Calhoun died :it his residence in (Jreenwooil on the ni^lit ?> " the iitili instant, after a p.tinlu! illness of two weeks. i The announcement of l!iis event will be received by our readers with the j est regret. Dr. Calhoun was 0:10 ofourj Most useful and valued citizens. 1-Vw I men have done more in a'juiet way fori the cause of hum uiit.v. lie was lore-; most in every ?; ? ?il work, whether of; Church or 13 lue.iliou. or State; a rnlinzj elder in the I'reshyteri in chureh, hi- ( counsel was always sought, and ho e\-j 1 ...... .-.ii;,w iii!i:inni'<> io matters I VI <,u.i .4 V 0 ... of ( 'lurch policy. He iv;ts instrumental in establishing a! M'stein of most excellent schools in his own town under the auspices of tii?f ol?l Cambridge Association. which he transferred on liis removal from oM Cam-| bridge. lie spent the earnings of a Ion>i life in rearing ami educating the children of others. lie was the first to conceive and urge 1 the construction of the Greenwood and Aususta I'ailroad, and by his counsel i and encouragement contributed much to! its success, it was mainly owing to his influence that the Columbia and Green-j villc Railroad was diverted from its ron'e through Laurens into this County, j Dr. Calhoun was one of the most enii-i hent physicians of liis day. He was often consulted by members of the pro-j fe-ision from a distance. Dr. Calhoun was no less remarkable in his private than in his professional and public character. lie was systematic in all his transactions?simple in his tastes?frugal in his habits, lie took special interest in the young and was delighted to have them about him. While contributing t<? | their pleasure he was careful to point out to them the paths of virtue. l>r. Calhoun died in his eighty-second year, f ? Prosperous Colored People. While there are downs of prosperous families of colored people about Abbe--, ville, who have by honest toil and the grea est economy, saved enough money to buy themselves homes we may be! pardoned for mentioning the names of 1 two or three families who are especially ! Hichani Gantt, the barber, some time : ago bought a very niee lot and a small i house, which he paid for in full. Since I then he has built a shed room in rear and < a piazza in front of the house, and other- I wise bratitilied the place until now it is;, quite a r.eat little homestead. All tins is paid for by the labor and economy of < himself and his wife, who is a school ( teacher. ! i Row S. II. Jefferson, the Providing EI-! dor of the colored people"* church in this , Circuit, is also doing well. Helms rc-i* centlv bought a lot and is improving the , house, and making it appear almost as a new dwelling. Lewis Riehey, the blacksmith, hus just finished an excellent two story dwelling, ' of several rooms. IJv steady application '' to business and thfl skillful pursuit of his ! trade he has made money, and is ahead ,1 in this world's goods. But the best part of it all is, these col- ( orod people havo the respect and couti- t deuce of their white neighliois, and are < honored by their own race, and in them- < selves furnish further proof that solf-respect.aud a little prosperitv will do much , for the colored people. They are worthy , examples of the benefit to be derived j from those desirable qualities of cliarac- ( ter that will elevate that race. People of I their morals and character, are worth . more than ten thousand educate:! pan-, pers who may be deficient in the eharac- ' ter for which these lamilicu are (iistiti-' J finished. j' The Attgtisla Chronicle astri Conslitu- 1 tiimalist. : I "\Vr? * Wn nln*xiirr? nf :i f!ll ! last Fi i-1 (lav from Mr. B.

The Chronicle and Confrfituthmnli-it 1 lias been coming to our otliee lor perhaps i lifleen years, and, as far as we have no- < tieed, that newspaper hit" never emulated j any newspaper whose agents lind it ? necessary to assail the loyal newspapers, | while begtring people to sul serine for . < mixed or jumbled trash.

