A Collision on The Rail.

A collision between the Charleston
bound Augusta passenger train, Con-
ductor Webb, and an outward bound
freight train, Capt. Goodwin, occurred
about one quarter Of q mile this side Of
Sineaths Station, few minutes after 6
o'clock Yesterday morning. The usual
place Of meeting is at Sineath's and the
accident is probably owing to faulty
timepiece in the hands Of one Of the
conductors. The passenger train people
claim to have been on time, with the
right of way. The freight train people
evidently thought the same thing. and
came on with full head Of steam. AL,
hands on both engines jumped into the
water when they saw the accident in
evitsble, the engineer of the passenger
train reversing his engine first, however.
The resul. was wreck. The passenger
engine being at reverse, drew itself
out Of the wreck, it's fore-wheels off the
rails, smokestack gone, and its entire
front badly battered, when its engineer
quickly boarded and stopped her.
The engine Of the freight train
suffered by far the most injury. Its
forewheels were driven under its fire.

diagonaily across the track. The tender
was jerked completely from the track
and thrown over on its side, the first box

noipjury, except.to few erossties, done
to the track. and nobody was hurt

The Cotton Planters, Crisis.

The false idea, the great error, OF the
Southern farmer is that the business of
the farmer is to produce some leading
money crop M the object, all other crops
being only subsidiary to the money
crop-necessary evils or drawbacks.
This error has taken such deep hold on
the minds of the majority Of Southern
farmers that it seems to hare been born
in them in eact, it is largely an inheri-
tance. Merchants, mechanics and pro-
fessionai men strive by their brains and
theirs arts to gain money with which to
buy the comforts and necessaries, and,
as they may be able the Injuries of life.
The farmer need take no such round
about methods to secure supply of the
necessaries and comforts, and many Of
the Injuries. He may 60, and by all
means ought to go, direct to the first
sourcc--mother earth.
For twenty years we have been fol-
lowing our ignis .fatuus, the hope OF
getting rich by cotton planting. Indeed,
for the last few years many farmers
have been glad to make both ends meet,
and have despaired of attaining com.
pctence. Something must be done. The
present, state of things cannot always
continue. Il

Bacon Va. Shakespear.
Augusta Chronicle.l

We consider that Dr.. Lipscomb has
effectually dispelled the illusion-if
there ever was an illusion-that Lord
Bacon had inspired or created any of
the Shakespeareun dramas. The subject
was hardly s'natioasl issuer and few
scholars have given their. serious time
to its consideration. It has afforded =
theme for ingenious theorists to advance
or to refute and has given the material
for no end of philosophical conceits, but
the value of the allegation as literary
position is untenable. *
Lord Bacon, SO far as we know, had
no dramatic power. He was a fine
talker and jester, but the purely judi
cial caste of his mind and the peculiar
methods of his reasoning made his cali
bre and his creations widely differ
ent from those of William Shakes.
peare.
The latter wore the mantle and en-
ploycd the method Of Aristotle, whose
school Bucon spent his life in hating and
supplanting. Strange it is that no light
from the Novum O,gunum breaks
out in any Of the tragedies or sonnets.
AS Dr. Lipconb delares, Shakespeares
power lay in interpreting moral and
mental laws: Bacon's cxcrted it.
self in interpreting the laws Of physi-
cal nature. Each was a master in his
line, but it has hardly been given
to mortal man to be transcendent in
both.
Shakespeare is more than myth.
The plays which he wrote, which he re-
wrote, which he copied, created, revised
and adapted, may have been, many Of
them, woven around plots and plans
furnished by stage manuscripts and old
translations of many literatures, but tho
stamp of the playwright and scene shifter
is dis distinctive and his manipulation
has been strong enough to leave The
'"ries indisputedly and royalty Shakes

1t is reflection alike upon Shake
speare and upon Bacon to say that ths.
latter was the author of the plays
upon the one to suppose that he should
have stolen so great crown ;; upon the
other, that should have been ashnm-
ed to own, SO great product of his
brain. The burden Of proof is still
upon the objectors to break the will
which bcqueathes to the fame of William
Shakespeare the glory which has enob-
bled England's literature, as her admiral
ty has enriched her commerce, and
which has shed upon all languages,
the splendor and the witchery. Of her

