?As the agent Of the Master of
Richland county the Sheriff sold on
Monday before the Court House door a
couple of tracts of land situated in the
souuieasiern pare 01 tins coauiy. it i
brought two dollars and fifty cents per j
acre.
Personal.?J. T. Barron, Esq., of
the Columbia bar, was in town on
Friday, on professional business.
Personal. ? Mr. and Mi's. David
"Wilson and Miss Jane Elder, formerly
of this town and county, but now residing
in Centralia, Illinois, are now
' visiting relatives here. We trust their
stay will be quite pleasant.
Serious Illness.?"We hear that oar
esteemed fellow-citizen, Dr. McLurkin,is
in very ill health. This intelligence
will be received with much
regret by his numerous friends. "We)
hope that he may be goon restored to
his former vigor.
Personal.?Mr. J. H. Harden, of |
this place, left on last Saturday for
Ocala, Florida, where he will ensrage
in book-keeping for Messrs. E. W.
Agnew & Co. His many friends and
associates here regret his departure
very much. We wish him all success.
The Merchants?We hear it.said
by those who ought to know something
about it that the merchants here
will sell considerably less than usual
on credit this year. As compared
with last year it is estimated.that thistrade
will be S3& per cent. off. If the
estimate is correct then it strikes us
that the arrangement may turn out to
be very unsatisfactory to the masses.
A ]Sew Impetus.?We hear that in
cnr*\A r\-f* /*r*nnfr' flmrr* lioc
been- a considerable advance in the
wages of farm bands, bet our informants
have noted no unusual deficiency
iin the supply. The laborer has, perhaps?.intimated
his willingness to try
and do better work than he has been
in thebabit of doing; and if so, he is
of course entitled to the encouragement
of more pay. A promise is. a
U. good consideration for a promise.
k i In the Courts.?A number of cases
r of assaults, and batteries, growing out
of the holiday festivities, await a hear- j
" ing before the trial justices. Some of!
them furnish first-class material for the !
pepcil of caricature.' For instance, a
robust "sport" at a country (colored"*
frolic knocked bis partner?a portly
damsel of ginger-cake complexion?
into the middle of next week for having
stepped on his toes in the "mazes
of the dance."
He \Yox-t Go.?E. H. Lea, Esq., of
the Richmond & Danville syndicate, is
in town. lie is desirous of interviewing
in the interest of his line all colored
men who wish to go West, and it
is understood that he will make no
j:. effort to dissuade any from going. "We
have no idea that be will accomplish
mncli here. The colored man of this
comity is very much devoted to his
domicile, and every one knows bow
difficult it is to induce him to move
even from one township to another.
MrsnraccTED Genius.?A farmer in
the southwestern part of this county
informs us that he has discovered a
scheme by which an acre of land of
ordinary fertility may be made to yield
two bales of cotton. We have only to
say that it is a great pity he couldivt
have turned his attention to the production
of something else. If he
would get a plan, for instance, by
which the same ground could be
made to produce seventy gallons of
molasses or a hundred bushels of peas
the people would never forget lnm.
Going West.?We hear a good deal
of talk just now among our young
men on the subject of going West.
There is nothing new in it, it is true,
but it shows that the fellows are still
dissatisfied. An exchange speaking of
the tendency of this class to find fault
with surroundings says that "there
happened to be once a very pretty girl
in a great city named Letter, and every
fellow in the place became dissatisfied
because he couldn't be a letter press."
it must be admitted that the fellows
will fly all to pieces about nothing, at
least in matters of this sort.
The Town Well.?Several persons
have spoken \o us very anxiously
about the matter of repairing the town
well, and we therefore take, this occasion
to say, that while we would like
as much as any one to see the old.
rnnnina fitraiji rktrilW fn tn
sufficient mechanical training anlk the
pressure of business, ye c&n't undertake
the job. But we would suggest
that if the Towh Council Veve solicited,
they might see some chance to have
it mended. It were a mistake to suppose
that only the floating gang get
water from this source.
Masonic Election.?At a meeting
of Kidgeway-Lodge, No. SO, A. F. M.,
held 021 the 27th December, the following
officers were installed to serve the
ensuing Masonic year:
S. F. Cooper, W. M.
Samuel Luiihon, S. W.
