The explosion was the resnlt of unavoidable accident. It is rumored that the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta Railroad will change hands at an early day. It is now under the control ot the Richmond & Danville Syndicate, and it is thought that the Atlantic Coast Line would like to get control of it. ?neacronr advertising columns, anu besides finding what the merchants are selling, yon will find nearly five thousand acres of land advertised for sale ! on Monday.

We are not informed whether the other Fairfield -delegates were present at the caucus or not. ?It is rumored that if the President vi o wu?u ua T V wuivu wuv j "important business," which called him to Columbia to a successful termination, that the club would have been called upon to elect a new President :as "Barkis warn't willing," the event has been indefinitely postponed. ?The county treasurer informs us that nearly all of the taxes for Fair(vinntv Vu?pt?

The negro offers to secura the mer-' chant by giving him a mortgage on j two turkey gobblers and an old hen. This is a good indication of the hard times. ?It is rumored that the postoffice will again be established in the Thespian Hall buiiding, one door west of the ladies waiting room. The change as far as we have been able to learn i will meet the hearty approval of the business men of Winnsboro, as the | present stand has many objections j which it is not worth while to mention j besides the new office will be more | convenient to most parties. ?From our Information on the sub- i ject, York county seems to be keenly { alive to the importance of railroad ' building.

He was also bound over for trial at ( :he next term. Death.?We regret to learn of the , ieath of Mr. Walter C. Yongue. Mr. < Yongue was brother-in-law of Captain Boyles, Judge of Probate of Fairfield ;ounty, and the youngest son of Mrs. 1 Frances Yongue, also of this county. He had been attending the Leesville Academy, and the first intimation the ( family had of his illness was the an- . nouncement of his death, and a tele- ; gfram stating that the body would be brought up on Friday's train. Mr. ' Yongue was in his nineteenth year. ; We extend to the bereaved family our sympathy in their trouble. Another Tramp. ?On last Tuesday night another tramp applied to Mr. : Gilbert for a night's lodging in the town hotel. He was accordingly given quarters for the night, after Mr. Gilbert had observed closely a bag which he said contained his clothes. The next morning when his door was opened, Mr. Gilbert noticed that his clothes bag had grown considerably larger daring the night, and an iirvestigation revealed the fact that ?ne of the blankets had in some mysterious way gotten into his clothes bag. He was after the examination sent on his 1 way rejoicing. Public Sales.?On Monday last, being sales-day, the Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas sold the followingmentioned property: In the case of Gooding; & Elliott vs. John Lee, a tract or 2U acres, oounaea by lands of April Russell and others, bought by Mrs. Lillie E. McDonald, for $125. In the case of A. F. Raff vs. S. J. Joiner, Administrator, and Others, a ( tract of 224 acres, bounded bv lands of John Cooper, Sr., and others, bought by A. F. Ruff, for $200. In the case of Margaret M. Yongue vs. Nancy Yongue and Others, a tract of 442 acres, bounded by. lands of R. M. Stevenson and others, to Mrs. Nancy Yongue, for $3,090. Mr. J. A. Turkelt, as executor of the ..will of Turner Turkett, sold a tract of land, containing 265 acres, founded by lands of J. Russell Black and others, to Jacob Frick, for $1,025. The Sheriff sold no land, but sold, as agent for different parties, quite a number of mules. Circulating Lkjrary.? Mrs. G. L. Morgan, general agent of the Franklin Square Library Company, of Louisville Ky., is now in "Winnsboro, for the purpose of organizing a Circulating Library among the resident! of the town. The plau is to procure fifty members, who pay a fee of one dollar each. For the sum of fifty dollars, made up in this way, the Company propose to furnish seventy books, to be selected from their catalogue. This catalogue embraces works of the standard authors, and in many cases one book contans several stories or other matter of good reading. For two rtaoEy i *>< m> ggna??P?gatf* years the Company furnish a place i frw flin KAAL- omnlnr a I \J I UUUVCIl iVi UiV/ WUVrtj U1IU ? librarian for the same term.

