^ - - "rr " ( The Press and Banner ===== ? : By HUGH WILSON. Twelve Pages. Wednesday, Nov. 27, 1889. The Head and Front of Our OH'endIngr - Gratitude to a Generous Public. The Preix and Banner feels truly grateful to the people of Abbeville county for the generous support, by word aud deed, which lias been extended to this newspaper in the hour when freedom of speech Is assailed. ' The recent unjust warfare which has been j waged upon us for the purpose of depriving | ?. livelihood has itroven I that the people of Abbeville do not want a muzzled press, nor a hypocritical editor, who will surrender principle for bread. It has also proved that any public or notable at" tempt to do a neighbor wilful or malicious inJury, will re-act on the perpetrators, while It will draw to the intenedd victim, the support and sentiment of that class of citizens whose better natures love fair play and an even chance. I ~ The cordial warm-hearted expressions of kindly Interest from sources where it was not looked for, and the material support which has come from new quarters, go a long ways to make up for any little disappointment we may have realized by the action of any oathbound friend whomay haveleftus in the hour of need, and when an effort was being made to force us to forfeit principle and honesty of purpose. Having been born in this country, and having lived In Abbeville county lor nearly lifty years, It is passing, strange that any combination of working men should seek to destroy a fellow-laborer who never had a dollar for which be did not work, aud who had no start In this world, except that advantage which oomes of being born of healthy and honest parents. As for money, education, and Influential friends, he bad them not. Whatever success has come to him is due to his !rI?wl 1 \r ui/1 \r hlr?h t hf? OWU tUCIUUUB, nuu 1UU muuv ... best elements of society ure always glad to extend to him who strives for honorable attainments. We Intend as we have always done, to publish an honest paper, and?having the sympathy of the good people of Abbeville county?we will publish the paper as heretofore, and all those citizens who want a servile press, or who may seek to shut out from their methods the light of reason or the force of faots may go elsewhere for their news- 1 papers. We are a free man in a free country, and we i do uot propose to cringe to any set of men who seek to destroy us for no other reasou < than that ,we defended |the people and in- i formed them of the costly errors into which, i In our judgment, they were being led. The j bead and front of our offending had that extent?no more. I We are of the people, and propose to pub- ! llsh a paper for the people, and will give i them a newspaper which will expose error whenever seen, and any man who doesu't want that 6ortof a paper should stop . his subscription at once. There are enough liberal minded men in Abbeville to sustain an honest paper, even though it should err In oplulon. BhlnmMil? From Abbeville. In September 775 bales. To 9lh October CM bnles.

Estimated on platform 150 bales Total receipts ('>781 bales. There was some falling off In the cotton shipments last week. A.t the close of yesterday, the price was a little lower, the price being from!) 1-1 to 0% cents for the best grades. Seed continues to come In, and ali that Is brought Is readily taken, but at lower (inures. Owing to the great quantity which has been offered, and Is still coming to market, together with the depression In the price of oil, the price of seed Is now 17 cents on the public square, butat the oil mill the seed is freely taken from all cotton, which they gin, at 18 canto a bushel. TKa Kl?h nxlno mVilM. r\ 11 mill ia nnv. ing for seed, and the low price at which they gin and pack cotton, has induced planters for many miles in the country to bring their seed cotton to town to have it prepared for market. Considerable cotton was packed this week In light bagging, but the demand for this kind of bagging is not great at the fetores. Although there never was as much homemade corn in Abbeville county, yet it is a notable fact that there is exceedingly little of it coming to market. This fact wonld teem to us to be a good omen. If the farmers take care of their corn, they will be lu fine condition to enter the business of making another crop. m m Strange Occurrence in Edgefield. BVery much to tne surprise ot everybody, the murderers of Youce?white men?were convicted of murder last week at Edgefield, and sentenced to be hanged. The Jury, however, recommended tliein to mercy, and the judge in fixing a day for tin* hanging promised to intercede with the Governor in tnelr behalf. If any men in the world wereguiity of cold blooded murder, these two white men are guilty. But, now, will Governor Richardson commute their sentence to life imprisonment.? If so In a few years or it may be months, they will be pardoned, and be once more free citizens. In case the Governor should refuse to commute the righteous sentence of the Court, will the Supreme Court intercede by finding some pretext to enable these murderers to escape their Just doom ? We will see. Governor Richardson, it is hoped, will do his duty. As a conscientious Governor, as