full peril from his business associates and

Of the way or birds.
An interesting society lady of Troy i'm
AGNES that big Newfoundland dog always
accompanies her, walks when she walks,
stops when she stops Il know perfectly
well that it is not there" she says, but l
always see it, and that is what troubles me-
When l go to bed it always lies down

There is a lady who has been a teacher
for the last twelve years i'll the schools of
New York city. and is still so employed,
who imagineS herself a wheelbarrow. Il
know am not a wheelbarrow, OF course,
she says to her physician, DIR. Hammond,
"but that certainly makes no difference
with the appearance and my sensations.
When in school am always whoelbarrow,
and my feet are the handles and my head is
the wheel and | seem TO he trundling my
self down the aisleS and through the halls.
1t is ridiculous aud painful and Notifying,
but, though know it is the result of ner-
vous disease, | cannot shake off the hallucln-
alton"
Mr. w. A. Croffut, journalist and sue
cessful meSmerist, gives me the following
opinion "HallucinatiOnS are evidently
closely akin to dreams. can I'LL any one
of my sensitives full of delusions in Il minute;
can make him think he is Washington or
Grant or Victoria, a peddler, an opera
singer, a teacher of languages, rooster or
a telegraph pole, and can Danish the deu-
sion in two seconds. Now, it seems to me,
that this Authorization is exactly the same
kind as the hallucination of lunatics or the
dreams of those who sleep; the only differ
ence being that the sleeper holds the key OF
dreamland and the operator holds the key
of the similar trance called mesmerism,
while to the permanent trance called in
sanity and the partial trance called mono
mania the key is lost. 1 have wondered if
it might not be possible to recover the lost
key-to often waken the insane from their
dream as somnambulists and mesmerized
are wakened.0 HOWARD FIELDING.

The South Carolina Presbytery.

The Presbytery of South Carolina, compos
ed of the Presbyterian churches In the coun
ties Of Pickens, Oconee, Anderson, Abbeville
Newberry and Edgefield, met In Anderson OF
the evening of Friday, the 9Th instant.
The meeting was an unusually full one, eV
cry minister within the bounds OF the Pres
bytery being present, and nearly every cnufci
being represented by its Elder
The opening sermon was preached BY Key
A. P. Nicholson, and 1T was very forcible
one from the text, "Lengthen thy col DIS, and
strengthen thy stakes"
The first business in order was the election
Of Moderator, and DR.. j. Lowrie Wilson war
chosen 'Tis needless 10 say that he discharg:
ed his duties well, or to add that the Stated
Clerk, the Rev. $. l.. Morris, was fully up 10
the requirements OF his position.
On Saturday morning the Moderator an
nounced the several standing committees
and Presbytcry then got fairly at work. It's
first attention was given 70 nearing nara
ecutive committees. There were, on the
whole, quite gratifying and indicated pro-
gress in the several departments OF church
work. The sessions during the day were
taken up with the consideration Of these mat
ters. In the evening quite an interesting con.
ference was held or Home Missions," al
which several stirring addresses were deliver
ed and good collection taken.
On Sunday forenoon very large congreSa'
tion attended the Presbyterian church to hear
q sermon from the Moderator and the pulplts
Of the Baptist and Methodist churches were
most acceptably filled by DR.. LlDQsay anu
Rev. Mr.. Craig.
4 mass meeting of the Sunday schools OF
the city was held In the afternoon, when we
had good music and good talks. In the eve
ming the other churches were closed, and the
Presbyterian was packed to listen to DIR. Ri'
lev, who made one of his best efforts.
Monday morning found the Presbytery hard
at work receiving, considering and acting on
the reports OF the several standing commit
tees. It was working body, and with very
little speech.making, dispatched much rou'
tine business. To the satisfaction of all "Ev'
olution" occupied but little OF our time.
Mount Carmel was selected as the place fol
the next meeting.
Rev. ]. o. Lindsay, D. D. and S. B. Dendy
ESQ.,, were elected commissioners TO the Gen
erai Assembly soon to convene in Baltimore
On Monday night the Rev. j. f. Forgartie
preached an earnest and thoughtful sermon.
A conference on Foreign Missions was held
and collection take Then, after short
parting address from the Moderator. and q
hearty vote Of thanks to the good people ol
Anderson for their generous and elegant hos
pitality tho Presbytery adjourned. w.

