"Cauld blew, the .bitt???biti?? north", but "for a' that, and a' that" there was a goodly uuusb? r of guests assembled at thef borne' of Mrs. J. H. Tillman, who had repaired thither ?in reepouse to invitations from ?the* members ol. the Edgefield Litt rary Club, the occasion being a.r?c?ptiou tender ed to their gentlemen friends by the members of the club. For some time tbesV ladies pf literary lore and ren:wn have boen studying -Scotch history , and* literature. Therefore, it was but natural, when the ladies conceived the idea^ of complimenting .the gentlemen with a reception, .that they should make it Scotlandeeque i. e.rthe d?corations, color scheme, music and programme should be suggestive of Scotland. The tpaciuus hall, "parlor and library of this elegant home were so tastefully aud beautifully adorned with Scottish dr?pery, national colors, rosee and thistles f.tbe latter being the national flower) as to cause one to imagine himself transported to some Scottish castle, like Lochleven or Stirling. Especially beautiful were the decorations in the parlor, and . library. Over and across the large windows wreaths of .08<*e, thistles and Highland pine were gracefully hung, and^ the national colors were draped f'om the ceiling to the chande liers .which were also decorated, while paintings aud drawings of scenes in Scotland adorned the walls and mantels. Many of the ladies wore collars end sashes of Scutch plaids and adorned their hair with large bows of the same, material. The entiie_club were hostesses ou this occasiou but the reception being-at the home of Mrs. Tillman she was hostess in chief, eo to speaa, aud the occasion served to snow how strikingly gifted she is in the art pf entertaining. A com mittee arranged the following pro gramaos which, cou tri bu ted much to th? pleasure bf the evening: First, au inptrumcutal selection, "Blue Bells of Scotland", by Mrs. W. S. Cogburn ; song, "Bonnie SweetBessif, Maid of Dundee", hy" Mrs. M;. it. Edd > m an ; remarks upon Scotland by Rev. T. P. Bur-. gee*] . ihstrummtal p? lection, "Auld Laug Syne," by Mrs. J. Ii. Tillman ; song, ".Annie Laurie,1' by Miss Eliza Mime, and a soug bv Mrs.. M. R. Eddi* man entitled "We'd Better Bide a Wee." Each ; uf th& foregoing numbers was very skillfully and beautifully reuder- i ed. Especially enjoyable were the remarks by Rev. T. P. Burgess, wh j spoke in.his usual happy vein, i Short Scotch quotations had been written upon slips of paper aird torn iu halves, each half being ?umbered and placed in seperate boxes. The ladies drew slips from ODO box.and the gentlemau from the other, .and those who drew 3?Treepouding numbers, thereby sbmpletihg a quotation, .were s??t ?d together at supper and in-sol ving tibe''literary puzzle. The lat ter consisted in supplying fifteen titles of books in verses from ??hich tiley had been omitted, completing the rhyme. A prize tva?-awarded to the person who 2jave all of the titles correctly, Mrs. T:: P. Burgess being tbe 1 fortunate winner. Just before adieus were said Rev./\ E. Burts presented the prize in a most1 pleasing manner, proviug himself to. be a prince among impromptu speakers. Chi? fest among the mauy de lightful feature's of the evening was the elaborate supper which was seived-by four beautiful, bon nie lasses, Misses Lucretia lsruu 3on, Julia Haltiwauger, Katie Ballowe and Grace Tpmpkins. The , guests were seated by fours at 3*mall tables around which there was a "feast of reason and flow of soul" -while the inner mau was regaled upon the followiug de lightful menu : Turkey^ Dressiug, Cranberry Sauce, Chicken Salad, Irish Potato Salad, Cheese Straws, Pickle, Beaten Biscuits, Crackers, Fruit Jelly, Whipped Cream, Cake, Coffee. The ' color scheme was also beautifully and daintily carried out in the cakes, icings and jelly, all being as varicolored as the Scotch plaids. . This informal reception, which was all the more pleasant because of its informality and absence of couventionahty_,._.waB par excel lence the gayest, merriest, and most enioyable that has ever been held iu thiB borough. Not only the lads, lasseB, ant diguified la dies but the sedate men aud hen pecked husbands (with the hens present) were in the "very flower of youth." The reception also served to disprove the fallacy that all ministers are austere and long-faced. Decidedly the gayest aud youngest men present were Revs. T. P. Burgess, Marvin Auld and C. E. Burts. Eut little persua sion would have been tecessary, seemingly, to have caused th'im to engage in the Highland fling a Scotch dance performed by ono person-h?d sucha number been upon-the programme. iv . While tho meu were praising and thaukiug their fair hostesses for the evening's pleasure they eagerly listened for a report of the committee on "time and place" of the next reception, which, let us hope, will be announced at an early day. * ''Wi'monie a vow. and lock'd em brace, Ourpartingr was fu' tender; And pledging aft to meet again, We tore oursels asunder.".

