A College in the Piedmont.

P1cKENs, October 9.-Much interest
ia now manifested in this section about
new college enterprise. Some two or
three months ago the Rev. Hugh McLees
was present at large meeting of the
citizens of Pickens and Anderson Coun.
ties, at Carmel Church, which is nearly
on the line separating the two Counties.
At this gathering Mr.. McLees made an
address in which he strongly advocated
the establishment in this section of the
State Of college or school whose main
work would be to fit young men for spe.
cial yocations in life. The suggestion
took we'll, and steps are now being taken
which look toward such an institution.
Mrs. Eleanor Walker has given one hun.
dred and twenty acres of valuable land,
and Mr.. Berry Martin thirty acres, as q
location for the institution.
The name of the institution is to be
the Walker-McIlmoile College. The
lands above mentioned have been decided
to board of trustees, of which ex.Gov-
ernor B. F. Perry is president. The
College will be located on the line be.
tween Pickens and Anderson Counties,
about six miles from Pendleton. The
main object in the minds of the founders
is to fit young men for scientific farming
and the. practical trades of life. Still
other donations are expected. The
board is to meet at an early day to con-
slider the subject fully. Much praise is
due to the Rev. Hugh McLees for the
interest he is manifesting in the enter
prise. Thinking men are of the opinion
that such an enterprise can be made
success, and that it will add greatly to
the educational advantages of this Sec
ton of the State.

A Strange Story Of q Tree.

The Charlotte Observer is responsible
for the following story: The people
about Rock Hill are at present dividing
their attention between politics and a
mysterious plum tree that has recently
been discovered in their neighborhood
and which possesses qualities that mystify
and astonishes the people. The tree is an
ordinary plum tree, yet all day long there
hangs about it sort of moist or fog
and the grass under it is constantly wet
as with drops cf dew. The citizens call
it "the rain tree" Mr.. John Rudisill OF
this city yesterday returned from Rock
Hill. where he had been on business.
While there he heard the people talking
about this tree and having his curiosity
excited, be concluded to investigate the
matter. When he arrived al the tree the
sun was shining bright and hot and all
the earth was parched, yet from the tree
hung a mist that resembled a fog. MIR
Rudisill stood under the tree for about
five minutes, at the end of which time
water stood in drops ON his hat. He says
that the tree really drops water, but the
cause is something that the people can't
understand. This curious behavior OF
the tree was discovered about two weeks
AFRO and has been noticed daily ever since.
The people about Rock Hill want some
scientist to go there and unravel the mis-
tow, &c roocih1a

A CARD.

WE would like to call to the attention
of the people of Anderson County few
significant facts concerning the Drug
Store of HILL BROS, recently moved
from Broyles' Building or Main Street to
McCully's Corner on the Public Square
Smiths old stand.
In the first place these men endeavor, by
watching their business closely, to keep
alway. on hand such Drugs, Patent Med
icines. Lamps, and other articles in their
line, that parties wishing to come or send
to their Store for anything, not entirely
out of date, can always be accommodated.
For instance, the season for sowing wheat
is now upon US, and they have plenty of
Blue Stone for soaking it all and 30
when the bilious seasons come they have
always on hand a plenteous supply of
Liver Regulators, Pills, &C., and in the
chills aud fever time they double tneir
stock of Quinine and Chill Cures of all
kinds. And even so in the season when
"youne mems fancies lightly turn" &C.,
that is, along about Christmas, you can
always find there what you want in the
way of beautiful Celluloid Sets, hand.
some Dressing Cases, deliciously scented
md elegantly decorated Perfumed Bottles,
Ladies' Work Boxes, lovely Mirrors and
Fancy Articles of every description,
It is true they keep stock OF all these
things throughout the year, but they try
to regulate the quantities to suit the
season for which they are particularly
odontad. and while even in Spring and
Summer they keep their stock Of Lamps
full, YOU will find that they have now on
hand the largest and best selected stock
Of Library, Extension, Stand and Hand .. 4!
Lamps they have ever kept before-it is
really worth walk over there to see the
display. 49,, -,

British Capital DistrustsI Blaine's Hon.

