The rains thai fell last Saturday
were pretty general in their scope and
did much good. The sweet potatoes
set out and the pease planted will make
a wonderful ahow a little later on.
You may know lots of mean things
about your neighbor, but why not set j

The rains of last Friday were abund- j
ant and glorious, j.'nd ina few hours
the thermometer fell from 34 to 64. The
rain was not predicted by the weather
bureau, but it was jost as highly ap
preciated as if it had been.
A. J. Norris, Esq., who has been a
quasi invalid for some months, was
caught in theoold rain on last Satur
day and the result is that he is al this
writing confined to his room. It is
boped, however, that this set back
may not be a serious one.

..not only on his father's place, but on
all the neighboring places.
Some one bas given che fol'owing as
a good way to get rid of the trouble
some .mosquitoes: "Throw a bit of
' alum, about the size of a Barbie, into
a small bowl of water, and wet the
bands and face and any parts lightly
with it. Not a mosquito will approach
you. They hum about a little and dis
appear."

ten dollar affair, but one that you can
swap SOT a horse if you want to and
get boot. The only condition attached
to the award<ng of this prize, but this
?audition is imperative and from it
there will be not s single shadow of
turning, is that, the contestants must

Speaking of the Crawford murder
case tried in Camden, the Columbia
State said of Solicitor Thurmond's
speech:
"Solicitor Thurmond followed in an
earnest debate of over an hour and a
half. Had the State not had eye wit
nesses to prove that Crawford fired
the shot, he would have produced the
ball. He ridiculed the testimony of
the defense, showing that even Cole
mac testified that Crawford had bis;
pistol drawn when Stuart fired, while
Crawfosd denied it. He spoke of the
enormity of this crime, a woman killed
in her own home. The eyes of the
world are upon the jury. He felt
sure that it would do its duty. He
made a splendid appeal for justice,
and ridiculed the flimsy theories of
the defense as to the claim- that Craw
ford's pistol could not have set Are to
the clothing. He replied that at a
quarter of the distance Stuart's pistol
burned Crawford's, as shown by the
latter."
And tbe News and Courier said :
"Mr.Thurmond's argument was one
of distinguished force and clearness,
and was perhaps the most connected
and forcible of all the arguments, be
cause it summoned up the whole of the
memorable case and caught the vul
nerable points of the other arguments.''
No Smallpox at "Leesville.
Expert Reardon who was sent to
Leesville to investigate as to the
caBes of smallpox said to exist at
that place has made his report as
follows :
"There is now no smallpox io
Leesville. I examined three whites
and found the eruption to be ecze
ma. See no resemblance of any
of the characteristic stages of
smallpox, as the eruption ie iden
tically the eame as when first ap
peared. From the general appear
ance and history of the cases there
is not the slightest indications of
smallpox.
"I next examined four colored
persons and find that all of them
have had a genuine case of small
pox, but have convalesced, and
there is now no immediate dan
ger. All these cases are directly
traceable as coming from Bates
burg, through a negro named King.
As a preventative would advise all
to be vaccinated and .disinfect
houses and contents where these
cases have been, so as to prevent
further spread of the disease."