W. W. McQuatters, J. W.
John Mclntyre, Treasurer. '
J. A. Simpson, Secretary.
Samuel Simpson, S. D.
II.-L. Crumpton, J.D.
J. W. Brown, H. 0. Duke, Stewards.
J. E. Stewart, Tyler.
Ilow to Bring Factories.?Parties
owning fine water powers in places
suitable for the location of factories,
and we know of several in this county,
would in all probability do well to
have sketches of them with short descriptions
printed on hand-bills and
?v%/mi>? fU/v A*?.-? n f- fliA
U1MX1UULCU UJU VJtailA/iO iiv Lii^
Xew Orleans Exposition. This conntry,
if developed sood, must be developed
through the agency of foreign
capital, and there is no better way of
securing an influx of this than by
acquainting foreign capitalists with
the natural resources of the country.
A Mule Wantkd.?i^rtr
Jj^U^a qitizen ofjji^fmind county asking
us to ascertain how much a mule
may be bought for here, on time.
Without consulting a dealer we suppose
that we are entitled to suggest
that it depends a little upon the lime
of life at which the .mule has arrived;
a little, too, perhaps, upon the time
vrh'^h hp has had dnrin<? the vear
1S84; and a great deal npon the
time at which he will beyond all doubt
be paid for. In fact, we would say
the time element enters frequently into
the question. But come up, neighbor,
and settle the'matter for yourself. "We
can give no decided opinion in this
line.
"Vehemence.?A gentleman of this
place informs us that he picked up a
letter on thG street a few days since
commencing thus: "My own ever
dearly beloved," and ending with
"Yours as long as life endures." He
took it to the young fellow over whose
signature it was written and kindly
offered to say nothing about it. But
the young man would not allow him83lf
to be put under any obligations;
he swore it was a forgery; that he was
the victim of a conspiracy and could
whip any man in the United States.
He wouldn't take the letter, and it is
still in the gentleman's possession,
which is very unfortunate. If he had
been about six years older he would
have seen the importance of takiug
charge of the document, forgery or no
forgery.
_
The Latter Day Saints in the
South.?A correspondent of the 2Yews
and Courier writing from Spartan
burg tells bow the Mormons are
"working up" his county. It seems
that this church -now has missionaries
in every "Southern State. It is not
generally known, bnt they have been
working iu this county. As late as
last November two gentlemen styling
themselves "ministers of the gospel"
spent several days in the western portion
of the county. They, however,
made no converts, and we are free to
say that we do not believe that they
can make any here. The doctriue^
which they inculcate arc subversive of
society, as we understand it; their acceptance
implies an abandonment of
principles which we have hitherto regarded
with a very fanaticism of jealous
care. In opposition to the infamous
dogmas of this so-called church,
Protestants and Catholics and infidels
and atheists will be arrayed side by
side.
A Mistake.?}Yc hear it reported
f.hnt .1 npjrrn. who is lirino- nn tho
plantation-of Mr. Henry L. Eiiotl,
four or five miles from this place, had
his leg broken a few days ago by a
falling tree. We have not been able
to learn the particulars, nor have we
examined i'.ny one who, professes to
know the exact truth, but we hear it
said that he has been lying in a dying
condition since the accident, and that
every physician in this town has been
appealed to, and that each and evenone
of them has declined to go and
v iMP,:
amputate his leg. They have declined,
it is said, because the unfortunate
negro has no money wherewith to pay
for the operation. We have only to
say at present that there must be some
mistake about the matter; the doctors
of this ]:hico have always been regarded
as generous and nltilanthropic men,
and they could not have declined an
errand of mercy in this fashion. We
refuse to believe it. No lawyt-r of
any standing will decline to defend a
man charged with a serious offence, for
the simple reason that he has no money.
And they do not claim, nor lias it ever
been claimed for them, that they are
ahead of the medical profession in this
particular. The report is not true.
The Local Editor.?The editor-inchief
the metropolitan daily has, as
every one will admit upon a moment's
reflection', a very laborious task. The
time of 110 other man, perhaps, is so
closely occupied. lie is expected to
keep a constant watch over both men
and events. He .must be a vigilant
policeman to the former, a sound interpreter
to the latter. An infinite
variety uf duties press themselves
every moment upon his consideration.
