How AN ECCENTRIC MAN WAS BUkIEp.-
An exceedingly eccentric man has Just died at
McEwen, aged eighty-four. He had his grave
dug twenty years ago, and stoned up and filled
with earth that it might be in perfect condition
when needed. Last fall he had the earth
taken out of it, saying that he expected to be
laid there before the winter was over. His
coffin was in readiness seven years ago, and so
arranged that he could lie on his side with his
knees drawn up, as he said he slept in this
condition in life, and wanted to sleep so in
death. All his plans for the funeral were made
in advance, and among the rest he selected
four colored boys who had worked for him
more or less, as had their father before them,
as pall-bearers, They were to carry the body
to the grave, which was on his own farm, lower
it to its last resting.place, fill the grave with
earth, and then walk back to the house, where
they were to find each letter sealed and di-
rected to them, in which was the money to pay
for this last service which he had required of
them. His friends took good care to carry out
his peculiar wishes.

The Fence Law.

Among the many questions at the present
moment which demand the attention OF the
public is the proposed change in the fence law
Of the State. This law rs it now stands, and
for years the prevailing custom of the country,
requirs that the crops be secured by fence,
and that the stock be allowed to range at large.
The change which it is proposed to, make in
the law reverses entirely the order of things.
Instead of securing the crop by fence, it is
proposed to enclose the stock. For various
reasons we think that the change should be
made. 1t is evident that it would be cheaper
to fence the stock than to fence the crop. 1t
would require less labor and less timber, both
of which are items of no small importance in
the State. The change, however, is so thorough
that it cannot without much inconvenience,
be effected at once. The general good of the
country seems to demand that some change be
made at once in the law. There isnot per
haps, single county in the State in which, in
consequence, large bodies of productive land
erished BY herds of cattle. These lands are, to
their owners, so much uninvested capital upon
which heavy tax is annually to be paid.
A kind of compromise between the existing
and the proposed law, is what we at present
need. Fence in the hogs and then cheaper
fence will be sufficient for the crops. What is
called "galloping fence" can be built, which
will as efectually turn COWS and horses as the
kind of fences at present in use. This fence
can be built with at least one half the number
of rails. When the cost of labor necessary to
make rails, and the timber out of which they
are to be made, are considered, the actual
saving by this '.galloping fence" is small
item. One result of such change would be,
that many tracts of land that to-day are almost
vaueess, would be valuable. There is not
enough Of timber on them to fence them;
hence, with the existing fence law in force,
they cannot be cultivated, and are, in conse-
quence, not saleable. Around most OF such
lands "galloping-fence" could be placed, and
such lands would rate in the market according
to their productiveness. To fence the hogs
would not put the country to much inconven-
ience, and to the owners, would, in the end, be
a great advantage. When hogs are permitted
to run at large, many of them are dogged for
breaking into fields; some are killed for their
mischief; not few die of starvation and only
a few of the remainder escape from thieves !

UNDER THE SHADOW.

'Tis the child's first grief, and the broken toy
Is viewed with glance OF fearful yearning; {;
The world seems robbed of its greatest JOY,
And hopes bright lamp is no longer burning.
Under the shadow!
We turn, tits maiden fair, who bends -
With pale, drawn face DER the cold, dead
form; i,
And mother mother! the welkin rends,
While the tempest vies with the raging storm,
Under the shadow!
A youth, with noble, stirring face,
Awakens us from this plying trance.
In deepest lines on his brow we trace
These words, with single passing glance,
Under the shadow!
And why2 Twas a man he trusted so.
A man but the name is surely feigned;
Now, duped, forsaken, he turns to go.
All! the brand on his brow he has dearly
gained -.
Under the shadow!
But is man in his strength from the curse not
free?
And woman, too, with her strange, flrm Will Z
At last can we turn from the stern decree?
No! no they are deeper, deeper still
Under the shadow!
'Tis son they mourn, and the shadowy cloud
Has draped their souls with united grief
Lost worse than death and its gloomy shroud-
And their life is marked with this sentence
brief
Under the shadow!
Old age with its slvery locks appears,
The shadow is lingering by its side!
'Tis memory causes the yelling tears,
And the aged, too, must at times abide
Under the shadow!

