GLORIOUS ELECTION RE
TURN,Sl

Remarkable as it may seem, we have
dispatches to the effect that the Demo
Gratis have elected their Governor, even
in Massachusetts, and three members
of Congress, and have carried nearly
every State in which elections were
held yesterday.
The State, district and county tick.
cts are all elected-the latter by q
large majority.
We have based our estimates on
the vote cast for State Treasurer, in
1873, when Hutchinson had 9l2 ma
jority. Out of half the townships and
boroughs in the county, we have re-
ported gains of 1902, making our ma
jority thus far 1904, and if the bal
ance of the county gives similar gains,
our majority in the county will reach
1900. The county ticket seems but
very little behind the State ticket.
A dispatch from Lock Haven states
that Mr. Mackey carried that city by GAO
majority, the usual Democratic majority
being about l50, and that he will have
1,60O majority in the county. Wal
lace and Orvis will have 700 in Clin-
ton and 400 in Centre. We have but
meagre reports from the State at large.
In some counties the Democrats have
made large gains, while in others they
have been overtaken by reverses, ow-
ing TO local feuds.

Major Walker, elected member OF
the Canadian Parliament from Lon.
don, has been unscatcd for bribery, il
having been shown that he had spent
$4,000 in his district to secure his cloc.
tions. The New York Sun says: Thia
is just $1,000 less than Speaker Blaine
is reported TO have spent in his district
TO secure his reelection to Congress.
Before the election it was publicly an.
nounced in thc7New England news
papers that he would spend $4,000 in
the then pending canvass, and having
been reelected he now expects that
the SUCCESS which attended his method
of electioneering will commend him to

daughter, aged about eighteen, was ad-

She usually obtained the clay from tue
road side, where it resembled the clay in
the South OF which the natives are SO
fond. Early this summer, the grasshop-
pers settled down in that region, and soon
began depositng their eggs in the gar

Boomershine girl went on with her clay

a taste for clay, but seemed to banker af

THE undersigned offers his services as
GENERAL LAND AGENT; having establish
ed communication with persons of all classes
who may he induced to buy land IN South
Carolina. It's Of great Importance that the
peculiar attractions offered by our sectlon' 10
those wishing to settle upon their orn lands, be
brought into notice. This can only DC done
by making it specially.
The class of immigrants most needed among
ma fall others, of couI Sc, are welcome, is the
one who brings with himenoughto buy-even
in n smallw way-a certain quantity of our land !;

Ia eas,ly done, by such a one, as one-fourth the
estimated value paid down, will give him a
title, and possession; with three OF four, and
even FIVE years, to pay the balance.
This class of settlers, native or immigrant,
must be dealt with personally must he con-
yinced that this country,with all its adyanta-
oes does exist. and is within his reach. Once
satisfied on this point, the rest is easy. They
know nothing Of our country, heretofore clos
ed to the outside world, and it has to be told
to them.
The object of the AGENCY is to do this: to
appI oacL the man-wheresoever he may be
who has the means, and induce him by state
ments, MADE IN SUOH a WAY THAT HE is
OBLIGED TO PUT FAITH IN THEM 10 IN
vest in our land.
This will give the land a commercial value,
and bring the best class of settlers.
Persons wishing to dispose of lands should
first have them surveyed, and laid off in farms
of from fifty to one hundred and fifty acres
Nothing can be done, under the plan propos-
ed with bodies of land in block. The thing

purchaser.
All business in :h:s connection will receive

From one of Beccher's sermons: "When
temptations fly through the community,
they often take the best fruits that hang
upon the bough of the household, the
sweet-hearted, the sympathetic, the i'm
pulsive, the bcauteous; and when tampta-
ton has shaken off from the bough, it is
the little surly, sour, worthless crab that
is not ripe. The men not overthrown
by temptation are often those who are
censorious. They are often the critics
Of those that do fall. They arc hard men;
they are men that are cold, and that 1t
gives one the chills to shake hands with;
they are men that never feel the swell of
reverberat!ng passions themselves. They
are men that 20 rcck-ribbed and stony
hearted along through life, and talk about
those who give way to their feelings and
90 to destruction. They never gave way
to Meir feelings. that's sure"
