Deterioration of Rubber.

A rubber expert, who has been maxi
ing Investigations into the cause of the
deterioration of rubber, has thrown a
new light on the short service derived
from rubber hose in railway work. It
Is found that the copper salts which are
used IN various stages of the manufac-
ture of certain kinds of rubber goods
frequently tend to decompose or harden
the material Metallic copper in con-
tact with rubber causes the oxidation or
hardening of the gum, although no ap-
preciabls amount Of the metal may en-
ter into il; bat zine does not in any way
infect it. OIL containing even the small
est quantity of copper is highly injuri-
Gus to rubber goods, and all oils. except
castor oil. exert detrimental effect
linseed oil having also an acid which
rots the cloth. One of the evidences Of
the decomposition of rubber is its
strong odor. and when a piece OF blot
ting paper is placed on decaying rubber
it becomes discolored by some Of the
e1na IA tons, which does not occur when,
the rubber is in good condition.

Good for Anderson.

We congratulate both the friends of the
Women's Industrial and Normal College
and the people of Anderson that the Col
lege is to be located in that attractive and
enterprising town.
The friends of the college are to be con-
graduated because the institution is to be
established in the place where it is most
appreciated, and where the appreciation
has been manifested in so substantial
form. The corporation gives SIS, 600 with
the sauthoriEed assurance from private
citizens of suitable site' besides, which
will serve to establish the institution on
a strong foundation at once.
The people of Anderson are to be con-
graduated because they have not only
won prize that is valuable in itself, but
have won it, in an open contest, from a
number of larger and richer places-out-
bidding the Capital of the State on the
one side and the always liberal and pro-
gressive city Of Greenville on the other.
It was notable victory, and was fairly
won by virtue of the greater liberality
and ublic spirit of the winner,
Our friends in Anderson deserve all
credit for their success, and they will
never have cause to regret it, we are
sure. In a business point Of view the
gift 1875, 900 was good investment, as
It will repay itself when tho college is
established, while from the educational,
social and industrial points Of view the
benefits of the College TO the town and
County cannot be we'll overestimated.-

magnetism, either strong or weak, has
produced any effect, either beneficial or
detrimental, upon the human system.
Night after night for months have been
in the presence Of the most powerful dy-
namos-as have thousands of men in the
many electric light stations all over the
world-where magnetism of the strongest
kind permeates every bone and fibre and
tissue of the body. and yet, so far as any
effect, either good or bad, on the system
goes, one would mover know he had been
in the magnetic field. To the best of my
knowledge and belief, there is absolutely
nothing in the human anatomy that can
be acted npon by magnet"

MEssRs. EDITORS: Believing that the
interests of all classes of our citizens re-
quire restoration Of unity in The Demo-
cratic party, and confidence and harmo-
NOUS action on the part of all good citi-
zens Of our State, we desire to indorse the
call for mass meeting of those Demo-
Gratis in this County who desire TO restore
such unity and harmony to assemble in
the Court House in Anderson on Tues
day, the 22nd inst, at II O'clock a. M,
for tho purpose of consulting together
and electing delegates to the Convention
called to meet in Columbia on the oath
inst, to formulate policy and suggest
ticket for State officers to secure such re-
suit. We feel that the present is an i'm
portant crisis in our States prosperity,
and view with grave apprehension tho
increasing contentious which are distract
ing and dividing our people, and believe
that these troubles can be remedied by
the people comforting together and de-
manding a conservative and fair admin
istration of our State government. There
has never before been such financial
condition confronting us. Neighbors
have boen arrayed against neighbors,
friends against friends, and public conf
dence destroyed. Tho people have re-
ceived no benefits from this condition OF
things, and thousands of our fellow
citizens are suffering from financial dis
tress caused in large measure by this
arraying of class against class. The State
debt, which natures next year, ought to
be refunded at lower rate of interest, so
as to save at least one mill of taxes every
year for the next fifty years, and it is
now apparent that this cannot be done
with the government as at present con-
stituted. It is our wish to see prosperi-
ty return to our State, to soc men Of con-
servative character, with experience and
unquestioned integrity, placed in all pub
lie positions, and to SEQ the government
controlled by the people, without dicta-
ton or unnecessary restriction. We be-
lieye that free and candid consultation
