FOUR WIDOws.-At Prosperity, q
station on the Greenville and Columbia
Railroad, dwell in reach of the sound of
the whistle four widows.
No. l. This lady, as all the others lost
her husband during the war, and was left
in strnitenea circumstances. Did she sit
down and g-feye at her fate? BY no
means. She has raised four children, be-
sides fine crops, and to-day she has much
of last years cotton and flour on hand, is
free from debt, and is able to pay cash
down for what she wants.
No. 2 looks complacent on all of her
last crop of cotton, and, with sense of
perfect rest and absolute fullness on 5000
pounds of flour, neither of which she mas
sold because she had no use for the
money. the only thing which disturbs
her rest now is what to do with her new
fodder, every place being occupied with
the old. She, too, like true woman.
has raised children and set them up un.
der their own vines and fig trees.
No. 8 struggled through the years
wh;ci: have rolled on since tho late nm
pleasantness, raised ak children. giving
each at majority $500 in cash. Last year
she bought tract of land, for which
81, 400 In good money was paid. Has
corn, fodder, and other things in album
dance.
No. 4, like unto the others, has made
q splendid fight, and brought up n large
family in the way they should go; has
of last years crops abundance, pays cash
in trade, and loans her earnings ont on
interest. Netcoerry Herald.

his wife and Master jesse Grant. You

The FAMINE IN INDIA.-Thc Mar
guis of Salisbury, Secretary of State for
india, speaking on Friday at the prize
distribution at the College for Indian
Engineers, gave very gloomy view Of
famine prospects in India. ~ regret to
say" the Marquis remarked, "tlat our
prospects instead OF Frightening have
during the las; lev weeks become more
gloomy. There appears too much reason
to believe that second period of famine
is settling down over the vast district
which constitutes Southern India, and
that famine cannot do otherwise than
produce terrible mortality. | fear there
is little reason TO hope"
After explaining how the difficulties
Of coping with the famine were increased
by the lack Of railway communication,
and the fact that nearly all the draught
animals had died Of drought, the Marquis
said: "But the physical circumstances
are such that, even if we can prevent any
widespread suffering from actual famine
which very much doubt--thcrc can
be no doubt that severe epidcmics will.

TIE H":".ss-:cM or Eerrcnrs.-A
writer in the Newberry Hcrahi says:
The press of Charleston have just
cause for congratulation in that they
have placed themselves in daily commu-
nication with the mountains, and deserve
great praise therefor, but most respect
fully submit, Mcssns. Editors, that the
needed reform, in which the general pub
lie Is more immediately interested, is the
subject of exorbitant freights. For in
stance, freight for Ncwberry, which is
from 80 to 100 miles nearer Charleston
than Greenyille. is thirty-fivc per cent.
higher than 10 the latter place. Why is
this 50? 1t may be scientific -ailroading,
nut it is utterly impracticabl :, and the
general public cannot appreciate it. The
press must accomplish this reduction in
ficigilts to just standard, ere they can
be looked upon in the light of true re-
formers. At least such is the opinion Of
nine-tenths Of the inhabitants Of the
mountain region.
