We have received a copy of the Premium List of the Sumter Park and Agricultural Association through the Secretary and Treas ' orer, Ufr. Chas. H. Mo?se. The "Broom Drill" on last Tuesday even ting was much enjoyed by all present, and ^ iUi : fnVerHeTtaisment resulted ?n a financial tuccess which reflects credit on all concerned, v . The fact that the lightning struck the Con ?^federate Monument in Columbia last week llppLbe irrefutable proof to some of our North ^trp friends(?) that it was wrong to erect such 33* monnmeat.

St. Joseph's Academy. ' -The closing exercises of St. Joseph's Acade my-took place last Thursday evening in the presence of a crowded house. The Hall was handsomely decorated with flowers. The programme which was elaborately and care ^ fully prepared, was carried out to the satis faction of. the appreciative audience. The two graduates were, Misses Alice Stancill and Maggie Hennagan, who delivered the Saluta tory and Valedictory, respectively, in a grace- ! fol and impressive manner. Rev. D.

Owing to the small amount ef Cotton com ' in? to market now, the Factory finds it diffi cult to procure insufficient quantity for the j ^regular supply.

We received last week from^a live Yankee ^ -pk^ure^representiog Guiteau's execution on the 30th instant. We decline respectfully to pay him five dollars for the cut. The wit nesses of the tragedy, from minister to re porter, are so miserable in appearance that, if a correct likeness, they all deserve hanging. Found Bead. On last Thursday afternoon the decaying remains of Mr. Morgan Sweeney were found on the eastern outskirts of town. A jury was empanneled and returned a verdict that death was-caused by apoplexy. He must have died some time before the body was found, as*it was very much decomposed. It was buried the same night at a late hour, in the Catholic burying-ground K. of H.

