Postponemcnt of the Public Library Gift
Concert.

1t will be seen by the announcement in our
advertising columns that the third gift concert
of the Public Library of Kentucky, which was
to have taken place to-day, has been postponed
until July 8. This postponement has not been
occasoned, as we are advised by Gov. Bram-
lette. by the small sales of tickets; on the con-
trary, the sales have been unusually large
much larger than at either of the preceding
concerts-so large, indeed, that the time given
by this ninety-day postponement will enable
Gov. Bramlette to dispose of every ticket and
insure full drawing without any reduction or
scaling of the gifts. as has heretofore been the
case. Gov. B. sees his way so clearly that he
announces in the most positive and unequivo-
cal language that the drawing will take place
July g. and that it will be full one. The owner
Of the ticket drawing the capital gift will get
$l0O,OO in greenbacks without any discount,
and so of all the other gifts. The money suffi-
cient to pay all the gifts-$50o, 900 in greenbacks
lis already on deposit in the Farmers and
Drovers' Bank, set apart for the payment OF
the gifts and can be used for no other purpose,
as will be seen by the cashier certificate. With
q knowledge of these facts-and we do not hes
itate to guarantee their scrupulous fulhllment
there will be such demand for the tickets
now on hand that in all probability not a single
one will be left for sale weeks before the time
of drawing. There never was a fairer or more
honorably-conducted enterprise before the pub
lie, and it has, as 1t deserves, the entire conf
dence of our people. 1t is one of those schemes
in which the purchasers Of tickets feel the most
positive assurance that the drawing will be fair,
for it will be controlled by the most prominent
and distinguished citizens of the city and State,
and those who draw gifts will be certain to get
the money the moment their tickets are pre-
sented.-Louisuiue Courier Journal, ApT1t7.

EXCITEMENT IN FRANCE.-A special dis
patch to the New York World of last Saturday,
from its London correspondent, says that in
formation received from Paris shows conclu-
sively that the gravest apprehensions are felt
in the highest and the best informed political
circles of Paris of an almost immediate civil
war. The recognized Monarchists have been
rapidly gaining strength, and are now deter
mined to have Thiers thrown over, let the cost
be what it may. An energetic effort will be
made to defeat M. Buffet and elect M. Martel
to the presidency of the Assembly, and it is
doubtful if the Right will be able to keep Buff
fet in the presidents chair. Theirs is deter
mined to force the Assembly TO establish the
Republic or to accept his resignation. The
city of Lyons is seething with excitement. 1t
is kept from open insurrection only by the
most extraordinary efforts of the soldiers and
police, and the least trouble elsewhere will pre-
cipitate q crisis there. In Nice and Savoy
there is a great deal of dissatisfaction, which
is actively fomented by Italian revolutionary
agents. Paris appears Oh the surface quiet
but the extraordinary precautions taken by the
authorities, reveal their apprehensions and
prove that there is strong foundation for the
grayest fears of trouble.

The Carolina High School.

The Bsrnwell Sentinel contains the annexed
hattering notice of the Carolina High School,
to which is appended brief comment upon
our town from a correspondent. The High
School has entered upon its second term, under
auspices we'll deserving the appreciation and
kindly wishes of its friends throughout the
State, and we are truly gratifed to know that
the many advantages of the institution and
the town as an educational centre are properly
appreciated elsewhere:
We are pleased to learn that this Institution
at Anderson, S. c., is in most fourishing
condition and now members 160 scholars. Not
a week passes that some one or more new pupils
do not come in. From Rarnwell there are six,
three ladies and three gentlemen, and from
various parts of the State still they come. 1t
is, from what we can learn, the first school in
the State and advantages of educating the
sexes together are numerous and obvious. The
location is all that could be desired. Anderson
is quiet, moral village, contains about 1000
inhabitants and the habits of her people plain
and simple, and there is nothing to tempt the
young people into vanity or otherwise. A cor
respondent says:
1.-THE people here are industrious and ex-
tremely attentive to business cordial and kind
in their manners-ready and prompt to do what
they are going to do. No shameful wasting of
tune, and oilers whiting of boxes about the
store doon of Anderson, and fewer idlers or
loafers about this town than any / have ever
been acquainted with"
The atmosphere is admirable, and few places
are better adapted to rearing the young for
business and usefulness in life. We bespeak
for the Carolina High School continued pros

Sons of Temperance.

