'eThe Good 1ime Coming-The Last
Han Out OF Debt.,'

A young friend and relative, who liges
in the Northwestern part Of Georgia,
made us Il visit recently, and said, in
ccnveraation, that the farmers in his sec-
ton had paid out of debt this year. The
last man, who had struggled longest and
hardest, paid the last cent of his indebt-
cdness and hsd bale or two of cotton
left. This is encouraging news from our
sister State, and inspires the hope that
equal good fortune will, ere long, be the
happy lot Of the people on the cast side
Of the Savannah River, and we, too, may
take up the jubilee cry, "out of debt p
This will be the millennium to the fnan.
cial world, and to the farmers, especially,
the era OF commercial independence and
great prosperity. 1t may be that the
same cause which produced this happ-
condition of things in our sister State arc
imperceptibly at work here, and the try
ing ordeal of the present season is but the
forerunner of future prosperity. But lit
tigation did not bring it about in Georgia,
ror will it in Carolina. It was caused
mostly by straightforward dealing on
the part of debtors, and corresponding
leniency on tho part of creditors. AS q
general thing, such q course of conduct
on the part of debtoEs will always have
its legitimate effect on the creditors.
Pay as far as you can, and ask for longer
indulgence, and you will getit. Practice

try, and soon It will be said Of us, as it Is
now said in parts of Georgia, "out OF
debt" Political causes. there as here,
may, and no doubt are an important
factor in the renewal of general prosperi-
ty; and as Georgia experienced political
deliverance little sooner than we, 1t is
not strange that returning prosperity
should sooner be her happy Let. Then
let us take courage, be united among our
selves, and noon will South Carolina be
along side her sister State commercially
as well as politically. T. Il. r.

THE CHRTSTIAN's VICTORY.
By MRS. pAsELlY.

By MRS. DANELLY.
o, Grave, where is thy victory?
o, Death, where Is tiiy sting?
No terror to the Christians heart,
No anguish canst thou bring.
Thou canst not bind the immortal soul
Within thy narrow gauge;
In glorious triumph does II rise
Above thy mystic change.
Not in the dark, cold grave-oli, no!
Our loved one Is not there
Beneath the damp and moulderjng sod
In silence and despair.
For Christ arose, He conquered Death,
Reversed our fearful doom,
And robbed the cold, unfriendly grave
or all It's dismal gloom.
Not in the dark, cold grave-oh, no!
In Heaven our loved one dwells,
And with unapeakable delight
Her raptured BOSOM swells.
Not in the dark, Geld grave oh, no!
From earth y III turn our gaze
And think Of her as lost "a love
And everlasting praisa.

Gold.

WARRINGTON, Jan. DIT was stated
at the Treasury to-day that over e25,
100000 Of coin obligations, including I
million aud four hundred thousand
United States notes, presented for ~
demption, have been paid during the
current month, and yet the stock of coin
in the Treasury Las steadily increased
ny direction OF the Treasury Depart
nsnt all assistant treasurers of tn.
United States will hereafter pay the in.
terest on Government bonds in gold, II
demanded, as was the case prior to Jan.
uary !. The payment Of the January
interest was in legal tenders or coin
checks, on the Sub-treasury at New
York, II the latter were preferred.
The bulk Of this interest has already
been paid, and, except in very few
instances, in legal tenders. Some OBJ
jeotions were made that the Treasury De-.
partment did not pay interest in gold
on January !, but sent those who de-
handed that coin for their interest
payment to New York. This objection
TO redemption is now done away. II
any one wants his interest he can pre-
cure it at any sub-treasury or at the
Treasury here, az we'll as at New York.
The February interest will be the first
considerable sum that will be paid
out In goldQf demanded for interest.
It will amount to about $4,000, 900, but
the Department does not expect there
will be any great demand for gold.
