The cars are now running to that I }w>ist, arid an extra train yesterday from Augusta was expected to brin.sr! the Mayor of the city, a munlicr ofj bidders for i?is, aim excui>it?uisi?> generally, who might come to *ee a, country which has so long needed a; railroad. McCormick's and Bradley's' will be important towns on the! new railroad, and will command a good trade. With the approach rf the Railroad it seems strange that tinb ?dy wants to saw and ship to market th? vist amount of lumber abuut White Hall. We have taken the pains to go care- j fully over our "Long Cane" neigh ! hor a Patent Uutxirtc, and there have found twelve (to him) worthless patent medicine advertisements, and at least eleven lt>cal or business notices detailing their virtues, all of which pays the J'rc.?* and Banner proprietor nothing.?Barnwell Sentinel. If our neighbor examined our outside carefully he found about sixteen columns of excellent reading matter, nil of which is valuable to our readers, but cost* the Pro* and Banner an exceedingly small amount more than the cost of white paper. Tllfc College. Record, published by! the Literary Societies of Norfolk Col-J lege, with Miss S. T. Hall, of South Carolina, and Miss X. (J Ulackwell, of Virginia, as editors. The lirst fact, that impresses itself upon us bv the appearance of this paper is, that the, young ladies arc "editors" and not; "editresses." The Record is an excellent college paper, and we arc thank-J ful to the editors for the compliment of a copy. We wish them great success. The Newberry Xe.w* is "five years old to-day." ami an excellent paper if is, too. Energetic in gathering news, j and careful in typography and press j work, we are only surprised that the yaw does not advance one step, t:mi adopt the "patent outside" plan. Friend, with all your energy, you cannot obviate the necessity of keeping pace with the times. You must, sooner or later fa I into the tanks of the "patent outsidca." Mk. L.

Ksox's Hotel.?This new earn-j vansr.ry is now under the superintendence of Mr. J. H. Simmons. We can testify as to the excellence of the meals furnished. With Mrs. Moore, as sup< rvisor of the culinary department, and Mr. Simmons as manager-; in-chief no further recommendation need Le asked. Call and satisfy yourself. j We have been so hard pressed for Compositors in the lJrcnn and IUuvkv otUee that we have been unable to doj much of. the "brief" work which we usually do at this season. When we ?lo not waiit compositors tliey e:nne in battalions, hut now that we need heli>, never the ghost of a compositor puts in an appearance. " 'Twas ever thus." ] The Emporium of Fashion is now, at theoldstam! of Messrs. Cunningham & Templeton. All the ladiesi will find their way to this headquarters for everything lovely in bonnets and hats. A pretty bonnet i-i not to; l?e despised, when the mere flutter of an aprou string may determine the destiny of the wearer. We sympathize with our brother editor Mr. NV. \V. Keys, of the AnUrr-1 son Intelligcncr.r\ in the loss of his dwelling by fire last week. The senior editor of the Press and llanner lias had some sore experience in the tire} business, and knows better than any-j body else, how it feels to be burnt out.' Mr. \V. T. Penney has taken! quarters in the store recently occupied j by Messrs. Cunningham Templcton.j He will be glad to see all the world; and the balance of mankind, whtn in need of anything in his line. Always: reliable, intelligent and correct, he is sure to give you what you want. James C. Klugh, Esq., hangs out! Ills shingle, and will engage in the j practice of the law at Abbeville. lie-: ing a man of talent and real wort!), his success may be set down as an as- j sured fact. His office is in the rear of! Mr. Graydon's office, where lie will be glad to see his clients.

We would call the attention of our; lady friends to the advertisement of special bargains by Messrs. It. M.I Haddon & Co. They wish to make! room for the Spring stock, which they claim will be far ahead of anything! ever offered in this market. Ox December 30, 1881, the Ambrnon Journal published the hest paper that; lias come from that office in six months, but as the editor apologized, we forgjve him this lime.

Mr. McDonald now lives over thej store room recently occupied by Mr. Barn well, and takes boarders at the! most reasonable rates. Old mules are offered for sale on every corner. Quite a number of old stacks of bones went oil' to the highest bidder last Sale Day. The scales belonging to Mr. James! S. Wilson were sold lai-t Monday lor $117.50, Mr. Joe Hammond becoming! the owner. We have had much rainy weather for the last week and the roads are beginning to be very muddy on the red clay lauds. Mr. Knox has a gong which is sounded at meal time. The fare is excellent, and the price is low. In many cities are cases of small pox, and the country is becoming alarmed at its spread. * Evekythincj will be closed out at con (o make room for tlic large spring stock I expect to get in.
