KISSING NEGROES.
A DISGUSTING SCENE AT A RAILROAD
STATION IN HAMPTOM COUNTY,
[Ilamptom, (S, O.) Guardian.]
Last Friday morning’s Augusta
bound train rolled up to the depot at
McNeill’s on time, and the passengers
and those of the citizens congregated
there for business witnessed a
that either froze them with ■ ustoi l
xsstwz w = ' Jt
two Massachuset s S- • *
at the station to board the train,having
determined to go ••north” to spend
their summer vacation. The platform
was black and redolent with negro
men, women and children, the latter
composing the scholars of the institu¬
tion presided, over by these school
marms. The hour of parting having
arrived, the goodbyes to the adults
were most affectionately said as the
hearty hand shaking went round, and
sorrowful adieus were bidden* So far
the scene was interesesting, but when
the teachers reached the scholars the
exhibition became nauseatii g to those
witnessing it. The school-marms began
to kiss the little negroes with a relish,
and tor a short time the business like
“smack ! smack ! smack I” of oscula¬
tion went on, until the ruby lips of the
white instructresses had sipped the
nectar from the capacious mouths of
every blessed little African on the
platform and bestowed a number of
“busses” on the shining black faces of
negro women. The “toot-toot” of the
steam whistle resounded above the
kissing throng, the females stepped on
board the cars,and the train moved off.
If it was the intention of these females
to disgust the passengers and citizens
by this spectacle, tiny succeeded.
Such sights are new to people in South
Carolina, and they are not disposed to
indorse aid or abet the performers.
The female teachers are respectively
aged about nineteen and twentv-two
years. The name of one is Miss Carrie 1
E. Warren, of Newton Mas*., and the
other bails from Erving, Mass., and is
k „„w„ „ urn cur,
They are employed by some benevolent
society in the north, and no doubt re*
gard themselves as missionaries in a 1
benighted land; but for the sake 0 f
decency and good order they should '
not give any more public exhibitions «f
their love for the negro or practicle les
sons in social equaUy. We do not
think the society which employs them
will approve of this method of enlight¬
ening the blacks, and we are nut quite
prepared t believe, even after the dis
gustmg performance at McNeill’s Sta
tion, that trie people of Massachusetts,
as a whole, , , fond , of the southern
are so
black as these “downeast” scboolmarms
.
seem to ue.

Poison Oak.
Spartanburg, S. C.,March 13,1884.—
VTour most valuable medicine (Swift’s
Specific) has done me so much good
that 1 feel like saying this for I lie ben¬
efit of those who suffered like I did. I
was poisoned by poison oak, and saw
not a well day for six years, until I
used Swift’s Specific. In the six years
used most every kind of medicine,
but none had the desired effect. After
using six bottles of Swift’s Specific 1
am restored to perfect health—with no
sign of that awful poison left.

1 had for thirty eight years suffered
every spring and summer with poison
oak, which i contracted in bathing
when a boy. I tried everything for it,
including many physicians, but with
out any benefit. I took six bottles of
Swift's Specific (S. S. S.Jfour years ago
and it cured me sound and well. Three
summers ha ve passed, and I have had

BLOOD TAINT.
I was suffering lroiu Blood Poison
and Mercurial Rheumatism, and have
spent *300 for treatment with no btne
fit, and it seemea that I was doomed to
die. Caught at Swift’s Specific as
di owning man would at a straw, and
it has saved me from a horrible death,
and cured sound and well, It is the
greatest medicine in the world.

