ROCKVILLE.

This is an old settlement, but a
new name. I wont try to tell you
where it is, for I think you have
been here a couple Of times, and
know what kind of plaae it is.
! 1 congratulate Mr.. Ed. on his
new departure, and wish him a long
and successful career.
Mr.. Alf. Crotwell has as fine patch
Of wheat as I know Of. He is an
extensive cotton planter, but when
he undertakes to raise wheat he can
do it. He will soon put a steam
brick mill to work.
Our bachelor neighbor indulges
in the furrow quite freely. If he
had some one to raise chickens and
pick beans for him we think he
would make successful farmer.
Hon. Geo. Johnstone's ranch
has improved wonderfully of late,
new cottages, new barns, saw mill
and new hands.
Mr.. J. G.. R., has q fine colt that
he will exhibit at the next County
fair.
A flourishing Sunday school, un.
der the superintendent of Capt.
W. B. Aull, is in good working or.
der at Pine Grove school house.
two and half miles from town.
We have about forty pupils, and
five teachers. Also a day school
at the same place under the tuition
of Miss Carrie Aull. The faces
have changed in that school since l
attended it, but the place is the
same, and the teacher just kind.
Yours, &C.,

A VEGETARIAN.-W. p. Calhoun,
Esq, who writes so intelligently on
farming to the Saluda Argus is
more than a ''book farmer On his
mothers place near town he has
transplanted 500 cabbage plants,
500 tomato plants and has put
enough vegetables in the ground to
feed the whole town. Mrs. Calhoun
has always been noted for her fine
garden, but never before has such
an extensive planting been done.
The reason is that Mr.. Calhoun is
more ola vegetarian than the bal
ance of US and means to have enough
vegetables if he has to do the work
himself. He has put in cabbages
enough for himself and may have a
few over for the rest of the family.

The jury law of this State ex-
empts more than twenty classes Of
persons from serving on the juries.
Some of our contemporaries think
that this law is one of the primary
causes of the unsatisfactory results
of trial by jury, and should there
fore be repealed. While we see no
good reason for exempting some of
these classes, school trustees for in
stance, from jury service, we think
that We must look elsewhere for the
unsatisfactory results Of trial by
jury. As a rule, we think the YER
diets of our juries fairly represent
the moral sentiment of the COM
munity; and when that sentiment is
sound and healthy we may look for
satisfactory results from trial by
jury.

PROTECTION ENOUGH AND TO
SPARE.

AuS IeCCS UHu CONIEeT HAS puu-
lished q number of letters from
presidents of Southern cotton mills,
in reference to the comparative ad.
Tantages of Southern and Northern
mills, in the manufacture Of cotton.
Taking the mean of the statements
received from different mills, it ap-
pears that the Southern mill has an
advantage of about 81 bale. At
ter showing, on this basis, that such
a mill as the Eagle and Phoenix, of
Columbus, Ga, has an advantage
of at least S67,5O0 over a Northern
mill Of similar capacity, the Neecs
and Courier says: "Verily this
is advantage enough. Protection
enough"
The point which we make is this :
If the Southern mill has an advan-
tage of as much as 81 a bale over
its Northern competitor-if it has
advantage enough and protection
enough in its natural advantages,
why should it be protected by legis-
lation ? Why should the capital
invested in cotton mills in this
State be exempt from taxation ?
Why is it, more than other private
investments, entitled to exemption
We hope that we shall never be
found among those who are in
cGned to prevent, or even hinder,
industrial progress and material
development in the South. But we
frankly say that we cannot see the
justice of that law which exempts
from taxation capital invested in
any private enterprise. The men
who are able to invest capital in
cotton mills are the very persons
who are best able to pay taxes.
A, who puts $4,000 into a cotton
mill withdraws that amount from
the taxable property of the County
while B, his unfortunate neighbor,
who owns nothing but a house and
lot valued at $4,000, is required to
pay taxes on his property to sup
port the government that protects
A in the enjoyment of his stocks.
Under the law exempting cotton
mills in this State from taxation
for the term of ten years, the State
and Counties have refunded to the
manufacturing companies the sum
of S21,204; this, too, in spite of the
fact, that they have protection
enough in their natural advan
tages.
The Northern mills have pro-
lection in the shape of high tariff
duties; the mills of our State have
protection in exemption from taxa
ton. There is difference in de-
gree, but we can descry no differ
enee in principle.

