THE ATLANTA FAIR
-o
The Atlanta Cotton Exposition is etching
i rauch interest all over the United States, and
\ bids fair to be the most important occasion
; of the kind since the Centennial.
! The original design was that it should be
; an exposition of everything connected with
' the growth and manufacture of cutton-from
: the South especially, and also from all other
! cotton growing and manufacturing countries;
i but thc enterprise came into such great favor.
! that it expanded into a Grand Exposition, to
; which have been invited all other products,
. not only of the South, but of the whole coun- '
I try, including every product of the soil, all ;
i kinds of machinery, implements, manufac- j
; tures, &c.
j The people of the North are taking hold of,
; it in earnest, and as it is a Southern affair, it :
; is hoped that the people of the South will j
j use every effort to make a full display of !
? everything conoe. ted with our section,
i Our State Cora missioner of Agriculture, i
; Gob butler, has taken the matter in band? nd !
i will do ali in his power to have South Caro- ?
? lina properly represented. Ile desires exhibits j
; of everything, aud will classify them to the '
; best advantage.
The Exhibition will open on the 5th of ?
October and last until December 31st, andi
beides visitors from all parts of the Ui.itcd ;
States, there will no doubt be many from
other countrifS, who will be attracted by the ,:
array of products of the South.
We hope the people of Sumter County will
fully appreciate the importance of making a !
fine display, and will do all in their power ;
to have the old Game Cock County set out in ;
her l est colors.
The New York Herald, in referring to the '
Atlanta Exposition, says : ?

which in the end may make in the Southern '
country a New England, filling it with fur- '

foundations of busy industries which are now j
monopolized by other sections of the country. :

A Burlesque on Insanity.
Last Wedncsdav morning Guiteau affected
(
t
. 1
a little bit of insanity which attracted the . <
attention of one of the guards who happened j ?
to l?e passing his cell at the time. Mr. Mc- j j
Gill, the guard, went into the cell to see the '. J
performance well done. On entering, how- '
ever, he found Guiteau with knife in hand . <
ready to raise thc whoop and wage war. ; ,
Guiteau refusing to surrender the Knife, the '
guard drew his revolver, whereupon a lively [
and exciting scuffle followed, during which
Guiteau succeeded in wrenching the pis;ol ;
from the guard, and it is hard to say how . .
this miniature battle might have terminated, j \
if thc other guards, whose attention w< re at- ; \
tracted by the discharge of the pistol which \ i
went off during the struggle, had not come j J
to the timely rescue of their fellow guard and ; (
disarmed Guiteau. Thc question which per- j j
ples.es us is, where did Guiteau get thc knife . :

The Cotton Crop, Bad Bagging; &e. |
I learn there has been some "sheyery" j
bagging for baling cotton shipped South. I j
do not believe any of our merchants would j
fell it if they knew it, but 1 advise the plan- i
ters to look out for it. Cotton covered with it .
will be rejected by the buyer, and thrown,
back on the seller, at a heavy loss : in fact, ?
no bale of colton covered with it is considered j
merchantable. i
It is also being discussed, if cotton will bc !
received in second-hand bagging without a ?
deduction. I say, where it is good, and not j
damaged, there should be nothing taken off. i
Let the bales be well bound so as to make !
thc package neat and nice, and no deduction j
will bc made.
I say to the planters that four hundred j
pounds is a bale of cotton, and if they make j
them less a deduction is made from a quarter j
to a whole cent. They almost get mad at the I
buyers for this, but you think there must be j
some number of pounds for abale, and alli
should conform to the rule. You pay for just j
as much bagging and ties on a four hundred !
pound bale as yon do on a five hundred pound ;
-twenty-six pounds on each-and you pay ?
the same freight on one as the other ; and you j
can see at once the difference it makes to the ;
shipper, !
The habit of sweeping down liot-rooms and :
putting the refused stuff i o the bales, is wrong, j
and should not be for one time permitted, ?
as the law is very severe on this point.
And in my experience with cotton for the !
past three years, as a buyer, I found more j
water-packs and false-packs last year than j
any year before. There is no objection to j
mixed packs, if sold as such, or plated bales: i
and in many cases the ginners not for one ?
moment imagine they are doing wrong to i
put jxood cotton on the outside of the bale and ?
mean cotton on the inside. All right; but j
let the owner know aboutit before you de-j
liver it to him, and let him make it known i
when he sells it, and there will be no room !
for deductions and hard feelings.
Judging from the various reports through- j
out the United Stales, of the colton crop, I j
think wilh the increase in acreage that we will j
have ns big a crop as last year. But the de- j
mand is increasing rapid ly .every year. I ex- !
peet to se? fair prices all this year out. 1 be- ?
lieve the crop will average teu cents and I j
hope the planters will bc able to realize this, ;
and even more than this, for their crop. j
T. B. FERGUSON, j (
We heartily concurr in all that the above j |
gentleman has said, with the exception of his ! ?
reference ia the last paragraph, to the size of j
the cotton crop this fall, lt will be impos- j
sible for tiie cotton weed in thc South to turn |
out as much as it did last year. If only one j .
or two Stales had suffered for rain, the num- [
ber of bales might have been made up by the j (
increased acreage, but everywhere over the ; ,
South, #and eveu in Texas, the great cotton j
State, the lauds have been parched by the j j
Irought, and ihe cry of f diing crops is not :
sectional, but almost universal as far as the ; ?
Cotton States are concerned. The crop will j ^
ac smaller and the price should be nigher. r ^

