Florence a few clays since and unani ! mouslv resolved to st-H no cotton ' b*.the Standard Oil Company i "if any other mill in the combination, j provided the home mills will buy and j pay a reasonable price for the seed, j It was also decided to make YVednes- j day in each week Alliance dav for ! selling cotton, and urged upon all i ^Banners to bring their cotton in only : on tliat day. By this plan a large amount of cotton will be placed on j i I . thp market at one time, thereby in- i viting buyers to come from abroad ! V Sncfcput prices up to the highest pos- j sibkj-figures. It will be seen by the j abo^ action that the Cotton Seed Trugt can expect no favor here, and tile fanners will do all in their power ; '& ^J^^tributing to the success of the i * The Greenville County Farmers' Alliance held its quarterly meeting at Greenville on October 4th, and appointed a committee of one to consider the matter of selling cotton in . ' bulk and of employing an Alliance . seller; Nearly every Sub-Alliance in . the county has ratified the State Exchange and subscribed to the capital stock. The order in that county now number 2,000 members with fifty Sub-Alliances, an increase of 500 ! members in three months. It is re- j ported on excellent authority that the National Cotton Committee has instructed every Alliance in the South to hold cotton for the next two weeks. The instructions of this committee are secret, but several Alliance members have given the information on which the report is^based. The Sumter County Alliance seems to have boycotted Charleston, judging from the following resolutions passe%i on the 4th inst: Resolved, That we earnestly call upon our brethren in this and all other sections of the State to join us lira united and persistent eflbrt to keep all Alliance cotton from the city of Charleston for manv years to 4 come, because Charleston has given I more aid and comfort to the jute monopolists in their light against the farmers than any other city in the South.

The Gala Week in Charleston will open on the 4th, and continue till the 9th of November. The program is most interesting and extensive, and this will be an excellent opportunity for our people to Inake a delightful visit to the old city at reduced rates of fare. Mb. David Epstix, a prominent Isrealite of Columbia, who for the past year has resided in Knoxville, died suddenly in the latter city, Saturday night of heart disease. His remains were brought to Columbia for burial. The Alliance Farmers' of York county have decided to hold cotton for better prices. One farmer who had carried six bales there for sale hauled it back home as he could not get as much as he wanted for it. As soon as the obstructions at the South Carolina Railway bridge over Congaree river, near Kingsville, are removed, the Government appropriation of $7,500. will be used in opening the channel of the river above the bridge. Washington, North Dakota and South Dakota have gone Republican, and Montana has gone Democratic, j This increases the Republican niaiority in both the Senate and the An.Illincis man has been sent to ths penitentiary for assessing his property below its market prices. If such penalty was impossed in this State but few would be left outside j to pay taxes. ?

We went expecting Hi be well en tertained, and in; ?>ur expectations were fully met, we wish to express ?>ur appreciation of the very interesting and successful entertainment given by the school which certainly should be a source of gratification to the teacher and of pride to tlie patrons and will'doubtless give a fresh impetus to the school. The day was one of boauh/ul sun shine and everything seemed favorable to make the occasion one of pleasure. The regular program whs taken up ami earned out- wit a the exception of the two addresses which were to have been given. After the opening song, which sounded a hearty welcome lu all, prayer was offered by Mr. Henry Counts; of Newberry. The speeches by the little folks *were enjoyed very much as they were not only suitable for pupils of their age and advancement, but also very appropriate for such an occasion. . * ; Next reorder was extracts by the young ladies, which showed that they have had' access to approved and carefully selected books. This feature of the school and school exhibitions is designed for and greatly aids in cultivating a taste for pure literature, and forms the habit of reading something useful every day, the good effects of which in subseqent life can hardly be overestimated. Thep followed speeches by the young men, which were not only creditable to them, but, as they spoke and acted with the utmost precision, showed no small amount of care and attention on the part of their- instructor. The horn- for recess having arrived ; all were invited to participate in a I bountiful dinner which had been prepared by the people of the community who are noted for their hos- I pitaiity. On re-assembling to their seats in front of the stage the audience was pleased to listen to the essays by the young- ladies, which were charac ' " t ?' o terized by affluence of thought and brilliancy of style worthy of high praise. These distinguishing qualities of their expositions are doubt less partly the outgrowth ot their j literary society which has for its ob- j ject the cultivation of its members' ! literary taste and the increase of their j knowledge of the literature of our I mother tongue; and partly that of j earnest research of volumes containing collateral information to throw i additional light on the subjects in- j viting their attention. We can hardly j overstate the importance of young j persons of thus digesting * their ' knowledge and making the necessary | efforts iii preparing them tp appear j with confidence on such occasion be- j fore a large audience and critising | pareuts. The subject for ilebaffc was .then I announced ?' Resolved: ^ffhat the ! Worlcl^hves jIVjre to tlf- Author! was openeTTy*^1*' exsTitger, | for the affirmative. There was a i warpi discussion, and the alignments 1 set forth by each side were strong j and to the* point, proving that the j speakers had availed themselves of j every facility afforded them for ae- ! quiring information on the question | at issue. We were much pleaed with j the manner in which the subject was I handled and respectfully call the at- i tent-ion of the public to the advant- j ages which this school affords for a j healthful aud invigorating epmpeti- | tion in elocution, associated with a gen- j erous rivalry in debate-, which are powerful agents in matters of education, and it needs no discussion to prove that these benefits will serve the pui-pose of fitting young men to us? all the influence they possess in j shaping public sentiment. Congrat- I ulating the debators on their progress in this department, which has ell merited the praise they have won, we hope that their past success will encourage and stimulate them to still greater exertion and be a great incentive to high attainments obtained through an honest aspiration to rise to enunenoe. ] At the conclusion of the debate the writer of this article in behalf of the school expressed the regret that Dr. Holland and Prof. Busby could not fill their places in the program, but congratulated those present on having secured a speaker to engage i their attention during the time which j had been assigned to the gentlemen named; and he then introduced Capt. j W. A. Barrier, of Charlotte, X. C. Capt: Barrier is a prominent educator of his city and has had long experience in the profession. He is now engaged in a good and noble enterprise, viz.: the higher education of women, and is making an honest effort along this line to focalize the interest that the Lutheran Church of the South has at stake in the respect of educating her daughters, by build&af she may vie with her sister"7ie7I?minations in institutions of learning. As an inducement for the school to be located at Charlotte that city offers an appropriation of ?510,000 towards its establishment there. His o/Mroua was eminently a nractieal one, (tlXfcUJkVWM ? " ' v A delivered in a forcible manner, was well received and verified what we had presupposed him to be, a man thoroughly qualified to speak on the j subject of female education, and for I the work he had undertaken. After saving that the exercises of the day ! would have done credit to a higher i institution of learning and other I words of commendation on the school, he addressed the audience on the subi ject of education in general, and | female education in-particular, closing J up by briefly outlining his plan of ! work for accomplishing the end in i view and soliciting the earnest co op ! eration of the Church and all those j in sympathy with the cause. The above is but a synopsis of his ad! dress. We wish him much success.

