Ulmer, of Middle St. Mat thews, for a fine lot ? of his best varie ties of grapes, which we enjoyed as only newspaper men can enjoy a treat. Mr. E. P.

We trust the means used for his restoration to health may be bless ed with abundant success. Cattle Creek Camp Meeting is now in progress and we understand that many of our citizens propose to attend ou Saturday and Sunday. We hope they will have a nice time and return wiser and better men. Office hours on Sunday at Dr. Wannamaker's Drug Store are from 8 to 10 A. M., .and from G 1-2 to 8 1-2 P. M, In cases of emergency ac cess can bo had to the Drug Store any time during the day or night. We have been pained to learn of the death of the little child of Mr. M. Salley, which occurred during our absence. Our sympathies are with the patents and trust they may be comforted by an implicit faith in Him who does all things well. We would call the attention of our readers to the aduertisement of Mr. Z. J. King, dealer in foreign and do mestic liquors. He has just received a full supply of pure aud fresh moun tain whiskeys, which ho sells at prices to suit the times. We learn that our energetic young townsman, Mr. Albert E. Glover, has gone to Augusta, Go., as agent for the Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Ma chine Company. We wish our young friend every success his enterprising spirit may demand. We heard of a young man the other day buying a melon for five cents and paying a bay ton conts for carry ing it home far him,. We need re form right along here. If you are ashamed to carry your melon home after buying it, give it away. Two of onr young friends left town under very suspicious circumstances last Monday morning. When a fel low viBits his old home, taking his ??best friend" along, it looks as if something is going to happen. We feel assured, however, that friend Dabble wm seo friend Thompson through. A party ?f young men left town on Monday last to spend ? few days in ?fishing, frolic and fun. Tboy camped uear Shilling's Bcidgerund bad a roy al time, catching many of the finny tribe, and, as proof of their success, brought a fine quantity home. Nothing Like It.?That Corn Whiskey at Jas. y~an Tassel's. One .can't help thinking that it never was sampled by the Revenues, when ho compares it with other brands otferod at the same price. We've tried it in a medicinal way, and pronounce it a No. 1. * A young man by the name of Bur nett, who has been in Alabama ever since he was one month old, is now on a visit to his relatives on Bull Swamp. Young Burnett is about eighteen years of age, and, of course, is a perfect stranger to his kindred and friends. Thk attention of our readers and of ail those who are interested in "Ye Ode Folkes Concerto" is called to the notice of Obadiah Primrose of a meeting at the Lecture Room of ihe Presbyterian Church on the 25th of the present month. A full attend ance is desired. Our medical friends of the county | will see notice in another column calling a meeting of the profession with a view of organizing a "County Medical Society." This is a matter of great interest and should meet the approbation of every man of the medical profession. We learn that a son of Mr. Hess Andrews, who disappeared when the Yankee army passed through Orange burg in 18G5, returned on Tuesday last in search of his father. As a stranger he stopped at the hotel and made inquiries which lead to the hap py meeting of fattier and son. We were presented last week witli a fine lot of choice vegetables by Mr. D. W. Crook, of Middle St. Mat thews, for which our grateful thanks are due. Such favors are especially appreciated at a time like this when gardens have failed almost every where and vegetables ,are exceeding ly rare. We learn that Mr. John English left town on Wednesday morning in search of remunerative employment. He is a line cleric, a most excellent book-keeper, and possesses other com mendable qualifications which will not be long in securing the work his industry demands. We wish for him abundant success. We direct the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Mr. W. F. Robinson in another column, and as the time for planting turnips and early spring vegetables is ap proaching, a call at his popular store will savo both time and money. Watches and clocks are also neatly repaired by him at reasonable rates. Duriko the past week Policeman Henry Washington arrested "Jesus Brown," a suspicious character whom he found prowling