Mrs Ida Sheppard and Mrs Marie May visited Mrs Carrie Mi:ler in the country on Saturday andJSunday. Mrs ZillaHart will leave Edgefield for John Hopkins hospital in Balti more next Sunday, where she goes to be treated. Mr Herbert Smith,of our townee turned home last week from avilit to his .nother in Union, where she has been very ill, but is now better. J H Cantelou Esq., and the entire family have been quite sick for some time. Weare glad to hear, however, that from last accounts all were improving. Kev P P Blalock and family have re moved to the place formerly occupied bj Miss Amanda Har .son, and will remain there until their new home so completed on Columbia street. Mr Lamb, who is a member of the Sunday-school at the factury, has pre sented the school with a library of sixty-one books. This gift was highly appreciated, and Mr Lamb was elected orar?an. "^Mrs Rosa Lott expects to leave Edgefield to-day for Orangeburg, where she will make her home with Mrs Samuel Dibble, and during the sommer months will spend her time with at Harris Lithia Springs. J W DeVore, Esq., has been very suc cessful at this term of court, gaining all of his cases. They say he is a roar ing lion attorney, and it takes two lawyers to buck "agin" him, aud then many'times he downs them. Mrs Helen Sheppard was detained from attending the funeral obsequies of her father, Judge Wallace, on ac count of an attack of grip. The many friends in Edgefield sympathize with her in this bereavement. Miss Lena Stevens, of Elmwood, wrote a very interesting account of Mission Day at Little Stevens creek church for last week's Baptist Courier. Among those mentioned who took ?j^^Hi-tfee-fircgraui were Prof F JS' K HRey, Rev P P Blalock, Pi of J F ?ntzuiinger, and Re*Luthea White. Miss Rosa Lake, who has been in Edgefield for several months, paid a visit to Johnston last week. She will return to her home in Lexington, Ky., in a short time, visiting the BYPU convention in Charleston,and relatives in Atlanta on her return trip. The mission services Sunday even ing ending the week of self denial in our Baptist church, were very inter esting. Talks were made by Mr BD Thames on consecration of time, tal ents, and means to the cause of Ch: ist, bj Rev Lather White on the import ance of missionary spirit and cuter prise, and by Dr Gwaltney. Miss Hettie Sheppard has been otter ed a position by Rev Mr Wingo as house keeper at the High School and Summer Resort a1: Campobello, S. C. Mr Wingo has charge of the Mineral Chalybeate Springs at that place dur ing the nummer months, and presides over the High School during the schol astic session. The State of last Friday contains a very touching and convincing article from Rev P P Blal.ick, urgiug the ne cessity of separate institutions of learning for the deaf and the blind. An appropriation has already been made to Cedar Springs by the legisla ture, but Mr Blalock hopes that this will not deter this body from the con sideration of an establishment for the blind alone at some future day. The President of Jthe Auf Wieder sehen club received information fr >m headquarters that a travelling library belonging to the Federation was ship ped to her March 19th. This library will be in charge of Mrs F IV P Butler, who will be delighted to lend books to all who wish them. We cannot keep the library longer than six weeks, and hope all who wish books will call and get them at once, as on May 1st the library will be senttoaoother place. Rev Jonathan Bell preaehed in our Baptist church on Sunday morning His text was taken from the first chapter of Homans, *I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation to everj one that believeth."

It ie always a pleasure to be able to say something in commendation of our colored friends, who have lived amens; us an upright and virtuous life. Such was the life of Laura Brook.-, who :ied at her home in ridgefield on Sunday night. March 17t.h. She had iked ir! Edgeh'eldall her life, and was respect ed by all her acquaintances, and be loved hy many whom she was enabled to help in this world.

No Cure, No Pay. ">0? Observations on a Visit to Aiken. It used to be the village of AiKni, but now it is the city cf Aiken yes a live growing cit v. The b-.'Sf pert about the city is the delicious sweet soft water that is furnish d by the city water works from the Artesian we'd. On Edgefield Av enue the stand pipe, HS it is called towers up runny feet and throws this absolutely pure water all over the city of Aiken. The next most attractive feature of this growing little city i? the lovely new cottagr-s being built on all sides. They cull them cottages but I call tbem great big houses. The next thing about this city is the many, many northern people you 8'je on all sides, you only see lnem, but never got acquaint d with them, they pass add n*ver speak, because this is the custom where they come from. Our peo ple can never get used to this Btyie. Many play Pul > which is old fafh iou eh i n ney on horse back, which is very exciting indeed, and V9ry bard on th? ponies. The players are very rich and have three or four mounts waiting for their masters to change as o?ten as th'y like. We went to the Golf Rinks a i< they walk and pla}' this gamo up and down hill and have little niggers to carry tho balls and gulf sticks. It takes a long time for tbe-n to rn mound tbftSO linke two or three miles arouud. This gan e evidently was gotten up for old people and fat people to lake exe /cse. ? ost people call the northern people Yankee, bul most ol' thom are from the middle and western ?tates and not tn in Ni w England. They should be termed norlin rn people. The style that mon :>H found:' our people IR the ivenvrj who ure rich enough and n nj enong ? to ride hores back I i Ic . . u mau. WH Lave nen tho Indian Sou .

