The Willing Workers of the Presbyterian church will civc an oyster supper to-ni^lit, Wednesday, November t'.th, in the New Hotel. Let nil turn out without resnrd to church affiliation. These oysters are iion-sectsirinit in principle, ami will l?e pallatable to all, without prejudice for or against any particu inr iorm <m reiiKion. .in m?- |?<>.......... about is, latitude for themselves and capacity for the eater.

Kobkrt Cochran, who has recently returned from medical lectures in New York, was in Abbeville li^t Wednesday. The Doctor Is one of the promising young physician* of this county, for whom success is surely predicted. Good luck to him. The crysanthemums of Abbeville are In all their glory. We think some of them might compare favorably with any that will be exhibited this w*?ek in Charleston. This beautiful flower can be kept for weeks by changing the water every day. Miss Hannah Hemphill has opened a dancing school fo-children. She will teach at Mrs. Knox's. Miss Hemphill understands dancing thoroughly and will make a good . teacher. Ouk merchants have never made better y Rales than this season. On Wednesday Inst the sale in dress goods particularly has never \ been excelled by Mr. Bell and Mr. Haddon. / Mr. A. B. Kennedy was one of the new ? subscribers to the Press and Tiannpr lastMon^ day. He Is one of the most prosperous and W substantial citizens of this county. The cars did not reach Abbeville until 7 o'clock on Saturday evening. The delay was caused by two freight trains running on tne track on the Abbeville branch. The ladies of the Presbyterian church wili give an oyster supper to-night. They never fail in their entertainments, so something good can be expected. Schooi. teachers will find nn important notice about the opening of schools, if they examine our advertising columns. If you want good brick, cull on Mr. T. w. McMillan. He has ninety thousand of them steaming hot in thefilil. Mr. William Syfan went to Columbia Saturday on business. Mr. Arthur Syfan tilled his posttion on the train. Four gentlemen, who are very fine tennis players, had an interesting match game onj Friday afternoon. j Mrs. Warren Smith, of Lebanon neighborhood, died a few days ago after a long and i lingering Illness. The chrysanthemum show will be one of the most attractive features during gala week in Charleston. Miss Bessie Gibbs, of Charleston, has been ^ on a visit to her friend, Miss Maegle Giilam, ' of Lebanon. Miss Lula Veuner. of Westminster, is visiting her friend, Miss Ada McMillan, of I this village. A large quantity of cotton came to town on Wednesday. Abbeville is a good cotton market. !

IKSS-9. ?Good Koadv-tiooil Bridges?Good Financial Condition And All's Well. The County Commissioners held their annual meeting Monday and yesterday, auditing all claims for the past current year. We learn Irom them that all current expenses will be paid in full. In the matter of bridges, damaged and destroyed, by the floods of September and February. (known as special claims,) there is a deficiency of about ?1,000, but for the full payment of which the County Commissioners 1 have made arrangements with the Abbeville Bank, so that all ciaims will be paid in full. These officers have worked faithfully dur- y lnc the past year, and as far .as we can see, their official duties have been discharged in a manner which can only be satisfactory to the 1 public. The roadswero never worked as well as they I _J now are. and wo have perhaps good ^^Ltorldges than ever ltefore in the hlsto.-y of the < ^ rfounty. This Board of Com mis-i.>-i? is Imvo r uniformly discouraged tin* crceit mpnrary or cheap bridge*, unit have, in iiim: In stances, put up bridges which, ii is supp<>.?

