PARSONS, Kan. April lone thousand
five hundred people gathered this morning

That the Catholic Church of America
is giving more direct attention to the
cause of temperance in this country is
,-eyinced by the action of the third Plenary
Council of Baltimore, which recently
closed an important session. One of the

checking immortality and drunkenness,
ahd particular tribute is paid by the
bishops to the Catholic Union, the Total
Abstinence aud the Sacred Thirst Socie.
ties. In concludin. this decree. the
bishops say: eve admonish all the
faithful who make their living by trading
iu the various liquors, to seriously reflect
upon the many dangers and occasions of
sin with which this business is surrounded,
although in itself not forbidden. Let
them choose, if possible, more hoaora-
BILE method of acquiring livelihood, but
should this not be feasible, they must
endeavor to remove both from themselves
and others all occasions of sin. Let
them not sell intoxicating drinks to
minors or to those whom they know to
be habitual drunkards. They must also
close their stores on Sunday, and vigo-
rously refuse to allow blasphemies; oaths
or indecent conversation within their
place of business"

The Floods.

'i'l.r ,.,i,;s "i last week produced ;'nc ol
the greatest floods ever known in this
country and we give below few of the
accounts from points which suffered
most:
MACON, GA, April Hundreds Of
people were TO be seen on the banks OF
the booming Ocmuigec today, watching
the mighty current as it swept past carry
ing death and destruction in its course.
Tie incidents last night were fearful, and
with the coming of daylight it was found
that an unfortunate man named Cornell
Cheely, drayman. who had climbed to
the top of tree for safety, and whose
cries for help were heard at intervals
during the night, was nowhere 10 be seen.
He was one Of the men who refused to
leave his house yesterday morning, even
after the water had reached it.
Another man named Jack Reeves, who
was fireman at the compress, is also
missing, and it is supposed he was drown
ed. a number of attempts were made
yesterday and last night 10 rescue these
men, but each time the boat capsized,
and the rescuers were compelled to return
to land.
Of The forty or more houses near the
river, iu East Macon, about twenty-five
were undermined and have toppled over
and are in all sorts of positions. Many
of the occupants lost all their household
effects and are suffering for the necessi.
ties of life The river has fallen about
three feet to day aud it is hoped that the
worst has passed.
BIRMINGl1AM. April 1.-Specials to
the Aqe from the river towns Of North
Alabama show that The effects of the
freshet are worse even than telegraphed
Yesterday. Gadsden reports the Coosa
river at its highest mark aud rising, with
alarming reports from above. All rail-
road bridges on the branch road, between
Alfalfa aud Gadsden, are swept away and
Dumber of wsshouIs on the Alabama
Great Southern are reported on both
sides of the Atalla. The mill and lum.
ber interests at Gadsden have suffered
immense damage.
The. Tennessee is reported out of its
banks at several points. From Tusca.
loosa, on the Warrior river, advices are
serious, though it is beloved the worse
has passed. Many houses on either side
of the river have been abandoned aod
the water is running through the doors
and windows. Some families occupy the
upper stories of dwellings and skifs and
fiat boats are used for transportation.
The village of Northport, across the
river from Tuscaloosa, is almost submerg.
ed now. The water is foot deep in the
Tuscaloosa Cotton Factory, and work had
to be abandoned. Just before dark the
wreck of q small house passed down the
river, and several persons were observed
clinging to the timbers. Rescuing par.
ties, in skifIs, started out in pursuit from
the Tuscaloosa shore and were rapidly
borne out of sight by the rapid current.
Many persons living on low lands below
Tuscaloosa had to be rescued from their
homes in a skif. No calculation can yet
be made of the amount of damage to the
farming interests and to railroads and
other highways.

The caucus Of the Republican MEM
bers of the Senate met last week to
agree upon the policy to be pursued with
President Cleveland in the instances of
Republican officers who have been re-
moved, and in whose cases the President,
and those acting under him, refuse to
furnish the papers relating to the change
to the Senate. Senator Edmunds favored
vigorous action by the caucus, but he
could not command the acquiesence of
the whole of the Republican Senators,
and therefore his schemes failed. The
caucus adjourned without agreeing to
any policy, and the Senate is going ahead
with con6rmations. The Republican
members of the Senate have made faces
at the President, but are unable to ac-
complish any more harmful or creditable
achievement in the matter.

The nomination of Col. VIM. l.
Trenholm, as Comptroller of the Cur
rency, has been confirmed BY the Senate,
although considerable opposition to
him was developed by the silver men on
account of recent speeches of Col. Tren-
holm upon the silver question-particu-
larly his recent speech before the bank
ers' convention in which he spoke in de-
cidedly harsh terms of the advocates Of
the present silver coinaee law. Col.
Trenholm is an accomplished gentleman,
and thoroughly qualified for the duties
of the position to which he has been
appointed.

