The Health of Wixxsboro.?A
special dispatch to the Neics and
Courier says.
The health of TVinnsboro is as good
as usual. There are. however, a few
cases of fever, including two of typhoid,
the latter now fully convalescent.
The health of the county in
general is, from the information I can
gather, about as good as usual. There
are some cases of malarial and of
typhoid fevers, but there is nothing
Htf* fin nnidemic.
L
The statement above is doubtless
correct and based upon the most reliainformation.
There are, perhaps, a
few* more cases of fever in the county
than we would suppose, from the article
above, but we have no grounds for
fearing anything like an epidemic.
Fairfield can justly claim to be one of
the healthiest counties in the State.
The Court of Sessions.?The fall
term of the Court of Geueral Sessions
for this county opened on Monday
morning, his Honor James S. Cothran,
Judge of the eighth judicial circuit,
presiding. Ilis Honor charged the
graiict jury as to their duties in gen
crai, and more especially as to tne
cases in which bills were banded out
by the Solicitor. Several cases were
submitted, and true bills were found.
The Court then proceedod to the trial
of cases, as follows:
State rs. Clifton Dillard, charged
with larceny of grain from the field?
stealing a bundle of oats from afield
it? the plantation of Gen. John Bratton.
Mr. 0. W. Buchanan appeared
for the defence. Verdict?Not guilty.
Fixe Cattle.?Mr. D. R. Flenuiken,
of our town, has a herd of imported
Guernseys which we think can
scarcely be equalled, much .less excelled,
on tlie Island of Guernsey.
They arc from strains that are noted
for quantity as.well as quality of milk
and butter. He has a heifer (La Zinea,
Xo. 1,757,) eighteen months old, with
an- udder that measures?previous to
calving?fifty-five inches in circumference,
sixteen inches from point to
point: of front teats, and thirty-four
inches in length. We think this extraordinary
for a cow thai has not
reached maturity. Mr.Flenniken has
three other heifers that are equally,
promising, but are not so far advanced.
Farmers aud cattle men who have not
seen this herd will be well paid to call
and examine for themselves. We
understand that Mr. Fienniken proposes
exhibiting his cattle at the State
Fair, and we may confidently expect
that he will carry off the blue ribbon.
Candidate for Congress.?A writer j
from this place to the JVetcs and Con- j
Her says of Mr. D. R. Feaster and his j
nomination for Congress:
The nomination of D. R. Feaster for
Congress makes no impression here,
except to excite some merriment. He
is. a man of considerable intelligence
and good personal character, but of
limited education. In a normal condition
of politics he could never be nornnatea
.for Congress. He was in 1876
and for some time afterwards an active j
Democrat, beins: the president of one
of the finest clubs in the admirable
organization then and since existing
in this county. In 1878 he became dissatisfied
and quit the club. In 1S80
he, McLane and V. P. Clayton formed
a Greenback club here, the first in the
State^ In 18S2 he ran for the Legislature
on the Greenback ticket, but was
overwhelmingly defeated. He received
an extremely small white vote, not
moi*e than forty or fifty, if so many.
He will have no better following in
his race for Congress, and will, of
coarse, be beaten, "it is presumed that
he will run the race -through, as he
' ' ? a?
was present at me convention wmcn
nominated him.
The Jadicial Convention.
The Convention called to meet in
Chester last week for the purpose of
nominating a Solicitor for the Sixth
Judicial District, has met and adjourned
sine die without making a
nomination. There were four candidates
in the fielft?one from each county
in the circuit. Mr. J. E. McDonald,
throughout the entire session of the
Convention received the""eighl solid
votes of Fairfield (with the exception
tion of the unmeaning and complimentary
votes exchanged), Mr. T. C.
fioifnri fViA Aiwhf- frr?m C!hf>sf-pr_ AT J*.
W. B. ilcCaw the teu from. York, and
Mr. M. J. Hough Lancaster's six. One
hundred and sixteen ballots were
taken, and the delegates, in disgust,
voted an adjournment, and even- man
returned, respectively, to his own
home. It is due to Chester to say that
her delegation voted solidly against
adjournment, and it is also due the
gentlemen who represented the other
three counties of the circuit to state
that adjournment was only "Voted for
after it was evident that 110 nomination^could
'possibly be made. Some
of the -candidates doubtless should
have been withdrawn, but the question
as to what one or two of them
should be sacrificed could not be answered.
and the conscience of the
/
Convention, right or wrong, decided
that an adjournment was preferable to
a "lottery nomination,'* The sessions
of the Convention "were pleasant indeed,
and the writer was glad of the
privilege of being present and participating
in the deliberations of that
body. Messrs. A. E. Davis, Chas. A
Douglass, E. D. Moblcy, John D.
Harrison, Thomas S. Brice, Joseph K.
Alston, J. M. Higgins and J. "W, Houahan
composed the Fairfield delegation.
The executive committee of the circuit
will doubtless call another convention,
to meet some time cfcring the
present or next month.

