forced poverty Simply to enrich the
few.
It is said by the friends Of resuinp-
ton that the panic of 1878 came before
the resumption act passed, but these
| special pleaders must remember that
| during the Fortv-first congress, in
| March, 1860, an act was passed in these
words: "And the United States also
solemnly pledges its faith 10 make pro-
| visions at the earliest practicable pc
Rod for the resumption of the United
States notes in coin and also all other
| obligations of the United States except
where it is expressly provided to be
| paid in lawful money or other currency
Here was an assurance of speedy re-
| sumption which destroyed confidence
in the paper money of the country. and
! the contraction which had been going
on since 1865, now went on more rap
| idly until all confidence was lost in the
panic of 1873, Here was reputation
| by the government of its own lawful
money ana can we be surprised that
all men discredited that money?
Confidence! we hear continually
| about the restoration of confidence
| Confidence in ship while the scuttlers
are at work to send it to the bottom
| Confidence in a promise to pay, while
| the sappers and miners are removing
| the foundations of value upon which
that promise is made
The following extract from the re-
| port of the silver commission" should
| be remembered
1T is maintained by many that ex-
| isting evils are the results OF loss and
| lack Of confidence and that the sulh-
cient remedy would be found in its
restoration, On an occasions they por-
| tray in glowing phrase the Astounding
| prosperity which would follow IT mon
| eyed and other capitalists would freely
exhibit confidence by inaugurating IN
| dustriai and commercial enterprises.
But it is to be observed that they con-
| tent themselves with recommending
confidence to others while they are
careful not to make a practical eNhibi-
| ton OF any on their own part. Tney
| seem to be unconsciously Influenced by
| the view that while they might profit
| by the confidence of others confidence
| on their own part might involve them
| in losses.
"The real mischief is not the lack of
| confidence, but the lack OF any legiti-
| mate grounds for confidence and
there neither will be nor ought to be
| any revival or extension Of confidence
| o long as the volume of money con-
| tinues to shrink ana prices continue to
! fall"
| The gentleman from New York (Mr.
| Chittendenj on yesterday from his perch
| daughter and applause.) Mr. Crit
| tenden stood at the clerks desk while
| srcal5ingl announced to the country
| that loafers, gamblers and banllrupts,
! the worst clements OF society, favored
| the repeal of the resumption law.

many. crazy about single metallic
standard and the resumption of specie
payments. sits shivering ON the verge
OF national bankruptcy, France, with
every dollar of her war fine Cancelled,
with all her industries prosperous, is
now, seven years after her crush

The French government made paper
money leeal-teuder for all debts,pub-
lie and private-houored its own
money, The banking establishments
Of thes country loaned to the people
money in sufficient quantity TO carry
on their industries, and the people
were so prosperous that they in turn
rendered to their government the loan
OF four times the amount of money nee
essary to pay their war-debt
Such is France. that resisted the one
metallic-standard folly; such is the ma
ton that initiates rather than contracts
her currency, that never worries about
resumption, and at the same time has
in the vaults of her banks more gold
and silver than there is in the com

An amusing incident happened at Lo-

Marvin has for some years been devoted
to Miss Ida Rich Her parents opposed
the match, and finally the young people
determined to get married anyway, and
did SO. The next day they presented them
selves at the Rich mansion TO plead for
pardon, but the implacable father locked
his daughter in the cellar and brove
Marvin away with a gun. Marvin STAYED
up all night concocting plan for the res
sue Of his wife, and in the morning sent
word to his mOther-in-law to come and
get her daughters effects, as he relin-
quished all claim to her. She came, and
Marvin locked her up in his house, telling
her that she shopld be set at liberty when
his wife was. and not before. Two days
passed, and then old man Rich appeared
to open negotiations, an exchange of pris-
oners was soon effected and Marvin got
his wife. 1t is said that Marvin made such
good use, OF the opportunity, while he held

\ special dated. Camden, Oct. IS, to the
Charleston News and Courier, says: a Sc
rious shooing ARRAY took place here to-
day on the iron bridge across the Wateree
river, between ]. d. McDOWall of CAM
den and Joe Smith of West Wateree Mr.
Mcdowell was shot in four places, one
ball taking effect in the right arm just
above the elbow, one in his left hand, one
in his left hand, one in the left side and
one in the abdomen. Smith also struck
him three severe blows on the head with
knife handle, which he had clinched in
his hand. 1t is reported that Smiths coat
was struck with a ball from McDowalls s
pistol, hut the BAH did not touch the skin.
Five shots were fired By Smith and two or
three by McDowall. From the best infor-
nation 1 can gather the trouble arose
about the buying and selling of cotton
seed. Jim Smith, a younger brother of
Joe's, made use of some insinuatiug re-
marks to Mr.. McDowall yesterday, which
resulted In Mr.. McDowall jerking him
from his wagon and dealing him several
blows with his fist or a walking cane
About y o'clock to-day Joe Smith went to
the river where Mr.. McDowal has been
engaged for some time buying cotton
seed, and after addressing him in an ap-
parently pleasant manner told Mr. Nc
Dowall that he came TO get satisfaction
from him, and in a few seconds struck
McDowall across the head and, it is said
fred the first shot. Mr.. McDowall man
aged with the assistance Of Mr. b. J.
AmmOns, the bridge keeper, to hitch his
horses ara drive homo. Prompt medical
assistance was given him, and he is rest
ing easy as could be expected just now
The wound In the abdomen is the most
serious, and 1t is impossible to tell what
will be the result of il. Mr.. McDowall is
well known citizen of Camden, and is a
son-in-law of Gen. John D. Kennedy

bull, which he attempted to drive one

Madison Recorder: State Senator
Elect s. II. Peacock. who will represent
Taylor and Lafayette counties in the
next legislature, was in town last Satur-
day. From him we learn that the popu-
lists carried Taylor county by a very
small majority, but that the election was
clearly illegal in several precincts, which
would change the results in favor of the
democrats were a contest instituted.
DeLand News: About o'clock Tuesday
morning great excitement was caused in
the vicinity of Howry avenue by tree
falling on the residence of w. D. Haynes
and demolishing the west wing. Harri-
son Dixon was falling a tree in the yard
of s. Weller Johnston, when his eye
either fooled him or the wind went back
on him. At any rate the tree fell on the
west wing of Mr.. Haynes house, COM
pletely wrecking it. One large limb went
right through the roof, ceiling and plas-
tering, knocking everything to smither-
enes A very fine chamber suite was
in the room destroyed by the tree, but
it escaped entirely unhurt. Mr.. Haynes
little child was in the house at the time,
but no injury was done ii, or any one
else, beyond a scare.

Nature, within whose Kingdom lie the

domain that no one branch Is distinct or
Independent Of another. The scientist who
enters some OF her fields of study must post
himself upon all.
The botanist must seek his prehistoric

plants in zoology or chemistry.
The chemist finds his materials for work ia
the study of geology or Botany.
The sciences all depeud one upon the
other. and the successful scientist must
thoroughly understand each and its relation
to his chosen branch.
