Mitchell delivered a practical address to the ?Grangers, pointing out the good accom? plished to the country by the Order, and showing its mission in tho future. . He was followed byMr! G. F. Tolly, who was pressed into service to make a political speech, which he did in an able and im? pressive manner, calling out frequent and hearty applause. The meeting then ad? journed, after having contemplated most agreeably four very imporl_it themes. The occasion of the temper? ice and po? litical picnic at the Carswell Institute on Wednesday, 14th instant,, called out the attendance of a large number of ladies aud gentlemen from that neighborhood and the surrounding country. ? The morning was devoted to the interests of the temperance cause, and excellent and impressive ad? dresses, were .delivered in its behal_by Messrs. G. V. Barnes and A. J.

P. Clinkscales, who made an "exoellenf address by" way of opening, and introduced as the first speaker Hon. J. N. Lipscomb, Master of the Btat:? Grangev who delivered an able, eloquent and exhaustive address upon the Grange and kindred sub? jects. At the conclusion of this speech din? ner was announced, and as is usual at such gatherings in the Corner, the most ample provisions bad been made to entertain all' who were present, and the dinner was greatly eujoyed.

Cray ton were called for by the crowd, and re? sponded in clear, forcible and interesting political speeches, which were well received and roundly applauded. The meeting then adjourned. The Grange aud Democratic Club pic nie in Brushy Creek'on last Wednesday was a most successful and pleasant meeting. The exercises of the day were presided over by ?_T?^fl.'J.-King: and in the morning they consisted of prayer by Rev. Mr. Griffin, and able and practical speeches from Coli. R. W. Simpson and \V. S. Pickens upon the 'Grange, its origin,1 development and future. These addresses were instructive to the au? dience and very encouraging to the.Patrons of Husbandry. - At the conclusion of these speeches an elegant basket pic nie dinner .was spread, and every one present partook of the bountiful repast, after which the meeting re-assembled to listen to timely, earnest and pointed political _peecb.es from Messrs. R. W. Simpson, E. B. Murray, W. 8. Pickens and T. H. BusselL In politics the people of Brushy Creek are thoroughly alive and are well organized. Their meet _g was enthusiastic^ and all the indications promise better results than were achieved in 1170. At this meeting eight colored men joined the club, and a great many more are expected to job. soon. The citizens of Roek Mills township and of the surrounding country were greatly shocked on last Tu-jsday to learn that Henry, -a little: son - of Mr. Joseph A. McLeskey, about twelve years of age,' had been acci? dentally drowned in Seneca River. Henry and a younger brother were engaged in pull? ing fodder in a field near the river, and about ten o'clock he went in bathing by himself. He remained so long .that Ids brother went to-look for him, and upon arriving at the river bank found his clothes but could sse nothing of Henry, whereupon the alarm was given,, and upon the assem? blage of a number of the neighbors the river was searched, and the body found 'some ' fifty yards ??below the b .-.thing place. When found he had been drowned for more than three hours, so-that resn_citatipu'was impossible. This occurrence is an exceed? ingly sad one, and is greatly lamented by tue-whole co mm unity. Henry McLeskey was a bright and energetic lad, who was much beloved by his friends. His parents have the warmest sympathies of. the entire community in this sudden and sad bereave? ment Once more tho reaper has been in our midst and removed from lifo a most excel? lent and pious young lady. Miss Hattle, daughter of Mr. E. F. Murrah. died on last Sunday morning after a long and tedious illness, during which she received every care and attention which it was possible for medical skill or devoted parenls to render. It was, however, impossible to arrest the course of the destroyer, and after suffering for months she passed from a world of an? guish and sorrow with a peace and resigna? tion which render even death beautiful, and point to a happy state beyond. Miss Murrah was an intelligent, Christian lady, and had for several years been a consistent and active member of the Methodist Church at this place. She wai affable to? wards those she met, and was greatly be? loved by her friends. Her early death is lamented by many friends and acquaintan? ces, who sympathise most sincerely with Jier bereaved parents m their sorrow. Her remains were placed to rest in the Presby? terian Church-yard on last Monday, after very solemn, beautiful and appropriate fu? neral services, which were conducted by Beva H. F. Chrietzberg and D. E. Frierson. The Grange and political picnic at Ever? green on last Friday was a pleasant affair. The morning was devoted to Grange exer? cises principally, and was presided 0 vor by Maj. E. J. Earle, Master of Hampton Grange. The essays expected for the occa? sion were not presented, and their places were filled by speeches. John E. Brcazeale, Esq., was first introduced as ehe orator of the day, and responded in an ablo address upon the Grange, its work-and its prospects. He was followed in excellent speeches by Messrs. B. F. Cray ton, J. W. Norris and John B. Moore, after which ax intermission was taken for dinner, which was provided ; for all present In a sumptuous manner. In the afternoon the meeting was organized ! as a political meeting, and Mr. B. A. Davis was elected chairman. Maj. E. B. Murray was introduced as the first speaker, and be? fore he had concluded his remarks the clouds, which had been lowering all day, began raining, so that the meeting was speedily adjourned. A large portion of the crowd repaired to the residence of Maj. E. J. Earle for shelter, and- a number of the young people present improved the opportunity to liave a dance, which they enjoyed very much, if appearances are not deceptive. The day was a most agreeable one, despite its rainy termination. The military and political pic nie near Mr. G. W. Farmer's residence, in the Fork, on . last Saturday, was largely attended by ladies and gentlemen. The companies of Capte. Kidd and Mason were present, and for an hour or two practiced company drill ing, in which they showed considerable proficiency, and thereby afforded entertain? ment to those present. At the conclusion of the drill the speaking began, Maj. 0. W. Maret, President of Fork Democratic Club, No. 2, introducing the speakers. In the morning Messrs. J. A. Hoyt, E. M. Rucker and E. B. Murray spoke. Dinner was then announced, and one of the most abundant and delicious pic nio dinners we havo ever seen was done ample justice to by those who were present. After this the crowd re? assembled and speeches were made by Messrs. W. C. Brown, R. W. Simpson, H. R. Vandiver, F. E. Harrison and G. W. Maret. Throughout the entire day the au? dience was attentive and the speaking was pointed, forcible and entertaining. The order of tha day was excellent, and nothing occurred to max the pleasure of the occa? sion. The citizens of the Fork are behind none in the interest in politics and their club organizations. The drill of the upper Battalion of the Eastern Regiment at Williamston on last Friday was a great success. Col. L. E. Campbell commanded the drill, while Cols. M. P. Tribble, J. T. C. Jones and Maj. J. N. Vandiver were present as reviewing officers. Col. Campbell displayed an unexpected pro? ficiency as a drill master, and handled his battalion with skill. Captains Cox, Guy ton, Dac us, Snipes and their respective com pa? nic- evinced thorough acquaintance with their duties, and tha entire maneuvers of the drill were carried out with soldi er-Uke precision. Captains Horton, Martin and Neal were also at their posts in handsome uniforms, and everything presented a thor? oughly military appearance. After the drill an hour wae taken for dinner, and the visi? tors present were roost bountifully and hospitably provided for by the citizens of Williamston. .Dinner over, the crowd re? assembled at the stand, and Col. Campbell introduced Maj. E. B. Murray, who deliv - ered a military and political address, 'at the conclusion of which Dr. John Wilson, Pres? ident of the Williamston Democratic Club, introduced Dr. W. C. Brown and Col. J. L. Orr, each of whom made excellent speeches. The day was a pleasant one, and its exercises were very entertaining. CLUB MEETINGS. Hop??cll.

