T. Miller, on February 14, 1S95, at the residence of the bride's father, Mi. V* T.Norwood, Mr. William D. Norris, of Edgefield County, to Miss Maggie L. Norwood, of Abbeville County. We hear that Capt. Greneker, the popular conductor of our road, has been, or will soon be, transferred to the Atlantic Coast Line. This change will be regretted by all who have been so fortunate as co ride with the Cap tain on "Old Tamblin." Rev. A. W. Lamar, of Galveston Texas, is conducting a series of meet ings in the First Baptist church of Augusta, Georgia. His sermons are making a deep impression. Brother Lamar is a native of Beecii Island, son of the late Col. Thos.G. Lamar, the hero of Secessionville. Now that we've thawed out, let us rejoice that we are still here, although somewhat nipped. Let us also observe, as one of ihe consequences of the late period of phenomenal cold, that prices at Ramsey & Bland's have not shared in the general rise, but as here tofore, remain below zero. Some weeks ago we sent a package of sand, to the Scientific American, sent to us by Mr.-Burrus, suppos ed to be monazite. That paper replied that there were traces of raona2i"te in the sand but not enough to pay for the separation; but supplemented this statement by saying, "but Edgefield is a monazite region and you ought to find it there." The manufacture of stockings and gloves of paper has been started. The rticles are light and very cheap. The abric is made of paper yarn, spun ike other yarn, and then woven in the ame way as other cloth, a soft nap eing jfiven to it in the process. An old farmer in Spartanburgcoun y says that the winter before the war, here was no weather for plowing rom the last of November to first cf April. During that time it was only now and then that the plows could ron. But when it did hold up, all hands went to work and the first of May found them all right. In the win er of 1866 or 1807, there was not a sin gla day in March when the ground was ry enough to plow. Dr. Frank Butler planted corn the first of last week, and by-the-way he : is the first man in E. C. to plant s grain. Frank says the bud worms eat up April planted corn, and the drouth catches May planted corn. A lady tells the Cnristian Advocate that she heard a colored preacher say! "De fo' part of de house will please sit down, fo' de hind part cannot see thc fo' part if de fo' part persist in stand in'befo'de hind part, to de utter ob sculusion ob de hind part by de fo: part. There is a colored giri in Augusta who writes her name as follows : "Miss Lizzie Lee Flower-of-the country Pink-of-the-Four-Mile-Post Honor Elizabeth Laura Jones Mary Lou Ashley Bush Viney George Smith.' And she is in good health and spirits! 1 The Keowee Courier says that a par ty of civil engineers are now survey ing a route through Oconee County for Col. Boone's new railroad from I Knoxville to tidewater. They are run ning the road five miles west of Wal halla and will come down by "West minster and Townville to Anderson 'ihis is the old Blue Ridge railroad route and will come through Edge field, if it comes through anything. i Cotton has advanced one cent a ? pound within the past ten days, but we hope no farmer in Edgefield Coun ty will be fooled thereby into the be lief that it is "gwine ter go to ten cents." Don't forget that you have been saying for the last fifty years that, they run cotton up in the spring to make us plant more of it, and down in the fall so that we will get nothing for it." And in all your gettings get wisdom. "An Augusta man says he recently stopped in a village where the hotel had two large rooms, one for the men and one for the ladies. Half of each room was made into beds. Ile says there was a sign hung out on the porch which read, "Persons wishing to take a bath will please notify Mr. Smith a half hour beforehand, so that he can have ;he creek dammed up." The other night a St. Louis police men arrested a somnambulist who was wandering about the streets in his nightdress. When the somnambulist awoke he exclaimed : "Surely you are not going to arrest me; lam not re sponsible, as I am a somnambulist." "1 don't care what church you are a member of," said the oliicer. "You can't walk the streets of tit. Louis in your shirttail if you belong to all the churches in the city." The man who gets the fewest letters complains the most of the manage ment ol' the postoflice, the man who complains the most of the preacher pays the preacher the least, the man who complains tiie most of his neigh bor is the meanest neighbor, and tue man who has the least sense is the most conceited. And it may also be added that the mau who borrows his neighbor's newspaper has the most fault to rind with the way it is run. Exchange. Kev. S. L. Morris, a former pastor of our Presbyterian church, and who is ruo. iiiukiug a tour of the East, has written the following letter to a friend : SUMMIT OF PYKAMIDS, J February 27, 1895. \ DKAC FRIEND: This is written from from the highest rock ou top of Cheops. We have visited Bermudas. Gibraltar, Malaga, Alhambra in Granada, Al giers, Alexandria and Cairo. I rode a camel from the largest Pyramid to the Sphinx and back. Algiers and Alex andria are as line in places as anything I ever saw in v.uierica. Cairo is ori ental and abounds in extremes. I saw old Pharaoh, Kameses li, in museum. Yours truly, ?. L. MORKIS.

