On the Fourth page of this issue will be found the platform of the proposed Third Party. It reads well and we cannot see serious ob jecfcions to it, except to the Third _ Party movement. We must have reform in many ways, but we cannot see why it cannot be accomplished inside of the Democratic party. In this State we think our only salvation lies in the Democratic party. "We are now upon one of the greatest political revolutions that this country has ever witnessed and our people should think well before they jump at any suggestion to leave the Democratic party. Our advice is "go slow/" The question of the forming of the new county of Calhoun out of Sandy Run, Bull Swamp and a part of Congeree is now being agitated by the citizens of the proposed territory. Friend Rast, in an article on our 1st page, has thrown out the proper idea and best course i^> pursue in th^ matter, that is, to hold meetings in the territory at suitable places and there discuss the propriety of such ? a scheme. "We will regret to lose any part of our county at any time, as it certainly will burden us with increased taxation: ye^? e believe that in time, the area of Lexington will be curtailed by the formation of other counties. The necessity for smaller counties is growing in public favor, it is a matter upon which our neonle should be well informed be #k; * fore the make a move for any change. k ? A Letter from Festns. The refreshing showers of late liave made farmers cheerful. Crops :-nd gardens, like their owners, look glad. On the 23rd instant, death took from our community, Mr. Joseph J. Goodwin in the 77th year of his age.

Mr. Goodwin's record as a eitizDn, husband, father; and as a Christian is without blot or blemish. %A native of the State, his footsteps had never, but once, carried him beyond its borders, or far from the cheerished scenes of his childhood. He had long been a consistent member of tffe Baptist church and was a prominent member of Oakey Springs Alliance. He leaves, three sons and two daughters with many grand and great grand children to mourn hh I I I alia Ul IUUJI? i')W?w?n mi ? . . y\>or>Tr mvriino JUULOiU.* T 11 v Last Sabbath. fba. t> ^ * Erst preached the funeral sermon of Mr. Barfoot's child and then preached Mr. Goodwin's at Oakey Springs, before the largest funeral assembly ever met there. Mr. r Burton's effort was a most feeling tribute to the dead, preached from from a very appropriate text: "Death is swallowed up in victory." The Alliancemen were his pall-bearers and at the grave his splendid coffin was consigned to the earth with the solemn burial ceremonies of his brethren. Thus has passed away another old-time gentleman, at the close of a long life of industry and high moral worth, a man over whose grave no one could recall an unkind, dishonest act, or number an enemy oi the good old man His memory "w ill live pfter him. "Th-^re i3 no death ! An angel form _ "Wulka o'er the earth with silent tread: He bears our best loved ones away: And tften we call them dead." O'Brien's school at Oakey Springs Academy has just closed its session during which its register shows a steady increase in attendance from less than twenty to nearly forty pupils. He has the pleasure of holding from a majority of the trustees and all of his patrons a testimonial of his faithful management of the school during which they certify that: ? *'2Ie has given entire satisfaction to "hi.4 natrons and fullv sustained "his high reputation as a teacher.*' k We hear of some complaint about the rather rigid examination presented to our teachers, but, if the questions were long and difficult, our County Board of Examiners is P^ not to blame for they didn't prepare ^ the queries. I doubt whether many | \ counties have school boards equal in point of experience and scholarly attainments to Messrs. Wingard, Stokes and Brodie. ^' The Dispatch with Talmage's IP sormjons, its Educational column so ably conducted by Prof. Brodie, its "V Alliance department under those sterling, pithy farmer-writers, Capt. Lyles and Mr. P. I. Rawl, and its good Temperance column so faith fully managed by "E. S. W." should yc- find a place in evei-y household. There are some who don't take it because it is not quite so large as a \ blanket, and yet it is always big enough for them to borrow, fc Mr. Willie Smith, now a clerk in m the Postal Department at Washington, is home on leave ana reports James L. Johnson, D. F. Arthur and 1 n?mil?m mini i i i and former pupils of O' Brien's schools, as rapidly advancing by promotion. If no better plan can be devised I respectfully suggest that our County Commissioners rent a strip on each side of our public roads so that the ~ average plowman will leave a track N wide enough for wheelbarrows to pass in safety.

He is mat- * ing a very acceptable preacher to this circuit, and his recent marriage to the charming daughter of Mr. v Uriah Jefcosfc, Mis^ ^ephine, seems c ; to have enthused him with greater t nowers. ? r ~ _ I lately met Mr. Elvin A.

Prof. O'Brien's school at Oakey Springs Academy, we are told by 1 many patrons, has been a success to that teacher who has done so much for this section in an educational line.

At a regular meeting of Rigbtrell Alliance, No. 683, held May 16, 891, the following preamble and reslutions were unanimously adopted: Whereas certain newspapers in his State have unjustly pro* ** * 1 -l 1 oKea ana onenaea our nonorame brother, W.

