yTi' * / The Press and Banner Wednesday, Nov. 20, 1878 What's the Matter T Our people anxiously watch the Columbh nnd the Charleston papers every day for re { oris as to the condition of t he Governor, bu t Is seldom that a report of Ills condition ii made. It seems to us stranse that dally note! are not made. It is certain that no para graph 1 n cither paper would be rend with iiai as much interest. At this writing we an unable to state his condition. The hist report ? rr.u-.hivs ul'o. was that he hail feverund was not so Weil". Rewarding Merit. Major John Alexander, of the Concaroc Iron Works, whose irons .ire everywhere tr be found in Abbeville county, bore off a silver medal at the State Kair for the largest ant! best collection Iron eastings and mi lings, and bis circular saw mill took the first prize ot diploma, for machinery of that kind. The Major is expected to exhibit specimens of his handiwork at our l-'air. Wclcome (Jucst. * We were pleased to greet in our office last night, our old friend Mr. T. It. (Yews, of that highly prized journal the LuitrenxvUlcllernld. Mr. Crews was for mftny years one of tie editors of the Abbcvillr linnner, and has still many warm friendsinonr county, lleeomcs to attend our Fair. -?> ? Mrs. G. W. Connkr, of Cokesbury, took a premium at t ie State Fair fora beautiful spcc linen of her handiwork in mica. Other ot our lady friends may have taken premiums, but wecould not undertake to wade through four columns of small print in the ItcrjUbT to llnd them. The -correspondent of the Newt and Conrirr, says: The next department In order was that of Held and farm produce. In this line arc to ue nieiiuoiieu u i??nn inttMi^ of corn, snch ns were seen by Josepn and the lean kind, in theirdreams, a foot and a half in length and full grained, exhibited by Dr. Gary, of Cokesbury, S. who also exhibited specimens of un improved cotton, the "Little Giant," concerning which it may be said that for number of bolls, quantity and purity of fleece and strength of stalk it leaves bat little to be desired by cultivators of the staple. Death ov Col. F. E. Hakhison.?Our people will hear with sincere regret of the death of this prominent citizen of Anderson county. The sad event occurred at twelve o'clock last Saturday nlghi at his residence in Andersonvllle, after an illness of about one week's duration. Colonel Harrison was wellknown to many of our citizens and universally respected. He was about fifty years of age and had been for many years an hlder in the Presbyterian church. A large family roourn his death. We are Indebted to the publishers, Lee <& Walker, 1.113 Chestnut street. Philadelphia, for these elegant pieces of music, "Buttcrlck's Fashion Polka," "Hampton March" and "Auld Lang Syne." These are excellent pieces, and we have divided them between our littlesweet hearts who are delighted with them. If the readers should want anything in the musical line he should coufcr with the above named publishers. Postal Cards.?It docs not seem to be generally known, and probably never will be tluit anything pasted, sowed, pinned, or otherwise attached to a postal card, unless it be an address pasted on the "address side," renders it uumailablc as a postal card. Any writing other than the address on the side intended for the address also excludes it from the malls unless the sender attaches u threecent stamp to the card. Mr. and Mrs. W. D. SruiVAN, of Laurens. were on a visit last week to their brother, Mr. T. P. Quarles, of our town. Mr. Sullivan Is theowncrof that valuable property, the Tumbling Shoals faitory, and Is one of the wealthiest and most prosperous citizens of Laurens. Mr. Sullivan is a good man and deserves all his good luck. We are anxious to see if our Representatives are going to do any tiling to relieve us of the depredations by various "razor back" hogs. We need the no-fence law to make our farmers prosperous and happy. Our fences are nearly ell rotten, and the lorests arc barren of rail timber. Killed.?Johnnie, a five year old son of Mr. A. L. Luwton. of Calhoun's M'lls, wax Instantly