The Baptist Parsonage being very se riously ont of repair, the ladies of that ?congregation have determined upon giv ing a Hot Supper, in the hope of raising a fund sufficient to have certain necessa ry work done upon the Mid building. And indeed it is so absolutely essential that the Parsonage should at once be put in order, lest the leaks and breaks and defects should require a much larger sum hereafter, that the ladies de set ve all praise and all encouragement for their promptitude in the matter. In deed if it were not for tho women of the laud-as we have often before remarked -there would now be few churches or parsonages standing in the South. And when weak women so bravely do what ought, by right, to be done by strong men, it behooves tho said strong men to at least stand by them-to the amount of their personal presence and a few paltry cents. This is the plain truth, and there is no getting round P, let men talk as egotistically ss they may-and as is their wont. The ladies will give their Supper on Tuesday night of next week, October 5th, in Masonic Hall. And there is to be nf? rattling nor lottery work. Beyond the cheap allurements of such little in stitutions as a Post Office, a Fish Pond, and a Fortune Teller, there will be no invitation to undue outlay. The ladies will charge 50 cents admission fee ; and for this, each one of their patrons will get a very handsome supper both of sub stantials ami daihUfls, in fact a supper of everything on the tables. Nothing but Ice Cream wiil be extra. And now the public know exactly what to expect And if they do not patronize these la dies very generously indeed, the more shame to then". And as regards the quality and quantify of ibo feast - il those requirement^ bo anything io peor pie-and we suppose they are to a great many-no one in Edgefield need be told that they will be far above am%beyond all cavil. Be present, therefore, on Tues day evening, and consider it a privilege to contribute your mite to st? gi cause. Robinson's Circus at John-ton. Persons from our town who happened at Johnston on Saturday last, thought that old John Robinson's Circus bail ar rived at that place; and they at once made a rush for what they took to be I he ticket wagons-the crowd around being so largo and so dense that their \ ?sion could not possibly pierce through But what was their surprise to find that in stead of old John Robinson's Circus, ? was simply young L. B. Whatley's Store j -where you can lind everything in the world-and everything at a bargain. Yes, Mr. Whalley is drawing a custom equal to Old John Robinson's. Ho lins Dry Coods, and Clothing, and Notions, ami Bo-ds, and Shoes, and Hats, and Grooei les, and (?eneral Plantation Sup plies. And he pays the highest market, pi iee for cotton. And ho is as handsome and generous a young fellow as- ever lived. And whoever does not attend tim Robinson- Whatley show at Johnston, stands in his own light. Read Mr. What ley's large card io another column. Keeping Up the Rush at Trenton. Mr. J. B. Norris, as may bo seen by bis announcement in another column, continues to rush the Dry Goods busi ness at Trenton. He is lately back from New York, and hi? prices are as lofflE they can possibly be, while his gootr^ffin of tiie first quality. His new stock for the fall and winter trade is endles-, and he solicits the patronage of the?oun!ry at large, a great share of which lie is I mund to secure if buyers will call?n him and note his prices before purchas ing elsewhere K.

We regret to hear of the death of Mr. Alexander Edmonds, jr., which occur red, on Thursday last, at his uncle's, Mr. T. L. Martin's. He was only 2."> years of age, and leaves a wife and one child. Railroad Statistics The railroad statistics sent ns from Troy, N. Y., by our young friend Toni Rainsford are wonderful and instructive. But why should Tom leave ont the Edge field, Aiken and Trenton Road ? Best on Record On Saturday 1.*str by three o'clock-, 1\ M., Mr. J. K. Devore, living near Kim wood, picked .'100 pounds nf cotton. Who can beat that for high ? Hon. Wm. G Whitely. The "Interview" with the Hon. Wm. G.

Honored Citizens The Messrs. Aull, father and son, of the Ninety-Six section, paid us a pleas ant little visit a few days back. Indeed Mr. El hort Anil, the s-#n, a prominent graduate of Newberry College, has lo cated in Ninety-Six, and there runs a large and valuable grist mill. .

Another New Fashion Veiy young ladies have adopted the fashion of wearing targe embroidered and lace trimmed collars, just like those worn by small children, .sixteeners and seventeeners can therefore now mount the pretty bibs heretofore worn only by little tiny girls. We have seen a box of beautiful ones lately from Khrich's in New York. The Injun ' As we predicted last week, Chief Hil ly Mays of the Coopersville tribe, was one of the sensations of Campaign day It was a pleasant change from the mo notony of the red shirts; for the red shirt isa mighty old thing now in Edge field. And especially was the efi'ect powerful upon the young. We have four little grandchildren, all of whom were present; and when we went to give them a glass of lemonade, we fon nd them transformed Into four stone statues with open months and glaring eyes, hopelessly and permanently petri li ed The oldest ono gasped out convulsively: '.The Injunl" And then relapsed into Minty stone. And they are still perfect ly rigid ! Gen Gary at Oakley Park Our distinguished townsman, Gen. M. W. Gary, after a two months sojourn in Virginia, is again at his beautiful home, Oakley Park ; and the hand-shakings and warm greetings that welcome him on all sides, prove how deeply he lives in the love of our community. And who knows but Hint thc grand outcome of this long larry at White Sulphur may be a lair mistress for Oakley Park? God grant it may be so. However, when George Elliot cuts the caper at sixty, and Lady Barde tte Coutts at sixty-five, our friend has many years yet in which towlisport himself idly.

For almost two months past, Mrs, Pierce B, Day, tho only child of our friend, Mr. D. It. Durisoe, and the bride Rf eight months back, has been lying low upon a hod of illness, with her young life, day by day, and night by night, h mging in the balance.

