Atlanta is to have another Ex
position this year that will eclipse
anything she has ever had.
Dr. Hamilton, surgeon-general
of the United States, sa) s that
grip is more to be feared than
cholera._
Gen. Hampton has replied to
Messrs. Stokes and Evans and his
answer is as weak as picnic lemon
ade.-Press and Reporter.
Reports ?ome from Europe of
intense cold and great suffering j
occasioned by it. Many persons
have been frozen to death.
The New York city banks now
hold deposits of $475,000,000 more
than one-third the entire sum of
money j gold, silver and paper, in
the United States.
An eminent statistician esti
mates that during the course of an
ordinary life the average man will
eat seven four-horse wagon loads
more than &is good for him.
Gov. Brown of Kentucky, has
delivered a strong message against
the railroads. He sorter believes
in Tillmauism. The railroads
have too much power to oppress.
Adelina Patti, the world renown
ed singer, is now making a concert
tour of this country. She will
sing in Atlanta on Thursday. Her
voice is said to be as wonderful as
ever.
The boiler of an engine of a
cotton gin burst on the plantation
of Senator Peake in Union county
on Jan. 3rd, killing two white men
and one negro and wounding five
others.
The Manufacturers' Record
shows, by interviews with leading
bankers, that the Southern farmers
are getting on a cash basis and are
in a more prosperous condition
than ever before. The Record well
says that this is the best New
Year's gift that could be made.
Simonton got Bond's place,
Brawley got Simouton's place, and
it is said that Chamberlain will
run for Congress in Brawley's
placo.^ It seems that the News and
Courier has sat down upon Izlar's
aspirations for a seat in Congress.
Is there any significance ;r} this?:|

Cattle at the North frequents
suffer from tuberculosis, or con
sumption. As the contagion rapidly
spreads to other cattle and to con
sumers of milk from the infected
cows the animals are invariably
killed. Seventeen of ex-Vice
President Levi P. Morton's fine
herd of Guernsey cattle will bo
killed this week, as they have j
shown symptoms of this disease.
The income tax, which it is
highly probable that the present
Congress will adopt, will be a levy
of 2 per cent, on all incomes of j
$4,000 and upwards. It is estimated
there are only 85,000 persons and
corporations in the United States
that have incomes sufficient to
make them liable to this tax. The
estimated yield per annum will be
$30,000,000. England now gets
$65,000,000 from her income tax.
The ?Governor of Kentucky, in
his message to the legislature,
takes a bold stand agaist the rail
roads. He asks for the passage
of a law empowering the Railway
Commissioners of the State to ad
just freight and passenger rates,
and as for the proposed absorption
of the Chesapeake & Ohio and
Southwestern property ty the
Louisville & Nashville, the execu
tive announces that he will fight
it to the last ditch.
The New York World has ob
tained the opinions of distinguish
ed men in all parts of the United
States on the subject of an income
tax. Nearly all the governors fa
vor the tax. The following is Gov.
Tillman's reply to the World's re
quest for his views :
''The income tax is the only kind
of taxation that will, in a measure
relieve the masses of the people of
some of their burdens, and it will
enable the government to obtain a
revenue from hundreds of millions
of dollar? that now escape taxa
tion. T'ie income tax is now one
of the crying necessities of the
times."
According to Hicks, the St. Louis
weath er prophet, there are three
stormy periods set down for
January. The first is from the 4
to 9 ; the second, 15 to 20 ; the
third, 27 to 29. The year will open
with a cold wave passing Eastward.
Kain and snow may be expected
from 5 to 7, with a cold wave to
follow. Warmer weather will come
about the 10th followed by rain
and snow Sharp wintry 12 to
16. Alternate thawing and freezing
will continue during the month.
The month will close fair and
frosty.
Dun and Bradstreet say that the
times haven't improved any yet,
but that's no news to ns.
Honduras is having a little war
now. Gen. Bonilla, of Nicaragua,
has invaded that territory and is
cleaning 'em up.
A. S. Townes, ex-Mayor of
Greenville, has been appointed
Internal Revenue Collector for this
State by President Cleveland.
According to Secretary Carlisle
there will be a deficiency of $28,
000,000 in the national exchequer
at the close of this fiscal year.
Col. D. P. Duncan, of some
prominence in the Alliance, has
rented the plantation of his father
in-law, Col. J. C. Richardson,
near the city of Sumter, and will
maka his home there.
Nineteen negres and three
white men have been arreted in
Spartanburg for whipping Davis,
a constable, a short time since.
More arrests will follow and severe
punishment it is hopee will be
inflicted on the guilt}'.'
Thirty-thousand families in New
York were evicted from their homes
this winter. This is a worse record
than even Ireland ever made. In
that country, in 1880, the year
most prolific of evictions, the re
corded cases numbered less than
one-tenth as many in a population
more than three times as great as
New Yor1.:.
Every railroad in South Caro
lina that Chamberlain could in
fluence, either directly or indi
rectly, has tendered only so much
tax as each road thought right and
proper. All other roads in the
State, we understand have "pon ted'"
up in full. Our little Cumberland
Gap has paid its tax in full with
out discount or murmur.
Thu State board of control lias
issued a circular to all the munici
pal authorities in towns where dis
pensaries are located, informing
them that unless they assist in en
forcing the dispensar}' law, they
will get none of the profits. This
looks fair. If you have a part of
the cake you ought to help pay
for it.
The champion long-haired wo
man of the Lone Star State, of the
United States and of the world ia
Miss Asaneth Philpot, who was
formerly, if not at present, a resi
dent of Gainesville, Tex. lu 1884
she had a hard spell of fever and;
the doctors, in order to be able to
apply their remedies more
effectually, shaved off her hair.
The present phenomenal growth
dates from that time, her tresses,
which are of a beautiful golden
hue, measuring 11-feet 8 inches at
last account.
The following act relating to the
formation of new counties in this
State was passed at the recent
session of the legislature;
An Act providing for the For
mation of New Counties in this
State.
Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the
State of South Carolina, now met
and sitting in General Assembly,
and by the authority of the same :

