With this issue of the HERALD we

Christmas.

This joyous season has come
again. To all Christian people il
is the happiest of the year. Old
and young regard it as the time for
merry-making and festivities. Cor
roding care and trouble are laid
aside for the time, and mirth and
merriment take their place. To
the children especially is this a
happy season. For many weeks
they have looked eagerly forward to
Christmas, and their minds have
been filed with visions OF Santa
Claus. IF there were no other way
for older people to enjoy themselves
it would fully repay them to wit.
ness the happiness of the little
ones. Hard must be the heart that
would begrudge or withhold from
them the means of making them
happy. May Santa Claus visit
them all and leave for every
one Of them all the toys and good
things they want. And to all our
readers We wish 4 MERRY CHRIST
MAS.

The legislature

This body has made great haste
to get through by the Christmas
holidays, In order to accomplish
this it has postponed some impor.
tant matters to the next session,
and many bills have been left on
the calendars unfinished. During
the past week much work has been
done.
In the House the bill to impose
a State license Of 5000 son bar
rooms, in addition to the license al,
ready required, created consider
able discussion. It was argued by
those favoring the bill that it would
accomplish two purposes lst, to
diminish the number of bar-rooms. :;
End, to bring an additional revenue
of about S150,000 into the State
Treasury. Those opposing it con-
tended that it was not fair that a
revenue should be taken from the
Counties in this way-that what
ever license, or tax, uarkeepers paid
should be paid into the Municipal
or the County treasures; that it
would not diminish the number of
bar, rooms, but would cause liquor
sellers to adulterate their liquors SO
as to reimburse themselves for the
heavy license they would have to
pay. After much speaking the bill
was postponed to next session.
The next day the motion to post
pone was reconsidered, and the bill
was passed to it's third reading,
with an amendment fixing the State
license at 800, and providing that
this 800 should be paid to the
County Treasurers for County pur-
poses.
A bill to allow divorces for adul-
sery was defeated.
The bill to encourage immigra-
ton passed it's second reading in
the House the 18th, and will no
doubt become a law. It was SO
amended as to exempt for three
years capital invested in real estate
by immigrants to the extent Of ST.
500 from all taxes.
The bill to provide for two boxes
at general elections has been con-
tinued to next session.

EnGian Affairs, sc.

We have received from Hon. Carl
Schurz, Secretary of the Interior,
bis annual report for ,'e year end
ing November l, 1880. Speaking
Of the Indian policy he says, that
prior to his administration of the
Office it was thought best to mass
the Indians together on reserva-
tons. He kept up this policy for a
while, but found it a mistake; that
it was better to respect their home
attachments, and that contact with
the civilization around them would
be q benefit.
The chief employment of the In.
dians is agriculture. The uncivil-
lied tribes during the year have
cultivated 16S,34O;; acres of land,
and have raised 406.S12 bushels of
wheat, besides corn, oats, barley,
hay, &C., in proportion. The civil
lied tribes in the Indian terrific ry
have cultivated this year 314,39S
acres; have raised over 100000
bushels of corn, over 100000 bush =
els OF wheat, &C., &c. Since 1876
the agricultural productions of the
Indians have almost doubled. The
Secretary says that the productions
will be still further increased if the
Indians are assured that they will
be secure in the possession of their
lands.
Many Indians find employm ent
as freight-carriors. During the
past year they had 1900 wagons
engaged in hauling freight.
The appropriations made by he
government for educating Indians
has proved satisfactory. Indian
youths are being educated at Hamp-
ton, Va, Carlisle, Penn: and Forest
Grove, Oregon, with satisfactory
results.
The whole Indian population is
about 100000.

