THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH.

The Rev. R. P. johnson, rector of the Epis-
copal Church, returned last Saturday after
noon from a short visit to Augusta, Ga. He
is somewhat improved in health but though
yet feeble, he conducted morning service in
his church last Sunday, preaching an instruct
i've and impressive sermon suited to the grand
event which Easter Sunday commentaries.
According to beautiful and time-honored GUS
tom, the church was handsomely decorated
with evergreen and bright flowers, typical of
the season of joy, and serving to emphasize the
gladstone thought that "He is risen.''

ROLLA RYAN.

This inimitable character actor, supported
by Prof. Ryan and Mr.. Reynolds, gave an ell

ator, is coextensive with the country, and on
this occasion he fully sustained his reputation.

any character actor on the boards. -..

- 4 singular marriage took place in the
Greenville Jail OH Wednesday of last week.
One of the negro convicts under sentence of
death for burning the opera house, had for
some time begged permission from the Sheriff
to marry the woman he loved, which woman
had also been convicted of larceny, and was
then in jail waiting for transportation to the
penitentiary to serve a term of two years.
The jail authorities finally granted the request
of the dusky lovers, and the marriage cere-
mony was performed to the apparent delight
of both. They seemed oblivious of the fact
that death was in little while to claim the
new-made husband, and the penitentiary the
bride of an hour.
"A Spartanburg dispatch of last Friday to

dollars of the bonds issued by the counties Of
Spartanburg and Laurens were taken by a

CATION composed of Hon. F. A. Connor, Col.
A. M. Aiken and Capt w. Z. McGhee appeared
before the board in behalf of Cokesbury, asking
that the road be run by their town, and offer

have been made to commence work also in

Taxing Mortgages.

1t is probable that efforts will be made in
the Legislature for the passage of law tax
ing mortgages. We have on many occasions
expressed our decided opposition to such a
law, for the reason that no matter how
stringent its provisions may be, the borrower
and not the lender will be obliged to pay the
tax, thereby entailing double tax upon him,
Ex-Mayor Latrobe, at the banquet given to
him in Baltimore, upon the occasion ofhis re
firing from the mayoralty, expressed himself
as follows upon the subject:

needy borrowers must pay, at least to the ex,

most heavily upon the building associations,
which have over $4400,000 invested in mort
cages representing the hard earnings of our Ia
boring classes, and by which they are aided in
becoming owners of homes of their own
The tax on mortgages is double tax, paid as
it always is by the mortgagor, since the

Veto of the Chinese Bill

The President on the 4th, sent in his veto Of
the Chinese Bill. The ground upon which tt ie
objection to it is based, is the suspension of
immigration for twenty years, which is colt
strued to transcend the reasonable limit stil j.
ulated for in the modified Burlngame treaty.
While it is not possible, says the New York
Times, ito fix the precise point at which the
prohibitory limit becomes unreasonable, it.
may be assumed that if twenty years can be so,
described, ten years may be regarded as COM.
ing within the reasonable" category. The.
probable effect of the veto will, therefore, be.
an amendment to the bill SO as to provide for
suspension of Chinese immigration for ten in
stead of twenty years. While the President.
will deserve due credit for his strict adhesion
to the letter Of the treaty, even in the face of
large majorities in both houses of Congress- it
is nonsense to talk of grave political cons. =
quences attending the act, one way or the oil l.
er. The common sense of the country. the
Pacific States not excepted, will recognize n
the veto simply conscientious regard for a
national compact, susceptible indeed of less
rigid Interpretation, but still presenting a very
proper occasion for exhibiting a scrupulous re-
spect for niceties of construction"
The Democratic support of the bill was
more for buncombe than anything else. They
care neither for principles or treaty sanctions.
nor the traditions of the country. They hope
to gain few votes on the Pacific slope, and.
to do SO would violate the plain understand
ing of treaty stipulations. They NAV succeed
in winning few floating votes of the sand
lot class but the intelligent people of the coun-
try, who have no apprehension of China emp
'ying her 4oo,o0O,0Oo people into the United
States, will sustain the President in the high /
purpose to preserve the faith OF the govern 4
nent in its treaty relations with the Chinese 1
Empire.

take this water from the spring during said

vicinity, who have been accustomed to use it
for household purposes. The medical proper

Hon. L. L. Lewis, who was recently
elected one of the Supreme Judges of
Virginia, has requested the President to
withdraw his nomination for United States
District Attorney for the Eastern District
of Virginia. His term as Judge does not
commence until the LIST of January next,
and his commission as United States Dis
trict Attorney having recently expired. the
President nominated him to the Senate for
re-appointment. The nomination had been
before the judiciary Committee of the
Senate for several weeks, the delay in re-
porting it for confirmation arising from
some objection ON the part of the Chair
man of that Committee, Senator Edmunds.
because Mr.. Lewis had been engaged in
fighting duel. Learning this fact, Mr..
Lewis determined to relieve the Senator.
and all others who had scruples on the SUBJ
ject, from embarrassment by asking that his
name be withdrawn. Upon application in
person TO the President, his request was
granted. There would have been no doubt
about the confirmation, had the case been re-
ported to the Senate but Mr.. Lewis did not
chose to allow his name to be suspended
in the committee for such cause, without
giving emphatic expression to what be
thought about it. He lisa gentleman ofvery
high haracter-honest, brave and capable.
and the Department of Justice has lost the
service of an efficient and conscientious off,
GER in his refusal to accept the rendered DO
'ition OF United States District Attorney.
Itis stated that Capt. John S. Wise can
nave the appointment to succeed him, if he
will accept it. We doubt, however, whether
he will DO so, as his practice, we learn,
which commands all of his time, is more
lucrative than the fees OF the District At
orney are.
