Everybody who goes to the Oyster Supper I
to-night should ask to see the picture of York- j
town.
The congregation and friends of the Mayes- |
Tille Baptist Church give a supper to-night, j
We wish them much success and plenty of j
a?n?y. j
Our school is booming, so we bear; It j
needs another room and more seats and desks,

the deficiency*

brethren and go to the oyster supper after- ?

?as had ea opportunity,* ere this of recom- I
mehdi?g some patriotic individual for the j
Office of Sheriff. Several candidates are ia !

in too late for this issue.
The School Commissioner leaves to-night
for Yorktown, and will be absent about ten

It is aa encouraging feature of the progress
Of the South that its cotton manufacturing in- j '
terests are steadily increasing. In 1875-76 i5
only 145,009 bales were manufactured ia J j
Southern cotton mills, while during the past j s
year"205,000bales weremanufactured-again j
?f 60,000, or over 40-per ceat. Kew mills are ! '
now being put np in the South that promise a j ,
much larger increase ia a very short time, j (

S. JJ. I. Concert and Heading. ? ?
Our commuaiaty was really surprised at : \
the talent displayed by the improvised troupe jt
in the eatertaioment on last Wednesday j *
night, aod we veatore tbe statement that all
present were fully satisfied with the perform
aaces. Tbe Hall was comfortably fell, and
doubtless those wbo occupied the stage gath- j g
ered inspiratioa from the good audieoce.
Good taste was shown iu the choice of mo?- j r
sic, both vocal and instrumeatal. Tbe pieces i
were generali}' familiar to all, and consequent- I
ly were more appreciable to the audience. ?
Each performer acted his or her part well,
and we do not kaow that we have any reason j
for special preference of one above another, j
In some cases, certain pieces were more st rik- \
iog, others more pathetic, others yet more !
mirth-provoking. Some of the men were !
handsomer tbaa others and ditto of the ladies, j
But all this was oaly a matter of course, and :
such variety is always spicy. We returned !
home feeling that there were other pieces we I
could have enjoyed, and we accepted this !
as an unexpressed compliment to the perform
ers, as if we had said we wished for more of ! i
the same kind. j I
The criticism we passed inwardly wa3 ad- j
verse i a deed, but only to the audience. We j
are thinking of instituting a pbrenological ex- j
amination upon the beads of some persons to
ascertain the following facts : First, why can j
they not keep their seats for an hour or so
during an entertainment so full of interest?
Second, If they must go out and come iu,
why do they use their heels upon the floor so j
boisterously and so much to tbe annoyance \
of others? We think they should all learn j
the heel and toe polka-the heel to bs used j
when they are maki uga fuss for their ow a ,
amusement, and the toe when, they cnttr a j j
crowded hall where others may be disturted j
by their noise. If not violently prohibited j
we desire to make tbe statement for the pub- j
Mc good that heavy stamping on the floor ou ?J
such occasions is a sign of bad breeding and ;
worse raising. The young man who attracts j
notice to himself in this way is sure to suffer !
in the estimation of others, no matier how
much he thinks of himself.
But aside from this philosophy, we desire
to extend our hand of congratulation to th? T
ladies aad gentlemen who enabled us to pass *
a couple of hours so pleasautly, and we here-;
b/ move tbat they do so again. k i
Josiah M. Wilder.
Not often is a community so much stirred
j by th? death of a single individual ns ours
j has been by the death of Mr. Josiah M. Wil?
der. We who survive bim feel that we can
pay this tribute to.hi's memory without any
mental reserve and without contradicting thc
verdict of the people concerning him.
Mr. Wilder was born in our community
about forty-seven years ago, and from that
to the present has lived in our midst, with
the exception of a year or two. Ile had won
to himself many firm and lasting friends who
wept over his bier with unfeigned regret. As
a companion he was genial to a fault, and in
social converse had few equals, His power of
conveying to others the impressions made up?
on his own mind was remarkable, and it
had come to pass that no social gathering
of gentlemen was felt to be complete without
bim.
His kindness of heart was his crowning
trait of character. It was life's luxury to do
kindness to others, and few who survive him
will ever arise against his memory to charge
him with a lack of chanty. This trait, alone,
with his genial and cheerful nature, easily
won for him a place in the hearts of his com?
panions, and hence do so many profoundly
regret his decease.
In the fall of 1S80, he was elected by thc
voice of the people to ?11 the office of Sheriff
for Sumter County. This place he occupied
at the time of his death, having, in all things,
given satisfaction to his countrymen.
His death was sudden and unexpected. He
spent last Wednesday in Columbia, in attend?
ing to certain business devolving upon him,
and at night returned to Sumter. About
eleven o'clock be retired to rest. His wife,
in a few moments, heard him breathing hard,
and. going to his bedside, realized that he
was dying; and before any one could be call?
ed in he was gone.
He was cut down thus in the prime of life,
and in the full exercise of all the powers of |
manhood. And here we utter our voice oft
sympathy. As was truly said at his funeral, J
we shall miss bim-miss his genial presence j
and the warm clasp of his hand, while nu ni- |
hers who moved with him in the circle of life j
will feel that his death has left a great blank. !
A Double Deal and a Big Haul.
Last Saturday night some unknown par- j
ties committed the most daring robbery that ?
bas been perpetrated for years in Sumter. They j
first went to the premises of Mr. C. M. Hurst, j
and took his horse out of the stable. It is ;
supposed thal a mule aDd wagon, each be- '
longing to other parties, were obtained in
like manner, after which the negroes pro- !
ceded some distance below Che Depot to where j
tire freight cars were standitsg, which ?b?t j
even-?ng bad been shifted to a side track, and ;
broke open the cars containing some seven or j
eight hundred dollars \vorth of groceries and |
dry goods, tthich they made awa}r with, j
without leaving the slightest clue of where j
aud how they were disposed of. Yesterday j
three negroes were arrested c-n suspicion, and j
lodged in the Guard House, but for want of
sufficient evidence to impUcat? them, they ?
were released last night. Up to this morning j
no further information has been obtained.

