2he Chakades on Thursda1
Night.?The entertainment on Thars
day night attracted a large attendanc
ralhev ^>nrt Houso, and the perform
tocesA^ere of a very interesting cliarac
ter, keeping up, the attention of th<
audience to J;iie clpse. The "Dene
Shot," "Mad Cap,",'4Rough Diamond,'
"No Cure, No Pay;"-and "The Toodle?,'
formed thetoill of the evening, and fur
liished a varied and agreeaoie euteriain
ment. The characters were well per
t. sonated by the youiig ladies and gentle
/ r inen of our town, and the gracefu
?costumes, the easy deportment, the
X?lta self-possession, the proper concep^
tion and true representation of character,
which were exhibited in many o:
the scenes, were the subject of genera:
admiration. The stage was handsomely
carpeted and decorated, and some fine
music on the piano and violin, and some
humorous songs, contributed to the general
enjoyment. The receipts of the
evening, we learn, amounted to about
one hundred and sixty dollars.

Assessment and Taxation. ? We
learn that the assessment of the property
of the Greenville and Columbia
Railroad has been raised by the State
Board of Equalization from $331,989 to
$368,000. The State tax will be 10 2-5
mills; County tax, 3 mills; past indebtedness,
3 mills; widow and orphans, j
mill; total, 16 9-10.
Add school tax as follows in the different
townships: Ninety Nix, $700;
$500: Cokesbury, 2} mills;
.. , , . . . .
Donaldsville, ; Due "West, ;
Long Cane, $1,200; Smitljville, $600;
White Hall, $1,100; Indian Hill, ;
Cedar Springs $1,100 ; Abbeville, $2,500;

BgU Win. M. Evarts, the distinguished
lawyer of New York, and a
staunch kepublican. as chairman of the
special committee appointed at the late
meeting of the Trustees of the Peabody
educational fund, to report on the proposed
legislation of Congress with, regard
to mixed schools, has made a masterly
report, in which he closes with the
statement that compulsory legislation
by Congress in favor of mixed schools
fcs the system of public education will
be most pernicious to the interests of
education iu the communities to be affected
by it, and that the colored population
will suffer the greatest share of this
(disastrous influence.
.
We learn that Hon. H. IT. Ellison is
Very much dissatisfied about the change
in the Commissioners of Election.* He
says that the Commissioners cannot be
without <?ood cause, and that
( the Governor is required to make his
appointments sixty days before the
election, and there is no doubt that he
can produce the law on this subject. He
threatens, we learn, to have the votes at
the new nrecincts thrown out on the
ground that V the Commissioners of
Klection had no right (o establish
new voting places. The Governor
made a great mistake in not consulting
Mr*. Ellison about this matter, as he will
doubtless now claim the election to be
Illegal, and insist upon our "doing -the
whole thing over. Strange it is that
? these Radicals cautiot hold au election
i properly.
* . O
? M r , John Forttor, of the Greeu*
noiiyhborhood. one of the mojjt
substantial citizens of our County, and
a successful planter; who reads the Press
and Banner and always {>ay? fur his
paper in advance, was .in ourofllQe on
yepterday. He never conies to town "except.
on business, and always finds
<*nt>ugh at home to keep him employed.
Hfe lives in "the dry streak," and his
crop has suffered severely from drought.
He expects to give Gen. McGowan aiift
on- Tuesday.
uA&IXESS. ? A correspondent of the
Memphis Appeal says that laziness, is
the want of prosperity in many districts
of the South. In ^distance of one hundred
miles he saw only two persons at
; work in the fields, and one of the$i
stopped to throw a atone at the train as
it-passed. Great numbers of whites and
blacks were standing about doing
nothing, while the fields were white
with cotton, and the weather propitious
for gathering it. We aaus: "uauoa ituu
wegro^counties will be poor counties.
"When men work, whether white 01
black, they find no time to engage ir
riots aDd jail breaking."

