FATAL ACCIDENTAL correspondent gives
the following account OF a distressing accident !:
George Miller was instantly killed at Gran
berry Mills, on Wednesday, by falling from a
wagon load of canned goods. The roads were
very bad and the driver, Geo. Elliott, drove on
one side ol the road, when one of the rear
wheels broke. Miller, who was on the load,
fell underneath, his back and one rib being
broken. He died almost instantly.
Justice Cronin summoned jury of inquest,
composed of D. w. Taylor, j. IL. Emmord,
Jas. w. Malcolm, Louis I. Michael, Charles
Osborn, j. w. Wells ". II. Wilson, James
Amiar, Alfred Mitchell, Richard Holloway and
W. X. McCardell. Verdict, death by accidental
breaking of wagon, and censuring the county
authorities for not repairing the road at this
point
The evidence showed that there was no regu.
lar road mender from New Market 10 Short
Lane and that the late snow drifts were not re-
moved at all, remaining until they melted, and
forcing passers to use the fields long after other
portions of the road were made passabic.

- Col. R. E. Bowen, of the Carolina,
Cumberland Gap & Chicago railroad
Company, was in the city last night on
his way home from, Abbeville, where be
fhad been on important business. The
business related to the contract with the
construction company now at work on
the line, and consisted in the issuing OF
1851 900 of bonds of the road, to be
delivered to the construction company
on the completion of the line between
Aiken and Edgefeld. The contractors
promise, Col. Bowen said, to have trains
running the line in March. As soon as
the information of the issuing of the
bonds is received at the company's New
York headquarters, the 60 pound steel
rails to be used on the road will be
shipped. Col. Bowen is deseryedly happy
at the prospect of this partial completion
of scheme which he has worked and
labored for through years when nobody
else seemed to be interested in it.-Greeis-

Capital and Money.

Mr.. EDITOR: Ordinarily the terms
are Synonymous, but custom has affixed
to each very different meaning, and in
discussing the question of finances, it is
we'll to observe this difference. Capital
is money applied in some productive
capacity, while money, in the abstract,
represents the employment of capital in
the marts of the world in speculative
capacity. Like interest, it represents no
productive industry, but exhausts itself
in increasing its own rewards by spec.
ulation in bonds and stocks, and too fre.
quently trenches upon the domain of
speculating upon the necessaries of life,
to the detriment of all honest producers
and consumers. If there be any force in
this difference between the use of money
as money, and the use of money as capi.
tai, then it follows that capital is the
adjunct of labor, because it gives en-.
ployment to all useful labor. Hence,
there should be no quarrel between labor
and capital thus employed, but rather a
homogeniety of feeling. That in the
prosecution of extensive enterprises
there should be differences between
employers and employees is quite natu-
raj, but in the adoption of the co-opera.
tive principle and arbitration, there
need be no permanent hinderance to the
progress of industrial pursuits. So then,
as between capital and labor, I ere ought
to be no conflict, because they are each
inter dependent on the other; and both
are equally interested in such financial
policy as will give to the people per-
fectly safe medium of exchange, and in
sufficient quantities to facilitate the rapid
exchange of commodities in the business
world. And this brings US to the con-
clusion that our politics, in national
sense, should partake more and more of
business principles, and less of partizan
feeling. L. d. 4.

A South Carolinian in Florida.

Mr.. EDITOR: 1t occurred to me that
the experiences and impressions of
CaroliDian in Florida might be ofinterest
to your readers. I reached here on the
9th inst, and have had FIRE one or two
mornings. Roses, verbina, saliva, jim
son weed, &C., are blooming in the yard.
We have eaten fresh English peas, cab,
bage and beets. We have seen the gar
deners sowing beans and cucumbers. At
Orange lake, the orange trees are bloom
ing. Here we saw one little garden with
25OOO cabbage plants set out; some of
the heads weighing from 8 to 6 pounds.
About this lake is the home of the
orange. Our road passed through an
original forest of orange trees which have
been budded, and which are now bearing
thousands of boxes of the sweet orange.
We saw thousands and thousands of culls
lying all over the ground. I thought
how delighted crowd of Anderson boys
would be to go through that grove and
eat up the delicious fruit that the gath.
erer has thrown away as of no account.
The residence of Mr.. Samson is an
attractive feature of the scenery around
the lake. 1T is said to havecost Sic, 900;
to have "a rooms; to be finished as ele.
gantly as a Pullman, in curly pine and
other woods; to use gas, hot and cold
baths, &c. Most of the buildings one
sees are nea attractive, substantial
structures; and indicate the prosperity
Of the country, and the hope Of its future.
We had the pleasure of visit to the
Florida home of Prof. R. A. Proctor, the
celebrated astronomer. he has beau.
tifnl Queen Anne cottage, with ample
verandas, broad halls, unique stair, we'll.
filled library, and elegantly finished
parlor. The Professor had just left for q
lecturing tour in the Northwest; but We
had delightful half hour with his wife
and sister-in.law.
All this section of Florida seems to be
enjoying steady, healthful prosperity and
growth. Yours truly,
J. NJ. LANDER.

