Miss E.vilyx Rosborougii, of \Voodwards,
as County Secretary of the
Uhautauqua Literary and Scientific
Circle, requests us to use our iuilucnce
to interest the literary people of the
county in the work. She says in her
note to us chat she ha* iece;?tlv re-1
turned from a visit to Chautauqua
"greatly enthused" and she can recomra3nu
the course to any one desiring a
systematic and interest ng course of
reading We gladly onsent to do all
.in our power to stimulate the literary
taste and interest of our people, and
have more than once called attention
to the lack of some such org-tniz.tion
as "a circle'' in Wiimsboro. We have
several timjs examined the courses,
and they are, as Miss Rosborough says,
interesting. They are calculated to do
any amount of good by pursuing them
because they are arranged with some
system, and subjects are taken up by
the reader in some logical order. It
is a very inexpensive system; it gives
nn nnnorhnnifcv of readiUfiT the
best thought of the best thinkers selected
for you by some of the best,
scholars. Such a course of reading
can be done at home, surrounding the
home with an atmosphere of culture
and refinement. We hope that some
one interested will communicate with
. Miss Eosborough, and a circle can be
/ organized in Winnsboro and in every
part of the county. In a few years,
it would hare a very perceptible eflect
on the whole county. <
THE MOTHER'S DUTY
* ? wirrro
1>I A-LiU-fc. -U. ?>
To keep one's mind on tbe weary
round of household tasks all day long
is ruinous to the temper, and more
wearing to the health than any amount
of bodily labor. The. Chautaqua course
of reading comes to your very door
^SiosHnyltirig paths they are in which
to tread, bringing a boundless store of
information aud leading you to look
up into the blue heavens and down
into the depths of the sea and out into
God's world about von. When once
1 n ? IV!.
one becomes lmerusieu m ujis ui any
similar coarse of reading, the question,
"Is life worth living?" answers itself.
To those who object that all this
tak^s time I wouid reply, so does
everything that is worth doing at all.
Yet when wc really desire to accomplish
anything, can we not always
make or take the time to do it? A
housewife and mother can, if she will,
do all her pwu work, be dressmaker
and seamstress, and send the boys to
school, and sew on the father's" buttons,
and yet not suffer her mind to
rust; can keep up her music, attend
lectures, belong to a magazine club,
and feel herself up with the times and
as useful as anybody; maybe she can
even join a grange and be a valuable
working member. Of course do all
this some things must be given up;
but to gain such a reward is worth the
sacrafice of even several pies a week,
or some other as great deprivation;
nor will the farmer's family be the
worse for it. Is it not impossible to
write or read while dinner is cooking,
and niavbe the essay will gain spice
from the very surroundings. Singing
and cashing of dishes go well togeiner,
and the former will neutralize the discouragement
produced by the sight of
a large number of the latter wailing to
be attended to. A woman's ingenuity
will compass almost anything she may
xir.dertake. I have in mind a sittingroom
in one corner of which stands
the sewing-machine, in another the
organ, and in a third an old secretary,
"T at which the mistress of the house has
passed many happy momeuts when
not making music on either of the
other two instruments, both of which
show signs of daily use. To combine