about town. Upon enquiry it wa9 ascertained that he had been driven out of Columbia by the Chief of Police, consequently Po liceman James Cannon was instruct ed to drive him out of Orangeburg. A difficulty and personal encounter occurred at Fifty-eight, South Caro lina Railroad, between Messrs. Pink Berry and - Elkius, the last a hrother-iu-law of Mr. Berry, in which both of them were wounded by knives. Mr. Beiry was barely convalescent from his wonnds when he was strick en down by typhoid fever and died last Friday night. We regret to learn that Lieut. L. II. Wannamaker has resigned bis commission of Third Lieutenant of the Edisto Rifles. His skill in drill and known public spirit will bo a serious loss to the command, but we trust the members will secure the ser vices of some one who ma}' fill his place creditable in performing the du ties of so important an ofllce. Orangerurg, S. C, July 22. Jlfcasrs. W. M. Sain & Go.: Dear Sirs?I take pleasure in in forming you that the Elevator put into my well by your Mr. Meroney gives entire satisfaction. It has im proved the taste and looks of my water very much. I can recommend : the Elevator to all needing a good water elevator. Theo. Koiin. In Salem, N. C, the blackberry crop shipped from that place during the present year amounted to the very respectable sum of 9800,000. Wby may not Qrnngeburg, where this berry grpvys as abundantly as anywhere else, do the same. A small t.radio that amounts to such a huge sum should not bo despised. All that is needed is a spirit of enter prise. We learn through our uubscribors of Sunny Plain .that the Democrat does not reach them ,\intU the Friday aftes date of publication. We,regret this inconvenience and would sug gest that the mail carrier leave St. Matthews after the arrival of the morniug train' from Charleston. This will enable them to receive tho paper the eveniug of the date of publica tion. The attention of our readers is In vited tothe advertisement of Mr. Si L. Morgan, in another column of this issue. If our citizens desire beef of tho best quality, and to have a good market in their midst, let them ob tain beef from Mr. Morgan and sup port his market. Such au enterprise cannot be maintained without a liber al support, and Mr. Morgan ought to get it. Tho Methodist Church, South, at this place will he closed on Suuday next in consequence of the pastor be ing called to another part of the Dis trict. On .next Wednesday and Thursday nights, however, Were will be preaching at the usual hour as in troductory services to the Third Quarterly Meeting which will begin by a business meeting on Friday evening. The following officers wore install ed at the last meeting of tho Lodge of Knights of Honor at this place: Henry Kohn, Dictator ; J. S. Albcr gotti, Vice-Dictator ; J. J. Street, As sistant Dictator ; Rev. O. A. Darby, Chaplain ; F. DcMars, Reporter ; C. R. Jones, Financial Reporter ; Theo. Kohn, Treasurer; R. H. Wiles, Sen tinel ; W. A. Edwards, Guardian ; H. G. Sheridan, Past Dictator. We had the pleasure of greeting and welcoming to our home Miss K. II. Van Lew, formerly an acceptable and successful teacher of our county, but now the principal of a nourishing school at Ellenton on the Port Royal Railroad. Miss Van Lew looks as well ns in the days of yoro and soeros as de votedly attached to her professed life business, teaching, as ever. Our best wishes accompany her through life. The engine of Mr. R. H. RUey near Jamison's Turnout, bursted on Saturday evening last, blew out the furnace, passed through the sido of the gin house, broke off the breast of tho gin, blow a negro man about fifty feet, scalding < him severely from the thighs to his feet, and another negro man was slightly injured by the acci dent. The engineer, Mr. John Rich ards, was stunned for a while but not seriously hurt. Messrs. D. J. ami A. P. Avinger return their sincere and grateful thanks to their old comrades and fel low survivors oi he Edisto Rifles for the kind hospitality so cordially ex tended to thorn on the 4th cf July. They will long cherish the memory of a meeting which brought them once more in contact with the familiar faces of companions with whom they strugglod . shoulder to shoulder through the hardships of limes that tried men's souls. The challenge to the Athletic Rase Hall Club of Aiken from the Orange was accepted and next Saturday ap poiuted as the day to play a mutch game, but it being inconvenient for the Oranges because of