CHARLESTON, October 24.-The prize
fight between Professors" Jack Dunno.
van of New York and Billy Layton OF
Florence, which was interfered with by
the police on Tuesday last, took place
to day. The Athletic Club left the city
about p. m. on tug, while the pugi-
lists, referees, shareholders, trainers
and other officials took another tug,
which left another wharf about the same
hour. The party first landed atCainhoy,
a village about eight miles from the city,
on the Wando River, and which has &C.
quired some reputation as being the
scene of the massacre in 1876, when a
dozen or more were killed or massacred
by negroes during the political campaign.
The citizens of Cainnoy, however, objec
ted to the prize fight, and the pugilists
went farther up the river, where land.
ing was finally effected at Camp Island,
about twenty miles from this city.
Thirteen rounds we're fought in almost
an hour. Dunnovan was knocked sense
less in she thirteenth round and failed to
come to time. The stakes were $500 to
Layton, the winner, and 500 to Dunno.
van, the loser, who also received purse
of $50, made up on the ground. Layton's
weight was Isl and Dunnovan's 1853
pounds. The latter was badly punished.
This is the first prize fight ever held in
Charleston.-Special to the Register.

North Carolina's Negroes.

RALEIGH, N. G., October 23.-Gover-
nor Fowle to. day opened the eleventh
annual Colored State Fair here and spoke
to large audience of negroes. He
referred to the action of the Chicago
negroes in appointing day of fasting
and prayer for Southern negroes, and
said that his auditors were ss happy as
any people Oh the face of the earth and
were protected In ell of their rights, and
be pledged them the whole power of the
State would be exercised in their behalf
just AZ much as in behalf of white men.
The white man in the South, he said,
is we'll disposed toward the negroes and
this feeling is reciprocated. Negro
schools and asylums in North Carolina
are as we'll cared for as those of whites.
Chicago negroes who have soug ht to set
a day of fasting aud humiliation will
never enjoy the same attributes of free.
dom as North Carolina negroes. They
never even see the inside of jury box.
The Rev. Mr.. Leak, colored, secretary
of the fair, endorsed Governor Fowle'a
remarks.

- In the Western part of North Caro-
lima, about seven miles West of Hot
Springs, there lives family by the name
of Brooks. II is a very interesting one,
and many visitor to The quiet little town
of Hot Springs has had his curiosity 80
aroused by stories of this family that he
has hired team and driven seven miles
to the Brooks residence. This consists of
little low log cabin in an unsettled dis
trict, and is occupied by father, mother
and twenty exceptionally handsome
children. Every one is a blonde, with
yellow golden hair aud peacby com.
plexion, and all as ignorant, wild and
untutored as they are beautiful. In ad.
dition to the above family proper, the two
oldest girls are married, and one is
widow with two children and the other
has three children and husband. Both
these little families are living with the
old folks at home, making in all a family
of twenty eight, when none are missing
The home or log cabin consists of but one
room, and that is very small one. The
family sleeps in berths, arranged like
those on ship.