take much time, nor much money, nor
a teacher. It only requires love of
/ knowledge and a determination to acquire
it. All the i-cst will come of it
self.
And now, if the question arises,
whit effect will all this have upon the
boys? hear the answer, tried and tested
by actual experience. The home is
the child's first school, and upon the
atmosphere which surrounds him from
infancy depends his future usefulness.
This is true no less of his mental than
of his moral character. In the homes
of many fanners there is almos-t absolutely
no reading mat'er, unless the
local paper may be termed such, and
during the few hours spent in the
school-room it is impossible for the
teacher to counteract that dampening,
depressing, narrowing influence which
throws a wet blauket on the mind and
keeps the boy stupid in spite of him~
self. But let him feel that all at home
are interested in his progress, that
father Knows wuere nu is m uruuumuu
and is ready to help him with a hard
example, and mother is just ahead of
him in history and can tell him the
date which he has forgetten, and ten
times out of a dozen he will take to
his books without urging, and absorb
knowledge without knowing it.. If
mamma writes at a desk in one corner,
little Johnny will tease for a desk in
the other, and wi 1 want pencils and
paper and all complete, and, almost
before going to any school at all, will
have acquired the rudiments of a good
education, and also a taste for hooks
which will go with him through life,
will keep him out of bad company,
will show him a profitable manner in
which to spend his evenings, and help
him in a thousand ways.
So mothers, if you wish to throw
arouud your children a safeguard
which shall introduce them into cultured
society, and protect them from
evil, do your best to make the home
&5?
pb*
atmo?pbcre favorable to ih?ir mental
develonment. and such as shall en
- -A - ? - ,
coarage habits of reading and study.
And to this end, make the most of
yourselves. Head, read, read anything
rather than nothing; but, best of
all, "adopt some systematic course,
what ever commends itself to \onr
judgment, and, depend up ?n it, not
only the boys and girls, but father
h'mself, will fall into line and verily
you shall reap your own reward.?

Dear EdUor: Cuxhaven was the port
at which the Steamer Augusta Victoria
lay over 011 31st of August previous to
the transfer, 011 the next morning to a
smaller steamer, which in a few minutes
brought Ik- to the wharf. The
dreaded examination of passports and
inspection of trunks amid a foreign
jargou was bewildering. In the beginning
there was pretty rough handling
of the contents. But our trunks
were about the last iuspected and the
officers were evidentlv fatigued with
o .
the thousand packages they had opened.
They looked in my tray and said
"Have you any new clothes?" I re*plied
"nothing but old", and he slammed
it down aud left me to buckle it
up. One of our satch els had a pair of
knit-room slippers in it?these were
suspiciously examined and the only
article disturbed?doubtless expecting
to find precious stones in the toes.
We spent 21 hours in Hamburg
very pleasantly with our steamer party
of six, at the Dclv.dere Hof?where
the universal foreign sys em of lodgings
ani restaurant prevails, paying
only for what you order. Eating intelligently
required iuterpretaion and
fortunately for us, some of the party
coaid talk German.
Thr> Fiof is bnantifuliy located in
view of the River Alster which winds
through the city, and one of its fea- .
tures are hundreds of swans floating
on i:s bosom. The streets were a
strange sight to us with its foreign
people and new. We were immediately
taken to a Ivafc to see the order,
cf coffee and beer drinking?frequent- f
ed by men and womeu. We had the;
good fortune to hear "Wagner's great i
opera of Tauuh&user performed the'
night of September 1st in one of the
largest and most beautiful opera houses
in Hamburg.
One of the stiange and attractive
bights in this quaint old city were the
Peasant women in costume, selling
fllowers. They are as characteristic in ;
build as in dress. They are human i
Pei cherons?their hips enormous and
corresponding proportions all over.
I am sure that it must require 12 widths 1
in their skirts to get the fulness neces- {

very short, displaying th ir stout limbs j
and big, broad feet in strong slippers.
A long full white white apron, a black '
boiice over a short sleeved full waist i
in fancy colors, makes a picturesque ,
costume. The white cap which U al- j
ways worn is like a three-cornered;
handkerchief b?und tight across the j
forehead and pinned behind the ears '
and with a huge paper bow wiih ends, i
completes this peculiar dressing. i
Dogs are one of the beasis of bur-1
then here. They are harneacoti u>
-my lAvgc tand=Cgrt5Tor"baggage and i
other commodities?a man with a strap j
over one shoulder helping the dog to j
pull. Women of the lower cla-s are
also beasts of burdlhen and the above j
mentioned Peasants have a yoke over i
their necks with projecting Tods on
which baskets or packages are hung.
The women also carry immense bags
on their backs filled with plunder of
various kinds.
We saw an i lectric can-i.-ige rolling !
down the street with paoeugers.
Wo nroro whisked orer tlie Berlin
bound cars in four hours?about 40
miles an hour. There are three classes
of passeuger cars?1st, 2nd, 3rd,?not
presuming to Royalty we took second
class and found it better than our or
dinary coaches. The cars here are
divided into compartments running
across the car and each hold six persons.
Some of our pussen^ers went
in the 3d class and found it equally
good, although there was a difference
in prices. We had an excellent dinner
served on these cars.
We were quar:ered in Berlin at the
handsome Central Hof, situated in the
central business part. It is on^ of the
few hotels where English is spoken.
The surroundings, service and entertainment
at this hof was all first class
and cost about half what we pay in
New York Lodgings & Restaurant
system. There are only four elevators
in Berlin and the one at this hotel,
called a lift, carried us up three flights,
but so slowly that one could have
written a book while going up. The
Germans are afraid of these lifts and
do not patronize them much.
Mr. Abell spent ten days house hunting.

