^ Annnal Report?J. R. Boyles, Clerk.
L ocal Brief;.
?Mr. John P. Matthews, Jr., has
moved into bis new store.
?We notice several changes of re sidence
here daring the past few days.
?J. E. McDonald, Esq., is preparing
to build a new residence in the
ricinity of Mount Zion College.
?The Board of County Commissioners
met here on Friday and transacted
a good (leal of routine business.
^Sandv Robertson is stopping with'
Sheriff McCarley again. He is charged
this time with an attempt at burglary.
?"We hear of a great many Christmos
nsrHps: fhron^hoilt tllC COlintV
during the past week. "While we
Jive let us live."
?A Georgia boy who wrote to Santa
Claus for a pony put- a postscript to his
letter, saying: "If he is a inewl ty
his hine legs."
?The public schools of the comity
arc said to be in a flourisliing condition.
A considerable increase in the
r\-f rkrsrnlc i? rpnortfid.
?The local department of The j
News and Herald has been for the i
past month and will continue under
the charge of G. W. Ragsdale, Esq.
?Quite a variety of horses, mules,
wagons, buggies, carts, etc., were
sold on Monday by the sheriff at prices
to suit the times.
?The smaH grain throughout the
connty is said to be pushing vigorously
onward in spite of these snaps of
inclement weather.
Our public highways might be better
than they are just now, and they
^ might be worse. In other words they
are not quite the happy mean between
extremes.
?The negro who was shot recently
at Peak Station, by the town marshal,
was removed by his friends to Spartanburg
and we have no later advices
of his condition.
?The' pedestrian of last Sunday
morning fonnd but little difficulty in
assuming the horizontal position. "We
have heard of several falls, but no one
as far as we know was seriously hurt.
?Mr. and Mrs. G. C. Bacot and Mr.
and Mrs. D. J. Macaulay have re_
-,vnioved for the presen* to Darlington.
These gentlemen will engage therein ,
buying cotton.
? Jno. J. Neil, Esq., has in course
of erection a building on the rear side
of Law Range, which will front ou
v Washington street. It will be occupied,
when finished, we are informed
by Capt. I. N. Withers.
?AH the college boys returned on
Friday to their respective institutions.
If any of the girls are distressed and
will send in their cards we will send
the junior editor around to talk to
them.
?To adopt the phraseology current'
. . - among t^ose here, who buy on such
security, we may say that the season
for "opening liens" has fairly set in.
This style of paper will perhaps be
expanded this year io an unusual ex
r tent. .
?At the last meeting of the board of
county commissioners it was resolved
that no account be approved unless
presented three days before the meeting
of the board. Parties having
claims against the county, will do well
now to bear this in mind.
?A gentleman from the country inquired
of a friend in town ofi Monday
i if it were possible to get a drink. He
wa? promptly informed that the town
had gone "wetv and that he could now
be accommodated at a number of places
along main street.
T.iTtAT? ?Tf. I* said that, mnrft hanas
are hiring for "standing wages" this
rear than in any former year since the
surrender. ,
Guano.?Large quantities of guano
' it is said, are boing shipped to various
points in the State. This means we
? take it that another large crop '.of cotton
is to be planted this year* t? "
Recreation. ?The masquerade carnival
at the Skating Rink 011 last Friday
night was apparently enjoyed very
much by the participants. The masks
at generally seemed to serve the purpose
unusually welL Owing to the fact
I v that it was too cold to stand around
and do nothing, there were spectators.
Sit pab TSmi. F.statk.?Tn fTie
* of Garden vs. Garden, the Clerk of the
B Court re-sold, ou Monday, at the risk"
of a former purchaser, a tract of one
LjL hundred and twenty-three acres of
life land. It brought niue hundred and
Mar fifty dollars. Fifty dollars less than it
- sold for on. last sales day. This was
the only real estate sold.
Presets.?The Surgeon-General of
the B. P. U., we are informed, has
been sending around among the young
t . ladies some very elegant Christmas
presents. This dignitary once wore
the badge for being the most consist
ent bachelor in the Union, -bnt it is
pretty safe to say that he won't wear
I it soon again.
A Rush.?Under the new ordinance
* - fixing license at four hundred dollars
it will cost two hundred and fifty dollars
more to sell whiskey than formHf
erly. "We understand that about eight
- bar-rooms will take au even start on
January 3, six applications having
' - - ^ V;;'
: '

| been already taade. Hofr nlaily of
these will sniVlve the winter we can't
say. "That is their business."
Without Feak of God on Max.?