It has no reference to Thanksgiving, but to the annexation of Iloumclia by the Prince of Bulgaria. This unexpected seizure of another bit of Turkey, and the events that have followed, | required explanations. In tuis article Mr. Oscanvan, formerly Turkish consul-general, thoroughly versed in the system of Oriental rule, gives a clear view of the Province and its people, as well as of Bulgaria. "The Shakers in Niskayuna" is a sketch by a lady of that curious community accompanied by a fine series of illustrations. "The Story of Napoleon Bonaparte's Divorce from the Empress Josephine" is told by Noel Ruthven in a way to excite the reader's warmest sympathy with the amiable lady whom a husband's ambition compelled to descend from her throne. Waller S. Bailtie describes and illustrates a little known part of our hemisphere in his attractive "Glimpsesof South Brazil"; while Lieutenant Winder, of the Navy, carries us back to the days of Robinson Crusoe, in his "Rescue of Trinity's Crew"?the story- of the crew of an American vessel lost on. a rarely visited island in the.Antarctic Ocean. Ackroyd's scientific article on "Whirlpools and Whirlwinds" explains the origin of those deadly forces in nature which so frequently compel us to record their destructive ravages. The lighter elemeuts in the magazine, the fine illustrations, the stories of Mrs. j E. B. Duftey, C. M. Boutelle, R. C.

Oar granite industry is looming up. A. very large number of hands are now busily engaged at the "Winnsboro Granite Quarries," owned by Messrs. Haskell, Woodward & Rion. We have always supposed this granite to be very fina, and have heard that ' * J iU. sxperis nave pronouuceu uiw muuc w be the best in America. The following letter, written by the lion. Thos. Gr. Clemson, a graduate of the Polytechnic School of France, and the only American who ever filled a professor's 2hairin the School of Mines of France, md besides for many years very high Authority ou all mines and quarries in America and Europe, confirms us in Dur opinion that Fairfield has a very valuable industry in its irrauite. The letter was written on receipt of a, paper weight sent him by his friend Uol. Rion: Fort IIill, 26th Nov. 1885. Dear Colonel: I have yours with the beautiful paper weight of granite. It is not often that you meet in nature with a variety of that ancient rock in which the different minerals are so equally divided as in this specimen. If all of your rock presents such properties, you may look upon yourself as being possessed of a material that is indestructible with all the natural acting agents as far as we know, which are defiant. Usually the felspar found in granite (one of. the constituents) is unlike this, destructible to the atmospheric agents. The two others (quartz and amphibole) are also indestructible in (his specimen. I donbt if a more indestructible material could be found than you have in this material. Your polished granite must go into use for house furniture; indeed, I do not see for what use it could be placed, in which it would be misplaced. My people on seeing it said?How beautiful for covering to bureaus, bath tubs, tile for flooring, ad infinitum Yours. T. G, Clemsox. FROJf MORRIS CREEK. The stillness and quiet that formerly j reigned about Granite Hill no longer ; exists, bnt have given place to the sound of the saw and hammer, and the constant clicking and clattcring of drills aud dressing chisels; and this from early dawn to twilight gray. The Nashville Company have gone to work in earnest. They are preparing our fine blue granite forbu;lding a government house in Louisville, Ky.?the building to serve as a custom-house ^nd postoffice. Mr. Stewart is here himself, and has, as I learn, more than thirty persons already at work. If our people will not develop our own resources we welcome with pleasure those who will come and do this for us. The Palmetto State will not only take pleasure in contributing to her younger sister such an ornament for her noblest city, bnt will also take pleasure in having in the far Northwest such a standing advertisement of the excellency and beauty of her building stone. Thus while our section of Fairfield may not boast of the fertility of her lands, she may boast of the excellency of her granite, perhaps the best in the United States. But I promised in my last to say something in regard to our schools, or rather iu regard to diverse views in respect to some of their regulations. It would be well for our people generally to have a clearer understanding of the operations of our public school-system, especially as it would lead to less caviling and to more uniformity of action. Some, for iustance, have as serted that the trustees of our schools have the right to appoint teachers for them, irrespective of the will of the patrons; that the latter have no voice in saying who shall teach their children: making the children during school age the property, not of the parents, but of the State, just as the laws of Lycurgus did the Spartan youth. I have heard others affirm, with equal confidence, that the patrons alone had the right to select a teacher, the trustees having nothing to do with ?^a^i it. How is this? Another apple of discord. Does the same grade certificate command the same uniform C".V throughout onr county? it in any particn'-- : ship? ' :- !C3- tr -.-j,." more. - necessary 10 law) before a teacliuraw bis pay? Or are teachers who have ten scholars paid the same as those who have thirty or more? Now, Messrs. Editors, as few have a r-nnv of the school law. and as vonr paper is extensively read in ?or county, I hope it will be your pleasure to oblige many by putting these questions at rest. I believe it would be wise to enforce our school laws uniformly, and to the letter, so long as they remain in force; and if they are bad laws, unworthy of being strictly enforced, let them" be repealed. Morris Creek. ?"We don't have to recommend Parker's Hair Balsam but once," writes Mr. C. A. Burger, druggist, of Liberty, N. Y. "After that it stands on its record." It stops falling hair, restores original color, softness and gloss. Exceptionally clean, prevents dandruff. ' * BUSINESS NOTICES.
