Mr. Peter London, who bas been living at Brpgdon's Still lost a son aged five years, on Friday, and a daughter aged three years, on Saturday. They were both buried in the same ~^Kr? or.

For instance wheo a fellow wants to get a notice before the public without paying for It, how easy and nice it is to give said notice to an innocent editor asa piece of news, ?ad thus dead-head the natter through. Our venerable townsman, Mr. John Lynch, on seeiog some one drinking from bis bat at the parap in front of our office, gave vent to sundry derogatory expressions, and concluded by saying he was going to present this miser? able town with twenty-five dollars to buy a dipper which would last a hundred years. A serrant girl in the employ of Mr. N. G. Gateen was seriously burned on Friday evening by the explosion of a kerosene oil can. Carelessness, as usual, was the cause, and though probably not fatally injured, she will i&ve abundant time to reflect opon the explo? dive properties of kerosene before entire re? covery takes place. - A gentleman Crom Swimming Pens inform xi us yesterday that negroes on his place iv.ve been applying to him for twenty-five cents each, to pay for registration tickets -hieb are beiog Tended over the County by a prominent Republican of this town. Col. Jos. H.JSarle gave a splendid recep-. tion to his friends on last evening. His spa? cious grounds were illuminated with bon? fires, and the lower rooms of his elegant home ^rere filled with guests who were enter? tained bj speeches from the candidates-elect, and regaled with a profuse display of refresh? ments. The occasion was one of extreme enjoyment to all who were present. Our early boor of going to press alone prevents a full description of the entertainment. The County Convention of the Republican party met here on Saturday last. The princi? pal business transacted was the election of delegates to the State Convention who were instructed to support Samuel Lee for Congress from this District. Lee seems to have the in? side track on Mackey and will doubtless defeat bim by an overwhelming majority. A railer account of the proceedings is copied (rom tbe correspondence of the News and Ctitrier. We were pleased to receive a call last week from the Rev. G. D. Bernbeim, D. D., who was here in the interest of tbe North Carolina College, located at Mt. Pleasant, - Cabarrns Co., of which he is President. We were also pleased to learn that he was so successful as to get several pupils from this County. Messrs. J. I. Moses, and Horatio Lenoir were the successful applicants for admission to the South Carolina Mifitary 'Academy. We congratulate them oar their success and hope-that they will always come out as well in future examinations. Mr. Alfred Brand will leave on Saturday for Marion where he will take charge of the Freight Depot and Telegraph Office. Although: we are glad to see our friend's just merits recognized by the Railroad authorities by appointing him to this responsible posi? tion, we are, nevertheless, loth to give him np, and we no doubt, like some of- the girls, will have "weeping eyes" to wipe on Satur? day.** J. W. Dargao, Jr., son of Maj Dargan, will go with Mr. Alfred Brand, to Marion, as assistant. MAGAZINES, &c. Southern Cultivator for September.-This sterling agricultural journal makes its ap? pearance for the first fall mooth, more hand? some and attractive, if possible, than ever. We opine that the publishers imagine that thousands of our farmers have been waiting the coming of tbe "money season" to indulge in the luxury of such a splendid paper. And we doubt not they will fully realize their expectations, for surely the progressive farm? er cannot do.without the old Cultivator. A farmer recently said thai be had derived bene 6t from reading Dr. Jones' "Thoughts for the Month" in one number alone to more than remunerate bim for a year's subscription. In every issue Dr. Jones maps out the farmer's work for the month in a masterly manner. Bill Arp contributes for each issue one of his inimitable letters. In tbe present number the addressses of Gen. W. Browne, (Professor of Agriculture, at Athens,) ?.nd of Judge Henderson, (Com? missioner of Agriculture for lue State of Georgia) before the Georgia Agricultural Convention at Marietta, are published. Both tbese addresses are full of wisdom and sound advice. The "Inquiry Department of the Cultivator is one of its leading features. Any resonable question that is asked by a farmer is answer? ed by Dr. Jones. This department is fuller in the Cultivator than in any other agricul? tural publication, North or South. $1.50 sent to Jas. P. Harrison & Co., Atlanta, will secare this journal in its en* Urged and iclarged and improved form, for one year. Subscriptions for the Cultivator will be received at the Watchman and Southron Office.