He must be a ready man or he must
step down and out. Well, as we say
everybody knows this, the man is fairly
appreciated. But now just take the
local editor of the county weekly, if
you please, and see how lie stands.
He couldn't convince anybody to save
his life that he was "more than two deIgrccs
removed from the gen tic.nan of
7? ** /% I !.? 1?.jc Knf #?nn
i JV i^ui yiiv iliuv vviitiv>
to look after, %-and- rio one can see why
he should spend more than fifteen
minutes a day at that. It-may be
shown, nevertheless, that he has something
to do; whether he does it or not
is another question. Mr. !>., an old
subscriber, will leave home for a day
or two. .He docs not know himself
exactly when he will go, but the local
editor xnus?. find out when he has
'gone in time to get it in the next issue
of the paper or there will be hard feelings.
Again Captain II , an old patron
of:the paper, has created a new henroost
in Bis hack yard; well this, discovery
must be made and the requisite
honorable mention given to the same,
or an order may come to "stop my
paper." No telling whether there will
he any liquidation of arrears or not.
I Then, too, Mrs. S. is sure to complain
that the account of her daughter's marriage
in the last issue was a shameful
misrepresentation, and the local editor
neea not be afraid that ho will ever go
to another wedding- at that place, either
as bridegroom or otherwise. Not to
wander too far into detail?, it may be
sufficient to add that this same man is
expected to suggest every few days an
appropriate name for the baby. If he
makes a hit well enough. If the uame
he sends in is either too ancient or too
modern he had better keep to his sanctum
for some time afterwards. When
we add that he is expected to do threefourths
of the paper's lighting, his defence
to the charge of being a sardine
is clearly complete.
A CARD OF THAXKS.
'~~~3fccsrs. desire (has pnblicly
to express my own and the thanks
of ray family for the many and substantial
tokens of friendship and sympathy
bestowed upon us by our friends
since the burning of our barn and
stables, stock, etc., on the night of
August ID, 1884.
Through their voluntary liberality,
unsolicited by us, we have been made
the happy recipients of another excellent
and commodious barn, a nice new
Tennessee wagon, the loan of two
good mules,% besides oats and other
teed to a considerable amount, so that
if not fully reinstated from our loss we
are nearly enough so to make n* realize
the great benefit of living in a
Christian country. May we not say,
thank the JLorci tor good inenasr
Allow rae, in conclnsion, to say, that
we do not know who all contributed
to oar help, as our friends who took
an active part in soliciting aid for us
have not furnished us with the names
only in part, yet we pray that He who
knowetli all things may reward you a
hundred fold. And should you ever
be called to suffer a like calamity?
Heaven forbid, it!?may you find as
many and substantial sympathizers as
we have found.

A CARD OF THANKS.
Messrs. Editors: On Friday last
members of Scion chnrch and congregation.sent
to the manse for their pastor
and his family gifts ol useful things,
consisting of articles of apparel and
provisions for the pantry?flour, meal,
rice, potatoes, hams, fresh meats, preserves,
jelly, sugar, coffee, tea, canned
goods, soda, starch, soap, butter,
pickles, and fowls?making the list too
long to be mentioned particularly. The
money value of these things is by no
means inconsiderable, bat the spirit of
kindness in which it was done is of
even higher value. The number of
those who sent these gifts is too large
for me to thank them one by one, and
mflnv thincrs ramp with nn name at
tached and 110 clue by which the giver
might be known. For' this reason I
?ck leave to express in The News and
Herald, as i do now, my sincere
thanks to all those friends who in this
and in other ways have not ceased to
show kindness to me from the day of
my coming among them.
