Prices Adapted to the Times.? The Sheriff sold a small lot of personal property in front of the Court House ft . on Tuesday morning. The crowd was r either in no buying- humor or there was 110 money in it, but we will not undertake to say which. An old ^ horse'that had evidently lost nearly all self-respect and had perhaps forgotten , the taste of corn entirely, was knocked rdown at $4.92. A Place for a Factory.?A good place for a manufacturing city of no small importance may be found in the western portion of this county at the $ Parr Mills, now owned and operated by Messrs. J. C. Swygcrt & Co. The water-power is absolutely unsurpassed and the railroad facilities are all that could be wished. Parties on the look out for a place to loeate cotton factories W will do well to visit this place. It contains a bonanza for energetic capi ? ialists. A Liberal Offer.?In order to advance our subscription list we have decided to make the follow in? offer: To any one ser. ling us one dollar cash ' -rill send the Weekly XeWs AKt> Herald till January, 1SS6, or for two dollars ca?h we will send the tri-weekly Xews and Herald till the same 'late.

This to stand until the loth of Jane next. As Inquest.?The inquest in the case of the little negro girl, daughter of Allen Boyd, was held on Wednesday. The corpse was exhumed and examined by a physician, who, however, could not say positively that death resulted from violence. Other testimony was taken and the jury re turned a verdict that the deceased came to her death by violence at the hands of Allen Boyd or Tody Boyd, or both. Tody Boyd is the stepmother of the deceased. * _ Judge Robertson's Funeral?The funeral services of the late "\Vm. R. Robertson were held in the Episcopal church on Thursday afternoon, the Rev. II. O. Judd, of Columbia, offioiat- j ing. The pali-bearers were, Messrs. G. II. McMaster, James A. Brice, T. K. Elliott, "W. G. Jordan, D. R. Fleuniken, R. E. Ellison, H. A. Gaillard, and Dr. T. T. Robertson. The remains were interred in the cemetery in he northwestern portion of town. The services, both at the grave and in the church, where attended by a very large concourse of people. A Handsome Present to the Gor- j dons.?After the contest for the prizes j offered by the company was over on j Friday, the Gordons' received, with j the compliments of Miss Sallie Garri- j son, a lanre and handsomely iced cake,! n T T i. Dearmg me monogram u. .u. ?., ue awarded to the best shot in a special contest. An appeal to marksmanship was at once taken and Mr. J. M.; Smith was this time the fortr.rate contestant. The present was very much appreciated by the company, and we j commend Miss Garrison's example to other girls who may have something nice to say to the boys, but just don't feel like saying it. The Teachers' Association.?The Teachers' Association met at White Oak on last Saturday. Owing to the j fact that there was preaching at two j churches in the neighborhood the attendance was rather small. uonsiuerable interest, however, was manifested in the proceedings by those present. A discourse of unusual interest was delivered by Professor Witherow, of Chester, on "Light/' He spoke from the teachers' point of view, considering mainly the methods I of presenting the subject to children j by experiment with home-made ap- j parata. His address was very much appreciated. The School Commission- i er informed the Association of several donations of books from different publishing houses since their last meeting. The next meeting will be held at Winnsboro on the second Saturday in June. Petit Jurors.?-The following is the list of jurors drawn for the June term of Court: John D. Harrison, TV. H. Padgett, J. J.