DEAR EDITC
prised when I
plodding aroui
day, and it is the first ruai
that we have had since the early
part of April, and the prospects
are that we will bave a good sea
son, as it is still raining. Further
more don't be surprised at the
headline. From the date of the
first article that came ont in the
ADVERTISER headed Plum Branch
there has been some uneasiness
around the capital of Dark Corner.
It is said that some nf the inhab
itants of Parksville were somewhat
incensed from rbe fact that we did
not give them a little send off, and
it might be that as soon as we got
on a genuine boom that we would
petition our legislature to have the
seat of government moved to our
our city. I will. note, however,
that we have not BO much aa
dreamed of such.
I will try to give you a short
sketch of the history of this terri
tory lying between Stevens Creek
and the Savannah river: In ?the
early settlement of the country
there was a man, not as honest as
he bhould have been, who did
something over in the State of
Choty and the officers of that
realm got after bim and he skipped
across Stevens Creek and thought
himself safe in the State of Geor
gia ; and eyer since or for many
years this territory waa known as
Skippers Georgia, and the seat or
centre of government was at Col.
Tompkins' store, perhaps until
about lc-36 when the great Mogul
or Alcalde called the grand conn*
eil together and the name of the
territory was changed to Dark
Corner, Now since the railroad
bas split the once noted old Dark
Corner in half, we of the upper
and northern portion of the pro
vince have proclaimed our inde
pendence, and .hold that we are a
portion of old Edge field and bold
our allegiance thereto.
Dear Editor, if you will allow it,
I will make a few suggestions to
the farmers, I dou't know if I am
competent, but will have my. say.
The wheat and oat crop has been
harvested and the land on which
they grew is lying idle; by all
means plant all the corn and.pea?
you can, one row of corn alternat
ing with one of peas, if you have
not the peas strain a point and
get them. Thi& ?B one year that
almost every farmer that I have
talked with thinks this year1 late
corn will do well. Some say sow
peas* wy experience is, and I tried
it three years, as to sowing for
either forage or for fortifying the

Story of a Slave.
To be bound hand and foot for
years by the chains of disease is
the worst form of slavery. George
D. Williams, of Manchester, Mich,
tells how such a slave was made
free. He says : "My wife has been
so helpless for five years that she
could not turn over in bed alone.
After using two bottles of - Electric
Bitters, she is wonderfully improv
ed and able to do her own work."
This Buperme remedy for female
diseases quickly cures nervousness,
^melancholy, headache, backache,

people. Every bottle guaranteed.

Some Personal Recollections of;
Incidents and Men of Long
Ago-By an Old Stager.
"Time and tide wail for no man." i
Men come and go. Times change !
New environments, new scenes face
us! New hopes and new aspira
tion? move and control QB with ad- i
vancmg years, bnt amidst all, the j
mind loves to revert to the days
and memories of childhood and
young manhood and to live them
over again in calm reflection. And
we dare say, with the knowledge
which time and experience"' have
brought us, that improvement and
correction would mark many a
past act of life, if permitted to live
our lives over again. Alas ! such
cannot be save in memory.
It was hard by the northern
Lanks of old Sleepy Creak that the
light of life burst upon us. By
way of parenthesis, permit pde to
say that we have never known
whance it derived its name, for it;
at tithes is quite a brawling stream.
In the long ago, it is remembered
that there was a place in said
stream called "Cat Hole!" noted
for its depth of water and for its
awe to children because of the fact
that two negroes had found watery
graves in its bosom. Urchins
when bathing needed no warning
to steer clear of its deep water.
The fame of "Cat Hole" was known
of all the boys around. Among
my earliest recollections, was my
?tether's removal from Sleepy to
turkey Creek. An honest, indus
trious, thrifty population made up
the citizenship of Sleepy Creek.
We remember old Mr. Peter Ouzts
and his aged wife and can picture
in our mind, though not vividly,
how the venerable couple looked
in the long ago as my father's
family passed through their yard
on their way to Little Stevena
Creek church at the monthly meet
ings. Mr. Ouzts was the grand
father of our present sheriff. Ho

ters whothave hot only added much
to the population of Edgefieidand
other counties of this State, but
have added to that of other sister
Southern States.
Mr. Peter Ouzts had a brother, if
we mistake not, who lived near by
whose given name was Michael.
He left but one son, who was call
ed "little Jacob," and who was as
honest and unsuspecting as men
get to be. But there were other
citizens of the old regime who de
serve mention in that section.
Among them were the three broth
ers George, Peter and Williom
Dorn, who worshipped at McKen
dree Chapel, and were sterling good !
men, many of whose descendants
make up a respectable portion of
our population. The same mxy be
said of the Timmer man family who
have contributed to the numbers
and respectability of this and otb- ;
er states, all of whom descended
from two families.

