Legislative Candidates for U. S. sena-

There are four prominent candi-
dates In the field. Patterson repre-.
sents the railroad mcnied interest :;
Noes to scalawngs; Elliott the nig-

Judging from the character Of the
several candidates, We would recon-
mend the Legislature to rcpudiate the
whole batch of them, an! elect a good
sound Conservative gentlemen, who
will honestly represent the interests
of tho whole State. Such a man can
be found in almost every County in
the State, and we think the Grant
party had better take the matter int
serious consideration.

The correspondent of the Charleston
Ne,0s telegraphs as follows. under date Of
the 30th:
There is in financial circles quite a
little stir over the relative value OF reve.
nue. scrip and pay certificates. The price
OF the former, when placed on the
market, is estimated at from seventy to
eighty cents on the dollar. Pay oertif-
Gates, issued by the Legislature al Hbi-
t4ns. are, by the resolution passed last
session, payable only in coin and United
States currency. Hence the oompeti-
tion growing between the two kinds of
currency.

officials there is a unity of action, which
is only disturbed by the clamors of those

against the Treasury. This tho leaders
are daily cndeavoring to remedy. but
they can't get the money to do it.

matter till the result of tho mandanus
applied for by the Superintendent of the

1t is understood that offers have been

that if the funds shall not be forth.com-

INoENDIARY FIRES. Within q week
past, three daring attempts have been
made to fire the town. The first at
tempt was made on last Wednesday
night. when an arm-ful of shavinps was
placed on the piazza Of the "Old Bomar
House. and set on fire. This old house
Delng IN the very centre of tho business
part OF the town, and being built of
wood and very much decayed, no point
could have been better selsctsd for a
wholesale destruction Of the town. On
Friday night following, another attempt
was made to fire the wooden Offices in
rear OF the law Office OF Evins & Bomar.
and on Sunday night the inoendiary was
caught in the very ect OF firing the
building occupied by Mr.. Leonhardt as
Q bar-room. His name is Lawrence
Mazyck. colored barber, who came TO
this place month ago from Morganton,
North Carolina. The proof and his own
confessions connect him pretty certainly
with all three OF the efforts TO fire the
town. He was once the trusted body
servant OF the editor Of this paper, and
his faithfulness in the camp. on the
march. and by the bedside during
months Of suffering from q severe gun
shot wound. are still gratefully remem-
bered. Mazyok has been drinking very
hard for some time past, and it is be.
lieved was 30 demented with liquor that
he was net aware OF the terrible acts

BIrUMINoUs Coat IN SUMTER. We
were shown few days ago, by Rev. A.
j. Stokes, of Camden, who, we believe,
made the actual discovery, a fine speci-
men of bituminous coal, which was
found about twenty-five feet below the
surface, in cut of the Wilmington, Co.
!umbia and Augusta Railroad, near Col.
John B. Moore's Wedgfeld place, about
ten miles from Sumter. Our informant
stated that he had tested the burning
qualities of this coal and found it excel
lent. Should this coal lead to the DISCO
very OF mine of any extent, (for which
we suppose search would be at once
made,) it would doubtless prove source
OF much wealth. May it thus result.

AN INTERESTING RR11o-Mr E,;sb,

AN INTERESTING RELIo.-Mr. Elisha
Carson, of our town, has in his posses
sion the identical sword used by Thad-
deus Sobieski at the great battle of War
saw. It was brought to this country by
Count Sobieski, in the year 1918, and
sold, with his other effects, in Charles
ton, where he died in 1922. Mr.. Gar.
son was in those days citizen of
Charleston, and near neighbor and in.
innate friend of Count Sobieski. who
had repeatedly informed him of the his
tory Of his unole's sword. When il was
offered for sale, Mr.. Carson, who alone
knew its @sthetical value, bid it off for
$18. Col. Keith, who knew that it was
Polish weapon. run it up to that figure.
It is quaint.looking old weapon, for
which the British Museum would proba-
bly, be willing to pay round price.
Who has not read Thaddeus OF Warsaw?
All who are acquainted with that bistori-
col romance will experience q glow OF
pleasure in looking at the sword welded
by the hands of the doughty hero OF
Warsaw, who afterwards married and
died in England.-Sumter News.

AN Episcopal CLERGYMAN EMBRACES
THE CATHOLIC FA1TH.-Referring to the
difficulties which existed between the
Right Rev. Bishop Whittipgham, OF the
Episcopal Diocese of Maryland, and the
Rev. Alfred A. Curtis, late rector of
Mount Calvary Church, Baltimore,
which eliminated in the refusal of the
latter to accept the pastoral letter of the
House OF Bishops, and subsequently in
the resignation of his charge, the
Gazette, of that city, says:
The course of Mr.. Curtis, since his
withdrawal from Monnt Calvary, has
been watched with great interes- and
various reports were circulated that he
had been constant attendant at the
Cathedral and other Catholic churches
Of this city.
Soon after the difficulties arose, how
ever, Mr.. Curtis left this country and
proceeded to Birmingham, England,
where he still remains, his object in
going there, it is understood, being to
consult with DR.. Newman, formerly q
prominent divine in the Church of
England. but now, as is generally
known, q member of the Roman Catholic
Church.
A few days ago Bishop Whittingham
received communication from Mr..
Curtis, notifying him of his intention of
renouncing his faith in the Episcopal
Church. Acting upon this letter. the
Bishop called together number of the
clergy of Baltimore. who met in st.
Paurs Church, on Wednesday last, at
the II o'clock service. Immediately
after the second lesson the Bishop placed
himself in front of the altar and publicly
read statement deposing Mr.. Curtis
from all duties attaching to the Office of
Presbyter or Priest in tho Episcopal
Church, in accordance with the canon
provided for such cases.
