Death.?Mr. a. M. Paul, an aged citizen of the county, died on Wednes~ day, the 17th inst. He had reached the advanced age of eighty-seven years, leaves several children, a number of grandchildren and many friends to monm his loss.

C., has conferred the decree of LL, D. upon Col. James H. Rion, of this - place. Col. Eion has been eminently f successful in his profession, and while he has devoted himself to this with that assiduity without which success is ^ impossible, he has not neglected other fields of thought. He is a man of wide and varied attainments and in honoring him, Davidson College has honored itself. The Rock Hill Militia.?Messrs. T. "W". Lauderdale and II. B. McMaster, of this T>laee. annonrfrt nfirsnn.iTlv n.t Rock Hill on Tuesday eveniug and had tbc pleasure of witnessing the pluuie drill of the Catawba Rifles and the broom drill of the young ladios of that f town. Mr. McMaster occupied, by invitation, a seat on the the judges-* stand. They returned on Wednesday and report both of the said companies in fine condition. The drill was followed by a hop in which of course our j representatives took a hand. - ~ ' ' " : \ - - . ' - " MHHHHMtfCfeflMfeNHflBBBHBBB&SSaflBBaEBBHB Xotick to Farmers.?We have been requested to invite the farmers of the county to meet here on the first Monday in July next to elect delegate to the State Agricultural Society which convene.; nf- svillrv S. (1.. an the Oth I of August. A large attondancc is desired, and as it may induce some to turn out who would otherwise be too busy, we take the liberty to suggest that the delegates elect wil! in all probability receive a free pass over the railroads. Tiik Cornet Band.?The Coruet Baud turned out again on Thursday evening and played for an hour to the delight of the entire town, and with much crcdit to itself. The rapid pro gress which has been made since its reorganization we have noted with the greatest pleasure. It is now fairly entitled to be pronounced a first class institution, and is just about as essential to the dignity and goud standing of the town as any other organization we have. Another Petition" for Executive Clemency.?Of all the cases of homicide tried at the last term of the Court for Lancaster county but one conviction was had, and this was the case of a negro convicted of the murder of a noorro. The inrv recommended the defendant to the mercy of the Court, and a petition for executive clemency has been forwarded to the Governor. The report of the Solicitor wili be favorable to the defendant and the Governor will doubtless commas his sentence, as he seems to be entitled to as much. A Circulating Library.?Mr. J. E. Barnhart, general agent for the Franklin Square Library Co., is in town making efforts to establish a circulating library here. We are certainly in need of just such an institution and we hone that he will be successful in founding the samce. His publications it is hardly needful for us to say are always well up to standard, and so vaneu us 10 suu mciasic 01 cvcryoouy. The plan upon which it is proposed to run the library seems to us to-be a very good one indeed. For (he small sum of one dollar any one can become a member ami read ad libitum. Mr. Barn hart is endorsed by leading men all over the country. All who arc fond of reading should avail themselves at once of this fine opportunity. ' POPCLAK POE-TIC POEMS."?This is the title of a book just published by Messrs. Elliott & Beezeley, of Philadelphai, and there seems litte doubt that the work will have an extensive sale. It is a collection of poems by standard authors, and the selections made bespeak the skill and.taste of the compiler, Prof. Frank McAlpme, who has already done literary work of this character, to the delight of numerous readers. "Poetic Pearls" is printed in clear type, upon line toned and highly calendered paper, and makes altogether a very handsome volume. The price of the look depends, of course, upon the style of binding. An agent of the publishers will shortly canvass Winnsboro for subscribers to the work?of whom we trust there will be very many. Ix the Trial Justice Court.?On Thursday the State vs. Sallie McCamie was tried. She was charged with breach of contract and found not guilty. The State vs. Daniel Dawson, col ored, was heard on the same day. He was cMrged with wife-beating, an offense that is now notoriously common. lie entered a plea of guilty, making