AUGUSTA, Ga. September 5.-Mr.
Joe Henry Lafayette, young man
only p years old, of Newberry, ). G.,
met horrible death here to-day. He
was visiting his father, Mr.. Joe Lata-
yette, who works in the Enterprise
Factory.
Shortly after 7 o'clock this morning
Mr.. Lafayette was sitting in front of
Mr.. Patrick O'CallahaH's store, on
upper Greene street, talking to Sam
West, when the Port Royal and West
ern Carolina Railroad outgoing morn
ing passenger train shot around the
curve and entered Greene street, bound
for Spartanburg. When Lafayette sp'ed
the train coming he told West he was
going to get aboard and get morning
paper from the butcher boy.
Within a foot of the track was an
embankment of gravel four feet high:
Joe got on top Of the embankment and
when the train came along he threw
out both hands and leaped, with the
intention ofjumping on the tram be-
tween the tirstand second-cIass coaches:
The poor fellow made a rlisstep and
fell between the cars unnOtlced. his
coat got caught in the brake rod and
he was dragged sixty feet before he fell
upon the track. The wheels ofthe first
class car and the sleeper passed over
his body. Lafayette was horribly
mutilated. He was lying on his stomach
with his breast turned up and portions
of his body were scattered along the
track. His head, which was lying on
the rails, was mashed into jelly. Both
his arms were mangled. and his hands
were cut off at tht wrists. The trunk
of his body was cut wide open. 1t was
a dreadful sight, one to excite horror,
but hundreds Of men and women gath
cred around the laverated form ana
viewed the remains. The poor fellow
must have suffered thousand deaths
while he was suspended over thc
wheels.
Coroner Clark commenced upon an
this morning, but will not
conclude the investigation until Mon
day, when the butcher boy on the
train will give his evidence. Lafayette
came here from Newberry, where his
mother lives and where he worked in
the Newberry Cotton Mills on last
Tuesday. Since his arrival he decided
to remain here and was going to work
in the Sibey Mills on Monday.

We cannot see what Mr.. keitt hopes
to gain by abusing The Herald and
News. We try to be fair, and have
always published about as much for
Mr.. keitt's side as the other, and have
never abused Mr.. Keitt or any one else.
It is no part of our stock in trade, but
we do not propose that Mr.. Keitt, or
the Cotton Plant, or Economist shall
form our opinions. We have been
wanting information, and have been
ready and willing to give our aid to
any scheme that was fair and just that
would be of benefit to the farmers.
But we do not see what can be accom-
plished by abuse or Misrepresentation.
VIII Mr.. Keitt point out when and
where we misrepresented him or the

We publish this week the letter Of
Senator Butler to Dr.. J. w. Stokes,
and the reply Of DR.. Stokes. The head
lines are the same as appeared in the
News and Courier. The Herald and
News thinks that the Cotton Plant has
done Senator Butler an injustice in the
construction it placed upon his debate,
and the reply of DR.. Stokes does not
give satisfactory explanation of the
construction placed upon the language
of Senator Butler. But the letters Of
the two gentlemen are published and
the people can form their own opinions.
1t is now personal matter between
DR.. Stokes and Senator Butler, and has
nothing to do with the merits Of the
discussion.

Tho grain crops in the United States
are said to be the best and largest this
year ever produced. The Manufac-
turers' Record in a recent issue esti-
mates them and the figures may be of
interest. The Record says:
The yields Will probahSs~Sa obont
2oO'VoO,VO1 ousne!SSss Ssss Wheat, 2,0G0, ,00o,-
wv ousneIs eI:sSsse5rn, = setrn between 100000, 900
r.r.cs -70U'OOO, 900 bushels of oats and
over lO0, 100000 bushels of other grains,
making an aggregate Of about $500,
600 900 bushels. or about l,WO,000,OOO
bushels more than in 1890. This IN
crease of 1000, 100000 bushels is equal
to 100000 carloads Of $4,000 pounds
each. Nearly all other crops promise
the same abundant yield, rice, sugar,
tobacco, fruits, grasses, etc, al aoolng
immensely to the profits Of farmers:
Cotton alone of all the big crops will
fall short of 1890, but this will be an
advantage, as the yield of last year was
too large for the demand.
And the big grain crop this year will
not put the prices down, for the crops
in Europe are very short and our grain
will be in great demand. The ap-
parent deficit in Europe to be met
by importation is estimated to be 1885,
100000 bushels.
The estimated requirements of rye
and wheat for the worlds consumption
are $500, 100000 bushels and the total
estimated crop of these two grains for
1891 will aggregate but about 3,OOO,OOO,-
600 bushels which shows deficit of
about G00,000,00O bushels. 1t must be
remembered that rye constitutes
large per cent of the bread-making
grains. The American farmer ought
and no doubt will receive good price
for his wheat this season, and as there is
large crop and he should be happy.
OF the yield Of cotton is not so large
the price ought to be better, as is al
ready indicated and it figures to look
as if there was better time ahead. We
hope so.