The Union Times comes out with this spicy statement r "Up to the time of putting our paper to-press yesterday every candidate in tbe field reported himself elected, and all the boxes, to hear from. It is probable that the official report from those boxes will | make some slight changes in the result. i UM A Jolly darkey explained the reason why bis nose was flat : 'Spec's it was made so to keep from pokin' it inter udder peeple's biz ness." Among all the other good things which Providence bas vouchsafed to Sumter this year, we find only an insufficient num? ber of flat noses. A Flourishing Southern City. The annual review of the trade of Charleston, given in the News and Courier on the 1st instant shows a marked improvement. The crop re? turns are so favorable as to more than compensate for thc disaster of last year. The yield of wheat, oats and corn far surpasses that of any previous season in South Carolina. The business of the city for the past year foots up ?75, 000,000 against $81,000,000 last year, notwithstanding the falling off io the receipts of cotton owing to the dimin? ished yield of the last crop. The trade in naval stores, lumber and phospbate rock exhibits a very heavy iocrease. The factories of tho city now number 138, employing 4,456 persoos, and a uew cotton factory with 20,000 spindles is nearly ready to start. The condi sion of the truck-farming, jobbing and railroad interests is more prosperous than for many years past. The Sad Scene Realized. Miss Hochella Blair, the young lady who committed suicide last week near Camden, was quite , an artist, for an amateur, and had spent maoy of her girlhood hours in putting on paper and canvass scenes drawn from events in ! ber life, or from imagination. Among others was a piece executed some months ago (before her father's death) which represented a young girl lying dead in the woods near a steep hill and the forms of three angels hovering over lier. The picture is said to be a correct one ; of the spot and its surroundings where ber dead body was found. The body iras found at the foot of Paint Hill, one }f the highest points in this vicinity, ind from the top of which a most beau? tiful and lovely landscape presents itself to view. On this hill and through the ir odds surrounding it (her home was on the top of the hill) she had roamed du? ring the years of her early life, and little dreamed, perhaps, that the picture ?be painted of it a few months ago was io he the scene of her death. But alas, time io its flight had caused many changes to come over tho rosy dreams rf childhood. First, the loss of her be? loved mother caused the happy heart to oow down in its sorrow as if it were al nost too much for her to endure. Then ;he sad death of her father almost bereft 1er of reason, and no doubt caused her io commit the rash act that set the ireary spirit free to seek that rest which io earthly power can give.-Camden Tournai. The Sumter Eepublican County Convention. ["Correspondence of tbe News and Courier.J SUMTE?., September 2.-Tbe County Convention of the Republican party as? semble to-day at the town hall. For the first time in thc political history of this county the Republicans were per? mitted to use the town hall for a conven? tion or any other purpose. What a Re? publican intendant could never do for his party, a good Democratic Couucil, in which ther*%was but one Republi? can, has done for the Republican par? ty of Sumter County. This is to show on which side the colored people's bread is buttered. There were ninety-nine delegates present, every one of whom was for Samuel Lee. Neither Mackey nor Smalls was present and the meeting was very quiet and orderly. The Convention had no sooner been called to order than an ardent colored Republican offered resolutions strongly endorsing Lee for member of Congress from this the 7th district. Buring the whole proceedings neither Mackey's nor Smalls' name was men? tioned. Sam Lee, county chairman, and F. F. Teicher, secretary of the county executive committee, remained the permanent officers of the Conven? tion by a unanimous vote. The following delegates to the State Convention were elected : T. B. John? son, Samuel Lee, E. J. Douglas, R. H. Richardson and W. J. Andrews To the Congressional Convention the following delegatos were elected : T. J. Tuomey, G. Wi Reardon, G. W. Mur? ray, A. J. Andrews, Z. E. Walker, T. J. Coghlan and Anthony Bracey. There was some, little opposition to electing this ticket as a whole, but the vote thereupon was 82 yeas to 3 nays, showing the temper of the Couveution, and even the three delegates who voted no declared themselves emphatically supporters of Lee. After the business was disposed of Samuel Lee addressed thc Convention by request. He spoke an hour and a half, and said nothing new except that whenever he thought the colored peo? ple would receive greater benefits and more justice from the Democratic party than from the Republicans he would ad? vise them to join the Democrats. As we hope in time to satisfy Lee's sup? porters, if not Lee himself, that we are the best friends of the colored people, we expect to make them all Democrats one of these days. Resolutions were passed instructing the delegates to vote for Lee from first j to last. S. H. Barrett & Co's New United Monster Railroad Show. Tbe above-named united World's Fair of living wonders, including the most Stupen? dous Menagerie, Caravan Museum .md Circus ever organized, will mass its multitude of amusement marvels at Sumter on Friday Sept. 15tb. Not ooly is it an entirely new, bright and brilliant, but also a massive, solid, hon- ! est railroad show, owning its own splendid omni of cars bringing savage Nature, in all the majestic illustrations of her living lessons, to your doors, and added thereto a far greater and purer circus than you have ever seen. No such collection of rare wild beasts and birds bas ever before been concentrated under canvas. Every continent bas contributed to its completeness, as every equestrian organi? zation of tiie great foreign capitals and every leading gymnastic school of the whole world bas furnished representatives to complete the largest and most brilliantly artistic circus ever organized on this continent, and one in which each pei former is a special star, aud one and all simply incomparable, while worlds of humorous folly and a varied programme of astonishing animal acts complete an enter? tainment which is the very acme of arenic achievement.
