different parts of town for placing the

bay is made, glad thereby. Two advertising
cars will arrive to-day.
?The Improved High-Arm Davis
Sewing Machine. The best in the
market. No family should be without
one. Every machine warranted and
sold on its own merits by J. O. Boag.*
?We call attention to the advertisement
of P. Laudecker & Bro. They
have recently received their new stock
of goods, and are prepared to famish
goods at living prices. Give him a
* call.
?The stock-raisers of Oconee, Pickens
and Anderson counties, challenges
the State to an exhibit of blooded colts, i
If quality and not numbers is made the i
test, Fairfield would have no cause to
blush for her specimens.
?In New England and other northern
portions of the country snow has
already fallen, it was nearly cold
enough for frost in this latitude on
Thursday morning and many people
resorted to fires for comfort.
?Mr. U. G. Desportes has erected
in the lot adjoining his store a fine pair
of Fairbanks scales. They are covered
by a handsome shed, ana will add
much to the facility or weigmng iu
town. We are glad to note such
enterprise iu our town.
?The county treasurer will start on

?Ah effort will doubtless be made at
the next meeting of the Legislature, to
form the new county of Saluda from
portions of Edgefield and Lexington.
Congressman Tillmau is said to be
greatly in favor of the scheme.
?There was*an eclipse of the moon
on Thursday morning, but we venture
to say that not a half dozen people in
town thought of it. Taking place at
two o'clock or thereabouts few would
have witnessed it any way, but how
many people thought about it?
?Fairfield only sent one representative
to the penitentiary at the term of
the Court just completed. The otner
convictions were for minor offences,
and the fines were paid up. We think
this a pretty good record for any
county.
?Don't foaget to come in and settle
with the newspaper when you sell
yoar cotton. Remember we have tried
to furnish you with the county and
State news, and expect, that in return,
we will get the little difference between
us.
?We were glad to sec Mr. Orchard
on our streets on Friday. He is canvassing
for the Columbia Register,
and will furnish letters to that paper
on his travels in upper South Carolina.
'Vo wish him mnoh in the in
^ teros^of tfaafc excellent journal.
?Quite a number of friends gathered-at
tfee Wmnsboro Hotel onThurs- i
day afternoon to witness the marriage j
of Mr. Sumter Davega, of Chester,;
arid Miss Cannon, of Aikeu county.
The ceremony was performed by the j
Rev. -John Gass. After a pleasan I
time in town they returned to Chester ;
on Friday's train.
?Passengers on the south-bound
passenger train report ibat just as the
train was entering town' several small
boys shot af it with sling-shots. It so
happened that no one was injured, but
this. is.a very dangerous practice, and
we take, this occasion to. warn small
boys that fhere is a stringent law upon
this point and they had better take
warning accordingly.
?It will be gratifying to the citizens
of the county to learn that Mr. William
Ederington contemplates issuing at an
early date "Reminiscences of Faifield."
Mr." Ederington is one of the oldest
ckizens of the county, and his excellent
memory has enabled him to keep well
posted on its history. Mr. Ederington
wields a facile pen and his work will
doubtless be rich in anecdotes of men
and things of a past day and genera
tion.
?The store of MeCarley & (Jo. has
recently gone through a course of
repairs. It has received a coat of
paint, which adds very much to the
appearance of the building, and is also
quite an addition to the attractions of
that portion of town. We hope the
good example set by MeCarley & Co.
will have a beneficial effect upon other
portions of town and excite other merchants
to an improvement of their
stores.
?A mule while hitched in front of a
dwelling in Monticello was attacked
by a nest of humble bees. Twentyeight
of them fsstened upon him which
caused him to run wild around the
premises. In his agony he rushed
into the house and the inmates as
quickly rushed out. Finally he was
caught and rubbed off. The mule was
severely stung, and consequently was
as big as an elephant a few minutes
ofterterward.

Death.?"We have just been informed
of the death of Mrs. Nancy Ferrill,
of the Jackson Creek section, which
occurred on the night of the 24th. It
seems that she had received a fall a
few days prior to her death, and re
ceived serious injuries, but she died of
paralysis which was supposed to have
been caused by the fall. She was
about seventy years old. The family
and friends have our sympathy in their
affliction.
Personal.?Miss Helen "VVardlaw,
of Abbeville, is visiting her sister Mrs.
J. G. McCants.
Mr. A. T. Hamilton, of Rome, Ga.,

have gone to Limestone Springs?Miss
Pet to visit friends, and Miss Mary to
enter the Female Institute at place.
Work of the Gin .?Mr. Daniel
Hall, Jr., while attending a gin on last
Saturday, was the victim of a very
serious accident. His hand by some
unaccountable means was drawn
among the saws and his right band and
arm was very badly cut up to the
elbow. He, at last accounts, was
doiDg very well. His hand, however,
witt probably be of no more service to
liim. This is the second accident of
this nature that has come to our
knowledge in the county since the
season commenced.
OiSTERS.?The Celebrated Norfolk
Oysters, of the James and Covington
Rivers of Virginia, will be received
fresh every three days, and sold at
lowest prices possible at the Wiunshnrr?

