The CoEleaiate Institute.

We are gratifed to state that the Carolina
Male and Female Collegiate Institute has be-
gun the second year under most favorable cir
cumstances, with large number Of students
already in attendance. The entire corps of
professors are at their posts, and have entered
zealously upon the work assigned to them. All
that is necessary to develop and perpetuate
this model institution of learning is the foster
ing care and generous suppert Of those most
vitality interested in its success, We refer to
the citizens Of shis town and neighborhood,
whose united efforts would produce wonderful
results, and attract patronage from the sur
rounding country. Every one should desire to
see thriving and prosperous school, growing
steadily towards an eminence hitherto unat-
tanned by educational enterprises in this Sec
ton of the country. We have the population
and the wealth to achieve this landable pur-
pose, and there is no sound reason to prevent
its fnl6llment, especially as it stands without
arrival in the co-education of the sexes, and
does not conflict with any institution now in
existence, ... v

The Explosion of the Fort Hill.

The Coroner's inquest as to the cause of the
recent explosion Of the engine Fort Hill
whereby the engineer Mr.. Lane lost his life,
resulted in the following verdict:
'That the said John Y. Lane came to his
death by the bursting of the boiler of the en-
gine Fort Hill, the property of the Greenville
and Columbia Railroad Company. said engine
having for q long time been unsafe and unfit
for use, and being known to be so unsafe to the
officers of said company, and particularly to
one Thomas Dodamead, the General Superin-
tendent of said company, and having been by
him, while so unsafe and unfit for service, con-
tinued in use."
COL Dodamead, Superintendent Of the Green
vile Railroad, was arrested on last Saturday,
upon the order of the Coroner of Newberry
County, for criminal negligence connected with
the deplorable accident which resulted in the
death of Mr. Lane. The matter came up be-
fore Judge Carpenter in the afternoon, under a
writ of habeas corpus. After mature consider.
alton of all the circumstances Of the case COL
Dodamead was discharged from arrest, and
fully exonerated from any negligence in the
matter, criminal or othwerwise

Patrons of Husbandry.

This order continues to grow and thrive in
Anderson County, and the services of DR..
Barksdale, the State Lecturer, are frequently
brought into requisitiou of late. On Tuesday
of last week, DR.. Barksdale organized a Grange
near Salem Church, four miles northwest of
this place, which is styled Hunters Spring
Grange, with Kenon Breazeale as Worthy Mas
ter, and r. Marcus Burriss, Secretary. On
Saturday last, another Grange was organized
at Sandy Springs, an account of which is fur
nished by the Secretary in another column of
this issue.
The attention of all the Oranges in this
County is called to the fact that meeting will
be held at Anderson on Saturday, 14th of Feb
ruary instant, for the purpose of organizing a
Council, embracing the Masters and Overseers
of the different Oranges.
Anderson Grange, No. II, will hold its next
regular meeting on tomorrow friday at the
usual time and place.

Gin House Burnt.

We regret to learn chat the gin house of Mr.
A. NJ. Neal, together with its valuable contents,
were totally destroyed by fire on Monday night
last The fire was discovered between ten and
eleven o'clock, in the shed room of the engine
house, but it was too late to prevent an almost
total destruction of the property, including a
valuable engine, four splendid gins, and about
thirty bales of cotton in the seed, together with
large quantity of cotton seed. Two or three
bales Of cotton already packed were rescued
from the flames. The cotton and machinery
belonged to Ms. A. NJ. Neal and bis son, VIII
liam A. Neal, and their entire loss is estimated
at $4,000. 1t is presumed that the fire was
originated by an incendiary, as the flames when
discovered we're at some distance from the
engine or other machinery.

lmmiQration Notes.

