The merchants, here agreed not to sell to tbem unless the cotton was compressed here. Cotton dealers else where bad written stating that they would give one eighth percent, more on the pound for compressed r^.ton. Messrs. A. S. Brown, C.fi Sia *r . Abe Ryttenber^ were sent ?s cotD.ji.t..<. to Willmfrgtoo and as the result tbe cotton merchants there will take compressed cotton. Norfolk and Augusta also want our cotton. Tbe advantages of compressing cotton are clear, the freight upoa it is less and it brings one eighth per cent, more per pound. Tbe large consignments of cotton daily en route to tbe Compress is sufficient assurance that it bas a plenty to do. New Buildings.

Epperson who has been ill for several weeks died at his home on Main street in this city on Sunday afternoon last at seven o'clock. His funeral services, held at the Presbyterian Church yesterday morning at 10 o'clock, conducted by Dr. N. W. Eimunds were very impressive. The Voluntary was a solo beautifully sung by Miss EUa Moran, of Charleston. Dr. Edmunds preached au appropriate sermon, from the text ''Teach us so to nura ber,our days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom " The Sumter Light Infantry,, of which be was a member, attended the funeral in full uniform and marched in the procession to the cemetery where his remains were interred. Mr. Epperson was a member of the Ancient Order of United Workman. His character was above reproach. He was a dutiful son, affectionate brother, a faithful friend?an honest maa and Sumter has lost a valuable citizen. Candidates. Col. D. J. Auld announces himself a can didate for County Auditor. The card of Maj. E. F. Burrows, as candi date for County Commissioner, appeared in only apart of our last issue. Those of our readers who did not see it last week will take notice that the Major is a candidate, and those who do not know him can take our word that he is an A 1 man. ???- -<> - ? Don't Decline. It will be seen by the card of Mr. Richard I. Manning, that he cannot allow bid name to be presented for the House of Representa tives. As we go to press we learn that an tff>rt baa been made to prevail upon him to reconsider hss determination. The Demo cracy of Sumter needs him at this juncture, and his patriotism we hope will not permit him to persist in his declination. He is one man that the people of both factions will have no doubt about voting for. A Brand New Officer for the Coast Line. Captain R. A. Brand the popular Sumter depot Agent of the Atlantic Coast Line has been promoted to the position of freight soliciting agent for the Road, wi'h ers at Sumter. His younger brother will fill for the present the position made vacant by bis promotion. Capt. Brand is Captain of the Sumter Light Infantry and President of the Sumter Demo cratic Club. Academy of Music. A peep into this resort of the pleasure seekers of Sumter, revealed a little gem of a theatre, wiih a seating capacity of four hun dred. The hall has been transformed and the stage re-modelled. The door has been elevated and within the cberrystained railing and along the side aisles are the latest improved noiseless opera chairs, which not only afford comfortable seats, but convenient hat-racks. On either side of the stage is a handsome box, stained in. walnut, carpeted and cur tained, containing six seats each. The stage is covered with a reversible green and red baize carpet, and has two hundred and fifty pieces of Sw-eucty and srt pieces. Of the drop curtain we need only say !h?t it was painted by Mr. Eugene Cramer, of Columbia, and is a view of lake ,;Como," nestlejd amid the ' Everlasting hills," and upon the placid surface of its water the beautiful Italian sun clouds are refitted. The walls have b*en freshly frescoed by Mr. Alphonse and the wood work was done by Mr. McKiever. The hall including the stage and five dressing rooms will be illumi nated by fifty incandescent lights. Mr. Schwerin ( who has leased the Academy for three years) has eugaged the services of the Sumter Orcbesir*. The new Upright Piano has been placed in position, and the opening'troupe will appeir in the Comedy, "Hoy t'a three fast men,-"' ou the evening of the 27th. Pc st Office Change. People going to the Post Office yesterday morniog for the mail were struck blank with astonishment on finding the usual approaches to that place of univer&il resort completely barricaded with old tecce-boards placed up right ou the piazza. To all appearances the Post Office officials must have 'folded their tents" in the night time and "silently stole away." The Post Office is now in one of Mr. Rear don's building?, on Liberty street. The people of the town have been holding indig nation meetings about it and think the U. S. Government and Post Master Reardon ex ercised to much "Liberty" in this move without consulting them. They say that on Court House Square, in full view of, and uear Main street is the best and most con venient place fur the Post Office to be and not around the cerner ou a side street. Another great objection, a number of the ladies of the city hare hitherto found pleasure and recreation in walking to the Post Office for the mail in the afternoons, and Court House Square affords a cool, shady and quiet, walk, whereas the present location is by the side of a bar-room, and faces another across tbe street, where rowdies congregate, and which makes tbe walk for them exceedingly unpleasant. In justice, however, to Mr. Reardon we publish his reasons for the move, which are : That after inspection by tbe U. S. Agent, Mr. Beard, be was authorized by tbe Govern ment to move for the want of space to transact the business of the office, and on the ground of health?by reason of bad sanitary surroundings. He further says be has spoken to the authorities of the town, asking tbem to enforce order and quiet on Liberty street and apprehends no trouble from that source to any one. The Sumter Hotel. The subscribers to this great enterprise held a meeting yesterday evening in tbe City Hall. It was found that all tbe stock had been sub scribed, except $9,400?