The Lexington Dispatch Burned April 25th; rebuilt -Julv 19, 1891 G. M. HARM AN, Editor ard Publisher LEXINGTON, S. C., WEDNESDAY. JUNE 8. 1808 Those were grand, and noble utterances of Govercer Ellerbe to the South Carolina boys who left Columbia yesterday for Chickaruauga They breathed the spirit cf the true patriot and the language was graud and sublime. His selection of the hero for the South Carolina boys to imitate could not have been better made. The war record of Stonewall Torttc/Mi is oiniinnslv brilliant with W av/aovu dashing gallantry, daring bravery, unparalleled strategy and successful execution. His moral character is above reproach and no blot tarnishes his fair name nor dims the halo which enshrines his fame. Governor Elltrbe truly said tbat "the eyes of tie people of South Carolina are upon you. *** The good name of South Carolina is safe in your hands.'' The people of the State are expecting our boys to make a glorious record for themselves where the bullets fly thickest, the smoke of battle hangs darkest and the fight rages mosi fiercely as did their sires before them, and in this expectation the people will not be disappointed if our boys are given half a chance Being sons of men who have passed through wars raged in a just and righteous cause and inured to the hardships, privations and dangers of army life and in whose blood not one drop of fear flowed, and from a ~ ... V State ricn tn mswric uumg gallant bravery upon the field of battle, they will preserve unsullied and unspotted the fair name of the State and will excel, if possible, the glorious record of their fathers. His closing words are ladened with undeniable truths and his model can be safely followed, for the following of which leads only to immortal honor, undying love and never fading glory. His words are as follows: "Permit me to say before bidding you adieu j that Stonewall Jackson wasthegreatest military genius on either side in the late war. He never uttered an oath, he never drauk or bet on cards. In behalf of the loved ones left behind you, I ask you to remember thisOur military relations," adds the Governor, "are severed. You are now under the control of the United States government. Hut there are A-mnpuinnien} never tICO 11 liRU l>Lt^ ? sever?mv heart goes with you. God bless you." The South Carolina regiment left Co'umbia for Cbickamauga last Monday afternoon. Business was entirely suspended and the merchants closed their stores. The State says <lit was an all absorbing theme and one which all delighted to discuss. Mothers had bound the warrior's sash around their boys and were now to see them marching forth in response to their country's call to do or die. Her nob'e sons, clothed in the warrior's robes, marched in majestic splendor in the presence of thousands of admiring friends. The demonstra tions of patriotism were characteristic of South Carolinians, and they honored themselves in honoring the volunteers." The battalion is still in Columbia awaiting orders to move, which are daily expected. It is probIt rr-ill Ko ooaiomorl fn UUie l Li at lit nui wt usuiquvv. .v ^v ? Butler's command. Glorious news comes from Manila of a vigorous fight bttween the insurgents and the Spaniards. It is claimed that the insurgents have won several victories and have taken piboners about 1,800 men and 50 officers of the Spanish troop9 and over a thousand killed. It is reported by cable, soon after he had secured the co-operation of the insurgent chief, Aquinaldo, Admiral Dewey would see to it that the insurgents observed the rules of civilized warfare. This caution was made necessary by the terrible tales that circulated of the barbarous treatment of prisoneis captured by the insurgents. It is sin cerely hoped that Aquinaldo will see to it that this agreement is observed in the case of the 1,800 prisoners he now holds, for it is believed in official circles that the nations of the civilized world will hold the Uuited States morally responsible for any great excesses that may be committed in the Phillipincs as a result of cur action there. Major General M. C. Butler passed through Columbia Saturday, en route for "Washington, from whence he will go to the camp in Virginia, near I Washington. It is likely that his ! division will be made up entirely j with troops from the States of New 1 York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and i Ohio. It is probable that he will j command the Porto Rico invasion ! | expedition. The Spaniards think Santiago im - pregnable; Schley thinks otherwise and will proceed to put his theory i into practice by reducing its fortifi- I ca'ions. We desire to express our sympathy anil condolence with Brother Mc Lenna, of the Johnston Monitor Just last week he expressed bis gratScation that there were two cluily papers in the State which did not publish their war news in double column, one of which being the C Jumbia Register. He seemed to be elated at being saved the inflection of having to pour over two columns of uninteresting war Dews during these hot da)s and quaffed great gulps of satisfaction in reading the single column Register. But, alas ! tiie Itegieter nas ouiuouo us and not only prints war news in djuble column but also its editorials We can feel for you brother and you have our deepest commiseration in this your hour of sore distress. We have been inflicted with a like infliction, have poured over double columns of matter with flaming head lines indarge type, chronicling signal victory of the American navy, in which engagement so man} vessels were sunk and five hundred | Spaniard soldiers killed, and not an American life lost, nor a ship hit, only find the whole story contradict d ia one little, obscure aad insignificant liDe at the bottom. We try to i give the war news in a fair, impartial a id unvarnished manner, culling out all exagerated accounts ana giving ! only what we conceive to be the [ truth. Irmo Jottings. