LOC AL ITEiHS. "Wo are in the midst of a rainy spell ugly, gloomy fall weather. As the au tumn wanes, the more sadly and bitterly do our farmers complain of the failure of their cotton. One said to us the other day-an extremely mild, amiable, Chris tian gentleman-" this is the devilishest year that has befallen us since '39 ?" And he snapped it out with a vim and an in tensity that proved how deeply he felt what ho was saying. Knowing people hereabouts are predicting that we shall even havf a harder time next year than we have had for two years past. When wo hear such predictions, wo >"0' for some assurance that it would be better for ns hereafter than here. For with such an assurace we should pray God to take us at once. But as Hamlet says, " there's the rub." Poor, wicked wretch es, we have no such assurance, and con sequently we must stay and grin it out cotton failures, hard times, Radical rob beries, and all ! Of our Churches, the Episcopal alone will be open on Sunday next. On the evi ning of Friday, the 1st. Oc tober, the Rev. Dr. Furman will deliver at Johnston, in tho Academy, hi3 beau *eefcr,,_?entitled " The TTSPB of "Poe ?pllst about to be built at Johnston. Mr. Lebeschultz departed for New York on Saturday last, to purchase his fall and winier stock. The rest of our merchants have all returned. They all confirm the reiterated press reports of tho stagnation of business at the North. As Randall of the Constitutionalist loves to sav, wo glory in this fact. These Northern people must needs destroy the South to free negroes, and now comes their reward. Knowing the undying interest that our people always feel in the cotton ques tion, we publish for their delectation the following note: RIDGE S. C., Sept. 20th 1875. MESSRS EDITOES: At the request of our friend Mr. Absalom Horne, we took a ride down to his farm, several days since, to look at his improved cotton. He lives only about three and a half miles from Ridge Spring, and consequently in the first place, wo had a pleasant ride On arriving, we proceeded at once to ex amine and admire his crop in general. In the ramble, friend Horne called our attention to a field of peas, -which sur passes anything we ever beheld any where this side of Savannah River bot toms. On being shown his improved cotton, we were held spell-bound at tho magnificence of it. And when Mr. Horne tells us that it is the old " .Boyd's Frollhe, ' it is indeed -wrmdrous - how he has managed to bring it to such a state of perfection in tho course of five or six years. We have not seen the famous "Red Cotton" of tho Bateslmrg section, but have talked with gentlemen who have seen both, and one would infer from them that Horne's nas the advantage iu the size of the boll. We read with pleas ure a communication in your paper over tho signature of " Palmetto," and concur w'ith him entire!}" in his views The few past years in farming has furnished con clusive proof that planting cotton will not pay. We hold, however, that it will pay when it is made as a surplus crop. And to make it pay still better as such, we should plant improved seed, thereby realizing from one acre what would or dinarily be gathered from two. Such seed our friend Horne proposes to sell this fall, at reasonable rates. Planters will do well to consult their interests by buying seed of Mr. Horne. Any who doubt may convince themselves by vis iting Mr. H. The cotton stands in the field to show for itself. It is no humbug, as all will attest who have seen it Wo have seen "Cheatham's Champion" and Horne's surpasses it side by sido. Very Truly, "MAS." Attention is called to the card of John H. McDevitt m another column, in which he says Paris Simkins is not on his bo? as County Treasurer. Jesse Jones says. J'The record of McDevitt's bond in my office is a verbatim copy of the original bond. Paris Simkins's name is signed to it, and I will swear it." The Concert of tho Brahma Pootra Ministr?is at Pine House, on Friday evening last, was a great success-both as an entertainment and in a financial sense Tho immense advertising busi ness which rushes in upon us this week however, leaves us no space for further comment upon this subject. And wc regret to st?te that the Concert which was to have i>eep given In our town by the Brahma Pootras on Thursday evening next, has been indefinitely postponed >n account of the sickness of one of the troupe. We have been requested by the troupe to make this fact known. Tho ladies of Granitevillc held an En tertainment on Wednesday and Thurs day evenings of last week, for the pur pose of realizing funds to present a ban ner to the Graniteville Ride Company. We acknowledge very kindly the receipt of an invitation to attend this Enter Lain ment, and regret very much that it was out of our powor to do so. No nows of tho escaped prisoners. Snipes still Hying up the creek-and Scott and Goodman luxuriating, proba bly, in pastures green. Tho new advertisements of Mr. J. H. C'ncatliam, Mr. Alvin Hart, Mr. D. R. Durisoe, Mr. Jae. F. Boykin and Dr. W. A. Sanders, claim particular notice this week. ________ ggf We aro indebted to Coi. James A.