going provisions have been com
plied with,
EDGEFIELD DISPENSARY.
The Edgefield dispensary has
turned over to the town treasurer
as profits for the month of
December the handsome sum of
$325.40. Pretty good for one month
taking into consideration Anderson
Brannon's song that :
''The times are gettin' hard
And money gettin'scace."
This amount with sums hereto
fore paid our town treasurer by
Dispenser Davis runs the figures
up to $768.22, which the town
has received from the dispensary
during the last six months. The
county treasurer has also receivod
a like amount.
The total sales for December
were $3371.28, of which $2507.97
were forwarded to the State Com
missioner, $650,80 paid to the town
Df Edgefield and county treasurer,
rhe balance, $152.50, being applied
to the expense account.
The total sales of the Edgefield I
dispensary for the first six months ii
rf its existeuce were $10,685.55. '
PICTI?EE OP A HEROINE.
A Lonff-Missed Painting Turns
Up in New Jersey.
The State.
Some time ago. when there was
some talk about having designed
anew coat-of-arms of 1 he State,
the idea of having the female
figures thereto exact likenepses of
some of the Revolutionary heroines
of South Carolina was suggested.
The name of Emily Geiger was the
first mentioned, but nowhere could
any trace of a likeness of her be
souud.
Now comes a letter to some of
the descendants of her family,
stating that the orginal picture of
her capture by Flagg, showing her
as she was-a painting-is in the
possession of Stacy G. Potts, of
Treuton, New Jorsey, and could
be ob'ained.
This letter also gives the fol
lowing interesting sketch of
Miss Geiger's heroic deed: "Lee
ascertained that Rawdon had de
termind to abandou Ninety-Six,
and to form a force under Col.
Stuart, whom he had ordered to
advance from Charleston to Fri
day's Ferry at Granby; while Col.
Cruger, with his fiarrison, and
those Loyalists with their property
who might choose to follow were
to march directly to Orangdburg.
While Rawdon was thus preparing
to abandon the upper country,
Sumter intercepted a letter to that
officer from Col. Balfour in Char
leston, informing him that he had
recalled Stuart after he had com
menced his march for Friday's
Ferry. This letter was sent to
Greene, who immediately sent his
hospital and heavy baggage, then
at Winnsboro, to be forwarded to
Camden, while he prepared to
pursue Rawdon with all his force.
He sent Lee to reach the front of
of the British army before it could
reach Friday's Ferry, and dis
patched messages tn Marion and
Sumter ordering them lo fake a
similar position. It is said that
the message to Sumter from
Greene was conveyed hy Emily
Geiger, the daughter of a German
planter in Fairfield district. He
prepared a letter to Sumter but
none of his men appeared willing
j to attempt the hazardous service,
for the Tories were on the alert,
as Rawdon was approaching the
Con^aree. Greene was delighted
by the boldness of a young girl,
not more than eighteen years of
age. who came forward and volun
teered to carry the letter to Sum
ter. With his UFual caution he
communicated the contents of the
letter to Emily, fearing she might
lose it on the way. She mounted
a fresh horse and crossing the
Wateree at the Camden Ferry,
pressed on towards Sumter's camp.
Passing through a dry swamp on
the second day of her journey, she
was intercepted by some Tory
scouts,coming from the direction
of Greene's army. She was an ob
ject of suspicion and was taken
tc a house on the edge of the
swamp and confined in a room.
The)r then sent for a woman to
search her person. No sooner was
she alone than she ate up Greene's
letter piece by piece. After a while
the matron arrived, made a careful
search but discovered nothing.
With many apologies Emily was
allowed to pursue her journey.
She reachad Sumter's camp, com
municated Greene's message, and
soon Rawdon was flying before the
Americans towards Orangoburg.
Emily Geiger afterwards married
Mr. Threewitle, a rich planter on
the congaree,"

The fight for a reduction of the

began his speech on Monday. It
seems that there is scarcely a
doubt of the passage of a tariff

equally certain that an income tax
will follow.

NOTICE TO INVENTORS.
There was never ajtitnc in the his
tory of our country when the demand
for inventions and improvements in
the arts and sciences generally was so
great as now. The conveniences of
mankind in the factory and work
shop, the household, on the farm, and
in official life, require continual ac
cessions to the appurtenances and
implements of each in order to save
labor, time, and expense. The political
change in the administration of the
govern ment does not affect the progress
of the American inventor, wi o being
on the alert' and ready to perceive the
existing deficiencies, does not permit
the affairs of government to deter him
from quickly conceiving the remedy to
overcome existingdiscrepencies. Too
great care cannotbe exercised in choos
uga competent and skillfully attor
ney to prepare ami prosecute an ap
plication for patent. Valuable intersts
have been lost and destroyed in in
numerable instances by the employ
ment of incompetent counsel, and
especially is this advice applicable to
those who adopt the "No patent, no
pay" system. Inventors who entrust
their business to this class of attorneys
do so af imminent risk, as the breadth
and strength of the patent is never
considered in view of a quick endeavor
to get an allowance and obtain tin
fee then due. THE PRESS CLAIMS
