The State Fair.
'Allusion has been more than once
made to the approaching State Fair,.
and we do so again, as it is importaul
that ..the- people be kept advised on
this subject. In those sections where
County Fairs are held we feel certain
that active steps will-be taken to send
full representations, as well as articles
for exhibition, but in those Counties
where Fairsare not held forgetfulness
may creep in and nothing be done to
take part in. it. We earnestly ask.
therefore, that our:--farmers not only
attend the approaching Fair but, send
some of their stock and products for
ezhibitioa. The Society offers $300
for the- best County display :of pro
ducts, &.,i and Abbeville challenges
Sthe State on that occasion. If News

Death of (eo..E. Elford. --
The -GreenvilleZVews chronicles the
painful and sad intelligene of -the
death in that . city of Mr. Geo. E.
Elford, one of our. oldest-and truest
friends, and gives a tribute to his
memory which will find a ~response in
the hearts of all who knew him..Long
years ago we were associated with
him intimately, and learned to esteem
him for his many virtues.and noble
traits of character, and now we drop a
tear to his .memory. The upright,
christian gentlemen -was ever sgorna in
all his walks, and we mourn that one
so full of virtue and good qualities is
no. more. .We copy from the News.:
Mr. Elford was born in Charleston,
where he learned his trade as a printer
in the offiee 6f the Charleston CJourier,
He occupied tihe position of foreman
for some time in Columbia, and moved
to Greenville, when he became the
editor and proprietor of the .Moun
taineer. At the time of his death he
was engaged in business in a book
store -under the name and style of
Elford & Dargan. -He was in the fifty
first year of his age, and in the very
zenith of his usefal.ess. The Baptist
Church, of which he had been a.con
sistent member and deacon for many
years, has met with a terrible blow. He
was the Superintendent of the Sabbath
School in that Church, and well may
the people say: "What will the Church
and Sunday School do, and who can
they get to supply his place ?"
'Ihe deceased was respected and be
loved by all, for his gentle and quiet
manners, polite and courteous, modest
and retiring disposition made every
one his friend. Greenville has lost
one of her best* citizens, and society
the example of an upright and honest
man. When asked by his.business
partner if all was peaceful, his answer
was, "All is peaceful; all is clear."
We knew him* long, and loved him
well; and as ww witnessed the last
efforts of" nature to sustain life, we felt
that a Christian was "going home."

rains ofruth and tells the tal6 of
the country's lack of prosperity in
unmistakable language. It -speaks
volumes, although the estimate of cot
L .to the acre is .under the average 4
for this section. There can be but one e3
opinion on the subject, that entirely li
too much attention is paid to 'cotton, of
ad awen-the farmer- neglects G
other things and has to buy all of his fo
supplies, its culture entails loss rather
tan...profit. The-Lamp -sheds its
light thus: - d<
To-day was repeated what to every bi
patriot must be a painful sight. A
countiyinan,mi*scalled a farmer,brougbt t
his cotton-to town, sold for it for 1i g1
cents, and expended part of its pro- fi
ceeds in the purchase of a middling ,
of meat, for which he paid nearly es
eight dollars. For our own edification .
let us make. a small calculation, and t
see how much land planted in cotton
this .year will raise a hog. Firstly, N
we will allow. that. if the season con- st
tinues. propitious, an average of one
bale of cotton to six acres of land may b
be made. This bale will sell for fifty cc
dollars, and deduct the cost of bag- at
ging and ties, say two dollars, we o
have for our crop eight.dollars an. acre.
Secondly, if a middling of meat-is
worth eight dollars, two middlings are s
worth sixteen dollars, and a whole ra
bog. say, for the sake of round num
bers and to keep us from feeling too
blue . about . it, is worth, no, sells for
thirty-two dollars. Thus you see, if we
have luk-, we cin. by planting cotton, D
raise one bog to four acres, and we'll F
have- no hog stealing in our midst. D
By the way, here is a conundrum for
some of our.: Legislators: Why is it
only- a'petty offence to steal bacon d(
raised the ante bellim wy, while it ve
is a penitentiary crime to purloin that 2j
raised according to the mode now pre- p
vailing. In conclusion, let us promise
to do. better in future,, and that we
may faithfully carry out this promise, Si
let us sow this month a large quantity ni
of rust proof oats, and in January a a
few more.
