1t seems probable that the Legisla-
ture of South Carolina. now in session.
will adopt the suggestion of Governor
Moses, of that State, and enact a law
''scaling" the State debt. The Re-
publican papers OF that State are
strongly in favor of the proposition,
which has for its aim, as explained by
the Charleston Chronicle, san honora-
BILE. and under the circumstances. O
fair and final settlement of the vexed
condition of South Carolina finances. "
The only trouble now to be appre-
hended is the manipulation of mem
bers by scheming bond-brokers. In

propositions may be expected in due

during the week Western meats are

tends to check all speculative opera

was confined TO the current demand
of consumers.
The Cincinnati Price Current says,
of the Western Markets:
"There has been a further material
depression in the market amounting
almost to decentralization during the
week, and prices have declined on all
articles. There has been no material
increase in the consumptive demand
and no Improvement in the facilities
for negotiating commercial bills on the
distributing markets of the south, but
on the contrary some markets like Bal
tlmore are now more difficult to reach
IN the negotiation of Exchanges than
ever. The lower prices which prevail
ought to attract more orders to this

Some FACTS ABOUT WHEELBAR-
Rows,AAH editor who evidently
knows aihavk from q handbarrow,
says:
If you have occasion to use wheel
barrow, leave it, when you are done
with it, in front of the house with
the handles toward the door. A
wheelba-ro1 is the most complicated
thing to fall over on the face Of the
earth. A man will fall over one
when he would never think of falling
over anything else. He never knows
when he has got through falling over
it, either; for it will tangle bis legs
and his arms, turn over with him and
rear up in front of him, and just as
he pauses in his profanity to congrat-
uiate himself, it takes a new turn and
scoops more skin off Of him. and he
commences to evolute anew and bump
himself in fresh places. \ man new
er ceasesto fall over q wheelbarrow,
until it turns completely on its back,
or brings up against something it can
not upset. It is, The mostipotfensixe-
boxing object there is, but it is more.
dangerous than locomotive, andipo
man IS secure with one unless he has
a tight hold Of it's handles and is
sitting down on something. A wheel
barrow has its uses, without doubt,
bnt in it's leisure moments IL is fhe
great bhghting curse on true dignity.

A REMARKABLE FAMILY. INDEE

A REMARKABLE FAMILY, INDEED.
Under the head GA Remarkable
Family" the Athens correspondent
of the Atlanta Herald writes as fol-
lows:
One of the finest families in this
or any other State are the Hodgsons.
We sometimes weep when we think
there are SO few of them. There are
only thirteen boys. The father, an
Englishman, came to this country
with his wife and brother, many years
ago, and settled down at Athens,
building carriage factory, in which
they went to work. In thirteen years
thirteen sons were born unto them.
AS soon as each one became old
enough to handle a mallet. he was
put into the shop and made to learn
;he trade. Having made his physical
education perfect, and having taught
with ON an occasional leather strap
the. dignity of labor, he was then put
through school and college. This
sensible course Of training has made
every one of them the very finest
specimen of a''well balanced well-
built manhood, and if they were put
on exhibition Tomorrow as the best
pen of boys would take. the prize
at the Worlds Fair.

A SUDDEN CHANGE OF MrND.-A
few days ago tall, rough-looking
monntaineer entered the Union Rail
road ticket Office at Denver, and
through mistake, purchased a ticket
for New York via the Kansas Pa
ciic line, when he wanted to 60 over
the Union Pacific. He did not dis
cover this fact until after the ticket
had been paid for, and on asking the
agent to change it, he refused to do
50.
"You won't change this ticket then,
won't your
"No, sir" replied the agent you
have your ticket and have the mon
ey for it. and if you want ticket
over the other route, you will have
to buy it.
Very quietly the stranger twisted
his ticket into small roll; very Sse-
renely he drew from under his right
coat tail a s;x.shootcr about the di-
mensions of mountain howitzer :;
coolly aud. deliberately he stuck the
twisted ticket into the mazhe Of that
six-shooter, and sticking that usly
looking thing through the little square
window OF ,he ticket office, and almost
in the agents face, and speaking in
the tone that left 10 doubt of his de-
termination, said:
Stranger, thars that ticket; take
it yourself and change it, or I'll blow
it clean through you" "..n:,
The ticket was changed immedi-
atety, and without any more words
from the agent, and the mountaineer
walked away saying: I jest thought
I could; fnddce him to. change his.

that tie wife went to party, and
when she returned home she found
the horrid male creature had retired
to the nuptial couch, and wrapped
himself up in the bed-clothes so
thoroughly that there was not any
left for her. The insulted wife could
not stand this, and, sas she expressed

of wildness induced her to violently

She retaliated by making an assault

that he was, decided in favor of his
fellowman. So now, we presume it
was settled by law that a husband
can have all the bed-clothes if he
wants them.
