FAllEWEIiL TO GliEENWOOU. 1 To*hay wo come, to-morrow we go, ;1 ?ncl the events of our yesterdays arc j soon forgotten by the excited throng j which rushes onward doy after day to- , ward an-unknown goal, he it good or evil. ( "Nearly every person in this section Ituows something of the history of this , paper; the sudden changes that have taken place from time to time in its ^ownership and editorial management, and the third attempt of one of its foun ders to gain a foothold on journalism and permanently establish" a first-class loeal paper in Greenwood. From th? outstart, in 1881, when the paper was flint issued from the press, the enter -prise has been a financial failure, but has struggled on through the mists which threatened defeat, and, at the 'individual loss of its publishers has been kept alive, anxiously anticipating the coming of the time when Greenwood would show a greater- appreciation of the paper by mnterial aid and Support. Last Janunry the present proprietors of The Sai.im>a A huts purchased tho type, presses, &c., with the 'good will of tho paper, from Mr. T. F. ItiLRY. At that time the prospect for success, and the outlook for Green- . * wood's future,, were bright, indeed, nnd it was with a cheerful heart and u will , that knows not fnil, that wo have for i th'o past eight months made Tuk Annus a weekly, and wo hope a welcome and ; appreciated visitor, to many homes in Abbeville and adjoining counties. It , has been our pleasant duty to use overy , effort to publish a paper that would , please all; could we feel conscious < that in this we had succeeded we would >. ' 1 bo rewarded in part for any sacrifices we have made, or the pain we may have experienced in learning that our earnest efforts had produced no effect. The A'sous terminated its career in ( Gruenwood with its last issue. The presses, type, and entire outfit of the paper, together with the subscriptions, advertising contracts, and the good will i and. patronage of The Sai,ui>a Aimus have bu'en purchased by Messrs M. L. Honha&i, T. 1', Cothran and J. S. I'Elt;iirN,';"6f.'Abbeville, from which, place j'the paper - yyill lienco forth be published. -This is purely a business 'proceeding on the part of the parties interested , in the purchase and the uale, and should not-be considered bjany one as a financial embarrassment on iKft v?

I vuifvuiniiiii, Hi: ivuuiu iienrmy i thank all who have endeavored to render I pleasant onr Kojourn in Greenwood, and i toward those who have been indifferent < w<j cherish no ill-will. With a frater- i nal good-by to. our frionds of the press and a^|ender farewell to Greenwood and 1 her chivalrous and cultured citizens, we I turn doyen the curtain. < TO THE PUJSL1C. * We present to the public the first is- < sue of Thk Abbkvh.le Mbwenokk. Wo , /do not propose to make elaborate promises for the future, preferring that our , Actions speak for us. , ) It is needles* to say that in politics our paper is Democratic. Our desire is to make an hor.cst, in- i .dependent and fearless newspaper?demoted to tha interests of the community i in which we live and to thoso op this i county and Mate. In the furtherance of i those interests we shall at all times < speak plainly and honestly, uninfluenced i to turn aside from our convictions of i right "through fear, favor or affection, i reward or tho hope of reward." Doubt- i loss we shall oftentimes differ from our 1 friends; hut we shall express our honest I convictions, nevertheless, trusting to i their sense of. fairness to believe in tho 1 honesty of our purpose. I | We sincerely trust that pur relations V with the prens of the state will bej>loAS- < tint and agreeable, and boj^llwnf to un- 1 derstaud now thaiJ^c shall endeavor in j all our di^sSsions with them to bo cour- | ^tfVfsVand to r?taina'propor appreciation i of their right* and privileges. . t ? ' ' Hespoctfully, J cuwc r-j-s v^-v-> OUR CAMPAIGN MUK'i'lNG. We are sorry to hear that there are ioine of our people who do not take an i nterest in the success of the campaign neeting at this placu on the 7t)i inst. f that indifference arises from a ton jrent sense of security it is hose who entertain it to disabus^^^V ninds of the error. The republicans lave a state ticket in the Held, and it is evident from the tone of discussion in heir convention that the negroes are dive to the importance of making a Ight for state officers if they desire to ceep their party organization intact. Moreover, it is necessary that the upjountry poll its full democratic vote to :ounteract the very heavy majorities of lie republicans in the lower countics. [lukewarmness on our part may imperil .lie success of our electoral ticket and hereby the success of our national canlidates. It is an assured fact that John 11. Tolbert desires to run for Congress igainst Col. Aiken. lie can scarcely nitertain a hope of election. Hut it beioovcs us to bury his aspirations under i majority for Aiken sufficient to present a vexatious contest for his seat. If this indifference proceeds from any >ther feeling than that we have spoken >f, it is unworthy our people and our :ounty. Already Pickens, Oconco and \nderson have had grand and onthusiistic meetings, and Newberry will follow mit on the 3d inst. We cannot afford .o be behind our sister counties. Nor ivill we. The success of the meeting is insured. The executive committee are working with indefatigable zeal to this jnd, and their arrangements are nearly romplete for the biggest and most interisting meeting held in Abbeville since the memorable "Big Tuesday" in '76. Between one thousand and liftoen hunIred mounted men, in red shirts, will be in lino. The committee