People and Productions, (C mtinued from last week.) THE PEOPLE. However fertile the soil of the county may be, ami however rich in : mineral and other resources, before removing to such country, a prudent emigrant will regard, as of no se<H ondary consideration, the of the people among whom he is in vited to dwell. He will inquire con , cerning their character, customs, institutions and industries. The large majority of the citizens of Chattooga county are whites, born and reared in the Southern states, principally from Georgia, Tennessee, North and South Coro lina, originally descended from the , English and Scotch-Irish. They have all the sturdy independence peculiar to the Scotch and the love of order so characteristic of the English. There are no people more . independent in their ways and man : ners. They have their own convic- ■ tions and the courage to maintain ! them. A steady, undeviating devo- ■ tion to principle is a part of the -history of this people. The county 1 is devoid of leaders in Church and State, and the influence of any t would-be leader depends, not on • any factitious circumstance, but on merit. There are no sweeping resolutions in political or religious opinion. Endowed with good sense, prudent in judgment, hospitable tostrangers, social among themselves, kind to ' the poor, tolerant of the opinions of others, obedient to law, S’ith pro found reverence for holy things, they present a fair type of their ’ honored ancestry. Industrious, frugal, looking well to the ways of their own households, ‘ they are not indifferent to the pleasures of life, nor deaf to' the , calls of charity. No people anywhere are more de voted to the reign of law, or more patient under troubles, and they to- ■ day present a spectacle of submis sion to legal authority rare in these modern days of lawlessness. The stranger, who settles here and con ducts himself orderly, will find kind and sympathizing neighbors. These statements are evidenced by the fact that saving one excep tional crime, committed by a stran , ger, the first of the kind in forty years, the criminal docket is almo-t Mank, while the cases returned civil docket, diminish in num ber. c The people are a moral, church c going, religious people. The Bap tists have 15 churches with average ' congregations of over 3,000. The t Methodists have 13 churches with average congregations of 2,700. The Presbyterians have 7 churches ( . with congregations of about 1,500. Tiie Christians have 3. churches, congregations near 600, so that a large number are connected with 1 some church and a very large per ! cent, of the people are regular at tendants on church. The majority 1 of these churches have Ladies’ , Missionary Societies and Sabbath schools connected with them, the aggregate attendance on these I schools being over T.200 pupils, who 1 are furnished w'ith suitable Sabbath ~ school literature. Some of these schools are denoi w ' inational in name, while others nr .. Union schools. A few of them st s-1 pend a short while in winter,. while ' I others continue during the entiln j t The colored people are as thrifty s here ns any where, and are gradual ly rising in morals and intalligenee, and are acquiring homes for thenji , selves. They own about 2,500 aergs of land and estimate their property ; j at $20,000, They have 9 churches, idividid between Baptist and Meth odist, with a membership of 1,000 1 and large congregations, orderly and respectful. : Various charitable institutions, as Masonic Lodges, Knights of Hon- ' or, and others, are established in ‘ 1 the county. The learned professions 1 ar< f well represented, the lawyers \ being confined to the county site, 1 while the doctors are very equally I distributed over the county. The interest of the people in ed- j 1 J ucation is shown by the fact thatjj j there are 53 public schools foH | whites, with an enrolment of 2, 12(Bp I pupils, and 8 schools for the with an enrolment of 410 pupils, j 1 making a total enrolment of 2,560 , i i The majority of these, schools it 1 i is true, are taught only 3 month- in . j the year, generally after farm work < , : has ceased. There are 4 schools; ( comfortable build- ’ | terms from 8 to !