The Georgetown Enquirer says that
Sthe newspapers which are denouncing
s'4he administration of our State govern.
sment as extrayagant will perhaps be
s:consoled by the reflection that South
Garolinass expenses for legislation are q
mere sbagatelle, when compared with the
prices paid by some other States for the
making Of their laws. The last session
sof the General Assembly cost about
s$25, 600: The Augusta Chronicle says:
6ssThe Georgia Legislature was in session
tfor over Eve months at an expense to
the State Of nearly $3.50, O,0OO." There is
hardly . State in the Union whose legis.
slative expenses are not, greater than

Sam Jones Answered.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, January 90
Over 1000 women, most of them hand.
some and we'll dressed, occupied the
seats in Priest of Palas hall this morning,
when Sam Jones mounted the platform
His sermon was especially intended fol
wives, and those desirous of securing
good advice were present in full force.
Among other things Jones said:
"How you twist and squeeze your body
to please society. l never heard of q
woman that did not have corns. If there
is one here would like to have her pic.
ture."
Here modest looking young woman
on front seat rose up, and amid stc-'n
of applause from her sisters, stated that
she did not have corns.
For once the only Sam Jones was out
done. He colored and looked as cheap
as it is possible for man to look. After
rubbing his face moment, he recovered
himself and said:
"Well, thank God, in forty years oi
observation I have found one woman
who does not have corns. will be
much obliged if she will furnish me with
her picture"
Then he looked as though he was
doubtful whether he had said the right
thing or got.

: The Adyentists of Battle Creek

The Adventists of Battle Creek,
Michigan, are in a state of great reli.
gious excitement. They believe that
the final consummation of all earthly
matters is close at hand. They have dis.
carded all their jewelry. Recently at q
meeting $4,000 was turned into the
church in cash and $4,000 in jewelry.
The latter will be sold to the ungodly
and the money given to the establishing
of missions in Switzerland, Norway,
England, South Africa and Australia.
On several occasions before these people
have sold their homes for triaing sums
and given the money to the church with
all other personal property. The craze
bids fair to 60 to as great an extent
as have previous ones.
The "Knights Of the Switch took
Baptist preacher, Wesley Meeks, out
of his bed at Stomer, Indiana, the other
night and gave him terrible whipping,
after which he was warned to go to work
and support his family, and allowed to
20 back home.

The Yaledictory of Maj. Murray.

MIR. EDITOR: The excellent valedic-
tory of E. B. Murray, on his retirement
from the editorial control of the INTEL.
L1aENcER, should arrest public attention,
and afford abundant food for reflection.
Here, in closing his editorial career,
after having passed through half q dozen
or more exciting political campaigns, on
careful review of the past, in the light
of quickened conscience, he says to all
with his last goodbye, peace and good
will. The chickering's and animoeities Of
past political campaigns are, on his part,
if we read Alright, buried in the grave of
oblivion, and he extends to all the part
ing hand of friendship and good will.
His political opponents ought to be none
the less generous, and should grasp the
extended hand, and cement a friendship
in the future more lasting than any in
the past. What commentary is this
episode on the chickering's of political
campaigns. Instead of con6ning such
discussions to great political and govern
mental issues, ne too often descend to
the mud and filth of personal vitupera-
tion and abuse, if thereby any advantage
can be obtained over political antago-
mist. And what is worse still, if such a
course warrants political success, too
often public men will not hesitate to
appeal to the baser passions and preju.
dices of the populace. The right of pri-
vate judgment is utterly ignored, and q
man is ostracised and DETAINED for no
other offence than simple difference of
political opinion, when the right of free
thought and free speech is guaranteed in
the magma charta Of American liberty.
Let the parting words Of Maj. Murray, as
he retires from the editorial sanctum,
make deep impression on the minds
and hearts of all, especially the young
men of the country, and inspire the
great principle of tolerance and charity
for all. T. II. R.
