Fire in ReidSyille.

A special dispatch from Reidsville
to the Charlotte Chronicle on last
Saturday SAYS: We were visited by
another destructive fire this morning.
The fire is supposed to have been the
work of an incendiary. 1t originated
in a colored restaurant under Redd's
warehouse. 1t was discovered about
three O'Clock, and lasted until five
O'Clock this morning. Redd's ware
house, Doggett's Hotel, and nine
store rooms were burned.

thousand dollars, insurance about
seventeen thousand. The following

THE TOWNS NOT SATISFIED.

The Board of Examiners say the
towns are not satisfied with their
pro rata share of the public funds.
Though they are thickly settled and
have their comfortable homes, though
they are able to support a school at
a minimum individual expense, they
are not satisfied. No, with all their
ease, their wealth, their comfort,
their asiluencs and style, they are
constantly asking the Legislature to
give them the Httle pittance ef The
poor country chIdrem's school mon
ey. But in Tugaloo Township they
have about already cotton it without
any aid from the Legislature. No,
the people of Oconee county do not
desire its adoption, nor will they con-
sent to have their children's money
expended for so absurd, so prcpos-
ferrous and, 80 useless hobby.

transfer of money now collected by
law from one purpose to another.
With all the talk and hurrah the
issue is simply whether the people of
the State would rather have the
sinking fund paying few six per
cent bonds, the Agricultural Depart
ment at Columbia and the agricultu-
raj annex to the State University at
Columbia; or the Clemson agricultu-
raj college at Fort Hill, endowed,
built and maintained for the purpose
of educating the sons of farmers and
developing generation of trained
workmcn to deal with our soil on
fair terms of competition with
farmers of other States.
1t is very simple, plain, direct
issue, and one which the people can
understand. The farmers are help
ing to pay for university at Colum-
bia, and the Citadel Academy at
Charleston, to educate professional
and business men. They ask for a
college in the Piedmont country to
educate farmers and mechanics, and
are met by the generous concession
that if they will pay for it they can
establish it; but they must not touch
any existing institution or project,
even when it is sustained by their
money and nominally for their bcnc-
fit.
Let the fight be made plainly and
clearly on the issue: sinking fund,
agricultural department, expert
mental stations and agricultural an
mex to the university on one side;
the farmers college on the other.

WALHALLA, S. c., Novcmbcr25, 1889.
-Walhalla is the County seat Of
Oconec county and is therefore Il
fair criterion of Southern town
where the people for a radius of
twenty miles are seen daily on the
main street. This is the railroad
centre of quite a large area and the
only accessible railway station for
thirty miles for the country North
west of this point. 1t is therefore
the market town, and while every
day brings more or less to town, Sat
urday is the principal day for the
mountaincers, as they are termed, to
drive into Walhalla. Everything
that can be used rs a beast of burden
is pressed into service. Mules are
very common, although they really
have some fine horses in this country.
One man brought large number Of
Montana horses here at considerable
."pcnsc, and they might have been

month exercising on .hc main stroct
They are being rapidly disposal Of
at good figures. Speaking OF tho
peculiar turnouts, it is very common
to see bulls, steers, and oxen hitchcd
up Unfortunately, and a late writer
to the Hartford Times says that
COWS are made to drag loads in the
highlands of North Carolina, but
have never witnessed anything Of
the kind here.
The mountainccrs use covered
wagon principally and camp out on
the road frequently when going long
distances, and their turnouts remind
me of the cmigrant wagons out
West. Every section of the country
has odd phrases, and here are some
of the expressions that seem odd to
a Northern man. In speaking of
person having gone away from home
or place of business temporarily, it
is usual to say, "IIc's done ,onc,"
or in quoting him to say, "IIo done
say So" A nice pleasant day is a
"pretty day" and it covers the ground
very nicely, too, | think. "Right
hard" is another common expression,

favored community. The people arc
rcligiously inclined more as a rule,
| think, than at the North, and their
religion partakcs largely of the
primitive and old fashioned religion

colorcd people here have church of

The Oconcc county Circuit Court
was in session last week and at
tended it. The presiding Judge, q
digniicd old gentleman, known as
Judge Frasicr, donncd the old fash.
ioncd black robe on ascending the
bench, and the cricr went out on the
court house steps and gave notice of
the opening OF court, in voice that
could be heard three blocks off, and
later when witnesses were backward
in presenting themselves, he scaled
them" in the same stcntorian voice.
One name that caused smile, was
"Mack Muckcvcnc,' who failed to
respond at the first call, and | thought
that in all probability he had gone
to Columbia with Mary Muchaplcasc,
one Of the defendants, to be on hand
at the opening Of the Legislature
and have their names changed But
the next day when he showed his
smiling black face on the witness
: stand, concluded that he did not
) care whether his name was Mack
Mucklcvcnc or Muck Macklcvcnc.
The majority OF the cases presented
70 the court were the Outgrowth OF
drunken negro scrapcs and fights.
One darkcy was stabbed and cut up
badly by another "bad niggcr," who
only had one arm, and some OF the
testimony was laughablc. In answer
to one question the bandagcd up

lant had cut a stick and walked up
to another and struck him with it,"
and when asked what kind Of wood
il was replied, 81 don't know what
kind of wood it was, but it was oak"
This caused smile on the grave
face of the judge. Later on the same
witness told Of the cutting affair
that followed and said she was on
the highway, about twenty yards
ahead of the others, and 'sjust walk
ing along," and when asked how she
could see all this that occurred back
OF her, and asked if people did not
generally look ahead of them, she
non-pIusscd the lawyer by saying
that "cycs were given to look where

He Wrote n Very Great Book and "A Very
Contemplate One.
Simon Greenleaf, the famous law pro-
fessor at Cambridge, and author of the
best treatise on evidence ever written,
was native of New Gloucester, Me-
OF poor but respectable parentage, his
early advantages were extremely lin
tied. He contrived to study law, and
commenced practice in Gray, a little
town about twenty miles north of Port
land. He was so poor as to be once
arrested for debt. He removed to Port
land, where he made such favorable
impression that he was appointed re-
porter of decisions after Maine became
a State, and acquired fine reputation.
His business was large, and he stood
among the first when he was invited
through the influence of Judge Story
to become Royal professor of law at
Cambridge, where he soon acquired a
national reputation. The treaties on
evidence was written here. He also
wrote work in defense of the gospels,
which was failure, inasmuch as the
attempt was made to support the testi-
mony of the evangelists by the rules
of evidence administered in courts of
justice. No genius or learning could
make success of work on this basis.
The gospels are true; but the evidence
is of far higher kind than that ad-
ministercd in courts of justice although
lawyers sometimes affect to be very
wise, and talk in watery way on this
subject. Their efforts in this direction
do not strengthen the evidences, and
sometimes tend to throw doubt over
what is clear enough when seen from
another and proper standpoint. Judge
NJ etcalf, sturdy believer of the old
sort, was not deceived by this sort of
thing, and pronounced the work of Mr.
Greenleaf the meanest book ever
written by white man. Boston Bea-

bought in our lunch and we ate from a
long table. At first the boys had some
difficulty in keeping awake, and would
go to sleep unGer stairways and in the
corners. We employed watchers to
bring them out, and in time they got
used to it. After awhile didn't need
forty-two of them, and discharged
six of them. Well, do you know, i
couldn't drive them away. They
stayed there and worked for nothing.