Mr.. EDITOR: In last weeks issue of
the INTELL1GENcER I read with pleasure
the communication of "Citizen." in
regard to building bridge across Seneca
River at or below the mouth Of Deep
Creek; also, your editorial on this sub,
ject, and the invitation to persons living
in this Township to give their views.
Iregard this question as one of vital
Importance to the Fork. We have a
thrifty population and good lands, but
are too remote from markets, and espe.
cial|y from our County Seat. any
measure which will place US in closer and
mare certain communication with Auder-
son is greatly to be desired. There are
many objections to the present route by
Earle's Bridge-the most important,
perhaps, the fact that we are only in
partial communication with Anderson.
for often when we can cross the river
Deep Greek cannot be crossed.
The road, from the intersection of the
Sloan's Ferry and Earle's Bridge Roads,
to point near Mr.. Wn,. Bolts residence,
is succession cf bends and turns and
precipitous hills, which in vet weather
become almost impossible, aud prevent
persons going to Anderson from hauling
load. The distance by Earle's Bridge
is also from one to perhaps three miles
further to many persons thaa by the
proposed route. If bridge is to be kept
up for the convenience of the residents
of this Township, and persons travelling
through, Ihen it should be situated SO as
to do "the greatest good to the greatest
number" The route proposed will
receive the solid support of the people OF
the lower half of the Fork, as the'present
bridge is Of little benefit to them, it
being difficult matter for them to make
the trip to Anderson and back in a day
by that route. Consequently, they are
compelled, often, to 60 10 Hartwell and
other points.
On the other hand, so far from being
an injury the proposed change will be
benefit to those residing in the upper
part of the Township, for have been
informed, by those who should know,
that by actual survey the new route
would be one mile nearer to Townville,
land / should think, also, to persons
residing near Fair Play,) than by Earle'a
Bridge, besides affording a good ridge
road instead of hills, and the certainty
of reaching Anderson. instead of the
uncertainty Of being able to cross Deep
Creek.
Petitions are now being circulated
through the Townships, requesting our
County Commissioners to build bridge
at or below the mouth of Deep Greek.
These petitions are beiug signed By men,
the majority of whom are compelled 10
practice the strictest economy in their
private matters, and who favor an eco
nomical administration of our County
and State affairs but they are men Of
practical good sense, who fully realize
that there is as much false economy in
constantly patching up an old bridge as
in repairing rundown vehicle; and,
also, that "time is money" and who can
ill afford the loss Of time aud injury to
stock in going through the "Deep Greek
hills" V. r. MARTIN.

A case of considerable interest was
tried in Greenville On last Saturday
before Judge Witherspoon in the Court
of Common Pleas. The wife of Jas.
F. Harrison brought suit against J. E..
Payne, liquor dealer, tor selling her
husband whiskey after she had notified
him not do 80. The jury rendered a
verdict for s125 for the plaintiff. This is
believed to be the first case of the kind
tried in the State under the statutes. If
these suits were more frequent there
would be less of the crime of selling
whiskey to minors and Incorporate per.

Mr.. EDITOR: You do not seem in.
clined to answer my questions, but no
ofFense, sir, for that. This does not keep
me and my neighbors from talking and
thinking. If there is no way of finding
out how much the whiskey business of
Anderson costs the people of tie County
in the way of fines, in addition to drinks,
take it for granted that it is enormous,
and that those who know do not like to
tell. Secrecy, profound secrecy, which
would unfold poverty, want and ruin.
But we have learned one thing, and
that is that peoples rights depend upon
where they may happen to live. If they
happen to live in towns they may decide
whether they will allow whiskey sold or
not. If they live in the country the
authorities and Legislators say, you have
no rights in this matter, for this is deci-
ded by others for you. Out our way
sometime ago, when they wanted us to
help build a railroad by taxing ourselves,
they said we were interpretations but
when it comes to the whiskey business
they say we are outsiders, and must do
our drinking in town, and pay our fines
there. This is nice, isn't in?
But I wanted to write you about the
farmers meeting. was there, but there
was so much talking and speechifying,
that in fact never got either beginning
or end of it. couldn't tell whether it
was farmers meeting or meeting of
ali sorts. There seemed to be such a
general mixing up, that it was impossible
for one uninforlned to find out ANYTHING
about it.
Now, Mr.. Editor, am farmer-at
any rate I cultivate the soil-and want
TO know how all this fuss and noise is
ever going 10 benefit the farmers? Will
it make oar produce any higher? Will
it diminish the price of what we buy !?
Will it lessen the rate of interest we pay
on money? Will it put our property
assessments for taxation on an equal and
just footing with Edgefe!d and other
Counties? Will it diminish the pre-
MUM we pay for credit, for the meat
and bread and clothes we purchase? Or

The Republicans are determined to
capture the next Presidency, and to
assist them in this purpose the National
Republican calls upon the Union League
to prepare for the removal of 10000
male negroes fiom Mississippi to Ten
nessee, 10000 to Missouri, 10000 to
West Virginia and 5000 to Florida. IT
this plan should succeed, the Republican
might see those States go Democratic
still, for sometimes the negroes are per-
suaded t. vote the Democratic ticket. 1t
just depends on how fascinating the
Democrats of Tennessee, Missouri,
Florida and West Virginia, can make
themselves.