On Tuesday of last week, the steamship
Charleston brought 209 immigrants from New
York, and landed them safely in Charleston,
where they were properly cared for and places
proved for them. The majority were young
men, and fine robust specimens of manhood.
They were principally laboring men, who had
been in the United States for some time, work
ing in the machine shops, cotton mills and as
farm laborers in the Northern States, but had
been thrown ont of employment by the severity
of the times and stringency of the money
market. Their coming to the South was
prompted by an anxiety and willingness to
work, provided employment could be furnished
to them.
Maj. T. H. Bomar of Spartanburg, writes
that he has found good homes for the twenty
FIVE Italians who were taken to that place
recently from Columbia. He regrets that the
entire party was not secured. as he expects to
fnd places for one hundred more.
A society for the encouragement of immigra-
ton has been permanently organized at Wal
halla, and committee appointed to prepare
constitution and bylaws A number of immi-
grants have been ordered, and Ex-senator
Biemann has kindly offered to defrs- their
expenses to Walhala, which is to be refunded
by employers upon arrival of the immigrants.

Death of an AGED Citizen.

We are panied to record the death of an es
Unable and aged citizen, Mr.. Thomas o
Hill, which occurred at his residence in the
Dark Corner, on Sunday afternoon, in the S2nd
year of his age. He was thrown from horse
on Saturday morning, and it was from the ef'
feet of injuries received that death ensued
Mr.. Hill was unusually vigorous and energetic
for one of his advanced age, and was person.
ally experimenting some business pertaining
to the farm when he met with the accident
which eyentuated in his death. He has been
q member of the Methodist Church for up
wards of fifty years, and was always faithful in
his private devotions and in attendance upon
public worship. He was the father of our
townsman, Col. R. s. Hill, who is the only
surviving child of the deceased. The remains
of Mr.. Hill were buried at Roberts Church on
Tuesday.

Election of Auditors and Treasurers.

The question Of giving the election of Coun-
ty Treasurers and Auditors to the people comes
up regularly in the Legislature, but is always
defeated in the Senate. Such bill met with
this fate last winter, and now there is another
gone in the same direction. A bill passed the
House of Representatives, which provided for
the election of County Treasurers and Auditors
by the people at the general elections, and
when it was brought up as special order in
the Senate last week, Mr.. Andrews, of Orange
burg, move to strike out the enacting clause of
the bill. The motion was adopted, the vote
being l6 ayes; nays IA. We care informed that
there was considerable commotion among the
extreme Republicans, who feared the bill would
pass, and the power Of appointing these officers
be taken away from the Governor. 1t would
seem probable, if the people are competent to
elect Senators and Representatives, that they
are equally capable of selecting Treasurers and
Auditors

- Frank II. Pierce, nephew of President
Pierce, has been admitted to the New Hapshire
bar.
- 1t is stated that the Mormous are about
to re-establish themselves at Nauvoo, the
place from which they were forcibly elected by
the citizens of Illinois about twenty five years
ago.
- The trouble in Grant Parish, Louisiana,
last summer, it will be remembered, resulted in
the arrest of seven persons, who are still held
under the Ku Klux act. No trial has been
accorded them, and they have not been per-
mitted to give bail for trial. There seems to
be no excuse for such delay as this, and it is
in such culpable administration of justice by
the United States authorities in the South that
return of good feeling towards the gov
ernment is made impossible.
- Sixteen years ago, while the waters Of
the Chattahochee were low, a boat discharged
a cargo of several thousand bars of iron on an
i,land a few miles below Eufaula. a great
freshet iE the river soon ensued, which some
what changed the course of the river, ob,itera-
ted the island, and all traces of the iron were
lost. Numerous attempts have been made for
years past to find the rich deposit, and one day
last week lucky explorer succeeded in loca-
ting it full 200 yards from the course of the
river, and buried Is feet in the ground.

Mildness of the Winter.

