THERE seems, few days ago. to have
been . slight unpleasaDtness in South
Carolina between some United States
revenue officers and company of Wade
Hampton'e militia. Four officers had
arrested a peddler for selling tobacco
without license, and while taking their
prisoner to Jail, were met by company
of about 200 miliamen, armed with
Winchester rifles. The militia COM
PEELED the officers to release their pris-
oner, and also forcibly took possession of
the wagon and tobacco which the reve.
nue. men had seized. One of the ring.
leaders in the offense, was q trial Justice,
and another was constable. A deter
mined effort will be made by thereve-
nue. authorities to arrest all the parties
concerned in the outrage, but as the
community in which the offenders live
is strongly opposed to the enforcement
of the revenue laws, serious trouble is
apprehended.

| LATE New York papers state that sew
teral of the leading banking houses in the
East have instructed their agents to
take no more Western loans on mort
cages, unless clause is inserted provid-
ing for the payment of interest and
principal in gold. These gold advocates
seem determined to bulldoze the. West
ern people by refusing to loan US money.
Wei, let them 60 ahead. We don't need
their money. The West would have
been for better off to-day. if not single
dollar Of Eastern capital had been loan
ed here. Our farmers have borrowed
Eastern money, mortgaging their homes
to secure its payment, and in a.majority
Of cases it has ruined them. They gen.
orally did not have any pressing need
for the money, and as times have been
in the last few years, could not possibly
use it so - to make out of it the rate Of
interest which they promised to pay.
We hope these money changers willstick
to their word, and keep all of their mon
ey at home, except such - they may be-
compelled to pay us for our products.
The West does not need to 60 in debt,
and it will be all the better for rs if We

REMARKABLE SUCCESS success
of the leading literary paper of the
West, The Chicago Ledger is truly re.
markable. Since its introduction to the
reading public, six years ago. The Led.
ger has steadily advanced in favor, and
is now acknowledged second to no paper
of the kind in the country. Its circula.
ton is national and has been obtained
through the efforts of its publishers to
produce paper of high moral character,
and at the same time sell it a price con-
sistent with the present hard times.
That they have succeeded, and well too,
the thousands of readers of The Ledger
scattered from Maine to Texas and from
Oregon to Florida will bear testimony.
The CHICAGO Ledger is large forty-eight
column weekly paper, which contains
stories both complete and continued, in
each number written by the best authors
of the day, and great variety of in
formation interesting to every one. The
subscription price of The Ledger is only
$3.50 per year, postage paid. and it is
equal in every particular, to other pa
|pers of the same character which sell for
80 year. Three copies of this valuable
paper will be sent to any one who sends
20 cents and their address to The Ledger

we do not believe the present legislature

THE workmen on the Mormon temple
at Salt Lake have ceased their labors for
the winter. The structure is now eigh-
teen feet above the ground, and the
church organ tells us that it is to be one
hundred and twenty feet high when
completed. The foundation was laid
twenty-four years ago, and if it is rushed

stone in place one hundred and seventy