PEACE.

Tie Herald and News would like to
suggest Il council Of peace. What is
the use O.! white men and brethren
abusing each other? We all seem to
admit that there is something wrong.
That the people are depressed, That
there is some relief to be secured by
legislation and that something is
needed. We are in South Carolina all
white people and all interested in a
common destiny, and all want to see
the relief tiat is desired. Then, what
is the use or the sense Of abusing each
other and fighting one another. Why
not pus the politicians aside and all
agree on some cause that will bring the
relief desired. That seems to US to be
the best plan to be pursued. If a ma
jority of the white people Of South
Carolina want the sub-treasury, let them
so instruct their representatives. If
they decide upon something else, why
let us have that, but in any event there
is no sense in abusing one another. Let
US get together like men and settle
this thing.

was $23.02. On the lst of January,
1881. cur actual circulation was about
81 ,:539, ,0GO, 900, and the amount per
capita $2i.l0, that is, as officially stated,
the highest per capita circulation in the
history Of the country. Since then the
circulation has been somewhat reduced
by the shipment to Europe of over
SO, goo, 900 gold during the spring and
early summer. But there are already
indications Of the return of this gold in
exchange for our grain, and as we have
seen above, the circulation is again in
creasing. Seeing, then, that our per
capita circulation is larger than ever
before in our history, and greater than
that OF any other leading nation, with
perhaps single exception, as propose
to show at an early day, we are forced,
it seems to me, to one Of three conciu-
siOns: Either our circulation has always
been too small, and we have had our
marvellous prosperity as a nation and
as people for over hundred years
with too little currency. Or we need
more currency per capita now than
heretofore, and if this be the case, we
would like for some Of our Alliance
wiseacres to explain the reason why.
Or it is mistake TO suppose that a
scarcity of currency is at all the cause
Of our woes. Which Of these three
conclusions is the most plausible:

p. S.-Since writing the foregoing |
have received from the Treasury De-
partment the promised circular, en-
titled, 1.-The Volume of Money in Circu-
lation," in which is closely set forth,
1st. The entire amount Of money in
the United States. 2nd. The amount
held in the Treasury. Sd. The amount
in actual circulation, as well as the per
capita circulation on July lst Of every
year from 1850 up to the present time.
| would suggest that you publish the
abbreviated table containing this in
formation, and that every person inter
eeted in knowing the truth on the sub
ject cut it out and preserve it. For
this purpose I enclose you copy.

MONEY IN CIRCULATION.
Showing How the per Capita Has Steadily
Increased Since 1850,

WASHINGTON, September 4.-Ihe
Secretary of the Treasury has prepared
a pamphlet in regard to the volume Of
money in circulation, as telegraphed to
The News and Courier to day. 1t shows
that the amount in circulation July !,
1865, was STA, 702,995. Of this amount
$3.50, 702,995 was paper money. During
the calendar year 1865 the average
market price of gold was l57. So it
required Sl57 in currency to purchase
as much of any commodity as could be
purchased with 500 in gold. The
STA, ,702, ,995 then in circulation was,
therefore, equivalent as an average for
the year to only S646, Sol ,27O of the
money which has constituted the cur
rency of this country since January |,
1879. This was an amount per capita Of
S133G.
