What Resumption is Doing Fo
Producers,

The farmers of South Caro- ina. ami
the townstolk too, do not always real
lZe what resumption means. They see
that tho price OF what they have TO sell
goes steadily down, and that In wages
for daily work ther is a decline. But
they do not always pause ID note the
relative difference, as 1t can be seen in
the following quotations for the New
Years days of 1878 and 1879:

TALL SHOOTING. The English SOL
diers aren't having any fun in the
Afghanistan war. The battle of Pei
war Pass was fought among the
clouds, on a rocky cliff, where when a
man was shot he rolled down the
steep descent and broke his leg or
neck at the bottom. One sergeant, an
Irishman, got caught between two
rocks, and was beaten to death with
clubs. At night, the victors "biv-
oucked, without fire at a..height Of nine
thousand feet, under a bitterly cold
sky" This was two thousand feet
nearer the stars than the top of Mount
Mitchell, in our own State, and we
know of no one who ever ventured on
a mid-winter night camp atop Of that
little pile.

to mention the fact that on the End

sumed specie payments. But with
cotton averaging cents, and bacon
the same, there is no occasion for get
ting up any enthusiasm over it. Pad
dys horse would have been taught to
live without food if only he hadn't
wasted away and died of starvatio on
before he learned how to do it.
