bale. The freight was paid in Colllm,
4 bia,5 and q day or two aftcrward they
were told that The Charge was by meas
urcment, and that ii was two dollar;
and thirty conts u bale. When tho
| bill itself came it was four dollars anG
twenty cents on the two bales, the
bales being estimated ut tlirty-iive
cubic tcctinstoad Of forty cubic feet
Captain Beatty says this is the first i'll
timation nc had received that tho
charge by measurement. This dclib-
crate advance caused great indigna-
ton, and a meeting of merchants was
held on Friday afternoon, at which ii
was resolved to make II tcst casc.
Messrs. II. Elder ~ co. had OH hand
Il lot of ten bales ofcotton Of about tic
average weight, which were carried to
the freight depot OH Friday afternoon
for shipment to Charlotte. Charlotte
is, ,scvonty-two milos from Winnsboro,
and reckoning .bywcight, the freight at
halfa dollar per hundred fora hundred
miles, would be on q bale $2.25 per
hundred miles, or two and quarter
cents}a bale for ,oncrmile, or $l.G2 on
II balo for, the soNcnty-two miles,
making 5000 for toh bales to Char
lottc. Mr. 1Iucy, Of the firm of Elder
& Co., rendered 8l7 in gold lor The
freight. Mr.. Croight, nf course, act
ing under Instructions smilingly re-
fused the tender, and showed ule tariff
which demanded $3.7Sa balo, or $37 80
for the ten bales. My. Iluoy then paid
the sum Charged, the same being $2l go
more than tho estimate by weight.
Mcssrs. McCants &c Douglass, Gaillard
~ Reynolds and A. M. Nackcy were
then employed as attorneys to bring
suit againstthe road. twill be heard
ut the next term Of court Col. j. II.
Rion is the, regular attorney Of the
road A lively fight is expected, and
the Supreme Court will have its say
before. thesqucstionIis ended.
The charge Of the road appears to be
based on the measurement of thirty
five cubic feet to the bale at the mo,ci-
umirato allowed for bulky articles,
fifteen cents per cubic foot. This
would be 1926 pcr bale per hundred
miles, five and a quarter ccnts q mile,
difference between the limit by weight
and by measurement is S2.l6 a bale to
Charlotte, or within fraction of half
Il cent Il pound. In other words, a
buyer who gives ten cents at present
freight rates could give 1917 if the
estimate were based on the freight.
This is. a matter Of life and death to
Winnsboro, and the people feel it.
We are informed that Col. j. b.
Palmer, who is now in New York,
tclcgraphhcd that if the merchants
would present their grievances he
would see what could be done. A
leading merchant said to us that the
oncr came too late. There had been
enough grumbling and petitioning
Another course will be tried.
Hon. M. L.. Bonham, railroad COM
missioner, OH being apprised of the
state ofthc facts, wrote to the COM
nittcc that President Palmer is now
absontin Now York, but he would sec
him Immediately OH his return. Itnow
looks as if tho whole question will be
thoroughly ventilated, and the pro-
visions ofrailroad charters cloarly de-

Nrv.pAPERs AND SHAMS.-One OF
tbe greatest trials Of the newspaper pre-

cd to see more of the shams OF the
werld than any other profession
Through every newspaper efice' day
after day, all the weaknesses OF the
world; all the yanities that want to be
pua'ed; all the revenges that want to be
reaped; all the mistakes that want 10
be corrected all the dull speakers who
want to be thought eloquent; all the
meanness that wants to get its wares
noticed gratis in the editorial columns
all the men who want TO be set right
who are never right; all the crack
brained philosophers, with stories as
long as their hair, and as gloomy as
their finger nails in mourning because
bereft of soap; all the bores who come
70 stav five minutes, but talk FIVE hours
Through the editorial and reportorlal
rooms all the follies and shams OF the

NEVER GIT ANGEr.-H docs ~
GOOD. Some SINS have seeming CON-
nensatlon Or apology-a present graft
Gconon of some sort-but anger has
none. It is really a torment, ana
when the storm Of passion has cleared
away. it leaves one TO see that he mas
been a fool, and has made himself
fool in the eyes Of others too. An an-
grv man adds nothing to the welfare oi
society. He may do some good but
more hurt. Heated passion makes HIM
q Gro. .brand. and it is a wonder that he
does not kindle flames Of discord on
every hand. Without much senslbilIIy'
and often bercft Of reason, he speake'h
like the piercing Of a sword, aud MS
tononc IS an arrowshot out. lie Is a bad
element in any community, and his
removal would furnish occasion Tor
day OF thanksgiving. Since, then' an
Ger is useless, needless, disgraceiul,
without the least apology, aud found
only in the bosom Of fools, why should
| il be INDUCED at all.