> Judge Hoge in his speech at Abbeville
Court House on last Monday spoke of
Gen. McGowan, his competitor lor Congress,
in the most respectfnl manner,
F and said that "his military record
[ wasall that a gallant officer could desire,
r and that he possessed all the qualities
that went to make the gentleman
- and the statesman." Hejsaid, however^
> that he did not want him to get any of
. "our votes."
Why cannot the creoks which surround"
Fort Pickens be drained so as to
prevent the rise of the chill-producing
malaria? The Town Council should
see to it that some step is taken to restore
health to that stricken portion of
our community.
Messrs. Parker ctPerr in will astonish
the natives when they open their stock
of "Christmas tricks," which they have
1 received from Santa Claus. They will
1 enable parents to make many a little
. fellow's heart glad.
! Our friend/ Mr. Marshal DeBruhlJ
lias been cjerking for Parker &Perrin
for a long time,'which we think is the]
best recommendation that could be
given. LastThursday night, when lie
; was fixed in the Toodles, he presented
; a striking resei'/ibiauce to Dr. Parker,
,j tile senior member of his firm.
; Col. Robertson, who has an eye to the'
. | ractical, does not now have to call on
1 t'ie band for his music, as heretofore. I
1 He has made arrangements with his
> man Friday, commonly called Turner,
f-to supply any deficiency in that line.
The Colonel furnishes the banjo, and
Turner does the picking.
We are pleased to welcome to his old
" home, the Rev. W. II. Hemphill, who
' been making iiis home in Kentucky for
the last three or four years, lie and
Mrs. H?'are stopping with their son at j
this place. Mr. Hemphill will soon
travel iu the interest of Erskine C'ol?]poV>_

Our friend Dr. Stuart, of Xinety-Six,
failed to put in an appearance at the
Fair. The reader will remember his
fine garden of which we spoke in the
Spring. "We would have been glad for
him to have "exhibited specimens of
' his work," to verify the truth of all we
then said.
"When Judge Hoge rose to speak, he
said that he was sorry so many of Democratic
friends had left, but as they had
just heard.one^ood Republican speech,
he supposed they could stand no more.
Deacon Rogers has changed his name.
He is now known by the cognomen of
"Happy'' Ilogers. Watch the papers
and you will see the appropoiateness of
the name.

the best of luck.
We learn that one ?f the divines of
Greenville adjourned his prayer meeting
in order that his church members
might attend the Fair, which consisted
in part of test of the speed of some of
the horses on exhibition.
Major Griffin's cow took the premium .
as the best milker. His cow gave nine!
gallons and Sign's only seven gallons;
while on the grounds. We would be
very well satisfied if we had one even
as good as Sign's.
Mr. John D. Pace\s horse won the
I premium for speed at the Fair last" wek, j
land Mr. Pace, like Alexander the Great, I
I now sighs for other victories. Let him
; try A u demon this week.
Our frfend, Mr. Thos. Crawford, wasI
in town last week. He is the most poj?-1

country round.
\Vc hart the pleasure on yesterday of

. to aid in the work of reconstruction.
; We give him a hearty welcome, and#re

i to greet one so nighly esteemed and
I loved.
' Our young friend Lewis 'Wardlaw, of
; Charleston, arrived on, . Monday/?>n a
! visit to friends and rel&HVee here. The
yellow fever prevailing Jn th$ city lias
made a residence there somewhat dangerous'
at present.
In his speech on Monday last Judge
T. J. 'Mackey paid Gen. MeGowan a
high tribute, and among other things
' said that "he was the peer of any man
f in the Republic," and said that the
Democrats shouhi all support him. He
> however did not advise the Republicans
to<ly so.

; in securing the present nominations for

" Judge Mackey and I). H. Chamberlain

meeting at that place, was broken up
[ so Pie time since.
s Lieut. Gov. II. IT. Cleaves arrived 011
- Monday and made a speech. We had
0 just heard two long speeches, and as we
s, thought they were as much as we could
it j take in, did not wait to hear him. We
learn that he is a moderate Republican.

Business Necessities. ? In these
days of progress, most enterprising ni
tirins use every means of putting their j|
names before their customers. In no
, j way can this be more conveniently ami
attractively done than by using Printed
| Letter Headings and Bill Heads. They
f have come into such general use by
! niornhants. tliat one seems old fashioned
1 who does not use them, and the custom ?
should be generally adopted by the
Country merchants. 1
Walker, Evans & Cogswell, Charles- X!

' Heads of all grades, and at the most
