UNDER the heading . Neglected opportunities
in our trade with the Hawaiian Islands," the
Gazette Of this week has some editorial comments
on n dispatch of the American Minister Resident
to the State Department at Washington, which
dispatch however, appears to have been written
over a year age. Passing by the anomaly Of an
editorial heading written in Hawaii nei respect
ing " Our trade with the Hawaiian Islands, -
we proceed to make a few int on the
subject in general.
The editor says that 81 upon the garbled state
ments made Of the dispatch, we were led into an
error, which induced us to write at the time,
what we would not have written if we had had
the dispatch before us as we have it now" We
have examined the article in the Ga-ete of
March 6, 1873, which the editor now declares
was an error, and have compared the extracts
c---~DID STEANIsuIE /
there made from the dispatch which are said to
have been +. garbled. " but we find that in substance
they do not materially differ from corresponding
portions of the dispatch as now printed. There
is one sentence however, which is evidently an
Interpolation by the San francisco newspaper,
and it is this : : The Hawaiian trade is almost
wholly abandoned to British competition" We
do not find this in the dispatch as now printed,
ana IL would De strange II we dld, Tor nothing
could be more untrue. But most Of the editorial
comments in the Gazette of March 6. 1873,
upon some errors in the statement of facts made
by the Minister, and which errors also appear
in the dispatch as now printed, were at the time
considered bere to be just and proper, and indeed
the criticism was so well done that the nominal
editor of that paper was not generally credited
with being the author of it. The article of
last year closes with the following words - We
have written this review of this extraordinary
dispatch more in sorrow than in anger, because,
we repeat, that we are sincerely sorry that the
U. S. Minister should have placed himself in
the unenviable position he has by making state
ments unwarranted by the facts in the case. We
confess we are at q loss to imagine what could
have induced His Excellency to make such Il
mistake so soon after his arrival at his post of
duty" But this week, the Gazette has had
IS a change come Ger the spirit of its Dream"
and says of the dispatch, (Which as we observed
before is substantially the same now as when
reviewed by that paper last year) that &" we
have not the slightest desire to find fault, MS it is
in all respects right and proper" There's n
recantation :

Piedmont Union.

MR. ED1roR: As you are ever ready to
give room in your noble paper to anything
that will interest your readers, and as be-
lieve some of them would like to know how
the Piedmont Association, formerly part
of Twelve Mile River Association, is getting
along, will give you sketch Of their last
Union, which convened with the Noun.
tain Springs Church on the 10Th of August.
The meeting was called to order by Rev.
G. NJ. Rogers, Moderator. The churches
were very we'll represented. The introduc-
tory sermon was preached by Rev. D. w.
Hiatt, and was, as his sermons usually are,
we'll worth listening to.
The following queries were discussed =
Who is the proper judge of pastors salary ?
Are parents responsible for the religious
training of their children?
On Sunday morning at 10 o'clock Kew.
G. M. Rogers delivered very entertaining
Sabbath School address. At II o'clock the
missionary sermon was preached by Rev.
D. Weston Hiatt. In the afternoon Rev.
F. r. McClanahan preached splendid ser
mon from the text, "If thou seek him he
will be found of thee" Chron. %: o.
The Unions, am glad to say, are grow
ing in interest. They are unions of work,
prayer and worship. I'VE are glad to know
that oil are not willing to barter their souls
for worldly enjoyment. The next Union
will convene with the Baptist Church at
Liberty, s. c.. on Saturday before the 9Th
Lords day in November next. PHILo.

a Serious Accident.

Quite serious accident happened on
Tuesday, the End inst, at Cooley's Bridge
to Mr.. Lewis Abercrombie and wife, Mrs.
Hannah Bolt and her daughter, Mrs. Hell
lams, all of whom live a few miles west of
Anderson, and who were on their way to
:Laurens County to attend the funeral ser.
vices of Mr.. Abercrombie's mother, who
died on the day previous. The party were
driving two mules to buggy, and these
animals becoming frightened at the bridge
ran away and smashed the buggy up against
tree, throwing all of the occupants out
and iniuring all of them badly. Mr.. Aber-
crombie was badly hurt on the hip and his
wife had two ribs broken. Mrs. Bolt re-
ceiyed the most serious injury, having her
wrist and jaw-bone broken by her fall, and
Mrs. Hellams was cut in the face and other
wise bruised. The wounded party were
carried to the residence of Mr.. John Chap
man near, where every kindness and atten-
ton was shown them by the household and
the neighborhood, for which they express
the most appreciative thanks. DR.. Vim.
Stokes was summoned and gave attention
to the wounds, some of which were danger.
Gus, and all Of which were very painful
At last accounts the party were improving
rs rapidly as possible under the circum.
stances, and will, we hope, soon be entirely
over their injuries,

Honea Path.