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Fiiday evening, June the 3rd, a large audience assembled at Irmo ! Academy to witness the exercises I which brought to a close for this ! term the school of Miss M. E. Crooks. | The house was filled to its utmost : capacity and crowded around outside, j every one eager to witness as much j of the exercises as possible. Every| thing was carried out in the best of style, and without special mention of ; any who took part in these exercises, I am in position to say that on equal i grounds the speeches and dialogues I could not be surpassed. From the | smallest to the largest all were in the best of spirits and acted tbeir parts with completeness. The music, which was perfectly enchanting, was furnished by Mr. John Bouknight and Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Swygert. Ilev. S. C. Ballentine delivered a verj short address, owing to the 'a eness I of the hour, but no more appropriate j and instructive language could be | contained in the same number of words and sentences as were in those used by him. Miss Crooks has given general satisfaction, and when the i board of truolecs meet to elect a teacher for the next term we predict that she will more than likely be called to fill the position. Quite an elaborate program of the exhibition was carried out to peifec tion. Space forbids its publication. Capt. J. H. Counts presented your correspondent with a very nice peach which is only a specimen of some that are growing and ripening on his place. I Mrs. Wade T. Weed who was I bitten some time ago by a very | poisonous snake, while getting pcta toes from a bank, I am glad to say, has about recovered. Rev. M. L. Banks who has been confined to his bed with fever is do better. Mrs. J. W. Hook also ia codfined to bed with the same disease. We hope, however, that we shall Dot have such a proloDged siege of fever as we did last year. Frank Wted is adjudged by all guilty of cowslaughter ard furnishes j our town with excellent beef. Rev. J. Walter Dickson and sen are visiting at his daughter's, Mrs. M. L. Banks. Mr. F. H. Suber ha3 gone to Columbia to take a business course. Sombody got hold of Judge Shealy a few days ago and played havoc with bis whiskers. The Judge says he only had them trimmed down preparatory to a clean shave before entering the next campaign. The drought that is upon us is doiDg much harm to all farm products, and if rain delays much longer everything will very likely be cut short. We have a large interest in j the blackber-y crop, and if we are j cut out of that I realy don't kDow | what will become of us, for spring j chickens grow mighty slow and the hens don't lay much and the roosters not at all.

To the EJitor of the Dispatch: 'S . il- II il. _ 1 Uwing 10 ice sman pox scare, iue , professors and trustees of LeesviJle ; College very wisely decided to change the programme for the commence- ' ment exercises. The exercises were held duriug last week and proved most satisfactorily that we have oDe i of the best conducted colleges iu the \ State. The students and graduates acquitted themselves in a manner that was highly creditable to the institution. Eight young men and j young ladies received iheir diploma?, and will dow go forth to win their fortunes. Three medals were awarded iu close contests, Misses Gertrude Ox-jct and Lillie Haynes and Mr. 13. PI aid v being the successful contestants. Tbis has been a most successful year for the college and he enrollment has been larger than ever in the history of this popular institution. Rev. J. Austin's handsome new residence is uearing completion. When completed it will bo one of the best as wtll as most beautiful houses in our city. It is on the comer of main and church streets and will add much to our already beautiful viliage Miss Willie Howes of Yoikville, a most charming young lady, is visiting friends and lelalives here. Mr. J. A. West of Charleston, who has been under the skillful treatment of Dr. D. M. Crosson for seme weeks, is much improved. Dr. Jumes Crosson, one of our rising young men, has located in the Rocky Well section to practice I s profession. Dr. Jim graduated last spring at the Memphis Medical College afhr a thiee years course of study with high honors A long experience as a drug clerk together with a thorough college training and hospital practice eminently qualifies nim for the high responsibilities of an active practitioner. His host of friends predict for him a brilliant and successful career in bis chosen profession. Mr. S. L. Oxner is now manufac turing the celebrated Coats Planter. This machine is one of the most com plete as well as most useful tbat He writer has ever seen. It can bo ail justed to drop all manner and quan tity of seed from the smallest to the largest. So thorough and comple'e has the inventor done liis work that ;t will perform the feat of dropping the seed aDy distance apart desired ai d at the same time will place the fertilizer on one or both sides of the seed in such quantities and proportions wished. To add to its interest to our people, it was invented by a Lexingtonian, Mr. Simon Coats. Every farmer and gardner should invest a few dollars in this useful and time and money saving planter. Sol.

Mr. Edwin Monts of Newberry, is hauling lumber from near here to build him a residence near Little Mountain. G. W. Hiller is speculating on all kinds of stock. Arthur Metze has purchased a lightning rod wagon and is an agent for a reliable company and is now out canvassing the county. We wish him much-success in his new business, Johnny Steel lost a fine young mule last week.

