President Garfield was a self.
made man. The family was poor.
The father died when his son James
IA. was only two years old. By
reading and studying at odd times
,he got bis earlier education. By
working as carpenter and as g
idriver on q canal, he was enabled
to go to College, and his meagre
means were aided by his acting as
ljanitor to the college building while
"a student at Williams College, Mas
sachusetts, where he graduated
lat the age Of twenty-five he became
president of a Female College il
shis own State of Ohio. At twenty
aeight he became State Senator
when the war broke out he wen
sinto service as a Colonel, and after
wards rose to be a Major General
lin 1863 he resigned his position in
! the army to accept that OF Con
sgressman and up to 1880 he was
reelected for every succeeding
term. In 1880 be was elected Uni
Z ted States Senator but before he
took his seat he was nominated anc
detected President.
The Presidents family consists
sof his mother, his wife and five
children, a girl and four boys.

The NeuS and Courier thinks il

Ito announce to the Army, as Secre

discharge of his official duties"
Why so? Doesn't Arthur by be
coming President become Com

formal announcement may be ''nov

to see anything approaching to the

r. R. PRospEcTs.-We have just
received letter from one of the most
competent and successful Railroad
magnates in this State relative to the
proposed road FROM Newberry via
,Blackville to Allendale. The line will
be about IS miles long, and can be
CONSTRUCTED for 100000. No other
enterprise proposed within the last
half century would do so much to-
develop our resources and to bring us
into closer communication with the;
busy world that is leaving US behind
lit iu its rapid march to prosperity
Those who have studied the proposed;
lime and its advantages assure US that
lit will be among the most profitable 10;

for the survey. Will our moneyed;
men contribute it? Engineers are;
ready to begin work 50 soon as their

are willing to help ourselves.

of death was secondary hemorrhage

President Garfield.

.. The death OF the HfeSlQenG tnet
night of the 18th was not unex
pected. Notwithstanding all that
was said shout mis- Improvement by
the doctors, especially by Doctor
Bliss, the public mind has settled!
for several weeks into the convic
ton that the President must die
President Garfield has died at al
favorable time for his fame. His
suferings and his heroic bearing
under them turned the hearts OF
the people towards him in sympa
thy and afectionate admiration.
In these feelings every section OF
the country shared equally. From
the End day Of July to the 18th day
OF September this wounded, dying
man was the bond of union that
drew together all the people in
close friendship and fraternal re-
gard. The fraternal feelings thus
engendered will not all pass away
with the occasion that called them
forth. Partisans and bigots, poll
ticians and stalwarts may wish to
blot this out and again stir up sec
tional hate and prejudice, upon
which they have so long lived anc
fattened, and which furnish thei,
only stock in trade; but they vii!
fail. The honest, patriotic feelings
of the South have reached the pop
ular heart at the North and he
who attempts hereafter to ride into
political power on the old hobby
that has served so long and 81
faithfully will be known as a dema
gogue and will meet with no en-
couragement. The wounding, the
suferings and the death Of the
President have bridged over year!
of sectional feeling; and better
than that, have made the diferent
sections to know each other. Thi!
is q consolation in the great nation
al calamity.
AS to the dead President, his his
tory need not here be repeated
We were not an admirer of Gen
Garfield. His were the bitteres
denunciations ever uttered on tht
floor of Congress against the South
ern people; uttered long after th'
war was over, and when every goof
man should have been anxious tx
heal the passions Of strife and re
unite the people. He it was who
played the chief part among tht
visiting statesmen" to Louisiana
in 1876, and who, as the mos
avowed partisan, took his seat OF
the Electoral Commission which
gave Tilden's seat to Hayes. The
Oaks Ames swindle and the De
Golyer Paving scandal are too fresf
to need repetition. Gen. Garfeld's
connection with these affairs wa:
exceedingly discreditable to him
The shooting of President Garfield
did not make him different man
his death does not change the facts
of history. He was too new in the
Presidential Chair to give much in
dication Of what kind of ruler he
would have been. He inaugurate(
no policy; his whole time was oc
cupied in his contest with Conkling
aud his followers.
In common with the whole cour
Try we are sorry for the Presidents
death. We believe that had he
lived he would have made gooc
President and g. President of the
whole country. He was undoubt
edly a far superior man to his sue
cessor.
President Garfield lacked just
two months of being fifty years Ole