at the same time ample apologies to Mrs. Daniel. He was sentenced to pay a fine of fifty cents and costs. On Saturday Ed. Brice was called upon to answer a charge of assault and battery. He pat up the plea of self ilefense and succeeded in making it ippear to the satisfaction of the court that the prosecutor was very much in need of a sound thrashing. He was accordingly found not guilty. Hyilexeal.?The Cleburne (Texas) Chronicle, of the 4th inst., announces the marriage, on Juue 2ud, ot Mr. Stephen D. Mobley and Miss Mattie George, the ceremony being.perfoi'iucd by the Rev. T. W. Erwin, former pastor of Scion Presbyterian church-of this place. The Chronicle adds: Mr. Mobley is a young man of sober and industrious habits and is one of Cleburne's most promising young' men. He is a native of Fairfield county, S. U.t but. came to Texas about ?even years ago. For a greater portion of the time he has been a resident of Johnson county, where he has a host of friends who esteem hhn as a 'true gentleman. Miss Mattie George is a beautiful and accomplished young lady, well known in the highest circlcs of Cleburne society. She is also a native of South Carolina, but has long resided m this city, and to know her is but to idmireher. Jurisdiction.?Judge Cothran is now holding under advisement a case winch raises the question of the jurisdiction of trial justice courts in petit [arcenv. It reminds us - that on the subject of jurisdiction generally these courts ai'e sometimes by no means clear. Speaking witb. a trial justice a few days since we were told how a little slip in this connection of a brother up in Chester county contributed to to the peace and dignity of the community. It seems that there was a negro boy arocuid who had little or no respect for ownership ot personal chattels. He had been before the court several times, and showing no signs of improvement he was at last hauled up and solemnly sentenced to be hung. After repeated promises that he would return he was allowed to go and say good-bye to his mother. It was never known whether he bid adieu to the old lady or not, but he practised no more in that neighborhood. The "Wrong Lock.?The mail bag from the south-bound passenger train on last Monday came to this postoffice with a kind of lock on it which had ! been called in by the Postoffice De-! partment two or three years ago. i Postmaster Egleston having returned ; all in his possession in obediencc to j the call found himself consequently ! without an appropriate key. The | A opening of this mail was therefore necessarily postponed. Business men who were looking for important letters of course felt some little annoyance, bnt other business men who are now dependent entirely upon the mails for information from their sweethearts wpi-p nnforfmintf]v wrontrht UD to a very high pitch of indignation and j would no doubt have lynched the mail agent whose negligence caused the trouble, if they could have caught np with him. The down train of Tuesday brought the postmaster a key and the wrath of the young fellows aforesaid was found to be utterly without warrant. Burked to Death.?A little negro girl living on the plantation of Mr. A. "VVilliford, two or three miles from town, was burned to dc .th on Thurs-! day. "While her parents were in the | field at work she attempted to light the fire with kerosene; the can exploded and she was enveloped in flames. In her terror she ran ofi, as is usual in j such cases. She was caught by some ! woman who happened to be near by, ' but not until she had been terribly ! burned. She died in the course of a i few hour4.. Her parents returned from ! the field in time to put out their burn* 1 ing house. Many people are in the ! habit of lighting their fires with kero-; sene, but the practice is bad even when ; the utmost caution is exercised, be- j cause children will do what they see their elders do before them, all in- j structions to the contrary norwith-j standing. When fire and kerosene are [ concerned the chances are more than ; even that the result will be calamitous., Lulu IIurst Again*.?The Chester j Bulletin pronounced Lulu Hurst a! a fraud, just as a number of people , here did. The "Georgia Wonder" is compared to a Mrs. Coleman, another j apostle of "peculiar'' force who had ; previously exhibited at Chester and it j is .Lulu who will prooaoiy complain 01 the odiousness of comparison. Mrs. | Coleman, says