The Review and Inspection of the | G. L. I.?The Gordons passed in re- i view and inspection before the Adju^ j tant and Inspector General on Tuesday j evening. The Company numbered I Rirfv.civ nnfj filp. and as mi^ht be I expected of fine looking men in handsome uniforms, with glittering pieces, tliev presented a very creditable appearance. The drill took place in front of the Court House and was witnessed by. a large crowd of spectators. The narrowness of the street would not allow entire freedom of movement, but the whole performance was nevertheless a splendid exhibition of training. At the conclusion of the same General Manigault, in a few well chosen remarks, expressed his gratification at finding the Company in such" fine condition, and took occasion to say that it wa?, with the exception of three companies that have been drilling for the Mobile prize contest, the best drilled company in South Carolina. The people have every reason to be proud of the Gordons. Death of Mr. J. F. Arledge.?Mr. J. F.'Arledge, a well known citizen of this county, who resided in the llocky Mount section, died somewhat suddenly on Monday. He came to town with Mrs. Arledsre, to attend to some business, and went to the county treasurer's office to pay bis taxes. He complained of feeling badly, but recovered enough to go on the streets and make some purchases. He then went to the store of Mr. J. O. Bcag, to meet Mrs. Arledge, and while standing with her he fell suddenly to the floor. He was taken to a room, and medical aid was obtained. About two o'clock he seemed r+r\S\n ivtao'va rt n U/mi ^ vutowu jjioy vvvsiai;, auuauuut four o'clock breathed his last. Mr. Arledge was a good citizen, and his j death will be generally regretted. He was about seventy years of age, and | leaves his wife and one child?Mrs. J Wyliei, Davis, of Ridge way. - Fast Time.?For some time past the | time between Charleston anil Columbia ! has beeu four hours by the two comj peting lines?the Atlantic Coast Line j and the '"'South Carolina Railroad, i About ten days since the South Caro! lina Railroad changed their schedule, I mn in o | LA-4V. * Will *-* 1A.1W AAV/WtO UilU ! fiftv-five minutes' and on Moudav I * ' - * 1 i.. .1 ~ . * . . , *- f me Atlantic uoast JLine snorienea its schedule, making the run in thi'ce hours and fifty-three minutes. At once the signs of u test of speed were apparent, andj without notice to its competitor, the South Carolina Kailroad schedule was again shortened, and on Tuesday they came in in fine style, having made the run of 130 miles in three hours and forty-nine minutes. But the ever wide-awake Atlantic Coas. Line, having accidentally learned of its competitor's change, shortened its schedule and made the run { from Charleston, being 137 miles by this route, ia tiiree hoars and forty- ( three minutes. It is rumored that the J Sof.th Carolina Railroad now proposes to shorten their time to three hours j and a half, while the Atlantic Coast Line say to the public "they'll be thar too7'! A Brilliant Keceptiox.?A bril? j liant entertainment was given op Tuesday night by Colonel and Mrs. Jas. H. Rion, on the occasion of the reception to Mr. Holbrook Rion and ; his bride. In company with several | friends we strolled down Main street at an early hour and soon came in sight of the handsome residence of Colonel Kion, which was artistically lighted with Chinese lanterns and presented from without a unique appearance. The sruests commenced to arrive J at 8 p. m., and in a verv short while a ; large crowd had assembled, and havingbeen presented to the bride and groom j settled down into a somewhat hilarious i conversation. The flow of mirth and wit continued until 10 p. m., when an adjournment to the dining-room was had where an elegant repast was served. At 11 p. m. the guests took leave of their host and hostess and departed with many expression of good will. Among the.distinguished guests from abroad were Col. F. \V. Monaster, of Columbia, Gen. John Bratton, of White Oak, Senator Woodward, of Rockton, Gcd. A. M. Manigault, of Columbia, Miss Kate Pratt, of Lancaster, Miss Helen McMaster, of Colombia, Misses Janie and Josie JDell, of Hazlewood, and Misses Mary and Mattie Aiken, of Cokesbnrv. The re ceptiou was all in all a most enjoyable ; occasion. The Shooting at the Picnic. The following is the score of the Gordons at the recent picnic: 1st. 2nd. 3rd. Capt. Jordan 0 3 3 Lieut.

A Natural Curiositi .?There is a curiosity in the nature of a white-oak tree, in Dr. Madden's woods ?the (Gordons' nicnic ^rounds?that seekers after anomalies iu nature, will do well to visit. We sav tree, but perhaps we had better put the substantive in the plural number. We will however leave this matter, grammatical accuracy, to our readers, arid return to the phenomenon under dis cussion, which consists of two parallel and perpendicular saplings or sprouts, about six and eight inches in diameter which stand upon each end of an oblong stump from which a tree was felled years ago. The two trees stand fifteen inches apart and about four feet from the stump a limb four inches m diameter shoots upwards at an angle of about sixty degrees and describing a line of moderate curvature, grows firmly into the other tree. None but an expert can tell to which it orig nally belonged, if indeed either evjr naa an exclusive possessory right. n is hard to say how the phenomenon camo abont. Grafting is extremely improbable. The extremeties of the % 1* * ^ r* ^ aa+A Ic f urno are 01 int; smut: oi?&c auu tuvn ? imbedded in a tree. It has no foliage, it is a mere connection between two trees which have a common stamp and which we think may be called, not inuppropriately, the Siamese twins of the world. Return* after Eighty Years.?Mr. W. A. Shaffer, a gentleman eighty-nine years of age, accompanied by Air. J. F. Wood, registered at the VViunsboro Hotel. Mr. Shaffer emigrated iroin here eighty years ago to Louisiana where he has spent the greater portion of his life. His visit here was simply for the purpose of seeing once more Hie place of his nativity. He procured a horse and buggy and drove down to his fathers old place, about seven miles j from town, which is now owned by j Mr. Arthur Hays, and is saul to recog- j nizc completely the place and its sur roundings. The rocks, the spring, the j path to the spring and other objects'of j natural scenery, were just as he ex- . pected to find them, though a new generation of men had sprung up around them. Mr. Shaffer is a sugar planter and is a type of the old school Southerner which is fast becoming ex tinct. With characteristic hospitality | lie invited several gentlemen in town ! to visit him down at his plantation] near New Orleans, in the fall and promised them a good time. Mr. Wood is a native of Massachusetts, who came South in early life and is also a sugar planter. They returned home on Sunday via Washington, D. C.
