JLUUkwUCkio i a*, ijan-^a?Tt ; o'clock, "Worthy Master J. X. Lips-1 comb presiding. The executive com- j inittee presented their report, which, npon motion, was referred to the appropriate committee. The committee on suggestions, for the good of the Order reported favorably a motion that a committee of three be" appointed at this meeting of the J State Grange who shall'be known as j the legislative committee, and who shall serve two years. Thar duty shall be to bring before the Legislature such matters as the State Grange shall direct and they shall point out and try to defeat all legislation calculated to injure the farmers of the State: and that ihe Worthy Master be added a> chairman, and that he bo authorized to call that committee together whenever j deemed necessary, and tlut their trav-1 elling expenses shall be paid out of the treasury of the State Gransre. This motion, on the recommendation of I the committee, was adopted. The same committee also reported informally on a resolution to raise the dues of the members of the Grunge from six to ten cents per quarter. The report was adopted. TTrmn th*? &ncrorpstimi i>f (.T "V Lipscomb, Col. A. P. Butler, the commis>ioner of agriculture, was invited to make a report of his department.

Eight hundred and sixty emigrants were brought to the State during the existence of the bureau at an average cost of ten dollars per man. Commissioner Butler further spoke of the large consumption of commercial fertilizers by the farmers throughout the State, which had ix-come of fertilizers had more to do with the success or failure of the crop than auv other factor. So much now depends upon the nseofhigh grade fertilizers | that the reports of the department I were coming more and tm>re in do-1 mand, and the fanners are realizing , more and more their usefulness and importance. He also spoke of the tisii j commission and what had been aocom- j plishedby it, and gave much interest-; ing information on the subject. The committue to whom the report of the executive commi:tce had been referred made their report on the same. This report was adopted with but few changes. An election to fill a vacancy in the executive committee of the State Grange, caused by the expiration "of Mr. Thornnsnn's term of office, wsuj held, and resulted it: the almost unanimous re-election of Mr. Thompson for the position.

The Worthy Master then called upon I the deputies who had been appointed; by the Grange at its last annual meet ing for the purpose of organizing new and reorganizing dormant Gianges for ! a report of their work during the past | year. This call was readily responded to, and the reports showed that considerable work had been dune in this field. Mr. Parrott, the chairman of the on business and unfinished business, stated that the only business that remained to be attended to was the selection of the place of the next annual meeting ot the Grange. Mr. Parrott moved that the iinvtiiig be held in Charleston. Mr. Woilord moved to amend so a* to read in Columbia. This amendment was adopted and Columbia was fixed as the place of meeting.

The.se two ! , men stoic upon deck one night and armed with knives lushed to poles ati:?cked Uvo officers, killing them instantly. Three sailors, the only ones on deck, were quickly dispatched. Capt. Clark, hearing the shrieks of the crew, rushed 011 deck in his night shin. The Manillaus sla>hed him terribly and he barely escaped with his I life. After a desperate struggle he 1 broke away from his assailants and, rushing to his cabin, loeked him.?elt in. The Manillaus battened down the hatchcs and kept the captain and crew below deck one day and night. The captain finally fired through the skylight at one of the mutineers and wounded him in the thigh. The man rushed to the side of the vessel and leaped overboard.

The officer so commanding the soldiers was instruct- co t'd not to give the fatal signal till the plate was exposed.

The Success an Atlanta Article has Achieved iu the Lone Star State. ' We Live and Permit Others to Exist." Dexter, Texas, March 15, 1885 Blood Balm Co.: It is a great pleasure to us to state to you that your B. B. B, takes the lead of all blood purifiers in this country, on account of the cures it has effected since we have handled it. We had a case of scrofula in our neighborhood, of long standing, who had used all patent medicines which were recommended to him; besides this, he als*> had several doctors attending him, but everything failed to effect any good. He grew \v?rse every day, and had not iefE his bed for the last six months. We had seen him several times in our little town, though it has been more than fiit-en months>ince we la>?t saw him, and we suppose this was the last time he was able to come to town, as he lives about ei^ht miles in the country. Ilis name is Servenka, and we got a neighbor of his to persuade him to try I>. B. B , and after using only one bottle he left his bed for the fir-t time in six months. To the present time he has used less IIIUU WIH'C UUlliCS, <UiU u<r !.-> tiuntwig around visiting his friends in the neighborhood. He has gained strength and flesh rapidly. All scrofulous sores are healing finely," and you never saw a happier man than lie is." Nearly everybody for miles around lias heard oi this wonderful cure,, and ail who need a b'ood remedy call for the B. 13. II. We had a case of nasal catarrh in our own family (a little girl of four years old), who has been using B. B. B. for about two weeks, and already seems to be about well. I We have onlv three bottles left, and want von to ship us six dozen botties. We" take pleasure in recommending B. B. B. as a medicine worthy of the entire jonfidence of the. public.