Nat. Ilali alias Knox, charged with
Breaking and entering1 Hortnah Baptist
church and stealing thereupon
various articles of church property,
was committed recently by Trial Justice
Cafhcart to await trial at the next
term of the Court of Sessions. A colored
gentlemen of town expresses the
opinion that "he must have had a very
strong appetite to breakinto a church."
Fire Crackers.?If there is any
one thing that the people of this town
have got enough of now it is the fire
crackers. We hope that the small
boys, the white and black loafers and
all other gentlemen of elegant leisure
will now give us a rest on this nuisance,
at least at night. Otherwise
someone will be-compelled to wake
- x up
the policc and put them after the
malefactors. Cotton*.?The
December report of
the department of agriculture -upon
the cotton product indicates a smaller
yield of this staple than we have had
for a number of years past. The official
estimate is fixed at 4,700,000
bales. If we recollect distinctly, the !
fullest crops hare approximated 7,000,000
bales. It will be.observcd that the
falling off is enormous?2,300,000 bales
?and it is hard to see why it should
not produce an advance in the price
of the staple. _
Cotton.?A Xorth Carolina paper
expects prosperity to its farmers from
the fact that they will engage this year
in the cultivation of cotton. We are
in position to give a little advice, and
we caivt help saying to our friends
that they had better "diversify." Our
farmers have been trying for the past
twenty years to get rich by cultivating
cotton, and the result has been that
they liaye bankrupted themselves and
wasted the natural resources of the
soil. We think the universal experi
ence iu these parts bears us out m rne
assertion that out of cotton alone 110
salvation can come to farmers.
Masonic Election.?At a rfccent
meeting of the Masonic Lodge of this
place the following officers were dnly
elected for the ensuing Masonic year:
John J. Neil, W. M.
Geo. B. McCants, S. W.
Jno. W. Seigler, J. W.
C. M. Chandler, Treasurer.

W. M. Propst, Secretary.
O. TV. Buchanan, S. D.
H. Y. Milling-, J. D.
J. Groeschel, It. H. Simpson, Stewards.
Phillip Landecker, Tiler.
In* Search of Bah-.?Scipio Cohen,
was brought before Trial Justice Cathcart
on last Saturday charged with
selling cotton under lien, without giving
notice notice of euch purchaser.
The Trial Justice having decidcd to
send the case up, granted Scip., the
indulgence of an hour to find a bondsman.
He made a thorough canvass of
the town without success and then
consulted his council upon the pro
priety of penetrating- farther into the
country. The suggestion, not being
discouraged by counsel was acted
upon. He returned on Monday with
bail.
Winks boko Chaptrk.?At the regular
monthly convocation of Winnsboro
Chapter, No. 2, K. A. M.. held December
1, 18S4, the following officers
were elected to serve for the next ensuing
year:
J. S. Conner, M. E. H. P.

Lunar Politics.?Messrs. jLauuerdale,
McMaster "and Alston, of this
place, resolved themselves on last
Monday evening into an investigating
committee and proceeded forthwith to
Eock Hill. They expected to find and
did find at this point obstritse difficulties
with which to grapple and they
engaged diligently at- the task. Having
accomplished as much here as
could be accomplished at-one time,
they retired on Tuesday morning to
York. At this place they found much
to do, and of course left much undone,
but they say that their labors are not
finished and merely report progress.

from the Charlotte Observer may be of
some interest to those here who expect ,
to attend the inauguration. That journal
says:
The railroads have already arranged
the rates to and from "Washington city
for the inauguration. The fare from
Charlotte to Washington and return
will be $16 for citizens and $10 for
members of military companies. The
regular fare is S25.50, so it will be
seen that $16 is cheap enough for the
trip. A person can leave Charlotte on
the evening of March 3, spend the day
in Washington, witness the inauguration
and -leave for home on the night
of the 4th, arriving here at noon on the
oth. A more convenient trip could
nnf lio jnTflp.orpf} nntl fhn number of
pc-ople who will go from this section
will be a legion.
Bigamy.?A colored gentleman, who
is by profession an exhorter in the
A. M. E. Church, South, has been
bound over to appear at the next term
of the Court of General Sessions to
answer to the charge of bigamy. Becoming
dissatisfied it seems with his
domestic relations he applied abo..t a
year ago to a trial justice of Newberry
county, who very promptly granted
him a divorce a vinculo matrimonii.
The wife, it appears, became dissatisfied
with the arrangement and instituted
this proceeding-. The defendant
will have an opportunity to try the
respect which one tribunal in South
Carolina has for the decisions of another.
