like a bright stiki rivoliing in the

tirce of h; pp/ncss and gratification i
would have been to taku a peep
through his speoliides and saw thing*
as In lias seen them • his very heart
must throb w ith enviable delight.
Nothing is more oonveiH'ivc ol the r.d
dngo that “the signs of miming events
cast their shadows before them,"
though invisible to many, some, with
a gutt of inspiration, wo presume,
am permitted to see them.

in both real and personal property—
amlvaticing from 50 to 100 per cent
The “boom”of great nngnitu !e, thill
threatens to dovclop the u souri'i s of
our county, to au enormous extent.
The capitalist who threaten to line
our crocks and rivers, from one end
to the other, with mills and lactone*,
rfco, ifce.; brought about through
the instrumentality of ‘many a mark
ed copy of the Argus sent them, set
ting fortli and making known our ad
vantages.
Brother Smith has certainly im
mortalized himaell in the mind- of liis
people, for the grand aclicaviuents he
has accomplished. “Honor to him
to whom honor is due." Wo know
not oue, who has the least deslYe to
roh him of any of the laurels, he has
so justly won through his untiring
energies, and aught wo know, many
;t sleepless night.. But few men la*
bor so z adausly for thoir liiends and
country.
We aie sorry however, that he set s,
in the roar future perhaps, trouble
ahead tor somt or all ol as. He insinu
led i:i his last issue, “siotiona feeling
or a spirit of rivalry” or in other
wolds the county is likely to lie di
vidod against itself. We hope lie is
mistaken on tit’s point, and we h.ipe
tile citizens ol Butts will lake all pre
cautions to defeat any such unpleas
nntness, and le s all strive to complete
the great work ahead of us, m per
fect harm my.
Long may Brother Smith live in
the hearts of his countrymen.
A wretch more wicked than Gutieau
would he. if fully sane, held tlie hand
of a child in New Orleans a few days
ago, with a pistol in it, nnh pulled the
trigger and killed the woman he claim
ed as his wife, The woman was not his
wife, it has been ascertained, hut
greatly attaehod to him,and lie, before
having her shot induced her todood

Th emigration of colored i > ople
from ScaiDi <'aroliua to Arkansas
thrcfti eos to compile if o setiously al
tairs in tins State. At, tfiis time it is
in p acticable to tell to what is the
e<>< nl of the movement, hut is start -
ling to hear that already entire plan
tations have* been left without labor
ers, urn! ihat the euugiaots expect to
fare better in Arkansas than the)
have done in ties state. The colored
people who go to Alkalis::* will most
likely find that they have been im
posed on It will tho Azor project
over again. This, however, is no
consolation, |>ro*eiit or prospective,
ftie colored people are the founda
tion of the ngi louituial system of this
State. Wiilmui their labor a large
pail of the State would lemain un
cultivated until white emigrants could
be obtained to till the gap. While
laboi i is wou'd not be coot' nted with
the v age* mol rations that content
the colored people, a id. in seeking
white emigrants, South (.'arolina is
in active competition wilii ilit* whole
'Vest and most ol the Sentiurn
Stales. How nmi'li injury can he
done by the einigi illou of colored
peoplt is all *w n by Ilia alarm and ac
mill distress call ed by the exodus
from Lotisiana and .M s iss:ppi two or
tinee yean tigo. The blond ptopos -

Th<i i xpl inatii ns given by moot

l< spi'ud“lll limit, ol course, lie taken
with considerable allowance. The
colored people an improvident as a
eh'i'H, and when, at the end el tie
year, they Hud they owe as iniieli as
ihey have earned, they are apt to
attribute the result to unfair dealing
instead of to ti.esr own shifliesstiose.
The first tiling to he done is to gci
ill the truth and iay bare every sort,
whatever it is. South Carolina needs
add ll it iia! popululi n, and cannot at
lord (o lose a single working citizen.
And to keep the population we have,
and incre.'i-o it, every reasonable
grievance must be removed, and the
State he made as desira le Imme for
colored men as well as tho while man,
tor the laborer as well as the land
owner.
A Washington telegram to the
Cincinnati Times Star lias thu follow
ing : In one ol the looms til the Btl

are inolosi and in a glass ease, ami an ar

with an ii teresling history. They
were the |ir, pet ty ol (Jen. Twig<:s ot

United States govet nmn t, and cost
in round numbers SilO.nOtt ; another
was presentod hy the State ol Geor
gia at a cost of SIO,OOO, and the tliiid
by the city ol At anta at a cost ot S3,
000. The General was in oouiinatid ot
the confederates at the time General
Ben Buttler dropped down on New
Orleans and that section, and the lin'd
Benjaman took in the Sil."),ono worth
ot swotds, sending them here ns tro
phies ot war. They are very hand
some, the handles studded with dia
monds, and the Idftdi sot the finest
steel Here they have remained ev
er since, until a deceiulant ol Gen.
Twiggs is making an etlort to cause
them to be turned over again to the
fatuity- To accomplish this a bill
must bo gotten through Congress,
and to do this that same B n Buttler,
who captured the swords, is now
helping, heart ami hand. Odd, isn't
it.
