In Time For LnNt Week, but Crowded Out. Greenwood, S. C., Jane I f, 1892. Editor Ilarinon of the McCormlck News was In town Saturday. He gets up a live read' able paper, and has accomplished an almost impossible feat in establishing a newspaper at a small town. Jim Is a brainy fellow and is a power for prohibition and the new county measure. Mr. Kd Lukewlre, the fireman who "S<: heroically leaped iroiu his engine into the Auuusta canal and rescued from drowning, a little iiirl who was knocked off the trestle. her, runs on the "picayune" and spends every nightand Sunday here. Wo has a very masslnnlng appearance and seems embarrassed by the notoriety given him by the press for his act of bravery. lie Is just the sort of man in whom we might expect these latent principles, only awaiting tne opportunity to develope Into a full fledged hero. Mr. and Mrs. E. tC. Snead leaves on Friday for an extended trip through Virginia. The occasion for the visit is the marriage of Mr. Snead's brother. The little orphans ate coming Into their home rupldly, and any one passing that way can carry a basket, of fruit or vegetables, all of which will tic gratefully received. Dr. Lafl'crty had a good house Thursday night, and in bis own humorous and interesting way kept them highly entertained lor two hours. Many however were disappointed mat he did not deli ver his renowned lecture on "luck and pluck." We met our irlend Charlie Langston of the Anderson Intelligencer Saturday, on his way to Abbeville to visit Editor Wilson, it may be they wanted to compare notes on running a good newspaper, or discuss the best tactnods of securing a wife, as both are bordering on to bachelorhood. Thus far it has been of their own will I suppose, (both being handsome, entertaining and prosperous,) but now they are nearer tne rapids and it will require a little casting about, and a harder pull, yet "where ttiere is a will there is a way," "now Is the accepted time," "faint heart never won fair lady," etc., etc. / For a lack of something better to fill in with, and because of its application to our condition and more particularly its peculiar automatic and adjustable construction?being easily applied to either set of our candidates according to the sway of the reader?the following from a western journal is reprodnced here: Everybody is a Farmer. The time was when tlie farmer was called an ignoramus and a clodhopper. He was considered a hewer of wood and a drawer of water, and nobody among the "elite," and above all nobody among th j oflice-holding aristocracy of the country, wou>d have leit complimented in being called a lariner. Now every fellow who wants an office is a farmer, a thoroughbred, horny-handed, suu-hurncd farmer, according to his own representations. A tVw weeks ago we had an inquiry is to how many farmers were in the Congress of the (lilted States. We do not know a single simon-pure farmer, in either branch of Congress. Hut there are men there who own farms, and men there who live on farms, but If w<- were going out to shoot farmers, we should never snap a cap at any one of these fellows, li is one thing to he a farmer, a man who tills the ground for a II veil hood, who knows troui sad personal experience all the injustice thai has been Intiicted upon the farmer, who knows what it is not to be able to meet his indebtedness, because he is rubbed ol his profits bi rings and monopolies, anil whose bands are hard with toil, and it is quite another thing to live on a larm, swing in a hammock under the trees in Summer, board In town in Winter, and have such a generous bank account that it does not make the slightest difference whether the farm makes a profit or is conducted at a loss. It is not dllticult to tell a farmer, a real, genuine fanner as soon as you see him. Every calling gives certain peculiarities to the men who tollow it. The lawyer, doctor, minister and editor, as a rule, possess peculiarities that distinguish them as members of their professions. So does the farmer; and when the average politician poses as a farmer, It reminds us of the fable of the fox and the skunk. The fox returning io its hole found it occupied by a skunk "What are you?" asked the fox. The skunk thought deception was wise and replied: "I am a fox." "You are a fox?" "Yes." "Well, you do not look 11 ?e a fox, you do not talk like a fox, and you do not smell like a fox, find I don't believe that you are a fox." The average politician; seeking office, who clulms to be a farmer, is the skunk professing to be something else Hut tiie time Is passed when the fanner can be lied to with impunity. They know a skunk from a fox and a real farmer from a snide one. And what Is very funny many ot those men who claim to be farmers and to love farmers, aud to be ready to die for the tanners' Interest", have been in office hall their lives and never dlu one blessed thing to relieve agriculture of the burdens under which it groaned. Miss Mary Atkinson Is expected here in a 1c\y days. She coines with the expectation of teaching music. Her terms are reasonable and she will leach at the hoire of the pupil. She brings high credentials, having a diploma from a leading conservato'ry in the East, after taking aspcclal course of training with a view to teaching. Dr. W. B. Mill wee Has returned irom r;orence where lie attended u meeting of all the independent cotlon seed mills in this State. He was well pleased with the result of tlie meeting and the business outlook. lie was delighted, even charmed with Florence and the hospitality of the Florintlnes. As one of the stockholders he also attended their meeting in Charleston, of the refinery, which he says is In a nourishing condition. Jack Allen, the hanusome and courteous baggage master on the "picayune," Is quite a invorite with our people as well as those I along the line. He ir ever ready to do any I favor for the traveling public not iu conflict with the duties of his ollice. | Rev. John McLees and his bridespent a few : days here at the home of his childhood last week, as they returned from their tour of the eastern hemisphere. ' n.irHn Mrfjns lost her valuable horse from founder last week. Mr. R.O. McLees delivered an address on India in the Methodist Church Sunday afternoon. I take pleasure in adding my testimony to what huH already been said by "1'roupel" reliillvetolbe worthiness of Mr. Marlon Car| wile. Though not intimately aequalnted I will) him it has been my privilege to beat Ills house. I found him a nigh-toned Christian gentleman struggling hard with his one I h g lor the maintenance of an aged mother i and blind sister. The people can surely give [ him some oflice by which he can make a llv| ins: easier. He is fully competent but never ] in my knowledge lias he asked for any. We should not consider that having lost one or I even two limbs in the war. a license tootllee, I aside from competency, but I am sure, if the food people of his community will induce him to run for an oflice lie can All, and give him their endorsement, that Ureenwood will remember him on the day ol election regardless of factional bias. I will add that Troupe j did not even intimate that Mr. t'arwile wanted or would accept otllee. It is purely a suggestion of my own. It was the happy privilege of this scribe to I attend the celebration of the Ainelian Liter nry society of JJue West j'emiue uhickc iuau I Friday evening. Scarcely liail the shadows ! of twllightbegan to creep athwart the campus, before every available seat In the capacious chapel was occupied by the beauty, the chivalry. anil the learning of that little village of letters. The exercises began with an open lug chorus "Kiom shore to shore." alter which followed at: address of welcome by Miss Kate Xeel.

