Relic of tf,e War

Il gives us pleasure to record the fact that
Maj. W. w. Humphreys, after years of painful
apprehension. has recently experienced quite a
feiief by the voluntary eruption of piece of
lead from his left shoulder. Maj. Humphreys
was wounded on the S0th of june 1862, in the
battles around Richmond, and the ball passed
through his body, touching the shoulder blade.
Every spring he has suffered intensely from
his wound, which has required frequent lancing,
and it was thought by physicians that some
foreign substance was the cause of this period
zeal suffering. The orihce m.ide last year re-
mains open to this time, and a few days ago
the piece of lead worked out, to his astonish-
ment and relief: 1t is evideHtly part of the
ball, which wasslodged against the bone in
passing through, and there was small particle
of bone adhering to the lead, which has been
imbedded securely for nearly eleven years.
The numerous friends of Maj. H. will unite ia
congratulations upon this unexpected and
favorable event. and we hope that the pain he
has so long endured is finally over.

The Montgomery (Ala.) State Jom

- The Montgomery (Ala.) State Journal
estimates the present indebtedness of that
State at $170OO,OOO, or SIT for every man,
woman and child within the State. Continu-
ing its calculation that paper says the amount
for each voter to pay is SS5, and says in order
to pay off the debt during the present genera
ton tax of 81 year must be collected from
each voter for the next twenty years, leaving
the interest still unpaid.
: The State Auditor of North Carolina has
sued out writ of injunction against A. S.
Buford, President of the North Carolina Rail-
road, and all the employees, for preventing a
change of gauge from Greensboro to Charlotte,
and the Injunction has been served. The
gauge was to have been changed in a day or
two, which would have enabled trains from the
Danville Road to pass through to the South,
and was to be done in the interest of the Penn
sylvania Central.
= The city of San Salvador, the capital of
the Central American Republic of that name,
has been overthrown by an earthquake. The
loss of life was terrible. Eight hundred per-
sons have persisted, and property to the value
of twelve million dollars was destroyed. I'M
mediately after the earthquake flames sprang
from the ruins, adding to the horrors of the
time. Hundreds of houses were burned down,
and the panic-strcken inhabitants knew not
where to flee for safety. San Salvador was
founded in 1923 by Spanish emigrantts, and has,
at different periods, greatly suffered by earth
quakes, especially in the years 1859 and 1854.
Tile population is about $4,000.

The PALMETTO ORPHAN RoME.--It affords
me pleasure to state to the people of South
Carolina, that the Palmetto Orphan Home
enters upon its second year under favorable
auspices. 1t has just been moved from Hur-
leyville into larger house on Washington
street. The use of the house and large lot now
occupied by the Home, has been rendered to
our Board free of rent for two years, by the
Ladies Benevolent Society of Columbia.
We are now prepared to receive fifteen or
twenty more children. 1t is earnestly desired
that the members of the Board of Visitors
endeavor to find an orphan in each county, and
send il to the Home. 5.,:
As there is no doubt as 10 the Importance Of
this benevolent institution, let me ask for
general and hearty cooperation in its support
by generous public.
We will gladly receive donations in money,
provisions, clothing, furniture, land or property
of any kind. The sooner the Institution can
be made self supporting, the better it will be-
Let me call attention of the public TO the
Orphans Appeal, the neat little monthly which
is published by our Board. 1t shows the work
ings and wants of our Home, and will be read
with interest by the children. The price for
one yearis only so cents, which goes toward
the support of the Home. This little paper
has obtained wide circulation, and is fnan-
cially success.
In behalf of the Institution, let me extend
our thanks to all the sympathetic friends who
have aided US during the past year.

New Orleans appears to have been laid out

medley of streets, perfectly bewildering. They
are not crooked, as in Boston, but run at such
odd angles and make such independent and
original turns to all points of the compass as
to be extremely puzzling to a stranger. The
distances in the city remind one forcibly of

is built up and you see no stretches of waste

License. or No License.

The Town Council has determined to submit
the question. of granting hcenses TO- tavern
keepers and retailers OF spirituous liquors to
thequalifed voters ofsthe Incorporation, and
Saturday, 26th of April, has been agreed upon
as the day for determining the issue. We un-
derstands that applications for licenses were
made to the Council, with assurances of a strict
compliance with the Tupper law, and the re-
suit fthese applications is to test the sense of
this community as to whether or not the Ii
eenses. shall be granted. The responsibility,
therefore, rests upon the qualified voters of this
town to settle the issue for the present, and we
trust that all good citizens, favoring the estab-
lishment of peace and better order, are ready
to lend their earnest efforts to secure positive
decision against the re-opening of bar-rooms in
this town. The short respite from disorder al
ready enjoyed must convince every thinking
man that the community, in its true interests,
is best subserved by the total prohibition of the
liquor traffic. Experience has demonstrated
fully that there Is vast difference in the main
tenance of order and the security of the public
peace, when the bar-rooms are licensed and
when they are closed. at this time, when an
attempt is being made to foster an institution
of learning, where youths from all sections will
congregate for instruction, there is an especial
need for this improvement in public morals,
and the tempter of strong drink will no longer
be legalized and thrusted in the way of mex
perienced boys and young men. The absence
of this temptation will offer strong induce
ments for parents and guardians at distance
to patronize our schools and no one can doubt
the truth of this proposition. But why emu
merate reasons to an intelligent public, when
every consideration of good morals will dictate
the proper course? Is there a father within
our limits who needs to be instructed? Is there
one so debased by the habitual use of strong
drink that he desires to place these temptations
daily and hourly before their sonsS We be-
lieve not, and that an earnest and united effort
at this time will secure the permanent down.
fall of the liquor traffic in. this community.
Let each one resolve to do his duty, and stead
fasty uphold the banner Of peace and sobriety.

Fire Apparatus.

We are grati6ed to note the fact that the
Town Council appreciates the necessity Of pro-
viding against the ravages of the fre-fend'
Recognizing the present insecurity of property,
and the demand for cheap and effective con-
trivance to extinguish fires in their incipieney,
if not subdue the flames afterwards, the Coun-
cilsuggests the purchase of Gardiner Truck,
with Hook, Ladder and Fire Eztinguishers,
and for this. purpose designs raising special
tax which will aggregate the sum of $500.
Before levying the special tax, however, all
legal voters are requested to express their
opinions upon the propriety of the contempla-
ted purchase, and at the election to be held on
the 26th inst, it is sexpected that every voter
will record his opinion on this subject. We
are not familiar with the merits of the proposed
apparatus, and cannot vouch for its efficiency
and reliability, except that it has received the
endorsement of many persons throughout the
country. In Winnsboro, at the recent fire in
that town,,t Gardiner FIRE extinguishers are
said to have rendered good service, although
the FIRE when discovered had made too great
progress for the property to be saved. But we
are strongly in favor of obtaining some sort of
apparatus, and think it the duty of those most
interested tn examine this matter carefully,
and inform themselves as to the probable use
fulness of the apparatus suggested. We would
be glad to receive full information from any
one acquainted with the merits of the Gardiner
apparatus, in time for publication next week.