The hearty man who is always laughing doesn't have any trouble with his digestion. It has been said that laughing makes people healthy. The truth is that health makes people laugh. It is impossible to estimate the tremendous influence of health upon human character. A man with a headache will not be in a happy, contented frame of mind. A man who suffers from a weak stomach and an impaired digestion will sit and grumble through the best meal ever prepared. A bilious man who is not a oore, is deserving of a place in a museum. A nervous man who is not petulent and fault-finding is a curiosity. All these con UUloris icau u? .. ..^ victim becomes not only disagreeable, but dependent as well. A wise wife will realize that while the old saving: that a " man's heart is in his stomach," is not literally true, it is a fact that his stomach sweetens or sours his character according as it is healthy or unhealthy. Dr. Pierce's ('.olden Medical Discovery is the best of medicines for the conditions described. It makes the weak stomach strong. the impaired digestion perfect, invigorates the liver, purifies and enriches the blood and tones the nerves. It tears down half-dead, inert tissues and replaces them with the firm muscular tissues of health. It builds new and healthy nerve fibres and brain cells. It dissipates nervousness and melancholy and imparts mental elasticity and courage. | It is the best of all known medicines for nervous disordeis. 'Through your skiliful treatment I am ouce more a well man." writes J X Arnold, lisq., of Candy, I.ogau Co.. Xebr. " I suffered for years and could not find relief until I commenced taking your ' Golden Medical Discovery.' I suffered with constipation and torpidity of liver which resulted in irritation of the prostate and inflammation of the bladder. I had only taken one bottle when I found great relief. The medicine has effected a permanent cure." Ercokland Locals. fr An Interesting Budget of News From Across the River. Columbia Regi<t< r. Wm. Harris, a notorious thief from the Swansea vicinity, was eaptuied here by J. C. Cooper, officer. The Degro had in his possession an old grey nag which was for sa'e. His price beiDg an unusually small one, suspicion v.as laised, and upon the close of a sale of ?2 for the animal, William was arrested and lodged sifely in jail. Soon after his arrest a posse of men from Swansea, at full speed, rode into town and reported the fact that William had broken in ! Mr. Paul E Hutto's store at Swan! I sea and stolen goods to the amount of 810, had bridled a mule to take his departure when he was interfered with by the owner and made his escape.

The fortifications at Cardenas have | been repaird. j Ttoops are still being concentrated 1 at i arapa, r la. i The Spanish mint is coining a mil- ! lion silver pesetas daily. Char eston is organizing a battalion fjr a second call for volunteers. Supplies, men and ammunition are still being sent forward to Dewey. Columbia is making an dibit to I organize another military company. The completion of Fort Moultrie | at Chaileston is being pushed rapidly. The result of the bombardment of | Santiago was a complete American vlctoi y. Gen. Garcia, it is said, will command the insurgent forces in the attack on Santiago. It is said that there are enough provisions at Santiago to last the Spaniards a year. The Mohican has sailed for Manila and the Monterey and Brutus will follow in succession. The cry of Spain is now for peace, while that of the Americans is, "Remember the Maine." The oeerless shin Oregon, the J. JL O ' nride of Uncle Sam's navv, has joined L v m Almiral Simpson's fleet. The Russian Bear is growling but it does not frighten the American Eagle and the English Lion. Itepoit has it Ibat the Spanish torpedo beat destroyer, Terror, has been blown up by the Americans. The Spanish forces in Cuba are taking every possible precaution to meet the Americans when they come. Five thousand American soldiers have been landed near Santiago and a juncture has been formed with Garcia. Greenville has sent two companies of volunteers to the front in response to the first call, and has another com pany under organization for the second call. Cipt. Charles V. Gtindley is dead. He was commander of the Oiympia, Dewey's fligship, and was one of the Manila heroes. His death wgs the result of natural causes. It i9 said that the forts at Santiago were built with reference to sea attack alone, and the heights which command them from the land side are left unprotected. Great activity is still noticeable at Cadiz. The manoeuvers and trials of warships are taking place every day. Ia a few days the Lepantowill be ready for active service. The American Administration has CDnfirmatory advices from our Consul at Martanique that a Spanish fleet is in the neighborhood, and are consid eratly worried over the matter. It is believed to be the Camara fleet. On June 2d the House of Representatives practically passed, without debate, the emergency deficiency bill, carrying with it an appropriation of ?17,845,000 providing for emergency expenses of the army and j navy. Gen. Blanco, in command of the Spanish forces in Cuba, has ordered all foreign newspaper correspondents to leave the island, and says that when seized they will be treated as spies and judged as such according to the military code. The Spanish authorities deny that any portion of the Spanish fleet has passed Madagascar cn the way to the Phillipines, but notwithstanding the denial some people are of the belief that there is some truth in the i report that the Spanish fleet has gone I to attack Dewey. It may go, but it will never come back. The second regiment of Virginia volunteers left Richmond for the front on the 2d, being escorted to the depot by all the local camps of Confederate veterans. All along the line of March the sidewalks were j crowded with men, women and children, and on many houses Hags, bunting and other patiiotic emblems were < displayed in great profusion. The talk of invadiDg .Spain is be- ! ing revived in administration circles and the naval war board is seriously discussing a plan of carrying the war into Spanish waters. Of the vessels which will whip the Spaniards j out of their boots in their own waters j the following were named: The New j York, the Brooklyn, the Minneapolis, the Columbia, the St. Loui?, ihe St. Paul, the Harvaul and the Yale. < The South Carolina regiment has I . at last been completed by taking the j ' Sumter Guauls, Company B, from j i the independent battalion and Col.
