Schwerin, Moses and Ryttenberg haTe asked us to correct the impression going around as to the non-currency of silver mon? ey with holes in it. They say they will take it at par, and, w^e modestly add, it is also taken for subscription to the Watchman and Southron. . A few days ago, one of our Sumter butch? ers, while dressing a beef in the neighborhood of Scape O'er Swamp, was astonished at the quantity of fat on the inside, tut when the stomach was opened, the mystery was ex? plained by the finding of eighteen iron nails varying in size from 3 to 8 penny. Our farm? ers should make a note of this, as cow feed will be scarce the coming year. One of our editorial fraternity has been taking a round through the ceuntry, but not upon newspaper business. At Mayesville he spent a pleasant night with Mr. Ball, and had our School Commissioner fer a bed-fel? low. From thence he passed on into the Scarborough neighborhood, and passed a night under the roof of Mr. Alfred Scarbor- j C ough who is now in his 83d year of age. Age sits with grace upon the brow, and his gray hairs are a crown of glory. For many years he has been the patriarch in his neighborhood, and has Ifved to see his children honored and respected for their worth. Mr. Edmund Scarborough, be was sorry to Snd confined to his bed, and suffering from a chronic dis? ease. In the Bishopvi?le neighborhood, he shook the hands of the Jameses, Stuckeys and Wilsons, and on his way home passed a night under the roof of John Cuttino at Manville, who ?3 attending to the business of our townsman, B. J. Barnett. The crop prospect he found to be poor indeed, and in some cases the farmers have already consumed their crop of corn. Painful. We are sorry to learn that the eldest son of jour former townsman, Mr. J. D. Wilder came near loosing a part of his foot in the early parto?"last week. It seems that two boys were playing with a hatchet, and as the elder laid it down, the younger took it up, and by a misdirected blow brought it down upon the foot of the other, almost dissevering thc great toe, and the second toe, disjointing the third, and cutting the others to the bone. Rather Suspicious. We are authoritatively informed that a few mornings ago, just before daylight a wagon j c' was seen full of seed cotton in lags, driven ! ? in the back yard of a certain colored man of | n this place. Said wagon., we are further in? formed, is the property of this colored man, and that it makes regular trips in the coan- j ~m try for seed cotton. As this sort of cotton business looks a little fishy, we publish this piece of information for the benefit of our j farmers, in order that if it conflicts with their j T interests, a stop might be put to it. There is j a law against buying and selling seed cotton j o after dark and whenever this can be estab- j C lisbed on any one it should be enforced to the 1 ii utmost.

A farmer planted twelve pease, and har? vested more than a peck. The vines he cut down for his cow. 3. It is amusing to behold a stripling of sixteen summers twitching the furze upon his lip as if they were already docible. 4. Eastern tourists are harrassed by drago? men who follow the caravans. 5. You should have seen how contemptibly I looked at him when he pretended, though an arrant stranger, to be conversant with my whole history. He said myself aud sister were both alike, and as for the ballaoceof the family -! Goodness ! his breath was fetid. I hope he may die of the measles. 6. Have you ever read Byron's Giaour? I think I would attempt to decipher it if it were written in Hindoostanee. 7. He laid upon bis bed and died, saying all the time that rest was a preventative of dis? ease. 8. In our office we have a type called Bur geois, and near the Burgeois case a tallow faced Burgeois is sitting constantly whose presence annoys us. 9.

ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE FUNERAL. i Guitteau to be Tried in New Jersey. J -o WASHINGTON, September 20, 1931. The President died last night at twenty-five minutes of ll o'clock. When the report -was received from Franklyn Cottage, scarcely any one believed it, as nothing had been received before, which would lead to the belief tb it death would beso sudden. Some hours of more positive notice than even that of this morning had been expected. From best infor? mation, however it is believed that the Presi? dent's family had been fully warned. Every member who was in the Cottage at the time, was present fully- ten minntej before death came. Al! sources of information were quickly cut off, and .the few who knew the details were not in a condition to give the informa? tion at the moment, and access to them was afterwa d quickly and peremptorily shut off. The first announcement of the death of the President was made by Mr. Warren Young, ofElberon. This announcement was follow? ed in very few moments by a rumor that the President was sinking rapidly. Death bad already taken place. When the rumor of new trouble was first heard, his condition had been such that the Cottage trad been closed, and most of the Newspaper men bad gone back to the West End. Some of them were already in bed with the expectation of a bad day for thc President to-morrow, and to begin their duties early in the morning. Even Dr. Hamilton was of the opinion that death was not imminent. He was not within call, and was not present when death occurred. Newspaper men who were present, started to get details only to find that a line of guard had been exfended to a considerable distance from the Cottage and that the line could not be approached or passed. Captain Ingalls, in command, bad received orders that all passes issued up to that hour bad been de? clared void, and of no force. Mr. Jones of Elberon was standing on Cot? tage steps when the news first got beyond the sick-room, and heard a conversation between persons of the outer household. He said that when death was found near at hand, the famih- ?vere summoned, and knew of the approaching crisis in time to sec the President while he was still conscious, or apparently so, althoogh it was not know that he had spoken or recognized any one. Mrs. Garfield, Miss Mollie Garfield, Col. Rockwell, Gen. Swails, and Drs. Bliss and Agnew were present during the eutirc time ; but none of them left the bouse immediately afterwards, and the only one permitted to enter was Dr. Hamilton It has been understood for a long time that it has been Mrs. Garfield's wishes that ?facri? sis finally came, the family should have all possible privacy, and information to the pub? lic should not extend to details, but should be considered as private and sacred. Arrangements for the funeral have been made entireiy to meet the wishes of Mrs. Gar? field, and of course changes in thc arrange? ments may yet be made. The arrangement \ officiai]y announced by Attorney-General j MacVeigh are as follows: Wednesday morning a special train will leave for Washington aud will cany the re? mains to the Capital, and the body will lie n state under the dome of the Capital on Thursday and Friday, and Friday evening :he remains will be taken by special train to Cleveland when they will lie in state during Sunday. The funeral services will take place JTI Monday und the remains will be eaterred In Lake View Cemetery, in accordance with the often-expressed wishes of the President ivhen alive. General Arthur was sworn in r.3 President it his home in New York,, at 2.15 o'clock, this morning. He will proceed, to-day, ??ther to Long Branch or Washington. Guiteau will probably be tried in New Jer? sey. He is still in the District Jail here. As pet no attempts have been made to do him riolence. The Country is prostrated with grief, and Washington is draped in moarning. It is rumored that Cooper, the negro who ?bot Monday Morgan in Florence last week was captured at Manning yesterday after? noon, and is now in custody to be identified.
