Exhibition of tlio Ninety-Six Academy. Editor Abbeville Press aiul Banner : Our place was unusually lively On the 7th instant, caused by .the throng of visitors to the exhibition of the .Ninety-Six Academy under the management of J. K. Jblake, A. B. At an early hour the liall was packed to its utmost capacity. The exercises were opened wuii prayer by the Rev. Mr. Alexander, of JBTorth Carolina, followed by the able and learned discourse of Prof. Hood, who was orator of the day. ' Next followed the declamations of the boys, the rehearsals ot the little srirls and the essays of the ( ^onng ladies, all of which showed careful traiuing and discipline. Mr. ( Bi&ke has taken a strong hold on ( tfee affections of the people of our V&qge as a teacher, fo^his energy * Wftd thoroughness. At 1 o'clock there was a recess of one hour " when refreshments were served a la ^ $>ic?nic. The exercises were inter- 'J spersed with excellent music by 1 Prof. Schmitt and daughter, assist- ^ ed by Messrs. Fowler, Branch and 1 Trowbridge, of Abbeville. The band were loudly applauded at the v dose of every piece. Ataight the a exercises consisted of tableaux. * charades, &c., by the school In - these as well as all ejae they acquitted themselves handsomely and a creditably. Taken altogether the ^ exhibition was a success, and Mr. s Blake may -well feel proud of his 0 effort v On Friday evening, the 8th, the ladies of Siloam church gave an 1 ^ l entertainment, consisting of music, I] {(vocal and instrumental) and re- 11 freshments. The music was truly s splendid ; the young ladies brought the house down at every attempt. ? In this connection we desire to ajie^tion the Misses Devore, of Pheenix, aud the Misses Lfland of * this pface vrho were present and kindly assisted iu the music de 8 partmeutand added materially to c'( beauty and *" elegance of the per- a %rmance. a The concert was well attended, 81 and passed off to the entire satis- u faction of all concerned. The re- ^ ceipts of the evening were about c: ?100, which will be appropriated . to the use of Si loam Baptist oh n roll 11 near this place. S! SPECTATOR. 0 oj Greenwood Meeting. h: ei A called meeting of the voters ni of Greenwood Township was held!si On Saturday.9tli inst. The object of the meeting was to'consider ti.e b< discrepancy between the reports of J the County Treasurer and i>o;;;di of Trustees, of amounts paid tut' for school purposes. The chairman of the Board ex- filbited his report, which showed that drafts had been drawn in 1873, on the County Treasures for twelve hundred "bud fifty-nine dollars is v t ($1,259). The chairman also sub- B mitted a list (furnished him, he K said, by the County Treasurer,) of ^ claims paid by the latter in 1873, e ' amounting to two thousand aud eighteen dollars and twenty-five cents (2,018.25.) These exhibits were examined tl and discussed by both white and colored, and after investigation, it J was r Resolved, That from the state- , ment made by the chairman of the * Board of School Trustees of this Township, that the sum of eight hundred and fifty-two dollars and ^ eighty cents ($852.80) of the tax appropriated for 1873 has been applied by the County Treasurer j to the payment of previous claims. B It.is the sense of this meeting that * ?uch payments were not warranted * by law. j On motion, adjourned, to meet ^ #ga?n at the call of tlie chairman, j JAMES BAILEY, ] Chairman. < ;'; A. M. Aiken, \ Secretary. School Examinations and Pic-Nics. i I JMitor Press and Banner: The examination and burbecue at St. Charlotte, in Bordeaux Town-; ghip, was a success The children did well, and reflected much credit . jipon the teacher. Every thing < passed off quietly. One or two speeches were made. . The School Commissioner of Abbeville County made a short address. The Abbeville Brass Band was prea^pt on the occasion, and gave some fine music. The grand success of Bordeaux should stimulate all schools, white and colored, to follow their exAJnple, both in education and barbecues. The examination and barbecue a4> filf "Vfnsil. 11 in Pi?11*/mh\ {it k^u iuaij o ^/uuituj in vaiuuuii Township, was also a complete guccess, and tlie children, from their examination, also reflected ;jauch credit on the teacher, and no one present oould deny but that Hvwy means had been used by the teacher to improve and elevate the mil ii minimi ?iw i n i n i?i i urn mm children.
