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

out of our powor to do so.

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. Each subscriber has a Free Chance,
as a premium. Remit ?1.25 at once and
secure tho Journal for one year, and a
numbered Ticket in thc rallie. Thc list
will soon be closed. Subscribo now if
you want a chance to win tho piano. Tho
Journal is well worth the ?1.25, and sub
scribers cannot lose a penny by the ven

o. "?ur readers to tho advertisement oi
Messrs. Poole Sc Hunt, bespeaking for
theso gentlemen the favorablo considera

chinery included in their varied list, as
published in our columns. The}- have
on hand a very large stock of miscella

Quinn Gone, Hut Pendleton Still
There ?
Pendleton still there!-and wc might
say, Ged be praised ! 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.
