ception and fanatcism. Her husband had
set himself up as religious prophet, and he
published a magazine called the Prophets
Warming. He claimed to be modern Elijah,
and he succeeded in bamboozling some fools
in the North, his poor wife among them. lie
made his wife believe she would give birth to
holy child if she tasted a certain number OF
weeks. She had a son who was a prophet also.
Between father and son the woman died. The
Chicago Inter- Ocean of the 22nd says: "This
son looked forward to his mothers death as
one of the possibilities of the scheme, and the
world is treated to the astonishing spectacle
of demented woman starving herself at the
nstigation Of and under the encouragement
of her son, and with the connivance of her
husband. The woman died. The question
of what shall be done with such men now de-
mands an answer" The North looks down
with painful commisseration upon ''the poor
South" and yet the self-same cOmplacent
North seems to be the chosen home of hum
buggery, knavery, delusion, superstition, fa-
naticism and general badness.

Court on the 24th ultimo is of interest to the
legal fraternity: 'It is ordered that Rule IN
be amended by adding thereto the following
words: ''But this court will not consider any
fact which does not appear in the Case as
prepared for argument in this Court =; and,
therefore, it is altogether useless for counsel to
embody in their arguments or in the state
ment of facts preceding the points and author
tiles required by this rule any fact which does
not appear in the Case as agreed upon or
settled. Nor will any fact stated in the ex-
ceptions or grounds of appeal which does not
appear in the Case be considered by the
Court. If counsel desire to add any facts to
those stated in the Case they must either
obtain the written consent of opposing coun-
sci to the insertion of such additional facts, or
they must, upon due notice, move this Court,
before the argument commences, to recOmmit
the Case to the Circuit Court for amend
ment.''
- Says the Lexington Dispatch on the sub
ject of forming new county from portions
of Fairfield, Newberry and Lexington: 1--WE
hear that many signatures to Il petition to cut
off the Fork for the formation of a new
county, with portions of Newberry and Fair
field were placed thereon through Il mistaken
idea that taxation would be reduced by such a
result. From what we can hear we are led
to believe that the prime movers in the matter
are ofiice-seekers who would have no chance of
filling any position as long as their election
is subject to the approval of the voters of the
county as it now stands ,sand it would seem to
us to be the part of wisdom with those whose
signatures have been given under false i'm
preston to their names have stricken off at
once. Counter petitions are now being circula-
ted and are receiving the signatures of the most
substantial citizens of the Fork. This is as
it should be We cannot think that the most
prominent men of that section would wish to
see the county split up when no advantage is
to be obtained thereby. Petitions against the
separation are also in circulation here, and
will be in the other parts of the county in a
few days. Outside of the Fork the county
is unanimously against the split, and we look
to see the move all utter failure.

SAD AFELICrlON.

1t is always painful duty to have to record
the death of any one in our community, but
the sudden DEATH on Thursday afternoon last,
of Mrs SallieJ. Kuykendal, wife of DR.. John
C. Kuykendal, is surroundedby circumstances
which intensity it's sadness-she having been
taken away from two idolized children at that
age when they most feel mothers presence
and need her watchful care, and a sorrowing
husband upon whom the sudden dispensation
falls with crushing effect.
Mrs. Kuykendal was aged 35 years. She
was a modest, retiring, gentle woman, de-
voted wife and mother and charitable almost
to fault, her sympathy ever went out with
the distressed and afflicted. An humble Chris
tian, she was earnestly religious; a Jealous
member of the Episcopal Church, to the tenets
of which she was strongly attached. Her re-
mains were followed to their last resting place
on Friday afternoon, by large concourse of
sympathizing friends, who assembled at the
Church of the Good Shepherd, to witness, as
the last sad rites, the beautiful and impressive
burial service of her church, conducted by the
Rev. JOS Blount Cheshire, of Charlotte. The
afflicted husband and children have the warm
est sympathy of every one in this community
in their deep sorrow.

- A good many farmers in Rowan and ad-

THE EXTRA SESSION.

