A Sensible Business Man.

An editor makes many clippings
from his exchanges which never see
the light Of day through his own
columns. This is because he can not
find room for all. They become buried
by other extracts being filed on top Of
them, hidden away and finally lost
sight of altogether, or become useless
on account of age. The other day we
came across a paragraph that had
shared this fate. 1t must be several
years old, and we do not recall the
paper from which it was taken, but
think it was the Warrenton Gazette.
However, it is too good to be lost and
so we give it space here, with the sug-
gestion that other business men might
follow the example Of Mr.. Watkins
with profit to themselves. The extract
in question is as follows:
Mr.. Sam Watkins, of Henderson, who
is both progressive and level headed,
told us a day or two since that he made
it his duty, as u business matter, to
spend seventy-five or one hundred
dollars every year with his town and
county paper. Said he: "No town of
any pretentions or business can possibly
do without Il local newspaper; the news
paper can not live or be efficient without
the moral and pecunary support of the
citizens generally, and the business men
ESPECIALLY. knowing this to be fact,
| act accordingly, and know my money
is we'll spent, not as a charity but bust
ness. | do not stop to ask myself
whether or not like the editor or dislike
him; this does not enter into my calcu-
lation. The point with me is to benefit
my town, my county and myself, and
do this when | aid my newspaper
There is much solid sense in this state
ment. 1t is worthy of consideration.

Paw Your Home Merchant.

Ii the GOLD LEAF is a stickler about
any one thing it is about patronizing
home merchants and supporting home
enterprises and institutions. 1t has
advocated this policy in season and
out of season. 1t does not believe in
sending money away for things that
can be spent to just as good advantage
here among our own people. This is
not the way to bnild up business, to
encourage local talent or foster manu-
featuring industries. Nor is it right to
go to your home merchant for credit
and then spend your ready cash else
where. The following from the Chenoa,
Illinois. Gazette, is timely:
All who possibly can should assist the
home merchant. The few dollars you
owe him will help him to fulfill his engage
ments. If there be a class of people who
suffer in times of financial depression, it
is the local merchant. He has accom-
modated you. and all who owe should
reciprocate. Those who buy on credit
often forget that the merchant may have
a hundred or more doing the same thing,
and these small accounts in the aggregate
have crowded hundreds into bankruptcy
during the past year. Think OF these
things and puy your home merchant.

Horner would open school of high
grade for young ladies on September
9Th. They are negotiating for the
College property and while the plans
are not yet fully matured we think we
may safely say they will open there at
the time mentioned. Those who know
these ladies will not question the sue
cess of the institution in their hands.
Their acknowledged ability, culture
and accomplishments, coupled with
their training and experience as
educators thoroughly fit them for the
work in hand. They will have
competent assistants in the various
departments Of instruct on, and the
faculty will be strong one at every
point, such as to commend the lnstitu-
ton to the confidence and patronage of
the public.

organize an independent move-

another chance to DO returned to

to believe that Senator Butler and
his friends, many of whom have
proved thoir manhood, courage
and patriotism, in war and in
peace, would entor upon venture
50 fraught with evil to the Senate
Senator Hampton in 1878 declared
that "an Independent was worse

which inspired this forciblo ex-

the word bo again passed down the
line, can Independent is worse

An l II d epond ont movement

Shall whito mon be ruled by ne

dominated by ignorance and vico?
Shall we have negro judges presid-

Carolinians bo again subjected to

'ation experienced by them in tho
dark days of Radicalism? If not,
then rise up in your might and

Boy CnARAcTER.-Tt is tho
greatest dclusion in the world for
n boy to get the idea that his life
is no consequence, and the charac-
ter Of it will not be noticed. A
manly truthful boy will shine like
Il star in any community. A boy
may possess as much fof noble
character as 4 man. He may 50
speak and 50 live the truth that
there shall DO no discount on his
word. And there are such noble
boys; and wider and deeper than
they are apt to think is their IN
nuoncc. They aro the king among
thcir fellows, having an immense
influence for good, and loved and
respected because Of the simple
fact of living the truth.
Dear boys, do be truthful.
Keep your word as absolutely

at the house Of God. Be known
for your fidelity TO-. the interests
of the Church and Sabbath-school
BE true to every friendship. Help
others to be and do good.

THE PHILIPS DkOAN SONG

Oh! that l could but sing like
the Angels in Glory,
I'd shout hallelujah to the Lamb
that was slain,
I'd shout and I'd sing, and I'd
praise my RedeemerJ
Rejoice in his goodness exalt and
eXtol him,
And tell to the world what n Sa-
viour I've found.
Como yo Methodists and Baptists
and Presbytorlans,
Let's all JOIN in one and engage
against sin,
BY fasting and praying and watch
ing and striving,
And reading the scriptures exhort-
ing and hearing
The gospel sweet sound and tho
work will begin.
Come poor sinners enlist undor
jesus your Saviour,
Or you'll burn forever in torment
and pain,
Behold now's the time whilo the
Gospels Astounding,
Saying how long ye simple, ye
scornful and foolish,
Will you take delight and go on in
your sin.
Oh if you will refuse to return
from your SHINING,
I bid you udieu in the bowels of
love.
[ am bound to 60 on in the strength
of my jesus,
And walk in his footsteps and fol-
low his precepts
Until I arrive at the Heaven above.

Lawyers in tho Dispcnsury case

There was considerable talk and
speculation here to-day about the
latest turn in the dispensary liti-
cation. AS the Court and every
one else ought to want all the light
possible Oh the subject thero ought
to be no provocation for a sugges-
ton that the "Charleston lawyers"
are crowding things. No one
ought to have such an idea, and
Attorney General Buchanan isable
to handle the case with OH array of
lawyers against HIM. He has kept
up with all the law on the subject,
and will make a good argument.
The lawyers who arc now in the
case are Woodward: & Chafee, of
Aiken, and Mitchell & .sNth and
J. P. K. Bryan, of Charleston,
with Mr.. Buchanan looking out
for the State. In either of the
cases the constitutionality of the
law will be fully developed. The
injunction against State Treasurer
Bates is based upon tho constitu-
tionality Of the law.
INJUNCTION AGAINST TREASURER
BATES.

follows:

It is further ordered, on motion

SPECULATION AS TO THE DECISION.
The general impression herea
bouts is that the Court will romair
III the city until the decision OF
the Court is announced. It may
be that vorbal statement of the
decision of the Court will bo made
after consultation, and that the
final and full opinion will be filed
later.
There is possibility that the
Court will, when it meets, file the
opinion in the Charleston-Berkeloy
County case. 1t would bo in the
interest of all parties if the docis-
ion was filed soon,
