The dentil Inst week, of ex-presidont
Samuel J. TiMen, is anggistivn of the
following train of reflection. Ilnd it not
been for bin overwoening patriotism in
peremptorily refusing the democratic
nominution in 1884 upon tlio idea thnt
bn wonlil not live out the term, bn with
Hendrick*, would have been nominated
and elected; and now, both being dead,
the government would be in the bauds
of the defeated Republican party.
Mob Law.
Just at tliia particular time, wo feel thnt
it would not bo out of plnco to put our
self on record on tlio subject of mob law.
Tbero is, in the tuiuda of many good
and ustmlly law übidiug citizens of the
couuty, a strong realization of the tri
umph of villany and tbo impotence of
law, growing out of tbo recent burglary
of Mr. Mosely’ii safe. A great crime has
been perpetrated in our midst, and the
law has failed to punish thn perpetrators.
And there is a strong under-current of
feeling, that a bit of rope in the proper
bauds might aid powotfuily iu tlio mat
ter. But do our rush friends reflect that
the law's failure is for the waut of evi
dcooo of guilt/ Ouo .of the perpetra
tors is pretty well known, but tbo law
has not got him, neither has the mob.
"There is catching before hanging.” If
be should be oaußlit, lot the law Unit try
its hand ou him, before resorting to vio
lence. Eveu then, would it not be bet
ter that bo should go soot freo, and this
uupamlhlod burglary go unpunished,
than that it should bo avenged by tho
commission of a murder? Justice would
uot be udvnuoed, but trampled upon,
by the punishment of one who cannot
be proveu to be guilty. Let our friends
make haste to go slow iu this matter.
Let the recent banging of Moore iu Ms
eon, for a revolting crime, furnish no
precedent for our good oitiaeus to pun
ish a diabolical crime by the commission
of a greater.

CORRESPONDENCE.
Fortner Scrap*.
The little babe of Dennis Durdon it
quite »iuk.
Our hearts were saddeued on the 7th
by the news from Perry's Mills, of the 1
death of Mr. Kvau Ricks's wife. She ,
had only beeu married about 10 mouths.
They lived near hero until a few mouths j
ago, when they moved to Tutuall county
where ahe died suddeuly, her parents
knowing nothing of her illucsa. The.
sad news mast have been bard to bear.
No, ‘‘Scrappie” has uot quit oorre
attending. When '‘Scrap" tells you that
the uews will be aout each week, unless
sickness prevents, it will be seut.
The advents near here closed their
meeting on the Bth. There was a large
nud attentive crowd out. ou Sunday.—
Elder MeGaheo, of Avory. aud elders
Thompson and Haunts, of Augusta, wore ;
all down, and we flud them very able
ministers. All seemed to eujoy thern
sellves, as the weather was beautiful and
phasauL
Messrs. Donu and Smith left for An-!
gusts a abort tune ago, with a drove of |
boef cattle. The market is said to be
very dull. Some who bare earned cat
tle down and returned, ora trjiog to loan
their money out, and they ask so much
interest that people fill like they have
no money to loan. Adieu until next
week. KAP '
Masonry.
I propose to devote a sow articles to
Craftsmen, and tlie letter G, In order
o got at a proper understanding of the
matter, wo shall have to refer to the
first Book of Kings. Here we find the j
first worshipers of the (Jod of Nature :
among the nations of the East presented
the supreme being under symbol repre
sented by the sun and moon. From the
influence of these bediesupon tho earth,
the adoption of these and other symbols,
were dangerous to true religion, the eye
of the bigot, the ignorant, and ontbnsist,
seeing these w ithout the light of under
standing, would readily adopt the type
for the origional, hence an error, and
idols multiplied, and in time, the orig
inals were lost sight of. And here the
second darkness in religion was intro
duced, and became darker than the
first.
Moses had learned from the Egyptians,
and the wise men of the East the trnth
us it is in God, hence ho could compre
hend the light from the darkness, and he
taught the people of Isreal to worship
the true God. And this was the second
era of tho true worship, and from the
best data that I can obtain, here cont
ra-nees tho second stage of masonry;)
for sacred writ informs ns that the dark
ness was felt, by prophet, preistand king,
but the revivul of the true worship woo
hailed with delight by tho psalmist, and
his son HolomoD, who built a Temple
for the second race of servants of the
true God. The xliv cb.of Ezekiel says
something about the Eust gate, (the
reader may be instructed by consulting
that chupter.)
