Death is alarming, even when expected ilay after (lay. It was so with the passingaway of Mrs. Margaret M. Thomson, which occurred at her residence in this town, on Monday last, at two o'clock, a. in., in her sixtieth year. Mrs. Thomson was a Miss <toumillion. ond born in Fdgofield County. She was married first to Mr. Ilollinsworth, of Kdegefield, and then to our distinguished and lamented Judge Thomas Thomson, whom she survived. For weeks the shadow of death was athwart her troubled path, for months she l?nd been a keen sufferer, all of which she bore with Christian resignation and fortitude. The funeral services were conducted in the I'reshyterian Church by the Rev. W. R. Richardson, who preached a truthful and comforting sermon, at the close of which there was scarcely a tearless eye in the congregation. Then the procession wended its slow way to Long Cane grave yard, where the sod was closed upon a matronly woman, gone to reap the reward of a pure and generous life. The Cedar Springs Rioters. > Trial Justice DeBruhl issued warrants ^ on Monday last, for the Cedar Springs rioters, and on Tuesday they were brought before him for preliminary hearing. From the evidence it seems that Henry Adams, Frank l'atton, Stony Brown, Ben Henderson, Watt Ramey, Bob "Wardlaw, W. W. Frazier and Sol Martin with II number of others u-ere nriiied at Cedar Springs precinct, ami shooting off pistols and brandishing; clubs, made it extremely unpleasant for the people, quint!}' collected there to vote. The first five were admitted to bail, and will answer an indictment for riot at the next term of Court. Hob Wardlaw was sent to jail for further investigation. W. W. Frazier, the instigator and ring leader bought a ticket at Verderv Saturday and has left for parts unknown. Sol Morion is hiding out. Twenty-five negroes besides those mentioned had clubs and swore vehemently that they would stand by FraIy.ier. This is ar. outrageous aft air and a the ring leaders should be taught a lesson they will not forget. Important, meeting at IiCbanon. The council of the Elders and Deacons of the Presbyterian Church, of Abbeville County, is called to meet at Lebanon Church, at Jo o'clock on the morning of Friday, the 28th day of November. 1884.

All who e.\pect to attend will ? please notify .lames Gihert, Abbeville, S. C.. by postal card. The meeting will include the 5th Sunday in November, when Dr. J. O. Lindsay will he installed 3\istor of Lebanon Church. (D. V.; lJy the Executive Committee 10th November 188-1. Dea'h of a Faithful NVcrn. David Coulter, an ohl and respectable negro of Mont'Try, diet! Inst Sunday night. He was noted for honesty and industry and never voted any other than the Democratic ticket. In his latter days he became perfectly helpless, but was cheerfully taken care of hv his former master, Mr. Kdwin Calhoun, thus rewarding him in some measure for his former faithfulness. The white people of his neighborhood very generally attended his funeral. Horso Stolen. Horse stealing is evidently on the increase. Mr. .Jason Simpson, living at Mrs. Uarksdale's. about three miles from town, had his big horse stolen from his stable last Sunday night. How any man could be fool enough to steal such n horse wo cannot imagine?it would take at least an acre of pine tops lo hide . liiin. Mr. Simpson thinks that the horso was taken out of the stable b}some one wanting a ride and hopes to ^ find him in a clay or two. Immigration. C. B. Walker, an immigration agent from Arkansas, is to make an address to the colored population at the Promised Land to-day at two o'clock. We learn that an extra train will bo run from Greenwood for the accommodation of those interested, and that stcuuous ef forts are being made to get the negroes to emigrate. PERSONAL. llov. Br. J. O.

Business men go to the Mekskngkii office for Xote Heads and Envelopes. A man who takes Gilder's I'ills becomes a new man at once. Gus Richey has ginned 200 bales of cotton at his public gin in the last fewweeks. The firing of the dynamite cartridges was heard twenty-two miles from Abbeville. J. M.