Thanking you for your courtesy in
granting to me this space in your
paper, I am yours, etc.,
D. E. Jordan*.
THE EXT Eli TAIX MEXT AT SUILOIT.
jgessrs. Editors: There was a theatrical
entertainment rendered at the
old academy li^nr Jenkinsville on the
evening of January lj the purpose and
object being to obtain funds to help
out the home missions of the Little
River Baptist church. The clouds
were lowering' and the rain began to
fall, but notwithstanding all this the
people came out and showed by their
presence their deep interest in the
cause for which it was given, and that
snug little building was soon seated to
I its full capacity. There were people J
I from all points of the compass, and
the Boro was well represented by
Misses Mamie Owens and Sallie Clowney,
and Messrs. George Lauderdale,
David McDowell, G. W. Ragsdale and
O. W. Buchanan.
The curtain was soon raised, and
"Simply to Thy Cross I Cling," a pretty
tableau, was tastily and prettily
rendered.
An amusing dialogue was indulged
in by a miss of the year and style of
1785 aud one of tlic style and bearing
of IS80, which was roundly enjoyed [
and applauded.
"The Honeymoon" was well gotten
up, showing a due appreciation of that
paradisiacal condition.
The pictures of "Domestic Felicity
and Infelicity" were lifelike'and showed
an easy adaptation on the part-of the
participants to the varied relations demanded.
"The Masterpiece" was excellent
and did great credit to the judgment
and discernment of those who suggested
it, aud its rendition was such
as a more pretentious troupe might
well feel proud of.
"Woman's Rights'' was well chosen,
and in this day and generation when
the advocates of woman's right to the
franchise are growing important, it
was exceedingly approprirte.
"isiue-Deara," none me iess 10 ue
admired because we heard it told from
the lips of our mothers when a small
child, was played with a zest, piquancy
and style which showed the keen and
due appreciation of the parts, and infused
new interest in an old story.
The voung ladies rendered their
parts and took off the characters they
assumed remarkably well, and showed
talent of no small order. The gentlemen
demonstrated their good judgment
and due estimates of their characters.
QCI VIVE
THE FEASTEBVILKE GBAJiGE.
Messrs. Editors: About a year ago
I gave you the names of the officers
elected to serve for the year 1884.
Now I have here another list of officers
electcd at the annual meeting in December,
1884, to serve for the year
1885:
M. D. C. Colvin, Master.
J. F. Coleman, Overseer.
James Pagan, L.
L. B. Harris, C.
A. D. Rose, S.
M. C. Feaster, A. J.
J. R. Feaster, Secretary.
Henry Jenkins, G. K.
Miss Mary F. Coleman, C.
Miss E. C. Feaster, P.
Miss J. I. Coleman, F.
Miss M. Y. Feaster, L. A. C..
Since the last election u year ago this
Grange has been progressing in number
of members and in influence. The
farmers of Feasterville have organized
a system of co-operation that renders
the members independent of the Lien
Law. I said the farmers of Feasterville,
bnt I mean the members of the
Feasterville Grange, as all the farmers
in that neighborhood are not members.
This Grange has always been alive;
sometimes it was sickly, but never
dead. For a few years past, however,
the improvement has been very great.
"WrtTxr n orrpnf imprest is manifested.
not only by the old members, bat by
the whole neighborhood, and at every
meeting there are applications for new
members.
I said the members were independent
of the Lien Law. So they are;
as the credit of this Grange is as good
for what the members are worth to
buy on credit as any merchant in the
State, and they have had offers from
the, best houses to supply them with
all they need at a small profit.
They have sent for exhibits at the
Cotton Centennial Exposition at New
Orleans nearly as many articles as the
whole county besides?and 1 might
venture to say as any two or tbree
counties. They have sent one bale of
cotton, made oh a Grange experimental
farm. They used some land for the
purpose of testing seeds and fertilizers,
and on Wis iana tney maae ninny
specimens sent to the Exposition; and
to make a bale of cotton, the members
sot fine seed and raised cotton for this
Grange bale; each one who wished
contributed, and they have, perhaps, as
good samples as Will be seen at New
Orleans.
It is a wonder that the old granges
have not revived, as every one must
see that farmers need some association.
This would enable them to do what
each one for himself can't do.
Mr. D. R. Feaster has the power
from the Sjate Grange to organize new
granges or revive ola ones. j.
ITEMS FROM SALEM.
?Labor is somewhat scarce in some
parts of the country.
?Misses Sue and Lizzie Owens are

long since.
?A happy new year to* yon, Messrs.
Editors, is the wish of all the good
people of Salem.