SILENCE TO GoD.-The whole law
for a noble.and deyout life is not alter
ed by reason Of any new circumstance.
r. still remains true that mind silently
waiting before God is the condition
without which such life is impossible.
AS the flowers follow the sun and si-
lently hold up their petals to be tinted
and enlarged by his shining, so must
we. five would know the joy OF God'
hold our souls, wills, hearts and minds
still before Him whose voice commands,
whose love warns, whose truths make
fair our whole being. God speaks for
the most part IN such silence only. Ii
tbe soul IS full Of tumult and jangllng
noises. HIS voice is little likely to DC
heard. As in some kinds Of deafness a
nerpetual noise in the head prevents
hearing any other sounds, the rush oil
our own !evered blood, and the ihrob-
b,nc Of our own nerves hinder our catch
inc His tones. 1t IS the calm lake
which mirrols the sun; the least CATS
nav wrinkling the surface, wipes cut
all the reflected gIories OF the heavens.
IF we would mirror God, our souls must
he calm. if we would hear God, our
souls must be in silence.

How HE CURED A SMOKY CHIMNEY.
Yesterday as a citizen of Woodward
avenue was helping tinsmith to eie'
vate a smoke-iack to the roof OF an adj
dtion on the windy side Of the house,
preparatory to hosting it atop of a smoky
chimney, an old man with a bundle
under his arm came along, halted and
soon became interested.
That chimney smokes, don't 1t" he
finally inquired.
Its the worst one in town. replied
the citizen.

Governor Hampton's Dream.
HE RELIEVES HIS LIFE SAVED BY THE

inr from the severe trials through which
he has recently passed, tells striking
story of dream which the Governor
had in the crisis Of his case, and.tells it
in the Governors own words. The
visitor, about to take his leave, said 10
the Governor.
AT least in all your serious illness
YOU had the devoted love of your own
people,

toned reply, never man more. l be

odist preacher, one Of my old friends
lie wrote me word informing me OF the
deep and devout petitions put up in be-
half OF my restoration by tne 1tvei'v'';@'
Conference then in session at Newber-
ry. He then urged upon me to eXer-
clse nv will to live in response to the
supplications of the people of the whole
state. who were praying for me night
and day in every household in the State
NV sister, who had tremblingly brought
the letter to my bedside and read it to
me. then urged me to listen to the kind
loving words of the man Of God and to
rouse my will to live, and l promised
her TO do so. l fell into a deep sleep
that night, and the most vivid dream l
ever experienced in my life crossed my
slumbers. | dreamt 1 was in 4 spacious
room, and that in it was moved to all
parts of the State, so that met my
assembled friends everywhere. l re-
member most distinctly of all old Beau
fort, where l had last been. 1t seemed
there were immense assemblages, and
as I looked down upon them grave
parsonage approached me and touched
me on the shoulder and said to me {:
These people are all praying Tor you.
Live, live, live! l never realized any
thing like it before. 1t seemed avision.
l woke the next morning feeling the lie
blood creeping through my veins, and l
told my family the crisis was passed
and would get better''
At the close of the touching and
thrilling relation, we bade him good-by,
heartily wishing him speedy recovery
and many, many long years OF health
and usefulness.

NIGHT on THE FARM.

'Tis dewfall on the lonely farm,
The focks are gathered in the fold,
The dusky air is soft as balm,
The daisies hide their hearts Of gold
Slow, drowsy, swinging bells are heard,
In pastures dewy, dark and dim,
And in the door-yard trees, bird
Thrills sleepily his evening hymn.
The dark blue deeps are full Of stars:
one lone lamp in the hillside gl-oms,
A mile away, is red a. Mars
The night Is sweet with faint perfumes
Al bedtime in the quiet house,
Up through the wide old rooms go,
without a lamp-and not mouse
Is stirring. Loudly, to and fro,
The old clock ticks, and easterly
The ancient windows open high
Here the suns kiss will wakeA me,
With bird-songs yelling up the sky.