We flud in the first Book of Kings
thut Hiram sent his servants unto Solo
mon, and Bolomon sent to Hiram, and
Solomon raised a levy out of all Isreal,
of thirty thousand men, and Adoniram
was over tho levy. Ten thousand each
month were sent to Lebanon. There
were seventy thousand thnt drew water
and bore burdens. These last were
kuown as apprentices. Eighty thousand
hewers of wood, or craftsmen, and we find
three thousand and three hundred of
ficers that superintended the work, aud
large, oostly, hewn stones laid the foun
dation of the house and the stone sqnor
ors, (or mauler*) were called Gibililes.
And in elevon years the house was com
pleted. This is the first temple, aud it
stood four hundred and twenty four
years, and was destroyed by Nsbuobad
nezer. The, science of Geometry dis
played in the building of this bouse, was
duo to the skill of Hiram the widow’s
son. Aud not tho sound of the hum
mer was allowed to disturb tho sacred
■qlenoe on Moriah. Now let us read
from 11. Baniuel xii : 13,16.
r Now let us return to our letter G. To
apply its signification to Hie name of
God only, would deprive it of some of
its masonic import.
This letter denotes Geometry, and to
masons, denotes tho determination, de
finition and proof of tho order, beauty
and wonderful wisdom of the power of
God iu his creation.
Lot ns now return and see, if we can,
from whence this science sprung. That;
it arose iu the East is not seriously )
doubted, aud from the east spread to the j
western countries. This brings us to
Pythagoras. Thut he journeyed eastward
iu search of knowledge is true, and to
throw it little light ou this subject, we
may with profit examine an ancient writ- j
nig preserved with great respect by Brit- ;
ish musons, said to be the liuud writ- j
ing of King Henry VI., about tho year
: 1422,
Aud that this learned Pythagoras trav
eled and made masons is ti ne, nud that
he understood the science of Geometry
is proveu by an old history that says ‘‘he
made every Geometrical theorem a se
cret, and admitted sneb only to a knowl
edge of them as hud first undergone a
five yeurs silence. He is supposed to be
the inventor of the 47th Problem of
Euclid, for which in the joy of his heart, j
it is said ho sacratlced a hocutomb. His !
tctracties were a point, a line, a surface .
and a solid. He lived, as one author
says, at Humos, iu tho reign of Tarqnin
I (the last King of the Romans,) iu the
! year of Rome 220, but Livy says he lived
;iu the reign of Servius Tullius, in the
year of too world 3472. Due author says ,
I he borrowed his notious of metaphysics,
from the Egyptians, another from tho
auciont Brschmaus. Bo this as it may,
he was certainly u very extraordinary
1 person. He showed mankind the way
to Socrates. Due of tho chief uiuis of j
his Philosophy was to purge the mind
from the impurities of the body, nud j
from the clouds of the imagiuatioo.
Hocratos improved the lessons of his
master, and reduced the maxims to fixed
and solid principles. Pinto refined the
doctrines of both, and carried each vir
tue to its utmost a ccomplishmeut. And
we may go farther, aud show that Go
ornetry was understood by the Hebrews,
Egyptians, Persians, Chaldeans. Greeks,
Romans, Bramins, Druids and Bards.
These and many others, were acquainted
with some of the rules of proportion,
magnitude, augmentation aud diminu
tion.
There is no donbt but the overflowing
of the Nile, gave rise to a number of
rnles. as by such every vestige of the
landmarks were sunnily swept away and
had to be rein wed < ach yea;. for to this
day all landmarks are destroyed, by the 1
floods.
Astronomers turn their discoveries to
. account by means of this science. By
s it they regulate times, seasons, years, cy- j
| cles and epeebaa.
Respectfully,
Resendie.
From Mcßride.
Mi;. Editor:—Ham Jones snys “it is,
the hit dog that hollers.” Now if that '
| be the case, Rongh-.t-Ready must have
bit Mr. W. n. Mcßride, and hart him
pretty had, for ho hollered so load that i
we all heard him, through the newspu- :
j per. And I feel like his remarks were j
; only thrown over R.-&.-R's shoulders at;
all who did not endorse his dancing plat
form. For there were a goodly number
of us who did not attend, and were not |
kept away by anyone’s special influence ;
either. It has been said that the oppo
-1 nenents of the picnic broke the barmo-
Dy of the community. Well, the com-:
munity was harmonized until that plat- !
form was built, and now I wish to'
know who broke the harmony, the
ones who hn<l it built, or those who
j could not go thoro and dance on it or
• endorse it by their presence, contrary
to their religions principles. I hiy'e
J boen waiting for Itongh-Jc-Keady tooome
i out and show how lie felt, for some were j
consoling themselves by saying that :he ]
picnic boys were going to insult him.
