The comparison of the returns from this county for last year and this, is as follows: 1897, 1,958,515; 1898,1,778,840. This means a deficit which will have to be made up some day. The Rev. John O. Wilson, D. D., Editor of the Southern Christian Advocate, has been appointed by Bishop Duncan to succeed the lamented J. Walter Dickson, deceased, as Presiding Elder of Columbia District of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. It is said to be one of the best appointments tbat could have possibly been made.

The barbecue at Kleckley's lu9t Saturday was quite a big affiir. Tne candidates for Legislative honors were on the ground and during the day were given an opportunity to mouut the stump and give the people their views on questions which will come up before the two successful ones for acceptance or rejection. The candidates for the other county j offices were out iu full force and were delighted to meet so many of the "dear people", and all day the favorite tune of the candidate could be heard on all sides, as he gently hummed in the ear of a free and independent voter, "Howdy," Howdy do you do? How's your wife and how's you? Mr. T. F. Brantley, candidate for Congress, from this District gave the people his views on national issues. Dr. J. Wm. Stokes, the incumbent and candidate for re-election, came over late in the day and made a short address in which he briefly reviewed his work in Congress and the reforms along the financial and economical lines that he was battling and working for and the adoption of which would give a suffering people relief from the evils of discriminating laws now on the statute books. All agree that it was a pleasant occasion and enjoyed by all. The barbecue at Lorick's, in the Fork, was attended by the people of the surrounding country. But few candidates were on the grourfd, but those few were a host in themselves, in good heartedness, jovility and good humor. W. H. Sharpe, Esq , was the. only candidate for Legislative honors present, and it is said that he made a capital address, which was well and favorably received by his hearers. * TTT n, , i _ _ J Dr. J. nrn. otoaes was presein auu entertained the crowd with an exhaustive and comprehensive address on the national issues and beiug at his best and being in his own baliwick, he was at home and made a ringing and telling speech. Several other candidates whose" names we did not learn were introduced and made short addresses. Thus ended two pleasant occasions. ? A Servant of Crod Enters Into Rest. Rev. J. Walter Dickson, Presiding Elder of Columbia District, in which the Methodist churches in this county are a part, ceased from his earthly labors, and entered into that rest which remaineth for the people of God in Anderson last Saturday. He had been in feeble health for some time, and had gone to Anderson in the hope of recuperating by a needed rest from his warfare against the powers and dominion of darkness and eternal death; but none anticipated that the end was so near; none saw the black wings of death overshadow the devout soldier of the cross; nor realized that his icy fingers were already laid upon his vitals and that he had for the last time 1.: i .L. -l prociamieu iuu giunous utrwa ui peace and pardon offered to a sin cursed world through the mediation of a resurrected Saviour; that for the last time he had warned sinners to tlee the wrath to come and to seek pardon and forgiveness while they could be found, and that for the last time he had touchingly and feelingly described the beauties, the glory, and the magnificence of that heavenly O J city whose architect and builder was God, and when the news of his death was received by the people of his charge, especially in the rural districts, it was as startling as a clap of thunder from a clear sky. Mr. Dickson was one of most intellectual ministers in the South Carolina Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South; as a theologian he was deep, logical and profound: as a scholar he was ripe and as an orator he was grandly eloquent. A Christian of great strength, yet withal following the footsteps of his Lord with an humble and lowly spirit, counting all things lost save the salvation of souls to the honor and glory of God. Abounding in faith, hope and charity, his presence was a benediction and gentleness flawed from bim like He dews on Hermon. He fell as be lived, a God feariDg and God loving man, and witb childlike trust in tbe promises of Jesus, bis KiDg. Having on bis wedding garments, witb bis lamp trimmed ai d burning, death had for bim no sting nor tbe grave no borror, for death was swallowed up in victory and tbe beautiful garden of Eden opens just beyond tbe narrow confines of tbe grave. 'Servant of God well doue. Rest from thy loved employ; The battle's fought, the vie lory's won, Enter thy Master's joys." A Desperate Encounter. The Scufti town Guards made a dariug and gallant attack upon Camp Wateruic-lou Patch, near 12 Mile creek last week, where the enemy was stroDgly fortified amid the luxuriant t 1 3 i.i growm 01 vines, lenves auu ujusm/ujo. After^a desperate charge the Guards captured the cuter fortifications nearest the edge of the woods and took man\^>risouera. The left flank of the Guards engaged the enemy's right flank, while the Ridge Pea Rifles assaulted Hen Roost whose garrision is uuder command of Gen. Spanish Andalusian, from the rear, doing much damage and carrying off many prisoners. After the fatigue of battle was over, at Camp Huckleberry our boys refreshed themselves with I chicken fries and stews which were washed down by great gulps of juicy melon. So watchful is our brave militia that Dot even a Spanish onion, or a Spanish piudar, nor a Spanish potato, nor a Spanish fly can come anywhere uear Lexington but what our boys will discover their presence acd go out and capture them. "Where the Hell is Josh?" For years it has been our custom to attend the various barbecues in the pursuii of pleasure and profit. This year it has been impossible for us to leave the office on account of a pressure of work in the mechanical department, and to keep up with the work it has been necessary to resume the handling of the "stick and rule." The candidates inform us tbatin mingling with the people in their rounds it wa9 a common occurrence to be asked the question, "Where the hell is Josh?" We appreciate the inquiry after us by our friends and assure them that while not being able at this time to be present with them in the flesh, we are ever present with them in the spirit. We will be with you when the work rolls by. Have that "cart wheel" ready against our coming. , Barbecues. The candidates will have to get a move on them to visit all the barbecues advertised, to take place this week. The first to be given is at Amick's Ferry and will come off Friday, and we presume that this will be the starting point for the candidates. Everybody in that neighborhood should turn out, enjoy a good dinner ?n^ hour the r>:i nrliHftt.ps fell tlipir tale of woe. Saturday, at Hilton, Messrs. HaltiwaDger & Amick will feed the huDgry with a well prepared dinner of barbecued meats, hash and the necessary wherewith all. D. M. Drafts will serve this ccmmunity with an excellent cue, on Saturday, and everybody hereabouts will attend. It is announced that Hon. J. Win. Stokes, will be there and probably Mr. BraDtley, his competitor, will also be present. Four miles south of Lewiedalr, Messrs. Frye & Taylor, will give | their barbecue next Saturday. The best cuist in the county will preside over the pit, while a brass band will furnish the music. Candidates will be present. An Old Idea. Every day strengthens the belief of eminent physicians that impure blood is the cause of the majority of our diseases. Twenty-five years a<ro tin's theory was used as a basin for the formula of Browns'Iron Bitters. The many remarkable cures effected by this famous old household remedy are sufficient to prove that the theory is correct. Browns'Iron Bitters is sold by all dealers. . ? ? The New Candidates. The friends of Drayton E. Clark announce him a candidate for Magistrate for Boiling Springs and Black Creek townships. Mr. J. Brooks Wingard's friends, believing him to be composed of ex/?oUant T.oeriQlfltirp material. ftti wt"fc"1' 6* ? Bounces him for the House. Knowing the ability of W. A. Oxner, his friends announce him a candidate for Magistrate for Congaree township. The experience of Rev. E. L Lybrand in the school room induces his friends to nominate him for the office of County Superintendent of Education. The many friends of D. Tillman Hare believe that his knowledge cf mechanics and years of practical experience make him the most suitable person for the position of County Supervisor and so nominate him for that office.