AS it has been some time since our little
burg has been heard from through your
paper, we will drop you few items.....The
farmers in this community are now all
busy gathering their crops. Fodder-pulling
| is going on rapidly, and now the fields are
white with our great staple, two new bales
of which were sold in our market last week
at 10 cents per lb......Our ginners have all
put their gins in proper trim, and have de.
cided to gin for the 10th, and I think with
little persuasion they would gin for moth
ing, and furnish bagging and ties gratis......
The Union Meeting and Sunday School
Union held at this place was well attended,
and the Baptists feel encouraged by the re-
ports from the various Sunday Schools. We
feel proud of the address of our young
townsman, delivered before the Sunday
School, and congratulate him upon his de-
but as a Sunday School lecturer.....R Rev. Mr..
Brownlee, who has been supplying the
to Princeton, New Jersey, to continue his
studies. Rev. Mr.. McLin will supply the
church in his stead......Our merchants, Mr..
NJ. I. Brock and DR.. T. A. Hudgens, have
gone to New York for goods. Mrs. Hud-
gems accompanied her husband......Q an
epidemic Of separations between man and
wife prevails among the negroes round
here......O last Saturday we threw aside
professional cares, and spent gala day at
Mr.. M. Erwins mills. An impromptu pic
mic and letting the contract for building the
Abbeville side of the bridge caused quite
crowd to gather. Mr.. NJ. Erwin took the
contract for 50, 800, and it is needless to say
this will be one of the best bridges on the
river; the Laurens side already built by
Col. Hoke is a splendid piece of work, and
will compare favorably with any bridge on
the river. One of the noted events of the
day was boat ride, in which we made one
of crew of twenty-five, and as We sat sur
rounded by the young, beautiful and gay,
gliding over the smooth waters of Saluda,
we remembered with pleasure. the days,
when we, too, were young, and the cares OF
life had not found an abiding place upon
our brow. During our ride we were treated
with some beautiful vocal music by the
charming Miss @. of Charleston, while the
ph(a)onious voices of others joined in.
Alter the music by the ladies had ceased,
some of the boys sang, inaudibly, such
lines as

No Appeal from Judge Mackey's Decree.

NJ hPPO0A AV4k4 Ooe>6S -><s~NSJ ~~SS~SS'
The following are the proceedings Of the
County Commiss toner's in reference to the
recent decision of Judge Mackey on the
great Rocky River drainage case, the full
text of which we published on the 28th OF
August. The proceedings are taken from
the official report Of their session held on
the End instant, and forever settles the mat
ter: :,
"a from Col. Brown, call
ing the attention of the Board to the decis-
ion of Judge Mackey on the drainage cases,
was read. Col. Brown was invited to make
remarks On the subject of appealing from
the decree, after which the Clerk stated that
inasmuch as he represented the other side
he would withdraw, SO as not to give any
opinion on the matter.
AFTER due consideration the Board decided
not to take an appeal from the decision, and
passed the following preamble and resolu'
tions:
cision Of Judge Mackey reversing the assess
ment of the landowners on Rocky River in
the drainage cases is based upon the eyi-
dence that the parties were not benefited by
the drainage, and that the defendants were
not liable as petitioners, but as beneficiaries,
and it having been decided by court OF
competent jurisdiction that the defendants
are not liable; therefore, in view of the said
decision, the facts presented by the counsel
on behalf of the former Board, and the un-
certainty of litigation. together with the e1-
pense necessary to perfect and carry on the
appeal, and in view of the expense already
incurred by litigating the said cases by the
former Boards,
"Resolved, That this Board refuse to Lei
their names be substituted for those OF The
former Board.
"Resolged, That this Board are opposed tt
engaging in any litigation that will likely
run the County to expense, especially where
the result is doubtful or uncertain, and tina
this Board hereby refuses to engage IN TN IN
said suits or to incur any liability or re
sponsibility in the said drainage eases.

Lot the Re.al. Settle AN Differences.

- , =.
The vote upon the question of subscrib-
ing to the Savannah Valley Railroad has
passed of, and very general good feeling
exists. The little animosities which seemed
to arisein the discussion have been forgotten,
and no further contests or opposition is e1-
pected. This Is as it should be, for so tar as
we have any knowledge Of the differences
on this subject, they were honest differences
of opinion which men had the right to in
dulge and express, and which should not be
remembered or spoken of after the question
is settled. There is no occasion to allow
any unpleasantness to remain from the
vote and those who were successful at least
should not indulge in boasting or threats:
With very few exceptions the discussion Of
the subject has ceased, and the sooner it is
entirely dropped by all parties the better it
will be. The vote on the subscription, in
our opinion, settles the question, and the
work on the Road will be begun as soon as
the taxes are collected in 1880. The work
will be pushed forward rapidly, and Ander-
son will have connection with the sea coast
by two competing lines within a few years.

SOMETHING New UNDER THE SUN.-A new

Hitherto she has been called upon to suffer

The frequent and distressing irregularities

In the mansion of the rich, and in the hovel

Change of Schedule.

The schedule on the Greenville & Colum.
bia Railroad has been changed so as to leave
Anderson at twenty minutes past seven in
the morning going down and at thirty-two
minutes past seven in the evening going up.
Under this schedule the time from Green
vile to Columbia is shortened about one
hour, and in this respect the change is
good one. The hours for the up-country,
however, are very inconvenient. Although
the time has been shortened, the trains come
earlier in the morning and later at night,
which Is both inconyenient as to mails and
troublesome to travellers. We are sorry
that the authorities have not at least let our
hours up this way alone.