$35,000 being the whole amount necessary. A Board of Directors was elected, consist ing of the following members: Messrs. J. C. Wilson, 1. W. Fowler, W. F. B. Haynsworth, W. M. Graham, A. S. Brown, Abe Rytten berg and B. D. Lee. The following resolu tions were passed : Resolved, That a committee of five be ap pointed to solicit subscriptions to tbe S9,400 balance of stock and make their report not later than October 15 next. Resolved further, That no installments of stock be paid in until the whole amount of $35,000 be subscribed Tbe meeting then ad journed until the 15th of October next unless ordered sooner. It will be remembered that Mr. J. C. Wil son gave a lot valued at $5,000 for the pur pose. Several have subscribed handsomely and some liberal and public spirited citizens in tbe meeting yesterday actually agreed to increase their subscripuon 40 per cent, on con dition that all tbe subscribers would do tbe same. Tbe merchants are the ones who will be principally beoeStted by tbe building of the hotel, and yet it is a notorious fact that a large majority nave not only neither sub scribed anything nor manifested the slightest interest in the scheme. This, ?oo, when everything points clearly to tbe unusual growth and prosperity of the city, when two railroads have come to Sumter, and two more are to be built in the near future. The matter now rests upon a sound business basis. It has been unanimous ly decided that no work shall be commenced upon the building until ail tbe money has been paid in. Only $9,400 remains to be subscribed, and every one interested in build ing up tbe town should feel it his duty to subscribe?a reasonable sum?most especially the merchants?and this small balance can be raised at once and the work commenced. It is the decision of all interested not to incur any indebtedness on the building, but raise tbe entire amount and own it. Gin House risks taken by A.C. Pbelps & Co., Insurance Agents, Sumter, S. C. A Watch "With a History. The fact that Mr. W. F.'B. Haynsworth bad his watch stolen from his bed-room, some weeks ago, has been given to the public; but the watch has a history which remains to be written. Outside of the intrinsic value of tbe watch, there were good reasons why Mr. Haynswortb should prize it very highly. It was reaily a reward of merit. Years ago, in '68 or '69, Mr. Haynsworth was entrusted with the settlement of a large estate, the property of Mrs. Livingstone and Mrs. Mazel, grand-daughters of Powell McRa, Jr., who once lived in the Wedge?eld vicinity. These ladies moved away from Sumter coun ty in their youth and were married to the gentlemen whose names they still bear. Mr. Mazel was Belgian minister for a term of ; years, and occupied other positions of public trust. In tbe absence of the owners of the large estate, Mr. Haynsworth was entrusted with its management and settlement. Large amounts of money passed through his hands. In one suit be recovered thirty thousand dol lars. About 1875 tbe matter reached a final settlement. The ladies were so much gratified with Mr Haynsworth'8 conduct of the busi ness and had learned to esteem him so highly, that the watch which has been stolen from him, was bought in Sweeden and forwarded to him a3 a mark of appreciation of bis faith ful labor. Wherever it is, it bears on the inside the simple inscription, "Presented to W. F. B. Haynswortb, Esq , by Mary S Liv ingston *nd Julia M. Mazel." Who the thief was, no one knows; but it must one day come to light. A reward of twenty dollars has been offered for its recov ery. Independently of the reward offsred, there are many persons who would consider it a pleasure to restore tbe watch to its right ful owner because of the hieb regard they have for him. It would then come to him a second time a3 a reward of merit. Hot Suppers. The ladies of the Bethel Baptist Chnrch, in Privateer, will give a hot supper on Wednes day afternoon, Sept. 24. The public are cordially invited to attend. There will be a hot supper given at the residence of Col. W. D. Scarborough on Friday evening Sept. 19, for the purpose of raising funds to complete the Tirzab school building. Mr. Jno. T Green is expected to deliver an address. The public are cordially invited to attend and a good supper and a pleasant eveuing is promised to all. ?

Faiuisr. Her Prayers Useless. An Augusta family was about to move down the river into what was reputed to be a malarial country. In the family was a little girl. She, like the mother, did not rare par ticularly about making the trip. .She was Snyinsr her evening praj-ers at her mother's knee the night before their departure After finishing those she had been taught, she sur prised her mother by adding, with peculiar emphasis, "Now, dood-bye, Dod; to-morrow we are doing to Sleepy Hollow." The pathos of this leave taking would have lost its import if that family had brought with them a supply of Dr. Westmoreland's Calisaya Tonic. As an anti-periodic and stimulant, and as an eradicator of malarial poison and safeguard against its inroads, it is the medi cine of the age. No family in malaria dis tricts can afford to be without it. For sale by all druggists, and wholesale by Dr. A. J. China.