business rela tions they had the game postponed until some day next week. In an ticipation, therefore, of tho contest next week practice games will be played on to-day and Monday next. We predict a brilliant victory for our Oranges. We make the following corrections iii the roll of the Edisto Rifles pub lished on our llrst page : For A. Champey read A. R. Cham pey. For Charles Barley read Charles Bailey. For Henry Barley read Henry Bai ley. For Sultan Myers read Luther My ers. For Louis Shuttnight read Lewis Shultnight. For W. P. Law read W. P. Lar. We learn that our ontcrprizing townsman, Mr. J. P: Harley, is on goged in shipping shingles to Lewis ville. We taHo pleasure in, running this noto because our swampa and forests abound \t\ tho host of timber in suflicicnt quantities to supply the demands of every accessible point along tho lino of railroad and river, and our citizens owning this timber, might make a prpfltablo busi ness of it during this, dry season. Members of loafers' club can stick a pin here. Employment for you, gen tlemen. ? For Mayor. Editor Qrangeburg Democrat; As the timo for our town election is near, I deem it not improper to write you a short communication in regard to the candidate of the people for Mayor. All will readily admit that the chief executive officer of our town should be a man respected by both races of our citizens; one to| whom all may look for exact justice in the administration of public af fairs?. ' lie should be I man cf nerve and decision, not fearing to act when the public good demands action, and car ing nothing for ephemeral public opinion, when adverse to him, so long as he J-.iwius that ho is' right. Every community hns not such a man as this. Orangeburg is nioro fortunate than many others are, she baa a man who possesses every qualification for mak ing an efficient, acceptable and up right Mayor. Messrs. Editors, we have reference to the present incum bent, Hon. J. W. Moseley. We write this without having ever spoken to Mr. Moseley in regard to the Mayor alty of our town. Wo know that it is not in unison with his feelings to be the incumbent of any public office, but we hope that he will again do. as he often did in the past, sacrifice personal interests and pleasures for the public good, and serve us for at least another term in the capacity of Mayor. W. Wants to be a Martyr. Editor Orangeburg Democrat: It is not surprising that the indig nation of the people was so generally | aroused by the recent letter from Or angcburg to the Tribune ; but sonic think it would have been better to pass it without notice. TJie.ro arc] men who come here with the determi nation to be made martyrs of in some way. There are so many such at home, men of small calibre, that the chances of being mado notorious are few and far bctwnon. Hut this is a fruitful field. A pago or two of mis representation is gobbled up by the many enthusiasts there, and the quite I ordinary man becomes the Lillipution | giant at once. The citizens of Orangeburg cannot I do the author of that letter a greater' favor, or please him better than to) keep such matters before the public. If Grant or somo other Republican should be" elected President, there is j no doubt this man would fill some fat office. The poor nifirtyr of Orange burg. His evidently chosen position here now, puts one in mind of the old lady with life preserver on board the J steamer during a gale, "Do some one) blow me up 1 pray blow me up." B. As we predicted in our last issue, it has been a busy time with Mr. Kortjohn. Having received a large consignment of Notions, Dry Goods, Boots, Shoes, Huts, iOc, he threw them on the market at unprecedent ed prices, consequently large crowds were in attendance, and largo sums of money changed bauds as tho bet ting men say, but this is no game of chance. It is true this store receives most of the cash money spent in the town, but buyers receive the value therefrom two-fold. Strange must be the piece of humanity who visits this busy mart and goes away dissatisfied with goods, prices, proprietors or as sistants. Mr. K. has a full stock and receives doily new ndditions. It would bo impossible for us to predict what next will be offered at this place, when huge family bibles as [sold by traveling agents for twelve and flffeon dollars aro olfcred to you at 82.00, and long whnlcbono buggy whips at 40 cents, black cashmere at 80 cents, worth 75?but we will leave Dick and his prices till next issue.