<> ! in which higher cducat: ' tST'iirnished, with curriculum as < complete as any High schools in < the state. All the principal n gh- I borhoi ds have schools with terms of I 6 months. No person need send bis ' ; son or daughter out of the county j '■ to educate them, unless in those i 1 sciences which are illustrated by 1 experiments with apparatus. The 1 great embarrassment under which ' education labors is the present I’ub-1 lie School system, which multiplies] | the number of free schools beyond): , the necessities of the people and li- \ i . cences many persons to teach total- ■ .] ly unqualified for such vocation. . ) But tiiis is an evil not peculiar to .; this county alone. , | The people support two newspa . I pers, The Chattooga News and the J Summerville Gazette,: whose com-1 ! bined circulation amounts to over 1,500 copies and reaches 7,000 read- i ers, while there are ewer 1,000 copies i of other papers, magazines and re-) ! views circulated over the county. | To accomodate the people there are . 19 ppstoffices, with two daily mail lines, 3 tri-weekly and 4 bi-weekly lines. , The government of the county is 1 similai to other counties of the f State, >eing diverse in only two res- - pects. There is a County Court , with quarterly and monthly terms, r Its civil jurisdiction extends to causes involving amounts not less 1 than fifty, nor more than three hun , dred dollars. Its criminal jurisdic ■ | tion er tends to all crimes less than ;. felony. The county has a local road law. - The roads are under the direction 5 of a Supervisor, who has the roads - worked by contract. Road hands arc required to work ? 4 days during the year on the pub \ lie roads, or pay in lieu therof, a ’ comiui lation tax of fifty cents per ( day. They are also required to as sist in cutting new roads, or in 1 changing old ones, or pay a like) - commutation. Hands may elect to ! - work or pay. In addition, an ad- • | valorum tax not exceeding 25 per | t cent, on the State tax, is levied for I ■ road purposes. The road sv>tem i is good and when fully understood aid properly enforced will secure first class roads throughout the county. The tax for county purposes va ries from year to year. This is ac counted for by the fact that the county owns four river bridges across Chattooga river, and three over large creeks, as well as the fact that the expense of holding court varies. Ordinarily the county tax would not exceed the state tax. Paupers are maintained directly from the county treasury and not by means of a Poor House, though the latter plan would probable prove more economical and better accomplish the purpose designed. There is one distillery in the county deriving its patronage main ly from abroad, having a capacity lof 20 gallons per day. For years the sale of spirits has been under the direct control of the legal voters ;of the county. It has been voted lon by general election throughout ] the county, and by special election in several of the districts, public | opinion being divided as to the most prudent disposition tobemade of this question. At present the sale of spirits, | with the exception above noted, is | entirely under municipal supervi- i sion, though this may be changed i at the next election. ( The amusements of the people | are chiefly hunting, fishing,modern t social games and entertainments, t though the old fashined Logrollings, , Quiltings all day singings still lin- • ger, and keep in remembrance the i happier day of long ago. < li is not to be presumed that s there are no drawbacks to the pros- i perity of this people. Mention has ' been made of the want of commer- > cial facilities and educational difli- J culties. Poverty followed tiie var. i .W.’i'es for diverted at- < Bention trim grain growing to mak- < ing that the principal crop. The r result has been the same here as s elscwheie. Too much money has [ been spent on commercial fertilizers, i s Too little time for keeping fences in proper repair and improvement < of land. Too little attention given c to raising bread and stock. Too f much money spent abroad for flour and meat. Too much home in debtedness. But a halt is being called all along the line. There has been a very general effort made this year to remedy the evil, and a few crop years such as this, with like effort, will crown with success this laudable endeavor to owe no man anything, and to provide com fortable homes with all the conven iences of life. It must be true that a people possessing all the advantages of soil, climate and institutions that this people do, will fulfill the high destiny which beckons them onward from afar; and to share in the frjii ition of these hopes, a cordial tationis extended to those whom nature, more wayward, has less kindly smiled.

Among the remarks addressed by the fam us Justice Duffy, of New York, recently to i risoners before him and to persons asking the release of prisoners, The Sun recall# ! these: To a boy—You are an incorrigible boy, you villain, you swashbuckler, you bandit, you bravo.