EXCURSION TO EuRopE.-A Masonic excur-
sion is in course of preparation at Columbia,
Pennsylvania, for trip to Europe, with a
special purpose of visiting the great Interna-
tional Exhibition at Vienna. They start about
the first of June next, and will make an extern
ded tour through Great Britain as we'll as on
the Continent. A contract has already been
entered into for carrying limited number
ocean passage, railroad fare, hotel bills and all
other expenses incident to the trip, all paid.
A fine opportunity here presents itself for
making cheap and pleasant tour to the Old
World. Persons desiring further information
on the subject should address A. NJ. Rambo,

HONOR TO ANDERSON CoUNTY.-The report
of the County Commissioners of Anderson
presented to the Legislature yesterday, exhibits
an unusually healthful financial condition for
these times Upon tax of two and half
mills on the dollar levied for county purposes
last wear, there was realized the sum of S12,
1878 and the amounts collected for fines,
licenses &c., aggregated S999lO making in all
S13,75649 The disbursements were So, l2s.Sk
This shows balance in the Treasury for the
county of s., 5,62666 The total amount claimed
by the County Commissioners for their own
and their clerks services was S247.35.
There were, too, several extraordinary ex-
penses. Such as the building of bridge over
the Saluda River, and the building of roof to
the Jail. There is not, we feel assured IN
stating. sta another county in the State which can
show so fair record, and we commend Ander-
son to the other counties and to the State too
as bright example worthy of their imitation.
1t is truly refreshing to learn that there is
one branch-if we may so term Anderson
county-of the government of South Carolina
in which there is an overpus of funds. Nearly
every county in the State is largely involved in
debt, and county affairs as rule, are but little
if any better conducted than those of the
State.-South Cdrolinian.
REPORT OF THE ANDERSON COUNTY Con-
MIssIoSERs.-The above report is before us
and reflects great credit on the officers who
thus set forth their work for the past year. The
sum of $l2,757.S9 was collected on 50, lo2, ,s5S-
8S worth of real and personal property. Be-
sides this $99949 we're received on fines, licen-
ces, etc.
The total amount of expenditures outside OF
the commissioners Office was $8,126,S1. This
includes the building or repairing of seventeen
bridges, new roofing the Jail with tin, and COM
pleeting the survey in that county on the Air
Line Railroad.
The office expenses are the lightest 0. any
we have vet seen. K. Breazeale, Republican,
received for services, S63 B. d. Dean Repub-
lican, S33. w. S. Pickens, Democrat, SS535;
total, $181.95. The clerk only received S66.
The commissioners begin the new year with
about $1,000 in the Treasury, no debts OF any
account, and with reduction of the tax one
half mill. Thus far Anderson is the banner
county. Who will dispute her laurels with
her p Union.
The report of the Anderson County Com
missioners reflects great credit on the officers
who have thus set forth their work for the past
year. The sum of $l2, 1879 was collected on
SIS, ,l02, 95S.33 worth Of real and personal prop
erty. Besides this, S999.49 were received on
fines, licenses, etc. The total amount of ex-
penditures, outside of the commissioners office,
was $8,129.Sl. This includes the building or
repairing of seventeen bridges, new roofing the
jail with tin, and completing the survey in that
County on the Air Line Railroad. The Office
expenses are the iightest of any we have yet
seen.-$lS1.35. The commissioners begin the
new year with about $4,000 in the treasury, no
debts of any account, and with reduction of
the tax one-half mil.-PhGnir.

T1E DEGRADATION OF THE UNITED STATES
SENArE-If we should seek the reason of this
in any single fact, we should fail to find the
cause. The degradation is more apparent than
the methods by which it was accomplished
The disturbed and deplorable condition of the
South, growing out of the ignorance of the
freed people, the usurpation of the carpet-bag-
gers and the iendshness of the Ku Klux, is
one of the most potent of the many causes.
But the new and many of the old States, have
weak and bad men in the Senate. We can
readily understand why Patterson, the new
Senator from South Carolina, who expects a
seat in the next Congress, should be accused OF
bribery. We are not surprised that Georgia,
Florida and Alabama are represented In part,
at least, by men whose attalnments DO not
include the three R's-reading, 'riting and,
'rithmetc. Even in tho case of Powell Clay
ton, of Arkansas, we saw nothing to provoke
any grave fears for the safety of our institu-
tons But, if it is suggested that Senators
from Rhode Island, New York, Pennsylvania,
Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska or Kansas have OBJ
tanned their places by the corrupt use OF money,
or through the influence of railroad or other
corporations, we may we'll be alarmed. lnves-
tgaition would develop a state of facts as dis.
graceful as has been shown in the relations OF
many prominent men to the Credit Mobilier
Probably fifty out of the seventy-four Senator'S
obtained their seats by purchase. We know
of many cases where the allegation is openly
made and has never been denied by the accused
statesmen. 1t is seldom that any inquiry is
instituted, even where the charges are notori-
GUS, and, when it is done, ib is generally to
whitewash the criminal.-Ncp York Herald.
