Gun IN A GIN.-It was reported in
Winnsboro on Saturday that Mr.. Will
liam B. Douglass, who lives i'll the
western portion of the county, had his
hand cut in cotton gin. We have
not heard the particulars. but hope
the accident is not of serious nature.
The State Board Of Canvasscrs. after
hearing argument on both sides,
counted tho Haut Gap and Black Oak
boxes, from Charleston county, over
which SO much fuss has been made by
the Radicals. This, however, does
not change the result Of the election ih
that county and it viii, consequently,
have a Democratic delegation in the
Legislature. The action OF the various
County Boards, in all tho other coun.
ties, was fully sustained by the State
Board. "That do settle it," as the
Radical doctrine is that there is no
going behind the "returns."

as was the custom IN those days, had his

railing and looking down. As the tobacco
spittlc spread itself over the bald crown
and ran do Tn the cheeks of the old clerk,
not knowing the source from whence it came

his surprise that such model officer should

The MEXICAN WAR PENSIONS

! lHE MEXICAN WAR PENSIONS
Washington, January 2O.-Judse Mackey
is actively engaged in urging the passage
OF the bill TO pension the veterans of the
Mexican war. The bill has had two read
ngs in the House, aud will come before the
committee Of the whole of the House on
next Monday, and will certainly pass the
| prescut Congress. The bill restores to the
peusion rslls, with all arrears of pay due,
the pensioners of the Mexican war who
were stricken from the rolls for alleged, dis.
loyalty, and pensions all survivors, mt the
rate Of eight dollars per month from date
OF its passage.
1t appears from the argument framed by
Judge Mac key i'll support of the bill that
the Palmetto Regiment was mustered iute
service on the 18th of December, 1916,
with l,Ol7 men, and was mustered out in
June, 1913, with but 800 survivors, and
there arc but 81 officers and n,en Of that
famous regiment now living. 1t is also sta.
ted that there are but 5000 survivors of
the Mexican war who are entitled to pen
slons under the bill, out of an aggregate
force of $4,000. The official records from
which Judge Mackey cites at length show
that the army fought ten general battles
and 9S engagements in the course of two
years without the loss of single stand of
colors, and that they entered the City of
Mexico, the Palmetto Regiment leading,
with $500 men, and dictated peace with
III walled city, the capital of a foreign
nation, of 10000 inhabitants. The pop
uIation of Mexico at that time was 5000
0O0. We acquired by our arms 100000
square miles of territory, in which are now
embraced California, Nevada, Arizona, Col.
orado, New Mexico, Wyoming, and part of
the State Of Nebraska. The bureau Of sta
tlstics reports that from the territory thus
acquired S1,100, 900 in gold and silver
m have been taken in the past thirty-two years.
Ihc soldiers ask only eight dollars month.
No such results as they secured have ever
been achieved by so small an army for the
country that it served. They more than
doubled the territory Of the United States.

the soil, and the best ploughman is he who
can break up the ground into the finest par

never so too deep, provided you 90 slowly.
Never be in hurry at this kind of work.

"AMAZING GRACE. The following, in
Harp,r's Mggdsine, is vouehcd for by one
Of the most reliable ofPhiladcl phia livincs:
a young clergyman having agreed to
supply the pulpit of an older brother absent
from home, escorted to church the daughter
of the pastor. and after seeing her safely in
her fathers pew, assembled to the pulpit,
unconscious thot this natural attention to
the young lady was sufficient to excite
lively imaginations and inquiries in tie au.
dicnce.
Upon reading the hymn to be sung, the
young Clergyman was surprised to perceive
evident efforts in the congregation to sup
press laughter. The daughter of his friend
possessed the mcllihuous name Of Grace,
and, all unsuspicious Of that fact, he had
chosen the hymn beginning with the words
Amazing grace and proceeding with:
Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear
