Ten thousand laboring me

Ten thousand laboring men are
begging the Boston authorities for work.
Municipal governments are not elee-
mosynary institutions, but in such. ex.
ceptional time, as these, they can afford
to strain point to relieve the distress of
the working classes, who are eager to
earn their daily bread, and lack only the
opportunity.

SIGNS oF PROSPERITY.

It will thus be seen that notwithstand-
ing the direful results of war which
swept away the bulk of our properly, and
the malignant cupidity of corrupt car
pet-bag government, which, until the
present year, have ground our people to
the dust by unparalleled robbery and op-
pressive taxation; Notwithstanding the
strenuous efforts under the guise of re.
construction to invert the social pyramid
by placing the Caucasian under the
domination of 8 recently enfranchised
negro race. Still the people of South
Carolina have marched boldly and in
dustriously forward in the race of pro-
gress, until. at last they have an honest,
economical andliberal State government,
inaugurated under the leadership of the
noble and high minded Hampton, and il
our beloved Carolina DOES not blossom as
the rose, her SONS are at least hopeful and
manfully struggling to place her in the
front rank of commercial and agricultu-
raj advancement. Our State contains an
area of about 30,213 square miles or 49,
435, $50 acres, and averages in length 189
and in breadth 16o miles. With such q
territory we could accommodate many
times our present population, which bsre-
ly exceeds 100000. With such a variety
of agricultural products rs she is capable
of producing, with such a treasure house
of mineral wealth, and with such climatic
advantages as she possesses, where can
the emigrant, whether from Europe or
from our own sister States of the North,
select a more inviting home. Land is
cheap, and the people ready to sell. We
say then to those who are honest and in
dustrious, come and you will find hos
pitable reception. In Aiken County a
considerable number of Northerners,
representing Massachusetts,, Connecticut,
New York, New jersey and Michigan,
have located, and are so well satisfied
that since the establishment of the
Hampton government many of them
have increased their investments.-G r.

about Charleston for many miles is one

under the cunning manipulations of the
workman and the scientific treatment of
the chemist, yields the most valuable of
commercial fertilizers. The mining of
this rock affords employment to thou

found in the vicinity of Columbia, the
capital of the State. 1t is of this same
material that the costly and elegant State
House commenced before the war, but
still incomplete,) is constructed. All
that is needed is the capital and enter
prise to quarry it, and it would take q
front rank in the line of building mate

Touching upon the cruelties practiced
by the Turkish people in warfare, the

key toward her Christian subjects would
compare favorably with the course pur-
sued by the Christian nations Of Europe,
dominant, toward their Chistian subjects.
No chapter in history was as black with
crime and horror as that which records
the rule of Russia in Poland as late as
1881, or 1916, 1S48, or 1863. The people
of Turkey often broke out in rebellion
against Christians, but no such atrocity
as that of burning people at the stake
for their faith could be recorded against
them.

State is being utilized by the erection of
cotton factories, which affords employ.
ment to thousands of our population, and
which will enable US to retain within our
borders immense sums of money, which
has hitherto gone to enrich Eastern mill
owners. All Us these factories, whether
located in the middle or up-country, pay
good dividends. The goods are of fine
quality, and many of the mills have or.
ders months ahead of their production,
and they always were on full time. It
would open the eyes of some of those who
think that every one down this way is
asleep, to walk through the Graniteville
or Langley mills, of Aiken county, and
see the beautiful system and order that
prevails, and examine the quality of the
material produced. The GraniteYille
Company is building at the present time
another factory on the site OF the old
Vaucluse mills. When this is COM
pleted, Aiken county will number three
large cotton factories, besides paper
mill; chalk beds and pottery works.
At Greenville, Spartanburg and other
places the same spirit is manifested.
These mills are run mainly by home
capital, and consume great deal of cot
ton direct from the hands of the pro-
ducer, and are matter of pride and
profit to the State. The day is not far
distant when the Eastern mill owner will
find he cannot pay freight on the raw
material to Boston, and then successfully
compete with Carolina or Georgia goods
in price. When he realizes this fact he
will need no additional inducement to
bring his mill to the cotton fields, and
thus involuntarily assist in the work that
we ourselves have comm enced. But
aside from the facilities afforded by our
splendid water power for the erection of
factories, various other fields of labor
present themselves to the enterprising

HINTS FOR THE HOUSEHOLD.

