There once was %reaser bod and staid, Don Gomez del GomazZa, Who loved q gentle Grcaser maid, The Dona Front ntpiazZa. Don Gomez rode mustang rroud And wore bloody slasher, Of all the galluS Grea>er crowd IIe was the boss heart-smasher. Don Gomez once was tempted sore, Despite of law and order, To glul his greedy thirst for gore And cross the Texan border. "So fare ye well, me ady fair, My pretty little Dona!" In vain she tore her raven hair, Her Gomez was a goner. Then hied he 10 the Rio Grande, With Yankee horde to battle; He crossed into the promised land And went to stealing cattle. And there with more than royal pluck He did hls pleasing duty, And, meeting with uncommon luck, He started home with booty. But oh, the Yankees, fierce aud strong, While marching out to battle,  Bcheld Don Gomez come along \ driving them there cattle. They gathered in the festive steers And snaygcd that gallus Greaser, Ard, with round of hootS and jeers, They hanged him to a tree, sir. Loud walled the Greaser maiden fair, He Dona Frontpiazza; Once more she tore her raven hair For Gomez del Gomazza.

Way Prospcctors seldom Get Rich.

Many who are not familiar with mining, its druwbIcks, it's expenses etc, wonder how it is that SO few of our prospectors be- come wealthy But it should be remenl- bered that large expenses attend the open ing of mine, digging and blasting through solid rock making openings for working aud ventilation. When fully understood no one will ask why one person does not succeed. If his bank account is large enough he will Look at the cost of the openings and machinery on the Comstocll, the richest of the rich. Does anyone think that one individual could stand 1t? So it is with the prospector He finds tine mines, and as miner knows he.cannOt go into the earth and open up the mine on pay ing basis; he knows he must contend with hard rock, must timber, must open levels and air passages; he needs machinery to pump and to hoist, and hen. after his ore is on the surface, what has he? 4 lot of rock containing precious metal, with a lot of base metals. This must go through process of working that requires more machinery. He has no bank account, owes the tailor for his clothes and the grocer for his grub, and must sort out the best of his rock and sell il at a sacrifice to keep hiTn in daily bread Is it not wise to sell his claim for few thousand dollars and return to lis old home in the land of civilization? Yet how few do IL. He cannot resist the love he has for the miners life, the charm of being away from all the works of man alone with God and nature, delving into the mountain, prospecting the gulches and rayines, in hope of finding the miners greatest hope, a bonanza of gold on the surface, as vas found in early days in Cali fornia, in place of which he finds silver, or lead, or copper If these show well he tries them, hoping that he may develop some- thing that will attract the monied men of the cities, and then make another stake for himself di-d visit his old chulns at home.
 Mining, like all other business, must be conducted with economy, and wantsa a prdc ,ical miner at its head. Nearly all the fail urcs of eastern investments have been caused by sending out some friead CT rela- tinn of some of the company to take charge of the mines, who has not tie slightest idle of how silver anGg gold mines are found, let alone how they should be worked. What can such perso.s be expected to know of milling the ore to get the precious metal away m the base?
 Theory is good and practice is better, but theory and practice are far above either alone Let your metallurgcal students go into the mines and there learn to swing the pick, to drill, to blast, and to distjn- guish ore from barren rock; let them go Into the field and become familiar with the practical part of mining life, and then less money will be thrown away and squander- ed, and many d valuable property, in place of being condemned, will be made to yield many returns for the money invested.

Mr.. EDITOR: If coming events cast their
shadows before, the prospects of indepen-
dent candidates is under a dark shadow.
The unity of action exhibited by the late
County Convention must have struck every
casual observer. So far. so good. The
Democracy of Anderson gained strength in
its last Conver lion. The several Demo-
cratic Clubs in the County acted wisely in
their selection of delegates. While the peo-
pie are willing to devote their time, talents
and energies in maintaining their irself-rcspect
and guarding their liberties, the country is
safe. But eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty"
If there be any who hoped to hoist them
selves into office by playing the demagogue,
such unanimity as marked the lost Conven-
ton on the part of the Democracy through
out the coming campaign will put quietus
on all the ambitious hopes of independents.
No independent candidate need think that
the Anderson Democracy will sell its BIRTH
right for mess of Radical pettage. The peo-
pie have learned lesson. Ten years of
successful stealing ought not to happen
more than once in the same generation.
To suffer the government to get into the
hands of Independents is to put it into the
hands of the Radical party (which is only
synonym for thievery) two years hence.
Beware of wolves in sleeps clothing.
PERSEUS.

leisure, to cooperate with Maj. Murray in
making whatever arrangements they might
deem necessary. Motion prevailed.
/ The Executive Committee was instructed

coming campaign for the use Of the Demo-
cratic party.

preparations were being made for the re-
view on the r1orning of the 9th instant

tary organizations of Oconee, Greenville,
Pickens and Abbeville Counties to be pres

Shortly after the arrival Of the Greenville

Of the 18th instant, policeman arrested
one Frank Gaillard, colored, from Anderson
County, who had in his possession dia-
| mond ring which he had offered to sell to
Mr.. C. c. Radcliffe, the jeweler, for mere
trihe. The prisoner claims that the ring
belongs to his wife. He will, however, be
cared for by the police, until information
can be received from Anderson as to who
he is and what right ne has to be wearing
diamonds and the "duds" of tramp.
The epicurcs of Anderson enjoyed the
elegant supper furnished by the ladies Oh
last Tuesday evening. The sweet smiles OF
the young ladies, the delicious cakes, fruits,
ct ceteras, made some of the bachelor por'
ton of our population open their eyes and
stare as if they had walked up suddenly in
some fairy land. And then how those fel-
lows opened their mouth, was really alarming.
The entertainment was splendid success,
and the ladies merit much praise in their
efforts to assist the Palmetto Band in furn-
ishing our town with good music. Weraise
our hat, and in behalf of the young men
who compose the Band return thanks for the
supper; in behalf of the epicures we say
thanks, and for the bachelors. who never
see and admire beauty only ut distance,
we say thanks for the happiness it afforded
them to be permitted to stand off and ad-
mire-osly this and nothing more.
Some music dealers North will soy and
put more on paper and send it oil over tho
country than they dare tell you to your face.
Do not be humbugged, but come to Mrs.
