In 1870, Hon. Marcus Morton, Demo.
crat, and Hon. Edward Everett, Wing,
had a close and exciting race for the
Office of Governor of Massachusetts,.
1t required the official count to deter
mine the result, and it was finally ascer-
tanned that Mr.. Morton was elected by
majority of one, in total poll of
over 1000 votes. He was inaugu.
rated without protest and served out
the official torn. Had the modern can
wasting board tactics boen in vogue in
those days, it is altogether probable
that tine Hon. Marcus Morton would
have whistled for his office, and
whistled in vain. ;

According TO the New York Evening
Post, the break in the solid South, as
shown by the recent election, is one Of
the most striking and encouraging
results of the election. 1t shows, in

sectional issue has disappeared, and
that the people in that part of tho
country have at last begun to divide
according to thoir views on tho ques
tons Of to-day, and not according to
race lines growing out Of slavery"

On the 10Th of September l79G, Wash
ington published his farewell address.
This address marks the last OF the Cen
tennials commemmOrating the RcvO!u-
tionary period. 1t is difficult for us TO
conceive so august person as WasblnS-
ton nov; seems to us. whose wisdom and
patriotism gathers brightness as time
passes on, the fierce enmitieS that found
expression prior to his retirement. He
was compared to the tyrant, Julius Gaze
sal, to the dcspotic Sultan of Turkey.
He was even accused of overtlrawing his
salary. Public addresses were held in
many of our cities and towns dehouncing
in bittcrest terms, his signature of the
Jay Treaty with England.
He was even burned in etfigy upon the
streets of Charleston, in hot he:.'ied
south Carolina. Jefferson records that
Washington became SO eXaslerated at the
malcdictionS and false accusations heap
ell upon him that ut Il cabinet meet
ing he lost his Sclf-control, and in Il
fit of passion and with an oath declared
that he had rather he in his grave than
to he lreSi,len: of such Il people.
Since the great father and defender of
our country was subjected to such vio!-
cnt vitupcrations, il does seem we should
keep the solemn warnings in his farewell
address against the dangers OF partisan
| rancor. But alaS! Human nature Is al
ways the same and history is cvcr.repcat-
| ing itself. And we see our rulers malirn-
| cd and abused by Disgusting politicians
and demagogic newspapers, to such a
degree that many of our good men seem
to lose the power to think and act for
I Sl"mSrlvcS and like the Fphcsians peISc-
cutting lnc ,Aw,stle Paul: they know not
wherefore they are come together.
How will our present leaders appear a
! hundred ycllS from now. when mSts
of partisan blindness shall have cleared
away and every man shall be seen in his
true light? Will not Evans he Il true
nan: Will not the great Tillman Ike Il
s.,nEd WaShinnton in the galaxy of his

Unjust freight Chargce.

The cities of Greenvillc, Anderson,
Spartanburg, and VIC night add
Union, arc engaged in the Important
subject of just freight rates. The
Southern Railway has them at its
mercy, there are no competing iacs,
and contrary to law it charges the
merchants and farmers higher rates
than it does the merchants and
farmers Of other points, where there
arc competing lines. 1t is also making
IRE; .,r charges for short hanlS than
it does long lnuls, which is contrary
10 law. Every one is interested in
this matter, because if the mcrc"'nt
..rts his goods choap, lie can s,H ihcm
to tie cou4umer cheap. consequently
every person IS bcEc!itted ~ cheap
and lust rates. We would suggest
that the citizens of | mon form some
kind Of j business league, and It's: n