killed last Sunday evening by the kick of a mule. He was struck with such force by the heels of the animal as to scatter his brain* agaiust the tree near which he was standing. The Rev. James L. Martin will preach at Hopewell church next Sabbath morning at 10U o'clock; and at Rethiah church at 3 o'clock p. in. At the latter church, the surmon will be on Foreign Missions, after which h collection for Foreign Missions will be takeu up. Mrs. W. Z. McGhke, of Cokesbury, and her little daughter were painfully burnt on Monday morning. The child's clothes had cuugdi m e iiiiu .in?. iu to save the child got her hands badly burnt. The child's body hud sustained some severe burns. A Siiort Session.?Thegencrnl Impression and expectation as to the next Legislation Is that it will not sit longer than six weeks ; it Is so largely composed this session of men whose time is too valuable to spend live or Fix months in Columbia even al live dollars, a day. Miss Aldricr, of Barnwell. sIsterofMrs. M. L. Bouham, has been 011 a visit to NinetySix. Her culture, beauty and ^race make her one of the most attractive of Iter sex. while Iter charming manners make her the favorite of nil. Ninety-Six is delighted with her visit. Thk Misses Bright, and Mr. (?eo. C. Hodges have been re-elected to teach the Female and Male (Schools at Greenwood for the year 1878. Ve congratulate the good people of that town upon having such excellent teachers. Greenwood is generally fortunate in her schools. Tiie change of the schedule on the Greenville and Columbia Railroad and the South Carolina Railroad Is a step back ward which will work great injury to Charleston. We regret the change. It now takes the Charleston mall two days to come to Abbeville. I<ast Sunday was a drizzly, gloomy day, nnd but few worshipper* attended divine service. The Baptist, Meth<?dlst and Presbyterian Ministers preached to small congregations. The Episcopal Church was closed on account of the absence of^thc Rector. Last week was an "ofl" week" in cotton at Abbeville. The low prices offered for the fttaple has discouraged many of our planters from bringing it to market. The low price of cotton should teach our planters the necessity of raisiug their own supplies. "Rkboiskment," Is the French for replanting forests: We have no equivalent for It In our language. "Re-woodlng"' would do, ond If we don't soon get a stock-law passed we Khali need to re-wood Abbeville County. Shai.i. a man be required to build a wall around his crop because his neighbor is the owner of an industrious and enterprising "rasor back" hog, which in market would not command two dollars in coin. "Denudation," is the word used by writers on Forrestn for stripping the land of its for <*tK. Onr American vocabulary lias no English wok] J'or replanting forests, It bus one lor destroying only. LAmt Monday seemed to be a general delivery day Tor the fruit tree nurseries. We are glad to note that tnimy of our citizens are turning their attention to the cultivation or tine fruit. We welcome back to our exchange the Kiiwytrcc Star, which has Just commenced a new volume last week. The Star Is a good paper and deserves much success. Major John IIolcombk. has opened a confectionery store, in the front part of Mr. Ryknrd'B grocery store on Washington street. Washington srreet is now full. The Rev. e. P. Davis, Pastor of Hopewell and Wlllington Churches, will preach In the Presbyterian church of this place, next Sabbath morning and evening. The Iturnwrll Sentinel apologises for leaving out "some three columns of interesting matter" in order topubllsh a two column advertisement for the Auditor. When the disorders of Babyhood attack your Baby use at once Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup and notice at once its rapid and beneiicirl effect. 