in the numbers of flats and pensions
he visited in this time. Fortunately
we are located now in the second story
on a beautiful and quiet street only
o.ie square and a half from Bartk's
music rr-oms.
The beds here have afforded us much
amusement. The bedsteads are single.

One large square pillow with a few j
feathers is allowed. After one week'.experience
with this feather bed on
top, we find it vury essential. At first
the feathers acci iriulatc in chunk* and
one is kept on the alert to manage it.
The proper management is to pat it
frequently during the n:ght and d spo?e

The white pcrcelain stoves which
decorates each room, look like tombstones.

The hard wood floors are in beautiful

We were forewarned in regard to a
visit from the police. After we got
finally settled, we were honored with
three visits. Our passports were demanded?I
had none, and I mention it
as information, that I have to bny one
forthwith. I wr.s told in New "York
that as I was a w idow it wasnot necessary
to get one. The papers served
had the following: items to be answered:

Barth (pron Bart) our music professor,
is tbc greatest instructor in
Germany and he is considered by
many the finest teacher in Europe.
He is the only pianist whose technique
has equalled that of the late distinguished
Kullak Barth, has given two
private recitals to his pupils since we
came, p aying some twenty pieces at
each one?showing his extraordinary
memory and extraordinary command
of the instrument. In appearance he
is an athlete, with a gentle, polished
mannse, which did not however conduce
to the equanimity of the young
Article who had to play to him! She
was very naturally frightened, in such
august presence, and tried to excuse
herself, by attributing any faults in
the execution to the peculiarly hard
action of his instrument. Barth quietly
remarked, "When a man says he
can ride horseback, he ought to be
able to ride any horse." Nevertheless

The regular opera season does not
open uutil October 15th. We attended
and heard at the King's Opera House
last week Verde's latest opera Falstaff.
It was Shakespeares Merry Wives of
Windsor and the music very Wagnerian.
A lovely representation in
Pantomine?our language of the carnival
wound up the evening with
pleasure and gaity. Ilere the curtain
rises promptly at 7 o'clock. No
bonnets or cloaks are worn in the
auditorium, there being a cloak room
where everything of this kind is de
posite l and checked for. The dressing
of the audience was very simple
and no attempt at display of auy sort.
Everybody preserved perfect quiet aud
no applause was given until the act <