--Mr. Joel Barley, of Lonisiana,
who has been visiting relatives in this
section, returned horns recently.
?In consequence of the heavy rains
during the first of last week Little
River was rendered impassable for a
day or two.
?The young folks have resumed
their divers business, after spending
two weehs enjoying the festivities of
the past Christmas. "
?We hearjof.sevecal of the African
persuasion who contemplate emigrating
from this locality to the "West.
" Vade in pace, est vox populi
?Foot peddlers are rather. 011 the
increase, several having passed through
this section recently. They complain
of heavy packs and none the less of
light pocket-books.
?Latin and single-entry book-keeping,
although not included in the
branches named in the Teachers' Certificate
of Qualification, are taught in
some of the free common schools of
this school district. .
?Some of the "kid-glove" gentry
and matrimonial candidates have been,
during the holidays, basking in the
sunny smiles of their dear ones, while
others, we are sorry to 'say* have been
deprived of even the faintest rays that
fall from the eyes of the ones they,
love. d. e. j.

A EEMAEKABLE PLOUGH.
The Wonderfal Invention? f an Ingenious
Son of Newberry.
Messrs. Editors-. Maior Thomas C.
Crooks, of Newberry, lias exhibited a I ^
considerable amount of ingenuity
which is verified by the fact that he
has recently invented a machine which i
he calls a "Combination Plough/' for ^
the purpose of cultivating cotton, and
which is acknowledged to be a masterpiece
of mechanism by all who have i
carefully examined it, a brief description
of which is here given: The
frame of it (with scat for driver at- ?
tached) is similar in shape to that of a
"sulky," the axle and wheels, how- 1
ever, being constructed of much
lighter material. There are four iron
rods to which the ploughs are attached 7
and they to a lever with slide, which \
regulates them; and the lever which is 3
the second mechanical power, is at- 3
tached to the axle, and is arranged in ^
such a way as not only to reverse the ^
ploughs, but to elevate or lower them 3
of nloo enpo TVio n'nnorhc miv hfi 4
" f*-? J -elevated
Above any stamp of ordinary *
height or lowered so as to ran as shal- 4
low or as deep as desired. Instead of 4
having to ran fonr farrows to the row 4
by going throngh the field four differ- j
ent times in order to prepare land for 3
planting, as is the case ordinarily, the 4
"Combination Plongh" perforins this 4
work, splitting oat the middles at the ^
same time by means of ball-tongues of
mediam width, which follow immediately
nfler the ploughs in the centre of
the furrows, all of which is performed 4
by running only one furrow to the
row, or going through the field once, as
it were.
Major Crooks, who is a gentleman
upon whose statements you may iinpli
citly rely, aud who is careful, it seems,
A rrtrtU/Mi oflrf 4 4 Vl?C?
UUb MJ UYCiliUC IUC UiUtcci , aajo iua? wig
plough has been submitted to a verythorough
test; that it works admirably,
accomplishing everything that is
claimed for it; and although it requires
two horses to dx*aw it, at least four *
times as much work can be accom- ,
plished by the use of it in one
day as by any ordinary one-horse 1
plough. The Major has applied for a 1
patent, the model now being in Wash- ,
ington. He received a letter from the i
Commissioner of Patents not long 1
since with the satisfactory reply that 1
the same would be granted him at an 1
early day. This speaks volumes for j
the Major, and no doubt it would be 1
of interest to every enterprising- farmer :
to examine this wonderful labor-saving- j
machine. d. e. j. o

From Macon- ?
c
In August, 1881, it was discovered that 3
my son's wife was in the last stages of con- ?
sumption. She wa? coughing incessantly *
and at times would discharge quantities of ^
pus from her lungs, could not sleep or re- 4
tain, anything on her stomach, and we 4
thought it only a question of time when 4
life would be compelled to give way to the 2
fell destroyer. After all other remedies
had failed, we got Brewer's Lung Kestorer ?
and began it in very small doses, as she ^
was very weak. She soon began to im- 4
prove; continued the remedy and was re- 3
stored to life and health, and is to-day bet- 3
ter than she has ever been before. I recriirH
her restoration as nfcarlv a miracle.
for which she is indebted to Brewer's 4
Lung Restorer. 3
