The reported lynching of a white
man in Pickens County by negroes, for
an alleged outrage on colored girl,
which resulted in the death of the
girl, is but natural. We do not favor
lynch law, but the man who is guilty
OF this ofense should receive summary
Justice whether the ofense be against
white or colcred, and whether the Of
fender be white or black. The trouble
with lynch law in such cases is thai.
amidst the heat and passion of offended
justice, it is possible that an innocent
man might be taken up and made to
suffer. Of course it is always best to
let the law take its course, and let JUS
tice be given by the Courts.

French Sateens = and in
the best of this seasons pat
terms, IS cents.
In its primitive state French
Sateen is nothing more than
a gray cotton cloth, and, in
addition to the square weave
there is a diagonal thread
thrown in, giving the twilied
effect. The quality of cotton
is the finest that nature pro-
duces. The cloth is bleached
by chemical process the face
is passed rapidly over a red
hot cylinder, giving the sur
face an extraordinary smooth
ness. The material is then
ready for printing. Previous
to this the designers submit
patterns in pencil drawings to
the warehouses in Paris. The
designs selected are engraved
on copper rollers, through
which the plain cloth is passed;
a different roller being made
for each color in the pattern.
The next processes are wash
ing, drying, stiffening and fold
ing. At the end of each sea-
son all the copper engravings,
with the exception of a few
staple figures, are destroyed
and new ones made. This is
why each season shows so
many novelties.
The American Sateens, al
though not equal to the
French, are excellent stuffs
and cost less, our prices rang
ing from II "a to IS cents.

who Is sigourneye

Several days ago the RECORD UNION
printed q dispatch from Albany, y. Y.
giving an account of the movements of
one George Sigourney, who was said to be
on his way home TO Sacramento after a
wedding tour of six years. He is reported
to be the son of wealthy gentleman liv-
ing in this city and claims to have spent
about $4,000 in his travels. A diligent
inquiry fails to disclose any person in this
city by the name of Sigourney who fills
the description of the father of the traveller
as given in the dispatch. The probability
is that the whole story is fake" or that
the reporter at Albany has been duped.