is Creek church and recall
mes of the saints who wor
shipped there, and who added
grace and diguity to the church.
All of whom ase now numbered
with the sainted dead : S. W. Nich

olson, David B. Strother, Bartly
Blocker, Col. John Quattlebaum,
George Ouzts, David and Jobx
Harting, Jimmy Green, --:BoV
ton, JameB Dorn, Conrad Lowir^y,
Wright Adams, Joseph Adams,
who was for years the clerk of the
church, Hiram Adams, J. W. and
Ransom Timmerman and other
worthy members tfhose nameB we
do not now recall with their noble
Christian wives who were shining
lights in the church of God, and
who shed the radiance of their.
Christian lives upon those around
them, There were but few changes
in the pastorate in those days
within our recollection. Rev. John
frapp was for long years pastor,
whose native talent and eloquence
often moved his audience as they
are seldom moved now. Then came
for a short time Rev. Zedekiah
Watkin !. an earnest godly man,
who had the peculiarity of putting
one of nis hands to his ear and
holding it there in the warmth -of
his discourses. Though uneducated
in the ordinary acceptation ot^the
term, these godly men were a pow
er for good in their day and gen
eration. And harp,' by way of di
gression, we will day that we are
not of that number who believe In
ruling out of the ministry all those
who have not been trained in a
theological school or seminary as
recently intimated in a baccalau
reate sermon of a distinguished.dit
vine. Ther. are other essentiali
ties necessary to the successful
Gospel preacher besides theologi
cal lore and general literary' cul
ture. Beauty of diotion and pro
fundity of exposition, coming
from an unsanctified heart do not
move audiences to repentance.
THREE SCO#E.
TOO TRUE.
Drink, and the Ifang drinks with you;
Swear off and you go it alone;
For the barroom bum who drinks
your rum
Has a quenchless thirst of his'own.
Feast, and your friends are many ;
Fast, and they cut you dead;
They'll not get mad if you treat them
bad,
So long as their stomach is fed.
Steal, if you get a million,
For then you can furnish bail;
Tba great big thief gets out on leave,
While the little one goes to jail.

The Orr Cotton Mill.
^. A meeting of the stockholders of
the Orr Cotton Mill was held in
the Court House at noon last Wed
nesday. Mr. R. S. Ligon was call
ed to the chair and Mr. B. Frank
Mauldin requested to act a<? Sec
retary. The meeting at once pro
ceeded to business, and elected the
following Board of Directors : Jas.
L. Orr, B. 8. Lig?n, F. G. Brown,
B. F. Mauldin, E. P. Smith, R. S.
Hill, N. B. Sullivan, G. E. Prince
and S. M. Orr. The Board then
elected Col. J. L. Orr President.
It was decided to call at once for
20 per cent, of the capital stock,
so that a charter could be secured.
This amount is now being paid in,
the limit being to-morrow, 15th
inst. It is proposed to organize
with s capital of $400,000. Col.
Orr made a short talk to the stock
holders, in which he outlined the
plans of the Company, and stated
that he had purchased the mill
machinery, which was now ad
vancing every day iu price. He
had selected the latest itoproved
machinery, the looms beiug the
Draper model, which could be op
erated much cheaper than any oth
er loom manufactured.
On Monday Col. Orr returned to
Anderson, accompanied by Mr.
Stephen Grenu, . of . Lockwood,
Green & Co., expert mill eugiueers
and/ architects' of Boston, Mass.
That;Afternoon, in company with
the . Directors, these gentlemen
visited the various sites that had
been offered for the location of
the mill, and Mr. Greeu closely
inspected ?H bf them,'-abd finally
decided that ' the ; be?t >and most
convenient site was the old Wads
worth placed now owned by Dr. S.
M. Orr, and" situated,?jjt?t>^^de

than one year's time the mill will
be ready to manufacture goods.
New subscriptions to the capi
tal stock are coming in almost ev
ery day, and more thun one-half
of it has been subscribed in South
Carolina. It is more than proba
ble that the mill will soon have a
capital of $600,000, aud the build
ings will be erected so that they
can be added to.-Anderson Intel