Our New 'fawns. |j From the number of our subscribers j who receive their papers at the new | towns on the Augusta and Knoxvillo', Railroad, we are inclined to the opinion ( that much business will naturally gravi- j Lite to these places. While we have not t. added as many new names at these places as wo would iike to have done, yet eon-! j siderable packages of our paper goes to r each of these new towns, and we are ex-! lieeting further additions t > each of these : i lists. It would be well for us, and for each of these towns, if some friends 1,1 i. WUUIU ncnu % ? tinning notable events. The towns along !, the Augusta and Knoxville Kail road, wo i< doubt not, will noon bo iu as prosperous a condition as tlio towns on the C. &<S.j 11. Ii. Prompt, Skillful, Reliable. We i4fer by these words to Major John Alexander, of the Congarce Iron Works,! Columbia, S. C. For a quarter of aeen-1 turv we Imve bad dealings with liim every year, and wo know whereof we affirm J when we say that in all that time he has never disappointed us once or failed to be fully up to any emergency, whether as I regards promptness, skill an a mechanic, | or fair dealing as a man. If our readers do not want more than these qualities, woi recommend them to John Alexander ev- j ery time. If anybody would like to see j n specimen of some of his work, let him look on some of the farms on Hard La-[ bor. The Coronaca High School. \ From private sources we learn that the Coronaca High School, under the maii-i agemcnt of Prof. Miller, has been open- j ed with the mast flattering prospects. > Among the large number of pupds pres- i I ent at the opening of the school were sev cral advanced scholars. Prof. Miller Is j oue of the best teachers in this county,' and every mother's son or daughter in that neighborhood should receive the i benefits of his tuition. . <*> ?? As Rich as a Jew. Mr. Benj. Lichtenstin, once a salesman in the store of Messrs. Israel & Brnssel at Abbeville, has prospered since he loft this, town. He is row a member of a firm which counts its money by tho million. That firm is the largest 'manufacturers of cigars in the United States, and Benj.' Lichtenstin is a millionaire. O Good School. We aro pleased to learn lhat Verderv has a good school. Prof. Pvles opened last Monday with twenty-seven scholars, nnd tho prospect of a considerable increase in tho number. Prof. I'yles comes1 highly recommended and we have n<> doubt that he will prove a most excellent teacher. Auction of Merchandise. A large and varied lot of goods of every description will bo ottered at public outcry next Saturday at tho store of VV. T. McDonald & Co. If you want good bargains, attend this sale, as everything ottered will be ?o!d without reserve. Sale of Mills. The fine mills at Calhoun's Mills wero Bold last week by Mr. G. Cade t<> the Messrs. McNeill for $10,000?$3,000 cash, and $7,000 on time. In the mill tract thero are aoout one hundred and sixty acres of land. ^ of fthl Friend*. Mr. John Wilkerson and Mr. William Sprnell met at Abbeville last Monday. They were soldiers together in Mexico, and had not met since the late war. They are fast friends, and fought their battles over again. ? ? Rkv. J. R. Music, of the Associate Reformed Church, has located in Abhevillo, and will live in the house of his brotherin-law, Mr. ?frolin A. Devlin, and Mr. Devlin will go to Due West to live with his children who aro beintc educated at the Female College,' V\ e are glad to welcome Mr. Mnsejif our community, while wo are also glaa that Mr. Devlin does not leave the county. After Mr. Devlin has educated hi* children, we know that he will return'to his beautiful home, which id one of/the nicest in this vicinity. THE/uedge in the rear of the Episcopal Churon yard has been cut down?the growth of* twenty years. The misfortune of freezes, the work of ill-timed trimming, and the sturdy blows of the ill-advised axeman, it Bcoms, will soon destroy that moat beautiful ground, of which the numbers of that congregation have so long felt so just a pride. Is it not little less than sacrilege to lay violent hands on one of the most pleasing ornaments of the town ? j Mr. D. C. Snodcjrass lias a fine lot oi mules at Messrs. A. M. Hill <fc Son's lot, which he is anxious to sell at most reasonable prices. It is always economy t< buy a good young mule. In about twenty V ears after making such a purchase a i, ' . ' gudgeon will come along and pay tin original cost of the mulo when it is nearly worn out. The personal property of the estate o John White, deceased, was sold las week. nME u'.? 111WIIIJ?L?UI ' 'l">">!L I ' " "" " 1 I Mu. 15. C.

