Afruid of the South.
1Charleston World

An Englishman who has been in
this city for some time, remarked the
other day that before he came to Char
lesion he thought of providing himself
with pistol and bowie knife against
a time of need. He had heard that the
people of South Corolina were blood
thirsty and dangerous, and for while
he would not venture out on the streets
at night. He did not care to be set
upon by foot pads and water the street
with his gore.
His impressions were gained from
conversations he had held with the
Northernes, whose opinions of the
South, especially South Carolina, were
formed by the sensational kilograms
they read, sent by correspondents, who,
for the sake of few coppers, vllilty
their own people by scandalous tales
and "big sensations" The Englislman
has been in Charleston six months,
and he only intended to stay few
weeks. He said that he never was so
agreeably surprised in his life as he
was when he discovered the true i'll
wardness Of the people of the South.

A CLEVELAND LETTER.
He Writes to the Maryland Tariff Reform
Club.

BALTIMORE, June 13.-The Secre-
tary of the Maryland Tariff Reform
club has received the following letter
from ex-president Cleveland, under
date Of June llth:
"Iour letter informing me of my
election as an honorary member of the
Maryland Tariff Reform cub is re-
ceived. l accept the courtesy thus
rendered me with thanks. The objects
and purpose Of the club, asset forth in
the declaration accompanying your
letter have my hearty sympathy and
support, and I believe their accom-
plishment absolutely essential to the
greatest prosperity of our people and
the highest development Of our coun-
try. You must, however, permit me
to say that as far as parties are con-
cerned, my hope and reliance for the
better condition of things are upon the
Democratic party organization, which
in my opinion cannot be true to its
traditions and ancient crecds without
q hearty and earnest espousal Of the
cause to which your club is devoted.

The Sabbath.

The New York Sabbath Committee
have sent out petition, already unan-
imously signed, requesting
"That,exceptin cases ofneccesity, the
conductors, drivers, and other employ
ees of your roads be given one days
rest in every seven, and that this rest
be so distributed IS to secure to every
man the half of every alternate Sum
day." .:
This petition isaddressed to the off,
GERS and directors of the street railroad
companies of New York-whether
city or State we are not clear. It is
wise to give this direction to the first
instance, but it ought not to stop here.
If the corporations do not regard it, we
hope that the politicians will address
themselves to the Legislature. A Sab
bath-lover, who desires to secure even a
part of the Sabbath for his church or
his family, has no chance to secure it,
single-handed, against Sabbath-disre-
garding corporation; and if the officers
and directors cannot be induced to
make the provisions asked for in this
petition, we hope that the Legislature
will be asked to interfere in behalf Of
the overworked men. The law linn
iting the hours of labor has been sue
cessfully enforced; a law similarly linn
iting the days of labor would be equally
capable of enforcement.

Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-

imperfect hearing, and when it IS en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor

troyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by catarrh, which is moth

DEATH OF DIR. ANDREW SIMONDS.
Remarkable Career of n Successful Business
Alan-School Teacher, Physician and
Financier-Probably the Richest
Man in the State.
Especial to the Bcgister.

! CHARLESTON, June I2.-In the death
of Dr.. Andrew Simonds, one of the
most conspicuous figures in the history
of post belluDa South Carolina has passed
away. DR.. Simonds had been a con-
iirmed dyspeptic nearly all his life. A
few days ago he was attacked with in
1iammation of the bowels, which rem
dered q surgical operation necessary.
| This resulted in his death at O'Clock
to-day.
DR.. Sinond's history is a romance.
He was u native of Abbeville County,
and a connection of John G. Calhoun,
his mother being Jane Hamilton Cal
houn. In 1860 he married a daughter
of John A. Calhoun. He began life as
a school teacher in the West at the age
of is years. He had never opened a
Latin book in his life when he was
called upon to teach Latin. He learned
it, and kept just ahead Of his pupils as
long as he taught them the classics.
While in the West he boarded with a
physician, from whom he succeeded in
getting himself qualified to practice
medicine. Finally he abandoned both
professions and turned his attention to
mercantile pursuits. In 1850 be retired
from business with a fortune.
About this time he entered the bank
ing business. Tie State Legislature
had decided to establish branch Bank
Of the State in the upper section, the
parent bank being in Charleston. The
work was entrusted to him, and he es-
tablished the bank in Abbeville. 1t
was at his suggestion that the moneys
and assets of the mother bank IN
Charlestc II were sent to him at the
breaking out of the war in 1861. He
saved them all and returned them to the
State in the fall of 1865, without the
loss of single dollar.
1t was after the war, however, that
his remarkable career began. He Or
ganized the First National Bank of the
city in 1865, was elected president, and
filled the office till his death. At the
expiration Of the banks charter, few
years ago, the stock was worth many
times its par value. a new charter
was obtained and DR.. Simonds of late
has run the bank almost alone.
He is said to have been the richest
man in the State. He was a firm be-
lever and large investor in United
States per cent. bonds. It was only
within the past few years that he went
into real estate. He was vice-president
of the National Bankers Association,
and 4 frequent contributor to the
columns ofjournals devoted to finances.
The value of his estate cannot be cor
rectly stated, but it is thought reaches
largely into the millions.
His eldest son, Andrew Simonds, jr.,
married a popular New Orleans belle,
Miss Daisy Brux. There are two other
sons aid a daughter.