The : principal ship of this well ordered j school is in the control of Prof. AY. A. ; Counts of Newberry. He is a gradj uate of Newberry College, and a ; most efficient and competent teacher, a Christian gentleman and will be welcomed back at the opening of the next session on November 4. After two years' work at Spih% Hill in the capacity of a teacher, and! after such an exhibition, wo may feel assured that lie does not wish to evade the i scrutiny of' an intelligent people and that he is not afraid to make a public presentation of -his school in holiday attire in order that a more correct idea of its merits may be formed, j ! AA'e believe that lie has laid founda- ; | lion for enlarged usefulness and that i i he has been fully awake to the solemn question which comes fraught with mighty import to ewry teacher i. e.: "How can I best help to guide if 1 11 i ii j (i ii i?ii ana aeveiop me intellect 01 tne cnna | before me," knowing that the seeds i which are to bring forth the harvest | of life are sown during this formative j peiiod, and that upon us, the teachers of South Carolina, much of the responsibility is laid.

Jt in our high j privilege and our duty as teacher, by j precept and example, to train these ! young people to be worthy of their j heritage. So may he, with every j other teacher, he the happy instrument of leading- the vouth under his - * ' care to the nest of all knowledge, j iCwhichdias with it il& gift of heal- ] ing" which avails more than the whole j encyclopedia of scientific knowledge. J. D. N. Greenwood, S. C., Oct, 5. 1889. For the Lexington Dispatch. Alliance Matters. Mr. Euitor: Allow me to use a lit tie'of your space in the interest of our Alliance. I am proud to inform all your readers that the Alliance is progressing finely. We have now aixrut twenty Sub-Alliances in our county and our worthy Organizer, Brother j Sease, who in the absence of ourreg- I ular appointee, Brother Kaiser, has?a | number of fpv r.rfmul . i any of your react ers w-isn to have an ; Alliance organized iu their neighbor j hood, let them please communicate with Brother Sea.se and he will be pleased to attend the calls as soon as convenient. On last Friday the third regular quarterly meeting of the County Alliance was held at the court house and quite a large number ol' delegates were present, some sixty or seventy. The spirit with which the j meeting was attended also went to prove the earnest with which the farmers are treating the Alliance and without lgucji doubt pn my- mind, I can promise great results in the near future. Already the farmers' move- j ment is commanding respect from other sources, something quite unu sual, and ere long the Alliance will have taught some of their old extortioners, that they no longer depend upon or fear them. There is no need ' of any square and honest merchant to fear any bad results from this farmers' movement, for as it is intended to raise the condition of fanners, those who depend upon them for an honest living will surely be benefited bv it also. But beware, you miserable extortioners pf any and all de-; grees, from- the merciless cotton broker to the manager of some gigantic trust, when the Alliance has .got done,with you, there will not be much grit in you any more. Let all our Alliances at the very earliest endorse the General State j Exchange piaxj, and I mean bj' that, let them at once come out wug tnejr pro rata shares, so that there will not be any more time lost than necessary v to establish this State Exchange. For only through it will we reap the greatest benefits out of the Alliance. Let all good men who have the interi est of the families at heart^me and | lend us their help am^jifluence to I crush uo not wait any lon^e^^ve are fighting our common /flfljressors and intend to fight them on the very plan with tfmich they j have been oppressing us for so long ! a time. One thing is qure that we I will succeed; but the stronger we are at once the sooner the victory will be ours, and would the South have conquered the North in their struggle for independence the victory would not have been near so great as when the Alliance will walk out more than conqueror over their uiiprinciEled enemies.

MeDaniel, Atlanta, Ga., writes: "I was much emaciated and had rheumatism so bad I could not get along without crutches. I also had neuralgia in the head. Firstclass physicians did me no good. Then I tried B. B. R., and its effects were magical. I cheerfully recommend it as a good tonic and quick cure." Mrs. Matilda Nichols, Knoxville, Tenn., writes: "I had catarrh six years and a most distressing cough, and my eyes were much *.swollen. Five bottles of B. B B. thank God! cured me." John M. Davis, Tylea, Texas, writes: "I was subject a number of years to spells of inflammatory rheumatism. which six. bottles of B. B. P.. thank heaven, has entirely cured.