and paid duty, but this is little better
than a..subterfuge.
Democratic equality requires that all
exporters shall have returned to them
the whole increase in the cost of
the materials and instruments used
in their industry. caused by the tariff.
This applies to agricultural products
as we'll as to manufactures, and it
applies to both as truly as to refined
sugar.
When the whole of the American peo-
pie demand their rights under the pro-
tective system, not only to be protected
from foreign competition in the home
market, but to be also protected from
such tariff taxes as place them at dis
advantage in selling their surplus pro-
ducts in foreign markets, the argument
will have arrived at logical conclusions
where the most stupid will understand
it.
Some Of my friends find fault with
free traders who are found advocating
some special protective tariff. think
such fault findining is unjust. Mr.. Tren-
holm has been accused Of inconsistency
because, being an aowded free trader
he advocates high tariff on rice. In
my opinion Mr.. Trenholm should have
gone much further. He should also
have advocated drawbac on exports
of cotton. Of course, as free trader he
knows perfectly we'll that the great rice
producers Of the East cannot compete
with South Carolina in cotton produc-
ton and would be very glad to exchange
rice for cotton cloth and he knows, also,
that the labor employed in the rice
swamps could easily be transferred to
the cotton fields, but we arc under the
regime oe what is called 'sprotection"
and he is completely justified in de-
manding equal rights as an American
citizen.
There are two ways to obtain an over
throw Of an unnatural, illogical systen.
lone is to sstSsk ltHnd the other is 70
extend it and push It TO logical conolu-
sions. II the people can be easily in
structed in the truth. the first is obvious
ly the best; if they are successfully
misled and an ''object lesson seems in
despensable, the latter should be adopt.
ed without hesitation and pushed per-
sistently. A true doctrine has nothing
to fear from such nm ordeal a doctrine
that will not bear such a test is obvious
ly false.
I have grave doubts rs to whether tie
protective system will ever be over
thrown in this country in any other
way than by extending it equally to all.
Its weakest point is it's utter inconsis-
tency with democratic equality. 1t is
only by limiting its application to few
articles that its evil influence can be
successfully concealed from the peo-
pie.
If Mr.. Morrison would itsert in his
new tariff bill an article giving draw
brack on all exports. equal to the in
crease in the cost Of production caused
by the tariff, he would probably bring
the tariff question home to the under
standing Of his constituents more effec-
tually than in any other way.

TEMPERANCE IN OHIO.

On the second page of the present
issue, we print two articles on the
temperance question in Ohio, and the
recently enacted "Dow law" of that
| State. The first of these articles is
from one of our o=n correspondents,
and the second is from recent number
of the Independent, an article by Rev.
DIR. Richie, of Cincinnati, giving a
succinct statement of the present con-
dition of the temperance reform in the
State, with brief review of the legis-
lation of past years on the liquor ques-
ton.
DR.. Beane's article is successful in
clearly pointing out the weakness of
the present "Dow law" and in pre-
senting the views of certain section
of temperance reformers with refer
ence to the law. The Dow enactment,
as is well known, is substantially the
old Scott law, and not many of its
friends will presume to say that it is
such a law as advanced temperance
reformers will approve. One of its vir-
tues, however, as expressed by con-
temporary, is in knocking off "the knobs
on the old law which were utilized by
the courts in overturning it," and pro-
visions by which prohibition can be
secured in certain localities. The local
option feature, as our correspondent
explains, is limited to municipal cor
porations, but under this clause every
city, town, and incorporated village in
the State, may prohibit the traffic. The
Scott law, as we understand, gives this
right to the extent of prohibiting sale
and porter houses, and places of habit
ual resort for tipping and intemper-
ance." The Dow law adds this, land
other places where intoxicating liquors
are sold at retail for any purpose, or in
any quantity" 1t would seem that
under this law, there is an opportunity
for securing prohibition in the places
where it is certainly needed the most,
and where there is field for the exer-
else of all the effort that temperance
workers can bring to bear in behalf of
the principle for which they are contend
ing. In the old anti slavery days, it
Was deemed a matter of rejoicing when
any part of the national domain was
won for freedom to the defeat of the
slave oligarchy. In a similar manner,
temperance workers should rejoice over
the triumph of the principle of prohibit
ton, wherever it can be established,
and where the public conscience can be

