About sixteen applicants applied for
the chaplaincy of the second Soatb

that Col. Gaillard, who will command
j a regiment of engineers in the regular
j army, has not received a single application
for this position in his regiment,
although .we are told that the
salary is about $2,000 a year. Col.
; GaSlard is a Fairfield man, and we
throw this out to some of our Fairfield
divines. The salary is not the

A SUGGESTION.
Mr. Editor: I trust you will not consider
impertinent a suggestion from
me that you publish, without cost, the
names of those in town who will
board Mt Zion pupils, stating the
rafA. This will assist the trustees in
their efforts to build np the school by
establishing boarding facilities.
I fael sure boarding houses for
scholars can be procured in Winnsboro
as cheap and as desirable as elsewhere
and hope those wishing boarders will
accept the opportunity of makiDg it
known, should the abore suggestion
meet your approval.

On Thursday night L. Landecker's
store was entered and about fifty dollars
in money was stolen. The entry
was made by breaking one of the
large glasies in the front window.
The noise attracted the attention of
several people, and two men were
sean running down the street towards
the north. The money was in a sms.ll
iron box on a shelf in the store. Besides
the fifty dollars, some papei s iacluding

All who have signified their intention

it up to the standard.
The company must have seventy-five

The First South Caroliaa Regiment
has do flag, and the ladies in Colambia
and elsewhere propose to solicit subscriptions
for the purpose of obtaining
a flag for oar regiment. Some of the
young ladies in Winn&boro will take
the trouble to day to call on citizens
for a contribution, and we hope that
the contributions will be liberal. Col.
-?i.l?lUU is U rwuusiu iu&u, ami no jlotj
sure that h8 would especially appreciate
a contribution from his native county.
Many of the States have not only
given their regiments flags, bit have
| nearly equipped their troops. Pride,
to say nothing of patriotism, out to
i aake u? do something for our eoldiars.
j In this regiment are many Fairfield
boys, and if they have gone to the
front, surely it is as little as those of
us who have staid behind can do to
send them so slight a gift as a flag. It
is hoped, therefore, tbat no one will
send the yon?g ladies away empty
handed.

beard. Solomon's rod is to bad and
blossom. O'd Hickory will be revived.
But to obtain an 'up-to-date" "point
of view" of oar '"progressive" daji,
one must stand on bis head to soe
things more truly. All the old maxims
and practices are reversed.
It roads rgw, "Parents obey your
children;" " Wives support your husbands:"
''Train up a tfhild in the way
ho should go, end away he goes," etc
Is it not probable home training is at
fault o: nr,*.ir.?ly lacking, that pupils
need whipping at school? The teacher
wbo told bar pupil he, 6he or i: as the
case may be, "was not brought up
right".when unruly and impertinent,
was laying the axe at the root of tbe
matter.
Not many parents will consent to
having their children flogged when we
consider that teachers have been called
on to apo!og:ze for reprimand* for
offenses and parents defiant a3 to submission

I commence this truly in favor of
giving prohibition (which Mr. Childs
of our State has shown does prohibit)
a trial. We have given, contrary to
the eleven or twelve thousand majority
of the voters of our State, which its
rulers forced on U9, the dispensary or
St&te'liquor traffic a trial, and it has
proved a curse rather thau a blessing
to the majority of the people or voters
not wanting it, for it has caused war
and bloodshed in times of peace. I
noticed some statistics by "Uncle
George", candidate for Governor. He
gives very well gotten up views about
the money that could be raised by continuing
the dispensary, but the majority

On Tuesday evening about 8.30
o'clock lighting struck the stables to
the rear of the dwelling occupied by
Mr. S. R. McDowell. In a minute's
time the roof was in fhmes. The
prompt response of the fire department
saved the stable?. During the
fire a light rain was falling and aided
very much in subduing the flamei.
The stables were used by Dr. Hoover,
and when it was struck his horse and
buggy were both in it. Fortunately
the horse was not iDjured. ho%i

Persons troubled with diarrce* will'
be interested in the experience of Mr.
W. M.Bush, clerk of Hotel Dorrance,
Providence, R. I. He says:."For
several jears I have been almost a
constant sufferer .from diarrlacea, the
freqaeot attacks completely prostrat-]
ing me and reudering rnc uufi: lor my
duties at this hotel. About two years
ago a traveling salesman mnaiy gave
me a small bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrfcaji Remedy.
Much to my surprise aod delight its
effects were immediale. Whenever I
felt symptoms of the disease I would
fortify myself against the attack with
a few doses of this valuable remedy.
The result has been very satisfactory
and almost complete relief from the
affliction." For sole by McMaster Co.,

There was a very good rain ia this
section. The old corn was damaged
by the dry weather in May and Jane.
The young corn is looking very well
and bids fair lo make a good crop.
There will be a picnic at Bell's
Spring, near Smith's Ferry, in the
northwestern pait of the county on
Saturday, the 16th inst. I am requested
t? say that the public are cordially
invited to come and bring a
basket of provisions to help make the
occasion a success.
Mr. John W. Jeflares will leave tomorrow
for Liberty, a station on the
Southern Railway, where he goes to
take charge of a school.
Hon. Stanyarne Wilsou, M. C., has
intimated tome a desire to visit this
section and address (he people. There
will perhaps be a picnic in the ?ommunit}
daring the county canvass, at
which. Mr. Wilson will be present.
After the county candidates shall have
spoken Mr. Wilson will address the
people aiid be will doubtless sustain
his well-earned reputation as an interesting
and forcible speaker.
I I do not think I'll be a candidate
this year for any position in the gift
of the people. I mar offer for some
position two years htnce. I will write
an article some time in the near future
concerning my candidacy, eectlu?r forth
the disadvantage* under which I hare
labored in the past and ray aspirations
for the future. I think it a more
opportanc time to write it while I am
not a candidate, so it will not impress
anybody witti the iaea mac n was uimay
be written for the purpose o(
ingratiating myself with the voters of
the county. However, I will jot say
any more on that subject, but will re
serve what I hare to say for the communication
that I may write for publication.