As we approached Ked river I notice the frequent i stoppages made by the train, and learned on i inquiring that the water was rising rapidly , along the tracK on accouut of a recent break on the levpe several miles above Shreveport, and the officials expected a washout which occurred on Sunday night, washing up the track for several hundred yards, and rushing through at thirty miles per hour and to coni Mderabie depth?making the road impassable lor many weeks. On Monday morning it was noticed that the approach to the bridge had sunk several feet, caused by the water washing out the stone piers, next the bank. At eleven o'clock the span went down and the embankment was washed rapidly way; it will cause great delay In repairing besidescostingagreatamount of money. The business of the city will be greatly Injured, and all seem depressed, as well they may be. On account of the washout I was compelled to return or to get around the washout, which Is sixteen miles from Shreveport to go a distance of one hundred and seventy-five miles by boat, but to give you a description I would not attempt. I hope, I will never witness such a sight again. Just imagine for one hundred miles down the ri*'er and 011 an average fifteen miles from bonk to bank in width, comprising the finest cotton plantations In the South?"\ll underwater. Houses, stables, barns, and everything swept away. Sometimes you will see a small patch of corn not entirely out of sight, a few blades showing above the water. . Most ol the people and stock have been removed, but some are yet remaining huddled togetheron the levee that still remain In places. I saw whites and blacks, cattle, mules and bogs all standing along on a short levee perhaps two or three feet high and not more than three feet wide on top, crowding each other for standing room, and the levee being washed away at each end. They were waiting for a boat to relieve them. No one can realise such a scene without witnessing it. After leaving the river we entered Loggy Bayou thence up the stream Into Lake Brlsttno Into and up the Dorcheat to the railroad bridge to connect with the train. On the whole rout nothing but desolation presented itself. ' The river above Shreveport for four hundred miles has caused the same amount of damage; the whole of the lands are covered with water; all the plantations bave been abandoned, and the negroes are flocking Into the city. Nothing will Induce them to work. They have been offered twenty-five cents per hour, but they refuse to work for that; they expect the Government to feed them. All the lands from this place to Vicksburgh are being covered rapidly, caused by breaks in the levees on the west side of the Mississippi river. No breaks have yet taken place between Vicksburgh and Memphis, but the Yazoo river has backed up and covered thousands of acres of land all In cultivation. Most of the productive lands in Arkansas are now under water. The general opinion of the larmers Is that no crops can be made on the greater poitlon of the land, as none of It can be planted in less than fifteen days, and that Is not probable, a8all the rivers are rising or at astand, but reports are that a heavy rain has fallen in Texas and Indian Territory, and that will cause a rise in Red river agnin. Heavy rains are reported In Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska which will keep the Mississippi up for somerime. and It will be Impossible to raise a crop after the water fafls. The last overflow we had was in'90, but It was mostly gone on or about the tenth n' June, It was at its highest on May the 14'i.. Crops were planted and pretty good crop* were made. Now It will be at leust one month later than it was in that year. H. T. T. FARMERS' MEETING. The Action Which they Took on Sale Day?The Resolutions which they Adopted.