Except on the days of registration and as sessment things have been very quiet at Wedgefield, for some time. And even on the latter day, (that of assessment) there was no rush of the taxpayers sufficient to disturb the quiet work of the Auditor. When the people are invited to vote, or to make preparation to vote, the colored people come en masse and with a rush; but when they are invited .to pay taxes or to make preparation to do so. the colored people are conspicuously absent. It is surprising to see how much more eager the republican party is to rule this government than to support it. The Democratic Club has reorganized, elected delegates to the County Convention, a member of the Executive Committee, and ap pointed a special committee to look after the interests of their party in this section. So far as T have heard an expression of opinion, Col. J. H. Earle is the preference for the Senate, and Mr, Marion Sanders for Sheriff. CROPS. The crops in this section are very fine?bet ter, probably, than were ever known. The insects (bud-worms and lice) have in jured the stand slightly. So far, we have not suffered from the lack of rain, but we are suffering just now from an over-abundance. On yesterday afternoon there fell here the heaviest rain that the pres ent citizens have ever witnessed. Where the land was the least hilly or low the damage is considerable, both to the crops and the land. Labor has been plentiful ; hence the crops hare been well cultivated. RELIGIOUS. The ladies of the Methodist Church here will give an "Ice-Cream Festival" on the afternoon and evening of July 5th. The ob ject of it is to raise money to complete their ; church building. Tbc public are invited, and j a large attendance is desired. All who have any money, and who love ice-cream or Christianity are especially invited. H. SHILOH TJSTTSEBSTS. [From Our Correspondent."] SHILOH, S. C, June 20, 1882. Crops are very promising in this vicinity. The price of Spirits and Rosio does not please our enterpring "townsmen, Messrs. Smith &McGiIl?"rather low." Our town boasts of the birth of five boy babies within the space of three weeks. Three of tbe happy ''papas" are members of tbe Town Connc?l. On the 16th inst. the Shiloh Literary and Social Club enjoyed a fishing excursion to Woods' Mill. Only oue of the finny tribe lost its life, despite the persisted t(?) efforts^of various members of the club. The boating was superb. The inevitable "brother in black," by sun rise, was found wending bis way to the "reg istration" ground in this voting precinct, and as usual tried to monopolize things. Ye Registrar has a long and level head. Jacob Keels, Esq., residing near this place has the finest prospect for early sweet pota toes we have seen anywhere. Your Correspondent has enjoyed the first yield of "mutton" (early) corn that he has yet heard of in this section. Our townsman C. T. Player, Jr., is pro gressing in the erection of a new residence in place of the one recently destroyed by fire. He merits the assistance of the citizens in this effort. The Summer Business School for young men, to be conducted in this place July iTtti to Aug. 3ist, is becoming quite popular. Applications are steadily coming in. MAGAZINES, &c. The American Agriculturist for July is very full of valuable information for the farm er, gardener, and house-keeper, including much that will interest all others. The hum bug columns show up various swindling schemes, and tbe farm and garden notes sup ply much needed and timely information. Orange Judd Co., Publishers, New York. $1,50 per annum, 15 cents per number. EhricJis Fashion Quarterly for Summer is, out. This is full of interesting matter, bearing on tbe subject of dress and dress ma terial. The latest styles of goods and tbe pri ces are given with much valuable information as to bonnets, hats, fins, parasols, and every thing that adorns woman and makes her j happy. Then you will find poems, stories, and other literary matter which will please and instruct. Altogether, we think the Fashion Quarterly is a success. Its cost is only fifty cents a year, and if its publishers propose to give for that price four books of equal merit with the one before us, they quite j deserve the success we wish them. The maga sine is issued by Ehrich Bros., Eighth, j Avenue, NewJEtak^^^^^^ The other day a certain youDg lady in Rome, Ga., started out shopping. While putting on her hat she thought it felt rather heavy but not noticing anything, put it ou her head. On her return home she asked her sister to take off her hat, that she thought some thing was on it. Her sister took off 1er hat, and, while doing so, came ?ery near being bitten by a snake, rhc lady bad worn the snake around with her all the time, being of course mconscious of its presence. Friend Rogers, of the (Port Royal) Palmetto Post is trying to elevate the morals of news paper patrons in his region by the following paragraphs scattered through his local col umn : Time to Subscribe. The Lord loveth a cheerfui subscriber. Don't growl. Take a paper and keep post ed. A liberal subscriber always, gets : a good obituary notice. This is an inducement. There are a few mean men left. One ap appropriates an Oak Point subscriber's paper pretty regularly. If he'll send his name, we'll foward him a copy. ? 4-4?-. Money for a Rainy Day. "For six years my daughter was sick from kidney and other disorders. We had used up onr savings on doctors, when our dominie advised us to try Parker's Ginger Tonic. Four bottles effected a cure, and as a dollar's worth has kept c;ur family well over a year, we have been able to lay by money again for a rainy day."?A Poor Man's Wife. "A good crop of vegetables saves the cost of meat. So says tbe Palmetto Post. The Disgusting Charm. A delightful fragrance of freshly gathered flowers and spices is the distinguishing charm of Fioreston Cologne. It is a fact, so says one of our subscribers, that oats fed to a milch cow will cause her to go dry. How sad to see a child growing up with an emaciated appearance, sores covering the body, giving evidence of a Scrofulous ta!'- 1 the blood. This can all be eradica? ^ the use of a few bottles of S. S. ? V-wluch has never been known to fail to cure tbe worst case of Scrofula in any stage. It is guar anteed if directions are observed. Price, $1 00 and $1.75 per bottle. Dr. Moffett'sTeethina (Teething Powders,) will cure your child. For sale by all drug gists and country merchants. CANDIDATES. FOB TEE LEGISLATURE. Messrs. Editors: We fully endorse tbe nomination of Mr. J. A. MAYES, for the Legislature. He is the right man for tbe place, and if elected will reflect much honor upon the Country. June 27 MAYESVILLE." Messrs. Editors : To insure success in the coming Election it is necessary to present our very best men. Let only those of broad prac tical minds be brought to the front. As such we name Mb. ft. D. LEE, feeling confident be will receive tbe support of all PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRATS. June 27. CAPT: E. M. COOPER. Messrs. Editors: Among the many good men whose names will be offered to the public at the coming election, none will be more capable or worthy of the trust than the gen tleman whose name heads this card. June 20 MANY VOTERS. FOR JUDSE OF PROBATE? RETAIN COMPETENT MEN IN OFFICE. We respectfully nominate the present en cumbent, Col. T. t*. WALSH, for re-election as Judge of Probate.

D1GGS WILDER as a candidate for the of fice of School Commissioner of Sumter Coun ty at the ensuing election and oblige, MANY FRIENDS. FOR SHERIFF. The right man in the right place is Sheriff R. W. DURANT, who is hereby nominated for continuation in office In him we have a good and efficient oEScer. June 27. MANY VOTERS. Messrs. Editors : If there Is a tendency on the part of oar Democrats to lay aside old fogy notions in politics and an earnest desire to cast their votes for a man, not because he is a good, quiet and honorable citizen, but because he is the rig?itman for the place, then it is with patriotic pleasure that we nominate Mr. MARION SANDERS for Sheriff. Although Mr. Sanders has been a most zealous Demo erat, working with might and main in every campaign, in whatever direction, he could best serve Sumter County, and further tbe cause of the democracy, it is not for this rea son that he is now endorsed by tbe best and most influential citizens for Sheriff, but by reason of his qualifications and peculiar tact for the office. His exteusive acquaintance with the people and knowledge of the affairs of the county make him a candidate likely to be sustained by the entire Democratic Party. MANY VOTERS. TO PRINTERS.