a good cit. lzen.he should not place himself between every criminal and the gallows. The crime of murder should not always go unpunished, even in Edgefield. Dentil ol? an Kditor. We are sorry to note the d?ath of our old friend. Dmvhi .1. Piirtpr. of the T.tinrnxhr Ledger. He was once an apprentice, and afterward journeyman prluter, when he, many years ago, became editor and proprietor of the paper which he owned at the time of his death. He was a prominent, useful, and successful man?a self-made man, who won his way by energy and business tact. His death is a source of regret to those of us who knew him and respected him so much. ? ??? ? MiMtrlal In the Case or Col. Joiicn. The papers are talking much of the mistrial in the case of Col. Jones for the murder of the three Presslys. Suppose now, they try a new plan in drawing the Jury. In Abbeville county the Juries are drawn In the presence of witnesses. If Juries were drawn in public.it would be at least a guarantee that all is well. Try it. We like the plan in Abbeville, and we didn't like secretly drawn juries. The Florence Times Is the largest newspaper in the State. It is printed by steam, on one of the newest and best cylinder preB&es. ... I M l" V 'fit - Xot (Joins: to I.onvo I'm. There is no foundation in fart for thel removal of Mr. llenet to the city of Atlanta, other than the fact of his having a law ease which he is to conduct in the Courts of that | city during the month of January. Mr. Bonet does not expect to move from Abbeville. lie has learned to love this people, an<l they respect and honor hint. Ho will abide with us, and l>e forever as one of this people, joth in fact and in spirit. The Watchman an?l Southron. The Sumter 1 Vatchnwn and Southron has issued a trade Issue which is beautifully illustrated, anil otherwise elaborately gotten up. It speaks well for the enterprise of the publisher and advertises the town in the most attractive manner possible. Wo congratulate people and printer. The A il:en Recorder published an excellent trade issue last week. So many of the brethren of the press are publishing trade issues, that it seems that tlio Press and Banner ought to do the same for itself and Abbeville. If our press association would, for a novelty' frive consideration to other matters than excursions, banquets, etc., time might be had to discuss "trade Issues," and other practical questions of interest to printers. EDGEFIELD COUNTY AFFAIRS. H'asto of Public Money' on Useless ItritfKCM and Fcrrica? Parsimony in Fnrntailing; the Public Ofliors Justly Rebuked. While the people of Abbeville county have no reason to complain of the excellent management of our county linances, it seems that Kdgefleld is not so weil favored. The grand jury, in tbeir presentment at the recent Court says: "We find that our County Commissioners have made some very bad investments in the matter of roads, bridges and ferries. More particularly do we find the ferry across Big Stevens creek, at Shaw's mill, subject to our disapprobation. The ferry boat we find to be very insecure, and almost unfit for public use. The amount paid for this ferry boat warrants a better and more secure convenience to the public. "Complaint has been made us in reference to the bridge at W'interseat, over Hard Labor ureek, and we find that said bridge was not built according to bontract, and Is now regarded us unsafe. "The building of two bridges across Insignificant streams near Strom's mill, we find to be entirely unnecessary and a useless expenditure of public funds, more especially so as no bridges have been built where the same were absolutely necessary in the same vicin ll j". 1 lie online ncruss oij; oiuveii ? gretu, ut Stone's mill, we find entirely unsafe, allthough the same is newly built and should be iu a perfect condition. "We find that the furniture and interior of our Court House is a disgrace to a county of such dignity aud resources as this. We again urgently recommend that the suggestions reported by us at. a previous term of this Court, in reference to refurnishing our Court House in a manner worthy of the noble aud distinguished people who own and ocuny it, be impressed by your Honor upon our County Commissioners." While our County Commissioners have done something in furnishing the interior af the Court House at Abbeville, we preiume it was only scarcity of funds that prevented still gieater improvement, and some improvement is still going on. The public offices ofa| people should present a neat and attractive uppearance, and the comfort ot the people, who have business with the public officers should be provided for. People who come In winter to pay taxes, make returns, attend the summons of Probate Judge and Master, or who may have business in any of the offices should have a warm room iu which to transact their bus mess, anu uiu luruiLurc kiiuuiu uc wuvuulent and comfortable for officers and people. One notable Improvement which is now going on in our Court House Is In the office of the Probate Judge. The cost Is small comparatively and the Improvement great, lor all of which a grateful public will thank efficient and painstaking officers. ? DUE WEST NOW AND FOREVER. ? .#?? One of "It. S.