Todd will Toddle?Cotton lt?rripts. CiKKnxwoon, S. Nov. 4, Ks!>. Judge Cotiiran Wits on our streets last week. (Jreeiiwood is ns proud o|' him as any oilier portion of Abbeville eounly. The GrciitivooU Times was wrong in the statement thai "no mill in this section was manulacturiiig cotton bagging.' xne auh-berry mill lias been making at the rate ol J.iiOO yards per day lor several months. It Is acknowledged to be the best sold iu this or any other market. .Mr. and Mrs..). T. McLees ire now tenderly caring lor a little sunbeam, which entered tl'i'ir domicile a few days ago. It is quite weak, but under parental guardianship, prt>mises to grow strong and bright each day of its stay. Its name is Robert Calvin. .Mr. T. K. Riley left the cares incident to hotel life to his better half for a few days last week while he was taking in the Kxpositlon. .Mr. C. K. Jordan has returned to Greenwood and can now be found at the store of J. T. Youngblood. There is now little or no sickness in town. The surveying corps of the G. C. & N. R. 11., have pitched their tents in Georgia, having located the line on this side of the river. There was souie expression of surprise at i the resignation of Mr. Ilill, but there are competent men all over the county one of whom we suppose will be elected to fill the vacancy. Hon. K. G. Graydon and Mr. Dick Hill were in town Friday. Friday was the largest cotton day of the season. KO bales being the receipts, 9% was tlm prevailing price, butseveral bales brought \V. G. Calhoun has moved into his new house, and seems as happy as a king. Chickens and eggs command a good price in our airket. Mr. and Mrs. A. Rosenberg arc now enjoy- ( ing the companionship of another boy, which completes a trio that Mr. Rosenberg is exceedingly fond of. We sometimes think that the reading public are not as charitable toward newspaper correspondents as they shouid be. They are too prone tc make the severest criticisms on i our style, forgett ing, it seems, that In the get | up of a half column ol news wo often have to attempt the use of every style known In composition, and liable to get them mixed. It not uiitreguently occurs that we have to chronicle, a street tight, a fine sermon, a death, a marriage, an accident and a birth iu successive paragraphs. The day of long sermons has very properly been consigned to the past, yet occasionally a , minister will force an enlightened congrega- . Lion to listen to a discourse of one hour and a half duration, not seeming to realize that af- . ter the expiration of fourty minutes, the i thermometer of spiritual edilicatton declines very rapidly, reaching zero in a few minutes. At the end of an hour and a half those In the ' I'OIIHIIWILIUII, ?UU Jilt IIXOAIi i?/|n.w though they hud been struck by a blizzard, whilo those asleep, seem as so many icebugs 1 in an immense refrigerator. From tlie papers we are accustomed to reading, it is dilhcult for us to deeidc wlilcli is the most prominent personate just now, Burke the Cronnin murderer, or Todd the recently appointed post master at Clinton. Certain it Is that Todd is very opprobrious to the good people of that thriving town and the probability is he will have to toddle away. Mr. L>. H. Mctiill, of Hodges, was on our streets Saturday. A citizen from the country deposited $-10 with.hi? Honor Joel S. Hailey, for boisterous conduct on our streets last week. A worm doctor and walking cane gambler made tilings lively on the square Saturday. , Judging from the business they were doing uur people felt a greater need for canes than , vermifuge. Tnere may be whiskey sold here. We do not know. Hut while we are not in sympathy with any one engaged in the illicit trattle, we know that the greater part of it Is ship- j ped from other points. The express receipts f show this to he true. We write this in simple ( lustice to the law abiding citizens of our community. We would like to make the Greenwood column as interesting as any iu the Press and Banner, but we are unable to do it of ourself, therefore, if you have an item of news from the town or country, you will confer an especial favor by giving it to us. We can always be found at Dunbar & Co's store. Capt. J. T. I'arks lias been elected book ke?*per at the oil mill. .Mr. Stan Marshall has bought the Aikeu place from Mr. Karl.

We gladly welcome all such a men. He and liis family will be an acquisi- t Lion that Greenwood society may well be \ proud of. r. Mr. W. J. McGee, who seems to be the bus- J lest man on Mulberry, was in town last week. Thu young people enjoyed a nice party at Mr. B. Reynold's, Friday nlglit, , The Baptist congregation here have called ~ Rev. G. H. Carter for all of his time next year, 1 which call has been accepted. ,, Mr. C. G. Waller, our veritable auctioneer, sold the Methodist parsonage Saturday for <1,150. As this has recently in en made a station, a sale was necessary to a division. An Alliance man told lis tlieothe:' day, that! the only inconvenience he had sull'eivd from the use of cotton imaging was, that his cotton was so late in opening his wife used Ills supply in making clothes lor the children That trade is duller than it usually is at this reason is true, but the outlook is brighter that the whole country is getting In a more prosperous condition is evidence on every hand. Nice tarms with good improvements, better " jtock. full barns, Improved Implements with :;ash enough to run them, are now the rule, Instead of the exception. r No man has more respect, love and rever- J mice for a confederate soldier than we have. Dur father laid down his life In the cause and It is but natural that we have a tender feeling for his comrades in arms, nevertheless, we liope the day is near at hand when a man's war record will cease 10 bo used as a proper lualltication forotlice.
