ing lands are good; they produce cotton,
corn, rice, tobacco and all the
general food and money crops of
the south. Fruit growing and
viticulture has been tried to some extent
with a profit that promises well for any
attention that is paid to it in the future.
Watermelons are probably raised by al
most every farmer along the line of the
F. c. and p road, in Barnwell county.
The people are Independent and thrifty.
They support home enterprise and offer
all the encouragement they can to strang-
ers to come and settle among them. They
have a good county and tine blessings of
Providence have been showered upon
them with a lavish hand, but there are
more than they can use and they are dis
posed to be generous with the rest
Artesian wells have been bored all
through this section and pure water may
be had at small expense where one does
not care to risk surface wells, though the
supply of the county forages has come
from these wells, and the people are as
healthy and free from fevers as any peo-
pie of the nation.
Stock raising was once the chief indus
try of the section in years gone by, and
the country now abounds in rich meadows
green the year round, where stock is pas
tured winter and summer. There is no
better grazing country to be found than
the land along the two Salkahatchies.
There are many opportunities for men
with capital to employ il profitaby here
and for young men with more energy than
capital to make their way in the world
They would be surrounded with good NOR
al influences and be thrown in the good
society of cultivated people.

Various Grades of Politeness.
From the Nineteenth Century.

The French have for long been esteem
ed a polite nation. and so they are as far
as outward forms are concerned; but
most travellers will agree that, except
within certain circles, there is more genu-
inc courtesy to be found between man and
man in Britain than In France. The av-
erage Frenchman will be profuse in the
bows which he win make on meeting an
acquaintance, but he will often not hest
tate, should the occasion arise, to sacrl-
flee others to his own personal comfort
l have seen foreigners at a public enter
tainment make ladies rise by bowling to
them, and then deprive them OF their
seats in the most polite and graceful man.
ner An Englishman, on the other hand,
will often do really kind-hearted deed in
such an abrupt and awkward fashion as
almost to give 1t the appearance Of an in
suit
The Spaniard habitually places his house
and everything in Il at the disposal of his
guest, but he would be greatly astonished
If he were taken at his word. stranger
calls upon Spaniard when he Is at din
ner The latter invites the stranger to
dine with him, or offers him something
which he may have admired. but unless
the dinner or article Is very much pressed
the invitation and the offer must be re-
garded I'm the light of mere. polite phrases
Under similar circumstances the Briton
would either not make the invitation or
offer, or, n he did, would do all he could
70 render the dinner or the gift accepta-
BILE TO the stranger. and would endeavor
to escape being thanked whereas the
Spaniard expects verbal gratitude for the
offer he has no intention Of fulfilling.
So far DO we carry this dislike of phrase
making that some Englishmen and wo-
men and II very difficult to give express
sion to the genuine gratitude they feel for
real benefits received; and there are some
men whose modesty Is so perverted that
they would, apparently, almost rather he
accused OF doing something positively
wrong than be suspected Of having yield
ed 70 O kindly sentiment.

Rough on BInckie.

The late Prof. Blackle used to relate
with great gusto the following story
against himself, and l do not think that
it has ever been chronicled in print, says
an exchange. AS every one knows, the
genial old professor used to be a pictur-
esque and striking figure in the streets Of
modern Athens.
a wiry-framed old patriarch, with strik-
ingly handsome features and long hair
that fell in ringlets about his shoulders,
no one once having seen him could forget
him. Passing along one of the princi-
pal Edinburgh streets, he was accosted
one day by very dirty little street gamln
with: Shine your boots, sir?"
The urchin was very importunate and
the professor. being impressed with the
extreme hlithiness of the boys face, re-
marked:
Il don't want a shine, my lad, but Ii YOU
go and wash your face I'll give you a SIX
pence"
"A RIGHT. sir" was the lads reply, and,
going over to an adjacent drinking foun-
tain. he made his ablution. Returning,
he held out his hand for the money.

ham, Il was afraid I would get my
husband into trouble"
Durham came in shortly afterward,
and Mrs. Rivers at once demanded that
he report the matter to the police.
This he refused to do until Mrs. Rivers
informed him that unless he did so she
would, whereupon Dunham consented,
and, accompanied by his wife and Mrs.
Rivers, placed the matter before Chief
Drew.
The police went to work on the case,
and it was not long before they located
the stolen articles in a pawnshop in this
city, the proprietor of which identified
Durham as the man who had pawned
them.
Durham then made the best Of bad
bargain, acknowledged to his wife that
he had taken the jewelry and asked and
received her forgiveness for doing so.
But this was probably the primary
cause which led up to the seXtuple mur-
Ger at Campbells, in Santa Clara Coun-
ty, last Tuesday night, and Durham
probably undertook to dispose of all
means by which his wife could return to
the home of her stepfather, which she
had threatened to do.
No other cause could exist, for while
iL this city Dunham had $1,000 in a
Stockton bank and several deposits in
banks in this city, which facts were
brought out in the lawsuit which his
wife and Mrs. Rivers waged against
Thieben.
Last week Mrs. Rivers sent a postal
order to Mrs. Dunham for the amount
due her after settling the lawsuit. The
amount was 50 80, but no acknowledge
ment was returned.
Mrs. Rivers says that Durham was
finely educated, and one of the shrewd-
est business men she ever met. Per-
scnally, she had never heard him use
hard language against anyone, and he
always conducted himself as a gentle
man should
No praise was too great for his wife.
Hattie. She was Sweet-tempered and
as true to her husband as the steel to
the magnet but she was firmness it
self. and could not be shaken in any
thing when she thought herself in the
right
She confided to Mrs. Rivers that she
had been in love with Dunham's s
brother, Charlie, before she married her
husband, but said she had banished
him entirely from her mind, and lived
Only for her husband.
And so ends the Sacramento chapter
to the most horrible tragedy the Pa
cific Coast has seen for many long
year.
