RAILROAD MEETING AT HOODTOWN.

Pursuant to previous notice, meeting OF
citizens of Western York, interested in the
construction of a railroad through that Sec
ton of the county, was held at HoodtoWn,
on Saturday, 21st instant. The meeting
was organized by calling Rev. S. j. Mcleod
to the chair, and the appointment of ID. c.
Atkinson, M. D., as secretary.
The object of the meeting was explained
by DR.. J. w. Allison to be the discussion OF
the desirablity of securing the construction
of a railroad, and to decide which of the
two projected lines it was most advisable to
cooperate with.
Several other gentlemen addressed the
meeting, all of whom favored the scheme.
The plans suggested for raising money for
building the proposed road, was by taxing
the townships through which the line
would run and by private subscriptions.
Mr. Robert Hays introduced the follow
ing resolutions, which was seconded and
adopted:
Resolved, That this meeting endorse the pro-
ceeding Of the meeting held at Hickory Grove,
on the 14th instant.
Mr.. w. S. Hood offered the following
resolution:
Rcsolved That the following named gentle
men, viz: DR.. J. w. Allison, w. S. Wilkerson,
Joseph NJ. Sims, J. B. Jenkins, w. Y. White
and r. G. Whitesides, be appointed committee
to confer with the Gaffney City Railroad Com
pany, and the Shelby and Broad River Railroad
Company, and ascertain, as near as possible,
what amount Of money will be required for the
building of so much of the road as pertains to
this section, and also what terms can be made
with the respective companies, and report the
facts to future meeting.
The resolution was seconded and unani-
mously adopted.
There being no other business, after some
splendid music by the cornet bands of the
township, on motion, the meeting adjourn

SENATORIAL ELECTIONS.

In the Arkansas Legislature, last Friday
before the balloting for Senator was COM
menced, letter was read from PoindeXter
Dunn, withdrawing from the Senatorial
contest. The fifth joint ballot was then
taken and resulted in the election of James
H. Berry to succeed Garland in the United
States Senate. The vote was, Berry 72,
Newton II, Fishback 13, House ., Horne 2,
Crittenden s; necessary to a choice G2.
George Gray, of Wilmington, Delaware,
has been elected by the Legislature of that
State to succeed Senator Bayard. In the
caucus, Gray was nominated on the second
ballot, receiving Is votes, to 8 for Congress-
man Lore and ) for ex-Congressman Mar
tin. Gray's nomination was made unani-
nous. AT the time of his election he was
Attorney-General of Delaware.
The deadlock in the Illinois Legislature
continues. The death on last Friday OF
State Senator Bridges, following that OF
Representative Logan, three weeks ago,
leaves the Illinois Legislature once more a
tie on joint ballot.

casional flaw in the coming that one of them
is detected, and it is, therefore, impossible
to estimate the quantity of them in circula-
tion. Counterfeiting Of this sort is exceed
ingly profitable when done on large scale,
as detection is practically impossible if or.
dinary precautions are taken. 1t is not at
all surprising that crooks who have recently
stopped to counterfeit pennies should make
this a branch of their work. The bullion
value of one dollar in subsidiary silver coins
is only II cents, and the % per cent. margin
of profit makes it quite an inducement to
the counterfeiters. 1t is believed that most
of the metal used is from remelted trade
dollars. BY the purchase of these in large
quantities the counterfeiters obtain the met
al already mixed at just the standard alloy.
To illustrate the profit in the operation, one
hundred trade dollars purchased for $S4,
the present market price, will yield 2l7
standard half dollars, profit of S4.50, less
the small cost of recoinage.

PLUM FOR THE LAWYERS.

1t is predicted that the singular will of the
late David Dickson, the wealthy Georgia
planter, will be contested, and the Augusta
Chronicle says that "the Georgia lawyers
are jubilant' at the prospect of becoming
his residuary legatees." Of a recent public
appearance of the favored legatee, the Spar
ia Ishnaaetite says:
"Amanda A. Dickson, the $400, 900 heir
ess from Hancock went to Augusta last
Friday. Everybody on the train was anx-
ious to see the richest colored woman in the
United States. She created about as much
of sensation as did Henry Ward Beecher
when he travelled through the South. She
was dressed in deep mourning and had her
mother and youngest boy with her,"

by a very brief reference to recent history.
The Democracy has been seeking the Presl-
dency for the sake of the spoils ever since
the war. 1t has set up all sorts of proies-
sions, and from time to time, as in 1880, has
tried to contest without any professions to
speak of. It has failed every time. Last
year the Republicans adopted the spols cry
as their own, and for the first time met the
Democracy fairly enrolled under the banner
of civil service reform, with leader repre-.
senting that reform. They won in spite of
the fact that large body of its greediest
and most experienced spoils seekers went,
directly or indirectly, over to the kepuph-
cans. The election of 1884 was crucial eX-
pertinent of the real vitality of the spoils
principle in conflict with the opposing prin-
ciple Of reform. If Mr.. Cleveland were to
abandon the vantage then won and try to
range his party on the old lines, ne would
simply render it's defeat in 1888 inevitable:
It's sole remaining vitality would be that OF
the yermin which fed upon it.-N. Y. Times.

THE OKLOHAMA TROUBLES.

Under date of last Saturday, Gen. Hatch
telegraphed to the War Department that
about five hundred of the Oklohama rioters
have congregated at Coffeeville, Kansas, on
the southern border line, with the intention
of moving into the territory. He has sent
a force to intercept them.
A petition containing nearly 1,5OO names
of would be settlers in Oklohama, now in
camp near Arkansas City, Kansas, has
been forwarded to the President. The Pc
tition recites that several hundred citizens,
from nine States, many having their fami-
lies, household goods and farming utensils,
are now encamped there preparatory to set
tlement in Oklohama, having disposed OF
their homes elsewhere.
