Death OF Mr.. Emerson Wing.

This young man, one of the best known of
the natives of our city, died at the residence
of his ia ther, on Pickens street, at about @
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
For some time past he has been sleeping
ut his private room over the Carolina Bunk,
and on last night week the occupants of the
rooms in the same building were aroused By
his calls, and On going to his room found him
suffering from u violent attack of what APP
peared to b collie. He was removed to his
fathers house on Wednesday, since which
time he appeared to be improving, until yes
to-day afternoon, when his attending physi-
clan found him rapidly. sinking, and he died
at about 8 O'Clock. The immediate cause of
his death was paralysis of the heart, the
result of an attempt at suicide on the night
first mentioned, at which time he took large
doses OF strvchnine and corrosive sublimate
which fact he concealed from his physician
until last Thursday. The overdose of poison
at the time produced violent vomiting, which
saved his life for the time, but his conceal
which the poison was operating on his system,
made the subsequent efforts of his physician
to save him Of no avail.
Having been constrained by the publicity
given to these facts on the streets last night
to write this sad chapter, we can do no less
than point to the moral it teaches.

THE DENoMINATIoNAL CRU.
SADIE.

ga conference of the representatives Of the
the UNCONVENTIONAL colleges of this State who
were elected by the trustees of those Institu-
tons was held at the residence Of Col. James
a. Hoyt, editor of the Baptist Courier, ON
Thursday night. The following gentlemen
| were present
For Erskine College, Prof. Hood and Repre-
sentative 4. X. Hemphill, editor of the Able
Wofford College, DR.. w. w. Duncan and
Representative w. X. Blake.

Prof C.: W. Welsh deputy for DR.. e.. W.
| Holland.
Furman University, Colonel j. A. Hoyt,
editor of the Baptfst C0uriernnd Major. E.B.
Murray, of the Anderson Intelliyencer
The conference was In session about three
hours and discussed the State College thor
Oughly. The sentiment of the MEMBERS was
finally given shape in the following, which
was drawn up and unanimously adopted.
"The members of this conference, rcpresen.
ting the several denominations colleges al
South Carolina, hereby declare that we have
nance of the South Carolina University, and
wouldtayor any appropriate action of the
Board Of Trustees to make it a University OF
the highest grade.
"Hesolued, That we are unnlterably OPP,
posed te the existing feature of free tuition
which prevails in the South Carolina College
because we believe that it is wrong in princi.
pie and Injurious in policy to use the taxing
power OF the State to afford collegiate cduca'
tion without charge to those who are able tt
pay therefor, by which the college is brought
into unfair competition with the other colleges
of the State on II basis other than their rela'
tives meritssaf excellence.
"Rtso1Ued, That we favor the change o.
the Act regulating tho tuition charges in tn,
State University, So that the minimum
charge for tuition therein shall be ut least fiji
ty dollars per annum."--GreemuiHe NeWs.
All right! Now that the opponents
of the University have put thcmsclvc:
on record as only opposed to the "Fret
tuition" feature thereof, let the Boart
Of Trustees meet and adopt n tuition
fee. 1t can't hurt the University anc
1t may give us peace.

A Pathetic Case.

was not known to warrant in.giving publicity
TO so serious a narrative. The matter was
reported to the vcstry Of the church. Two

the church is deeply concerned. Nothing

scribes him correctly, except that it state,
him to be six feet three inches high. This il
incorrect. Things seem absolutely incredibl,

"Thc Abbeville MESSENGER is the on

pressed dissent from a recent editorial

body has said anything to the effect
that the possession of an honored or

cal advancement. All that is asked is
that such things may not be considered

to his own merits, regardless Of his an

distinctions are inevitable and wise in

ranged on q basis Of ~congeniality. But
they have properly no place in politics.

THE STORM.

The terrible storm Of wind and rain,
amounting to n cyclone, that passed over
Charleston on the 18th, is familiar in
all its details by this time. The NeWs
and Courier with n service that is un-
surpassed in Southern journalism, has
published the minutest particulars oil
this horrible visitor. Houses were
unroored and blown down, churches
lost their spires and roofs. Public
buildings were injured, wharvcs de-
stroyed, the battery broken and washed,
and the city drcnched in rain and silt
water. Yet in spite Of all this, but few
lives are lost. Truly this is wonderful and
cause Of great thankfulncss to the Rul-
or Of the storm.
The estimated value Of the property
destroyed is ver one and a half mill
ion of dollars ; and necessarily much
suffering must ensue. But with a cour-
age and energy that are the sure hardin
gers Of success, and i chcerfulncss and
patience thut are worthy Of all ad,nira-
ton, the people Of Charleston have set
about repairing their losses and DANA
ges. Every where Sounds Of labor arc
heard, and doubtless ere many DAYS
are passed all traces Of the visitor who
brought with him such destruction. and
loss will have disappeared from the face
of the noble old city. Charleston will
not accept any outside aid. She feels
able to take care Of her own sufferers.
But she will not take it amiss if we
send her the expression Of the hearty
sympathy of our people with her in
her misfortunes and Of their willing
ness to aid her if she finds that she
needs assistance.
We cannot refrain from express
ing u admiration of tho course
Of the NeWs and Courier in this
emergency. From the very first il
has sought to keep up tho courage OF
its people by words Of good cheer and
hope. 1t has never doubted Charles
toms ability to recover, and that spcedi-
ly, from this blow and we have no
doubt that its words, and its example
have had much to do with keeping up
the spirits Of the citizens. Nor has its
good work been confined to kind words
only. Many of the sufferers by the
storm are people who own their hum.
BILE homes and live by their daily labor.
These were unable to raise the money
sufficient to repair the injuries to thci,
property. The NcWs md Courier, has
perfected arrangements by which those
people may obtain the sums they need
on most favorable terms: This is q
work Of bsnevolcnce, Of true charity
and rebounds TO the glory Of our city
contemporary. 1t has asked no pay.
and seeks no reward. But there can be
no doubt that its bread thus cast upon
the waters will return after many days.