The lawyers think that the
doctrine of store deccsis will get another
blow.
Misdirected Legislation.?A good
deal of ridicr.Ic has been justly hcapccl
upon the author of a bill introduced
in cur lii.st Legislature entitled "an
Act to prevent the entrapping of roons,
raccoons, possums and opossums on
the lands of another," but it seems to
us that the 'ircntleman deserves as
much mercy ni the hands of criticism
as the author of another bill also introduced
at the last session entitled
"an Act for the protection of girls
against bow-legged men." Tlie preamble
to this Act recites: "Whereas
tlic country is full* of how-lodged
young men going about seeking whom
they may hold upon their laps, etc.;
and whereas (he exceeding danger of
falling through parenthesis legs,'' etc.
The opponents of this bill very reasonably
contended that when a girl sits
on the lap of a bow-legged .young
man sue ought to be left to the chances
of a catastrophe. And again that
most bow-legged young men could
and would hold them in their places;
and lastly, that these were some evils
in this world that the Legislature
could not cure. The bill was lost.
How TO KAT Co UN AT THE TABLE.?
Polite society has organized the fact
that it is the proper thing to eat the
iiovn 1'mni the cob. and 110 man now
eating it cob and all is invited a second
time to our West tables. The manner
of devouring this delicious bivalve in
its natural state varies with the strength
and tastf of the consumer. The destroyer
may hold the cob in one hand
in a perpendicular position and shave
the corn off with a dinner knife. Care
must be taken to smite the edge of the
plate violently with every stroke. By
this means two or three resolute and
active corn-shavers can successfully
drown-out the lively conversation of
twenty people. It' the browser is extremely
dainty he may prod otf t he corn
one grain at a time with a fork. Thus
he will preserve a high standing in society,
but will not get any corn. In
court circles it is permissible to hold the
U !il.
tuu wiui uuc uuuu anu uiuuig ?iui 1110
other, care being taken not to allow the
nose and chin to meet on the other side
of the cob. Bnt perhaps the only feeder
who gets all the corn he wants, and
gets it comfortably, is the epicure who
clutchcs the cob in both hands, one at
each end, sharpens his teeth, and
gnaws away at that cob like a rat at a
flour barrel.
"Chinese Gordon."?A biography
of this remarkable man ought to be
interesting reading, especially if written
by the famous hero-journalist and
veteran war correspondent, Archibald
Forbes. It is not, therefore, surprising
to see numerous editions of it published.
First there was the English
edition, of course at a high price, then I
a reprint at ?1.00 per copy, by an
American "high-priced" publisher;
now follows the uLiterary Revolution"
edition, lar^o handsome type,
neat cloth binding, for only* fifty
cents! The publisher, John B. Aldeu,
393 Pearl street, New York, will send
a 100-page descriptive catalogue of his
publications, covering the entire field
of standard literature, free to auy applicant.
"Aldex's Juvenile geai"is the title
of a new illustrated weekly paper for
young people, the publication of which
begins with the new year. It is a new
departure of the prolific "Literary
Revolution" and will therefore be examined
with particular interest by
some hundreds of thousands of readers
who have come to look to that eni

in the amount and quality of its attractions.
A specimen copy will be sent

AS INDUSTRIAL AWAKES ISG.
"There is a great industrial awakening
at the South and the New Orleans
fair is one of the most striking evidences
of it. While, the North has
been forced to hard study of the problem,
what can be done with a waterfall
or a ton of coal, various canses
have combiucd to render the South
careless about questions of economy.
P.nt of late vears there has been a
change. The South sees the great
wealth which has come to the Northern
States from manufactures and reasonably
wishes for a share of the profit
of that class of enterprises."
Jlessrs. Editors: The above is written
by a friendly Yankee, but judging
by some of the men who represent us
in this part of the South lie is greatly
in error. Here we want no manufactories,
no white immigration, no white
mechanics. We respectfully decline
to awake. The nigger and the mule
(in the distance) and the poor land are
enough* for us. The only aspiration
we have in life is to be permitted to
follow our occupation of skinning the
above objects and turning over the
hides, "though after all the} are not so
durned fat," to the merchant and the
LUVXi^r wiv iwu;vi.
Sleepy.
XOTES FROM THE CAPITAL.
Messrs. Editors: Perhaps you will
not object to a past Xmas letter from
an unknown pen giving you a short
account of what has happened in the
city daring the joyous Christmas tide.