Prof. Swing is entitled to honorable
mention for the emphatic words he has
recently spoken in regard to the gambling
element at the Washington Park races in
this city. 1t appears that the gamblers
ply their vocation very freely at these
"high toned races and the matter is
rapidly assuming a very scandalous
character. Prof. Swing says:
81 am reliably informed that the Washing
ton Park club is worse than agambling house,
for people who invest their money ON the
Washington Park races are literally cheated
out of it by the gamblers who eongregate
there under the very noses of the authorities.
If young man is DESTROYS of being ruined
it will not take many days at the Washington
Park races to make him defaulter and an
outcast from society. In open disregard of
the law, which expressly forbids betting on
races of any kind, these so called book max
ers, these scum of the earth, who would not
be allowed at any park, except where they
now are. pocket money which has been taken
by innocent young men from their employ
ers and who foolishly bet in order to make
good their previous defalcations.

he is Incidentally lost. The question should

themselves the number of young men who

THE trial of the anarchists is now
in it's fourth week and has not yet be-
gun. The paradox is curious one,
but it represents the actual facts. The
trial began with the effort to secure a
jury and thus far I'll persons have been
examined and only eight have been ac-
cepted to sit on the case. We presume
the necessary twelve will be ultimately
secured as Cook county has yet several
hundred thousand people who have not
been summoned. "Opinions," held or
expressed, in regard to the anarchists,
and the bloody work on the night of
May 4th, are the obstacles in the way.
1t is possible that the necessary number
of jurors may be secured the present
week, and then the trial will begin ac-
cording to law and evidence. 1t is the
preliminary Opinions" that are now
troublesome to the public wishing a
speedy settlement of the case; the final
"opinion'' of the jury may be still
worse for the anarchists.

THE REV. DIR. DANIEL CURRY, of
New York, the well known leading
Methodist editor and preacher, is quot
ed by the Hartford Daily Nelos as
squarely declaring, in the late Church
Congress, that "the historical creeds''
the Old Testament Declarations
''are all materialistic grossly mate
REALISTIC, if not barbaric, Sin form, Ian
guage and manifest conceptions respect
ing the future life" These concep-
lions of God and of human duty and
destiny, remarks the NelcS, may have
been all that could be expected in such
an age, of the people that were more
directly concerned or addressed; but, as
DIR. Curry frankly says: 1.-THE once pop
ular notions respecting the resurrec-
ton of the dead, and the character of
the life everlasting, which those creeds
manifestly teach, have ceased to COM
mand the assent of the great body of
intelligent believers. This is only
another testimony to the general drift
of opinion touching the necessity of a
Testatement of once popular doctrines.
It is this restatement that orthodoxy
now aims at; in another generation 1t
NAV be far enough advanced to repudi-
ate many OF the doctrines 1t would now,
in this way, preserve.

glish politics. Mr.. Gladstone bids fair
to be regarded in this generation as the
bird that will need to live on the wave

the English electors is emphatically
against the premier's plan of Home-rule
for Ireland. 1t is estimated that the
opposition in the newly elected House

hood Of 100. There is a. day after to-
day, however, and no one understands
this any better than the defeated pre-

cause which is great enough to endure
temporary defeat and to remain as the
one supreme question of English poll
tics until it is settled right. There are
stirring times ahead in England, and 1t

talents to hold together the various

DEATH OF HON. ALFRED KNOWLES.

With pain we are compelled to record
this week the death of that well known
member of our Gslesburg church and
lifelong friend of Lombard University,
Judge Alfred Knowles. He passed away
on Friday afternoon of last week, July 8,
aged seventy-seye years. 1t will be re-
membered that at the recent meeting OF

resigned his position as member on &C
count of failing health and advancing

trustee, for seventeen years secretary,
and four years president of the Board.
The resolutions adopted at the late COM
mencement testify to the high place he
held in the esteem of his associates.

MANY of our Universalist parishes
have executed instruments of transfer
of their church property to the State
Convention to which they belong. Ex-
perience gives convincing testimony
that these parishes have exercised wis
dom in so doing. And yet it is almost
impossible, in many instances, to get
our parishes to see that this is the right
thing for them to do. Ignorance OF the
plan proposed and false independence
are the chief obstacles which stand in
the way. When parish vests the title
of its property in the State Convention,
it does not cut its elf off from the prop
er control of the property. 1t sim
ply secures itself against the alienation
of said property and the possibility of
encumbrance by MORTGAGE serious
source of embarrassment, and in many
cases fatal transaction. The system
is altogether one-sided matter, allodyS
TO the advantage of the parish. The Con-
vention simply exerci ,es the authority
of a guardian in times of emergency;
and when the property is vested in the
Convention it cannot be sold for secular
purposes or in any way alienated from
the purposes of a Universalist church.
The Convention, it should be remem-
bered, re-conveys the property to the
parish, with conditions in the deed COW
ering the above points.