CHRISTI AN UNITY. •‘Oh, that the day would come when, in a larger communion than any sect can offer, all those who are one in Christ may be able to blend in manifest unity ! This can only come by the way of growing spiritual life, clearer light upon the one eternal truth, and a closer cleav ing in all things to Him who is the Head, even Christ Jesus.” Charles IL Spurgeon spoke these words. Mr. S. is the world- renown ed Baptist minister of the nine teenth, as John Bunyan was of the seventeenth century. Like Bunyan Spurgeon’s piety, his loyalty to God and his faithfulness to men, admits of no doubt. His sincerity is as unquestionable as his ability. A good and true man, as well as an “able minister of the new testament” his uttcrence deserves attention, consideration, and reconsideration. His language quoted above is worthy of every one’s careful study, not only because Spurgeon uttered it, but because of the circumstances under which it was uttered. It was when using such language as fol lows: During the past month many have put to us the anxious ques tion “What shall we do?” To these we have had no answer to give ex cept that each one must act for himself after seeking direction of the Lord. In our own case we in timated our course of action in last month’s paper. We retire at once and distinctly from the Baptist Un ion. The Baptist churches are each one of them self-contained and independent. Baptist i"ii is '■ ;. ? / M' -i/ ' 4 ‘ • to withdraw Un ion as at present constity'til, has no disciplinary power, for it has no doctrinal basis whatever, and we see no reason why every form of belief and misbelief should not be com prehended in it so long as immer sion is acknowledged as baptism. Again Spurgeon’s, “Oh that the day would come when in a larger communion than any sect can offer, all those who are one with Christ may be able to blend in manifest unity!” is worthy of serious and universal consideration, not because he said it, nor because he said it when withdrawing from The Bap tist Union ; but because the senti ment therein expressed is, or ought to be, the sentiment of every Chris tian in the world. But again, the importance of this remarkable utterance of the greatest living Baptist deserves careful consideration from the fact, that he implicitly, but truthfully, asserts that no sect in. existence “can offer” a basis of union that would be universally acceptable to the people of Clod. k Finally, Mr. Spurgeon's words Fdemand and deserve the serious, thoughtful, carful, honest and prayerful* consideration of Baptists not only; but of Methodists, Epis copalians, Congregationalist, Presbyterians, Lutherns and all others, because he lays down the only true, and therefore, the only safe and rational basis of unity, and intimates the manner in whim: sinful human ity are to be brought to accept that basis. “Tlris” that is to say, this “larger communion than any sect can offer;” this “manifest unity,” of “all those who are one in Christ” this, says Mr. Spurgeon, “can' only come by the way of growing spiritual life, clearer light upon the one eternal truth and a closer cleaving in all things to Him who is the Head even Christ Jesus.” Thank God, that this Baptist brother, who will not unite with all who believe m, and practice immer sion, extends the right hand of fel lowship to “all those who are one ia Christ.” Thousands,, on this side of the Atlantic, yea, millions it may be, will take the proffered hand ; and our dear brother Spur geon may yet rejoice in being a member of “a larger communion than any sect can offer.” God speed the day 1 Reader is that your pray er? See to it then, that' yours is a “growing spiritual life pray God continually for “clearer light upon the one eternal truthand seek henceforth, “in all things, to cleave closer to Him wi\o is the Head, even Christ Jesus.” NO. 49. wi xt /‘•OO 3NIHOVW DNIM3S PUB NOIHSVJ IS3HOW3Q 1 -a ’0 '3 » aa S winjwjn -trom otp jo JMirp Xnq jnq ‘XSIIHOJS®] nnx by aooo os J.OK onrqotiui B uo jgord o OO'OVfc , ► •nopa'Bjsiius nqjjod aafxjS puu pjos OOO'OC Apna.q T -- bW ■'lll- jsy* —• re, 7- y ' pi:' ' XTNO H'IXXS SIIIX -1 • T aupJ|| SuimsJ issjowQ SHX - ’ •einas c* joj *pM-isod ’ •PWf) 000*1 inoqv tjjim ‘saj.Cig paw wo;uuoiqsuj* ju soStsd pg jo aSitq v s] HV3AI OX ITEM CSV SNOIHSVH HO OnOHJ-HOd S<£S3&OPJ3a ’BIAHAI JC |apow ao ‘piud ;sod ‘n«ax <£q 'oo’Bs ‘awisj ’.fipajjad uj pne wo ©1 oao daw Sunqwae ’Buopojaip ll n J jo paw V®nO ssojq jo luejsXg 11S3MW3Q IWW inouwrz? 9amg pojidd « oa;3 n|M jwq; soao A{uo aqr ojy 6NU3XXVd 31SVIT3H SJS3HOW3O ’am W WEBSTER’S UNABRIDGED tVith of without I’atcnt Index. 11 is invited t< th**’ Awfifnining ri-n 1 « r-inntil G. /: other A Gazetteer of th?

Hood’s Sarsaparilla is a peculiar medicine, possessing, by virtue of its peculiar combination, proportion, and preparation, curative power superior to any other article. A Boston lady who knew what she wanted, and whose example is worthy imitation, tells her experience below: To Get ° In one store where I went to buy Hood’s I Sarsaparilla the clerk tried to induce me buy their own instead of Hood’s; he told me their’s would last longer; that I might take it on ten days’ trial; that if I did not like it I need not pay anything, etc. But he could not prevail on me to change. I told him I knew what • Hood’s Sarsaparilla was. I had taken it. was . satisfied with it, and did not want any other. 1 Hood’s i When I began taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla I was feeling real miserable, suffering 1 a great deal with dyspepsia, and so weak I that at times I could hardly stand. I looked, and had for some time, like a person in con sumption. Hood’s Sarsaparilla did me so • much good that I wonder at myself sometimes , and my friends frequently speak of it.” 1 Ella A.