W. A.. Dickbon, Sec. Club No. L WHY KOT ABATE THE HUIBAHCEt Editob Ixtxllioknchb : Now that a new Town Council ha> been inducted into office, it will be expected to project reforms of some kind, oh the principle-that a "new broom sweeps clean." While it is commendable to seek the convenience of the people in putting a town clock, upon the steeple of the Court House, it is equally incumbent to prevent the inconvenience of any portion of the community. A* nuisance of long standing is the market bell, which is caused to ring at a most unseasonable hour in the morning, and which does not avail the sup? posed purpose of its ringing. It is an an? noyance to several families, who are entitled to consideration, and does not meet the ob? ject desired in giving publicity to the fact that beef is in the market, except to the very few who are in close and uncomforta? ble proximity to the market-bouse.. If the bell could be hear, over the town, an excuse might be framed for a continuance of the custom. Will th i city fathers look into the matter? Rustictb. ! Ma. Editor: If you will allow us u short space, we will say a few words for music We have just closed a series of singing schools in Brushy Creek township. Hav? ing taught one week at each of the follow? ing places: Fair vie w, St. Paul, Bethesda and Mt. Pisgab. These Churches were near enough for the different schools to visit. Consequently the attendance was large. Great interest was manifested on the part of each school in studying and culti? vating local music, and notwithstanding the heat of the weather has been oppressive most of the tinin, we were favored with a large attendance and the best of erdar. We proposed to the different schools the pro? priety of organizing a singing club or asso? ciation, to bo called the singing association of Brushy Creek township. All .the schools, with many others concurring, were invited to participate in selecting officers, which resulted a?i follows: J. W. Pickens, President; J. B. Griffin, Vice President; J. B. Singleton, Secretary. The Association resolved to ho':d its first session with Bethesda Church on Saturday before the second Sunday in September. J. 0. DouTHrr. Ma. Editor: Will you allow me a small place in your paper to explain the financial report of the WilliamBton Baptist Church, which was read at the last Association ? I think this is due to the Church, for as the report reads it would lead people to think that we did not pay our pastor. I make up my report from August to August. In 1877 our pastor left for the Seminary the first of September. We paid him up to that time, and did not have any pastor the remai ader of the year, and have paid only a small portion on pastor's salary for this year. We give, or will at the close of this year, 81?) to our pastor. C. E. Horton, j Williamston, August 19.
