"Ground Hog Day."

Next Tuesday, the 2nd of February,
says the Yorkville Enquirer, is Ground
Hog Day." and the weather prophets
will be on the lookout to see what kind
Of day 1t will be. If cloudy there will
be an early spring; If clear it means that
there will be late spring and mnch
cold weather yet. The tradition is that
II the ground hog sees his shadow when
he comes out Of his hole he will 90 back,
but II he does not see his shadow he will
know there is not going to be much more
cold weather and will stay out. Some
people believe in this ground hog theory,
some do not; but most everybody who
happens to remember the day will be on
tho look out to see what the weather
promises, believers and non believers.

Confederate Records Missing.

In letter from Col. j. P. Thomas,
published in the News and Courier 9th
inst he declares the fact that some of
the Confederate Records gathered, COL
lected and compiled by him during his
term Of Office as Estate Historian of
Confederate Records have been lost or
misplaced. That when he retired from
office he placed these records, bound and
unbound. in the Office of the Adjutant
General in the special care Of THAT officer.
Search has been made for these records
without success, that all Of these records
are Of the greatest historical value, and
cannot be duplicated as many were the
Confederate rolls. The legislature will
have to take the matter in hand.

you may put In something that rubs too

It is bard to start yourself to say things.
You stand In moro danger Of getting q

also some good and considerate ladies

The United Daughters of the Confed-

sand dollars for the JEFF Davis Monu-

In caring for the grounds surrounding
the monument. The monument is to be
Peri style or Colonade, committing of
thirteen columns, each column repre-
senting State Of the Southern Confed-
eracy, bearing the name of that State
and the important events In its history,
from the time Of its settlement up to the
date Of its secession from the United
States, this Is intended to be the justifi-
cation Of tho secession. For that reason
the figure of Jefferson Davis, which is
to be eight feet high and to stand upon
a pedestal, will point with extended fin-
ger to this record. Back of Davis will
stand q female allegorical figure, called
tho Vindicatrix, z feet high, upon the
summit Of . column 66 feet high, with
finger pointing Heavenward."
Work on this monument is expected
to be begun next July. This monument
will not only be q Jefferson Davis monu.
ment, but will commemorate for all fu-
ture ages tho struggles, hardships, priva-
lions, vslor and heroism, the cherished
principles for which the South fought,
the true patriotism of the people who
dared to throw OF the gaulipg yoke Of
oppression and place upon the brow of
their beloved land the crown Of indie.

senting tho three branches of the Con-
federate array, namely, Infantry, Artil-

than for one to engage in the business
himself, owing to the management.

Gov. Heyward's Special Message.

Some of our Northern contemporaries
speak their approval Of the special mes
sage against lynchiug sent by Gov. Hey
ward to the General Assembly. The
Brooklyn Standard Union says:
"He should get both the law and fund
if necessary. South Carolina cannot
afford to be classed with States like Mis-
sissippi and others in the Southwest
where barbarism toward the negro is the
rule"
Our contemporary could have added
with equal propriety, Delaware and other
Northern and Northwestern States that
would embelish the. same category as
the allegations places Mississippi and
other Southwestern States.

AS this is q proposed amendment to the

opportunity Of voting on the question at

that our legislature is to meet every two

GR1NDALL, Jan. 27.-Many have
been spared to see the beginning Of
another year, all Of whom will ever
remember the one just passed, for
there was perhaps more loss Of lives,
more damage to personal property Of
their State than it's history can re-
late; the signs Of part of this will
long be seen on the banks of Pacolet
river. Many were hurled all unpre-
pared into eternity to meet their
dreadful fate, which ought to be .
lesson to the living human family.
On account Of the steady cold
weather wheat is late in coming up,
one can hardly see it by walking
across the field, yet some say this
will be q fine wheat crop year. I
have seen much colder weather than
has been this winter, for the river
has not been frozen over as yet, yet
the temperature has been more uni
form than / ever saw 1t, also the
river, on account OF dry weather, is
lower than many people ever saw 1t
at this season Of the year.
