J 1L. not Deiug aoie to aueuu lue auunur i on his rounds in the Fork, sent this writer to represent the Dispatch and to hunt up delinquents. Tuesday morning, in company with Mr. J. Weir Addy, who was duly deputized by the Auditor, I left the staid old town of 'Lexington for the rich hills and fertile bottoms of that country known in song and history as the "Dutch Fork"' of Lexington county, the inhabitants of which are worthy representatives of a noble ancestry. Without reflecting upon the other sections of the county, it is my opinion that the people of that section are industrious, progressive and well-to-do, and that it embraces some of as rich and fertile lauds as can be found in any other section of the State. At nightfall we arrived at the hospitable and pleas ?l i ht- a xv tt?i aiit UUUiU ui irxt. a., %?. naiunau^ij who kindly ministered to our horse. Mr. Haltiwanger has an interesting family and is a generous and thoughtful host. We spent Wednesday Dight with Mr. James B. Addy, who unstinted in his attention to us and he left nothing undone that would contribute to our comfort and pleasure. He is one of the most ardent Alliancemen in the county and an all round good fellow. Thursday night found U3 comfortably housed beneath the hospitable roof of Mr. J. E. Fulmer. he has a pretty home and is surrounded with peace and plenty. Fortune is certainly smiling on him as a reward of his thrift and industry. One of the Fork's best and most prosperous citizens is Elias Metz, where we put up Friday night. We always found a hearty welcome there - - i ana mis occasion was no exception to the rule. Saturday found us at home, behind the counters of the Bazaar, where the best fruits, candies, cigars and tobacco is sold. II. B. H. 4 ? Crossed Over the River. Mr. E. Sease who resided on Little Hollow Creek, after suffering for several months with heart trouble, peacefully and calmly passed from this transitory life and entered that rest which remainetb for the people of God at 1 o'clock Thursday last in the 7oth year of his age. In early life he gave his heart to the Master and picking up his cross he humbly followed in the footsteps of Jesus, and striving to live up to the golden rule of doing unto others as he would Viovo nthrrs dr> nnfn him and dninrr I " ? i this he lived at peace with God and man and won the esteem, respect and love of a large circle of relatives j and friends. For many years he was a faithful officer of Little Hollow Creek church and discharged his ' duties with marked ability. As a citizeD, he was law abiding and patriotic; as a neighbor was kind hearted in whom the suffering and afflicted found a friend. In the discharge of his family duties he was ever thoughtful of the comfort and happiness of those who were dependent upon him. Truly a good man has passed from this stage of action ! and has gone to receive and enjoy ! his reward. I MASONIC. ft A REGULAR COMMUNICATION Lexington Lodge, No. 152, /Sjr\ A. F.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: Doling the Christmas holidays the j young people of this part of the j county, and everybody <lse, enjoyed f themselves very much. The Christmas tree given by the St. Andrew's Sunday school was a success in every particular. Every scholar got a present. With Mr. J W. Bouknight, as organist, the choir sang a number of beautiful and appropriate pieces. Addresses were made by Hon. C. M. Efird, of Lexington, C. H., and Prof. Archer, of Irmo. i During Christmas week most do- | lighlful parties were given at the | hospitable home of Mrs. S. G. Huff man and Mr. A. S. Nuuainaker. Last j Tuesday evening another party was given at the cherry home of Mr. Ambrose M. Wingard. There was a host of visitors here during Christmas week. Miss Nola Haltiwanger, of Lexington, spent several days with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Isaiah Haltiwanger. Messrs. Benjamin Nunamaker and Curtis Speuce, of Newberry, spent the week visiting friends and rela tives. Miss Minnie Black, of Columbia, spent a day or so with Miss Ella Huffman. Miss Daisy Wright, of Columbia, visited her grandmother, Mrs. Sallie Huffmau. Mr. Edgar Clark, of Fairfield, and Mrs. John Swygert and daughter, Miss Annie, visited the family of Mr. A. S. Nunamaker. Mrs. Maiiah Nunamaker, of Selwood, spent several days in the neighborhood with friends and relatives. Mr. Charlie Huffman, a student of Newoerry College, spent the week with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Huffman. Miss Nannie and Miss Minnie Nunamaker, of Columbia, spent the Christmas holidays with their parents. Mr. G. F. Younginer visited his brother, Mr. T. P. Younginer, of Fairfield. Miss Mamie Lietzsey visited friends in Lexington and her brother, Mr. Hugh Lietzsey, spent the week with relatives in Newberry county. Miss Olive Haltiwanger, principal of Shady Grove Academy, spent Christmas week with her parents. Mr. William Smith, of Congaree, was among the visitors here Christ mas week. Masters Holmes Huffman, of Congaree, and Carl Huffman, and Joseph Wright, of Columbia, visited Mrs. Sallie Huffman. Mr. S. P. Younginer has returned from a business trip to Florida and Georgia. If every farmer in South Carolina, would emulate the example of Mr. Joseph Huffman, Sr., it would make but little difference about the low price of cotton. He has corn two or three years old and will make enough meat this year to do him two years. He does not believe in having his corn crib and meat house in the West. His idea is to raise his own meat and bread