PrafseWOrthy Action.

The public will heartily endorse the action
Of the good people Of Greenwood in deter
mining to put a stop to the Illicit sale OF whis
key in their town. We were not surprised at
their course, though we were expecting the
violators Of the law to be indicted, as we had
heard intimations to that effect. The wiser
course. however, has been pursued, though
the conviction of violators Of the law In this
respect seldom misearries.
II the schools at Greenwood are to prosper
and II the good name of the town is to be
maintained. the law should be respected.
or course Abbeville has not yet been put up
on trial, but we have no hesitation in pledg-
ing the public that there is no man now in
business here who would set up O shop in
which he would sell whiskey in violation oi
law.

doctors are sometime mistaken and OCCASION

Let the People Have Showing
Don't Ask them to Accept Ev-
erything ON Faith.

Elsewhere we publish law under which
the people will be asked to vote tax for the
road between Abbeyille and Edgeheld.
While we think that the best lawyer at Alb
beville wouldn't undertake to give Legal
opinion as to what is the exact meaning o.
Section 8, and while we believe that nothing
short Of infallible Court would attempt TO de-
fine what is meant in that Section by the use
Of the word renewal" we are perfectly Ger.
tain that no man living can find the least
shadow OF q safeguard for the conflding citi
zen who may vote away his money.
We suggest, therefore, that the election be
postponed until proper law shall be framed
which will protect the citizen, while making
pledges o. his property to corporation.
/. Authorize the citizen TO vote the tax.
Q. Make It unlawful for the railroad to get
any part OF the money until the conditions,
which may be named in the laac shall be com.
piled with.
8. Return the tax on the railroad to the re-
spective townships until the taxpayer is re.
imbursed.
4. State definitely what year the amount
OF our assessment Is to be ascertained. VIII
the levy be made on the property as assessed
for taxation In the year that we vote the tax
or the next year after the railIoad has com.
piled with Its part Of the agreement?
Is an assessment to be made for that espe'
cial purpose, or is the railroad to choose the
assessment for the year which will yield to il
the largest amount Of money.
AS the paying of taxes is a matter involv-
Ing the moneyed interests Of the people, is II
unreasonable them to withhold thei1
votes for q tax until a law Is pre-
sented that will at least guarantee faithful
performance by the railroad Of their part o1
the agreement. Tax money should be sacred
ly guarded.

John G. Vance the Lucky Man.
Shreveport Duilp Dem


Last night the editors Of the Democrat re-
ceived the following personal dispatch from
Washington:
To Messrs. Porter e. Puckettc, Editors DEM
ocrdt:
"WAsHINGToN, d. c., March 2.-The pres
ident will appoint John Vance surveyor of
the port of New Orleans. The delegation has
agreed on him."
This will prove gratifying news to the many
friends of ex-senator Vance in this section
Of the State. For many years hr. Vance rep
resented this district composed of BOSser,
Bienville, Claiborne and Webster, in the State
Senate, and his course while in that body
met with the warm endorsement OF his con-
stituents, as we'll as of honest and worthy
men everywhere He was active, yigilant,
capable and incorruptible, and no People ever
had their interests more zealously guarded
than the citizens Of his senatorial district by
John c. Vance.
we congratulate Mr.. Vance upon tho honor
shortly to be bestowed upon him. He richly
deserves any reward the Democratic party
can confer upon O true and tried veteran, for
he has served his people early and late with
force, vigor and earnestneSs, never counting
the personal cost. We are glad that the
Louisiana delegation centred upon him, for
ne will fill the position TO the satisfaction of
all.