1 K. Mcclure, Editor Of the
Philadelphia IIntss, is travelling
through the South in order 10 gain
reliable information concerning the
condition Of affairs down here. The
following extract from q letter writ
ten to his paper from Columbia
s!:nwe that he has reached the true
inwardness of the situation
None know better than the masses
OF the colored voters Of South CarnIlua
that their attempt at self rule has been
& terrible failure, and they are now
,?i<t!u>ttul of all colored leaders, while
t::'E have nothing but curses for the
desperate white adventures who I'M
poverished both races while assuming
to elevate and benefit the negro It
was this feeling that made the election
Of Hampton possible in 1876, and the
sceptre once wrested from such race
will not soon be reeained. They feel
little hope Of aiding themselves by e
negro restoration. They saw the State
robbed of lands for negro homes, aud
the property stolen by those who
claimed to be the friend of the negro
They saw taxes wrung from property
to educate the negro, and large por-
tion stolen outright and the schools
made merely uockery of education.
Now they see seventy.6ve thousand
colore6 children in free schools, and
nearly twelve hundred colored teachers
instructiag them under the beneiceuce
Of the State. They see, also, an
amendment of the Constitution adop
ted making fixed and irrevocable ap-
preparations for free and equal educa-
tion, and the Governor Of the State
| declaring for still greater increase il
the facilities for iustructing both
whites aud blacks. They see business
and confidence revive; they have
more labor and better pay; they are
steadily increasing their friendly rela-
tions with tie whites by leases Of
lands, and nlauy Of them are becoming
small proprietocs since they have
ceased to neglect Industry to follow
the commands Of selfish leaders, a0d a
large proportion Of the more thrifty
class have openly taken their political
stand with the whites while thousands
OF others, especially in minority couu-
ties, refuse to take any part in politics.
They have majority of frou twenty
to thirty thousand il the State on a
strictly color line division. but there
will never be another solid negro vote
cast in this State. Superior iutclll-
gence and will Hust rule here as in all
other places in the world, aud both
whites and bucks understand it.
There will bs uejusti6able methods
here to repress such negro counties as
Beaufort aud Charleston, and they
will need the correcting hand Of JUS
tice; but until all the laws of huuian
nature aud of interest shall be reversed,
the white snao uill rule the inferior
race, and he will do it better iu the
South at this time than the negrs can
rule himself. This is not the senti-
mental view of the race issue in the
South, but it is the truth.

DUH Times.

The merchants are all complain
ing Of dull times; they say they
have never seen trade so dull at
this season Of the year. Some say
they had a better trade during the
proverbially dull summer months
than they are having now. When
asked for an explanation of the dull
times the only reason they can give
is, that nearly all men with money
have turned misers and are hoard
ing their money instead Of spending
ii. And this they attribute to the
fact that cotton has been paid for
mostly in gold, and that the far
mers are very 10th to part with the
precious metal. The small amount
of trading cannot be attributed to
the scarcity Of money; for there is
undoubtedly more money in the
County now than there was at this
time last year, when trade was
brisk. Cotton. has averaged bet
ter price, and the sales are in ex-
cess of last year at this date by
twelve hundred bales.
It may be, while there is more
money among the people, and while
the bank deposits are larger than
ever before, that the money is chief
" in the hands Of the wealthier
portion Of the community, and that
the poor man is no better off than
usual, if as well. The large plant
ers have been able to make money ;
but what about that large class OF
small farmers who have been com,
pelled to give liens during the sum-
mer? To this class the term "busi-
ness prosperity" has no meaning.
Business has been prosperous with
those who had capital and were in.
dependent; but to the dependent
man no times are prosperous-in-
deed their unfortunate and depen-
dent condition contributes to the
prosperity of others.
Whatever the cause there is no
doubt of the fact that money is very
tight and trade is alarmingly dull.
We hope that matters will improve
before the business season closes.

The special agents sent to South
Carolina from Washington to in
vestigate the census have re-enume-
rated several Townships: The re-
enemurations were made in Town
ships that showed a very large in.
crease over the census Of 1870, and
these recommendations were to be
taken as Il test OF the accuracy of
the census of 1880. One Township
in Barnwell County by the enume-
ration in June last showed a popu-
lation Of 1863, and by the re emu.
meratlon 2,T22; one in Chester
field, first enumeration 1850, Sec
crd 2,070; one in Lexington, first
enumeration 2,A26, second 2,518.
These tests have proved the cor
recsness Of cur census returns. The
great apparent discrepancy between
the census Of 1870 and 1880 is due
to the imperfect and incompetent
manner in which the census of 1870
was taken.