have good reason to believe that Senator Vnnc j will t>e present, together with Senator Hampton, Gov. Thomnson. and othor (lis linguishcd speakers. Arrangements arc being maile to furnish a barbecue free to ill who coine. So shake off your lethirgy, don the rtd shirt, and be present an the 7th, that the moral force of our meeting may bo sufficiently great to destroy any secret hope our enemies may entertain of success.' THK SITUATION IN OHIO. Tiik State election in Ohio comes off in October and the result is anxiously looked forward to as the first substantial indication of Ohio's vote in the presidential election, and to some extent the presidential election itself. Not that the Democrats need give up the ship if Ohio is lost, for conceding the electoral vote of that will o' wisp state, the votes of New-York, Connecticut and New Jersey will be sufficient to hoist the ro torn) canuutate, lliu trutli tolling candidate into the Presidential chair. Ohio has been Republican in every presidential election since 185G,- occasionally relieved in the otf yoars by Democratic victories. At those elections tho tide in favor of Democratic success seems to havo been turned by certain locn.1 issues ?the liquor and wool questions, which have alienated many of the Republicans but neither of which enter as factiors in the present campaign, and tho Democrats must win only on their own intrinsic merit and the striking demerit of tUeir opponents. In both of which they are us solid as the rock of Gibraltar. Thk recurring inconvenience of looking up registration certificates before ev L?ry election, and tho difficulty of the red tape machinery employed to renew them when their loss is established, ~ ? i-? * ju^tnui u jvmvujr uv which mi mis linrrussinj; trouble may bo avoided. Let every club in the county appoint either the secretary or some other suitable member of the club custodian of the registration, tickets of nil members of the club. The custodian of the registration tickets will thon procure a blank book and paste every ticket therein and index them by the name of the holder. This book can be desposited in iome secure.place during the period between the elections and at each election it can bp, produced at the voting precinct of the club to which it belongs ind kept there all day by the custodian. Whenever a man approaches the polls Itis name mny bo found in the index and his ticket immediately produced by tho custodian, an so on. For at least six months previous to svery election there is. a rummaging iround old dustj? papers, through "chists" that have not seen the light for eighteen months previous, to find the lost ticket. Many a wife's buck has ached after a day, perhaps more, employed in such laborious search. .Another very gieat advantage that will accrue from this system, will be that thereby the club roll of every club will be verified nnd tho number of members in ench club will be a fact of mathematical demonstration nnd precision. Whenever a question in the county club is to be Rcttled by a constitutional vote, we will be-certain that every club is reported with a correct membership. Wo do not propose that it be compulsory on tlio club members to commit their tickets to tho keeping of the custodian, but wo arc satisfied a vast majority of thein will be only too delighted to be relieved of the burden of taking care of thein. J(took G'ltKHUAM, Into Postmaster*. ; General, has been tendered tho Treasury " [ ortfolio made vacant by the death of Secretary Kolger by the President. and na.s occopted and qualified. : His appointuunt was unexpected by many and is uippoKed to be temporary?not to last luuger than December 1st, when ho wilt -csign to take a seat on the Federal Circuit Pcnch. C:?i.. J. W. Nou>\vooi>. of the Third Regiment of S. V. T.. has tendered his resignation. ^ ^ John \V. Garhktt, President of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, a great railroad king, is dead. Wk notice that Prof. 1). B. Johnson, who is so well and favorably remembered here, is again Superintendent of the Columbia Graded Schools. Miss Annie Bonhain, of Columbia, and Mr. Paul M. Briee, are among his assistants. Tiik contract for the building of Georgia's capital at Atlanta has been let for the price of $H(>2,762. It is to be built of Indiana stone and to be completed within the next three or four years. Legislators, what about the fast decaying state house of our own at Columbia? Do you propose to allow the coming Legislature to pass without an effort to complete it? Thk national democratic executive committee have issued a call for funds. It is published in another column. The most gratifying response has been made to this appeal, and it is evident that our people will not for want of a little money lose the victory now seemingly witbih their grasp. We have no doubt our connty executive committee will take charge of any contributions to this fund. Thk JVcmw and Courier came to us on Monday as an eight page paper, in which form it will be published hereafter. The first issue in the new form nntihiinofl n i'iif nf tUn r?n*r? U recently purchased. The News (ni<l Courier ranks as one of the first dailies in the whole southern country, and we do not doubt that in its enlarged form it will increase its reputation for progress and enterprise. At a meeting of the Democratic Executive Committee of the Seventh Congressional District, (the Klack District") it was resolved to cull a Congressional Convention, on October JHh, at ttummerville to "nominate a candidate for the Seventh District, if they should deem it advisable." The Democrats of that District are certainly in a hopeless majority and as that