Whit to Do Wih Cola Potatoes.-To
every dozen. which should be grated,
add egg and a little nutmeg, mix and
form as Goldfish cakes, fry brown and
serve with stewed cranberries.
Hard Lard for PdStry.-Lard for
pastry may be used as hard as it can be
cut with knife, and it will make far
better paste than if left to warm. 1t
needs only to be cut through the flour
not rubbed.
OIL ont of Hooien.-You can get a
bottle or barrel of oil off any carpet or
wooden stuff, by applying dry buckwheat
plentifully and faithfully. Never put
water to such grease spot, or liquid of
any kind.
The Use OF Sdleratus-The free use
of saleratus, so much consumedin bread,
is excessively injurious to the human
system 1t is particularly liable to in
duce muscular prostration or paralysis,
and is sure to injure the digestive or
pans. OF course. it is most fatal to
children, whose delicate organization is
more sensitive than that of grown per-
sons.
To Cure Corns.-Bathe the corn with
strong borax-water, then shave it close
ly, but be careful not to make it bleed.
Place over the corn white felt corn
plaster and wear it constantly until the
corn has disappeared. Every night and
morning wet the small cavity over the
corn (and in the plaster) with little
borax-water, or if preferable the pulp of
lemon. The corn-plasters can be pro-
cured at any druggists.
To Keep Irorg Handles White-The
whiteness may be restored to ivory ham
dies as follows: Wash with soaped
flannel and lukewarm water; then wipe
very dry; soak them occasionally in
alum-water that has been boiled, and
allowed to cool; let the handles lie for
one hour in this; then remove them and
brush them well-say with nail-brush;
after this take clean linen towel, dip
it in cold water, squeeze it out, and while
wet wrap in around the handles, leaving
them in it to dry gradually. as if dried
too rapidly out Of the alum-water the
handles will be injured.
Qatnce JeUy.-Pare and slice the
ounces; add for every pounds of fruit
cupful water; put peclings, cores, and
all into a stone jar; set the jar into a
pot of boiling water; let it boil until the
fruit is soft and broken; strain through
a stout, coarse bag or cloth; to each
pint of juice allow pound of white SUI
gar; set the juice on alone to boil, and
while it is warming place the sugar on
flat dishes to heat in the oven; have the
sugar hot, but do not let it burn; boil
the juice just 20 minutes from the time
it begins fairly to boil; throw in the hot
sugar; stir quickly all the time; as soon
as the sugar is dissolved remove the
kettle at once from the fire; fill your
glasses with the scalding liquid.

A SHORT time ago accounts were pub
ished of movement to increase the tax
on beer 10 $1.60, in order to raise addi-
tional revenue to meet the expenses of
the Government. Those calculations
were based upon the understanding that
deficit in the Government receipts
would be apparent when the accounts of
the past year were balanced. But it ap-
pears from the recently furnished state
ment of Government receipts and ex-
penditures for the past fiscal year that
no increase of taxation will be necessary.
especially under Secretary Sherman's
construction of the Sinking Fund law.
He holds that contributions to that
fund are not only not paramount, butmust
be subordinate to the satisfaction of
other expenses of the Government, par
ticulariy while, as now, the fund is
largely over-supplied. The treasury
statement above alluded to shows that
the receipts from internal revenue were
$11O,581, 624.7 "a during the fiscal year
1878, that being fraction over S.
100000 less than in the preceding year,
but only So, 147, 689 less than in 1873,
the year of the financial panic. The re-
ceipts from customs, on the other hand,
have steadily decreased, since 1873,
when they amounted to fraction over
1888, 100000. Last year they amounted
to $3.50, 170,68O.2O. The net revenue
from all sources last year reached in
round figures $257, ESQ, 900, that being
$40, $50, 900 in excess of the net ordinary
expenditures.

