EDGEFIELD, S. C., ffURSDAY, MARCH 15, 1888 I VOL. XL vin--NO. u. Hu CnAnnonilrkP. DEATH. There is a shadow standing by the cradle Where sleepeth softly a beloved child; It waitheth anxious at the gayest feasting, And mocks our laughter with its laugh ter wild ; It standeth by our bedside, by our tablei And with it? touch the present is de filed. It jeers our faint attempts to be forgetful Slanting its fleshless body at the dance Joins all our pleasures, shading them with promise That soon its claia3 it will in truth ad vance. We dare it for awhile ! then pray in an guish That it will haste to throw its poisoned lacee. And yet it doth defer its blow. Ah ? surely Those have the beat that follow it the first. So shall they never see their dearest perisii. Going one's self in surely not. the worst; Tia those who live beyond their best and dearest Who really feel that death's a thing accursed. -AU thc Year Bound. Sw Portal Regulations* The poste fTiw department, has amended section 37} ol the postal law& and regulatio; s eo that "free county newspapers may be forwarded to any other office in the connty where printed and published, with out additional charge, but in ordsr to forward such papers outside of the .county it should be accompanied with postage sufficient to pay the transient Tates thereon. When a regular sub ?criber to a newspaper removes from the delivery of a postoffice the post master should advise him that it is his duty to notify the publisher ol his .change of residence. Postmasters nhould, in the absence of instructions, .except in case of f:ee county news papers forwarded to an office within the county, notify the publisher that the paper is not called for. Post masters are to nnderstand by these .amendments that hereafter no matter ?can be forwarded in the mails alter it reaches its original address with out a new prepayment of postage, .except letters which have one full rate paid thereon, namely, three cents, and newspapers and other pe riodicals which are to be forwarded to subscribers from one Dostoffice to another which is in the same county where the paper to be forwarded is published and in whole or in part - J?"..

The house of Mr. Adams is the scene of the disturbance. Ab^w. ten days ago he was alarmed by loud rappinge against the 6ide of his house as il some one was beating against it with sticks. When he would open the door to go out and investigate the matter, the rapping would begin on the inside of the house. No trace ol the cause could be found. The dis turhance has greatly increased within a few days, and the rapping finally became s ) violent that Mr. Adams tore down the ceiling and WSIIB cl the house in endeavoring to find a reason or explanation for the singulai proceedings. The entire matter is in vol /ed in the greatest mystery. Peo pie are greatly alarmed, and are flock ing by hundreds to Mr. Adams's hous< to try to solve the mystery. Keepsakes More Precious tba Gold.

Ir. a recent isHue ot the Mountaineer, appeared an article by " H.

Will he receive back from ?Le .mills the quid pro quo for his cot ton seed-an equivalent with a mod orate profit, added to cover coat of transpor'ation ? In view of the great ?importance of this question to tho cotton planter, is it not in order for the Cotton Seed Oil Mill Company to furnish him with such information on the subject as the case demands ?" A reporter for the Netos showed this io Prof. J. M. Harris, of the Greenville Cotton Seed Oil Mill, and that gentleman gave this answer- . "iThe question presented ia, as " H. ."'flays a simple one.
