Ona steam ship the passengers, without introduc-
tions, mingle together with the greatest social
freedom and form for each other strong, but pos
sibly only ephemeral attachments. Strange
things and curious devices are resorted to by the
passengers to while away the hours during which
they are pent up on the sea- On Saturday night
there was held moot court, in which young
man was tried for breach Of promise. The jury
was composed entirely of young ladies. The
affair, was told, was to the young, very enioya-
ble did not attend. In life there is enough of
realities to satisfy my desires.
Sabbath morning the Captain read the Episco-
pal service in the dining room. The passengers
generally attended and some no doubt were edi-
fed, many, however, were not. 1t was too man
ifest that obedience to secular law, and not love
to God or respect for his day on the services of
his house, prompted the Captain to officiate as
minister of religion. The Captain is an exceed
ingly clever man, full Of life and fun but irrelig
ions. 1t seems strange that he did not ask some
one Of the six ministers on board to conduct the
service. This he didnot do Some of the passen-
gers asked him to grant the privilege OF holding
granted and at the appointed hour, Rev. A. A.
Hodge, D.. D., preached to few of us. The
service was greatly enjoyed by every one
present.
Ireland was seen, in the dim and cloud-like, dis
tance. By three o'clock the rocky hills of the
Green Isle of the ocean were in full view. The
passengers all gazed with delightat what appear
ed to be only barren crags The stone walls.
which divide the pasture grounds present most
beautiful appearance. At eight in the evening,
Queenstown was reached. Here the Austral was
met by boat which took those passengers who
desired to land, on board. The detention was
short and the Ausirdl was soon gliding smooth
ly up st. Georges Channel. Atsunrise on Mon
day morning Holly Head was in view. By
noon we will reach Liverpool when this will be
mailed. From Liverpool the route will be to
Fleetwood by the cars; thence by boat to Bel
fast, where will be found until after the ad-
journment of the Council, and from which your
readers may expect to hear from me again.

THE PRESS AND BANNER.

We have no desire to act discourteously to-
wards any of our contemporaries, nor intention
ally to place any of them in a false position. We
republished last week paragraph from the Co
lumbia Register which the editor Of the Able
Vile Press and Banner construes as reflection
upon his manner of attempting to ascertain
public sentiment in the State on the question OF
public schools. In reproducing the paragraphin
question twas not with the view Of enforcing the
point to which the editor Of the Press and Ban
ner takes eXception-tor really that particular
feature of the article did not impress us at the
time-but simply to show the impossibility OF
one issue of newspaper publishing the senti-
ments of the people of an entire State on
question affecting every man, woman and child
within it's borders. We still maintain this posi-
ton, and such would have been ouropinion even
though the editor Of the Press and Banner had
published replies to his questions only from
those favoring education for the poor children OF
the State instead of sandwiching such replies
with others in favor of closing the public schools
to all the children. From our pleasant personal
acquaintance with the editor Of the Press and
Banner we know that he would resort to no un-
fair means to present his side Of the question,
and we therefore take pleasure in publishing the
following note just received from him:
EDITOR OF THE YoRKv1LLE ENQUIRER: Dea,
Sir: In your paper of the 10th instant, you pub
lished from the Register an unwarrantable insin-
uation as to the manner in which the Press and
Banner sent questions to different citizens as to
the school question. The questions were fairly
distributed, and any hint, insinuation or asser-
ton to the contrary is without foundation IN
fact. Respectfully,
THE PRESS AND BANNER,

THE TOWN COUNCIL.

On Tuesday last a meeting of the Town Coun-
Gil was held, and the indscriminate sale ofintox-
icating liquors on the prescriptions ofphysicians
was considered. After consultation the drug
stores in town were visited by committees COM
posed of the wardens-two wardens visiting each
druggist-for the purpose of examining thep
scription files of spirituous liquors sold by the
druggists on physicians prescriptions. From
the prescriptions examined, the Council selected
one case as violation of the law, viz: three pre-
scriptions of one quart each, by avisiting physi-
clan to delegate in attendance upon the Demo
cratic Convention last Saturday. The Council
resolved to prosecute the said physician, and one
of their number will swear out a warrant. For
reasons which the Council deem unnecessary to
make public, the warrant will be deferred for
the present, but we learn-and we give the
statement only as a matter of news as it reaches
us-that it is the intention of the Council to
prosecute the case.

POLITICS In THE STATE.

There are twenty-one candidates for
county commissioner in Clarendon county.
Maj r. w. Woodward will go to the
State Senate from Fairfield, all the other
candidates giving way for him.
The Democracy of Abbeville county will
have grand rally at Greenwood on July
II, at which there will be general delivery
of political speeches by the candidates for
all sorts Of offices. ..
The Kershaw Democratic County Con-
vention adopted resolution instructing the
delegates to the State Convention to vote
against making nominations for State off,
making nominations was continued.
Says the Union Times: A minister re-
quests US to say for the benefit of candidates
that some of the country churches contem-
plate passing resolutions not to vote for
any candidate who, attending church, keeps
part of the congregation out of the house
after worship has commenced.
DIR. Webster has published card in the
Orangeburg Times and Democrat denying
any connection with the election of the
Rev. L. NJ. Dunton as president of Clatiin
University, and asserting that "during his
Dunton's) residence in the State for many
years he has been more conservative and
prudent on the exciting question of politics
than even DIR. Cooke"
The Greenville Ne1rs, speaking of the
Congressional chances in Wyatt Aiken's dis
trict, says: "Oconee has instructed her del
egates to vote for George Johnstone for Con-
gress, which gives him a lead in the Con-
vention, he having IA votes, and the next
highest is Colonel Aiken, having but IL.
1t is anybody's race with the chances against
Col. Aiken, who we earnestly hope will be
beaten. The friends of the public school
system should be solidly against him. His
election would be an endorsement of his op-
position to the present system which, with
all its faults and defects, is the best we can
obtain with our present means, and very
good beginning which can be developed as
this country gains in wealth and popu-
lation."
The Democratic Convention of Fairfield
county reelected Maj T. w. Woodward as
County Chairman resolved for proper re-
form of tariff adopted a resolution extend
ing an invitation to the former Greenback-
ers of the county to return to the Democrat

On last Friday morning Lou Edwards, color
ed, wife of Jesse Edwards, who lives on the
plantation of Mr.. w. Meek Adams, Near Bowl
ing Green, in this county, attempted to kindle
firewith kerosene, having half-gallon can in her
hands. 1t would seem superfuous to relate the
remainder of the story; but if it will prove a
warning to Others we will 60 on and say that
the kerosene ignited, the can exploded, the wo-
man was so badly burned that she died on Sun
day morning, and only by the timely appearance
of Mr.. Adams, who heard the screams of the
woman. was the house saved from destruction.

A strange coincidence recently occurred
in the death of General O. E. Babcock. 1t
will be remembered that one Myron Colony
was one of the prime movers in the prose-
cution of General Babcock at the time he
was charged with being connected with the
whisky ring frauds at st. Louis. A letter
just received from gentleman residing
at Jacksonville, Florida, says Mr.. Colony
moved to that city and became member
Of firm of real estates agents. General
Babcock, who remained in government
service was drowned last week, as heretofore
published. The same night his body ar
rived at Jacksonville, Mr.. Colony died,
and the two bodies were taken to the same
undertaken. They were embalmed together
and sent North on the same train as far as
Washington, where General Babcock's body
will be left, while Colony's will 60 to his
friends in New Hampshire. 1t is some
what remarkable that these two men should
thus unconsciously meet in death so far
rom the scene of former strife, and travel
to their graves together.
