?The Ediito fishing parly returned
on Thursday moniiug. They are not
saying much as fo their trip. "We presume
they want to get together and fix
up a story that all will agree on. We
learned this much, however, that the
car containing their previsions did not
arrive at the fishing grounds until the
day they left, and consequently they
had no lx>ats to fish from and nothing
to eut. They managed to catch enough
Imwpvpr. to keen the wolf from
the door. They say they caught
enough to eat, but brought none home.
Mr. Connor is credited with catching
the biggest fish.
?The closing exeicise3 of the Fairfield
Normal Institute (a colored
school in charge ot the iicv. I. D.
Davis:) vsere concluded 011 Thursday
night with an entertainment in the
Thespian Hall. The entertainment
consisted of recitations, dialogues and
music, and it was highly enjoyed by
those present. Farts of the programme
were verj well rendered.
There was a large attendtnce of the
colored people, and few whites occupied
seats reserved for them. Cood
order was preserved throughout, and
altogether it was a very creditable
affair.
?A party, consisting of Messrs.
J. E. McDonald, J. W. Scigler, J. II.
Cu minings and ~\Y. G. Jordan, left on
Tuesday morning fer Ivillians on a
fishing frolic. They tried all the
in uoio-lihnrlmnH. and CV811
" ? "" 7
went over into Kershaw County.
They came home on Wednesday morning,
and won't tell what they did.
We presume they are reserving their
fish stories until they hear from the
other crowd, as this party consisted of j
the entire staff of commissioned officers
of the Gordons, and as the Gordons
can't be downed, there is no use for
the ether crowd to try. We are banking
011 the Killians crowd telling the
biggest.
The children's contribution to the Davis
monument trill nott of course, include the
finids to be raised bn the aroint people.
Picnic Postponed.?Owing to the
fact that arrangements for transportation
to Rockton have not yet been
completed., the picnic is postponed.
The day will be set as soon as arrangements
arc completed.
Lecture at Mt. Ziox.?The Rev.
R. Herbert Jones delivered an address
on Friday last before the scholars at
Mt. Zion College. His subject was
"Success"', and was highly enjoyed by
those present, and it is to be regretted
that more of the friends of the college
were not present.
One of Fairfield's Sons.?Dr. J. L.
Thompson, who is at present in charge
of the State Lunatic Asylum, is a native
of Fairfield County, having been born
and raised in the New Hope section.
Governor Tillman could not do a better
thing than to make Dr. Thompson's appointment
a permanent one.
Death.?Mrs. Thompson (mother
of Dr. J. L. Thompson who has recently
been appointed Superintendent
of the Asylum), died on Saturday at
her residence in the New Hope section
of this county. She had reached nearly
four score years at the time of her
death. Dr. Thompson went up on
Sunday lo attend the funeral.

"Did you go to Columbia to hear I
that old Roman make his iast effort to 1

they are going to treat the picnic
party with. The visitor* may look

dren's day, joined iu by the Sunday
schools . and congregations of Green
Brier, Horeb and Crooked Run
churches. The crowd commenced
gathering- about 10 o'clock and by 12
o'clock there were about three hundred.
The services were opened by
religious exercises and some line music,
conducted bv one of our old neigh
bors formerly, but now of the capital
city, Winnsboro, 11. H. Jennings.
There were several interestiug addresses
made, the first of which was
by Mr. It. II. Jennings, which was delivered
in his usual happy style, and
reminded us of the olden times. II
was specially directed to the children,
and a few shells thrown into the
camp of the young- men and some
older ones too.
lie True iuiiuvTcu uj uiig r? iiv/ui wc
represented as quite a young man, who
hud only passed a few summers ind
who turned out to be our reuerable
old friend, Capt. I. N. Withers, of
your city. While he has a reuerable
appearance, he manifested all the
vigor of youth in his address, lie
impressed all very forcibly with his
theme, "The Missionary Cause," and
what is expected from the young men
and jjirls in the near future. He can
veritably be called the silver-ton?ucd
oraior of Fairfield..
lie was followed by a short address
by The pastor, Her. J. W. Marray, all
of which was *vell timed and very
appropriate.
Next came the dinner, which was
spread near by in the grove, which
consisted of picnics and hash. There
was threa hundred pounds of beef
cooked in the hash. The hash pots
were presided over Uy Capt. Jai.

We are haviug a quantity of rain at

by the showers of rain that hare fallen
recently. Some *f our neighbors arc
done chopping out cotton, and some
have not yet commenced. Stands of
cotton were very poor until the firbt

lorth good stands everywhere. One
of our neighbors planted gome of his
cotton orer again, ana next morning
he had a good stand; can anyone tell
how he got a Hand so soon after planting?

White Oak, S. C., May 29.-Special:
The farmers around here are once
more wearing their pleasant smiles.
We arc getting: an abundance of rain,
abundance of cotton, and grass
there is no end. Several have finished
chopping out cotton and some have
just begun. In places where it was
choppi d before the rajus it looks as if
there had never been a hoe in it. A
good many planted over, eomo replanted,
all have plenty now but it is
rery late. It cannot make a full crop.
Setting out potatoes and tomatoes is
the oro this wft weather. The fall oats
D '
are very fine and are nearly ready for
the cradle; the spring oats have improved
very much since the rains.
Some of them will be very good and
sotne that was sown on ihin land cannot
be harvested. Old corn is looking
fine. Wheat is good bat very little
growing in this section. Garden* are
backward, ' but looking very well#
Watermelons promise well. There Is
do end to poultry.
The health of the neighborhood is
tolerably good. There are spring discuses
prevailing, principally among
the children, though it i- yet in a mild
form.
Trial Justice Bue.-chel and his
deputy, J. W. Bankhead, have been
busy for several da>s seaicbing for the
stolen goods of Mr. M. C. Matthews
that were stolen from his house sev