R. ifc W. C. Kail way to inspect the water powers at and near Parks ville, this county. The party consist ed of the following : W. B. Young, D. B. Dyer, J. H. Alexander, Charles Estes, Albert Anderson, H. C. Middle ton, and others : "Mr. George E. Ladshaw, hydraulic engineer, Mr. J. T. Batton, a photo grapher, who will be taken along in their professional capacities, will make views and descriptions of each of the magnificent manufacturing sites, to be published in a pamphlet which the road will issue. Pine Log ?Shoals, the especial point of interest in this trip, is three miles from the line of rail road, and seventeen miles from Augus ta. lt f urnises unrivalled water, if a manufactory could be induced to lo cate there the road will run a spur over to it, furnishing ample transpor tation facilities. In the pamphlet to be gotten out by the P. R. & W. C. Ballway, a fu.'l description of the hundreds of sites similar to this one, will be pnbiished, and a strong effort made to bring to Che recognition of capitalists,their worth." Tribute of Respect. It is with much pain that we chron icle the death of our fellow student of St. Marks Sunday School, JNO. WIL LIE BLACK, who died at his post teach ing school at White Rock, S. C., Feb ruary 2nd, 1S95. He completed his earthly pilgrimage in the bloom and vigor ol' young man hood. His death was a painful sur prise to the members of his church (St. Marks) to which he belonged. He was a close attendant of our Sunday School, a member from childhood, and while at home a few months previous to his death, filled the place as teacher of the Iii ble class. We believe he had the good-will and friendship of the Sunday school scholars and teachers i nd that WILLIE was highly esteemed as a young man of truthfuluess, pleas antless, and of spotless character, al ways doing his duty. We feel the distress of his fond fath er, brothers and sisters: and to them the St. Marks Sunday School tenders its profound sympathy, and points them forward to a place where part ing is no more. In memory of him the St. Majks Sunday School passed the following resolutions : WHEREAS, it has pleased Almighty God to remove from our midet our es teemed friend and classmate, J. WIL LIE BLACK, and, WHEREAS, we, the members of the Bible class, feel deeply Uie loss of one whom we so highly esteemed, There fore, be it RESOLVED, 1st. That while we de plore the early death of our fellow student and associate, we bow in hum ble submission to the will of Him who doeth ali things well. 2nd. That in his death the Bible class has lost one of its best members. 3rd. That we tender our heart felt sympathies to the sorely bereaved family. 4th. That a copy of these resolutions be seut to the family of the deceased, also to the Lutheran Visitor and Edgefield ADVEL VISER for publica tion. 5th. That a blank page in our record hook be dedicated to his memory. J. H. RISER, M. G. BOWLES, H. A. SIIEALV, March 18, '95. Committee. UNION MEETINGS.

We secure patents mid to induce peopie to keep track of their bright i nm? ? ton; J:. C.. wU; u?* ari ?xtonsiyi circulation throughout the United States and is devoted to the inter ests of inventors. NOT SO HARD AS IT SEEMS. The idea of beiDg able to invent something strikes most people as being very difficult; this delusion the Company wishes to dispel. It is the simple things and small in ventions that make the greatest amount of money, and the complex ones are seldom profitable. Al most everybody, at some time or another, conceives an idea, which, if patented, would probably be worth to him a fortune. Unfortu nately such ideas are usually dis missed without thought. The sim ple inventions like the car window which could bo easily slid up and down without breaking the pas senger's back,the sauce pan, the collar button, the nut lock, the bottle stopper, the snow shovel, are. things that almost everyone sees some way of improving upon, and it is^hese kind of inventions that bring the greatest returns to the author. The prize we offer will be paid at the end of each month, whether the application has been acted upon by the Pats-nt Office or not. Every competitor must apply for a patent on his invention through us, and whether he secures the prize or not, the inventor will have a valuable present.