Hoyt .?till -ha*-Red, Rust ruuf Oats Tor sale, at ninety cents per J el, at Johnston, S.e. Jas. W. Turley Before Our Fifteen Hundred Subscribers. Chango and decay mark the progress of the centuries ! Empires totter ; mon archies are overthrown ; customs, man ners and religions pass away; panics shake the country; merchants and bank ers fail, and pay 25 cts. in the dollar ; but Jas. W; Turley, Augusta's most popular Dry Goods Merchant, always comes to time-zs sound, as enterprising, as taste ful, as courteous, as bonevolont, as well prepared, as ever. -* i not only always comes to time, but always proves his shrewdness and sagacity by coming reg ularly before the fifteen hundred readers of tho Advertiser-saying nothing of the largo army who ignominiously borrow the old sheet He comes before you anew this week. Attention, ye fifteen hundred -every mothers sou of you! Which Are The Greater, Moody and Sankey or Jclfcrson and Ransom ? Jefferson ?fe Ransom immeasurably! The}' insure our lives and briny: peace to our souls-and to the souls of our wives Jjand children, and mothers^ and sisters. Whereas Moody and Sat?koy aro two vulgar tramps, who scream and sing and cavort at us until they excite our nerv ous systems beyond all endurance. Yes, Jefferson ct Ransom of the groat "Uni versal Life" of New York, are much more- effectual preachers thau Moody and Sankej'. They preach ono of their very best sermons this week in the columns of the Advertiser. Their lexi is: "Dividends, and no Misto kc.'"' By all means read this great sermon by Jeffer son ct Ransom-evangelists of " Univer sal Life." J. B. White & Co. of Augusta, as In flationists. Including our young friend, Ellet Lnndrnm. We simply mean that they have inflated the Advertiser this week with a very large new advertisement ; and that all Edgefield people who trade with them this fall and winter will leave their store immensely inflated with de light. J. B. White & Co. are fully up with the times, and announco to our readers that they have a very large and handsome stock of new goods now in store, and that they have brought them there to soil. Think of excellent Calicoes at 5? ccaf* a yard ! There are probably no merchants in tho South who can se lect a handsomer, more fashionable, or more tasteful assortment of Dry Goods than J. B. White Sc Co. Their establish ment is now packed with an endless va -rietj of prints, ladies fine and now-fash ioned dress goods, black silks, white goods, trimmings, shawls, cloa':s, and all that goes to make up the parapherna lia of comfort and elegance. And as re gards Edgefield people again, Ellet Lan drum is still with J. B. White ct Co., and will always make his compatriots feel as if they wero on their native heath. Sonic of tho prices mentioned in the new card of J. B. White it Co. this week are start ling in their cheapness. Study them well ! The Neely Institute in Augusta. Many of our readers remember Mr. Benjamin Neely, who, some years back, was so popularas a teach er on the Ridge. Xow-a-days, Mr. Neely is at the head of an extremely popular institute for YHing Ladies in Augusta. Ile sends us his card, which appears in another column. Mr. Neely's capacity and experience as a teacher are most undoubted, and as an educator he is wort h v of all confidence. Since We Must Hide Our Fine Pro portions in Tailor's Trash. Since decency calls upon us men to hide our fine proportions in tailor's trash, by all means let us keep in mind the man who makes and keeps the most stylish trash. Of course this is August Dorr, of Augusta. And upon second thought, it is a blessing to main'- of us that we have a Dorr within reach. For truly Dorr covers up many an anatomy that would'otherwise present a moving spectacle of humanity. Read Dorr's new card in another column-where lie offers to cover you nicely for ?15 00 ; beauti fully for ?40.00 ; and royally for ?l'P. And take notice, ye who are soon to be bless ed, that Dorr makes a specialty of Wed ding Suits. DOIT also keeps the best Shirts, Underwear, Hosiery Ac, cte, lo bc found South of New York. Interesting to Musicians. Just think of getting an Elegant Piano for only if 1.25. The enterprising pub lishers of that valuable magazine the Southern Musical Journal have purchas ed a superb ?1,000 Prize Piano which will be rallied among One Thousand Subscri bers.

For if Quinn ct Pendleton were both gone, what would bo the use of trying to livo any longer ? Quinn ct Pendleton have dissolved, and .vhilo Pendleton is still there, Quinn, we believe, goes to set up his rest in Green ville of our State. Mr. Pendleton an nouucSS himself in our paper to-day, and wo hope everybody will read his card. Pendleton's is far tho most delightful place in Augusta, and it is at Pendleton's that the smallest amount of money will purchase you tho greatest amount of pure pleasure-Books, Magazines, Illus trated Papers, Music, Stationery, etc., ?tc, ?tc. Barley, Wheat, Rye, Oats, Millet and Hungarian Grass. Miller ct Bisell, of Augusta, wholesale Grocers and Commission Merchants, by their card in to day's Advertiser, solicit tho attention of the people of this section to their lar^c supply of Grain and Gras* Seeds. They aro extensive dealers and straightforward gentlemen, and wo take pleasure in recommending them to our readers. Lieut. G W. Burton, of Edgefield, is still with this house-and always ready tu exert himself particularly in the s< r vice of customers from this side of the river. A First-Class Furniture Pince.