Up to the day before Christmas the
hotels were thronged with legislators
who have been diligently making laws
for the welfare of the people; but on
the night previous the Legislature ad
journea, and by tne next aiternoon
there was not a single stray law-maker
to he found withiu the corporate limits,
for like the Arabs they had under the
pale, cold light of the stars silently
folded their tents and stolen away.
I will not enter npon a criticism of
the work done by this Legislature.
Suffice it to say that though they would
occasionally fly off on a tangent and
and go to talking about things enteresting
to nothing in heaven or earth or
| the beings which dwell in the waters
under the earth, still they have done
much which should win tor them the
commendation and praise which is
s
HM r,-, ? .nafetfei
I awarded to the faithfdl and hdnefit
; servant.
j Fairfield lias good canse to be protid
j of libi* delegation. Personally, the}'
i werb popular with the body of the
Legislature, whiie their conservatism
and discretion won the respect of all
on the floors of the two house. The
quick-witted and ready Douglass
watched with an eagle's eye the pro;
ccedings of the body and was e*er
! ready to advance with sound argu|
inents the good cause and quick to foil
I the bad one. The modest and unas]
filming Rutland though slow to press
forward unto undue prominence felt
keenly hi? obligations to defend and
i protect the rights of the people whom
! lie represented. The enthusiasm and
| dash of these young Ruperts were
i admirably tempered by the cool-hcadcd
and sedate Brice, whose long experience
rendered him. a good adviser ou
all points of State policy.
Last to mention, but by no means
the last in points of merit, was the
Senator from Fairfield, who knows so
well how to bear the honors which his
county has bestowed upon him. Of
i his services in the Senate it is useless
! to make comment, for every "man,
! woman and child in your conutv
! knows full well that the Major's only
| thought is Fairfield's interest first, last
and all the time.
There will of course be some carping
critics who will say that there was
much time consumed and little work
done, but if they knew what they were
talking about they would not be quick
to express unkind opinions on the subject.
The duties of a legislator are
hard, for the fi^ht is generally between
intelligence and ignorance." Judging
from some of the bills introduced
it would seem that some counties
selected their greatest ass to represent
them and that votes were to be won
by length of ear rather than by weight
of brains. As a specimen of* some of
the bills introduced by some one of
these gentlemen, I will give the iitleof
one bill introduced: "A bill to prevent
the entraDDinsr 011 another's land
of coons and raccoons, possums and
opossums, minks and weasels." The
argument nsed in support of this wonderful
measure was that it would prevent
the stealing of seed cotton. As
the gentleman failed to show the connection
between the trapping of the
animals and the stealing of seed cotton
the Legislature refused to protect
the sensitive coon.
In the beginning I promised to saysomething
about the Christmas in
Columbia, but ran off on a side-track.
However, if yon wilf excuse the delay
I will get back on the main line.
"We have rung the bells and have raised
the strain,
Hung garlands everywhere;
We bade the tapers twinkle fair.
And feasted and frolicked?and now we go
Back to the same old lines again."
Some with aching hearts and some
with aching heads, judging from the
generally hilarions air of those whom
r eaw )?to loct niorVif ?nf\ tho
JL CU IT AMkV iMUb Ail^UV) M?*V? v?j V VMMVtW" vv?
aud repentant. look they were this
morning, I would say that the aching
heads were in the majority. The
small boy was of course in his glory,
and with pockets well stuffed with
fire-crackers and with a tin horn glued
to. his lips he promenaded the streets
from the chill gray dawn of morning
till darkness fell "from the wings of
night, making the daj' hideous with
a discord of horrible sounds, which
made one sigh for a resting place in
vast wilderness where the sound of
the horn is not heard in the land and
the small boy is unknown.
"Wishing' yon a happy aud prosperous
new year, I will say au revoir,
Columbia.
From Macon.
In August, 1881, it was discovered that
my son's wife was in the last stages of consumption.
She was coughing incessantly
and at times would discharge quantities of
pus from her lungs, could not sleep or retain
anything on her stomach, and we
thought it only a question of time when
life would be compelled to give way to the
fell destroyer. After all other remedies
had failed, we got Brewer's Lung Restorer
and began it in very small doses, as she
was very weak. She soon began to improve;
continued the remedy and was restored
to life and health, and is to-day better
than she has ever been before. I regard
her restoration as nearly a miraele,
for wliicli she is indebted to Brewer's
Lung Restorer.
R. W. BoxisEK, Macon, Ga.
Brewer's Lung Restorer is a purely vegetable
preparation, contains no opium, morphine,
bromide or any poisonous substance,