the Bulletin, performed ' more tricks and exhibited more skill; than the protege of the sarcastic Mr.j Atkinson. The Bulletin puts to flightI the ignis fatuus of an undiscovered j force in ihe face of the formidable i prejudgment of Mr. Atkinson, that any j explanation of the "mystery" would j be looked "upon as an hallucination of I a "brainless dude." This is an old j <i-Ir-l- r?f incror]f?rs_ it. is wnrfhv of the i l,4v" v4jmos*"^j -- ? ? j . ages of papal supremacy, bat like the charmed circle which Richileu drew | around De Moprat's wife, it has terrors for thinking men of to-day. It is now generally understood that the juggler is the fool and the more we i think of the matter the more we are convinced that there is uo reason for supposing that Atkinson is an exception to the rule. He is a dude of the | worst type. He is what the boys here j would call an "oyster." Personal.?J. M. McMaster, Esq., j of the Columbia bar, was in town on ! last Thursday, attending to professional bussiness. Mr. C. A. Douglass returned from ' Columbia on Thursday. He informs I us that his interview with Governor Thompson was very satisfactory. He requested the Governor to withhold his decision until he could submit further facts and papers bearing on the case. Mr. S. D. Dunn has returned from the Soutli Carolina College. Mr. C. H. Jordau has returned from Erskine College. Mr. Albert Merritt, of the South Carolina College, is in town visiting relatives. J. T. Barron, Esq., of the Columbia bar, was in town last Saturday,^on professional business. Miss Carrie Dunn returned on last Tuesday from Columbia, where she has been attending school. Messrs. Jas. A.Brice, T. H.Ketchin, Kobt. E. Brice, Mrs. R. C. Gooding and Mrs. Harvey Flenniken of town, and Mr. A. F. RufF and daughter, of Ridgeway, all left on Monday for Due "West to enjoy commencement exer- i cises. Frank Leslie's Sunday Magazine for July begins the eighteenth volume of this popular magazine with an interesting descriptive article ou "The Cathedral of the Incarnation" at Garden City, Long Islaud, with illustrations of the exterior and interior of the Cathedral, a view of St. Paul's school for boys, the See House, and a portrait of Bishop Littlejohn. Two more of the Parables of Christ is given ?"The Great Supper," and "The Lost Sheep"?the latter with an illustration. Dr. Talmage's sermon is on the "Noontide'of Life"; he contributes also a tender article on the late "Mrs. Samuel T. Speer"; and in the "Editorial Comments" he discusses the Threatened War in Asia, the Doctor, the Pedestal it.. t tko JLUi L11C OUUUU \JL uuu. HIV, kjlkk.^ j urday Half-holiday?all timely topics. J Indeed, the whole number has an unusually fresh and timely character. Among some of the more interesting miscellaneous articles arc "The Sacred Ganges," with three illustrations; and "The Martyrs ot the Bass," with two illustrations. The two serials, "Love's Harvest," by Farjeon, and "What She Made of her Life," by Mrs. Farmer, progress interestingly, and there are numerous short articles and poems, and a number of fine engravings. Published by Mrs. Frank Leslie, OS, oo and 57 Park Place, New York, at twenty-five cents a number, or ?2.50 a year, postpaid. Progressive Farming.?The agriricultural classcs arc profoundly conservative, they rarely rise above routine. Now and then we hear of a planter like^the late Farish C. Farman who brings about a method of "extensive farming," in which all energy is directed towards the improvement of tue quality of the soil. And again we hear of a farmer who achieves success by "diversified fanning," and by practicing what is known as "rotation" in planting, which is said to preserve the normal fertilizer of the soil. While botli of these methods are for the most part unusually attended with success bmmmbmm??a??maam they both ignore the truth that the j quality of the plant as well a3 that of the soil is susceptible of almost indefinite improvement, yet this is nevertheless a fact and it is one which the progressive farmer of the futnre will not fail to discover and utilize. The farmer complains that it will not rain i in .Tnlv and we are candid to admit j that progressive farming cannot avoid j this fact which sometimes asserts j itself disastrously to agricultural in| terest. But there may be such as a ! judicious ^selection of plants as will in j time produce a species that will defy , the