necessary by the Banks TO issue clearing
House Certificates. The Bank officials
say that they are still unable to secure
their usual loans from the North, and if
matters stand thus until cotton begins to
arrive pretty freely they will issue the
certificates. In any event, ways and
means will be found to handle the crop,
if it is within the power OF our Banks and
business men to do it, until money can
be secured in sufficient volume to meet
all needs. We think no one need hold
back cotton for fear of not getting the
market value for it. If he should be
paid in certificates they will be as good as
so much gold.
Mr.. A. NJ. Craig has filed a petition with
the Clerk of the County Board of Control
containing ninety.eight names recon-
mending him for appointment as Dis
psnser for Anderson County. It is claim
ed by some that there are names on the
petition who are not freehold voters, and
hence not entitled to consideration. The
Auditor is preparing list of the freehold
voters of the city, and there are some who
think that judged by his list there will be
less than majority Of bona fde freehold
voters on the petition. The Board is called
to meet on the 11th inst The Board con.
sists of J. B. Douthit, Bailey Breazeale
and John Eskew. It was required that
petitions and applications be filed ten days
before the meeting. There was only the
one petition filed. The result will be
watched with interest.
The Superintendent of the Southern
Express Company has notified Mr.. R. L.
Keys, their accommodating and highly
esteemed Agent at this place, that contri-
buttons of money and small packages OF
clothing and medicines intended for the
storm sufferers at Beaufort, Port Royal
and other places in that vicinity will be
transported free by that Company. He
says their limited car space will not afford
room for carrying provisions, etc. Chari-
table persons who desire to contribute the
kind of articles mentioned above can have
them sent free Of cost and with certainty
of prompt delivery to the consigners.
"He gives twice who gives quickly" ap-
plies in this instance, and all who intend
giving anything should do so at once.
To foresee trouble and get ready for 1t is
not to borrow trouble The foreseen
trouble actually comes to US the bor-
rowed trouble is unnecessarily added. At
this moment, when SO many are unable to
borrow money on what would ordinarily
be considered good security, every map
finds himself able to borrow trouble with
out putting up any collateral. Trouble is
to be had in every market, and every man
can take as much as he chooses. The
more he borroRs, however, the less likely
will he be able to deal with what actually
comes to him. It is fact Of experience
which we are slow to learn, that tie
trouble we borrow never would have been
ours in any other way. We appropriate
what would never COME to Rs otherwise.
The real troubles of life are numerous and
hard enough, but they constitute very
small proportion of its trials in conpari-
son with imaginary troubles. To deal
successfully with the real troubles We
must refuse to consider the imaginary

Editor Langston returned yesterday from
three weeks trip to the Northwest. du-
ring which he visited the Fair at Chicago
aud other cities in the West. he found
the trip quite test of physical endurance.
BE aud his fellow scribes were the recip-
tents of many courtesies and the trip was
pleasant and profitable one. He declined
to 70 to work On this issre and We suspect
good many South Carolina Editors found
it difficult to lower sails sufficiently to set
tie down to the old life Of work and work
sftsr their royal trip in palace cars to the
greatest Fair known to history. In fact it
may be some time before ell Of them can
completely shake off the idea thai slips
into ones brain under such pleasant sur
r)undings that they are railroad kings In
their oYn coaches and on their own roads
or gentlemen of leisure and independent
fortunes, serving their country by putting
their almighty dollars into active and rapid
circulation. We can promise that the
next issue will feel the benefits of the
psual force and energy and watchfnlness
he brings TO bear on his work.