Mr. S. S. Kllenborg, of this County, has gone to Troy, lielle County, Texas, there to make his home. We always regret to sec our young men leaving the old State. In ten years there will be a young democracy in this country equal to any demands the times may make upon them. They will be thoroughl}' versed in election ways. A. M. Hill A Sons have put down a nice new pavement in front of their store. Others on the same side of the street might follow suit to the improvement of the walk, and the satisfaction of the walkers. Applicants for examination as tcachers?principally colored, continue to present themselves. The examination has closed, and only under peculiar circumstances are they allowed to stand. Avoid the harsh irritating "comnonnilK so often sold as purging medicines, and correct the irregularities of the bowels by the use of Aver's Cathartic Pills, which are mild and gentle, yet thorough and searching, in their action. Frank Cunningham cast his first vote on Tuesday, last?and it was for Cleveland and Hendricks. This is the sort of vote that elected our democratic I'residens. May Frank live long to cast more votes for good men. The legal fraternity will be well represented in Columbia. In addition to those mentioned elsewhere, Messrs. W. O. Bradloy, \V. L. Miller. K. Ci. Graydon, K. B. Gary, \V. C. McGowan and T. I'. Cothran expect to lend the light of their countenances thereunto. The board of County Commissioners met Tuesday. They are paying all claims except Trial Justices and constables. Wo llflVP .1 rrfirwl linni-il !' o ' tnu incoming board will borrow money nt 7 or 10 per cent. and pay off claims as they arc made, we will be satisfied. John Knox iV Co., have levied on the Shives mule under mortgage. This is the aforesaid mule the casus belli between William and Ibson Shives in a law ?uit some years back. William has turned Democrat and Ibson is about to be sold out. Tempora mutant. Thursday night, the public square was a blaze of light. In the centre was a huge bonfire, and in every direction roman candles and sky rockets, aid all the other fireworks that Jim Lawson had brought for Christmas were being fired. At intervals the loud detonations of Lowry's dynamite cartridges were heard. The Band played some of its finest airs, and the streets was crowded with citizens. On tho steps of the new hotel a large number of ladies had congregated to witness the beautiful sight, and add their rejoicings to those of the men over tho election of Cleveland and Hendricks. . / Window Glass ; Window Glass ; Prepared Putty ; Prepared Putty, at Speep & Lowry's.

Mr. Syfan 011 last Thursday evening, blew a long and loud blast as the train came into town to apprize our people of the good news of Cleveland's election, ll reminded some of the citizens of thnt during the war?lie used to blow the long whistle us a signal of a Southern victory. A Yankee connected with the Circus, bccaine so exhilarated the night of the demonstration, he complimented the members of the Hand and nearly every body in town with a ticket to the Circus. He gave the drummer boy two, personally, saying that one was for his girl. The County Commissioners are very strict?unreasonably so?in requiring claims to be tiled by the 1st of November. There is a directory statute to that Gltect, hut nothing requiring a man who does labor, for the County to wait twelve months for his pay, as a penalty for not complying. The only casualty of the Democratic jubilee Thursday nigh I. was a shot from a Roman candle which had the impudence and at the same time the good taste to strike the cheek of one of our most beautiful young ladies. She is patriotic enough to wish that it would leave a scar there in memory of Cleveland's victory. The "Homeless" seems to have died a natural death. Can't our young men engage Fishburn's band anil givu the town a beautiful ball in the new hotel ? The Hop last May in the Court House was said by the knowing ones to have been the most beautiful entertainment ever given in Abbeville. The Literary Club held its usual meeting on last Friday evening at the residence of M. 1'. DeHruhl, Ksq. Itcv.

We are loth to believe a white man guilty of such a crime, and suspend judgment till the evidence on both sides ts heard. Sale of Valuable lMnee. Capl. John R.

