A Large and Enthusiastic Meeting?The Order ou a Ileum?A Hint to Farmers About Insurance. . The Grand Lodge of this Associa 110:1 met iu uoiuuioia on n i-uuu?ua\, the loth inst., and it was the largest and most enthusiastic meeting tli'3 body ii:i:> ever hud. The Order is booming in mo?t parts t-f (lie State, not only in theluigr cities but in tlie -rmu.11 towns. The Loilgc in the small town of Clinton too!: the prize for the largest increa?c in membership, and the L">dge at Westminister, a mere country place, is ih-tf-nnincd to gel it next year. These lodgvs and maty ottieis are increased by the introdnciion ot'l members from tl.e farming population around, and these aie the very men who ought to gj into ir, for there t'.iry get the cheapest insurance po^vible. Why should not farmers insure their j lives as well as others? Two fnnilks | of farmers have been greatly relieved j by membership in our lodge hero in ; Winnsboro ami why might not others? The Order is perfectly safe lor all time to come for it now numbers more than 130,000 ami i* constantly increasing, : notwithstanding the losses by death and suspension?. It is conducted on simple, practical and honest business principles. N t?ne dollar of assessment money U allowed to go in:o speculation of any k:nd, not even to help pay the necessary expense* of the Order, but every dollar gors to the \ relief ot the families ot the dcccased j members. Not a cent of i: is allowed to go fur postage even. The Gra.ul Lodge of South Carolina j is in the best of hands. The six promi- j nent offices of the Grand Lodsre of I | S.

Tlie care which the Grand j Lodge exercises in the selection of its | officers is a good voucher for the security of its members at large. What is the matter with our people that the Lodge at AVinnsboro don't grow and increase as the lodges in other similar places'' Are they too poor? That is the very reason they ought to go into it. for in it insurance is at the least cost, and if it so hard for you to support your family, how will that family be supported if death should take you away from it. A word to the wise is sufficient. j. >. < . For nearly half a century Ayer's Cherry Pectoral has been tlie most popular e?u?"h remedy in the world.

Tt" there are any two days in the year, before which in the eyes of the i citizens of Winnsboro the Fourth of .Inly and Washington's birthday dwin; die into nothingness, it is inspection I day. and the Gordon pic-nio day. We cannot truthfully say promptly . on time, but as promptly as possible on Monday afternoon the Gordons, lifry strong, with only 011c man absent ' i (ami lie would hare been there if i possible), marched to the College : Green 10 pass through what everybody i thought would be a trying ordeal, i With a large number of raw recruits, ! and having had a very short and un! expected notice from the Adjutant ; General to prepare for inspection, mid j then having the time granted, shori as j it was. made still shorter by the orders | of (ien. (Jreely in command of the j weather department of this grand i nation, the officers of the company, as ; well as the men themselves, would j have been more than men had they not I felt some misgivii. s as to the result I J of their evening's work. But if (Jen. | ! Greely or General, Colonel or Captain ; anybody cl.se thought they would I catch <>ur Gordons napping, they were i left, and that very badly. The company. 011 arriving at the 1 green, promptly got into position, and 1 after a little preliminary drilling, at j the command of the Adjutant General, "pas., your command in review," 1 j marched past the inspecting officer! i with the steady step of veterans. | Gen. Farley was satisfied, and pro-! ' ceded to inspect the arms and eqilip-: ; incuts, which lie did very carefully. : lie found nothing contraband in the ; : cartridge boxes because ' they ain't j i built that way," we presume. General Farley thought the thing j j was over with, but Capt. Jordan : ! thought lie would let thebovs out "just 1 j a little bit." and proceeded to give ! Gen. Farley a small s;ze<t exhibition of | what they *ould dy?sort of a sample i as it were. The evening was warm, | I * j and Capt. Jordan, ever merciful to his j j liion.

It must have j j done Capt. Jordan's heart good, and j rewarded him for his many years of j I service to this command. Of course wc do not intend to convey the""idea | that everything- was perfect, but when | the raw men are taken into considcraj tion and the short time given for prei paration, it was a line exhibition, and j the citizens, who take such interest | and pride in the company, arc satisfied. Gen. Farley was provided with a I line saddle horse, and Mr. Q. P. Willi-; i .w?itii?<1 to Met :i> lils Aide on this ! occasion. lie expressed himself on j the lichl as highly pleased %viii? ihej company and agreeablv surprised, i though he had heard a groat deal about their past reputation. At nine o'clock the company, with j several invited guests, assembled at | the armory to partake <>f a spread that war? given in honor of the visit of i (Jen. Farley. The room was brilliant- ; ; ly lighted, and a table spread, with , seats for about sixty-live persons, and was well laden with "produceinents" furnished bv our well known caterer, , F. Vv\ Ilabernicht. ; Capt. Jordan sat at the head of the : table and presided with his accustomed skill and grace. Gen. Farley sat at , his right hand. "When it comes to a i supper or dinner table, the (Jordoifs don't need anv command to charge; , they just see the enemy in front of ( them, and every man singles out an enemy (in the shape of something1 good to cat, not forgetting tlic fluids,) saying to himself, "you're my meat," and goes for him, and that enemy , disappears; but Frit/, kept sending fresh battalions to the see 11c of conflict, only to have them slaughtered as ] were their predecessors, and when the boys got through there was none of till* solid part of the enemy left except , a few bones. Cigars were lighted and j then the fun began. ('apt. Jordan, in a few well chosen i remark?, called attention to the fact I that this occasion was the fifteenth . anniversary of the company; they had < been in existence fourteen years, and . notwithstanding the many difficulties they had to contend with, had gone on i without reorganization under almost j the same officers. lie congratulated ] the men on ihe work of the day and i j said he was more than satisfied at the i result. While he would not say they < I were the best drilled men in the State, I he would say thev were the best desciplincd, and if the inspection had i been postponed three weeks he would j have shown General Farley some i : drilling ttiat would have opened his eyes, but he would say in the language ! of The News am> IIekald, "Watch I the Gordon Light Infanirv in Colum1 bia."