NEGRO VOTER'S CALL.
Views the Si uation and Advises.
To the Negro Voters of Fairjisld County: ;
Fellow Voters-1 have no other excuse
to offer for writing ;his appeal
thai: the apprehension I now justly entertain
that the mass ?>t \?u are really
ignorout jis to the approaching crisis I
now hoveling over the political arena
of South Carolina, which not only
threatens but really .means t ? deprive i
yon of \onr light to cast \our uauois
for the men who shall irovern you and 1
thi> State for more than an hundred !
years to come. Far be it from me to
rai<eanv exe'tement among von in^o^:"gfards
;he~ 'coinThg election, or to
cause \onr minds :o revert to that '
shameful and to-be-regretted, policy of ;
"radical rnle" and "carpet bag" regime
which, posing as a republican
party, governed this State prior to '71,
with which many ot yon allied your- (
selves, but as a taxpayer and citizen of i
South Carolina, I have the right to
peaceably communicate the ritual ion 1
to you when 1 see that \oa are about i
i>n < !jnric(>d of tour franchise un
knowingly.
Yoq :nay say that I am not a leader>
which is true, mh<I the ?1 inn, if any, |
should have been -t?iiiuix:. 1 by the State '
or Comity Chair ma <. I charge that our
leaders are either ig.:orant% s'othful,
unaware of the gravity of the situa- J
ti >n, or, I was about to say, in a colln- i
sion, or you would have bceu called to 1
at: i ?n weeks ago to consider which 1
i
way you shoul i v?!e o.i this all-ab- ,
pot bing qnes'i ? -a eon-titntional con- i
vcii!ion. Do jou know that Governor 1
Tillman an l Governor-elect Evans j
i.fhrt i.ii'tpp nnmi thp
1I*VC ogMuiv.. ...v, I ,
slump through ut He Mile, that there j
miut be r? coiiautuu .mil convention in
this State before the n*>xt two years?
I heard Governor Tillman say at a 1
campaign meeting two years ago that !
lie wanted a constitntional convention,
aud one of the principal purposes was J
to make a property*anJ educational 1
qualification lor voters, which would '
no doubt disfranchise one hundred *
thousand negroes, as was done in Mis- !
sissippi a lew years ago, where more '
than the above number of negroes are '
now disfranchised. Governor-elect !
Evans has openly declared against the j
two mills school tax, so far as the !
negro tchool is concerned, which will j
strike a fearfnl b ow at our free school '
system, which now seems to be the ]
only source to make the negro an hon- J
est, intelligent and industrious Ameri- 1
citizen that he ousrhttobe. Yet
if he trebles the poll faxG9 and gives I
the benefit of what we pay, we con
easilv submit.
But to the point: The constitution '
of this State "says, every male citizen
twenty-one years of age and upward
not being: under certain disabilities? 1
having been convicted of felonious *
crimes, arson, murder, rape, etc.?and
being duly registered shall vote in any 1
general election. '
But my impression is that the consti- '
tuiional convention will make this section
read thus: Any male citizen twenty-one
years of a?e, etc., that can read '
and write a legible hand, and owns 5
one thousand dollars injhis own right
aud title can vote, etc. With such
qualifications upon the voters of this
State, how many negroes would be for- j
ever debarred from voting? Think of
it. Out of one hundred and thirty
thousand i egro vote? in the State one
hundred ihousftud w<>nld be cut off
entirely?not tr./iii paving taxes, but
from eavirff who s-hou-d oe supported
by your taxes to nilj over you. If
vim have et'O'ijdh property, but unable j
irom no fault of \our own to read a<id '
write, or where tuousands can do the j
latter, but are po-r, you are told to go }
and eurich yourself a thousand dollars (
before yoc can vote. Think of a gov- '
ernmeiit that will drive you from the
voting polls because you are a poor
man, and then arrest you and make
you pay taxus for its support because
vou are a citizen! The only consolation
a negro can find in this proposed
plan is the word "color' will be
left out; so any poor white man can
draw the inference. I tear my abhorrence
for the plan has run off "with my
reasons. Why does the negro want to
vote? Is not ibis a white man's country
and government? Has a negro
any rights, politically, that a white

' Last evening, just after tea, while Mr.
Thomas Hartman, a prominent and highly-espected
citizen, apparently on the best of

. aced one hand over his heart, gasped, and
ink back, in his chair, evidently-unconcerns.

fl-nsc against heart disease, and the awful
rapidity with which it is claiming victims
forces upon all a conviction of its prevalence.
Reader, if you have a symptom of this
dread disease do not hesitate a moment in
.-.{tending to it." Delay is always dangerous,
and in heart disease too often fatal. Some
symptoms of heart disease are shortness of
breath, fluttering, or palpitation, pain or
:enderness in left side> shoulder, or arm, ir?
regular pulse, smothering, weak or hungry
spalls, fainting spells, dropsy, etc.
Charles Raven, York, Pa., writes: "I suffered
Crom heart disease 22.yeare. Frequently my
he-irt would seem to jump into my mouth, and my
condition made me very melancholy. Physicians
stive me no relief. I became so much worse that