Their idea tor doing <o oouid not bo - x I'laiuecl to mo and stiil remains a mystery. The citizens cf Aiken give up everything they have in tho way of luxuries, horses, .houses, vehicles, &c, tor the convenience and com fort of tbs north:-T vjflftors. This is becaus they pu ftly foMhis kindn.'bs eiUmdadW^.m by the citizens. Ofcour?? money is nc object to these visitors. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Whitney the wealthey New Yorker, who has dor.e so much for Aiken. When I saw him he bad just made a land deal. He was the man you know who served in Mr. Cleveland's cab inet as Secretary of the Navy and ful.'y deserves the credit for the ?rentne's of our navy at pr?tent. Mr. Whitney is about five feet ten inches, iron gray mustache and bair and about sixty years old and V? ry pleasant. Strange to say there are very few consumptives in Aiken this sf'ason. Most of the visitors are down for the grand Southern cli mate, and a groat many for sport and pleasure Dr. T. G. Croft is 'he leading physician of Aiken, and a royall) good :nan he is, ami deeply inter-) esl^d in the bright future of his town. VISITOR. I wanta first-class Milch Cow, fresi? to pail, S. T.

I liiiiiniiiimiiMiiiiniiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiHiiHiiimimir; I think the plain demonstration to thc eye of the real scientific dit" Scotties that "hills" present in our public roads, as furnished in the excellent diagrams prepared by the Advertiser in the last article nn this subject, has made the "bill" matter lake a serious aspee1 in the view of many. It is seen that while enly tho. surface of the road-the boles, ruts and mud-are thought of by many in considering good roods, Ihemat'er of hills-steepness of grade-is by far fie nmst impor tant consideration. No matter how "smooth" the road may be if it goes up a steep hill, only a light load can be hauled up it and only slow time can be made. It was .v?de ?iiaiii??ht, I believe that ail tn" werk in Chris'endom can't make a -'good road" np a hill ; and .thai the only waj to make a good road there is to go around the hill. We saw that un tho authority ot ihe Uuited States Government, only four-fifth s as heavy a load can be pulled up a bill rising two feet in every 100 as on a level, that it costs one-and-a'-half times move to haul up a bill rising five feoi in 100 as on a line, that four feet in 100 is the required grade io the b-^strofd sections, and that only one-fourth as heavy a load can be hauled U? a hill rising 10 feet iu 100 as on a level. We also saw that we have many bills cf from 15 to 30 per cent (lo io 30 t*et rise in 100) in Edgetield County and some (in small portions) as steep as 50 per cent! We also 6aw that people elsewhere are doing away with the hills. It was point ed out in th? 1 ist article that the b?"?sl thing to do. on the authority of the Government, was to employ a good road engineer and have the roads surveyed around liso OXFORDS-just opened up 1.75. .en *:T?-all the latest styles! the hills, as they do elsewhere, -bis is the on Iv thing and the j ti.ing to do. Our roads were laid cul in th? former dajs unscientifi cally, and are now costing us too n.uch to adhere to fh*m ; the time has com? when wo ought to leave them and establish long, scientific grades. I wish, this article to appeal to three classes iu an effoit to do away with thc hil le : To the County Commissioners, the local rood overseers in the various com munities, and Jaud owners. Messrs. County Corambiaiouere, employ u firs:-c!a83 road engineer and have all the roads of the County re-sur veyed and re-located, scientifically, ond try to get the roads to conform to tho surveys a* np; div ss possi ble On tho au'honty of tht Uni ted Slatej Government, th? pres ent work being done on the hills is heilig "thrown a -/ay." Besides be in:; impossible to make "good reads''up them, what work is put on thom is s >on washed away. The county convicts would much hei fer be employed regrading roads around hills than working roads over llura, they would do the pao pie more practical good, and this work would bo permaueut; the road?, then, demand a re-survey ns speedily ns possible so as to 'void throwing away any moie work by the county convicts. I do not mean to criticize adversely thc County Board-on the contra ry I think we have a particularly alive admin ist ratiou j we have bren pursuing the old method, 1 only say that Ihe time has come iv heu I hopi \v?! will make a mark - .1 improvement. ? wish this ar tide t'? appeal also in a reasonable inj?liner loglucnl road overseers ir lr.- v.i rion H coin run M i ties ano tr) ha induce landholders along th( ' Ine s to a!l? w tin* roods to I e UhaugC'd, t.nd ?o I hu landhold' ;i ' to gram such changea-to voiuu t or them to the County Board ai \ turas possible I oj show that the] .ni iu earncpl about this matter ? -.icc as ar?.