Amid the Old Scones We were delighted to meet on cam paign dav Mrs. Dr. Filch, of Charleston, one of the most intelligent and amiable ladies Edgefield has ever sent lo grace other circles. Mrs. Filch was Miss Vic toria Ward, the youngest daughter of the late fa pt. Ki ch ard Warri, ol the'Ridge, and was a prominent member of Edge field Mocioty in Ihn merry days of Col.

We Boon discovered that he was perfectly blind and in great pain, from the effects ol the sore eyes which arc so prevalent just now. We lcd him to a seal and said to liim: "Press, what in the name of God did you come out lo day in such a fix as this for ?*' And he said : "Well you see, fim, 1 thought il was my duly to come nf on such an occasion as this; so I got up und r'skeil it." This is certainly a line example of party faith. Novel and Noble Beneficence A young gentleman, a friend and pat ron of Mr .lames M. Cobb, has lodged with that popular merchants bale of cot LIII, willi thu request that ho sell it to the L>3st possible advantage, and distribute Hie proceeds among the three resident .lergymcn of our community And in . >nformby willi this request, Mr. Cobb b?ga us to announce that he will sell the ?said bale at public outcry, in front of his -?lore, on Sat ui day morning next, alli ?Ylocfc.

Do this that you may diare with tho donor of the bale in the ?tweet promise: "Inasmuch as yo have ?lone it unto one of Ihe least of these, ye liave doma it unto me " The Railroad ond the Adveitiser. The road bed ol' Ibo Edgefield, Tren Ion and Aiken Railroad has nearly reach ed BaiivUelt's Mill, on Shaw's Creek, ibout six miles from Aiken, and the ?dorkado will be moved lhere, perhaps, this week. Il is expected that the road will reach Aiken In a few months. This road will connect thc town of Edgefield with Ibo network of railroads in the State and contribute materially in the business advantages of H.at live place. With a railroad and a first-class newspa per like the Ailivrliiter any town should prosper. Itet/ixter. Sunday School Convention We learn that lhere will be a Sunday School Convention at Butler Church, Sat urday, Oct. 2nd. All Ihe Schools in Sa luda Chenil will be represented in the Convention Practical points in Sunday School work will bo discussed liy prac tical Sunday School workers.

Perhaps Mr. Tray V.lek himself might be kind enough lo do so. The Langtry-Jersey. And yon must pronounce it darsey! A young lady relative ol'ours who has just returned from Canada writes us that, being peculiarly English, they are all thc rage in Toronto, Montreal and Quebec, and will soon be all over the country. Kiie says they lit like a merino undcrvest that is much I io small. And we copy tho following from the Paris correspond cut of limper'* lin.ar: "Those garments, the Langtry Jersey l.oddices, are made by the manufacturers ol' tights designed for dancers. For the winier the mateihi will bo inado in all colors and will be richly embroidered willi bends nf iel or in colors, and tho embroidery will bo so disposed as to sim ulate either the .scales or the plate of the ou i Hisses formerly worn by armed twight*. Tl ie Jerseys are ma lc by spe cial measurement of the figure and can not Ive obtained everywhere. They de scend rather low and inclose the hips sightly. Their Innclioil is to display the figure ss fully as possible. This is the m< tat object ionnble feat n re of this lash ion, and 1 am afraid that il is just this feature which has charmed the Indies ol fashion. These Jerseys are worn with all kinds of skirts." Voting for His Fs?c tor The Trenton correspondent of tho Hey Mer, describing the jg^^^ni meeting ol' bist week, writes tu^HHn .' Alter the last named gentleman had concluded, thc air rang with 'Butler! Buller! lintier!' The lionera! tried to excuse himself, as he was at Infrie, but he couldn't come that dodge They came to hear Ililli, and were not going home without it. No people ever loved a man as Edgetichl loves Butler. As somebody saul about somebody else, 4 We will keep on voting for him for United Suites Sen ator until he dies, and (hen vote for his executor." A Regular Old Red Hot A regular old rod hot Democrat, who was al thc Democratic meeting at Edge field Wednesday, says he "never heard an oath or saw an intoxicated mao during thc whole day." We always wanted to be buried in Ed gr field, but now we would like to livethero. Hurrah for the nhl Colinly ! -/?rainler. Hyacinth, Tulip, Crocus Now is ihe time to buy llulhs and Winter BOSCH.

We know them well A Sample Waiter. Mr. Ben Covar, of the Bazaar Saloon, I sends the A doertiser corps a royal waiter j of drinks suitable to tho season. That' Mr. Covar wields a magic hand in tho I line, is beyond all doubt. Dinners. On Monday next particularly, and throughout the woek, May bin Griffin will have dinners in readiness for his patrons Sorghum for the Million And speaking of the Ninety Six sec lion, reminds ns of our young friend, Henry Mays, or was it William, who passed through our town a few days back on his way from Augusta-with a lovely new buggj' from Day, Tannahill ?fe Co.-fresh from Fred. Smith's brother in N w Haven. But it is not the buggy we set out to speak of. On the con'rary I it was tho empty barrels ami hogsheads j we saw our young friend purchasing i from Mr. Lynch-a wagon load of them. At first the impression crept into our! mind that the handsome boy was going: to become a moonshiner-an illicit dis i tiller of corn juice-but upon gently querying him, he staggered us with the information that he had ten acres of sor ghum, and WHS about to b*-gin to boil it For Day & Tannahill. We received the following singular; note a day or two ago. And while the I note is (rom Peekskill, the envelope wits stamped ".Johnston:" PKKKSKII.r., N. Y., Sept.

McMaster, of Columbia, whoal t tittled our campaign meeting last week, and who has been traveling a good deai in Chester County lately gave us a most eh arming picture of the looks of things in that section, ile is a gentleman of rare intelligence ; and we think his de linealion of the blessed effects of the stock law would con vert even the fiercest opponent.
