The GOin~bill a Good

History tolls but one story of men
in power, aud that is the story of
their oorruptiou-a corruption greater
In proportion to the responsibility of
their power, Though we are not,
therefore, Of the number Of weak.
tnc"f' w(o hnve Lost uii faith ia ii g
~ y the p.csent regime de-.
lns ao.s lnspired by patriotic virtuo
(for man isa most Inconsistent animal,
aud even tho worst men som mctimcs do
justice) wo do, nevertheless, timidly
confess, that We have stronger hope 8
ofconsiderable wisdom being dicsat.
cd to them by their interest and an. .
bition We, therefore, try to avoid
going of half-cocked, as often docs our
contemporary, the Charleston Neus.
we examine a measure closely, be-
fore we oppose it simply because Of
its originating with radicals, and We
do not despise tho ~isdom Of the ser.
pent, because unaccompanied by the
harmlessness of tn doye. The para.
Bile Of the unjust steward has its les .
SON for the opposition in South Caro-.
lima now.st sah 3as
Tho coin bill, whereby the interest
on State stocks and bonds will hcrar.
ter be paid in coin, has passed the
House. 1t is q good bill, evon if bad
men make money out of it. We vol.
unteer this opinion in the ace Of the
Democrats press and party, and if
thore be any ono, therefore, to whom
heslobby is bound, BY tho honor of a
thief and u gentleman, to send two or
three hundred dollars as Christmas
present, through tho Honorable Wash
iugton Barber, though we would pre-.
fer3it by express, it is to ourselves.
We say, the bill isa good one, be-
cause considered in one aspect alone
saves it over $4o0,o0o during tho next
two years TO the S;sss. Tie State
must, by'tho sale of its bonds at pres.
ent prices,65 on tho 100, issue bonds
20 the extent Of over 100000, to
meet its stocks and bonds to tho
amount of 100000 that must be
paid in 1879 aud 1871. Now u bond i,
bearing coin interest at four and q
half per cont, would command hun.
dred dollars 10 currency so that
100000 Of such four and q half per
cent ooin.interests bonds would meet
tn, debt Immediately pressing. The
annual ann Interest on 100000, il coin,
At four and half pcr cent, would, be
'3S,oo0s Whereas, the. aunual interest
PatsixSper cent on $1,000, 700, would
be $4,000 ID currency. . A saving,
then, results of,oyor aS4Oo, COCOON tho
principal, Aand Of at, least ,25, 900 in
currency ins annual interest. ~ M We
therefore trust that this iateress in

Crumbs.


The private dwelling Of our towns
man, Mr.. james A. B.ice, was enter
ed on Wednesday night last, and
tine gold watch, pockctbook contain
ing money and several other articles
were stolen. The thief entered, the
house from the dining room window
while the owners Of the premises were
asleep and SO stealtlily did he ma
nocuvre-that tho loss was not kuos
until tho following morning. It is
thought by some that tho thief or
thieves used chloroform on the in
matcs--and thereby succeeded in car
rying oft the spoils without detection.
These midnight rybbcries have occur
red frequently Of late and it is time
for our citiz 'ns TO be on the alert.
Forewarned, forcarmcd. We sim
cerely hope the thief or thieves may
be detected and punished severely.
We are most certainly progressing.
Last Thursday night was an. epoch in
the history of old Fai. field atsleast
we think So, as far back as We can&re-
member, DO not know Of having heard
of so many marliagesin q single night
before We have it from, good au-
'hority, that there we're not loss than
four marriages solemnized on Thurs
day last. Were there ever better
sigos Of the onward prosperity of our
old District, as at present. Surely
not. .yi.slH I.5 .-s
The weather for the past day or
two has been quite flokle. Warm
and balmy, az in June, at times.
Then cold, dismal and dreary, with
slight falls of rain So far We have had
no snow, but have locked for it fre.
quently.
Numbers of rockets and roman can
dies were fred last night. Have as
much fun as you please, boys, but
have care, and prevent if possible
promiscuous firing, as it epdangors
the eyes of pedestrians, and threatens
the destruction of buildings.
An alarm of fire was given on Mon
day evening last, caused from the
burning of the chimney of the Jail. "
The first instalr,ent Of German i'm
migrants for Fairfield, arrived in
Wlnnsboro Yesterday. They are for
Mr.. &. II. McMaster. We hope more
ofonr farmers will follow the example
of Mr.. McMaster.

the strap loose with his teeth and 20

There is q we'll in the yard from which

few days ago the pump-a force pump
worked by brakes-gOt out of order, and
no water could } g obtained. The ami
mails were taken to the creek close by

to drink, and was taken to his stall and
tied as usual. In a few minutes he de-
iberately united his halter, walked over
to the pump, and finding no water in the
trough where he was accustomed to
drink, at one seized the brake with his
teeth and worked it up and down sever
al times, then put his nose to the spout,
evidently expecting water to come

CONGRESSIONAL.

The Georgia bill passed the Senate
last Saturday, after a discussion last
week, OF two or three days. The
radical leaders are againiat the work
OF reconstruction, that is, putting the
negroes into power 1t seems to be
attended with innumerable difficult
ties.
The committee on currency OF the
House had a meeting last Friday.
Nothing, was arrived at; and they
adjourned till after the Holidays.
The principal measures before them
are Ingersoll's bill to issue n millions
more of greenbacks and Morrilrs to
do banking on II per cent bonds,
Senators Sherman and Thurman
had q warm discussion on the 10th
as to the position OF the People of
Ohio on the Negro Suffrage question.
Judge Thurman contended they were
opposed, while Sherman claimed the
late election was decided upon that
issue and the people ofthe State were
largely in favor of Colored Suffrage.
Z. On the 18th, the House Committee
on Appropriations found it necessary
to report:s deficiency bill to make up
for short expenditures the last year.
They find that the Legislative, Neu'
tral and Judicial appropriations will
have to be increased three millions
for the next fiscal. year. Radical
glory is costly.