drought of summer. After a dry | summer let the farmer go through his ! fields and select from such plants as | have best stood the strain of the ; drought and lei this plan be repeated j from year to year and the result will | be a complete avoidance of the much dreaded disasters of the rainless season. This is one of the ends towards which scientific agriculture must move, it is but a simple reoognition of a law that is fundamental to the organic world. Stock breeders improve their stock and farmers should improve their seed. It is Said That there is a lively demand for laborers in some sections of the comity; That there will soon be an abundance of fruit of every variety; That there were several picnics in the country last week; That the present is a busy season with the doctors; That there are some people in this community who think that a county paper should keep pace with the metropolitan daily. ITEMS Fit OH HORL'B. Messrs. Editors: Since the cotnmu-j ideation of our friend L>. in your la^t j week's issue, we have had n heavy rain, lasting about twelve hours of Tuesday night and Wednesday forenoon, the 9th and 10th inst., during which time fully an inch and a half of wafer fell. And sure enough the "General" has come to stay. Ah, so long! Most of the grain crop has been } reaped, but the reaping has not been bountiful in many places. I a.n credibly informed, though, that our neighbor, Mr. N. C. Robertson, has some fine oats. In some places considerable damage was done to the oats by the recent freshet. Our community has been called gain to mourning on account of the death of Mr. Thomas McKinstrv and Mrs. Margaret Armstrong, both aged and esteemed members of Bethel chur<?h. Uncle Mc. was for many years an official member, and was the superintendent of the Sabbath School for more than thirty years. He died at the residence oi his son-in-law, Mr. W. P. Gibson, on the 10th inst., in his seventy-seventh year,.and was buried in Bethel cemeteiy on the 11th. The pastor, the Rev. J. K. McCain,1 preached a solemn and appropriate, sermou on the occasion from the fol- j lowing text: "Let me die the death | of the righteous, and let my last end be like his." During the discourse the preacher said he had recently made a calculation and ascertained that at the rate of mortality -which has prevailed among his flock siuce he has been pas- f tor of Fairfield circuit it would only J take ten and a half years for the entire J membership (about 530) to pass away, j Mrs. Armstrong died on the 11th | and was also buried at Bethel on the j 12th inst. Her age was about seventy- j three. The sermon of the occasion! was preached it the family residence.' Large concourses of appreciative and sympathetic friends followed these dear aged Christians to their graves, where the beautiful and solemn burial service was read by the pastor and i LUC/il UVUiV-g ??\/i v vvuiuuiivu bv vuv | ground, "earth to earth, dust to dust, I ashes to ashes."

KING'S EVIL Was the name formerly given to Scrofula because of a superstition that it could be cured by a king's touch. The world is wiser now, and knows that SCROFULA can only be cured by a thorough purification of the blood. If this is neglected, the disease perpetuates its taint through - generation after generation. Among its earlier symptomatic developments are Eczema, Cutaneous Eruptions, Tu mors, Boils, Carbuncles, Erysipelas, Purulent Ulcers, Nervous and Physical Collapse, etc. If allowed to continue, Rheumatism, Scrofulous Catarrh, Kidney and Liver Diseases. Tubercular Consumption, and various other dangerous or fatal maladies, arc produced by it. flyer's Sarsaparilla Is the only powerful and ahcays reliable blood-purijying medicine. It is so effectual an alterative that it eradicates from the system Hereditary Scrofula, and the kindred poisons of contagious disuses and mercury. At the same time it enriches and Totalizes the blood, restoring healthful action to the vital organs and rejuvenating the entire system.

Its formula is generally known to the medical profession, and the best Ehysicians constantly prescribe Ayer's arsaparilla as an Absolute Cure For all diseases caused by the vitiation of the blood. It is concentrated to the highest practicable degree, far beyond any other preparation for which like effects are claimed, and is therefore the cheapest, as well as the best blood purifying medicine, in the world.
