So far $246.14 in excess of the tax abstract has been collected and there is a good prospect of $329.34 more being collected, which will make the excess over the amount on abstract $575.48.

The State FairIt has been the general opinion that the State Fair this year would excel any of previoas years, and from what we can learn it has far exceeded the most sangaine expectations.? There has been ^onderful improvement in the buildings, grounds, &c., and every available space has been occnpied by the exhibits from all parts of the State. The attendance at the opening indicates a very large crowd, which is beiDg swollen by every train going into the city. The amusements daring the week are folly ample and worth seeing. Every night they will be varied to suit the occasion. This afternoon the Japanese day fireworks will be exhibited at the grounds?something new?and at night the promenade concert in Agricultural Hall, fireworks at the State House. &c. To-morrow night grand torchlight parade and illumination, invisible turnout, etc., and Friday night to conclude with the grandest display of fireworks ever seen in the South. The merchants have full stocks of goods, which ore offered at very low figures. An index #8 to the places to secure these bargains will be seen represented in our advertising polamne. ^ V MiMpHMMMMlitaM Inventors.

Departed this life, on the 17th day of October, 188;?, Mrs. Elizabeth Hexdbix in the eighty-seventh year of her age. For about ten years preceding her death, she was an invalid, and required almost constant attention. About five days before she died, she had a stroke of paralysis, and although she retained her reason, she could nnf artAAk intfillinahlv. Dnrinc this Whole long time of suffering she was an inmate ! of the houso of her son, Mr. J. S. Hendrix. Kind hands and loving hearts * ere always ready to minister to the wants of "dear grandma" and these went Jar to assuage her sufferings?but she is now freed from pain and rests, we fondly believe, with her maker and God--those who so kindly performed these services have the conciousness of duty weli done, and another incentive to persevere in the service of the Master, so that they may join her when they too shall be called home. It was the pleasure of the writer of this brief notice to have had conversations with her during her long confinement, and she always ex- 1 pressed not only a readiness but great anxiety to be freed from the pains of this life. She felt as she expressed if, that it | I would be well for her iu death, for she I S knew that Jesus would receive her and } | crowu her as one of his. In early life She j 1 became a member of tbe Methodist Church, j and till life's close clung to it aud adorned ! j the profession which she had made. She now quietly sleeps in St. John's Lutheran j Church yard by the side of kindred. Her I i faneral services were rendered by Rev. Mr. ; Gatlin of the Methodist Church and Rev. Mr. Kreps of the Lutheran Church, the former preaching a very impressive and appropriate sermon. May we also like her, be ready when the summons comes. ? * L?XJNC^!qn ^ .tx^atspc.

How doubly absurd and ridiculous it is for jealous rivals TO ATTEMPT TO COMPETE WITH OUR PRICES. No better ^ illustration of our facilities can be cited than thi above named river and its tributaries as it dances down our hillsides in foaming majesty and wends its way to the broad Atlantic. Chester and Winusboro are our tributaries which daily pour in an amount of bullion combined, with what is. derived from our "TRADE PALACE" here, swolcn by the IMMENSE PATRONAGE OF LEXINGTON to form a current which, captures in its course, as the sunshine does the dust, the BAB.GAIHS A1TL SPECIALTIES Daily to be seen upon onr crowded counters. Every train is freighted with immense shipments to our house, and as the surging tide daily washes our seashore, so does the throng of eager purchasers crowd around our counters to partake of bargains which are so demoralizing as to compel the most economical to purchase.
