PRoHIbITIoNIsTs TO THE RESCUE. .-.Goyernor
Til;man had something 10 say yesterday,
that will be Of especial interest to some prehi-
bitionists. 1t will make Coed Tempar Brun-
son and some Of his followers think little
For some time there hos been: talk that the
prohititionists and out-and-out anti-dispsnsa-
~ people wero going to combine and prevent
withholding the signatures Of the majority
OF the fresholders. Here is the statemen mt
Governor T'liman made 10 the press yester-
day:
at is my opinion, and it may be taken for
what it is worth, that any prohibitisnst who
refuses to cooperate with me in the estab-
lishiog Of dispensaries by not signing the
petitions Of the dispensers and assisting the
government 10 every possible way to enforce,
rather than to prevent it going into effect,
thoy will regret il.
1.-The Threatened alliance between the whis-
key men and other political opponents, who
are in favor of it, may bring about such a
state Of dissatisfaction as will seriously Grip
pie me in my efforts to help the cause of
Temperance.
III the prohibitionists are bambo oZled by
the opposition into lending their aid 10 this
end, they will be likely to find themselves
in the condition Of the dog in the fable, who,
seing his shadow reflected ia tho water,
snapped at it and lost what he had.
There will be absolute prohibition in
every county where the sale of LIQUOR is
prohibited by law. Not even druggists
being allowed to sell it for medicine, nor can
it be shipped into those countries by express
or otherwise under the new law, and, there
fors, the experiment as to whether the peo-
pie will stand absolute prohibition will be
made in at least six counties. and I sh.n
take particular pains to see that the law is
as strictly enforced iu those counties as il
- anywhere else, let it cost what it may.

uenists to advance to . stronger position
sfter they havo found that they can hold
what has already been gained."-The State.

LAMAR's LAsH.-Tbe death Of Justice
Lamar has recalled his well known devotion
to the Crntederacy, and his love for the
lost cause was productive Of ono of the most
dramatic scenes in the history of the sennte.
Tbs Mexican pension bill was under con-
sideration and an amendment pended ex-
tending its provisions to all veterans ire
spective of their course in the war bet ween
the States. 1t was near adoption. Con-
gress, it was said, could best show its desire
TO forgive and forget by extending the bene-
fits Of the measure TO those who had once

The amendment was near adoption when
Senator Zach Chandler came to his feet with
q short speech, in which he said that while
in the main he agreed to tho gcueral tenor
of III, amendment. yet under its provisions
even JEFF Davis would be restored to citizen
chip. And" he added, IL am not pre-
pared 10 go so far n, that"
Lamar arose. His intense excitement was
evident. Between him and Chandler a
strong personal autagonism existed. An
outburst was expected, and it came.

UNION DIssoLvED.-The Union Store Com.
paDy, which q few months ago entered
south Carolina as the backer aud furni.her
OF Alliance stores, and was announced with
long toot Of the bucolic rams horn as the
great moneyed concern which was TO free
the farmer from dependence upon the sx-
tortionate native store-keeper, is reported
to have had enough Of its experiment and
40 being about to abandon the fsld and close
its tve stores. The company, it is said,
hnds that business in the South ON the AL
lance basis is improbable.
We are not surprised at this, nor are we
gTieved. This Union Company sought to be
monopoly, and had it succeeded il would
have broken down hundreds of merchants
by absorbing the trade upon which they
lived. 1t would have decreased the number
Of independent citizens and decreased the
class OF population which builds towns and
factories, and pays extra taxes for good
schools, and contributes to that divers, fed
industry which the State so much needs