THE FENCE QUESTION.
Messrs. Editors: The short crop of cotioD,
and the shorter crop of corn, make it very im?
portant that our farmers should put down
oats early this fall into every acre of land
they can make available for this purpose.
By reason of the inability of farmers to keep
up their fencing, and the necessary contrac?
tion of fields, which year after year has been
made, what is now under fence is not more
than what is necessary for thc crop of corn
and cotton, while outside of the fence of j
almost every farm lie many acres which have j
been thrown out. These "old fields,'i as they j
are called can be easily "brushed off," j
plouged up and sowed down in oats. But j
the oats planted in these ::old fields" will not j
yield much next June, if the comparatively !
few cattle left in the County are to have the j
privilege of grazing through the winter on j
the oats, mistaking it, perhaps, for Spring ?
broom-sedge after a late '"'burning over.';
Now il is to this point 1 write, thinking i
that our fanners should know how matters!
staod, and will stand on 15th October, in ;
relation to the fence law. I state facts. The I
County Commissioners have let out to con-i
tractors the fence from the Kershaw hoedown i
Lynch's Creek (River) to thc Clarendon line, j
thence along the Southern lines of Shiloh and !
Mayesville Townships, to Mack River. This ?
will be completed by 15th October next. ?
The. Commissioners assessed a tax of 2^ mills, j
as-being more than was estimated would be I
sufficient to build the Lynches Creek and
Clarendon lines; the estimate having been i
ma'?e by experienced, practical farmers. But !
owing to the prices asked, the funds will not j
build farther than as stated above, to Black i
River. It will be necessary under amend- |
ment of the Act at the next Session, to com- j
plete promptly in January the balance of the I
Clarendon line, (if the fence is to run along i
this line,) and also those of Waterce River!
and Kershaw. This however, only in the
event that the "Stock Law" does not become,
at next Session, a "State law," commensurate |
with State lines instead of County lines; j
which I am greatly inclined to believe will be j
the case.
Be this, however, as it may, the Sumter i
Stock Law, although it went legally, it did i
not go virtually into operation last Winter j
by reason of the apparent intent, notwith-j
standing the wording of the Act. But on '
the 15th October next, thc Act will be legally, j
virtually, intentionally and practically io j
effect. Theo woe to the skin and bones of j
any old cow that goes rummaging around, ?
mistaking rust-proof oats for Spring broom- \
sedge.
That the fence has not been completed will
not be an available pica or answer for any
farmer of Sumter County, who shall allow his
stock to make the mistake alluded to. It
may avail Clarendon farmers on thelinefrom j
Black to Santec River; but their neighbors!
on this side of that line, to wit: in Concord, !
Privateer and Manchester Townships don't j
want the law and will not avail themselves!
of its benefits ; therefore both sides will be!
upon equal footing, and no damage done to ;
si th er. or rather, each side will be continually i
damaging the other, and he will suffer most j
lamage who is least able to stand it. The i
Kershaw liners will bc in the same condition j
is the Clarendouians, but without it being j
their fault. Let them quietly bear the evil a j
;hort time, and my word for it, the matter !
will be rectified in December, either by an ;
imendment of the Sumter Act, or what will !
je still better, a general State law.
All our farmers should, therefore, as soon j
is they have gathered their short cottons, go i
0 work to "brush off" and break up old !
ields instead of repairing fencing. Such nt j
east, is the advice of one who may be thought ?

Extract from a Letter.
"The Queen's Delight" is beginning to
awake;; the attention of our physicians. Its
remarkable curative powers are seen in its
wonderful effect upon disease. As a blood
purifier there is no medicine like it known to
the profession. A gentleman told me that his
son had been taking the Queen's Delight, and
is more beneiited by it than by any ethe?
medicine. He wants a dozen bottles."
"Dr. E. Heinitsh :-Your medicine fa*
Chills and Fever is a sure remedy. I have
been suffering for several months past, and
one bottle ofyour ChiJl and Fever Cure has
entirelv cured the disease. I have not had a
chill since, and I regard my health restored."
Yours, Respectfully, M. D. WADE.
"I have used two bottles of 'Queen's De?
light' and one bos pills. The pain ia my
back and side have left me ; my liver is aetiog
well : my appetite better and my headache
gone! I feel like a young man \ I shalt use
your valuable medicine as long as I co&tvnue
to improve."
Yours, Respectfully, J. h. B.
"Mr. E. Heinitsh-Dear Sir :-Mrs. Rials
ivas suffering with Liver Complaint and pains
in the side and heart, nervousness, could not
sleep, bad appetite, and general bad health.
[ procured one bottle ofyour 'Queen's Delight'
ind Blood Pille. I regard her case as cured.
3he is looking as well as she ever did. Your
'Queen's Delight' is a blessing to tbe afflicted.
I give this certificate cheerfully."
