?Several sleighs were out in fall
riggings on the streets on Tuesday and

impromptu, but suited for the pleasures
of the particular occasion for
which they were intended.
?The Yorkville Enquirer of this
week says: "The Winnsboro News
and Herald has recently added a
power press to its mechanical facili- j
which is a pleasing evidence of I
J - the
prosperity of that excellent jonr- i
nal."

day of December to toll out the "wet i

gUIAUVll v* feM-w ? - ? The
programme was gone through
with with solemn and stately dignity,
and one by one they wended home- (
ward their weary way.
???Severe colds and some cases of
pneumonia are prevalent now in some
portions of the county. The physi- :
cians report the present weather as
unusually favorable to pneumonia and ''
caution prompt attention to apparently
insignificant colds as likely to ripen
into the more dangerous and fatal ,
forms. Too much care cahuot be taken
under the circumstances.
?The friends and members o f the (
New Hope Associate Reformed church
in the northern portion of the county (
are now making energetic efforts to
erect a new church building upon the
site of the old one. Men of determi
nation and vim are at the helm, and
none need be surprised if a new building,
tastefully and elegantly constructed,
be ready for occupation bv January
of next year.
y ?A number of colored people in
the JeilKinSVilie lOWnsuip are preparing
to emigrate to Florida, some to
settle permanently, others only temporarily.
The inducement seems to -be
high wages. The rapid settlement of
that State by immigrants and the
number of railroad enterprises that
are being pushed to completion give
an increased demand for day laborers. 1
?The wind and the snow s'orm on
last Tuesday night were something unusual
in this latitude. The wind blew
violently throughout the entire night
and the snow in fine, thick flakes fel!
without interruption till nearly daylight
on Wednesday morning. The 1
snow drifts in places are between eight
and ten inches in depth, and clear
MMtli ? liftrthwMt wind, is the
YV VabllWl | TVAWM W uva ? ? ?r .. .J
last item of the weather record as we
go to press.
?The reading room has been an
established fact for several months.
* "fTiat it is a good institution will not be
denied, bnt there is another truth of
cardinal importance to the success of
- said institution, to wit, that the reading
public should return the books acAAHi?!n/r

we throw out as a gentle hint. Men
are usually ready to return an injury,
generally they return thanks, and it is
said that they always return to their
first love, but they never return a
book.
Columbia Growing.?The Columbia
"? * . a x. r"tr
correspondent 01 inc Augusta vnrou&?
tele says: "Rents for real estate in
Columbia, principally residences, liave
K advanced rapidly recently. On small
P cottages that have been renting at 8200
per annum the rents have been- advanced
to $300?an increase of fifty
per cent."
Faikfielu Granite.?The city authorities
of Wilmington, N. C., have
given an order for granite blocks for
paving several of the streets of thai
enterprising city. The block will be
furnished from the llock City quarry,
near Rockton, in this county. This is
additional proof of the popularity and
worth of the Fairlield granite, and we
doubt not the demand for it will be
fully up to the ability to supply it.
School Tax.?At a meeting of the
taxpayers of School District No. 15,
heid at Monticello on last Tuesday, the
8th inst., an additional tax of two mills
for school purposes was voted unanimoiislv
for the vear 1831. Our friends !
of Monticeilo are alive ta the importance
of thorough progressive education,
and their action on last Tuesday is
substantial proof of their interest and
sympathy in the common schools of j
the county.
A Full Quota.?The Rev. John T.
Chalmers, the general agent for the
Theological Seminary at Due West,
has commenced his tour on behalf of
that institution. So far he has been
remarkably successful in raising funds
for the endowment. At three churches
in Fairfield county he succeeded in
raisin? S3.000. If other sections of
the country prove as liberal and generous
as Fairfield, Mr. Chalmers will
experience but little difficulty in raising
the desired amouut in his allotted
territory.
Teachers' Examination. ? Thursday
and Friday, the 3rd and 4th inst.,
" pro /Invc ivhtfh pinnlnvnd hv thfi
Board of Examiners in the examination
of teachers. About twelve, all
white, were examined 011 Thursday
for the first grade certificate and folly
twenty-five, all colored, 011 Friday for
the second and third grade certificates.
No report upon the success or'failure
of the several applicants can be made
for several weeks to come.
Personal.?Mr. J. Fleming Brown,
of this place, lias been elected Principal
of the High School at Lynchburg,
in Sumter county, and will leave here
for his new field of labor in the course
of a week or ten days. Mr. Brown
has been engaged in teaching in Union
county for a number of years, and has
given general satisfaction wherever he
has taught. The trustees and patrons
of the Lynchburg High School have
been fortunate in procuring his services
for the ensuing scholastic year.
The Blythewood Ticket.?The
municipal election was hehl in r', thewood
on Tuesday, the 8th inst., and ,
the foilowing ticket was elected: W. J.
Johnson, intcndant; J. L. Wardlaw,
J. R. Kennedy, J. D. Hogau and D. P.
Hoffman, wardens. The gentlemen in
aathoritv for the ensuing year represent
the best element in Blvthewood

