some poor cotton and some grassy
cotton, but have never seen year
without some poor, grassy cotton
and blasted corn. We noticed that
the old church building at Colony
has been removed, and from ap-
pearances will soon be replaced by
a new one. This shows that the
pastor, DR.. Holland, is working
man, and his people are willing to
be led by him. In erecting a new
church edifce they honor not only
themselves but their pastor and en-
tire community. We passed Pros
perity and left the candidates, and
finally reached the church. We
we're saddened by the intelligence
that one of the worthy citizens of
that neighborhood, Mr.. Henry B-o-
zer, was to be buried that morning
at that place. The funeral services
were in progress when we reached
the church. DR.. Hawkins closed
his remarks before we could get
quietly seated, but we caught the
following sentence: "a few days
ago while speaking with him he
told me that he had never cursed
an oath, he never used the degrad-
ing language Of the swearer," and
the Doctor added, she was eighty
two years old at his DEATH" We
thought of the profanity among
ouyselves,-the boys who are soon
to step into the arena OF life, and
the habits we have; and when the
annoyances of life come upon US,
can one of rs, when our heads are
whitened with the frosts of eighty
winters, be found, WHO can truth
fully say that he never used profane
language? The cold clay was laid
lightly on the coffin, and the crowd
returned to the church, gayety re-
turning to their countenances as
they went, and all seemed forgetfnl
that one of the fathers in that com
munity had been laid TO rest. Rev.
MI. Bowles, whose hand we love to
grasp, delivered very interesting
and instructive address to the chill
dren on the suhject-Duty. Then
came the dinner, to which all were
invited. I'll fad sumptuous.y.
It is said of a candidate from town
that he spent most of the morning
trying to win three Edgefeld men
to his standard. In the afternoon
Rev. Mr.. Hallman delivered most
excellent address on the subject
Sowing Seed. On our way homo
we metat Prosperity, Messrs. Counts
and Keller. The latter was a stu
dent at Newberry College last year
aud was just returning from his

We hope he will come and spend

antly as the last. We reached

HON. PATRICK WALSH OF THE
NATIONAL EXECUTIVE
COMMITTEE.

The election of the Hon. Patrick
Walsh, of the Augusta Chronicle g.
ConStitationalist, as the member
from Georgia OF the National Exc
cuti7e Com mmittee of the Democratic
party, was an honor to Georgia as
we'll as 20 himself. He will make
an excellent member, being the
very man of all the State for the
place. One dominant trait of Mr..
Walsh which no man can fail to
admire, is his everlasting adhesion
to the principle he believes to be
right. A man of clear head and
live conscience, be is ever analyti-
cal and scrupulous prior to the as
sumption OF a position, bnt when
his mind is made mp, his Irish grit
is there to stay. He may aptly be
called civilized Davy Crockett, for
when he believes he is right ''he
goes ahead. ."-Edgefeld AdvertiSer.

Two shocks of an earthquake
were experienced last Sunday af-
ternoon from Boston to Baltimore,
Ali the towns and cities within the
area were considerably shaken and
The inhabitants much alarmed. The
disturbances were between two and
three o'clock. Hartford was the
centre of the shock, and the vibra-
tions were felt as far South as Rich
mond. Stately edi6ces were shaken
and in some instances heavy build
ings were shifted. Several persons
died Of fright. Philadelphia had
the liveliest experiences. High
waves swept the piers. Among the
results of the shock were the pros
tration of individuals, topping Of
chimnies, fall Of plastering, ringing
of bells, cracking of walls and win.
dow glass and the falling of brick
upon the pavements.
This is somewhat new for New
York and the North-atlantic coast,
and is another link in the chain of
startling phenomena so frequent OF
late.

right to extol itself as an ''inde-
pendent unorganized' newspaper,
or its right to bestow a merited
compliment upon other newspapers
Of that class, but we do say that
justice to the people and the press
Of the State demands that the de-
pendent organized newspapers, if
there be such, should be named
and exposed.
If the Press and Banner is an
outspoken independent newspaper,
the people will find it out; and if
our contemporary cannot feel hap
py without constantly extolllng its
merits and paying tribute to its in
dependence, it can do this without
saying, either directly or by i'm
plication, that any of the news
papers Of the State are dependent,
organized, and have not the cour-
age to express opinions of their
own.
We sometimes disagree with the
Neacs and Courier, but we will never
disagree with it simply that we may
be regarded as courageous and in
dependent. We have no reason to
believe that the Press and Bamaer
looks upon US as dependent news,
paper, but we do think that it has
cast an unjust imputation upon all
but several Of the newspapers OF
South Carolina.

Of cotton that won't make more

games and plays. Then came the
dinner hour, when the good old

o short distance TO q good spring
and spread it all out nicely and
blew a horn for all to come up and
eat. Gathering around the table,
the blessing was asked by MIR. Geo.

of the dinner, we re,assemblea in

A RESOLUTION.

The Judicial Convention which
met in Charleston last week unani-
mously adopted resolution favor
ing the repeal of Section 26, Ar
ticle 4, of the State Constitution,
which reads as follows: Judges
shall not charge jewies IN respect to
matters OF fact, but maay state the
testimony and declare the gaoo.
We regard this provision as eml-
nently wise and salutary, and, SO
far as we are informed, its wisdom
is called into question now for the
first time. The opinion was ex-
pressed in the preamble to this res
olution. that guilty persons are Of
ten acquitted when defended by
counsel of standing, because the
Judges are not allowed to charge
iuries as to matters Of fact. 1t IS
the duty of the Solicitor to repre-
sent the State and see that the ends
of Justice are not defeated. He
ought to be able to cope with local
counsel Of standing" in presenting
the facts of a case, and he ought
to be as fully in possession Of the
facts of any case, as the presiding
Judge. But it is proposed that the
Judges shall be allowed to charge
juries rs to matters Of fact. AS
the law stands they are not for
hidden TO review the evidence and
state the testimony so as to bring
it clearly to the understanding Of
the juries-they have all the pow.
ers that any wisely ordered Judicial
system can safely give them.
If this section of the Constitu-
ton were repealed, the Judges
would be authorized to state their
conclusions from the evidence, and
to declare the facts as we'll as the
law. And the juries would ineTita.
bly, be inclined to reach the same
conclusion as that reached by
the presiding Judge; just as
they now feel bound 10 follow
the law as it is declared from
the bench. They would no longer
be the sole judges as to matters Of
fact, and the institution Of trial by
jury would practically be shorn Of
that which alone places it among
the safeguards Of individual lib
erty. Any such change Of our ju-
dicial system as that proposed
would be dangerous, and therefore
unwise. "