Mr.. EDITOR: In the July number of
the London Quarterly Reviev there ap-
peared au article entitled Romance and
Reality Of American Railroads" With
the view of enlightening the minds Of
British capitalists, it proceeds to give
an exhaustive and startling account of
our Railway system, and exposes to view
record of auch infamy as would almost
seem impossible. British capital is
warned by the lessons Of the past, and
the gloomy outlook of the future, to be
cautious. The picture drawn of the
Enos' and Fisks, the Grants & Wards,
and their operations and failures is SIM
ply terrible, and enough to make even a
Wall Street broker blush, and the moral
deduced is we'll put, "when the man Of
business takes with him to his Office the
spirit and habits of the gambler his fate
is only question of time"
The author then proceeds to some re-
Aections on the decline of stocks, the
panic, the stagnant nature of the wheat
market and of trade generally. He pre-
diets that American wheat will never
again be so profitable a crop as it has
been in the past, and shows what are the
causes which will dethrone the "Great
West" from her supremacy. The enor-
nous increase of expectation of wheat
from "British India," and the immense
advantage which free trade with India
offers to English and Continental Manu-
facturers.
At the close of the article the author
deals in some reflections upon our polit-
ical condition and our pending Presiden-
tial election, and his words are as fol.
lows:
"Mr. Blaine is intensely anti-English,
but he is moderate in his views in COM
parison with Gen. Logan who might be
President one day, and who as President
of the Senate must exercise great infu-
ence. Should these candidates be elected,
zoe do not hesitate to sag that 1t arould be-
hoove English people to be trebly cautious
hoaD they inyested money in the United
States. They aoiN do aceA to soatch the
course of eueats very closely. "The author
then indulges in few dignifed remon-
strances against the ungenerous treat
ment of England by America, and goes
on to say: eve repeat our warning, that
| for some time to come the greatest cir
cumspection should be used in regard to
American investments. The facts which
we have given are alone sufficient to sug-
lgest the wisdom of this course at all
times, but it is especially incumbent upon
people of moderate means 10 follow it
now. For it is by no means 80 certain,
as some Americans profess to think, that
the worst of the storm is over, and that
the year 1884 nill come to an end with
out another startling collapse of a great
railroad, OF repetition perhaps on q
grander scale of the strange story of
Mr.. Ferdinand Ward"

The New German Colony.

Simeon Hyde, of Charleston, was in
the city Yesterday, and in behalf of cli-
ents signed and delivered contract of
sale of the Table Rock tract in Oconee
and Pickeus Counties to Mr.. Bussebaum,
of Germany. Mr.. Bussebaum is author.
lied to take immediate possession of the
unoccupied land of this tract and will
proceed to have it surveyed and divided
into convenient tracts without delay,
after which he will begin to bring immi-
grants of the best class from Germany
and settle them.
Mr.. Bussebaum is thorough business
man and his course has been such as to
win for him the confidence and respect
of all who have met him. There is
nothing of the visionary or the enthusl'
ast about him. He has settled down
here in quiet way and gone carefully
to work in the slow and sure German
manner to master all the details of his
undertaking. He is backed by ample
capital at home, and is the man to make
immigration success. He is delighted
with Greenville and this section Of
country, and will begin active operations
as soon as possible. He is confident
that he will succeed, and talks of his
plans in businesslike way that carries
conviction with it.
The importance of the movement of
which he is the pioneer cannot be over
estimated. 1t promises to open up to
intelligent cultivation a vast tract of land
now useless and to settle the mountain
country thickly with most valuable
population of thrifty, industrious and in
telligent Germans.
With Meinheer Bussebaum's German
colony above US, Monsieur Carpen's
colony of French vine growers alongside
and the fine Irish settlement just below,
we will only need few Russians to
make our section thoroughly cosmopoli-
tau.-Greenvile Neaus.

