AUGUSTA. QA.:
Tuesday Morning, November 16,1876.
Go Feel What I Have Felt.
A young lady in New York, was in the
habit of writing on the subject of temper
ance. Her writings were full of pathos, and
evinced such deep emotion of soul that a
friend accused her of being a maniac on the
subject of intemperance, whereupon she
wrote the following touching lines:
Go feel w hat I have felt,
Go bear what I have borne—
Sink ’neath the blow a father dealt,
And the cold world’s proud scorn;
Then suffer on from year to year—
Thy sole relief the scorching tear.
Go kneel as I have knelt.
Implore, beseech and pray—
Strive the besotted heart to melt,
The down vvard course to stay—
Be dashed with bitter curse aside,
1 our prayers burlesqued, your tears defied.
Go weep as I have wept
O’er a loved father’s fall,
See every promised blessing swept—
Youth’s sweetness turned to gall.
Life’s fading flowers strewed all the way,
That brought me up to woman’s day.
Go see what I have seen.
Behold the strong man bow—
With gnashing teeth—lips bathed in blood—
And cold and livid brow;
Go catch his withering glance and see
There mirrored his sours misery.
Go to thy mother’s side,
And her crushed bosom cheer,
Thine own deep anguish hide,
Wipe from her cheek the bitter tear;
Mark her worn frame and withered brow;
l he gray that streaks her dark hair now;
With fading frame and trembling limb,
And trace the ruin back to him
Whose plighted faith in early youth
Promised eternal love and truth;
But who, foresworn, hath yielded up
That promise to the cup,
And led her down through love and fight,
And all that made her promise bright—
And chained her there, ’mid want and strife.
That lowly thing—a drunkard’s wife—
And stamped on childhood’s brow, so mild,
That withering drunkard’s
child?
Go hear, and feel, and see, and know,
All that my soul has felt and known—
Then look upon the wine cup’s glow;
See if its beauty can atone—
Think—if its flavor you can try,
When ail proclaim ’tis drink and die?
Tell me I hate the bowl?—
Hate is a feeble word!
I loathe—abhor—ray very soul
Witn strong disgust is stirred
W’hen’er 1 see, or near, or tell
Uf that dark beverage of Hell.

There are many groans in Edgefield

While there are no acts of violence
taking place within her bounds, there

Winnsboro News; A call meeting
of the merchants and citizens was held
in the Town Hall Thursday night.
Capt. Beaty being called to the chair,

Union-Herald: Tbs grand jury of
Georgetown county found ten indict
ments, which were brought iu against
the late County Commissioners, James
M. Lesesno (colored), Henry Joy and
It. O. Bush, for malfeasance in office.
To these indictments they pleaded
guilty. The grand jury found true bills
against the present County Commis
sioners, J. Harvey Jones, Joseph Bush
and C. Rutlege, for official misconduct;
also, true bills for riot against W. H.
(red-hot) Jones, J. H. Jones, and fifteen
others.
Col. Capers, on Friday last, by Invi
tation, addressed the assemblage at
the State Fair, in a practical, common
sense speech. He informed his hearers
of the truo object of State Fairs, which
was to encourage and promote econ
omy and industry and improvement in
agricultural and mechanical pro
jects. He told them the epoch of
despondency was past, and that
it was their duty to rise to a better
manhood and a better womanhood.
The Colonel cited what one lady,
Mrs. Lindsay, of Abbeville, had done to
make the Fair a success, and hinted
that if there were more Mrs. Lindsays,
it could not fail to be one. The speaker
made no political allusions. His effort
was directed to encourage the mem
bers of the society and their friends to
keep the Agricultural and Mechanical
Association intact and work to make it
a success.
Ex- Gov. Bonham, referee to consider
the validity of claims against Edgefield
county, made his report to the court on
Wednesday last. More than five hund
red claims have been proved. The grand
jury have recommended that ex-Couu
ty Commissioner Sam’l J. Lee be in
dieted for issuing checks to parties for
building bridges in the Mountain Creek
section, where there are neither
bridges nor contractors. They also
presented the Sheriff, Clerk of Court
and Probate Judge for incompetency.
An indictment was given to the grand
jury against Paris Simkins for forgery,
upon which they found no bill. Another
warrant is said to be out for him, but
has not been served. An iron safe,
that cost the county of Edgefield
§l,lOO was afterwards sold by the
County Commissioners to J. F. Harling
for §IOO.

General Fitzhugh Leo wrote, after
acknowleding the invitation to a Rich
mond celebration, his inability to be
present on the occasion : “Though an
old cavalryman, I find it no trouble to
get along with artillery fellows, and
wish I could be with you when your
guns (and mouths) open on the 9th in
stant. The Norfolk Blues and I have
seen the spot where Major General
Joseph Warren fell, and I had such a
good time that ever since I have had a
partiality for the places where people
felt”
A gauger at St. Louis, Col. John W.
McFall, wrote a cutting letter to Secre
tary Bristow, some months ago, ten
dering his resignation. In that letter
be set forth the temptations to which
a &B.U&QT is subject, and he gloried iu
S5 strength by which he had re
staled all attempts to bnbe him made
bv wicked distillers. P. S.—Col. McFall
has just pleaded guilty to nine indict
ments found against him for complicity

Langley, S. C., April 14, 1873. i
The Kitson Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.:
Gentlemen . F have been running your system of Compound Opener Lappers and
Finisher Lappers, witn Eveners, lor more th in two wars oast. at. the <Jetton Mill oi tne
Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the most satisfactory of
any opening and picking arrangement I have ever suen. we have not weighed a pound
of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, yet we have had a remarkable regularity
of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it leaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very complete. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con
siderations with this arrangement is its secur ty against fire. . .
Yours, Ac., M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent.
