OUR OFFICE.
The Office of the Watchman and
Southron has beeD permanently estab
lished at the old Stand of the True
Southron, opposite the Court House,
where we shall be pleased to see our
patrons and the public generally.
Town Taxes are due and payable Novem
ber 1st, instant.
Rer. Robt. M. Hnggios of Spring Hill, aged
?9 years, died on October 27, after a sickness
or three weeks.
Mr. Robert McCutcheu of Bisbopville had
two finger9 cut off by a gin, on Tuesday last.
Bis head was also badly hurt.
Joe Smith, colored, had his hand badly
mangled by a gin, on Monday last, at Wedge
field.
Mr. Ashur Furstenburg removed to Man
ning on Thursday last, to establish a branch
boose of Furstenburg*3 Emporium. He has
oar best wishes for success.
Don't forget to pay your Town taies.
Mr. R W. Durant has been recommended
by the Legislative delegation to fill the vacan
cy occasioned by the death of Sheriff Wilder,
A better recommendation could not bave been
made.
Henry Polk, colored, attempted to steal the
watch of Mr. Jerry Jackson, of Providence,
on Tuesday night last, by snatching it from
bis band. He was captured, however,
cammitted to jail and the watch returned.
We acknowledge the receipt of a plate of
beautiful butter from the Jersey Cow which
took the premium at our fair last week, also
? bottle of delicious wine, and frnit cake of a j
richness which would satisfy the desire of the j
roost fastidious gastronomist. They were
sent by Mrs. Capt. Delgar to whom we return
.many thanks.
Miss Marie Seabrook, of Charleston, who
graced our social circle and made the Sum
cier delightfully pleasant for us, returned
home last Friday night. Her many friends
and admirers here will await her return with
feverish impatience.
Mr. Thos. Richardson has laid upon our
table the portion of a stalk of cotton about
tea inches long arouod which are clustered
twenty well developed bolls. This is from
tbe field which produced the premium bale
at our recent Fair.
The hop given to L*rof. Agostici on Tues
day evening last was quite a success. Tbe
L Professor departed on Friday, leaving behind
number of frieuds. During his stay in
Sumter, by his gentlemanly bearing and
pleasing manners, ce ?roc his way into the
friendship of many of our citizens who. if it
?vere in their power, would heartily co airhead
him to any eoxamuaitv he may chance to
visit in the future.
Sam Hampton, under tbe influence of what
KunkePs man calls "bad stagger juice," im
agined himself, last Friday night, a Massa
chusetts soldier in Richmond. His illusion
was rapidly dissipated, however, oy a blow
of a well directed brick-bat from tbe hand o?
-a sable damsel to whom his d?monstrations of
affection were strikingly pointed.
Mr. C. H. Kershaw. the traveling agent of
Wm. M. Bird <fc Co., wholesale dealers in
?ils, pamts, leads, etc., of Cbarieetou, is in
Sumter, and he will be pleased to Eli all
orders pertaining to iis Iiae. Mr. ?er.?haw
willalso visit the different points su this and
adjoining counties in a few days and -call on
his customers. His house bas the reputation of
always keepiag ti;e purest, and -cheapest oils
and paints, leads, etc, and our readers-desir
ing anything in their line, had better call on
Mr. Kecshaw while he is on bis lour, and &ave
their orders .filled.
We are pleased to aaiHsen-cethat our fellow
townsmaa, and the former Editor of tbe True
Southron, W. <i. Kenoedy, Esq., ?as in press
a volume of Poems, which will soon be issued
fcy tbe old house of E. Claxton k Co., of Phil
adelphia. We trast rfc*t tie peopte of the
home Counties of Sumter and Clarendon will j!
give bim a good send off, in the sale of his j
Book, and make the enterprise a paying one. j
Many poems in this collection have never been
published, while some of them have appeared
in the columns of different papers. Mr. Ken
nedy is willing for his book to stand or fall
upon its merits.

how they are cured, whether from a rational i
view of the disease or by the rules defined for |
the guidance of the profession, so Ioog as the j
cure is certain and expeditious. To a suffer- (
ing man the question on the relative merits of t
quinine or calomel is uninteresting. The |
{"acuity may wrangle and discu3S their vari- -
ous theories, but Dr. Hollo way's treatment i
dispels doubt ere the disciples of Esculapius j
have finished the first stage. Holloway's Pills j
are the only remedies which effect a speedy j
and radical cure without danger of a relapse, i