BOGS.
Messrs. Editors: Through, the columns
of your paper I will urge my
protest against tho recent action of
Council, in passing the ordinance pro-hibiting
the keeping or raising of hogs
within the corporate limits of the
town. - -v
I think, in our present economical
status, with short crops, stringent
.money market, undiminished and an
diminishing; taxes, etc., that the action
of our Council was unwise, aud'adverse
to the majority. Argument
would be useless, to convince those
Avho approve the action of Council,
that a hog or two in an open lot, or
about a stable (especially a livery
stable), would be beneficial rather than
otherwise. Hogs are good scavengers,
and contribute frequently to the destruction
of decaying animal and vegetable
matter, itself favorable for the development
of disease. Few would doubt
the proprietyI believe, of even permitting
three or four hogs running at
large in the streetsjof the town during
the months of July und August, were
it .practicable to have the.m; but it is
liot. For the same reasons I wish one
or two to destroy the refuse qf. my
own lot and garden.
I would not be understood as advocating
the existence, of one single
(3x6 feet) pig pen./ By 110 means.
On the contrary, when- such annoyances
do exist, they should be (and
they can.be) easily abated as any other
nuisance by application to Council.
Little objection, I think,. can be raised
against keeping a hog daring the winter
months.
In a practical point, of view I think
this ordinance will bear especially and
more particularly upon those citizensliving
on the saburbsof the town.1 If
they should feel that it does, I hope
they will, urge their, objections to the
ordinance.
It cannot be doubted that it is a.
matter of some importance when we
think that 15,000 to 20,000 pounds of
first-rate bacon can be raised within
the corporate limits of the town in a
nort'? on/1 fhnf manv fMtiw.ll.Q
cau, with little expense, produce sufficient
meat to remunerate them, in
part at least, in return for taxes.
Such, Messrs. Editors, are a few of
the reasons why my objoetion is'made
to the ordinance, and I hope it will be
repealed or expunged from the record.

Mb. J. 0. Boag?Dear Sin I bought the
first Davis Machine sold by yon over five
years ago for my wife, who has given it a
long and fair trial. I am well pleased with
it. It never gives any trouble, and is as
good as when first bought.
J. W. Bozjck.
Winnsboro, S, C., April, 1883.
Mr. Boag : Ton wish to knew what I have
to say in regard to the Davis Machine bought
"if you three years ago. I feel I can't say top
much in its favor. I made about $80
within five months, at times running it so
fast that the-needle would get perfectly hot
from friction. I feel confident I could not
have done the same work with as much ease
and so#rrell 4Kth. any other machine. No.
time was lost in adjusting attachments. The
lightest running machine I have ever
treadled. Brother James and William's
families are as much pleased with their
Davis Machines bought of yon. I want no
better machine. A3 I said before, I don't
rtivnk too much can be said f?? the Davis
Machine. : "

Having bought a Davis Vertical Feed be*
tog Machine from Mr. J. 0. Boag some tki_t
years ago, and it havicg given me perfect
satisfaction in every respect as a family machine,
both for heavy and light sewing, and
never needed the least repair in any way, 3
can cheerfully recommend it to any one as a
first-class machine in every particular, and
think it second to none. It is one of the
simplest machines made; my children use it
with all ease. The attachments are mort
easily adjusted and it does a greater rangf o1
worthy means of its Vertical Feed than any
other machine I have ever seen or used.
