Mr. B. B. Evans, who has just

all kinds and everywhere as simply
"out of sight."
Col. R. B. Watson, Hon. J. B.

are being spoken of for the State
Senate, vice Dr. Timmerman, who
will certainly be Lieutenant Gov

The corn crop in this county is
the finest we have had for years.
The cotton crop is also good. Peas
and potatoes are fine but there is a
little grass here, there, and every
where, too.
Thos. Carlyle says, "we are firm
believers in the maxim that, for
all right judgment of any man or
thing, it is useful, nay, essential, to
see his good qualities before pro
nouncing on his bad."
A tablespoonful of unslacked
lime, one of spirits turpentine, one
of kerosene, one of common salt,
mixed with two quarts of meal in
a slop, is recommended as an un
failing remedy for hog cholera.
Dr. Timmerman will be Lieuten
ant Governor beyond the possi
bility of a doubt. Why then
should not the campaign for his
shoes be made now, so as to save
the expense of a special election?
The campaign meetings are now
in full blast. The meetings at Mt.
Willing and Ridge Spring have
already been held ; about five hun
dred people attended the former
and about two hundred the latter.
The "Movement" is bumping on

Dr. L. R. Gwaltney, who was
quite sick for some days last week,
had recovered sufficiently on Sun
day to fill his pulpit and preached
a most impressive discourse from
the text, "Therefore, my beloved
brethren, be ye steadfast, unmova
ble, always abounding in the work
of the Lord, forasmuch as yeknow
that vour labor is not in vain in
the Lord."
? Trees are now to be felled by
electricity. The modus operandi
is as follows: A platinum wire,
having been stretched oat between
two poles, it is heated until it be
comes incandescent. It is then
drawn tight against the tree
through which it immediately pro
ceeds to burn its way. It is said
that a tree by this process can be
felled in about one-eighth of the
time it would take to saw it down.
Capt. W. Scott. Allen, of ridge
field, was in the city for a while
yesterday afternoon, and it was a
pleasure to meot and talk with
him. Capt. Allen is one of the
cst conservative of Carolinians,
and he is still in hopes that the
Palmetto State at some future time
will recover from the calamity
which seems now to hang over her
like a pall. And when the recovery
ornes there is no man in the State

If you want to place a small boy
in one spot where you will be sure
to find him five minutes later, put

The rain these days is like the
Reform Movement, it doesn't seem
to know that enough, even of a
good thing, is a plenty.
Dog days commenced last Satur
day, and it.didn't rain a drop. Now
you can make your own predictions
as to the weather, and do as well

Col. E. J. Goggans, one of the
silver-tongued orators of Clouds
Creek, has been brought out for
the Legislature by his friends in
this week's ADVERTISER.
On Friday night last Capt. J. H.
Tillman shot himself accidentally
in the left breast. The wound is
not serious, though painful, and
he will soon recover.
We call attention to the adver
tisement of Dr. W. D. Ouzts. He
is breeding Golden and Silver
Wyandottes, Barred Plymouth
Rocks, and Buff Leghorns. His
stock originates from th? leading
English and American strains.
An exchange says that the town
mau thinks all a farmer has to do
is to set under the shade and watch
things grow and the farmer thinks
all that has to be done in town is
to sit behind a counter and rake
in money. This is the reason every
farmer wants to move to town and
every town man wants to move to
the country.
An old Seech lady who had DO
relish for modern church music, ,
was expressing her dislike of the
singing of au anthem in her own
church one day when a neigh
bor said : "Why, that is a very old
anthem ! David sang that anthem
to Saul." To this the old lady re
plied: "Weel, Weel! I noo for.the
first time understan' why Saul
threw his javelin at David when
the lad sang for him."
There will be a competitive ex- 1
amination held on the 24th of Au- 1
gust, in this county, under the
charge of the county school com
missioner, for a scholarship iu .

amount sufficient to pay tuition
for one year. The appointee is to !
enter the lowest college class. For