Dr I i ..ii...r iv.omi'dv was fast ebbing away, and al Ol DUMIietiS.

C., on the first Thursday in July next, composed of delegates who are in favor of said demands from the several counties composing the Third Congressional District, for the purpose of having an expression of the views of those who are or who may expect to become candidates for Congress from said Congressional District, upon these important questions, and after which to suggest for the position of Congressman from tills Congressional District, the name of such one of said candidates, as, in the opinion of said Convention, would most ably represent them In Congress. Therefore be it resolved, 1st.

That to that end the reformers of the several Democratic clubs in this county be requested to send up delegates to a conference to be he'd at this place on next Salesday for the purpose of electing delegates to said Congregional Convention. " :Srd. That the number of delegates from the several clubs be the same as that to which said clubs are eutltled in the County Democratic Club. J. H. Morrah, \V. It. r.ullock, President. Secretary. A CHANGE OF SENTIMENT, ? ? One Abbeville Jury Receives the Endorsement of Public Opinion. Anderson Intelligencer. The rase against Singleton A. Mcintosh, charged with the murder of James N. Newby, "" 'lm '?Jth of Depember last. whs tried in Abbeville iast week. The prisoner, who was convicted of murder, was defended by four of the ablest members of the Abbeville 15ur, while the prosecution was conducted alone by Solicitor Ansel. The prisoner comes from one of the best and wealthiest families in his county, and had a large number of intelligent witnesses In his behalf. The defence put up the old plea of insanity, which had become quite a familiar excuse for taking the life of a man in that county, but the jury rendered Its verdict in accordance with the law and testimony, and the verdict is approved by all law-abiding citizens. Abbeville county Juries have not done their duty in many murder cases since the war, " and as a consequence the county was getting up an unfavorable reputation among the good people ol the State. .Mcintosh is the first white man who has been convicted of murder iu that county in ucarly twenty years, and it was the getioral opiniou that he would be acquitted. sis he had all the wealth. Influence and legal talent desired to back him. The I verdict shows that a change of sentiment Is ' taking place,and whenever murderers are ! promptly brought to justice and miide to suffer the penalty of the law, it will have a ' wholesome effect, not only In Abbeville countv hut throughout the country.

Act of KI mines* on (he Part of Scholars for their Tenchcra. Editor Press and R&nner : Dear Sir:?On last Friday, June 10, Miss Emma Perrin and I closed the school we had conducted lor the past session. The fact that we were severing for good our relation as teachers to the scholars caused a deep feeling of sadness. A little time after reaching home we were surprised by the appearam e of a beautiful table and chair, accompanied by notes which presented these things to us with expressions of tender feeling. The articles themselves were intrinsically of value but to us the words which came with them were of more consequence, showing as they did such a pleasant remembrance. On reading them our feelings were of mingled pride and regret; nf nvlrlr- )wnnsn this net. uliowpd snoh kind damages, in auumon to a new bridge. Count the cost and see which would have been cheaper, to repair the bridge at once, or let it go until too late. Mr. (Jambrell escaped without much injury. The mules were all hurt, one very badly, and wagon completely demolished. X Another lot of the latest style straw hat just received. I*. Rosenberg & Co. feelings alter being connected with us as pupils lor several years; and of regret, that tbia connection was severed. I take this method ot thanking these young Irlends for their act, both lor Miss Emma and for myself: and to express the wish that they muy ever enjoy the kindness and care they so well deserve. Very truly yours, J. W. Thomson. ? ^ GATHERING IN THE POLLS. Efficient Work in Iichnlf of the Nchool Children or Abbeville County. School Commissioner Cowan, County Treasurer Blake and Auditor Bradley have been doing a good work for the children of Abbeville county* Through their efforts .565 additional polls have been put ou the books. Heretofore there names have not been on the books, and have escaped the payment of one dollar to the school fund. Tills good work was brought about chiefly through the efforts of Auditor Bradley who suggested the plan of publishing the poll list last year, und which proposition was most cheerfully concurred in by School Commissioner Cowan, who lias in the past given us more schools and longer terms than has ever before been given to the children. The effort of our falthtul officers to enlarge the school fund by catching the tax dodgers is commendable and should be appreciated by tbe people. In the past they have not only been polite and courteous in their offices. but hare done their ofliclal dutv with fairness aim Impartiality. This ettorl in behalf of the children is only one of their commendable otllcial acts. BROKEN BRIDGE, MiiIcm, Wiiffou*. Outs, and Men. all jfo Down. Ilonea Path, S. C\, June 17,1892. Some months ago the bridge across Broadmouth creek, one mile this side of Krwln's mill, was reported as being unsafe. The bridge received no attention, as we know of, and the consequence Is, Price Uambrelt. three mules and a top load of oats, wagon and all, become mixed up after adesceutof about, we suppose, twem.v l'eet.