The S. S. Zealandia brought news
that the schooner Julia had been
totally wrecked at the Gilbert Is
lands. Mr.. G. Brown, of Bishop &
Co., received letter from San Fran
cisco briefly conveying the infoGma-
ton and promising further particu-
lars by the Alameda. From the S.
r. Call, of 18th inst, we take the
following:
''The bark G. w. Seaver, which
arrived Friday from the Bonin Is
lands, reports that on August 24th
last the schooner Staghound, Cap
tain Hansen, went ashore on Strong
Island and was totally lost. The
captain of the Seaver also reports
that the Hawaiian schooner Julia
was totally wrecked on January 10th
last by going ashore on one of the
Gilbert Islands group
All hands were saved. The Julia
was insured in five offices, so, 900 in
each; $4,000 was on the outfit and
5000 on the hull. The Firemen's
Fund Insurance Co., of which Bis
hop & Co. are the Honolulu agents,
is interested to the extent of So, 900.
The Government had effected no
insurance, consequently the collec-
tions of Diplomat Clarke, unless
saved, will be irretrievably lost. The
country will also probably have to
sustain the loss of the secondhand
uniforms, cooked hats and swords
with which High Commissioners Tripp
and Curiosity Collector Clarke
adorned their stately forms. There
will probably be an enormous de-
mand for the photographs of the
Curiosity Collector, which he had
taken, before his departure, in full
regalia, and one of these photographs
will doubtless be the only relic left
to place as Curio in the Museum
for the large expenditure of the
funds of that Institution.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs
received letter this morning from
Clarke, who had arrived in San
Francisco by the G! w. Seayer, stat
ing that he would return to Homo

a further fall of one-eighth, the rates
being 81 cents for 950, The advices
further stated that the market closed

and pistol fools.
THE REASON FOR IT.

The Chicago Tribune says 1.-THE City
Council of Chicago has become notorioualy
corrupt, is apparently impervious to criti'
cism or restraint, and resorts to blaokmail
upon every possible occasion" If this be
true it is the fault of the citizens of Chi
caco. That municipality upquestionably
has good people enough within its bound
aries to select honest men to office. Ii
not, then the corrupt Council is faithfully
and fairly representative of the city OF
Chicago. That is all there is on the ques-
ton. When citizens who favor fair play,
honest administration and economy remain
away from the primaries, and neglect to
give their influence to the right direction
of political parties, they consent to the
baser elements taking charge of party ma
chinery through which the nominations
are made. If bad men are then chosen,
the blame is to be laid at the door of the
"good" citizens who voluntarily surrender
the reins of government to the vicious.
The way toward reform lies through the
personal activity of every citizen, begiu-
ming with the ward club and leading up
through caucus, primary, convention and
the election. Whenever these duties are
neglected, the vicious element comes tc
the front and sees to it that it at least is
represented. And therein the vicious read
the virsuous timely lesson.

TIE CIVIL Rig rs BILL.

TIE "civil rights bill " has become law
in Ohio. Il is an exact copy of the ma
tioual law declared unconstitutional by
the Supreme Court of the United States.
There can be no objection 70 its passage
by State Legislatures. Bat It can only al
firm rights already guaranteed. No such
law can add to the constitutions, rights of
the negro citizen. It follows that, at best,
it is surplusage on the statute books of
any State. II the passage is intended as
a rebuko to the Supreme Court, it falls
short of its mark, for that tribunal did not
assail the principles of the law in any re-
spect. 1t simply declared that all the
rights it gave were already secured, and
that Congressional legislation on the sub
Jet therefore lacked vitality.

he should go scott free, since he lacks
capacity even for hanging. The other day
one of these idiots at sn evening party in
Brooklyn, y. Y, proposed TO "mesme-

to point pistol at the girls head and snap
the weapon, saying that as he did so che
would feel "the influence" She pro.

assured her that the weapon was not
loaded. Trusting her lover implicitly, the
poor creature closed her eyes, and st the
third pull of the trigger the pistol ex.

the fool insisted that he did not know the
pistol was loaded. Him We pass by he

'DIgs NOVEL WORK.

The New York Trjbu.e has pronounced
IN favor OF the crusade against the pesti-
lent, pernicious literature evil. While if
believes that there is need for State action
in the matter, it very properly points out
that cole reliance upon the State must not
be had. There is need for private energy
to be projected into the crusade. The
duty of the familyis greater than the duty
of the State in this regard. The parental
authority must be exercised. As cur con-

EEEDED AMENDMENTS.

It is proposed in Congress to SO amend
the patent laws that those who limo
Gently purchase patent rights and find
themselves joined in actions for infrir ge-
ment as defendants, shall not be liable ex-
cept when the damages exceed $50. This
is mere aggravation. The amendment
should 90 to the extent of absolutely ex-
empting all innocent purchasers. How
can the average citizen be justly held,
when patent right is offered for his in
vestment, to inquire into all the questions
Of Infringement? It should be enough to
enioin him from using or selling the
patented article, without mulcting him in
damages, except it can be shown that he
had knowledge of the fraud. The patented
articles Of use are too numerous, and the
market IS too large, to apply the rule to all
men as the law row insiats upon. Let the
claimant pursue the man who makes
originally, who infringes first, aud leads
others into the trap but as against ali
others mere injunction should be deemed
sufficient protection to the patentee.