vote upon the Hale amendment, which
would have permitted an investigation
into Democratic frauds. jeff Davis
makes as reasonable speeches as those
OF 1861, and he receives the in
dorsement and approval of large pro-
portion OF the press and people. Out of
LOO newspapers in Mississippi nine
ty-fve indorse and applaud JEFF
Davis. Mr.. Singleton, of the
same State, on the floor of the House of
Representatives, declared his highest
allegiance to be due to his State, both
IN peace and war. By the adoption of
the Fifteenth amendment the political
power OF the South in the Electoral Col
lege and in the House of Representa-
tlves was increased about 40 per cent.
me Republican party to-day can poll,
II permitted to do SO, 40 per cent. OF the
vote of the South. Yet in the coming
elections do not believe that we can
carry one in five of the districts that we
know to be reliably Republican. By
force and fraud the political power Of
40 per cent. of their people is exercised
solely by the 60 per cent, thus making
a solid Democratic South, The right
of the citizens Of the several States to
enjoy the privileges and immunities of
all the States is not respected in many
localities. It is said, condescendingly.
that a Republican can live in the South
without trouble If hewill keep paddock
on his mouth. Now, my fellow-citizens,
there 7, can be no lasting peace until
ton Il be- g.
tlon are executed in good faith,
and in letter and spirit. A solid South
is constant menace to the peace of the
country. It means that the constitu-
tlonal amendments shall be abrogated
and repealed in spirit; it means the
usurpation by the majority of all the
political power OF one section of the
country, and with fragment of the
other section of the country and solid
South, inspired, as it is, by the spirit
and the men who sought the overthrow
OF the country, to now rule and control
it. And yet they may be in large
minority in the whole country. Such
success, If it is submitted to, means the
payment Of the rebel claims. the pen
sioning Of rebel soldiers, the payment
for slaves lost in the rebellion. I feel il
my especial duty to say that, as long as
the menace of the solid South threatens
the peace of the country, it is the duty
of the North to be united against it. I
am as DESTROYS as any man can be that
we shall get away from sectional poll
tics, but I cannot close my eyes to the
danger of solid South. The advice I
give is simply that ordinary prudence
and care be exercised. [ repest that, so
long as the menace of a solid South ex-
lists, it is the duty of the North TO con-
tinue to meet it with "the most Greeks"

FLOOD, the California millionaire, is
building what will, it is said, be the
finest private residence in America.
The grounds include 800 acres on San
Francisco bay, comprising a natural
park ready for improvements to any
desired extent. The house is 100 by
200 feet in area, and resembles French
chateau of the old style. Verandas
surround it, and the roof is broken with
many gables and two towers 140 feet
high. The entire exterior is very ornate.
Among the apartments are several par
Tors, music room, dining room, break
fast room, billiard room, library, and
wine room, the latte, being of uncommon
size. The dining room is 100 feet long,
SO that great dinners may be given in it,;
but most of it can be shut off, leaving a
room of comparatively small size for
ordinary use. Five years will be con-
sumed in completing the house and it's
surroundings Mr.. Flood also contern-
plates city residence of corresponding
magnifoence.

THE Turks lost about 100000 men
killed and wounded during the recent
war, and, according to the E,avuzide
RuSse, something over 100000 cart
ridges were fred by the Russians, which
would make the proportion of hits one
in every twenty-six shots fred. At
Spioheren the Prussians scored one
Frenchman for every 279 shots, at Worth
one for lat, and at Colombey-Nouilly
one for ia, SO that, if the Russian fig
ures are correct, the Russian soldier is a
better shot or more economical of am
munition than his German cousin. How
ever, the Russians employed artillery
fire more largely than usual, and Lon
don paper hints that they have used the
bayonet after their enemies had sur.
rendered.

THE Howard Associations name
linked with deeds of Christian charity
is society permanently established to
provide medical treatment, nurses, and
provisions for sufferers from yellow fe-
yer. 1t was organized about twenty
five years ago at New Orleans, during
the prevalence of this much-dreaded
plague in that city. 1t took it's name
from John Howard, the famous English
philanthropist, and branches Of the as
ISOLATION have been formed in all places
peculiarly liable to the terrible vista
tions OF the fever. It's members are
true-hearted, whole-souled men, I'M,
known as individuals, 1t may be, but
pledged as an organization to unite
their efforts to relieve those who are
sraitten down with disease, and often
deserted in their hour Of need by a
panic-s stricken community. During the
ravages Of yellow fever the present
season, as in times past, the Howard
Association has done it's best to alleviate
suffering.