35 cents per bottle. Rev. Mr. Martin Is to preach next Sunday Rev. Mr: Davis, of Hopewell, will preach at the Presbyterian Church at Abbeville on the same day. Overcoats, Clothing and ladles Cloaks In larger variety than ever before have Just been received at the New Store of I. Glttleson. Call and get a bargain. Are you a delinquent? Look for your name ijn the listof delinquent taxpayers puDiisneo by the Auditor in anotlier column of the 1'reMUtid Iiannt r. Mr. Cuakles Wardlaw, an enterprising young townsman Is at present In Abbeville, lie represents Moore & Jenkins and does a good bn sin ess. Congressman D. Wyatt Aiken and Mrs. Aiken left Cokesbury on Monday for Richmond. Col. Aiken will go thence to attend Congress. Thk Press and JRanner thanks Col. D. W'yatt Aiken for a copy of the Agricultural Report for 1877. We shall use it for the benefit of oui readers. A ifcmbkh of Abbeville's handsomest young ladles were at the State Fair last week and bore away captive some of the cholccsl pi 1x68. Have you a pretty quilt, or piece of embroidery, or?ny article of skillful housewifery? Bend It to the Fair, and let everybody see it. The wise man soweth liberally of oats and wheat, but the foolish agriculturist pledget): his cotton crop lr the spring for Westert corn. You so Indies, don't wear your finest sllkf / and longest trail to the Fair. Short cheat 1 dresses ure the bestfoi occasions of this kind, The no-fence law would save Abbevilh county onehundred thousand dollars annual Jjr. Will our Representatives give it to us? M188Eft Cbews and McCord, of Laurens ville. and Misses Gary, and Treutlen,of Cokes bury, nre In attendance upon the Fair. Sheriff-elect J. F. C. DcPre has taken possession of the Jail premlsesjprcllralnarj to bis occupying the Sheriff's office.

Ia nlonf } rooc Thi I A Hin in tuv jiiuuHi ?w.-. .... weAther Is monstrously propitious for it, ant don't you forget it. The State Fair In Columbia was a grant success. Tbe Abbeville County Fair will bi a grander success. Some graccless scamp stole a horse from Mr E. Edwards' stable near Sharon church, las Saturday night. Mrs. Robertson, sister-in-law of MaJ Onborn, come to town yesterday evening u attend the Fair. We learn that Colonel G. B. Lltheoe, of thij place, has severed his connection with th< Aiken Review. Mr. Norris, at the New Store of I. Gittel son Is anxious to sell >ou a bargain. Callanc see him. From various sections of the County w< bear that tbe no-fence law is greatly needed. Miss Le Sassier, of New Orlftans, arrived !n town on Monday on a visit to Mrs. Benet. Touch not a single bough! You wont nee< new rails when the Stock law is passed. There Is widespread and deep interest it the county concerning the Fair. ;)lF . l *? ??nA frt . VlnAAmtinr 1ft 7ft .IDIHllilllt IUI l/CVCIUWVI I , I Harper's Magazine for December opens - with four old Christmas poems: by Hen I Jon son, George Wither, s. T. Coleridge, and Giles Fletcher, Abbey illustrates these with three remarkable pictures: the Christmas Waits, the Shepherds, and the Madonna in the Stable. An Illustrated article on "England's Great University," contributed by M. I?. Conway, j fives a satisfactorily comprehensive view of rjI the various colleires of Oxford, the social life . of the students, the most eminent of the pros fessors, ami the work accomplished by the ' University In promoting scholarship in Kngj-lland. The illustrations are picturesque and \ Interesting. ' j The most interesting paper In the Number I i ?because of its humor?is the fun-provoking 1 j narrative of II. Munn Chowson ofDedham.! concerning the peculiar institutions ofi Knoware?an island upon which he Is thrown I by shipwreck. This article Is by Rose Terry I Cooke, the author of "Cal Culver and thel Devil,' in the October Jfurprr. The lllustra-i ' Hons are as humorous as the letter-press. I M The thrilling adventures of the "Red j River Colony" belong to the early pioneer I! history of the West, and arc told by General I Chetlaln, a descendant of oneof thecolonists. ' The article is effectively illustrated. ! Lovers of music have a rare treat given > tliem in the beautiful paper on Mendelssohn and Moscheles, covering a remarkably inter-1 estlng era in the progress of music both In; I England and Germany. The paper contains | finely engraved portraits of Mendelssohn, Moscheles, Handel, Von Weber, Ilach, i