Blaine and Mulligan.

New YORK, Octoberil0.-The World
will to. o.morrow publish the following dis
patch:
BosToN, October 10.-In reference to
Mr.. Blaine's denial of the assertion of
Warren Fisher that he (Blaine) had
offered sum of money for the Mulligan
letters, Mr.. Fisher, in an interview, says
that, at the request of Mr.. Elisha Atkins,
aud at the special request of Mr.. Blaine,
he went to New York in the spring OF
1880, and met Mr.. Blaine at the 9th
Avenue Hotel, that then and there Mr..
Blaine made his request, definitely stated.
What was Mr.. Blaine's request?
To obtain by money or otherwise from
Jim Mulligan all letters, copies of letters,
all the letter books, copies from letter
books, and memoranda of every name
and nature in which Mr.. Blaine was
mentioned or had any interest.
What was the amount to be paid for
the delivery of these?
The amount to be paid was not limited.
I was to pay S10,000if I could not obtain
them for less. MI. Blaine further stated
that Mr.. John Cummings, the partner OF
Elisha Atkins & Co., could furnish all
the money for the purchase of the letters,
and he authorized me to confer with Mr..
Cummings about the money to be paid to
Mr.. Mulligan if the letters could be pur-
chased.
Did Mr.. Elisha Atkins know of this
proposition?
Certainly. He knew of my progress
from time to time about the purchase OF
the letters, and stated that his partner
had all the funds required if the pur-
chase was made as his partner MIR.
Cummings) had recently sold all OF
Blaine's Little Rock and Fort Smith
Railroad stock at about $50 per share,
which Mr.. Atkins thought at the time
was a foolish sale, as the stock afterwards
advanced, reaching about $50.

Silence is sometimes said to be golden,
but at this particular juncture Mr. w. W.
Russell is losing q golden opportunity in
not speaking. His reputation is at stake,
and the time 10 prove himself to be a
sincere man is fast passing away. BE
said twoyeara ago that be was truer
Democrat than those who controlled the
Democratic party, and that if the Repub-
licans nominated State ticket he would
come Immediately back to the Democrat.
ic party. The Republicans have nomi-
mated q full ticket, and Mr.. Russell is on
that ticket az a presidential elector. he
must, therefore, either decline this nomi-
nation or admit that he is not only no
Democrat, but that heis a full flledged
Radical, and that hedid not mean it
when be promised to oppose the Radicals if
they nominated ticket. It makes very
little. difference to anybody what Mr..
RUSSELL does; except so far as they would
personally like to see him maintain his
reputation for sincerity of purpose and
of speech. he and the molly crew with
which he is associated will be buried out
of sight at the polls in November. If
Mr.. Russell wants to stay away from the
decent people Of his State, in order to
make his political companions of such
men as Corbin, Melton, Stolbrand, Smalls,
McLane, ct i'd omne genus, be has The
right to indulge his taste. It may be
consolation to him to know that. be will
not be able to lead off any Democrats
into such disreputable political company
as he seems disposed to cast himself. We
even yet hope that Mr.. Russell, for his
own sake, and the sake of his friends,
will not allow the Radicals to make a
sacrifice Of him, but that he will come
out like a man and fulfill his promises of
two years ago by declining the empty
nomination of aiparty with which it will
be a disgrace for him to be identified.

An Ohio business man who has
been travelling through the South says;
Mississippi and Alabama are covered
with mortgages from one end to the
other, and they are both practically
owned by the merchants of New Orleans.
The planters of those States have
custom of mortgaging their crops before
they are grown. The crops fall, ano
they secure their notes by mortgage on
their plantations. They grow deeper
and deeper in debt, and the result is that
their estates have fallen into the hands
of their New Orleans brokers. Land is
very cheap in, Alabama and Mississippi
now. Some good timbered property can
be gotten as low as so cents an acre"