t:I was troubled for many years with Kid?
ney Complaint, Gravel, ?fcc ; ruy blood became
thin: I was dull and anactive; could hardly
crawl about ; was an old worn out man all
over: could get nothing to help me, until I
got Hop Bitters, and now I am a boy again.
My blood and kidneys are all right, and I am
as fictive as a man of 30, although I am 72,

What the Director Said.
A Boston reporter, while in the office of the j
New York and Boston Dispatch Express Cum
pany, had a eonve sation with Mr. B. F.
Larabee, one of the-directors of the company,
who gave the following personal experience :
"A little over a year ago I was taken sick.
1 did not know what the trouble was, but I
continued to grow worse, and my complaint
baffled the skill of my doctors. At last my ?
symptoms developed into that terribie com- j
plaint, Bright's Disease,, which has been pro- "
iou need incurable by all physicians. My
sufferings st that ?imo were unspeakable. I
eras bloated from head to foot : my heart T
rained me; my pulse was irregular, andi
vas unable to breathe except in short, con?
vulsive gasps. While suffering thus I learned
)! Warners Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, and
ihnough ? bad teen given up to die by the
prominent physicians of Boston, and they had
old my friends I could not live a week, I re?
lived to try this remedy as a last resort. I
tra rejoiced to say ii has effected a perfect *
:u.-e in my case, and with many of ray friends, ? j
vho have been afflicted with kidney troubles, { y
ither of tong standing or in theiracute form?, ; i
ind who, under ruy advice, have uced this j ^
nost wonderful remedy." u!

myself; My friends and customers will bear
witness of the hirge and stupendous jobs ev?

largest and almost only job of its class ever ex?
ecuted in this city was-done, viz:. the making
of me pipos for the ?fty Water Works in tb?
rear 1S5S. In tho-branch of *

bare t;ikeD pains to combine simplicity with"
the most useful modern improvements, and may
flatter m-yseff that my CIRCULAR SAW
MILLS Snd favor with every sawyer who UB
derstands his business.
The many order's X am'steadily recsrViog for