is every confidence that the municipal
affairs of Blythewood will be wisely
and properly managed.
Cold Weathkr "Narratives"?
The Chester Reporter tells some hard
things on the cold weather in that section,
and we hope Christian people
won't questiou their truth. The following
samples will suffice to illus
trate:
The result lias been as usual?a big
freeze up; pumps aud well machinery
"out of fix," water pitchers bursted,
kerosene oil "solid" in the lamps (they
do say that oil froze in a lighted lamp),
Dgg shells peeled off ruby ears and
drippy noses. Beside?, the town has
been well nigh in a state of blockade,
communication with the country being
llmost entirely cut off.
Here is an* Incident of the severe
weather: The water in Mr. W. H.
Wise's well, fifty-two feet deep, was
frozen over on Sunday morning. This
was told us Monday "and our informant
says he'll freeze to his statement.
A Skillfcl Operation.?Drs. T. T.
Robertson and E. W. Aiken performed
a, skillful and qnite painful operation
upon the eyes of an old colored man,
Thomas Sanders, in this place, several
days ago. The old man was entirely
blind from a cateract that had grown
over his eyes, and the operation consisted
in the cutting away and removing
it. The patient, although old,
stood the severe operation without the
use and aid of chloroform, which nn
dcr the circumstances is rather unusual.
It is hoped that the operation
will result in an entire restoration of
the old man's sight, but it is impossible
as yet to predict the results. He is
now doing well.
Left for Florida.?Mr. A. Jones
Lamar, a son of Colonel Kobcri G.
Lamar, who has been for a number of
years engaged in successini ianmug in
this county, has sold his plantation and
moved to Florida. Mr. Lamar expects
to stop a few days at Hamburg, his old
home, to visit friends and relatives, on
tiis way to his new location. He exDects
to sro into the railroad business in
Florida. Mr. Lamar is a thoughtful,
wide-awake and progressive young
tnau, and Fairfield county loses a good
citizen by his departure. The kindest
wishes of his marry friends will follow
him to his new home.
A Prominent Tax Delinquent.?
It will be interesting and amusing to
the public generally to learn (bat
would-be Governor J. HendriX McLane,
of Greenback-Kuklux notoriety,
failed to pay his taxes for last year,
and necessitated the issuing of an execution
against his property. Whether
the late Honorable ?J. Hendrix was too
impecunious or too unpatriotic so to
do is foreign to the question, but all
the same it stands out a bold fact in the
public records of this county that one
Greenback-Labor-Reform aspirant for
the gubernatorial honors of South
Carolina failed to pay his little pittance
or contribution towards sustaining
the government of the State
UK,.
Over which lie inu ??uiu u>> ui&
eternal God" to preside. The taxes
were paid, not willingly, not voluntarily,
but by the iron-clad procesess
of the law. Is comment necessary?
The Lectuke. ? We are requested
by the County Board of Examiners to
state for the benefit of the public generally
that owing to sickness and
further unavoidable, circumstances,
several members of the Board were
unable to be in attendance npou the
purged lecture by Dr. Stott on last
Saturday night, and lor this reason
and others it was thought best to abandon
the idea. Dr. StoiF would have
done all in hi* power to meet the
expectations of our people, and his
acknowledged abiiitv is guarantee

