel. We might
retort upon our brother of the Herald by saying
that Laurens ought to be set down in that category
but we will not be so ungenerous, and must con-
clude that his convictions are without prejudice,
local or otherwise, and this much is reasonably
claimed for the opponents of the move in Union.
On this subject likewise, the Union Times hopes
that we are as little Influenced by local Questions
as ITSELF AS we did not refer to our cotemporary,
directly or indirectly, in assuming position of
antagonism to the reputation movement, there
was evidently no cause for this pointed commen-
tary upon the language employed by us. Yet, we
are free to declare, since viewing the whole field,
that the people of Union have done themselves
and their local interests far more injury than it
was ever possible for them TO have accomplished
for Anderson or any other point in the State. by
pursuing the suicidal policy which they naugura-
ted. We trust that the Union Hmeseis satisfied
with its work.

DEPARTED this life September IA, 1869, at
his residence in Anderson county, S. c., near
Calhoun, Mr.. DANIEL MATTISON, in The sixty
second year of his age. He died of bilious cramp
collie, surviving only about ifty-six hours after he
was taken lie was born and raised within seven
miles of his late residence.
By industry and economy he had accumulated
an ample fortune, but by the result OF the war; he
lost some thirty thousand dollars in property but
still had enough left for good living. He was
good, quiet, unassuming citizen, o kind and OBJ
liging neighbor, friend to the poor, an affection
ate and devoted husband He Joined the Baptist
Church of Christ at Broadmouh, upon profess
sion of his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and was
baptized into the fellowship Of said church on the
fourth Sunday in July, 1912. Some years after
wards he removed his membership to the Baptist
church at Shady Grove, and lived consistent
member until his Heavenly Father removed him
by death to the church triumphant in Heaven.
He has left an afFeetionate and bereaved wife and
many relatives and friends to mourn his death,
but we trust their loss is his infinite gain there
fore we sorrow not as those who have no hope,
for if we believe that Jesus died and rose again,
even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God,
bring with Him. W.P. n.

DEATH or An EDITOR.

We regret to learn that the editor of the Horny
f.,c., c. p. BORON, Esq, died st his residence in
Conwayboro on Sunday, 10Th inst. He was a
young lawyer of much promise, graduate Of the
Citadel Academy, and ar ee6cer of the Confeder-
ate service. He was married only few weeks
since, and on returning from the bridal trip to
Charleston, was taken sick, and only survived
snort time. We had no personal acquaintance
with Mr.. BoLroN, and in fact did not exchange
with his paper but feel assured from the frequent
complimentary illusions to him by the press of
that section of the State that he was greatly be-
loved and admired. He was a nephew Of c. P.
PxLHAM, ESQ.,, and was native of Marlboro.

FACTS ABOUT ADVERTISING.

The Charleston Courier mentions an instance Of
gentleman losing valuable pair of eye glasses.
and upon discovering his loss, wrote an-sdvertise
ment and sent it to that Office but six hours be-
fore the advertisement appeared in print, he had
recovered the eye glasses.
Last week gentleman Of this county lost q
valuable horse, and in a few hours thereafter or
dered fifty handbills containing full description
of the horse and Offering liberal reward, to be
printed at this Office. Behold, ere the handbills
could possibly be printed and circulated, the gen.
tleman heard of his animal, and went home rejoic-
ing.
These facts illustrate the advantages of adver-
tising, and show what astonishing results can be
produced by the mere thought Of it. If the shadow
be so effective, how much might be claimed for
substantial and persistent advertising?