Hard ox the Council.?The advance
agent of the circus was in town a few
days ago making preparations, and
among other things done, he called on
the council to see what the license
would be. The regular ordinance
license is fifty dollars, but considering
the stringency of money matters, they
decided to reduce it to thirty dollars

among themselves, (however,
not known to the agent) that a liberal
number of "dead head'7 tickets would
bedealtout. Imagine their surprise,and
'wc suppose disappointment, when the
agent thanked them for the favor, but
failed to mention any thing about free
tickets. The council ought to be better
np to tricks.
A Tournament for the Faik.?A
-letter has been received by a gentleman
of town, trom a young man of
"Union, who writes at the sugestion of
the President of the South Carolina
A onr? rnr?a 1
to sec what can be done towards get-1
ting up a tournament, as one of the
attractions of the State Fair. If rifty j
kuights ride, the association proposes
to give ?200 to be divided as luilows:
50 per cent, to the first, 25 per cent, to
the second, 15 per cent, to the third,
and 10 per cent, to the fourth. There
will be an entrance fee of $5. The
letter mentioued above was written to
see how many knights could be secured
from this county. It would be quite
an additional attraction to have a tournament,
and if the requisite number
can be mf.de up,onr county shold be represented.
We are informed that if the
number is made up, the horses will be
transported free, and suitable stables
will be furnished by the authorities in
charge. Any names left at this office
will be forwarded to the proper
authorities.
Deatii of Mk. G. L. Huey.?Our
community was quite shocked by the
announcement of the death of Mr.
G. L. Huey, which occurred a little
after one o'clock on "Wednesday afternoon.
He had been quite unwell for a
couple of weeks, but no serious results
were at all apprehended. He
was much better on Sunday?sufficiently
so as to be aboitt?but on Monday
he suffered a relapse. He showed no
very serious symptoms till Tuesday,
from which time he grew rapidly
worse till be breathed Ills last. Mr.
Huey had just reached manhood, and
he seemed to have the promise of a
long life before him. Up to his last
illness his general health had been excellent,
and he was of quite vigorous
constitution. He was the sou of Mr.
M. M. Huey, and a brother of Mr.
R. M. Huey, a well known merchant
ol' this place. He was a clerk in the
establishment of Messrs. McMaster,
Brice & Ketchin, and was highly
esteemed by employers and customers
alike. He bore a most excellent char"
? - i u:?
acicr witH an wno suuw mm. vm
down on the very threshold of strong
manhood, his death is indeed a very
sad one. The heartiest sympathies of
our community go out to the bereaved
family.
The funeral of Mr. Ilucy took place
at the Associate Reformed church on
Thursday afternoon and was attended
by a large concourse of people. lie
was buried with military honors by
the Gordon Light Infantry, of which
he was a member.
THE CIRCUIT COUJtT.
The following is a synopsis of the
eases tried heard in the Court of Common
Pleas since our last report:
The first civil case tried was tiwt 01
Saml. Eglcston vs. W. K. Doty & Co.?
action for $125 damages for the unsoundness
of a mule sold the plaintiff
by defendant^. Messrs. McDonalds &
Douglaas for plaintiff, Messrs. Douglass
& McCants for the defendants.
The defences set up were, that the
plaintiff's cause of action had been
determined in a previous suit between
the parties, and that the mule was not
warranted. The jury found for the
plaiutiff $75. Defendants' counsel
gave notice of a motion for a new trial.
Hilliaru J, Gayden vs. A. Williford
& Sons?Messrs. McXeel & Henry for
the plaintiff, Messrs. McDonalds &
Douglass for the defendants. The
plaintiff claimed $350 damages for a
breach of warranty in a horse trade.
He stated that he got from the defendants
a horse, which they warranted
to be altogether sound, and to
be a fair saddle-horse and a firs-tratc
buggy animal; that ?oon after getting
it hh found it was not as represented,
and he returned it to defendants; that
deiendants, claiming that the horse
had been foundered through plaintiffs
improper treatment, undertook to cure I
the trouble; that he again got the animal,
but upon trial he found it unfit
for his use and returned it, at the same