At the party at Donalds last week Prof. C. K. McKay anil Miss Mary White Pearson furnished the music. Mr. T.G.Ellis says "It was grand, too." "Tul!y" is a good judge. We took a peep the other day fur the first time into Prof. McCain's study. Upon the! walls hangs the portraits of scholars and! poets. A number of the Professor's close j friends have their photos "hitched" here and there. The Professor, thongh a young man, Ime u plioli'fl library of four or flv? hundred i volumes. The studio 1ms all the air of a man of letters. The Augusta Chronicle says the Hon. W. C. Beijetwill remove In about a year's time lo Atlanta. The Greenville yews says, "what does It mean So say wo. For the I'htlomatheaa Seml-Annual, which occurs in January. IS'JO, the debaters have been elected, as follows: Messrs. J. J. Grier, I J. s. Grier, H. C. Strong and \V. S. Cochrane. The Euphemian Celebration will occur in February. Mr. J. M. White is the Senior orator. On the debate from the Senior Class Messrs. M. \V. Bryson and J. L. Pressly have been chosen, and Messrs. G. G.

We never heard this text preached from before. In the evening his text was, "And Simon's wife's mother iay sick of a fever." lie got close attention. Miss Janie Wideman ran up to see friends aud kindred last week on a short visit. Mrs. J.u C. Fleming, of Laurens, is visiting Due West at present. We would say t.o"S" that when In Greenwood again we will doubtless have more time and will give him a call and see the man of the "parable," and also look at some of Greenwood's enterprises. She bears all the evidence of u thrifty city. We did not get in onr last a notice of the death of Mr. \\ m. Alewine. Our friend had been a sufferer for a long time. It was greatly hoped that a surgical operation would heal him of his nialcdy and it apparently did so lor a time, but death had set his mark upon him. He was a quiet, patient sullerer. The last time we saw him he was calm and collected, and was only watting for the change. It is understood that the family will move back to their country home. The funeral took place at Little Itlver and was numerously attended. Dr. Pressly and Prof. Hood went to Abbeville Saturday. Along with Dr. Sloan, they expected to organize a church thereon Monday. l'rof. Honner recently made a flying visit to Greenville. Mr. John I). Alewine, of Antreville, has recently returned from a visit to his brother in Arkansas. While pleased with the country in many respects, he s:tys give him old Soutli Carolina. He believes raoro money can be made here than there and that the system of labor is much better. Lt is healthier. Hands are better satisfied. He said a couple of colored people who had left this State begged him to pay their way back, aud one actually cried and said he would work for him as long as he wanted him if he would only take him back home. Mr. Alewine is an experienced and successful farmer, and ho says all this tomfoolery in the newspapers about gelling rid of the negro is all wrong; that he is the best labor we can get and to let him alone riKi'i wnere no is. .Mr. Aiewino s neatl is level on this question. Mrs. J. s. Sibley, of Augusta, On., is visiting her family here. Mr. I,. L. Abbercrotnbie dropped down on August* lor one night last week. lUio West is talking railroad. It. S. Ci. The G., A Kail road. Clinton Gazette. Messrs, Ilolshouser & Schiltz, Contractors, are now grading the road through the city limits. The line runs parallel with the Ulchrnond A Danville, crossing the street (Itroad) leading from tlie old Laurens railroad to ililOrphanage, at a point very near the old building formerly occupied by the family of Mr. l'.ill Martin, and in whicli Ihe i'ost Oilice was then kept. The work is being rapidly ami nicely done: many pannels of lence have been torn away, and some valuable shade trees felled and removed rout and branch, to make wuy for the mighty plow-share of the grand trunk like. The dirt is all broken witli a six horse plow, and Is then taken up and conveyed to the proper place, by means of two horse shovels, the latest and most perfect arrangement of the kind ever he lore seen in this part of the country. Tho side-tracks will be the longest