He has beeu a very.active and useful member of the senate duriug the recent ses sion of the legislature.

Among, the names of the graud jurors, which are published in tbiB issue, will be found the ? ames of five foremen of former grand juries. A most excellent petit jury has also been drawn for the March term of court which convenes on the first Monday. Try our teaB and coffees and you will use no other.

Mr. Walter Samuel has opened ti first-class blacksmith and re pair shop at the old Gray stables, and invites his friends to call upon him when they need any work done. Mr. Samuel has se cured the services of a number one blacksmith and will make a specialty of this class of work. Have your horse shod once by him and you will afterwards allow no other smith to drive a uail for you. If Edgefield can not be a city, wonder.how long before she can affect city airs aud city ways? It must be a very great luxury to live in one of these make-believe cities. There is Greenwood whose citizens have express packages de livered free at their doors-and probably their mail, too-while we of Edgefieldj'must plod through the mud to'tbe office and shoulder our express packages, whether they be a box of Huylers Gandy or a case of fish. Senator Tillman has returue:! to his home at Trenton from Philadelphia, whither he went a .week ago to consult specialists. He was assured in Philadelphia that be was not a victim of any deep-seated, organic trouble, but was suffering from grip poison which had produci d neuritis-iu flamatiou of a nerve. All that is necessary to restore him to hie usual health, said the eminent specialists, is rest and the exor cise of prudence. The senator will not return to Washington duriug the present session of congress. Mr. J, H. Allen, who has served the Bank of Edgefield BO ably aud faithfully as assistant cashier for tho past eight years, received last week a very flattering offer from the direotorfl of the newly organi zed bank (Th People's Bank) at Batesburg. The fouuders of this new bank were exceedingly anx ious to secure a capable, experi enced man, hence they offered strong inducements to Mr. Allen, who after careful consideration decided to continue with the Bank of Edgefield, and hie friends are greatly rejoiced over his decision. H?$ M? SUBS???UfS The a nuottn cornent that Rev. M. M. Brabham will preach the annual sermon before the Wo man's Miesion Society of the Methodist church on the third Sunday in March will cause much rejoicing. He "is greatly beloved by scores in Edgefield who are not affiliated with the Methodist church. . Their keen wits and wonderful gift of speech usually make wo men victorious in repartee. At least so thought the young man the,Uber day when he remarked to a bright young woman, "We do not read in the Scripture that seven devils were cast out nf any man," being met with thc reply: "No they have got them yet." We are .offering Bleaching, Em broidery, Lac? and P. K. at very low prices. The ladies cannot afford to miss lin's opportunity. J. W. PEAK. Court of General Sessions will Qouveue on March the 6t.b.

Despite the fact th.at the fruit jrop has already beeu greatly in ured in parts of Georgia, it is yet ?afe 'in this section. On Saturday ast while they were in attendance ipon the farmers association, the .vriter heard Mr. P. N. Lott, of F-ohuston, and Mr. W. S. Middle on, of Clark's Hill, both of whom ire large and successful growers ; of fruit, say that fruit is safe thus far. The judgment of these gentle- ] nen can be relied upon. \ . A delightful lunch party was aeld at the Limestone echool louse on Friday evening last. The mm of $30 was realized from the ?ale of lunches, which will be jsed to paint the building. Besides oeing a financial success it was ilso a great occasion socially. Hou. W. A. Strom, who is yet as poung and a? full of merry-making is a school boy, led the danes. Miss Lillian Smith, the popular ind beloved teacher, is doing splendid work for the Limestone school. Consumption ^ There is no specific for consumption. Fresh air, ex ercise, nourishing food and Scott's Emulsion will come preity near curing it, if there is anything to build on. Mil lions of people throughout the world are living and in good health on one lung. ^ From time immemorial the \ doctors prescribed cod liver oil for consumption. Of course the patient could not take it in its old form, hence it did very little good. They can take SCOTT'S EMULSION and tolerate it for a long time. There is no oil, not excepting butter, so easily digested and absorbed by the system as cod liver oil in the form of Scott's Emulsion, and that is the reason it is so helpful in consumption where its use must be continuous. 9 We will send you a sample free. ; Cf Be sure that this picture in the form of a label is on the wrap per of every bottle of Emulsion you buy.

It is hoped that the attendance will be iarge as the cause is a laudable one, and one in which all should try to aid. Tickets of ad mission can be procured at the drug store of W. E.

The Presby terians have made many improve ments in their church, and the ladies of the congregation are struggling to meet the payments as they fall due. Further partic ulars will be giveu next week.
