The Angnata Chronicle han been
waving some very complimentary
thing* recently about our sister city,
Grovetown, which we stand ready to
endorse

An intimate friend informs us that
a widow lady living in the neighbor- '
hood of Grovetown has the cleanest
crop in the county. All honor to our
noble women.
We are not disposed to look on the
dark aide, but from information gath
ered from farmers in the Republic of
Columbia the cotton crop will bo very
short this year.

Me would just like to say to young
people who live in large cities and
oome to the country for the summer
if in attending the service of country
churches they think, because it is a
country church, they can behave just
M they please, take care I The mistake
may be realued when it is too late.—
An example before the Su|H>rior
Court against such conduct would be
quite convincing upon the point A
word to the wise is sufficient
It is the dying struggle that causes
the anti prohibiUunist to exclaim that
to enforce the taw will so reduce the
revenue of the country iv- to cause an
increase in taxation The fact is, wo
«re dow to believe that it will neoeq-
sitate an increase in taxation, for
wherever the law has been enforced
crime has decreased, the dockets of
the courts have been lighter and cost
of the same much less. But even ad
mitting that it does increase taxation,
if it dccn aaea drunkeness and conse
quently Ichhcuh crime, let the increase
of taxation come, it is an easier bur
den to bear than the widow's groans
and the orphan's cry for bread.
A Few Kind Won Im.
There is no digitising the fact that
we have just passed through one of
the most exciting contests, so far as
county jsilitics are concerned, since
the dark days of Radical usurpation.
Every inch of ground has been con
tented and the field thoroughly can
vassed by aspirants for office in our
county. About this we have but little
to say; still holding, however, to an
opinion contrary to such a course,
piefering to hold to the “old fogy
idea of having the office seek the man.
Along with the contest overzeal
ncss has been brought to the front 1 y
the friends of one aspirant against
another which has, as it will invari
ably .do, engendered ill feeling between
our citizens. To-day, as each one
quietly sits down to meditate upon
the result, whether of success or de
feat, it should lie remembered that
we will all have to live in the future
as in the past, with and among each
other, whatever our differences may
have been, and in the light of reason,
we should resolve to bury the issues
of the past, and as far as possible
cultivate a spirit of friendship ami
brotherly love. Our interests go farther
and sink deeper than the electing of 11
neighbor to an office of trust ami
profit. There are questions to be
decided and interests to bo guarded
outside of the pales of the political
arena. Fidelity to ourselves, to our
families, to our neighbors, to society,
and to the country at large demand
that our differences in an issue like
the one just closed, should have ceased
on yesterday at the ballot box. Every
man nominated yesterday to office of
trust, in this county or to represent us
in the General Assembly should re
ceive the good wishes and support of
every citizen of our grand old county.
We should lay down every feeling of
estrangement brought on by the con
test and now work after interests of
a more vital character. Give every
num intrusted with office your sym
pathy and (moourageiuont until he
proves recreant to the trust.

Erit'inl.
Editors Evening News: It is very
gratifying to us nt Grovetow:, to see
through the papers how greatly
Colonel H.iyno was valued, and to
know how generally and sincerely he
is mourned, but us much ns he is
esteemed ami valued by those who
knew him only through his vvtilings,
or were tint slightly acquainted, they
cannot value and love him us we, his
neighbors, did, among whom he lived,
who saw him every day. knew his
kind, true heart, mid how good and
sympathetic he was. So many, from
all over the country, are paying their
respects, 1 feel that Grovetown should
lay an humble wreath of pine upon
Ins grave in token of the great love
and esteem we, his neighbors, had for
him. I have waited for a more
practiced pen to do this, as there are
some among us well able to do so; but
as it has not been done, 1 though
unused to writing, cannot let the time
pass, and Grovetown be silent. 1 have
known Colonel Hayne for five years,
seen him nearly every day; when he
was well ami the weather permitted
lie never failed to come to the village
for his mail. We used to look for old
"Dick," Ins horac, with interest, and
felt pleased when we saw the buggy
coming down the hill. The Colonel
would always stay a while, and was
always pleasant and sociable, and not
a bit stuck up, though his fame as a
poet and a great mail was all over the
land. Distinguished people were
constantly coming to see him, and it
pleased us to know he was valued bv
others, but they did not value him
:vs we did localise they did not know
him as we did. He was interested in
all that interested us and always glad
to help in everything that would im
prove his neighborhood. No one
ever applied to him in vain for help,
l ittle children loved him, for he
always noticed them and ha.l such
pleasant ways with them. Some one
who did not know him, saw him
once at Grovetown aud asked what
office he was running for. 1 told him
he was not running for any office.
He said, "\\ hy. he is o pleasant and
polite. 1 thought he was a candidate.’.
Bishop Beckwith, in his beautifu.
address, ganged] the Colonel about
right; he combined gentleness and
, manliness in a wonderful way. Col.
Hay ne was a great poet, and we are
glad for his sake and his family and
the fvnith that this is so; but we don't
value him for that. I don't care if
he had never written a line of poetry —
we value and love him for himself.
We shall always feel kindly to Au
gusta for the great and loving respect
she showed him. He has many
namesakes around here. I hope they
may be like him in character as well
as name. W. J, Heooie.