Messrs. J. J. Bell and W. F.
Dobey left our town on Thursday
last for Rock Hill, at which place
they have secured building con- ,

him, Mr. Dobey's will remain in
Edgefield for the present, but may
join him later on.
An Important Decision.
J. Wm. Thurmond, Esq,, has
just won an important case in the
Supreme Court-important, not on
account of the amount involved,
but the novelty of the points made
by counsel and decided by the
Court. The case is entitled, "E.
B. Sample against the London and
Lancashire Insurance Company."
Messrs. Sheppard Bros. represent
ed the defendant.
Thc Rains.
Have done considerable damage
in the flat, sandy, and bottom
lands of our county. One man
tells us of a hundred acre field of
cotton which he predicts will not
make even one bale. One farmer
we hear of is barring off his
cotton with a Dixie Boy sweep
and throwing the grass in a big
ridge in the middles where it can
flourish or fade. This was perhaps
the best solution to be made of the
matter, but it is aquestion whether
it is not better to let the grass re
main in th*1 cotton than to try to
root it out and thereby ruin the
cotton itself. In the clay and roll
ing lands the outlook is much bet
ter.
The Late Capt. Ira P. Culbreath.
Fortunately for the family of
this gentleman, only a short time
before his death, he secured
a policy of insurance on his life
in the Union Mutual Life Insur
ance Company for $1,000. And
within nine days after the proof of
death, etc., had been received at
the home office, Mr. B. B. Evans,
the manager of the company for
South Carolina, was prepared to
pay the claim. Capt. Culbreath
was comparatively a poor man, and
the sum of one thousand dollars
placed in good hands by the com
pany for his little motherless chil
dren was a blessing indeed. The
prompt payment of this claim by
the Union Mutual, before it was
due, and without discount, speaks
well this solid old insurance corn
company.
Mrs. Emma Addison.
On Monday, July 23rd, Mrs.
Emma Addison, eldest child of
Mrs. Virginia and the late John L.
Addison, and wife of Eldred Addi
son, Esq., died at her home near
Ninety Six. She suffered much
during her last illness, but bore
all with resignation to her Savior's
will, and although young, with
many bright years of prospective
happiness on earth before her, she
left husband and children in the
hands of God and gladly joined
the throng of white robed saints in
heaven. Gentle and affectionate
in disposition and blessed with
every domestic virtue this dear
lady will be greatly missed and
mourned. A son and two daughters
survive her, and to these and her
stricken husband and other near
relatives we tender our heartfelt
sympathies.

Four New Counties.
One of our correspondents this
week proposes that in a certain
contingency Edgefield county Bhall
be divided into four counties, each
county cornering in the centre of
our public Bquare ; that the names
of these counties shall be Timmer
raan, Talbert, Tillman, and Butler ;
that our own town, sweet,
smiling village of the plain, shall
be made the hub for the four.
Due West Female College.
This famed institution presents
its claims to the patronage of a
discriminating public in our ad
vertising columns this week. Does
any young lady in Edgefield want
to go to college next session? Does
she want a thorough education?
Does she want special advantages
in music and art? Does she want
a school with a good health record?
Does she want a pleasant school
home? Does she want a satisfac
tory boarding department? Does
she want value received for her
money? Then attend the Due
West Female College, and she will
get all these things and more.

MR. EDITOR: Old Wells Demo

first business was to revise the club
roll which was done. Immediately
there arose a dispute as to whether
any new members who had par
ticipated in the organization of
any other club should be received
in the club or not. Finally a mo
tion was made and the vote taken
yes or no, the majority being yes.
Whereupon J. C. Swearengen, lead
er of the antis, declared that there
was a misunderstanding as to the
vote and requested those opposed
to get in line. He led, and soon
these was nine or ten in line. The
Tillman men stood their ground
and declared that they had won by
a fair vote and would not get into
line, but that they might count
them where they were. The leader
ran bis eyes up and down his line
and then glanced across where the
Tillman men were and Baw at a
glance that the latter were largely
in the majority, and immediately
moved to adjourn. The Tillman
men opposing the last.
Whereupon the antis, with the
pr?sident, made a break for their
horses, and were soon out of sight;
meanwhile a deafening yell went
up for the oue gallus crowd. As
soon as order waB restored E. J.