4 Narrow Escape.
1Manning Times.

The Rev. 4. E. Terrence, the colored
Presbyterian pastor of this place, re-
turned last Saturday from New York,
where he had been in attendance on
the General Assembly Of the Northern
Presbyterian Church. Mr.. Terrence
had made al engagement to deliver a
Sunday-school lecture in JohnStown,
Pa, last Sunday a week ago, and was
on the train, on his way to Johnstown,
that fearful Saturday Of the Johns
town disaster. He expected to go ca
the train that was wrecked, but did go
on a second train running a few miles
behind this train. He got within five
miles of JohDstown, when the conduc-
tor of his train received telegram,
advising him of the flood.

Horns OF a Dilemma.

4 queer incident about the adventure
of the famous Henry Clay with a
Washington goat is fresh from the lips
of general of the army. He says:
~ think I can tell you a new story
about Henry Clay which has not been
printed. | was boy at the time.
Clay and party of Congressman were
walking down Pennsylvania avenue on
their way from the capitol. In those
days Congress generally adjourned
about three o'clock in the afternoon
much earlier than it does now. We
boys were playing with a goat owned
by Goldman Nailor, the father of the
Nailor brothers.
"Well, Mr.. Clay came along in the
most dignified fashion, but there was
evidently something about him which
attracted the goats attention. With a
bound the goat made for Mr.. Clay; but
the latter saw him coming, and ap-
preciated the danger. We yelled,
Look outr But that was unnecessary,
for Mr.. Clay siezed the goat by both
horns and held him.
That was comparatively easy mat
ter; but it was an open question as to
whether Mr.. Clay had the goat or the
goat him. AS long as Mr.. Clay held
on he was safe enough, but he knew
enough about goats to know that the
moment he let go he would be butted,
sure as death. There were various sug-
gestious made by the Congressman pre-
sent, but none of them seemed to suit
the exigencies Of the occasion. Finally
Mr.. Clay appealed to the boys. One lit
tie urchin stepped forward and said, in
sharp, shrill voice:
Mr.. Clay turn his head to the
right and run like blazes.'
"Clay obeyed the instruction, and an
instant later was safe in a store. The
goat went bounding down the avenue.
When Mr.. Clay came out of the store,
he called the urchin up to him, and
patting him on the head said:
"'My son, that was the best advice I
ever had.'n

Il This What Ais You?

Do you have dull, heavy headache,
obstruction of the nasal passages, dis
charges falling from the head into the
throat, sometimes profuse. watery, and
acrid, at others, thick, tenacious, muco-
us, purulent, bloody and putrid; eyes
weak, watery, and infiamed; ringing in
the ears, deafness, hacking or coughing
to clear the throat, cXpectoration Of
offensive matter, together with scabs
from ulcers; voice changed and nasal
twang; breath offensive; smell and
taste impaired; is there Il sensation of
dizziness, with mental depression, a
hacking cough and general debility?
If you have all, or any considerable
number Of these symptoms, you are
suffering from Nasal Catarrh. The
more complicated your disease has be-
come, the greater the number and di-
versity of symptoms. Thousands of
cases annually, without manifesting
half of the above symptoms, result i'll
consumption, and end III the grave.
No disease is so common, more decep-
tive and dangerous, or less understood,
or more ursuccessfu!ly treated by
physicians. The manufacturers of DR..
Sage's Catarrh Remedy, offer, in good
faith, q reward OF $500 for case of this
disease which they cannot cure. The
Remedy is sold by druggists, at only 50