THE COUNTY FAIS.
-o
In some classes of exhibits the Sumter Fai
of 1S81 surpassed that of 1880. The display
of household productions, Breads, Cakes,
Preserves, Pickles, &c, and of the Needle an
? Fancy Work was much larger and better than
I in 1880. The exhibition of Cotton, Hay, and
j vegetables was also larger, but the Cattle and
j Poultry were not equal to last year. We
would state that although the total number
! of entries was twenty per cent, larger than in
1880, the exhibitors were still confined to a
limited number.
If the people of the County generally, would
take anything like the interest which is now
taken by a few persons, our Fair would rival
any County Fair in the State.
We understand that the Directors are not
at all discouraged, but have determined to
make the next Fair a brilliant success.
There were many articles exhibited which
we would be glad to notice specially, but
hare not the space.
The list of Premiums awarded will be found
in this issue.
m- - ?
Pay Your Taxes.
The following circular has been issued by
comptroller-General Bratton, epproved by
Gov. Hagood :
' Simple taxes paid when due meet all the
demands o? vhe State upon the people. It is
not only the duty of the people, but their
interest, especially in this disastrous year, to
pay promptly and avoid penalties.
"From reports received at this office, it
seems neccessary, in order to afford all ample
opportunity to escape additional burdens, to
exercise the limitad discretion allowed by law
in the premises.
"You are authorized to postpone the en
forcement of penalties, and collect simple
taxes until the tenth day of November next.
After that date penalties attach and must
be collected."
Edgefleld in Flames.
Edgsfielo, October 30.?Edgefield is in
ashes. The business part of the town has been
totally destroyed. Only three small stores be
ing left. There are not provisions enough in
the town to feed it forty-eight hours. The new
paper, the Chronicle, was burned out. The
Advertiser's building and property are safe. j
The fire broke out just before dawn in the j
large livery stable of the Tillman Hotel. The
merchants and business men are terrible
losers. The fire desolated everything from
the Tillman Hotel to the Saluda House. The
loss of property is immense. The stocks of
goods generally were not insured.
The fire is supposed to be incendiary. Peo
ple from the country are thronging in, and the
scene is one of wild confusion and awful sad
ness. The loss is estimated at more than
$100.000. Insurance about $34,000.
The Land League Said To Be
Weakening.
Cork, October 2*1.?The process of the dis
solution of the Land League in the south of
Ireland proceeds steadily and peacefully.
The branches quietly submit to the prohibi
tion of the meetings. The Government, to
justify their course in re-arrresting Mr. John
HefFeruan, one of the most violent cf the
Leaguers in Cork, have published an appeal
which he made for clemency after his first ar
rest. The appeal concludes : "I will guar?
aatee to take no further part in public mat
ters relative to land reform, knowing, as I
do, that the Land bill is perfect." Mr. Hcf
fernan, since his release, denied that he sign
ed any conditions, and resumed agitation.

The TLornwell Oiphanags
From the sixth annual report of the Thorn
well Orphanage, located in Clinton, S. C,
it will appear that there have been thirty or
phans under it care, three having been dis
missed and six received, during the year.
These have been educated, clothed, boarded,
trained in rarious arts, domestic and other
wise, and every possible expense met at an
aTerage cost of S6S.75 each. For this sum,
they have received a first rate English educa
tion, and have been physically and personal
ly cured for, for the entire year of twelve
months.
During the year, Faith Cottage forthe boys
has been erected at a total cost of $1500. As
soon as the Orphans' Seminary, a building
for School and Chapel purposes, is erected,
the number of inmates can be materially in
creased.
Remember that this institution is supported
by voluntary gifts. What yon give goes di
rectly to the support of the orphans, and not
to pay any officers. Thirteen counties of this
state, fire States, and five different denomina
tion (of parents) are represented among our
children.
Boxes-of clothing, provisions of any kind
and of course, eaoney, would be very accepta
ble, jnst now. Send to,
Rei-. WM? P. JACOBS, Clinton,S. ?.

Peterson^s Magazine,
For December, more than maintains its un
rivalled character. There -are two beautiful
steel -eagravings; ooe of them a lovely title
page, representing so*ae children, singing a
Christian hymn ; bes?des a superb steel fash- j ,
ion-plate, the latter exquisitely colored. In'
addition, there is a magnificent Stripe for a
Chair, in cross-stitch embroidery, printed in
colors, which, at retail, would cost fifty cents':
this is presented to the subsreribers of "Peter
son" as a Christmas gift. A charming story,
"My Cousin Maud," is as charmingly illus- i
trated. The number contains a Supplement,1
with a full-size dress-pattern, alone worth
more than the price of the number. Then
there are some fifty other engravings : of
fashions, work-taMe patterns, etc., etc. The
price of the Magazine is but Two Dollars a
year. To clubs, it is astonishingly low, viz :
six copies for nine dollars, with an extra copy
to the person getting up the club ; or seven
copies for ten dollars and a-half, with both an
extra copy and a large-size premium en
graving, "Hush, Don't Wake Them," or a)
Phojogcapb Album, gilt, to the person get- j
ting up the club. Subscribe to no magazine j
till you have seen a copy of this. Specimens j
ire seot, gratis, to persons wishing to get up ;

Increased prostration and sinking chill*. At this time I began the use of yoar Inox Tonic, from which I re
alized almost immediate and wonderful results. The old encrer returned and I fcind that my natural force
was not permanentlr abated. I have ased three bottles of the Tonic. 8 in ce using it I have done twice the la

! These works were established mi 1347 by
! Messrs. Geo. Sinclair and James Anderson and
! purchased by me in the year LSofi. and from
I that time till no?v carried on successfully by
myself. My friends and customers will bear
I witness of the largo and stupendous jobs exc
I cuted by me. It was at my wurks where the
! largest and almost only job of its class ever ex
cc'ited in this city was done, viz:: ihc making
of the pipes for the City Water Works in the
venr iS5S. In the branch of
BELL FOUNDING,
I can say that I have made the largest bell?
ever cast in th?* State, such as the boll for the
City Hall in Culumbia.
My stock of patterns for
ARCHITECTURAL WORK,
COLUMNS FOR STORE FRONTS,
is large and various, and in RAILINGS FOR
BALCON-ES. GARDENS AND CEMETE
RIES I have the largest variety and most mod
ern patterns; m:>ny of these are patented and
I have purchased the right for this State.
In the machine line I can furnish my pat
rons with
Steam Engines and Boilers
of any size and description. Mv
CIRCULAR SAW MILLS
have carried off the pMze at every State Fair
held in this city, and in their construction I
have taken pains to combine Simplicity with
the most useful modern improvements, and mav
flaltcr myself that my CIRCULAR SAW
MILLS find favor with every sawyer who un
derstands his business.
The many onlers I am steadily receiving for
Sugar Cane Mills,
provo that me public appreciate the mills vi my
make, and so it is with my