Tiik merchants at Verdery are prepar-l( iiiif for IIio farmers trade, in that neigh-j ( horhood there is great demand for haeoii, j< but there is nearly no calls for corn? 11 nearly everybody having raised enough J corn and oats last year to teed them and i, their stock this year. j \Yi: expect to publish more sermons' and more agricultural matter in the luture than wo have done in the recent past. In t!iis way wo hope to contribute! something to both the spiritual ami the 1 material welfare of our readers. j Wk were pleased to meet Major 15. F.

F. i'or Pre** a ml Jlnnm-r: Soni" weeks ngo I wrote a short article on j tin- above topic ami promised lo write anoili' er. but llinl that 1 have delayed so long that. 1 | have itlmosl forjt'dten the line ol' thou^hl which I intended to pursue. Most, ol' what I will say applies with ns much force to the pupil who expects t?? finish oil' in tin* academy us lo l lie one who will have the ait vantages of a colhiriatc conr-e. And right here I will stale a conclusion at which I have about arrived, and thai is. thai the hot course which J that class of pupils who expect to complete ! their education in the academy can receive is j to adopt preei.-ely I he same course which they j would follow were they prepai in;: for college, in other words, prepare themselves for college, though they may never enter it. Two reasons support thisconciusion. In the first place. I think ll will stand upon its own mcr it. As an academic c"lir?e simply ami wiili a view to success In praciical business life, I think it will compare favorably with any : other. I know sueli a couise h;<s some formi|dal>le opponents who arc ready to exclaim, j "Why waste two years studying l atin and | Greek wh? n that time coti'd be no iiiiicIi more profitably employed in sludying lest hooks i which would be of practical service in life?" llere the advocate of Latin and <Srcck is apparently floored l>y an answer which covertly assumes (In* very point InaKpstlon. It is , true, that in place of these tfrad languages, one mi'.'ht study chemistry, or sieolojjy, or Molllliy, lilll won HI III* .v in - mi j- mm ii > > in !ih<* long run? Would tiiey ?Jisi-i{-?;in the I mind as well? Would they teach you to learn to express your thoughts iit language j marked by its tl lsc-ri m 1 nut iii-.t nicety? Why the study of Latin un<l Greek contributes i much to your power of expressing your thoughts, ami J utii sure whatever improve:your language is intensely practical. But I am aliout to orntl the other reason. It is tnis: There are very few school children jvhowecon select out mid speaking ol them j individually, say that they will never receive a collegiate education. Because when a boy is twelve years old there is no prospect of his I receiving the benefit of a college training is j not conclusive pi oof that he will never tie so highly favored. Time brings to pass many i. changes and a kind l'rovidencc has conferred tlie advantages of a liberal education upon i many a boy whose poor parents never dreamed that such good luck was in store for him, ! And then look at the number of self-educated men?I mean those who have paid their own I way?and how many more would there be 1 did they not have to go back to the very ru dinients and study the Latin and Greek ali pliabel ? But enough on this point. . In the first p'ace, if you desire to prepare your childien for college, patrotiize the verj best school you can. Hi uember that chcui ! schools and cheap teachers are very dear ulti mately. (jet the best teachers in your owr community if possible, but if you can't ge r tht-m there, go elsewhere. They are absolute ' ly necessary and their importance cannot bi t over-estimated. I In the second place, patronize the sanx i-t.ni?II CTMMaawuMLtuiy ir?(wi wim Keliool and the nunc, teachers ns far n? il Iki piiiettcnb!c. it is h peal mistake and very j unfortunate for boys ami jriris while prepnr-! in-.; !'>r college lo he shifted al>ont from oik- ! v!:ool lo anol Iter.