Thalbcrg, Robert and Clara Schumann, j Beethoven, and Mozart. An illustrated paper by Charles Barnard describes the mining of silver in all its stages. I The brief paper on storm signals by K. II. i I Knight is also very timely. Ex-Governor Seymour, under the title ' "Crime and Tramps." makes some Important suggestions as to the punishment of minor . crimes. Dr. Coan, in "Some Peculiarities of Yellow .lack," presents very vurious facts as to the migratory character of yellow-fever epidemics, and other features of the disease. A. A. Hayes. Jr., contributes an Interesting and piquant description of the "First Rail- 1 road in China." the Woosnng Railway?re- ] centlv demolished by theClilncse. Besides Mrs. Cookks "Knoware," already mentioned, there arc three capital stories. "Two Hundred and Two" is contributed by i Elizabeth Stuart Phelps; "Hellen," by Alice Perry; and "A Rescue from Cannibals," by 1 - ** ?? \Wnftliv Poems are contributed by E. S. Phelps. Will Wallace Harney, Francis L. Mace, Paul , Hayne. and W. H. Babeock. The Serial novels by Black and Hardy, con- ; tinned in this number, will be concluded in January, to be followed immediately with a new novel by Miss Mulock. The Editorial Departments?including a , fuller Literary Rccord than usual?are up to their usual standard. It must not be over- , i looked, in any proper notice of this Magazine, | that whatever may be the variety and inter{est of any Number, there is also an addition* jal element of peculiar value in the always timely and admirable contributions making < up the "Editor's Easy Chair." *?

I American Jicgistcr, Parit. 1 Amongst the interesting items of literary Intelligence in Paris at the present time, it 1 may f>c mentioned that Madam Durand, better known to the world of readers under the name of Henry Grevillr, has made a contract i with Miss Helen Stanley, a correspondent of | the Sew York Keening Itat, whereby siie will hereafter translate all of Henry Grevillc's ( novels from the original manuscript in French, into English, for publication in Amer- t lea simultaneously with their appearance in < Paris.

Had Henry Urevillc never written nnolher work, this one alone i would establish her fame. Thk Ryans, Father nnd son, gave three en. s tertuininents in Thespian Hall, Last week. 1 Kach eveninp, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, they hud large audiences. The enter- ' talninent was of a high order, combining in- < struction and amusement. Prof. Hyan is a |1 tine elocutionist, possessing a wonderful command of voice that enables him to portray ! < faithfully the sentiments of any author as 1 well as to imitate the faults of public speak- ' ers. His "take off" of the Arkansas eandi- j didate was true to life, nnd we can find his ' type everywhere these days when so many 1 wiseacres are wanting to serve "the dear peo- ' pie." The lecture that opens the entertain- ' mentis interesting and protltnble to all who would attempt to speak or read in public. ' Holla, the son, personated several characters, ' male and female, <"ld and young, with great ( accuracy. When iiahited as a woman's right advocate,or, '.Miss Flora McFlinisy, ol Madi- 1 son Square," he looks the handsome lady to c perfection, voice, pinback, affectation and all. His Texas "Cowboy" and "Xcwsooy" were ' the richest characterizations; in these he ' equals if he does not excel anything that we ' have ever seen by Sol. Smith Russell. If } there is anything in the advice "Laugh ami j grow fat," lti'Ma's audience must have gain- 1 ed a good many pounds avoirdupois,after his parody on Longfellow's "Kxcclsior." Hut his ' personifications are not confined to humorous characters; his rendition of "Shamus t O'llrien," in the part where nis mother pleads with the Judge nofto hang him, brought tears to several bright eyes that a moment before weredancing with laughter. i We hope that it will not be long before the I Kyans shall pay Newberry another visit, i They may always he sure of a large and up- i preciative audience.?JXeivbcrry Jit-raid. l The White Sewing Machine.
