New County Names.

1t is important that the discussion of
the names of the proposed new couneS
shall continue. These names should be
significant anI cuphoMiouS. Objection
has been raised To- the name Limestone.
and we think Il better one might b.
selected. We suggest Il revival of the
once familiar name OF Pincliney. In
1871 all that part OF South Carolina en-
hacing FORK, Chester, Spartanburg AMI

Pinckncy. For many Years this Pmck-

district and an equity district. Later on
the name WAS dropped. ana those of cx-

quite appropriate to give the name to
the new county to br erected from por-
tons of this old district. The name C.t

We note some slight difference between their speech and ours. Their voices are higher and sharper. and they are more up to date as to slang. l am afraid that in our heart of hearts we feel ourselves little superior in re- pose of manner, for the rollicking enjoy ment of the ordinary American when on a holiday in Nova Scotia is, perhaps, too evident But when the patience with which they endure many inconyenienoes, the zest with which they enter into any pleasures that come in their way, and the good will with which they are ever ready to help any charitable scheme which may be afoot in place where they are staying are put in the scale against the londness which sometimes offends us, the trifling peculiarity kicks the beam U

why Some Glasses Are Called rumblers.

Why Some Glasses Are Called Plumbers.
 Every day we drink out of tnmbler. Why is the large glass that holds our milk and water so called? Years ago Professor Max Muller was giving a luncheon at All Souls college, Oxford. to the Princess Alice, the wife of the Grand Duke of Hesse- Darmstadt and the There were not dozen guests besides the princess and her husband, and Q very agreeable luncheon was had, with talk on all kinds of interesting subjects
 But what excited the curiosity of all strangers present was set of little round bowls of silver, about the size of a large orange. They were brought round filled to the brim with the famous ale brewed i'll the college These, we are told, were tumblers, and we were speedily shown how they came by their names--a fitting lesson for the guests of philologist. When one of these lit tie bowls was empty, it was placed up- on the table mouth downward. Instant ly, so perfect was it's balance, it flew back to its proper position as if asking to be filled again No matter how it was treated-trundled along the floors, balanced carefully on it's side, dropped suddenly upon the soft, thick carpet-up it rolled again and settled itself with 8 few gentle shakings and swayings into its place, like one of those india rubber tumbling dolls babies delight in.
 This, then, was the origin Of our word tumbler, at first made of silver, as are all these All Souls tumblers. Then, when glass became common, the round glasses that stood on flat base super seded the exquisitely balanced silver spheres and stole their names so success fully that you have to go to All Souls to see the real thing.

4 FAMOUS EPlTAPH.
1t Marks In Poughkeepsie the Grave of a
 Self Exiled Englishnan.

1t Marks In Poughkeepsie the Grave of a
 Self Exiied Englishnan. There are some interesting epitaphs in the old graveyards in Poughkeepse, but probably none of them has been so wide ly known and admired as that on the stone which marks the burial place of John Taylor in front of Christ church, on Academy street. This epitaph has been widely published on both sides of the ocean, it is said, and is believed to have been written by the English poet William Roscoe and sent over for his friend Taylor's grayestone. Yet the stone lies neglected, and the last three lines of the epitaph have been broken off, probably during the work preceding the building of the new church. The epitaph was published ill Benson J. Lossing's book on "Yassar College and Its Founder, :" and was greatly admired and frequently quoted by Matthew Vas sar, Jr., as many of his friends remem= Der. The inscription and epitaph on the stone are as follows:

The last line is one that has been par ticularly admired and frequently quoted, and it is gone from the stone, which is broken off just after the fourth line from the end. That this stone should have been so mutilated seems little short of vandalism. John Taylor is said to have come to this country about the same time that the Yassar family came. shortly after the close of the American Revolution, and at time when the English government was repressing all outspoken friends of reform in fear of a repetition in England of the French revo- lution. He was the uncle of Mir Hudson Taylor. and the greatuncle of Mr. Rob- ert k. Taylor. His father, Dr. John Tay- Tor. was a very prominent man in Eng land, with many influential friends, one of whom was the poet Roscoe, who wrote the epitaph, which reminds one very much of some of Goldsmith's best lines. -Poughkeepsie Eagle.

Pace, jester to Queen Elizabeth, was so bitter in his retorts upon her that he was forbidden her presence. After he had been absent for some time few of his friends entreated her majesty to re- ceive him back into favor, engaging for him that he would be more guarded in his discourse for the future. The very first time they again met. Pace was as bad as ever. Come on, Pace, , said the queen, in her gracious humor, "now we shall hear of our faults.

PINE BLUFF. ARK, JAN. 30. 1896
LARGEST DAILY CITY CIRCULATION,


 Rock have resoIuted not to support any candidate for the National con- ventien or for State office who is not well-defned 16 to l silver Demo- crat. This is all wrong, and the time will come when the aforesaid League will see the error of it's way. There ought to be reason in all things. We regard the resolutions as not only untimely, but unreason- able. More anon.
 The above paragraph is from our esteemed evening contemporary, the Commercial, of yesterday. The Com mercial, we believe, is a free silver paper, but it is not silvernatic; in other words, it is not free silver lunatic. It believes in reason and rhyme in everything, and there is no logic, sense or reason in the res olutions of the Little Rock Free Sil- yer Club. It is all very well for the State Democracy to declare for free silver, if the majority of the eonyen
 
 tion is for free silver, and, if this is a free silver State, as it is, it is we'll to make silver an issue in the cleo tion of Congressmen and United States Senators, but what have the members of the Legislature, the county officers and township consta- bles and magistrates to do with the silver question? They can exert no more influence on National legisla- tion than the man in the moon, and if the silvernatics are determined to read all out of the party who do not concur in their extreme views, they are inviting defeat at the com ing election. There is no reason or excuse for lugging the silver issue into the campaign for county and State officers. The Democratic party stands for principles vastly more important to the people than the silver question, and there is enough in common in the Demo cratic platform for all Democrats to stand on utterly regardless of the silver issue. To create divisions and discord in consequence of differ ences on the financial question in this State would be disastrous and suicidal. When our party is divided, both National and State, on the sil- yer question, it would be well for the State candidates and the candi- dates for the State Legislature to address themseves to State issues and reforms. If State candidates would pay more attention to State issues and less to National questions the biennial sessions of our State Legislature would be more fruitful of beneficial and important results.
 The trouble has heretofore been that candidates for the Legislature in their campaigns have addressed themselves to National issues in- stead of State issues, and when they have come to exercise the functions of their offices, their knowledge of needed State Legislation and re- forms has been woefully lacking. This will largely account for the in efficiency of our State Legislatures. Therefore, what we need aud want this year is an intelligent campaign from Governor down solely directed to State issues and much needed re- forms. The National Democratic Convention will fully settle the financial question on July ', and in the meantime, it would be we'll for Democrats not to get themselves so far from their party that they cant L --I.N