in tho County, and the company has bought the grounds on which to build a commodious depot, warehouses and cotton platforms. The grading lor sevmllex back towards Chester has been pretty well llninlici) u|i and made ready for Ihe l ies and iron. AN HISTORICAL EVENT. THE ORGANIZATION OF A NEW CHURCH. The Associalc Keformeil Presbyterian* ut AlthrrillcOrsnnixo Tliemm'lvcs Into ? t'oii^rPKntion. The Associate He for mud Presbylerlnns at Abbeville liuve lon? hoped lo see the day when tliey could have a church of t heir own, and it now seems that their hopes are to be realized. The Associate Reformed Presbyterians, like all other congregations that imve been organized at Abbeville, have used, and will use, the l.'ourt Jlouse, in which to worship until such time as tlioy .may be able to erect a buildim* of their own. "This church is under the care of Presbytery, and that body will render moral and material support to the now conuregation. Rev. Dr. H. T. Sloan, assisted by Rev. Win. Pressly, conducted services in the Court House last Sabbath. Dr. Sloan preached in t-lie moriihii:, taking for Ills theme "the unbounded love of God, and I lie glorious reward awaiting those who remain faithful to the end." After the sermon Dr. Sloan made ft few remarks in which he stated that the Associate Reformed Presbyterian church had been organized in this county for more than a hundred years, and that he with liev. Wm. Grossly, D. !>.. had been appointed by the Presbytery to organize itfchureh at tills place. After the singing of the last Psalm, an opportunity was given to any and all who,wished to connect themselves with tins church. Prof. Wm. Ilood was requested to act as secretary. The following named persons have had their names enrolled: Mrs. W. K. Hell,Chalmers D. Haddon, R. R. Hemphill, Mrs. R. R. Hemphill, J. Hayne Mc1)111, W. O. Bradley, Mrs. w. O. liradley, Thomas 1'. Thomson, Mrs. T. P. Thomson, Mrs. J. C. Klugh, J. C. MeClaln, Mrs. J. C. MeClaln. \V. T. MeClaln, Mrs. T. W. McMillan. In the afternoon Dr Pressly preached to an attentive audieuce,composed of the members | of the new congregation, and a nnmberof visiting brethren, wlio had turned out to hear him expound the scriptures. On Monday morning, November 2(1,1889, the congregation was organized, with the following otlicers: Elders?W. O. Bradley, T. P. Thomson, J. C. MeClaln. Deacons?Chalmers D. Haddon, J. Ilayne McDlll. The otlicers will be Installed at an early day. Dr. J. Lowrle Wilson, of the Presbyterjan church of this village, was present witn nis Associate Reformed brethren, and opened the meeting with prayer, giving them liIs countenance and encouragement In the good work, upon which they were entering. The organization of a congregation of worshippers is a notable event in the history of a town, and our people will rejoice with their Associate Reformed brethren in the organization of their church. When the time comes for the erection of a house of worship the people of Abbeville will give the best evidences of brotherly love and Christian fellowship, by giving as liberally as their means will allow. Presbytery having made appointments?services may be expected twice a month. The congregation have not yet hail a meeting to formulate plans for the future, but It is presumed that such a meeting will be held before a great while, when committees will be appointed to buy a suitable lot on which to build a house, and to solicit subscriptions.

Comparatively few people ever consider the value of a good newspaper In their home. When they subscribe for one, If they ever do, they consider it an accommodation to the editor, and not an investment for themselves, $:> for a gallon of whiskey they consider well spent. Mr. Q. M.

Tlie Laurens Dramatic Club, played "Nevada" to a large bouse in the academy hall last Friday night. The plot of the play was very good and well brought out, the pathetic, the humorous, and dramatic, being all blended in a way most pleasing to their audience. Space will not allow more than a passing notice. Suttice it to say that every member played well his part, and the general rendition of the play would have done credit to a compaiiy of much broader experience.

