Where Did He Get It?
State, Nov 1e
The State has received the following

EDGEFIELD, y. VI, NOV, IL, u
To the Editor Of The !State-In your
issue Of the 18th inst. you in an .edi-
torial make charges against Governor
Tiitman which, if true, should be in
vestigated and shown up to the people
of South Carolina If untrue, the peo-
pie should knew that an honest man is
being DETAINED. and your intimatioos
should be corrected
First. It is fact that be has paid 10
cash for his recent purchase at Trenton,
Is. c., SO. 500?
Second. How many mortgages and
for what amounts, we're over his farms at
the time Of his election as Governor !!
How many of shese mortgages have
been cancelled siace he has been in
Office. aud 80 whom has the money been
paid? Il is in yeur power to answer
these questions from the public records,
il you are after the truth, and correct
or establish the ipsinuations you have
made.
(Dictated.) Yours respectfully.
j. b. DAVIS
We don'e know who j. B. Davis, of
Edge6eld, is. aud are quite unadvised
as to his right Of guardianship over
Governor TiIlman g integrity Our be-
lief is that B. R. Tillman is tweuty-one
years of age. Of unimpaired mental
powers, aud capable both of writing and
speaking at will; and we know that he
lives here in the city Of Columbia and is
the person most concerned in any ques-
tiou relating to his official integrity.
Nevertheless, we waive these considera-
tons and promptly publish Mr. Davis's
letter.
What The State said was this J:
..A correspondent at Trenton informs
us that the price of Governor Tillmau's
newly purchased farm in that neigh
borhood is $6.5o or 5000. When
Tillman started ont as reformer Of
..6shy things it is said that his farms
on the other side of the county we're
mortgaged for about $4,000 and that
be was so poor that his brother George
had to loan him the money to make his
campaign for Governor. Since that
time be bas received about $13,50O 10
salary. but the Indebtedness he entered
Office With has been discharged and be
can afford to buy a $4,000 estate
Here is an apparent profit of $16.5O0
on S13, 500 salary, less four years liv-
lug expenses. His excellency is thrift
ty; but, as the New York World used
to inquire about Boss Croker's money.
Where did he get it ~
It will be observed that Mr.. Davis
misquo,es The State in a somewhat
peculiar manner. We said nothing
about his having paid in cash for his
recent purchase at Trenton. (" Possibly
Governor Tillman has not paid "cash, !"
and may be able to prove that much.
Again: We said nothing about his
having had mortgages on his farms "at
the time of bis election as Governor. "
What we did allege was that it was said
that they were mortgaged for about
| $4,000 when be started out as re-
former Of '.6shy .hiugs'"-aud that
was some time before his election.

A Religious Act.

The fact that their business house was

They not only loose their profits by this

OF their customers by the inconvenience.
Such actions however will win and the
petty inconvenience will add to their
popularity. We are taught that religion
without sacrifice is not real religion,

HAD DELIGHTFUL TIME.-Mr.and
Mrs. D. F. Drenner gave a delight
full fishing party in honor of Miss
Estella Mullen, of Baltimore, who is
visiting in this city, on Tuesday last.
They drove to the Mouth of the
Opequon," where they cast
their lines in the wide Potomac
and waited for the bites that never
came. They made lots of noise, hay
ing with them several young cannons,
{boys, we mean,) which no doubt
accounts for the large number of fish
they caught. At noon an elegant
dinner was spread and all having
their appetites sharpened by the
fresh country air, made the good
things disappear very rapidly. They
stayed at the river until four o'clock
and then proceeded to the Sulphur
Lot at Bedington, where the young
folks INDUCED in the playing of out
door games, and where supper was
also served. They left the grove at
eight o'clock, singing many sweet
and familiar songs on their way, ar
irving at home about $50, very much
fatigued, but expressing themselves
as having spent a most delightful
time.
