Two or three years ago little girl, whose
parents live in this county, attended school
at Greenwood Seminary Mrs. NJ. L. Run
yan's school. studied hard, and learned
rapidly, but at the end Of the session, her
father being too poor to send her longer, she
was compelled to give up her studies. Ever
since she has longed to return, and early
this last spring she went to her father and
told him she wanted some land TO tend in order
to make money enough to pay for her school
ing this winter, and he gave her half acre OF
new land that was not cleared. She went to
work with a will, cleared off the under
growth, got her brother to break it up for
her, and set it in tobacco, which she has
worked ever since, unaided by anyone, and
now has splendid crop. 1t will be sold
this fall, and by Christmas she will return
to her beloved books. II the young men
in her neighborhood let this girl remain
single long after she leaves school they will
stand very much in their own light, for she
will make some man splendid wife.

AN INGENIOUS DEvIcE.-The Reno Gazette
in an exhaustive article on sheep raising, tells
how tho kerders make mother who has lost
her lamb adopt one that has lost its mother
He skins the dead lamb and ties the skin upon
the orphans back. The ewes sense of smell
is thus deceived and she, so to speak, takes
the notherless lamb to her bosom. 1t is prob
able that she does net do this without some
msgivings, because she does not recognize the
bleat Of the disguised lamb as that Of her
own offspring. She may remark, after the
manrer Of the deladed patriarch, in the scrip
lures, that the skin is her own lambs skin,
bat tho voice is another lambs. 1t ia likely
that . distsnded udder helps to induce the
sheep in such cases to give the lanb the ben
eft Of tho doubt.

Butler now says that he was accosted by man

extent with his grievances, that he finally add
vised him to seek more congenial climate if
he was not satisfied with the country he was

Snow IN THE SIERRAs.-Ths enormus
deposits of snow which fall on the summit of
the Sierra Nevada seem almost incredible.
People who live on the Atlantic coast or in the
interior can hardly realize body of snow

Summer. The Reno Gazette has compiled a
table which gives some idea of the vast amount
of snow which falls yearly in the mountains.

THE NATIONAL CONVENTION.

Last nights telegraphic dispatches from

succeed IN securing the nomination from tho
hands of the National Convention. Last
night the Blaine men were in high feather
II might a. we'll be borne in mind at this

been worked in his interest. The very tone
Of the dispatches indicate decided hostility
to Grant. The concession made by Cameron
TO the anti. third term faction is held to be .
victory for the Blaine men. 1t would appear
that the reverse was true a. the Cameron fac
ton would hardly make such concessiOns if
they did not feel assured that tho day was
theirs. The main fight seems to be over the
unit rule, and it is claimed by the Ass sciate
Press reporter that there will be split IN the
Conventien over the proposition. There is
nothing from . reliable source Is yet to indi-
cate that Grant will not be the choice of the
convention. The Democratic press il using
every endeavor to magnify the differences now
existing. and make tho country believe that
. rapture Of 30 serious q nature will occur
to jeopardize the interest Of the Republican
party in the Presidential campaign. This il

IMPARTIAL JoUNALIsM.-J. T. Pope, a
wealthy citizen Of Stockton, gave his wife 4
severe beating a few days ago and was ar.
rested a. John Doe. The officers tried hard
70 keep ths offenders name out Of the papers
and 50 did his friends. The Mail, however
had tho courage to give full account of the
affair and call editorial attention to the fact
% follows:
If Mr.. Pope had been poor man, handling
sacks of wheat in . warehouse for two dollars
aud half . day, instead Of farmer worth
Two hundred thousand dollars, it is pretty
safe to say that the officer who arrested hin,
would have given the full nane, with q graf.
uiteus suggestion that he ought to be shown
up. But rs h. is rich, the case was different
in his eyes, and in the eyes of the Court.
But it il not different in the opinion of the
Nail. We think i. is al tho mere aggravated,
aud cries all the more loudly for publicity.
Notwithstanding tho efforts Of tho LEGAL au-
thorities to keep Mr. Pope's name ont Of the
paper, it 10 printed to-day in tho disgracefsl
connection which he by his shameful conduct
has placed it. The Mail will always get the
aan,es Of these offenders. and publish them.
1t has no respect for man who beats his wife,
whether he 30 rich or poor.

TIE editor Of the Paradise Reporter talks to
his subscribers as follows:
Two men have been busted out trying to run
this paper on wind. With the example of our
predecessors staring US in the face, We shall
make no further experiments of the wind pro-
cess. If the people want paper they must
support it; if they wont do this, then We shall
be compelled to close the shebabg. We have
to buy paper and pay printer. and We cant do
this On nothing.
The editor should make no further attempt
to assist the people of Paradise. They lack
the enterprise to support newspaper and
should be left to paddle their own canoe.

Homicide. North and sou,h.