and make cotton a surplus crop. The result is he has plenty of the necessaries of life for himself and his fat and sleek mules, horses and cows. Mr. J. W. Younginer will move his saw mill in a few days from Richland county over in the Dutch Fork where he will saw for the public. The half dozen or more "Dutch dirt ovens" in this section are curiosities to your correspondent, who never saw anything of the kind before. I am told that a whole week's cooking can be done in one of these ovens at one time. Mr. Joe Mc-etze has recently bought land near the State farm aad has already moved to it. Mr. Haltiwanger has rented the house recently occupied by Mr. W. W. Spence who has moved to Newberry. Mr. Dock Ellisor has moved to the John Lorick place. Messrs. Thos. A Cbaffin and J. B. KobinsoD, spent Sunday in Columbia. There is evidently some special attraction over on that side of the river. Mr. Spires from near Lexington, moved into the house formerly occupied by Mr. Haltiwanger. Mr. Arthur Meetze moved into his new dwelling one day last week. Messrs. Frank Leitzsey and Thos. Younginer, killed a sixteen pound, wild cat during Christmas week. Mr. J. M. Geiger, of New Brookland, was buried at the Nate's bury! ing ground near St. Andrew's church j o o week before last. His death was I caused from paralysis. He was | eighty odd years old and leaves a | wife and several children to mourn their loss. AYe had the pleasure a few days ; age of walking over the Lexington State farm, which is ably superintended by Mr. Sam Miller, a native | of Abbeville county. The lands have | | been very much improved under Mr. j I Miller's management. We never j j saw better terraced lands anywhere, j j He made a splendid crop last year j | and is preparing to make another good crop this year. N. O. Pyles. Mg; Sandy Hun Cotton Growers. To the Editor cf tbe Disp^tcl;: TLe cotton growers of Sun.lv Run o * township met at Culler's school house, Saturday, January S, and organized by electing Dr. "\V. T. Brooker, President and X. B. Wanurwaker Secretary. A permanent organization was effected, as follows: lion. W. T. Brooker, President: Capr. J. C. I. Wannamaker and K. J. l??x)f, Vice Presidents: X. B. Wannamaker, Secretary. Dtlegates to the County Convention were th cted as follows: Dr. W. T. Brooker, X. B. "Wannamaker and W. H. Wannamaker; al- j ternates, M?j H. J. Seiblep, John C. Muller and J. W. Criin. The following committee was appointed to draft a constitution for the government of the Association: X. 13. "\Vannamaker, John C. Muller and J. W. Crim. The following resolutions introduced by X. 13. Wanuamaker were adopted with out a dissenting vote: Resolved, That it is the deliberate judgment of this meeting of the cotton growers of Sandy Run township that the lien law should be blotted from the statute books of South Carolina now and forever. 2, That said lien law is the most pernicious, baneful and foolhardy law ever placed upon the statute books of this commonwealth. 3, That we believe that there should be coucert of action along this line by the law making bodies of every State and Territory whose principal money crop is cotton. 4, That we require our represenL A- 1 __1 _ r IV. ? T tauves iu uom uruucueo ui iuu islature to labor for its speedy and unconditional repeal. 5, That the privilege tax on fertilizers should be reduced to a nominal sum?an amount sufficient to pay the expenses of au analysis and no more. G, That while this reduction would doubtless militate against the interest of the A. and 51 College of the State (the sole beneficiary of this tax) its efficiency would not be materially impaired thereby, and at any rate we must be just before we arc generous. The farmers are by no means the only people who are to be benefited by the A. and M. College, but theirs is the exclusive privilege to paying this tax. 7, That the euforced of the cost of producing quence upon the great cf^reciation in the price, renders it imperative that every element of cost possible of elimination be sedulously weeded cu'; and as commercial fertilizers is an appreciable and necessary element of cost, our Railroad Commissioners should see to it that the rates charged for hauling feitilizers for the ap.M-nnnliin oooarm eVirmlrl lip GYP/I jjl UUbUiL)^ OtttCUU WUUUiu mw m?vv? with special reference to the diminished returns from our principal crop. 8, That we give our hearty and unequivocal endorsement to the anti option bill introduced by our immediate Representative in Congress, Hon. J. Wm. Stokes, and now pending before that body, and we trust every effort will be put forth to expedite its passage so that its benefits may be secured to the cotton growers at the earliest possible moment. The Sandy Run Cotton Growers' Protective Association then adjourned subject to the call of President. W. T. Brocker, President. N. B. Wannamaker, Secretary. During the pust two years, Mrs. J W. Alexander, wife of the editor of the Waynesboro, (Miss.) Times, has, in a great many instances, relieved her baby when in the first stages of croup, by giving it Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. She looks upon this remedy as a household necessity and believes that no better medicine has ever been put in bottles. There are many thousands of mothers in this broad laud, who are of the same opinion. It is the only remedy that can always be depended upon as a preventive and cure for croup. The 2o and oO cent bottles are for sale by J J. E. K iufmann. MARRIED. On December 23, 1837, by the j Rev. S. J.
