A Road Hand on the Public Roads.


Mr.. EDIroR.-I notice in many Of the last
Issues Of The TIMES considerable complaint
in regard TO the condition Of the public
roads.
Now, Mr.. Editor, as the Commissioners
have ordered the roads TO be worked, we
would like for you, or the Commissions or
some one else. to give Us some better method
for working the roads. You can hear the CON-
plant from every section of the county :
oh the roads are so bad they are almost
impas.able.
Now, Mr.. Editor, does IL look very reason.
able, when our public roads get in such
q condition that the people cannot travel in
buggies and on horseback, that the road
hands could wade about in the mud and
water and work the roads to any advantage?
In your last issue'of the TIMES ysu said that
some gentleman had to tie up his borses tail
and also Els cost tail to keep them from
ge.tiag -Wsllr r;fe- that gentleman
wss to undertake TO work the roads with his
coat tail tied up in knot, he would not do
much good. He would have to pull that
coet og and halg /. up in . tall tree, or Il
you'd get spattered a little Bit these times.
Mr.. Editor, We would all like to have good
roads as il would be much more convenient
for us farmers 10 haul home our guano and
our little handful Of rations.
As our honorable Board of County Com
missioners have laid down the plan for work.
ing the roads, we would be very thankful to
them if they will give US some practical
method by which we can put them in the
condition they have ordered them to be put
in. wonder il the County Commissioners
are exempt from road duty. They surely
must be. ROAD HAND.

aea. The Comptroller General under legal
advice of the States Attorney, has created
quite futter among the Bank officers and
stockholders, by instructing the County
Auditors to find ont the market value, per
share, of the stock Of any Bank returned to
its market value, not at its par value. Many
National Bank officers claim that the in
structiops only apply TO Incorporated State
Banks and not to the National Banks. Be
that as it may, We can not express our own
opinion on the Comptroller's instructions
more clearly and emphatically than - our
| uUcs III the following:
We notice from q recent circular from
the Comptroller General that all banks must
be required to return their stock ut it's mar
ket value. That is, if bank stock is worth
$l20 share it must be returned for taxation
at S12O share. That is all right, if every
man who has mule or horse worth $3.50
piece would return them for tsxation at
$3.50; and if land worth $40 an acre, would
be returned at $40 an acre, aud 80
on with every class Of property returned for
taxation. But We cannot see the justice OF
singing out one class Of property and re-
quiring that it be returned for taxation at its
full market value when it is n patent fact to
everybody who will trouble himself to ex-
anime the Auditors books that other pro-
perty is not returned at its full value.
Now We are not pretending to defend the
banks but we like to see justice in all things.
IL is useless to say that we have no bank
stock and that we are not personally inter
ested in the matter at oil.

HAMPTON HELPS CLEMsoN--Pendleton,
s. c., February 10.-The Clemson College
received q few days ago from Senator Hamp-
ton some throe hundred books. We have
not seen them, but We are told they are
very valuable, being mostly books Of refer
encc. We are also informed these books,
being the first donation to tho Clemson Col.
lege library, will be numbered aud the honor
ed donors name will be duly enrolled on
thu library resistor.-------------
There is something peculiar about these
hooks. Some time in September last Sena-
tor Hampton wrote to Colonel Simpson,
president Of the board oftrustees, inf ,rming
him of his desire to donate these books to
the Clemson College and requested him to
designate to whom and where they should
be sent. But for uuaccountable reasons
this letter was not received by Colonel Simp-
son until about two or three weeks ago.
Where it was all this time no ono can con-
lecture, but from the lumber Of post ioffice
stamps on the envelope it has had many ups
and downs before it reached its destination.
Colonel Simpson Immediately answered tho
letter so long dcayed, and the books were
promptly received.
Senator Hampton has also in the last few
days sent 10 DR.. p. II. +. Sloan. secretary