Now, if Mr. Mcß’s letter was an at
tempt at the insult, in my judgmontthey
will have to try again, for he seems to
take it, like any Christian should, in a
meek and bumble spirit. lam very glad
that he advanced the idea that Mr. Moll,
was not the sole composer of his article,
for I am a warm friend to the young
gentleman, and have defended him sev
eral times when I bavo heard him as
sailed on deferent subjects, aud felt
shocked to think ho would do snch a
thing as to throw at a mao his past life,
just to mortify him, when he knew that
lie had long since reformed, and was do
ing all he could for tho good of Pie
country, for that is not the sign of a
“Christian-like young man.”
Mr. Melt, advises him to stay at home
and experiment with his washer e.d
bleacher, and that is very wholesome ad
vice imlced, for I um personally ac
quainted with a number of gentlemen
who would do tbeir families, and the
country in general, much more service
) if they would got tliern a labor suviug
1 1 implement of some kind uud stay at
home to work with it, than tlu-y do lying
around stores playing checkers telling
yarns and annoying the merchants, who
| would many times prefer their "ootn *»
] their company, *, l <3
’) Mr. Moll, need not boast of bis oi» 1
| for a picnic, for while croquet sev**'*
1 I to he pleasant enouali to all, many pu„_
I pie are uot more atLcted by a dancing
platform, check-bc-'C. nud nibbles, than
some are to u store to trade ttuore they
are compelled to listen to “Run Nig
j ger,” or such like tunes, played on alid
: die, while they live trading.
1 noi already fearing that Long Tond
j will yet suffer the fate of one of her sis
| tot towns, wlierejdriukiug uud carousing
S wore carried on to such uu extout that
j for a time some of the ladies refused to
' trade tliure. Now, the uieichauts of
' Long Fond are very attentive and le
pectful themsolves, aud I know they do
; not intend such to be the case, but it is
j well to be on the watch, for they vory
well know that fiddliDg and drinking
uro closely connected, so the demon may
creep in almost before they are aware of'
j it. This is only a bit of warning, young
men, for your own iuterest.
Now, a word of cheer to R.-&-R. aud
bis friends. Remember that God aud
eveu ouo man are always a majority.
Stand firm, aud never flinch, to say that
you are murchiug under the flag of King (
Iminuuual, for ho has promised to be
with yon always, even auto the end of
; the world. A Feienb to Long I’ond.
The safe is uot found, and the bn glare
are still at large; everybody stare* to
have given up iu despair, but uow ia the 1
time, iu my judgement, to be on the!
alert. It is astonishing to see and to know
I that so many are friendly to the perpetra
tors of such uu outrageous crime. It is
marvellous indeed that so many are neu
tral ou the subject, to all outward ap- j
pearaures. lam constrained to believe !
! that more are concerend in this great'
I outrage tbau wo were wont to believe at i
first. What would men think of me if I
were to befrieud the parties who com
mitted this act? What would they think
of me if I should speak up for them? I i
ask these questions for us to consider, j
What do we expect of tbo youths of the !
country —our oum dear sons —unless we
show forth a righteous indignation, bot h
iu word aud deed, agaiust so villainous
a crime. I tell you, sou is looking at
father to see where he stands in this ex
citement. Be it known nuto you that!
the seed sown now will be toe fruits you ;
will reap hereafter. Whataoeverye sow, '
that shall ye also reap. May old Mont- j
gomery never forget the young pbysi-1
cion who has thrown so much light on
this heinous offense, if he did obtain the 1
| information accidentally He was not
, like a llerod. who for his pledge's sake
would behead truth and send ;t to them
t
iu a charger. Eat like that nameless |
messenger who disclosed Absolem s con
spiracy to King David. lie did not
look at it as a personal matter, as some
do, but was persuaded to believe it was
a stepping stoue to overthrow old Mont
gomery’s safety, and perhaps others else
where. To say the least of it, he cer
tainly will find a lodgment in the hearts
of the good and the true, to be remem
bered as a hero. Every true citizen
feels like embracing him. My fellow
citizens, don't say we haven’t any law,
and proceed rashly, for two wrongs
never make a right. I know it is a
stigma, and no one, perhaps, feels it
more keenly than I do. But I never
could give my consent until law is aver
ted by villanous lies, and the best citi
zens of tbe county became clamorous for
life, and through this medium to sup
press like offenses for tbe country’s
safety. Work while it is day, for in the
night we stumble. I believe that there
is an Esther, who is ready, if brought
before the tribunal, to say “it is this
wicked Hnanuan,’’ or a Nathan to say
“thou art the man.” “Never givo ap
the ship,” until onr wrongs are re
dressed. Rough-&-Ready.
