Mrs. Haskell, of this county, mother of

several days ago by mad cat. The cat
was lying on the floor in front of the fire,
and, without any previous evidences of
madness, few at the lady, and it was only
with assistance that she was able to re-
move it. Finally it was removed and
thrown into the yard, when it was very
violent. 1t is hoped that Mrs. Haskell
may experience no bad effects from the
attack of the cat......By recent action Of

- The New York Herald publishes o
lengthy letter from Brazil giving fright
full pictures of drought, famine and pes
thence raging in the northern portion of
that country for more than year past.
1t is said to be the greatest calamity in
two hundred years. Half a million peo-
pie have been swept away by starvation
and disease. Smallpox and black
plague has carried off their victims in
appalling numbers, and thousands of
bodies are rottening in open trenches.
At Lagos Funda thousands of other
corpses have been torn and devoured by
wild animals. The starving peasants
ate their own offspring. In some places,
including the city of Cerea,. the country
has been depopulated. There have been
terrible struggles for life by children
abandoned and young souls sold for bread.
Thousands of living skeletons were to be
seen. Government aid has been tardy.

from $3.50 to $3.50 per ton. Then,
again, by ten or twenty neighbors COM
bining they could doubtless secure better
terms for large amount of fertilizer
than is given to the single purchaser; so
that by proper management we have no
doubt our farmers who are able to do so
could save from five to ten dollars per
ton by paying cash for their fertilizers,
even if they have to borrow the money
from bank. We throw out this sugges-
tion and calculation that any who feel
inclined to do so may consider it and act
as their judgment dictates.

Mr.. A. g. Terry, Chicago manufac-
turer, who came down to Columbia a few
weeks ago to prospect on the propriety of
establishing manufactures, has decided
to locate large factory for the manufac-
ture of cotton and woolen hoes suitable
for the Southern market. The necessary
papers have been drawn, and the con-
struction of the building will soon be
commenced. The machines to s6e' used
are principally operated by hand, and
will be located within the walls of the
South Carolina penitentiary, and worked
by one hundred convicts who have been
hired for that purpose. We are glad to
welcome Mr.. Terry to South Carolina as
the pioneer of the immigration move
ment which is likely to flow rapidly into
our State for the next two years. Mr..
Terry was in South Carolina at the time
che fertilizer discussion was atits height,
but has too much sense to be frightened
off by the pretended dangers to manu-
facturers which the Nc,rs and Courier has
been so industriously circulating through
out the country. Mr.. Terry will make a
practical experiment in'manufacturing at
the South, and if successful will do much
to induce the location of factories at Co.
lumbia, and thereby assist in the develop
ment of the great canal, from the COM
pletion of which such grand results will
be reaped by Columbia.

The Augusta Chronicle and Constitu-
tionalist speaks thus of an important en-
terprise in which portion of the readers
of the INTELLIeENCER have deep in
terest, and which is an undertaking that,
if carried out, will afford great and in
Vulnerable advantages to the whole
State:
A railroad is now in process of build
ing from this city to Greenwood, S. c.,
a point on the GreenvilIe and Columbia
Railroad, and charter was oh.a.::ces at
the last session of the South Carolina
Legislature for section of this new road,
known as the Bolton, Williamson and
Easley Railroad. This road is projected
as another line designed to cross the
Blue Ridge mountains from South Car
olina into Western North Carolina and
East Tennessee. 1t will cross the At
lanta and Charlotte Air Line at Easlsy,
one of the most beautiful and healthy
locations on the Air Line. Easley is
said to have an altitude second only to
Mount Airy, Georgia, of the many Air
Line towns between Charlotte and At
lanta. This new road, as just surveyed,
will run around the eastern spur of the
Table Rock, fifteen miles north OF Eas-
ley, and thence up the valley of Saluda
river, not far from Celar's Head noun
tain, thence across the Blue Ridge,
through Estatoe gap, to the head of nav
igation on French Broad river. 1t will
connect the great grain and stock-pro-
ducing sections of Kentucky, Tennessee,
the C0rolinas and Georgia with the At
lantic seaboard and cotton belts of the
South.

The Savannah News saws

The opposition of the farmers and
planters of this State to the advanced
price demanded by the dealers in
fertilizers appears to be on the increase,
and they seem determined not to pay the
amount asked. A letter from a we'll
known fertilizer manufacturer has been
shown us, which solves the whole ques-
tion.
1t says: "We are offering high grade
fertilizer here (the place MANUFACTURED
at eighteen dollars per ton cash, but your
planters prefer to pay double that price
on the ruinous plan Of buying on time
for cotton.
The cash system is the one by which
our farmers can save money, and We see
no reason, therefore, why they can not
make arrangements to avail themselves
of the advantages which are here afford
ed them.
If the News will give the name of this
manufacturer, and he will do little adj
vertising that the people may know where
to find a high grade fertilizer at eighteen
dollars per ton. there will be no more
trouble about the guano problem, but
there con hardly be anything in tho state
ment of this manufacturer. Fertilizers
are sold here for forty dollars per ton
cash, and the manufacturers assert that
they could not sell even at thirty dollars.
We would be obliged if the Me'us can
put us on track of the manufacturer re-
ferred to, that we may bo able to inform
our planters where they can save over
over fifty per cent. in the purchase Of
their manures. We, however, agree
with the manufacturer that the cotton
option plan of buying fertilizers is inju-
rious to the farmer, for it places his first
cotton at the disposal of the manufactu-
rer, and requires large margin for the
decline of cotton without any chance Of
the farmer reaping benefit from the
advance, unless it reaches fifteen cents
per pound. In our opinion, it would
pay GuC luEuleTb 10 UOIIOW luOucJ lIUm
the Bank to pay cash for their guanos,
even at forty dollars per ton, if the cot
ton option price is fixed at forty dollars.
A simple calculation will show this to be
the case if cotton should go over nine
cents per pound, which it is sure to do
at some time before the first Of January.
For instance, say the money is used from
April lst to January lst-nine months
the interest would be $9.70, making the
ton of fertilizer cost $43.70; but the
price of 500 pound bale of cotton at Q
cents would be $500, while if it should
go to ten cents, as it frequently does, the
price would be $4,000, SO that the farmer
could save from one 10 sir dollars per
ton on his guano by this course, Or, by
shortening the period of the loan to six
months by paying for the fertilizer the
first day Of Mry and paying his notes on
the first of November, the interest would
only be $3.50, so that his profits would be