The unusual mildness OF the present winter
has been the subject Of general remark and
the traditional "oldest inhabitant" has already
expressed the belief that such winter was
never known since the time whereof 'the men,
ory of man runneth not to the contrary" An
occasional crisp, cold day, with frequent sea-
sons of spring-like mildness and balmy sun
shine, makes up the greater part of this win
ter's record. Only now and then have we en-
joyed rainy day, usually 80 plentiful in this
climate during the winter season. But this
condition of the weather is not peculiar to
upper South Carolina, as throughout the coun-
try there is a like report, and universal &C.
acknowledgement of the mild season. In the
Northern States, where the ice crop is viewed
with tender watchfulness almost equal to the
solicituce i'll this region about the cotton crop,
there has been an anxiety concerning tho mild
season we can scarcely appreciate, and until
the Last week or two there was no prospect of
securing AN adequate supply of ice for the COM
ing summers trade. Yet, notwithstanding
this widespread prevalence of mild weather,
it is not wholly without precedent, as will be
seen by the annexed extract from an exchange,
which will open the eyes Of our weather-wise
prophets:
It is customary to forget each winters wealth
er before the next comes, and to consider eyery
season remarkable. An old number of the
Hartford Courant contains some records tran
scribed from the journal Of the Rev. Thomas
Smith, of Portland, Mo-, kept between the
years 1870 and 1895, which are rendered spe-
cially interesting by the present mildness. In
1735 January was pleasant and moderate, and
February was summer month in 1873 jan
% in fhoro 1k
two snow storms February was summer
month again, and March the same; in l75l,
January Is, the frost was entirely out Of the
ground, February was like spring, and "the
winter ends wonder through the whole" In
1855, in January, the fish, as they. are reported
sea, the weather being so warm; February WAS
delightful, and March clustering but soft as
May. In 1878 Mr.. Smith records summer
day on January q, wonderfully moderate
the next day, and February 9, mo snow since
robins" In the year l775, February n, the
New York Gazette and Post Boy reported that
''last Wednesday the weather was so uncom-
mon warm that many r. ing lads wentin the
river to SWIM"
These are records all but one Of them moro
than a century old. They notice six remarks
bly, warm winters within period Of forty
years, but coming with no noticeable periodic
| ity. People who are calling this season
strange above all others, indicative that our
planet has drifted into new influences, and who
| are promising all sorts of consequences, may
bear in mind that there is precedent for it all,
and that whether the weather is dvinely dis
pensed each day or is 8 grand sequence under
ordained law which prayer cannot effect, it
Keeps coming and changing hour by hour, and
the peculiar freaks of century and more ago,
/ the period between them and now been one Of
uninterrupted disaster.

Reflection of Chief Justice Moses.

The Legislature met in joint assembly on
Friday last, for the purpose of entering into an
election for Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
1t was understood that there would be no op'
position to the present incumbent, although an
effort was made to postpone the election. One
hundred and twenty-seven votes were cast on
the first ballot, and Chief Justice Franklin
J. Moses, Sr, received one hundred and twen-
ty-three votes without distinction of party
lines. He was declared duly elected Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court of South Caro-.
lima for six years, commencing from the expi-
ration of his term in August next. The Con-
servative vote was cast for Chief Justice Moses
on the ground of his being more acceptable
than any other Republican for this high posi-
ton.

February Term.

The Circuit Court did not open until Wed
nesday morning, in consequence of the nom
arrival of Judge Cooke, who was detained BY
sickness, we understand. His Honor delivered
an elaborate and impressive charge to the
grand jury, enjoining them strictly to enquire
into the management of our local affairs by
public officers, and setting forth the duties re-
quired by law from every officer. The morning
session of the Court was chiefly occupied in
the preliminary investigation Of the dockets,
and arranging for thorough dispatch of the
business on hand. Not much criminal busi-
ness has appeared, and there is good prospect
for the trial of civil cases at this term, with a
view to clearing the dockets of the accumula-
tions of the past year. Solicitor Blythe is at
his post, and wide awake in the discharge of
his duties.