q cause he insults grossly the woman he

cause be insults grossly the woman he
has married."
"What sort of husbands do you believe
in 2" exclaimed the newly made matron,
desperately.
"For my part" replied a careful
matron with several daughters to marry,
IT should prefer widower, we'll off and
with no children, of course. he should
be about forty years old, and must have
been devoted husband to bis FIRST wife.
Such man has lived over The vagaries Of
youth. He has sowed wild oais aud an.
chored steadfastly his ship of love until it
vas blown away by the wind of eternity.
He has known lifs's greatest joys and
deepest sorrows. He knows how to ap
preciate profoundly the love of q woman,
and having learned many lessons in wo-
man nature be will neither be too exact
ing nor unccmprt bendipg of her little
fancles and fuloles.
"But I'd rather have the first love ola
man, even if it was exacting, and even if
ne didn't always understand each other
should want to feel that had been the
first to share his heart and life. Do you
think any man could feel first married
but once Z"
EYES," said the most ardent doubter of
mans sincerity. "They don't remember
woman two days after her toes are cold.
Look how most widowers do. First, griet
terrible, heart broken, home wrecked,
and so forth. Then in a little while
love talk, second edition of orange
blossoms, wedding cake, heartoveraowing,
stranded home, all put together again,
new furniture, new wife and the first
ones portrait consigned to the garret.
"a bad picture. .but l believe widow
er of forty is preferable to bachelor of
the same age" said one who had reason
to know. "People talk of its being better
to be an old mans darling than.a young
mans slave, but I believe that the women
who marry old bachelors are the worst
slaves on earth. Then, there are other
objections besides unreasouing scl6shness
to unmarried men from forty on. Such
individuals seldom strike happy man.
They are either prudes or roues. If the
former they are fixed in their prim, old
maidish habits; if the latter, they have
past that will not bear investigation
and mind and point of viev corrupted
beyond publication. People are always
talking of the horror of marrying old
maids and I can't see why there isn't
more said concerning the horror of mar.
rying old bachelora. men whose sentiment
has generally soured, whose tastes and
habits have settled. into selfish, narrow
lives, who have lived so long without the
companionship of women that they can't
understand or enjoy their natures when
they get married. Old bachelor husbands
are crusty, suspicious every thing that
should have cause the woman who has
married them to be pitied."
Here the party was interrupted by the
entrance of the hostess husband, and the
just married young woman went to her
home doubtless with.a perlurbed spirit.
She has life time to moralize upon ma.
trimony and perhaps she can solve the
riddle at the end.

Savings the Foundation Of Wealth.

The man who saves something every
year. quotes contemporary, who had
heard the remark from every quarter, is
on the road to prosperity. It may not be
possible to save much. If not, save
little Do not think that a dollar or
dime is too small sum to lay by.
Everybody knows how little expenditures
get away with large sums. But few seem
to know that the rule is one that works
both ways. If dime spent here and
dollar there soon makes large hole in a
mans income, 80 do dimes and dollars
laid away soon become visible and re.
spectacle accumulation. In this country
any man can make himself Independent
or keep himself under the harrow for life,
according as he wastes or spends his
small change.
Most of our milliopaires laid the foun
da.ion of their fortunes by saving. 1t is
said that Senator Farwell commenced
life as q surveyor.
Cornelius Vanderbilt began life $ a
farmer.
Postmaster General Wanamaker's first
salary was ST. .25 week.
A. T. Stewart made his first start as q
school teacher.
Cyrus Field began life as clerk in a
New England store.
Andrew Carnegie did his first work in
telegraph Office at So week.
Whiteaw Reid, our minister to France,
Gid work as correspondent of Ciucin
natl newspaper for So week.
Moses Taylor clerked in Watar street,
New York, at 81 week.
George w. Childs was az errand boy
for book seller at 81 a month.
Jay Gould canvassed Delaware county,
N. Y, selling maps at 81 so piece.
And to the above names which are IA.
miliar to most persons, might be added
hundreds of others whose fortune and
fame had the same small beginning.
The same or better opportunities exist
to-day for bright, energetic young men
to succeed that existed when the above
millionaires begun their business life, but
to accomplish it, the same perseverance,
and economy which characterised their
early career must be observed.-Scienfifc

WHILE YET THEY KNow.

We knew that every faint and nuttering breath
Was but harbinges Of Fastening death.
We lavished love- caresses, untold care;
Poured ont our souls in constant pleading
prayer,
While every sigh she breathed each broken
word,
Seemed to our hearts the sweetest ever heard
Yea. when she knew no face, no tenderest tone
But lay, unconscious Of our love, alone,
None from that saddened chamber turned away
TIL all that there remained was silent clay;
And even that we cherished, as was meet
Till reyerently laid beneath our feet.
Through joys and sorrows, hopes and cares and
fears
We swiftly move toward the grand, eternal
years;
Forgetting that the least brief step we tread
Tends toward that vast majority" the dead
That with each highest breath there shall re-
main
One link the less Of LIES unmeasured chain.
$50 heavy is the vail that lies between
The seen of earth, the heavenly unseen.)
Nor is one left alone-on either hand
Those who crave help or love beside us stand
Then, friends and brothers, give to these o give
Their need OF tenderness while yet they live!