District was oll'ercd as a sacrifice to the "grim visaged Moloch," it is probable that tliev will have to endure the pain. To the former patrons of the Sufmlu A )'{jns, at Greenwood, we beg to say that we desire to keep up the relations of that paper with them. We will fulfill all the contracts of the Argus, and will endeavor to be always mindful of the interests of thut community. It is natural that its citizens should regret the removal of the paper from tli^ir town, ilut we will always gladly use its columns for the advancement of their interests and their pleasure, and trust to receive from them a generous support. That growing town, with its unexampled commercial advantages and splendid railroad facilities, bids fair to rivul any place in the up country. V?'e will he only too glad to aid its advancement. Skxatou Hampton said to the colored people of Anderson at their great meet ing on the 26th : "The Democratic party on its accession to power promised you its full protection, and as I stand hero in the sight of the people and of God, I say we have carried out every pledge made to you as a part of the people of South Carolina." These are words of as sacred truth as ever fell from the lips of man. and we know that the conscientious statesman, who was thought by some to he a little too conscientious in certain periods of our history, was proud to he able to stand boldly up and with a clear conscience proclaim the fidelity to its promises, of the Democracy of South Carolina, to which no greater praise can be given than that it has rodeemed its Statu and at the same time preseived its own integrity." The republican state convention met in Columbia lust Tuesday, and the scenes reported in the conrso of it? . ? r- "to" surpass anything in the line of confusion, ignorance and fraud we have ever read. The Taft delegates -from Charleston were excluded from the convention, and will, it is said, call another. The delegation from Abbeville, headed by Ab. Titus, was recognized by the convention. The following state ticket was nominated, though it .is thought that some of the nominees will not accept the nomination : For govornor, 1). T. Corbin, Charleston. l''or lieutenant-governor, D. A. Straker, Columbia. For adjutant-general, Qen. Carlos Stolbrand, Spartanburg. For treasurer, C. C. Macoy, Chester. For secretary of state, It. Li Smith, Charleston. For superintendent of education, the Kev. Joshua Wilson, Florenco. For attorney-general, Samuel W. Melton, Columbia. , For comptroller-general, K. J. Sawyer, Bennettsvllle. One of the most enthusiastic raf itings of the campaign, was held at Columbus, vfM?w) VII ?uv ?wiii upccuiicn nui c nvtio by tho distinguished leaders of the Democracy ? Hendricks, Carlisle and Bayard, besides many others. Carlisle seeins from all accounts to have made the specoh of the occasion. He arraigned Republican abuses and ocrruption and poured hot shot .into their ranks. There wero four stands erected for the itnmenso crowd, and before Carlisle finished tho other threo stands had boon deserted and the immenso sea of up-turned faces were directed to him. A letter from Gov. Cleveland was read, in which he gave uttemnco to a striking sontimcnt." "I believe," wrote ho, "that "the voters of the country are fully , "alivo to ihe necessity of installing an ^ "administration of public a Hairs, which V "shall bo truly their own, not only be"cause it is tho result of their choice, I " but because its selected instrumental!- ^ " ties are directly from tho body of the " people and impressed with the people's " thoughts and sentiments. They are "tired, I think, of a rule so long con- J[ "tinned that it has bred and fostered a "class standing between them and their | "political action, and whose interests in n "public affairs end with partisan /.onI I "and tho advancement of personal ad" vantage."'

The following Is Mr. John Pearson s Statement. In the Spring of 1882 I was attacked with a very bad cough, which continued to grow. ? worse until Full, when I got so weak that I oould not get. al>out. 1 tried a great many kinds of medicino. hut continued to grow worse. I was notified that I had consumption, and would probably die. Dr. HolloWay finally told me to try Brewer's Lung Itestorer. They ~ sent to Ward's Store and got a bottle, and 1 commenced taking it right away After taking two or three doses. I began to Improve, and by the time I had used up one bottle I was able to get on my foet asrnin. 1 am now In excellent health. I am confident that tho I.ung Restorer saved my life, ami my neighbors are of the same opinion. It Ifc the best Lung Remedy ever made, in my opinion. Dr. H. promised me that he would write to tho manufacturers and tell them of tho wonderful cure It medelnmy case. Statement of Mr.Benj. F. Hearndon: Early in November, 1RX1, whllo sewing on th*? machine. my wife was taken with u severe pain In her side, which was soon followed by hemorrhages from her lung* and a severe cough. Fever commenced, she could neither cat nor sleep, and In a few weeks slio was reduced to a living skeleton. Tho attending physician told mo that he thought one of her lungs was entirely gone. Slie could not retain tho most delicate nourishment on her stomach. I then agreed with Dr. Hulltvan, my fnftiily physician, to call Dr. Jlolloway In consultation. Thee made a final examination of tho patient, and pmnouneod tho cuse ho|>clcss. Dr. Hottoway then suctrostod the Brewer's I.iinir lfrv?#4\iw? a* a last resort, t sent for a hnttlo, ond pi\ t> tor a dose. 1 found that she could retain It on her Stomach, and after about llffl third d<V?o I t>OR?n e to notice some Improvement- In h?-r co ndltlon.