Nkw Yohk, November 10.?The lUaine men are dying bard but aro dying surely. They aro still keeping up their game of bluff, but the whole* concern is going to pieces from the inside. The day after the election when Maine telegraphed here for bis men to claim every- i tiling all agreed to obey his order. 1 Since then the desertions daily from the ' ranks of the IMaiuc managers have been , large and on the increase : anil now it . is said that there arc only a few proini- l nent men here who will lend their aid to 1 keep up the light. Klkins nnd Jones, however, persist in going on, and, it is said are receiving financial aid to carry ] out their schemes from Jay tiould and his friends. To-day thov suddenly determined to endeavor to capture the electoral votes of Virginia and West Virginia, nnd tonight a gentleman prominently identified with the Pacific Railroad left here for Petersburg, Va., carrying with him a largo amount of money. The scheme was known to the Democrats before the gentleman started, and when he gets to Petersburg he -will find that the avenues through which he expected to work have been effectually closed. Pension Commissioner Dudley did not slay here, but went right through to Washington. Between Indianapolis and this city he was told of the feeling here, and telegraphed to Steve Klkius that public opinion run too high to attempt to do anything now for Mr. Blaine outside of the returns, jjiul for his part he wished to be excused. William M. Kvarts, however, intends to keep up the light and to-n iglit said it would take a week or ten days to get the actual count. Clarence A. Seward, Benj. K. Tracy and George Bliss have been retained with him as counsel in this city. Leading lawyers have also been retained in all <1... - ?: ? ?i..- - -- 111vj cxmiiiliu?) in me nunu iu Kcruuni/.c the canvass in their respective localities. The democrats will also bo represented by equally as good if not better legal talent. Hx-Senntor Uoseoo Conkling has come to the front and openly declared his determination to stop the contemplated fraud of the Blaine men. To-night he was in consultatation, at the Iloll'man House, with Aaron .1. Yanderpool, J as. K. Carter, Francis C. Burton and other lawyers, who also will represent the Democratic National and State Committees should occasion repuire. Mr. Conkling will act as senior counsel. The Democratic National Committee are in daily receipt of letters from all quarters in this State and also from other States which give the details of attempted frauds on the part of the Blaine men. The following, written by a prominent citizen of Indianapolis, and who is in a I position to know of what lie writes, is a | fair sample of those received : "On Wednesday afternoon I made the | startling discovery of of a conspiracy on the part of John C. Lew and Steve Elkins to have the returns altered and raised in some of the counties of this State. I took immediate steps to checkmate it. On Thursday, at the the meeting of the county hoard of couvasscrs in the various countics, vigilaptmen on our side appeared armed with certified copies of the vote in each precinct as it had been countcd 011 election night, and 110 attempt to carry out their design was made, except in one county in which the figures were raised some hundreds." J. 11. 1'. THE WAY IT LOOKS NOW. New York's Laws too Perfect to J Admit of Any Counting Out. Watkhtows, {N. Y., November 1U.? Attorney-General O'llrien,a member of the State canvassing board, in a speech to the Democrats hero said ; '"I have no fears that the wishes or judgment of the people, as expressed at the ballot box, will be falsified or defeated. No party or set of men can steal the electoral vote of the Empire State. The laws of the State in regard to elections and the counting of votes are too perfect to admit of fraud, and the people of New York are too much in earnest to tolerate fraud, evon if it were possible. The votes given by by the people of this State, T have nodoubt, will be honestly counted, and the result truthfully declared. A Single Pact Ik Worth a Shlp-Loud of Areuiiieiit." Mr. W. II. Lathrop, of South Easton, Mass., under (Into of Jan. 7, 1884, says: "Mv father had for rears an eating cancer on his under lip, which had been gradually growing worse until it had cnten away his under lip down to the gums, and was feeding itself on the inside of his cheek, and the surgeons said a horrible death was soon to come. We gave | him nine bottles of Swift's Specific and he has been entirely cured. It has created great excitement in this scction." Twisted Bonos. Mr. J. R. Stewart of Macon, CJa., a well known and trustworthy gentleman, makes the following statement.: "My son who was between three and four years old, was all drawn un with rheumatism. His bones were twisteil and he was all doubled out of shape. He suffered intense pain. Had lost his appetite, was cross and fretful. He was reduced to a mere skeleton, and had to be carried about on a pillow. As these cases of rheumatism, where the bones were twisted it? -it t---t f nil I' inn nviu mi ciuu^cu, mill lor years bafiled tlie skill of the most eminent physicians, I determined to use Swift's Specific, as I had seen testimonials from men whom I knew to be trustworthy, of similar cases it had cured. I used two large bottles of S. S. S. according to dircctioi.s, with the most satisfactory results. Mv son commenccrt im. proving with the first dose of the medicineMis sufferings diminished daily and his appetite increased ; he became cheerful and in good spirits. Gradually he regained use of his limbs, the twisted bones and joints straightened out and in less than two months he was entirely cured, and could walk and get about as well ns any child of his age. Beware of imitations of Swift's Snecific, gotten up by unprincipled parties to deceive the public ; some of these frauds bear the lie in their faces purporting to be vegetable remedies, when they arc really nothing but strong solutions of mercury and potash.