LAST OF THE SEM1SoLEs.-John, an

it again--a threat he summarily executed
upon repetition of tho offence, plum

Our correspondent, "T. H. R." thinks
the Legislature made mistake in re-
ducing the pay of Trial Justices in this
County, and gives very good reasons for
his position, if it were not that the num-
Der of Trial Justices has been increased,
and hence a Trial Justice ought not to
receive as much compensation for attend
ing to the criminal business of one town.
ship ss for two or three. A portion of
the delegation favored increasing the
number of Trial Justices, while another
portion was unwilling to increase the
expense to the County, and hence the re-
duction was effected. AS to the pro-
priety creasing the number of these
officers /, --e may be some difference of
opinion, but there will be very few who
would contend for the increase Of the
salaries to the amount which was former
ly paid each officer when he had double
the amount of criminal business which
he now has. The fees of Trial Justices
in civil cases are not affected by the new
law. They are allowed salary for GRIM
inal business, and get their perquisites
besides in civil cases. The best evidence
that the present compensation is sufi-
cient is found in the fact that there has
been number of competent and suitable
applicants in each township. The COM
pensation is small, but then the service
should be restored to its position of honor
which made the best men in the country
willing to serve in the capacity of Magis-
trate before the war.

The Augusta Chronicle and Constitu-
tionalist, speaks of the reasons which
resulted in the defeat Of Col. Thompson,
the gifted and patriotic editor Of the
Savannah Ne'cs, for representative in
Congress to fill the unexpired term occa-
stoned by the death of Hon. Julian Har-
fridge. The reasons assigned by the
C6nstitutionahst arc no doubt correct, for
the editor who dares stand up in the de-
fence of right for a series of years is
sure, if he be any account, to make hun
dreds of enemies, who have at some time
wished to pursue a course which it be-
came his duty to attack. Our Georgia
contemporary says:
perhaps the fact that he had been
the editor Of leading journal for SO long
a time had o good deal to do with Col.
Thompson's defeat. Journalists are COM
PEELED to express their opinions in print,
and it is safe to say no other class of men
make so many enemies. Others give
their views in private conversation and
to q limited audience. The journalist
speaks to the world about him, and no
one ever. forgives an afront or injury in
print. The newspaper editor is forced to
deal with all the questions that present
themselves, and in every case he antago-
nizes some interest or ofends some indi-
vidual. Often he arouses enmity where
he had no intention to do so, and little
paragraph written from the best of mo-
tives will hit some one and rankle in his
breast for a lifetime. 1t is principally
because of these things that SO few jour
nalists have been successful politicians.
1t is true that there are now in high po-
sitions many men who were once journal
lists, but it is equally true that nearly all
of them ceased 10 be editors before they
attained distinction in politics"

MORE REVENUE ARREsTs.-Since our
last issue the following additional arrests
have been made by Revenue officials, and
brought before Commissioner Thornley,
for preliminary hearing: S. j. Adams
and two of his sons, Daniel B. and Sam
uel. There was no proof against the
father, and for want of sufficient evil
dence, samuel was discharged. Daniel
was bound over in bond for his appear
ance at the August term Of the United
States Court at Greenville. Eugene,
Quincy and Henry Nav, three brothers
have also been bound over to the August
term of Court. These parties were

A correspondent of the Ne,ps and Cou-
rier from Barnwell makes q center shot
at what he we'll terms growing evil.
We do not know the name of this CORES
pondent, nor the particular evil Of which
he complains, but we do know that his
remarks are worthy of consideration and
adoption. The public sentiment of
South Carolina should be brought to
bear to secure retirement of favoritism
from the control Of our State. The cor
respondent says:
have come to the conclusion that the
old maxim Hor Popui, Hor Del is all a
lie. / have arrived at this conclusion
from these facts. If it was true, then it
would always prevail. Secondly, if it
was true, then it would assurcdly be for
the best Apply these tests, and it fails
most signally. In the first place it does
not prevail. We are painfully convinced
of this when we know that there are ap-
pointees in Office in our county that have
been placed there against the popular
voice of those most Interested, and the
appointing and confirming power knew it
to be SO when it was done. Our repre-
sentatives found out the desire of the
people and made nominations according
~, but some "power behind the throne"
intervenes, and somebody's darling"
steps in, too often to the great detriment
of the general good. 1 think, 1 know,
that it is high time in South Carolina,
where we cry so much for civil service
reform, that some other qualification than
favoritism should be REQ equired when an
Office is to be filled, either by appoint
ment or election. This thing of filling
important Offices with men who are al
together incompetent to discharge the
duties required of them, simply because
they need help or have done something
in some other line that entitled theu to
the well-wishes Of their fellow w-citi2ens, is
a growing public evil. 1t is turning the
Government into a vast eleemosynary
asylum, and will inevitably bring it to
grief. A man may be able to shoe a
horse capitally, but that is no evidence
that he will excel as portrait painter.
Let favoritism stand back, and fill the
public Offices with men who can work
them successfully and to the best advan-
-tage for the public, and our State will
begin 10 prosper.
