Thus the workings of the bureau assume a serious aspect. Since this venerable subject of beginning a conversation is thus given a back scat we trust, however, that no one just entering society will become in the least discouraged. ?Mrs. Henderson under the Wiuusboro Hotel will keep a full line of Apples, Bananas, Oranges, Cabbage, etc., on hand.

Ou Wednesday last at the residence of Mr. J. W. Brown, Mr. James Brown was united in wedlock to Miss Mary^Langford. The Rev. Mr. Hai tin officiating. /"V.. 1 ho rrin-linncn v?/ii r i iuav uv uiiiiig iuv gin uwmvv belonging' to Mr. W. J. Rains on Cedar Creek, with one thousand pounds of seed cotton and one hundred bushels cotton seed, was consumed by fire. This is the second ginhou:c Mr. Rains has lost in three years. lie estimates his loss at five hundred dollars. How the fire originated is not defiinitelv known, bat the supposition is that ignition was produced by matches that had been placed in some seed cotton. Our wide-awake and enterprising young merchant, Mr. W. J. Johnson, has just returned from the Northern markets, where has been purchasing a large and splendid stock of goods for his store in Lancaster. Blythewood will have a telegraph office in a few days. The management of the office will be conducted bv Mr. W. (r. Hailey, of Virginia. Very much to the regret of the entire community, Capt. J- L. Wardlaw and family left on Wednesday for their residence in the country. On the Rev. J. K. McCain's last services at Pine Grove, the Sunday| school presented him with a pai rofj gold eyeglasses. As it was quite a surprise, he could hardly find words j adequate to express his thanks. They were presented by the Sunday-school superintendent, Mr, J. AV. Robinson. On Sunday the Rev. J. K. McCain preadied his farewall sermon at Pine Grove to a very good congregation, notwithstanding the day was very unpropitious. At the conclusion of the service the Juvenile Society "Palmetto Leaves", assembled in Pine Grove Academy and after reading, repeating some verses of Scripture and singing, the "mite" boxes were opened and the j amounts showed that they had not ! been idle during the year. The school at Doko was resumed again Monday, with Mrs. Clara Jones Principal. Mr. Preston Blair and wife, of Monticello, have been spending several days with relatives on Cedar Creek. Or. Saturday Mrs. McCabe was so unfortunate as to have a mule killed by the train. A daughter of Mr. Sherrell came near meeting with a serious accident one day last week. While standing near the fire her dress came in contact witli the blaze, and had it not been for the timely assistance of her father, there is no telling what the result mignt have been. Mr. Sherrell had his hands badly burned while attempting to extinguish the flames. There is an old gentleman, I suppose I might say an octogenarian, living on Cedar Creek, who has raised a large family, and neither he, his wife, nor either of his seven daughters has ever ridden a mile on the cars. We heat- several persons complaining of losing hogs with some disease supgpsed to be cholera. Colds are prevalent in this section since the bad weather began, with this exception the health of the community is ecumenically good. x. VIEWS OS FARMING. Messrs. Editors: I noticed in your issue of the 1st inst. an article with fliic confirm "Snnpraimnated ws.'juv ? , enile, Watchman Spivins," which he says is "in answer to the many inquiries and suggestions made by *W. E.' and 'Watchman Spivins,'" In this attempt, as he calls it, he has given his readers some good counsel as to the inodus operandi of improving and reclaiming our worn-out and impoverished land?, that he omitted in his last article, and which "Superannuated" called the attention of his readers to this desideratum. As to the labor question, he replies to Mr. Spivins by disagreeing with him as to foreign labor being the most available on our Southern farms. In this I agree with him. He remarks, "Give me 'cuffy' always on the farm." Now here, Messrs. Editors, he omitted another important item, viz., "and with my labor alongside with him, we together with a good male or horse, with favorable seasons, can produce a remunerative crop both of corn and cotton, as well as small grain, etc. Juvenile never said a word about helping 'cliffy' to work, the greatest desideratum of the present idle aye. If you don't work alongside with "cufFy" he will not leave half a stand of cotton, and will skin what little he leaves; it he plows, he will gall the shoulders of his mule by not tying the harness tight, and does not care whether the jvuimal is half fed or 1' ?? 1 TT-ofwill | steal halt the corn to. feed hi9 hog in the-pen. In fine, "cuffv" requires a: superintendent on the farm or he will make miserable work of it; besides, he cannot lay off the rows horizontally, nor lay olf proper hillside ditches, 01* form terraces to prevent our hills from washing, without the aid of the white man. My advice to all young men, not advantageously employed, is to try farming for one year at least, and if they employ negro labor to work with it, it will cure them of dyspepsia and hyposterics, if they are tormented with those annoyiDg maladies and prevent a great many bad habits; besides they will thereby gain a competency and live an independent life, with an acquitted conscience. Is this not enough? I was required, with my uiuui UIULLICIS, LU jauur tiJ,y i father's slaves from the age of twelve to eighteen when not at school, and afterwards 011 my own account to the age of twenty-three. I conducted a farm altogether for forty-five years, and should know of what I am writing; and as an aged and respected farmer said to me not long before his death, "experience is the best teacher," so I have found it nntil now an octogenarian. Half our farming lands need rest and so let half of our colored population seek Western and Southern homes, besides there is but little bread and meat here for the other half. Let the white men labor as I did when able. If they heed not my counsel, I can enjoy an appeased conscience, as having done my duty. With these desultory remarks, I will leave my readers "to their own conclusions, perhaps not to appear again on the fore going subjects, if any, in print, "w. e. P. S. Let tne remind the readers of this article again to subscribe to mv "Reminiscences of Fairfield County." ggLyles Ford, Dec. 8,1385. w. e. A Real Necessity. We presume there is hardly a lady to be found in our broad land who, if she does not already possess a sewing machine, expects some day to becorac the owner of one. Bat after the mind has been fully made up to purchase one of these indispensable articles, the question arises as to what kind of a machine to buy. It should be so simply constructed that the most inexperienced can sue cesslullv operate it. The other points mainly to be considered, and which are the most desirable, are durability, rapidity, capacity for work, ease of operation, regularity of motion, uniformity of tension, and silence while in operation. The "Light-Running New Home" fills the above requirements, and is said to combine the good points of all sowing machines, with the addition of many new improvements and laborsaving devices. The price is no higher than that of other machines, and every lady who is the happy possessor of one may rest assured she has indeed a treasure. Cnrt o^TTAt?fioAnnAnf nf T?

Abraham Hare, Druggist, Bellville, Ohio, affirms: "The best selling medicine I bave ever handled in my twenty years' experience, is Electric Bitters."