time demanding his own horse, given
in the trade, but defendants refused to
surrender it. The defendants, on t heir
part, claimed that the horse they traded .
to the plaintiff was altogether as they
represented it, and that it was fonndeaed
by the improper treatment of
the plaintiff. The jury found for the
plaintiff $220. Defendants' counsel at
once gave notice of a motion for a new
trial, on the ground of after-discovered
Weston C. Bookman vs. The Charlotte,
Colnmbia & Augusta Kail read
Company?Mr. O. W. Buchanan for
plaintiff, Col. Rion for defendants.
The Plaintiff claimed $200 damage for
the failure of the defendant Company
to ship a certain circular saw which
he had delivered to the agent Mr.
Creight, consigned to the Atlanta Saw
Works. Mr. Creight stated that when
the saw came, it occurred to him that
he might do the plaintiff (or his brother
Mr. A. G. Bookman, whom he supposed
to be the real sender) a kindness,
and save him something, by himself
having the saw repaired; that he
did so repair the saw, and put it in
good condition; that he did ship the
saw to Atlanta, about a week orter it
was nnf. in the denot. The defence
also undertook to 9ho\v that the saw, [
as repaired by Mr. Creight was in
good working order. The jury found
for the Plaintiff twenty-five dollars..
David Boyd vs. The Rock Hill Methodist
Church?Messrs. Ragsdale &
Ragsdale for plaintiff, Messrs. Gaillard
& lleynolds for defendants. The
plaintiff claimed a balance of abont
eighteen dollars, on a contract to do
certain repairs on the church building
of the defendants. The defencc was
was that the plaintiff had no: completed
the work according to his bargain.
The jury found a verdict for the plaintiffin
the sum of $17.50.
"\V. R. Doty & Co. v*. Alfred Dunn
?action to recover a mule and a horse
?Messrs. Douglass & McCants for
plaintiffs, Messrs. Ragsdale & Ragsdale
and C. A. Douglass for the defendant.
Sealed verdict.
On Thursday morning the case of
William s. Rnhinson vs. The Charlotte,
Columbia and Augusta Railroad Company
came up for trial. This was an
action to recover damages from the
Company for injuries received by Mr.
Robinson last November. The facts
as adduced by the witnesses for the
plaintiff were that he got on the rail|
road track near Ridgeway to catch his
mule, which had run off and had gone
down the road. The mule met the
up freight train and turned to come
back, and it was met by Mr. Robinson,
who succeeded in getting the
mule off the track, but as he attempted
to get off himself he was struck by the
~^ on/1 VOOfttVoH
cross'uur ui tin# tttivA AvwiTwt
painful and serious injuries. The
plaintiff proved that no effort was
made by the engineer to stop his train,
and that if he had made an effort he
could have gotten off uninjured. The
plaiutiff was represented by Messrs.
McDonalds & Douglass, the Company
by Col. Rion. At the conclusion of
the plaintiff's testimony, defendant's
counsel moved for a nonsuit, on the
ground of contributory negligence,
and that the injuries received were
from plaintiff's carelessness. The motion
for a non-suit was granted.
The next case called was that of
*** 'r mi- _
T. Jc\ lounginer vs. xue uuuuu ui
Faii-field. This was an actiou to recover
the value of a mule killed 011 the
highway of the defendant by reason of
an alleged dcfect in said highwuy.
Messrs. Ragsdale & Ragsdale repre
sented the plaintiff and Messrs. Gaillard
& Reynolds the defense. The
jury found for the defeudant.
The first case called for trial on Friday
was that of. Robert Stevenson and
Samuel Stevenson vs. John M. Galloway
& Co. This was an action to recover
damages of the defendants for
aa alleged unlawful seizure of a mule
belonging to the plaintiffs, who are
infants. The defendants alleged that
they had released a lien on the crop to
more than the value of the mule, and
+ n.no (tini'nfripn o r>nnfr9(>f ffH*
mat 10 u ao buvivivtu v?..v? v.v? .. ?
necessaries. Messrs. Gaillard & Iley
nolds represented the plaintiffs, and
Messrs. McDonalds & Douglass the
defendants. The jury reudered a verpict
for the defendants.
This was the last case for the consideration
of the jury and they were
discharged.
The case of the Continental Insurance
Company of New York vs. G. P.
Hoffman was heard by the Court. The
decision of the Court was reserved.
Friday and Saturday was taken
up by the Court of Common Pleas in
passing orders, hearing motions and
