Bonfires, Roman Candles, Skyrockets, j
and Other Fireworks.
Our town was brilliantly lighted by
an immense bonfire in the middle
of the square last Thursday night in hon*>r
of Cleveland and Hendricks. When
the light, which made the square as light
as it was possible for ariincial li^ht to
make it, had somewhat died out, Roman
candles and skyrockets went up from ev-,
ery part of the square, and all the people
allowed signs of the greatest delight. I
Nearly every man in town was present, i
and great numbers of our most charming!
ladies lent grace and beauty to the joyous
occasion. The citizens had contributed
money enough to buy all the fireworks
that could be found in the town, and they
were all burnt to lend a graceful light as
they sped upward, or to please the sialic
ns thev whirled, or to shock the nervous
citizen by a great concussion as they
exploded with more or lews force.
Fire-crackers of tbe ordinary kind were
burnt by the box, but Speed it Lowry's
dvnamite cartridges always lifted the timid
off their feet.
Nothing of which we can conceive
could have more greatly stirred our
people, and gave them more pleasure
than did the news of the election of
the Democratic candidates for President
and Vice-President, and for more
than an hour the public square was a
scene of innocent hilarity and beautiful
fireworks, of joyous men and lovely
women. That night is a memorable
one.
The Cedar Springs Disturbers of the
Peace.
The Deputy Sheriffs of this County
wont out yesterday with Warrants for
the arrest of various negroes who disturbed
the peace at the Cedar Springs box
last Tuesday by tiring pistols, displaying
ciubs in a threatening manner, and using
violent language towards the whites.
Bob Wardlaw was lodged in jail for further
investigation, and Henry Adams,
Fcank Patton, Anthony Brown, Ben
Henderson, Mat. Kamey. gave bond for
appearance before Trial Justice DeBruhl
to-day. It is said that W. IV. Frasier
bought a ticket at Verdery and went towards
Augusta on Sunday tuornig, and
it is thought that we will beshort a school
teacher in future. Sol Morton is evadin :
arrest. These two men seem to have.f
l>een the ring-leaders. There were about:
twenty-five men at ueaar springs wim j
clubs and pistols, who said they had
come to "stand by Frasier." The Deputy
Sheriff is on "the lookout for the**!
men. Some two hundred negroes were
nt the polls at the time of the outrage and i
only about a dez>*u white men were
there.

Into the kingdom of heaven."

Death of a Much llespecU'd Lady,
Mrs. M. M. Thomson, widow of the
late Judge Thomas Thomson, died at her I
home in this village last Saturday morning
at three o'clock, alter a lingering ill- ,
ness. (
Mrs. Thomson was one of the best
women of our town, and one who possessed
the affection and respect of all our
people. She was a conscientious Chris- 1
lian whose life was adorned by many
deeds of kindness to those about her, and 1
whose great life-work was the rearing of <
a family of children who wiil ^ean honor
to her long after her departure from the |
scenes of earth. She died in the comfort
ing hope of a blessed immortality in the
letter world. Ttje funeral services were (
preached in the Presbyterian church by
Rev. Mr. Richardson, and her body was
laid to rest in Upper Long Cane grave
yard. 1

The New K* it road.
When the new Railroad incompleted to '
Laurens, new lile and activity will t?e im1>arted
to the trade and business of every !
Lind that town. Cheaper freights
will enable the merchant* u> draw trade, ,
of which they will enjoy a monopoly mi* i
til the new r<?ad is finished to (ireenville <
and Spartauburg, when prices will turn- 1
ble in these last named towu*. The road

pleted, and we have every reason to bj- i
lieve that it will bo finished to Greenville

at Troy. Maj. J. K. Vance is one oC
the liberal contributors, and is iurnishttig
the walnut with which to make the pulpit.
The Baptist church at Troy was finished
a Cew weeks ago.
Abbeville and St. Joseph.?The St.
Joseph Daily Gazette says that Col. J. W.
Boyd, the Democratic nominee Cor prosecuting
attorney, was absent about three
hours from the streets during the great <
processions of Democrats in that city,
out when he put in an appearance he
rendered a good excuse. He had been a
committee appointed to receive a little
visitor, who arrived just in time to witness
one of the grandest meetings St.
Joseph ever saw. Col. Boyd was elected
to the office t'er which he was nominated
by a large majority over his opponent.
His success has been marked and attained
on the score oCpeisonal merit.
Thk steam engine and coaches of the
Augu?ta DOlinu train wnen iwiiikv?reen-1
wood last Wednesday, was taken from 1
the main track by mislaid switch, which i
sent the engine over thetuin-tnble, stick-!
ing its nose deep in the embankment!
where it landed on the other side. An |
engine which had been used by the con- |
Htrnetion train was brought up, and took |
the train on its.journey. The committee j
appointed to organize "the new church at j
Troy were on board. We have no idea
that this fact had anything to do with j
causing the accident. They are not the,
sort that were once unloaded to appease
the raging billows.
The earthquake that wan felt in Newberry
reached this place last Monday
night, (or Mr. John Robertson thought
ao) about eight oclock. Lying peacefully
in bis bed, sweetly dozing, some of the
"boys" set off one of Speed <fc Lowry's
dynamite cartridges near his sleeping'
apartments. The shock was so great, so
sudden and unexpected, that Mr. Robertson
involuntrrily made a complete turn
in his bed before he realized that it was
not an earthquake that shook him.
Mk. William Vkrell, sometimes
called "Staite" for short, was in town last
week. He is now in bis jightieth year,
hale and hearty. He says he will marry
again. He believes that every man
should marry, and actingon this idea,he is
going tocourt somebody before long. If
be does not get married be proposes to
know the reason why.
It was said that our townsmen Mr.Tusten
and Mr. Brooks bought a big wooden
building on the square for the purpose of
making a bonfiie in honor of Cleveland
and Hendricks' election, but after 'heir
patriotism had effervesced a little they
concluded not to make the pyrotechuic
show.
j
---- The
iipw railroad was finished to within
four miles of Laurens lust Thursday.
[ N\ e presume the cars mint now run 10
within three mfles of the village. When
ithe ears run to Laurens we hope to see
, more of our journalistic friends across
the river.
| The Oreenville Keren quotes apples from
! wagons at sixty cents a bushel, and from
the stores at seventy-five cents a bushel.
Owing to the high tax which wagoners
have to pay, we do not yet apples at such
prices as they are sold for in Greenville.
Oitr merchants speak cheerfully as t<>
their prospects for collections, though,
we believe, as a rule, trade is dull.
When the crops are short, and the debtor*
are more uependent, they seem to pay up
better than when they have an abundance,
j Mb. John R. Tolbert, candidate for
Congress went to Ninety-Six to vote, but
as he had registered at another precinct,
he could not vote there. He left in disgust
at the foolishness of Democratic
rule and the registration law.
Many persons suspended business

the work of saving the country, ancl receiving
election returns. They Will return
to business this week.
Mrcn whiskey was drank during last]
week, and some of the good men let the
thing get the advantage of them. It
would be a glorious thing for the morals
of the county if elections were less frequent.