It In Ono ol' the Itest ami Cheapest Magazines Published?The Contributors are Among the Ablest Irving Writers. ScniuxEli's Magazink for December is a Holiday number of striking beauty and stLtractivenesa In lis illustrations. and the text ol'the articles will appeal to the fancy and sympathy of readers, ralher than to their desire lor instruction In practical utlalrs. With the exception of the fourth Instalment of Harold Frederic's serial, each article is complete In tills issue. The contents Include a sy in pathetic study of life 111 the poorest quarters of New York's tenements; a vigorous end paper, sure to provoke discussion, by Edward l'helps. Esq., ex-Mi Ulster to England; a genial and discriminating review of the whole Held of American humorous drawing, by J. A. Mitchell, the founder and editor of Life; anoiher story by Mr. II. V.

In I he notable list of artists contributing to this uumtieraro Will H. Low. Howard Pyle, Kenyon Cox, Herbeit Denmnn, J. H. Twaehtman, E. II. Blashfleld, A. 1$. Frost, and C. D. Gibsou, and besides, almost all of the promtucnt humorous artists of this country. "How the Other Half Lives," by Jacob A. Kils, for many years police reporter of the Associated Press, should appeal strongly to everyone interested In practical charity. The author's long familiarity with the many phases of New York tenement life prevents Ills coloring the article with any of the false sentiment which so often disfigures work In this field, lie sees the slums as tliey are, accurately and clearly, and at the same time preserves the ready sympathy of one intensely interested In his fellow-man. The many Illustrations in this article ure not fancy sketches, !>nt are made from Instantaneous photographs taken by Mr. UilR In his strange adventures, often at considerable peril. Ex-Mlnlsicr Phelps's remarkable paper, at the end of the number, will no doubt arouse as much discussion as approval. Under the title "The Age of Words" he presents, emphatically and with the ardor of one who has felt, the evils of an age in which the opportunities to speak In public and to print are practically unlimited and unrestricted. Contemporary journalism and fiction are criticised without reserve. Many of lus stinging phrases should become current, as he has tersely expressed what sensitive and Mrminded people have long fell. There Is surely no one who can write ol' "Contemporary American Caricature" with fuller knowledge than Mr. J. A. Mitchell, of Life, under whose guidance many of the best humorous artists have been developed. His article Is filled with generous appreciation of the work done by caricaturists on all the leadlug American papers, and Is the llrst recognition of a distinct class of artists who are producing some of the most original work In this country. Seventeen of tliem contribute sketches to Illustrate Mr. Mitchell's paper. Dr. William Perry Northrup (whose "In the Steamer's Track" In thlN Magazine will be re Iliumucrcuj una kivoii his iiiipitmiuim ui ? summer trip in Brittany, describing most appreciatively and with plenty of color the religious festival known as "The Pardon of St. Anne d'Auray." This Is the most richly Illustrated paper In the number, containing pictures by six of the most skilful of American artists, and tine engravings from paintings by Jules Breton nod J)a>;iian-Bouveret. "Notes of a Sub-tropic Study" reproduces the humor and Indolence of the life of the negroes on the Bahama jslands. The Jllustnw tions, from the author's sketches, are bright and tropical. Mr. 15miner's story, "Mrs. Tom's Spree," Is a social picture of rural ' summer resort" In what the author calls the "Jim Flsk Ern" of American life. Professor Henry A. Beers contributes a delicately fanciful story, "A Midwinter Night's Dream." The serial, "In the Valley," describes a journey in the last century through the wilderness of central and western New York, to the Lake country. Howard P.vle's full-page pictures arc a flue interpretation of the text. The poems are "Evening." liy A. Lampman (Illustrated); "Montnuk Point," by Lloyd McKIm (Jarrisoti (illustrated); "Happiness," by Edith Wharton; and "At Lea Eboulements," by IXC. Scott. HAPPINESS. This perfect love can find no words to say, What words are left, still sacred for our use, That have not. suffered the sad world's abuse, And figure forth iigiadness dimmed and gray ? Let us be silent still, since words convey Hut shadowed linages, wherein we lose The fulness of love's light; our lips refuse The fluent commonplace of yesterday. Then shall we hear beneath the brooding wing Of silence what abiding voices sleep, The primal notes of nature, that outring Man's little noises, warble he or weep, The song the morning stars together sing, The sound of deep that calleth unto deep.