Mr.. H. " Rodicld, who is well known as
Que of the staff correspondents of the Cincin.
nati Commercial, gives in his book with the
above title "a cdmparat i've view of crime
against the person in several parts of the
United States.r The book is not written in a
sectional or party spirit, the declared intent
of the writer being to "try to arouse the gov.
erning elements In the south to proper ap-
probation of the evil that affects society, to
the end that there may be increased respect
for human life and less consideration shown
man-slayers in the courts" Mr. Rcdfeld's
investigations lead him to the conclusion that
"the number Of homicides in the southern
states is proportionately greater than in any
country ON earth the population Of which is
rat cd MS civilized" and that " the number of
homicidcs in the southern states since the war
reaches the enormous aggregate of at least
10000" There were in tho states Of Texas
Kentucky and South Carolina IN tho year
1878 734 homicdes. During the same time
522 persons were seriously wounded by shots
and stabs. Estimating that 10 per cent. of
the severely and dangerously wounded died
of their wounds, IL swels the nLmber OF
homicides in tho three statcs in one year, to
an aggregate of Sl2. In Texas during the
year 1878 there were more homicides
than IN ten northern ana western
states with an aggregate population of
nearly, If not quite, 1900 900. In
Kentucky that year there were moro hom
icides than in eight northern and western
states with a population of nearly 100000.
In South Carolina there were more homicides
than in the eight states Of Maine. New Hamp.
| shire Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island,
Connecticut, Michigan and Minnesota, with
an aggregate population of about 6000,000.
Mr.. Redfield explains that Texas, Kentucky
and South Carolina are selected us the basis of
his estimates because in each of these states
there Is published one newspaper covering
local affairs in the entire state with n degree
of thOroughness that enables mt lonst an
approximate collection of the homicidcs hap
pening in these states for a given period"
These newspapers are the Galveston Ners,
the Louisville Courier. Journal aud the Nc1rs
and Courier. The population of tho three
states is about half million less than that
OF the Now England states" At the same
rate Of slaughter there would be in New
England over 900 homicides annually,
whereas there has not been SO many in
that section In eighteen years. On the
basis Of population, thanksgiving is twelve
times more frequent In South Carolina
than in Massachusetts,; in Kentucky it is six
times more frequent than in Michigan, aud in
Texas from twelve to fifteen times more fre-
quent than in Minnesota In the year 1873
there were iu South Carolina zone hundred
and sighty-threo personal difficulties, street
| fights, atlrays and assasinatious in which
deadly weapons were used"

LIGHTIN THE SOUTH.

Tennessee to Elect n Republican Governor.
The Louisville COutierJownars Nashville
correspondent is very much disgusted with
the political situation in Tennessee. In re.
gard to tho federal election he has no fears.
Tildcn had 1873, lGG votes, to s0,5G6 for Hayes,
democratic majority Of $4,000. "But when,"
he says, I'VE come to consider the vote to be
cast on the same day in this state as between
Hawkins. the republican nominee for gov.
ernor, and Wright, the democratic nominee for
governor, and Wilson, the alleged democrat,
nominated by small boiling faction of the
democratic party Oh the repudiation platform,
then as to plurality as between the democrats
and republicans, the republican minority will
be swollen to such pletloric proportions by
accessions from all ranks who favor an honest
payment of tile state debt that IL will astonish
the outside politician by showing itself clearly
and far In the lead, aud Mr. Hawkins will
be Tenncssees next governor. Wilson, the
rcpudiator-or, at least, tho nominee of the
reputation facion, falsely called the 'low-tax
party'-is making gigantic strides toward
the capture OF majority of the dem.
ocratic party. He will certainly carry
large majority Of the democracy of
eastern and western Tennessee. with
good showing for the lead even Ia middle
Tennessee Wright will get the strictly parH-
sans OF tho democratic party all over the state
who have not been deeply impregnatcd with
the heretical idea of reputation.
Wilson will get all the party vote not tram.
mcled by party slackles who do believe this
heresy, while Hawkins will get the republican
vote Of say, $4,000 solid and TO this solid re.
publican vote may be added very respect
able clement In size at least, from the in.
dependent democrats, the business demo.
Gratis of sufficient perspicuiiy to SEQ the
horribly depressing effect the fact of ro.
pudiation by the state would exercise on
the business interests of the state, aud indi.
viduals say then that Hawkins would accrctc
ten per cent. on the republican vote or, $4,000;
and Wright aud Wilson nearly equally divided,
the remainder thereof would staud then 49, 900
each and leave Hawkins n clear plurality of
$4,000, and this is literally aud truly very
nearly the exact figures as they will stand out
IN lettors Of fire, glaring luridly and blindingly
into the sore and unprotected eyes oil the con-
ncosmittcn democracy on tue day after
the election. Aud they deserve IL. The cas-.
tigation they will thus receive will be Que OF
the just deserts hof such hecdlcss reck Iessncss
as they have been guilty of for years"
Other advices from Tennessee hold out
strong hopes of q republican legislature, aud
a consequent republican United States senator.
The democratic factions have each candidate
for the legislature, aud tho chances are good
IN many counties to run republican In be.
tween them.