Talbert, and whereas, t was done not only to offend our brother, but also to damage our good nd noble order, therefore, be it Resolved, 1st, That we hereby enlorse and approve the gallant and earless fight that our State Lecturer Las been and is now making in deense of the Alliance, and commend lim for the noble and manly stand ie has taken against these attacks. 2d, That we denounce and contemn those papers and editors for uch attacks upon our order.

Mr. Rucker, "The Royal Tiger," Ts not fighting the Alliance, so he writes in the opening paragraph of .is last enort; but in tne second ne says the Alliance is responsible for he low price of cotton and high price of corn. He evidently puts Faith in Alliance statistics, which I im glad to note. Well, now, in our ieclaration of principles, equal rights >nd equal privileges) to all, and special favors to none is ir-v^ md don't blame and us 80 tvhen ycu make the assertion, without proof, that the Alliance is responsible for ''hundreds of small merchants not having anything.'' If you ivould study the cause why the millionaires are growing richer and the poor are growing poorer, you could ind abundant proof, to put it mild, hat you are mistaken. Let me here suggest that there is a vast differ?nce between mere assertions and old, naked facts. Proof of the assertion that you are grinding by the 1 i *i i lozen weeK alter ween, in your undenting efforts to crush the lL'e out >f the Alliance, your last and only lope for retaining in the future the ittle spark of liberty you have left, s what we emphatically demand. It teems that you are laboring under he delusion that you are a friend to 'dear" clodhopper, but every letter rou publish is more and more conducing to every unbiased, thinking armer that other than pure philanhropic motives actuate you in your self-imposed, herculean task of wipng from the face of the earth (that ibominable order in your estimation) he Farmers1 Alliance. Are you so lear sighted that you cannot see that t is a pressing necessity for workngmen to buy what necessity com)els them to have at the lowest figire obtainable, and any fool knows hat they can only accomplish that >y co operation. Remember the adice given a few years ago by a man ibout your size, "Farmers, stick together,1' and since they have taken hat advice an stuck. Holy Moses and he prophets, what vials of wrath <ou do pour out on our devoted leads, because the small merchant :annot thrive by reason of the cirnlating medium being contracted to ,n alarming and dangerously small ompass. lou well know the prejudices that he poorer class of our people posses, ,nd you are perserveringly working long that line. Some week kneed aimers will, as you know, believe chat you say about the Alliance be ng the cause, of the low price of otton and high price of corn. Would lot the high price of corn be a very ood thing for corn farmers, and the dw price of cotton be a "good end" 0 the ragged millions of the worlds oor if monopolists, trusts, national anks, money kings, etc., were comelled, under pain of a life sentence 1 the penitentiary, to deal justly or eep their greedy hands entirely ofl' f our products, and our boasted ee government was compelled to isue and keep sufficient money in j / circulation to do the business of the people on a cash basis, and let prices regulate themselves as butter and eggs do in our own '*city by the branch." In order for you to make a better fight and have an idea of the principles you have ruthlessly tackled, I would advise you to* inform vourself.

The State's Pensioners. ; The State Board of Pensious wil] j meet some time during the present I week to revise the jjeusiou rolls pre' pared by the various County boards ! and make arrangements for the payment of the first installment of pensions on the otli instant. The Act does not specify any particular time for the second payment to be made. The money to pay the full amount is j on hand, and as it is but a small pit tance at best and the disabled anil destitute soldiers and the destitute widows of Confederate soldiers whc are to receive it will be greatly bene fited if the second payment follow? immediately upon the first, it is tc be hoped that the board will see fii to take some such action. As soon as the rolls are ready anc the wan-ants made out they will b< sent, as heretofore to the clerks o the courts of the several Counties fo: distribution to the parties who ar< entitled to them. s Nashville American. Farmers South and West, We wonder if the Alliance leader pvav cfrvn tViinlr nhmit and diseus the cross purposes to which they ar< striving. For instance, Kansas, Eli nois, Iowa and others Western farm ers are contending for an adjustmen of trade so that they can get a big ger price for their cornr wheat, porl beef, etc., which they have to sell t consumers in the States that do no produce them. On the other hanc Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Mississiji pi and other Southern States tha } raise cotton, potatoes, watermelons ! etc., are contending for such an ac ! justment of trade as will enable ther to realize a be^cr price for their pre . du,ce and at the same time enabl them to buy Western pork, eon ; wheat, beef and the like for lee [. money than they now pay. Th Mississippi, Alabama and other State i South want Tennessee mules for lee ) money, while the Tenness^r^rme is bent on ge*ti*ig more money fo his mul*v than he is now gettin, . from ??ese cotton raisers.
