and hope our colored citizens will re-
fleet before taking step which CALI
not confer the least possible benefit
npen them. either as class or indl-
vidually, while it may possibly IN
volve them in trouble, to the detri'
ment of both races, and cause u re-
petion of the troubles of only two
years ago, from which this immediate
section has not yet recovered. Sure
ly, neither the whites nor the blacks
desire a recurrence of those troublous
times. We do not speak menacingly.
We are only advising what we Be
leve for the good OF all. Let us
profit by past experience. Anv "t
our colored citizens, upon the least
reflection, cannot but see what will
be the effect OF arming and organic
ing their own race to the exclusion OF
the whites. The result will be just
as crelul in the future as it has been
in the past. Here, all is now peace
full and tranquil. Never were the
whites and blacks in this section NOV
ing along more amicably together,
and it behooves all of either race,
for the welfare Of both, to DO moth
ing to mar the present COOL feeling.
The colored people cannot urge means
of self protection as a reason tol
this step, for no citizens were ever
more fully in the enjoyment of their
rights than the blacks Of South Car
olina to-day; and we feel fully as
sured that it is not the wish or de-
sire Of any white man to omolest them
in the proper exercise Of those. prlvl-
leges. As to The whites themselves,
even though the opportunity were
given, they do not, as a body, wish
to be organized into militia, for the
simple reason, that there is no neees'
sity f IL such organization of either
race. Our country is virtually al
peace with all The world, and if trou-
bIe were ippr"hende'l, the trampoos'
ing of a few detached militia compa'
MES over the country could effect
nothing in maintaining the military
prestige Of the Government. We
fear that scheming politicians, work
ing for their own promotion AMI ag
grandizement, are at the head OF this
unfortunate movement, and we warn
the colored men to beware of tho
dangerous trap to which it will sure,

The Hero of the Lava Beds,
[From the Chester Reporter J

Having succeeded in capturing the
Modocs and. thereby putting an yan'l
to the war, General Davis will be the
hero Of the hour. His. fame will re-
sound from the lava beds of Cal for
MIA to the cod. fisheries of New Eng
land. All that will keep his. name
from being immortal is that he allow
ed Captain Jack to slip through his
fingers after he had him in his power.
General Davis has fame in this
section Of the country: til is not one
that warrior would envy; but such
as it is he should have the benefit Of
it in this the hour of his glory. He
was an officer in Sherman's army that
swept through this State in 1865.
Whether he commanded corps or u
division we do not recollect, nor is it
material to Know. As the army Of
the North approached the line Of
Chester County it came upon the
home of Mr.. John Douglas, in Fair
ield County. A courier came to this
house and demanded a.room for the
headquarters of General Jeff. @. Da-
Wis. He brought with him a'carpet,
which he put down in the room, and
other comforts and conveniences for
his commander. Soon afterwards
General Davis arrived and took pos
sessioneof the quarters that had been
prepared for him. Mrs. E., The
daughter Of. Mr.. Douglas, and the
wife of Rev. T. w. E, who was
residing in the house and taking care
of. her aged. father, appealed to HIM
to protect the property on-the' place.
He assured her that he-Eopld do:so,
and told her to pack up the articles
that she deemed most valuable and
deposit them in the room. that he oc-
cupied,. and that he would be per-
sonally responsible for their safety.
She did so, packsd-up.in trunks eve
rythiag shat she, deemed, oil special
value, and placed. 1T in his room.
When he left tn. house she7@entinto
the room to recover her valuables and
found tnat the trunks had been bro
ken.open and everything that was
worth carrying off harii been taken
away. -
This is the hero Of the Modoc war.
These facts Gan be-, established. by
witnesses whose credibility no man
would dare gainsay.

@ A young lady living at Eau laire,

three hundred people had searched for
five hours she was found sitting on the
bank of The river with her lover, squecZ-

nothing had happened.

betting on the weight OF q large muIey

the weight of live stock, got behind the
mule and was measuring his hind quarters,

mule. Just before the expert, died he

he must weigh not far from a 900 pounds.

outward influences operating upon this
article has been rather against it, as
regards the advancement of prices
With very light receipts and with con-
certed efforts upon the part of re-
ceivers, they have managed to keep
the market regular, and prices have
ruled with only slight change. The
first day of our review lots of good
size of new virgin were offered on
market and secured the advancement,
which places the grade at margin
above yellow dip, which is generally
allowed from April to October. This
has been the only change up to the
close of our writing. The new crop is
arriving, but as yet not very freely,
although in some sections the dipping
is progressing very. rapidly. The
earliest productions are being manu-
factured into "rosins" as will be seen
by small arrivals of that article daily.
The receipts for the week, LOIS bbls.,
against 1915 bbls. for last week, is
decrease of 1927 bbls. The exports
are very light and the stock is B, lit
bbls. The market closes steady at
50 % for hard, 50 so for yellow dip,
and 81 for virgin. The receipts and
sales for the week were as follows:

was early in the week a disposition
manifested among buyers to purchase
owing to the reported reduced stock
in New York, and up to Tuesday
transactions were free. Friday morn
ing Il market opened at 47l cents,
at the close of the day there was a
good feeling exhibited and the market
closed firm. Saturday morning tele-
grams reported New York stock as
rapidly reducing, estimated stock not
exceeding 1000 casks, this gave
strength to the then already firm IN
dertone, and the market advanced 81
cents. Monday morning the previous
days feeling was exhibited. and a
further advance of l cent was gained.
At noon, however, a reaction occurred,
and since then buyers and sellers have
been apart with 40 transactions. At
the close of our writing to-day, buyers
are offering 48 cents and sellers are
asking higher rates. The receipts for
the week were 962 casks against ], 1922
casks for the previous week, The ex-
ports were 766 casks and tho stock in