The quarterly meeting of the Grand Division
of South Carolina was held in Newberry, be-
ginning on Wednesday, 23rd ultimo. About
thirty delegates were present, and the reports
from every section of the State exhibited the
fact that the order is in healthy aud pros
porous condition, and that the progress of the
temperance movement is encouraging. At the
close of the session, on Thursday evening, a
large and enthusiastic public meeting was held
in the Town Hall, and addresses were delivered

hundred dollars.

A Poetic Voter.

At the election held on Saturday last, the
following ticket was deposited on the license
question, as we are credibly informed. We
have often heard that inebriating fluids awoke
to ecstacies the poetic fervor, but this is the
first instance where the prospect of going it
"dry" caused the divine afiatus to rise and
soar on wings of delighted Imagination. The
plaintive tone Of the verse is only compensated
by the brave sentiment Of the last line, where
in the poet resolves to test the efficacy of ma
ture's wholesome beverage, and we gladly wish
him joy upon this resolution:
NO LICENSE.
Good By Larger Good by Ale,
WhskGy hot or Gin cocktail,
Brandy smash or Whiskey straight
Eye-op.ner or night-cap late,
Tom aud Jerry fond farewell,
Never more to have smell
or Sherry Cobbler or Milk Punch,
Here's health to a Cold Water Lunch.

Friday night was not confined to this. section,
but was general throughout North and South
Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia. Wherever
cotton was out Of the ground, the plant has
been badly damaged, and in some sections
peaches were killed and rheat greatly injured.

The Election on Saturday.

The election on Saturday last, ordered by
the TowA,C Council, attracted considerable in
terest among the citizens generally, but the
occasion passed off quietly and satisfactorily to
all parties. AS will be observed by the figures
hereunto annexed, the anti-license vote en-
braced an overwhelming majority, which will
keep the bar-rooms closed until the term of
the present Council expires in September next.
Indeed, the sentiment so strongly manifested
by this vote indicates that large majority of
our eisizens are in favor of abolishing the
liquor traffic in this community; and with
prudent management, together with the mani
fest improvement in the morals of the town,
there will be no difficulty in electing the next
Town Council upon the dry ticket if the issue
is properly made and earnestly sustained. At
least, we hope for such result, and believe
that the decided change, already apparent from
our short experience since the bar-rooms were
closed, will convince many others that the ad-
yantages accruing from the prohibition Of the
liquor traffic are manifold and permanent. As
time developes these advantages, we shall have
occasion to make further comment upon this
subject.
In regard to the proposed special tax, which
likewise obtained majority in its favor, it is
proper to remark that many declined to vote
upon this question, from the simple fact that
they were not fully informed as to the merits
and practical utility of the fire apparatus in
tended to be purchased Others believed that
the expenditure was unwise, and that more
efficient means should be secured, at larger
outlay, with which to suppress fires when oc-
casion sequired. Others again were willing
to risk the chances, or rely upon insurance
to cover possible losses, but the general senti-
ment WIS in favor of providing effective agen-
cies to prevent the serious losses incurred by
other communities from visitations of this
destructive element. Yet sufficient number
felt disposed to test the efficiency of the pro-
posed apparatus, and hence there was a small
majority in favor of the special tax. We pre-
sumo that this tax will be levied in short
time, and that there will be no captious oppo-
sition to its prompt payment by every citizen,
as the question was fairly decided at the polls.
4 The whole number of voters registered was
22O, divided by race as follows: Whites, l42 ;
colored, 7S. A considerable number of col
'ored persons failed to register, while we know
that six or eight white voters were absent from
the town, and did not return in time to register
their names. These figures show the steady
increase of our white population, as the num-
Der of whites heretofore has noteexceeded 120,
to which figure the colored vote nearly approx
imated. si @
At the election on Saturday, the whole num-
Der of votes cast was 1s3, as follows: ss
No License, 1874; License, 49. Majority
against license, IS.
specias Tax, 90; No Special Tax e6. Ma
jority in favor of special tax, 26.

United States Court.

1t is not often that man is lucky enough to
get two good Offices in single day, yet such
seems to be the fortune of James E. Hagood,
Esq., of Pickeus, who was appointed Clerk Of
the United States Court on last Saturday, in
place of Daniel Horlbeck, Esq, resigned. On
the same day, Judge Bond appointed Mr..
Hagood as United States Commissioner for
Charleston County, in place of Mr.. John F.
Porteus, who has been removed. This is heap
ing up the measure of luck for Mr. Hagood,
but we are confident that his excellent business
qualifications will find him equal to the emer-
gency..n. -.
