Gov't Report PURE An Estimable Lady Joins tlie Great j Majority. Mrs. Charlotte, wife of Mr. Drurv ! Harmai), sweetly fell asleep in the arms of Jesus Sunday, January 19:b, 189G, in the 8Sth year of her age. Mrs. Harman sustained serious injuries about eight months ago, by i falling down the steps of her rcsi- j dence, from the effects of which she i on/1 irpvn r>prll1 nc. ! lie V CI I ClVKltU UUU "VIV, ^ j the immediate cause of her death. She was a faithful and consistent j member of the Methodist branch of the Chiistian Church, having connected herself with it in the early j years of her life, and before the j weight of years told heavily upon I her, she took an active part iu all ; church work and was foremost in j missions of mercy and deeds of kind- j ness and charity. Having adopted j the golden law as her precept in life [ she came as near living up to to the j requirements of the rule as it were possible for imperfect humanity to do. She was perhaps the most well informed woman in the county on the affairs of the ante helium period, i, having met and conversed with Cul- i houn, Hayne, MeDuffie, Hampton { and other prominent men in the his j tory of those times. She was buried Monday at 11 o'clock in the family burying ground, Rov. Mr. Quick conducting the funeral services. A good woman has j passed off the stage of action to i enter into that rest which remaiueth i ' for the people of God. I - A Faithful Servant'. ! j Newspapers in different sections of < the State have from time to time ] made mention of some worthy colored man whose fidelity to the interests of his master during the hardships and privations incident to the late j war as worthy of commendation; but | so far as we remember Lexington has j never heretofore publicly lay claim !o one who ''wore the gray" and was i true to h's master in those inemora- ! ble and Stirling days of 18G1-65? and i while there are doubtless, many col- 1 ored men in the county whose deeds ! of heroism in battle and whose self- j sacrifice and self denial, in order that j the pleasure and comfort of their i masters might be increased should ' : be perpetuated in song and story ; j yet it is our purpose at this time to I briefly call the attention of our readers to only one who served through j t the entire war and never once be- 1 : trayed a single trust placed in him. j ; Westley Raw], alias Fox entered j ; the service as the body servant |? of Dr. T. S. Fox, April 12, j j 18G1 and served with honor ; and bravery throughout the entir j { war. Duriug the four years of that j desperate and bloody struggle he j j participated in thirty-seven battles, I c but was never wounded. At the ' time that Lis Colonel, (Moore) of the ! 6Gtli North Carolina regiment, re- I c ceived his death wound at the battle ( of Cold Harbor, Rawl was within a , j shoit distance of him, crawling on his stomach, snake fashion with the rations of his Colonc-l on his back, j [ when the built t struck C?l. Moore in 1 the throat killing him. The reminiscences of Rawl are rich in amusement and at times pathetic, 1 and in relating them his eyes Hash 1 with the fire and vigor of youth or j ' fills with tears as the occasion calls J for, and he becomes animated and j enthused as his memory goes back- ward to those days which proved the grit of which men were made and marked an epoch in the history of * i 3 * . 1 1 . tnis nation never surpasseu ior oravery, suffering and endurance by any : previous generation and cannot be i by any succeeding one. i The Literary League. i j At the meeting of the Lexington j, Literary League last evening, the | constitution and by-laws to go vein that body were adopted and the pro- j , gram for the evening rendered. ? yj [ | The following officers were elected j to serve for the ensuing month: President?S.

The circulation of the Dispatch is increasing every da\*, not by the one and two hundreds, as is claimed by some papers, but by the addition of one or two names.

The newspapers are giving their annual advice to fanners about what to plant and what not to plant, and how to run their farms in general; yet, if the farmers were to tell these same editors bow to run a newspaper it would be considered ratber gratuitous, if not impertinent, advice. Mr. Simon N. Harmau, of the Savilla section, has moved near Wagener, in Aiken county. lie is well pleased with his new home and thinks the change is for the best. He is of the opinion that it is much easier to turn sand than rocks, and perhaps he is right even if the results are not as large.

STREET, c:. day; Lexington, second Tuesday in each July 4 - tr A Promising Young Life Ended. Miss Emma Virginia, the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. 13. 0. Caugbman of Columbia, departed this transitory life Thursday morn mg, January n>Lii, irsuo, ai > ociock, in the 1'Jtli year of bcr age. To contemplate death iu any form and under any circumstance is sad but to see the form one whose life was just bursting into the full bloom of glorious womanhood is peculiarly sad and distressing, and weareforciably reminded that "in the midst of life we are in death. Like the broken flower plucked by the raging storms sweeping over the g arden of love matured by the tender and thoughtful care of loving hands and mind, to bloom and shed the richness of its sweet perfume in other places and amid other scenes, so the sweet and beautiful young life of Virginia went out to be caught up by the white robed messenger of God and transplanted in the garden of paradise to bloom forevermore. Her end was calm and peaceful, retaining her conciousness to the end, she realized that the time of her departure had come and she met relentless and cruel death as becoming one who had made her peace with God and trusted implicitly in me promise of a never fading and never ending immortality beyond this vali of tears and trouble. A short while before the end came she called her weeping loved ones to her dying couch and bade them an affectionate farewell, remarking to her father as the dews of death settled upon her brows, that she "was floating in the air." Gently the lamp of life was extinguished, and thus ended a noble young life. Her remains were brought to Lexington Thursday, to await interment in St. Stephen's Cemetery Friday. The following gentlemen were the pall bearers: Messrs. S. 0. Kaminer, James P. Meetze. JamesE. Kendrix, James E. Pawl, W. Pickens Poof, James W. Ogilvie. The services at the church, conducted by her pastor, Rev. Dr. Wiugard, of Columbia, were the most solemn and impressive that we have ever listened to. The music was in keeping with the sermon and was sweetly lendered by the chcir, composed of Misses Mary Hiller and Nola Haltiwanger .and Messrs. James E. Hendrix, S. O. Kaminer, J. Brooks "Wiugard and W. P Poof. Pev. J. G. Graichen conducted the services at the grave in his usual impressive maimer, arid the mortal remains of the young girl were consigned to the boscm of moiher earth to await the dawn of the resurrection morn. To the stricken parents and bereaved family we extend our heartfelt sympathies. ^ The State of South Carolina, CO UXTY OF LEXIXG TOX. By 0. E. Leaphart, Probate Judge. TTTHEREAS, II. A. SPANN.
