because the girls prefer to work in the
mill where the work is light and where
they get good pay, instead Of hocing
cotton and corn in the hot sun. The
average pay Of the operatives is about
Si5 to $50 per month. 1T is all Josh,"
says the writer, about working under an
overseer and for rich capitalists Their
work is light and they work fewer hours
than the farm laborcrs do. We have
several families from Abbeyile who
moved off Of rented land where they
tried to make cotton. Now they cannot
be induced to 20 back" The writer
says that he believes that no laborcr, in
the United States have as little 10 live Oh
Or for As the poor renters Of the South
trying to make living raising cotton.
The operatives at Piedmont are all
South Carolinians and Gcorpians, and
there are no Yankee oversccrs in the
mill. The operatives have all been
educated in the South. The writer then
refers to the wonderful development Of
Piedmont and lis surroundings and the
increase in the value Of lands in that
vicinity since the mill was built lie
dwclls especially upon the Importance Of

The Fish Question.
kEOwEE S. G., July Q, 1882.

kEowEE $. g., July .. 1852.
Editor indcrson MirNiyrnrr:
Having learned recently that you are
advocating the mairtainance of tho
rights Of the people to free passage of
fish up the Savannah River and its trib-
ufaries, l beg the privilege of writing
you few words Of encouragement in SO
good work l have felt deep ntcrcs,
in the subject. and have been trying for
several years to get up such feeling
among the people US would stimulate u
demand for their rights in the premises.
The first news, paper article written on
the subject, that am aware OF, was
written by Mr.. Sndlcr, Of Hart Co, Ga,
several years ngo. ut my suggestion, and
published in the Hurtwell ,Sun.
While there is some reason in Jn'ohiJi-
ton, when applied to articles that are
injurious to individuals, and detrimental
to the public at large, it is difficult to
conceive why rather dense population,
covering territory of five thousand
square miles, should be prohibited from
the enjoyment of fish in the waters Of
their territory, especially where fiah are
natural to those waters; and if not pre-.
vented by distractions, would be present
in sufficient numbers to furnish large
part Of that population, during consid.
cradle portion of tho year, with most
delicious and hcalthful article Of food.
Now, why should n manufacturing
interest Se protected pecuninrily, or
allowed to exist at all, Mt so great a sac
rifice to go large number of people?
"Where there is will there is way"
and if the people unite in demanding
the rights and privileges given their
country first by the handi-work of the
Creator, they will be successful, even to
the raising Of the foundation rocks Of tho
Augusta dam.

The fire certainly produced more cas-.
uaities than any which has ever occurred
here. Thomas Lipscomb, Of the Hook

truck was on its way TO the fire. and the
wheels passed over him, bruising and
cutting his shoulder and legs. He was
carried to house near by. The tiller
OF the truck struck J. +. Richardson in
the face and cut 4 severe CASH in his
eyebrow.
The appalling disaster cast a gloom
over the community and no one could
talk or think of anything else. Anxious
inquiries were made on every hand as to
the condition Of the victims aud deep
sorrow is expressed everywhere.

GOV. BUTLER AND THE PRESIDENCY.

The .Nrws and Courier exhibits some
mcasincss that Governor Benz +. But
Ter, Of Massachusetts, may be tho posi-
bic Democratic nominee for President
next year. We must confess that we do
not share in this uneasEcss. II is q
well known fact TO every politician and
to every intelligent citizen that no Dem
ocrat can be elected President next year
unless he carries ct least half of the
Southern States. Even if the Northern
States should vote next year as they did
last, half Of the Southern vote would
still be necessary, and there is every rca.
son to suppose that we will lose Pcnnsyl-
vania, Massachusetts, and some of the
Western States which we carried last
year so that every Democrat will re-
cognize the fact that it is necessary to
retain the South iii the Democratic col.
umn. Governor Buffers nomination by
the Democrats would, we believe, drive
the whole South into the Republican
party if all acceptable man should be
offered by them for the Presidency; and
if men or principles were presented by
the Republicans which the South could
not vote for, Buffers nomination would
at least paralyze the Southern Democracy
to such an extent nat the national elec.
ton would be larg iy neglected by our
people. The Sou is Democratic
thoroughly Democratic; but i. !. sc
from principle ard from interest, It ia
not from bliad craftsmanship, and when.
ever men or issues are attempted to be
forced upon the party which our ideas Of
moral right or self.respect forbid us as
sisting in elevating, it will be found that
while true to the principles of tho party
the South will not be an ally Of the party
which seeks to preserve the name but moi
the integrity of that name The line Of
departure would have to be marked
plainly and beyond question, but wher
30 marked the South would be fount
seeking other more congenial and honor
able alliances. For our part, we woulc
stand great deal, but the line of depart
ure would have to be marked somewhere
and we know Of no better place to draw
it than Mt the nomination Of Is. F. But
Ter. If the Democrats should nominal,
him they would not only get badly
defeated, but what il more, they woult
richly deserve the most signal defeat
Fortunately there is no probability o
any such criminal blunder on the par
of the Democrats next year.

ing made charge against the morals,
religion and virtue of factory hands,
Col. H. p. Hammett sent a communi.
cation to the Medium, in which he ably
defends this class. The Medium only
publishes all extract from the letter, Col.
Hammett having subsequently requested
the Medium not to publish the communi.
cation in full. In this extract Col,
Hammett refers to the fact that there
are about 400 inhabitants in Piedmont,
600 of whom work in the mill. He
says: "In point If morals, religious in.
HueE :es, the virtue of the females and
moral restraint and influences it Is not

then refers to the educational and religi.
GUS advantages of the place, mentioning
the Sunday School, the circulating libra
ry, a.temperance organization with $50
members and Young Mems Christian
Association of so members. In addition
to this is day school, conducted by a
competent teacher which is open all the
year round and has an attendance of 100
scholars. The company contributes $3.50

The writer adverts to the great rarity
of drunkenness in Piedmont and the
general disposition of the people TO
abhor intemperance. It Is not tolerated.

sessed of no equities, and are not even
entitled to sympathy for their losses. 1t
is deliberate effort to speculate on the
generosity of the South, to accomplish
which they begin by raising large cor
ruption fund. The whole scheme is
piece Of folly. The Southern States
cannot pay these debts if they wanted 10
do so, and they would not do so if they
could. Even more, they ought not to
pay these holders by any principle Of
law or ethics, either political or moral.