Wuhpla Nrblslcl'J
We are glad to see that the Governor will
call al extra session Of the Legislature for
redistricting the State. With this in view,
we hope such of our members as have the
time and sort of talent necessary will give the
matter their attention before they come herel
so that there will be some well devised and
iudicious outline of the work to be done framed
by intelligent and informed minds in different
sections of the State. Men who have alike
studied a question, if they are alike desirOus of
reaching the best solution thereof, are always
more likely to understand each other and to
come to some good agreement on what is judi
cious and safe 1t would be highly proper,
too, for the State Executive Committee to
gather and arrange such information in the
premises to which resort might be had.
1Charleston News and CourlerJ
Governor Hagood has convened the State
Legislature in extra session. the day fixed for
the assembling being Tuesday, June 81. The
time is we'll chosen, and will give the people
an opportunity to know and understand what
shall be done before they shall enter upon the
work of the political campaign.
The object of the special session is to divide
the State into seven Congressional districts,
instead of five, 50 as to provide for the two
additional members of Congress to which the
State is now entitled. Unless this were done
two Congressman would have to be elected at
large, by the vote of the whole State, and
there is general agreement OF opinion that
this would have been dangerous, as well as
unfair. The smaller the districts the nearer
are the Congressman to their constituents,
and the better able are they to become familiar
with their wants and wishes. 1t is, moreover,
for the interest of the State to strengthen
the Democratic party. This was demanded
by the conduct of the Government in the
political trials in Charleston. The State must
be Democratic, or pass into the hands of the
Independents, who are only Republicans ''writ
large" The choice is between the rule of the
white man and the rule of the negro. If
there was ever any middle ground, it was
washed away by the Juggling and lawlessness
in the United States Court. 1t is also, the
sentiment of The State that unqualified sup
port must now he given to the National Demo-
cratic party. There will be no lukewarmness
in the Congressional elections. The National
Democracy and the South Carolina Democracy
are shoulder to shoulder again, and will re-
main So The large gains on which the Re-
State.
The Legislature, once assembled, can trans
act any business that may be thought neces-
sary, but it is the general desire that the
Legislature shall confine itself, as closely as
possible to the work for which it is convened,
and this, we trust, will be the determination
of the members. We do not wish to see un-
due haste in redistricting the State, on which
so much depends, but the members can pre-
pare themselves, in advance, for the reappor-
tionment and have the material ready for the
committees to consider. This will save time,
and facilitate wise conclusion.

Some More :TaIk and Opinions Upon
the subject.
HARTYILLE. June 2. 1882.

HARTvILLE, June 2, 1882.
Editor Cheyenne Leader:
1 see that the good people of Chey-
enne are agitating the building OF
smelling works in that place. Now
MI. Editor, l cannot see how the cree
tion Of such works IS going to help this
section Of country, or benefit the PEG
pie Of Cheyenne very much. There are
immense deposits of ore here, and every
days development goes to show this as
sertion to be a fact. Work on the Sun
Rise mine for the last ten days has
shown a body of ore, at least 10000
tons by actual measurement, and the
end is not yet.
The Village Belle has an immense
body OF ore that shows even greater
strength than the Sun Rise, besides the
New York, Lone Jack, Empire, Key
stone, Hidden Treasure, Phil. Sheridan
and several others, which have ell suffl-
Gent ore to run a smelter several
months. Then twenty miles north of
this place, at Musk Rat Canon, there
are at least 100, 900 tons of ore in sight.
Now the greatest expense to get this
ore TO market is between here and
Cheyenne. The cost is 800 per ton. 1t
will cost much more in winter. 1t
would be almost impossible to get
teams to haul all this ore to Cheyenne
to keep your smelter running for the
winter. Furthermore the ore will have
to be selected. 1t would not pay to
ship ore under 30 per cent, when ore
of a lower grade can be reduced here
with large profit.
Now sir, you cannot build up a great
country by concentrating your industry
in one place, and 1 can prove to the
satisfaction Of the people of Cheyenne
that works here will be of far more
benefit to Cheyenne than II erected in
that place.
The erection of such works here
would support a population of at least
1000 people besides open up a large
farming country, the very foundation
which the wealth OF all countries /!
founded.
Now all these people have to draw
their supplies from Cheyenne, and il
will ensure the early completion of the
proposed railroad from your city to thit
place, on the northwest course to the
Big Horn; besides other natural ad-
vantages, such as timber, coal, etc.
There is within a radius Of ten mile!
of this place sufficient timber to rur
works for years.
Now Mr.. Editor, in conclusion, ]
must say we have got worlds of wealth
in this country, and all we want is &
small amount Of capital to help develope
our resources. H. D. ScoTT.

PAY THE PRINTER.

When the cold storm howls round The door
And you by the light OF taper
Sit costly by the evening fire,
Enjoying the last paper,
lust think OF him whose work thus helps
To wear away the winter.
And put this query 70 yourself
Have I paid the printer
From east and west, from north and south
From lands beyond the water,
lie weekly brings you lots Of news,
From every noo and quarter;
No slave on earth tolls more than he.
Through summers heat and winter:
How can you for a moment, then,
Neglect to pay the printer
Your other bills you promptly pay
Wherever you do 60, sir:
The butcher for his meat Is paid.
For sundries Is the grocer;
The tailor and the shoemaker.
The halter aud the winter,
All get their pay; then why neglect
To settle with the printer?
