Mr.. Pearson's Meeting at Rock Hill.
1Rock Hill Herald.

Mr.. Pearson left for Tarboro THUS
day afternoon: -,.
As the result OF the meeting about
43O professed conversions and many
luke-warm church members were re-
awakened.
The money collected to defray ex-
penses aggregated S7Sl.3S. OF this
amount S575.25 was subscribed by the
people of Rock Hill before the meeting
commenced; the balance S2O5.63, was
collected from the congregations. VI

Mr.. Pearson, leaving 1881 .3o to pay the
expenses.
There were seventy-nine accessions
to the various churches at Rock Hill

Acquittal OF Young Scharfer.

CHARLESTON, S. c., Oct. 19.-Fred
Scharfer, the white boy whose careless
handling of firearms came so near
causing race war at Mt. Pleasant IN
August last, was to-day tried in the
Berkeley court on the charge of muir
der.
The woman's dying statement, in
which she said that she never had
hard feelings with the accused, but
that he shot her Intentionally, was
ruled out by motion of the counsel of
the accused, and the jury returned a
verdict of not guilty. There was some
commotion among the negroes IN court
on the announcement of the verdict,
but Scharfer was finally broagl : safely
to the city.
The evidence showed that the shoot
ing was accidental, but there seems to
be no doubt that the boy was exceed
ingly careless, not to say reckless, ID
handling firearms, and public opinion
is that be should be punished in some
Way.

Death Caused by False News
Lancaster Ledger.


A letter from the Sheriff of Colds
boro, y. e., to Sheriff Hunter at this
place, states that the mother of Mr.. }.
II. Harrison, who was tried at the re-
cent term of court here, dropped dead
on hearing that her son was convicted
of murder and sentenced to be hung.
The letter states also that Harrison's
father was in great distress, and the.
Sheriff wrote 10 our Sheriff to ask the
favor of his informing him officially as
to Harrison's sentence,
The news which reached the mothers
ears was of course false, Harrison was
only tried for an assault and battery of
a high and aggravated nature, and was
and sentenced to three months inn
prisonment in the penitentiary, or pay
a fine of $50.

A SOLEMN FARCE.

Last Sunday was the day set apart
by the convention Of colored clergy
men at Indianapolis as day Of fasting
and prayey1forthe down trodden and
oppressed eolored people Of the South.
Pie day was generally observed in
Chicago and other western cities.
To any one actually acquainted with
the circumstances and condition of the
colored man in the South, this is high
ly amusing. Ofall laboring classes the
world over, We believe that the colored
man in the South is the most fortu-
nate and happy. He is never out Of
work. He is never in want. He has
more friends and champions than any
man in the world. He is better pro-
vided for, and has a far easier time,
than the white laboring man at the
North or anywhere else.
The Greenville News we'll says: "In
our view the people in whose behalf
prayers and special observances should
be devoted are the Southern whites" !"
To fair-minded observer it seems that
a far more appropriate observance
would have been day of rejoicing and
thanksgiving for the numerous bless
ings which heaven has bestowed upon
the colored man in the South in the
last quarter of a century.
Freedom, prosperity, citizenship in a
great and mighty republic, the oppor-
tunity ofeducation and enlightenment,
mental and moral, have come to the
black man within the last few years,
while our doors have been shut in the
face Of the yellow man, anda great and
fertile territory which he once called
his own, has been wrested by fraud and
violence from the red man.
Truly the 'scolered brother" in the
South is the pet of the century, and
the favorite of heaven. What no white
race, or race ofany other color has at
tained without centuries of struggle, he
has reached without effort on his part,
and by the sufferings and sacrifices Of
others.
If any people have cause to be thank
full and grateful it is the colored people
of the South.

DON'T LET 1T WORRY YOU.

It is amusing to watch the solicitude
( of the News and Courier lest Gov. Hill
should fall into the error of supposing
that his reception in Atlanta means
anything politically.
Certainly if Gov Hill reads the News
and Courier, and trusts to it as reha-
Bile interpreter of every act Of the At
lanta people, and every utterance Of the
Atlanta Constitution, he is in no dan
ger of becoming vain and over-confi-
dent as to his political prospects in the
South.
The News and Courier thinks that
the ovation with which Gov. Hill has
been everywhere received, and espe-
eially in Atlanta, is only, the exuber-
ance of Southern hospitality, and care
fully collates editorials from the At
lanta Constitution to show that what
that paper says is. only conventional
politeness towards an honored guest,
ana INuSG IO9 DS COl9li oSo w AA-N~1>-
that Gov. Hill can he thought of as a
presidential possibility SO long as Mr..
Cleveland still lives.
Whether the News and Courier Is
right or not, as to the sentiment IN
Georgia at this time, there is no telling
what chances and changes may occur
before 1892. Mr.. Cleveland, We are sat-
isded, is very acceptable to the large
majority OF Democrats, and has a
strong hold on the country. But GER
tain it is that after him comes Gov.
David Hill of New York, and it is not
at all improbable that by 1892 it may be
found that Gov. Hill is the man after
all.
Either Cleveland or Hill will make
glorious leader under whom to march
to victory in 1892

Death of a Remarkable Man.
.Sneeial to the News and Courier.

Especial to the News and Courier.
GREENvILLE, October 17.-Mr. Hahn
died here to-day from an internal in
jury sustained in an accident on Satur-
day, caused by horse running away
and throwing him out of buggy The,
accident was not at first regarded as
serious. Mr.. Hahn was one Of the
most remarkable men in this city. He
came here from Germany and in 1858
he lost his eyesight and one arm by
the premature explosion Of blast.
Although blind and rendered apparent
ly helpless, he had accumulated a for
tune, variously estimated at from S4O,-
900 to $4,000, owning a number of the
best business houses in the city and
other property. When he lost his sight
and his arm he was poor man. He
was well known, as Blind Hahn.

Next Tuesday night is the time fixed
for meeting Of the citizens of New
berry to take action in the matter of
graded schools. This matter is impor-
tant and should receive the careful
consideration of every citizen. It is to
be hoped that the meeting will be full
one, and that every one will come, pre-
pared by careful thought on the sub
iect, to act tinte!ligently.

Colored Prayer Day in Chicago.

CHICAGO, October 21.-The colored
people of the city filled to overfiowing
Yesterday the different churches which
they attend and passed the day in fast
ing and prayer. The colored pastors
preached sermons and prayed for the
power of the Almighty to relieve the
colored people of the South from op-
preston and wrong. Yesterday was
the day set apart by the recent conven-
ton of colored clergymen at lndianapo-
lis for prayer and supplication on bc-
half of the suffering negroes in the
South. A dispatch from st. Louis
says that similar services were con-
Quoted IN the colored churches there.