disappointed. For the Board and for
ourselves, we regret the necessity of
the disappointment.
The Editors on Christmas.?The
i Newberry Observer has been irapru{
dent enought to expose some of our;
i brethren of the quill, but since the |
j mistake lias been committed, we give j
?? - * !
J specimens ror tne amusement ui mu i
reading public. It says:
Nearly every edicor has had sorae!
thing to say about Christmas. Nothing
has been said of an original or
Startling nature?with possibly two
exceptions. One editor, in commcnti
ing on Christmas, informs is readers
mat me aay is set apart iu ueiuLuaiv
the resurrection of the Saviour. This
was intended by the editor as "news",
to liis readers?and no doubt it was.
Another editor, who differs from the
foregoing as to the object of tiie day,
writes very touching!}* and-feelingly of
the birth of the Saviour nineteen
thousand years ago, and draws an
eloquent picture or" the pilgrimage to
Bethlehem of the Wise Men ot the
East, who "were guided by a cloudy i
pillar by day and a pillar of fire -bv
night."*
?Fine stamping for any kind of
embroidery executed in artistic style
by Prof. DeHerradora. *
Personal.?Miss Kate Douglass,
daughter of the JRev. James Douglass,
of this county, has been elected assistant
teacher in the Blackstock High
School. The selection is an excellent
one, and her past success as a teacher
insures for her increased popularity
and usefulness in her ne\v field of
labor. The corps of teachers as it now
stands are: W. Banks Thompson,
principal; Miss Kate Douglass, viceprincipal;
Miss Marion Durham,
teacher of music. The Blackstock
Academy promises to accomplish much
educational good in that community.
Judge A. P. Aldrich will preside at
our February term of the court.
Dr. S. G. Miller, of Woodward's,
pant us a very pleasant can on jpruiay.
Mr. George II. McMaster left town
several days ago for Ocala, Florida,
to visit friends and relatives. He expects
to be gone several weeks. "NVc
wish him a pleasant visit to the "Land
of Flowers".
The Misses Bell, of Hazlewood,
Chester county, are in town on a visit.
The New Railroad.?Our gentlemen
friends of the northwestern section
of the county are considerably
exercised now-a-days over the rosy
prospects for a broad-gauge railroad
through that portion of Fairfield. It
is hoped and thought that the projected
railwav from Monroe, X. C., to
Augusta, Ga., will strike an air-line
from Chester to Augusta. If this line
or course is adopted it will probably
follow the track of the Charlotte,
Columbia & Augusta Rairoad to Cornwell's,
in Chester count}*, pass along
in the neighborhood of New Hope
church, touching at Albion, and cross
Broad river at Strother. The course
above indicated will probably be
adopted by the authorities of the new
road, and it would add no little to the
geueral good of one of the richest and
most prosperous portions of Fuirfield
county. The gentlemen interested are thoughtful
and kind enough to wail
/vitai* WitmehAm'c onnfAmnl?!mis
fortune in the premises, and the sympathy
expressed is of coarse duly appreciated,
but after all the county-seat
expccts to grow in proportion as the
county generally or any portion thereof
becomes richer, happier and more
prosperous.

Law, now one of the Principals of the
King's Mountain Military School at
YorkviUe. General Law is well
known throughout the State as one of
the bravest and most efficient officers
who served iu the Confederate army.
A distingnished graduate of the Citadel
Academy, and a soldier as well by
nature as by training, he combines in
an unusual degree the elements which
fit him admirably for. his present position.
Col. Coward, the well known
head of the institution, will find in
General Law an able assistant in the
good work in which the School is
doing so much.
Mr. James McGill. of the Monti
cello section, has closed up his-affairs
here, and removed to Texas. Mr.
McGill is one of our stannchest and
most highly respected citizens, and his
departure from the county will be
universally- regretted. We wish him
the fullest success in his new home.
"We are pleased to learn that Mr.

now much better. We hope he maysoon
be restored to perfect health.
Mr. W. S. Rabb, who has been for
some mouths iu Florida, has returned
to "Wiunsboro. He is heartily welcomed.
Greenbrier Church.?The Rev.
Robert Stork, writing to the Southern
Christian Advocate, says: "Greenbrier
Church, Fairfield Circuit, lias
been especially blessed during the past
year in health, peace and spirituality.
The Chnrch has met all ol her assess- j
ments, which would average a little j
over four dollars per member. Then
the ?food womeu deserve great credit
for their untiring Zealand faithful work.
Only ten members, seven of whom arc
on the active list, yet they have raised
in cash (together with work on hand)
one huudred dollars, and still have
two months before close of fiscal year.
You see that is ten dollars per member
for ten months. May this provoke
other societies unto good works. The
jQveniles, twenty in number, have
raised in the same time seventy cents
per member. ...Our members, old and
young, will not exceed forty, and all
in moderate circumstances, yet over
two hundred and fifty dollars haveJbeeu
raised during- the year of '83.. All the
social meetings are attended to, and
i our pastor, Bro. McCain, has bestowed
honest and acceptable labor upon his
field. His return gladdens the hearts
of all. The tracks of former pastors are
manifestly seen, and their names are
as ointment poured forth. The Christmas
tree and dinner were enjoyed b mIL
and this writer and his better half
were substantially remembered. Despite
the inclement weather, we enjoyed
the watch-night meeting. It was a
season of divine power and sweetness
to each sonl. The entire congregation at
the dawn of the new year gave a snb|
stantial token of appreciation, and
vowed to live better than before."

were.