HORROR OF MINERAL POISONING.
Thousands of persons are poisoned in
America by the continued use of Mer
cury, Iodide of Potassium and other
minerals, for various diseases. The
Mercury works its way into the tissues,
producing rheumatism and decay lot
the bones. The Iodide of Potassium
eats away the coating of the stomach"
and dries up the gastic juices which di¬
gest the food, and the patient lingers
..long in agony or is glad to die to get
away from miseiy. Swift’s Specific is
a complete antidote to all this poison,
It eliminates Mercury from the system

What is the Cause.
Editors, as a rule, rarely ever agiee,
and consequently are continually at
loggerheads. They will take up the
same subject and discuss it in their col
uiniis, give it a thorough analyzing,
show up all the points, and if you will
take their articles and compare them,
there will always be some point of dis
agreement. There, are, of course, ex
ceptions to this as well as to all other
genera! rules, and we propose to give
an instance,where three Georgia editors
are unanimously of the same opinion :
The editor of the Southern World,
published in Atlanta, says : “1 know
the proprietors of Bradlield’s Female
Regulator, and can vouch for their
high standing in this community 1
also, from my own knowledge, can tes
tify that it is a great boon to women,
and has no superior, and every lady
ought to send for and read their nook
on female diseases, which they mail
fiee.”
The editor of the MilledgevilleChron
iele says he considers Bradlield’s Female
Regulator the greatest blessing ever
discovered for suffering women; says
lie knows of six ladies in his communi
ty who have been cured sound and well
by its use, and he would advise every
»»«' Eng wo.,.an to use it.
From the editor of the Gainesville
Eagle: •‘I consider ra i field's female
Regulator the best medicine ever com
—Z
* 1 am well acquainted with a lady
who never had any health until she
commenced using it. It gave her im
mediate relief, and from that time un
til now she has enjoyed the best of
health. I can say with hearty good
will, -God-speed Dr Bradiield in the
8il,e of his never-failing Female Kegu
■ lator.” -

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER
_
[From our regularCorrespondent.]
\\ AsmN'crox,D.C..lune 10th. 1881.—
This is the season of comnieneements
in Washington, and troni about the
middle of May to the middle of June
there averages at least one a d ay. They
are great occasions for the display of
(lowers, and the stranger asks win re do
they come from ? The fact is, Wash
ington is a city of parks and trees and
flowers, and the visitor at this season
is overwhelmed with the beauty and
loveliness that everywhere surrounds
him.
It is now stated that President and
Miss Cleveland will not occupy the
cottage at Soldiers’ home. They iu( ,
so well pleased with the White House
j and its surroundings, the beautiful
lawns and clusters of trees and floweis,
as well as all the delightful wallfS and
drives in and about the West End and
along the winding valley of Rock
Creek, and in fact hi eve.y direction
they may go, that limy feel that it
would be a matter of affection to leave
all this loveliness in the vain effort to
find something more enchanting.
With the beautiful attractions of the
Capitol, inviting to thoughts of peace,
plenty end paradise, there are now
gathered here about 450 representa
Lives ol the different societies of char
'ties and corrections throughout the
country,* who have met in National
Conventions to perfect plans h r the
good of the poor and the eon t ot ion of
those who made a falsej step in the
drama of life. As preliminary to tm
teriiig on their labors, they yesterday
visited Mount Vernon on the steamer
Corcoran. It w as a notable company ;
; ,11 but seven were men, and the major
ity of them were of those who have
spent many years of their lives m doing
good.
At this season Washington is the
Mecca to which all the devotees ol love
and matrimony Hock, and there is not
iV train or a boat that arrives that does
not bring from one to a dozen newly
wedded couples, or couples who, lleeing
from old inaid aunts,heartless brothers,
ov »r particular parents, find hero the

occasionally from the land of many
marriages they come, as was recently
the case from Monnondon). In this
case the delegation was composed of
Monogamists who insist they are

statements are cmivet it would appear
that such is the case. They insist that
the Edmunds law is less ini ringed by
Mormons I h an others, while it is only
executed against the former, They

pK who practice polygamy in their

thousands outside, who, il they do not
profess, practice polygamy* anil they
ask that a thorough investigation be

Yes, that is so. It is sad, but natural.
Why, many a man and woman, seeing
employment, would have got it if their V

bottle of Parker’s Hair Balsam is then
the best investment. It stops falling

color. Clean, highly perfumed, not a
