Our readers will boar in mind that thc State Agrioultural Fair will be hold iu Col umbia on tho 10th, 11th aud 12th of Novem ber, 1889. This being tho first Fuir since the war, will possess an unusual interest and . - should be attooded by everyone who can spare the mea os for that purpose We may expcot . to see there, tho best species of improved stock, and the various kinds of machinery adapted to our soil and productions. Apart from this, the information whioh may bo dc . rived by conversation with the most suoooaa 'ful planters and stock grow?, -. of tho State, will provo valuable to th oso anxiou3 to im prove themselves in this high calling. Wo ?have received from Messrs. Walker, Evans & Cogswell, of Charleston, the premium list for the present year. It shows tho people are in . earnest in tho matter and intend to make it ?worthy of tho State. Premiums aro offered for all thc varietios of field crops, domcatio anmials, poultry, household economy, fruits, ?bouthorn domestic fubrios, .southern manufac tures and implements of husbandry and ma chinery generally. We look forward to its success as a certain fact and hope it may work the good intended by its originators. Grand Jurors Attention is called to section 88 of an Aot -entitled " Aa Act to regulato thc manner of drawing Juries," whioh roads au follows : '?Tho Clerk of tho Court of General Sessions in each County, not less than fifteen days before the /commencement of the first torin of tho Court .in ?noh year, shall issue writs of venire facias iin each County for eighteen Grand Jurors, to ibo returned to that Court, who shall bo held . to serve at caoh torin thereof, throughout the -year, and until another Grand Jury is empan eled in their stead." From the reading of ?this section, it will bo seen that tho same v Grand Jury will bo required to sorve at tho i -next term of our Court, as at the lost, and -that-.thereafter the Grand Jury drawn for the March term Of tho Court will servo through out tho year. i . .*???.. South Carolina Bank? Tho " Charleston Courier " informs us that nt a meeting of tho stockholders of tho Plan ters' and Mechanics' Hank, hold in that city on tho 12th instant, 15,007 shares wcro rep resented. This being not a quorum the meet ing was not a legal one, but au an encourage ment to the Directors Mr. C. G. Mom minger offered resolutions looking to tho re-establish ment, of tho Hank, and requesting tho Direc tors to tako ?nob ateps os 11 in their judgment . will best promoto that object." The report j of Mr. Pr?oglo, reforc? of the Hank, was read .and showed that there were ampio assets to .diaohargo tho liabilities of the Bank, and to carry on banking operations. It will be grat ifying to witness tho circulation of the bills .qf our State Banks again. Tho Bills of tho Union Bank are alroady at par, and tho Plan ters' and Mechanics' Bank is about to follow suit. .??'.'5??V The Investigating Commit too This Committeo, appointed under n Joint Reaction of tho General Assembly, was cm. powered to inquire aud report any organised or ayateoiatio combinations in the 8rd Elec tion ?)i?trio.t, designed to deter voters aud prevent a fair expression of tho ohoioo of th? people at the late General Election, ns also to ferret out, & for a? possible, the cause.of the wur4?r^ j?w^ing tho same*. lir the di* eWft? vf$itt* duties, the Committee, after & Bc^nttof three and and a half months, havo tick ?abors in {ha twnoffe?' pf ?lium. JA jud ?tam lija ii AI ? i>f''friw<. m mtf J BWS Newberry timi AbbovUlo, and arrived, os wo loara, at Anderson 0? H. !??t wc?k. Wo oro reliably informed, that so far no evidence has beon furnished tho Committoe of any systom of fraud or intimidation. Tho whole affair is a (arco and will result in nothing but oxponeo to tho State. Tho resolution allows to each, member of the Committeo the pay and ?u?lo age of uiombors of tho Goncral A^otnbly, and '.'athorizes the employ mem? of a olerk, steno grapher and Attorney, if thought necessary, i The Ooiuiu/ttoo bogan its session on tho 4 th : Q? Way last, and from their progress thus far, ' wo eonoludo it will hardly adjourn before tho mooting of tho Legislature. In this view, it becomes a matter of serious expenso. Apart from the pay of tho members and officers, we aro reliably informed, that tho dusky sons of Africa, flock to its place of meeting to soo tho show, and narrate that "Massa said if wo didn't voto as wo ploaso, he'd 'schorgo us," and after telling their story, caoh ono receives a cortifioato of tho number of days ho has at tended, and ia told to keep it, as it will bo worth something to him. Thcso peoplo como without summons aud stay as long as they please, waiting their turn, and wo aro inform ed that of tho largo number of witnesses ex amined to this time, the average days atten dance v. ni bo at least fivo. Wo suppose it is tho intention of tho Committeo to introduoo a Bill at tho next session, to pay the expenses of this commission, and to redcom thcso cer tificates of witnesses. If this bo corrcot, tho por diem and mileage of tho commission, tho printing of tho report, and tho pay of the hundreds of witnesses will foot up a pretty smart column against tho tax payers. Will radicalism pay au honest and conscientious man ? --. ? , Hon- Jefferson Davis. Tho "Now Orleans Pioayuno" announces that a letter has been recently received from Mr. DAVIS, stating that his health is by no means so precarious as has been lately rcpro sonted. Every soldier and friend of tho hst cause will read thcso tidings with foolings pleasure. IIo was one of us in the great ef fort to preserve pure and unsulliod tho repub lican institutions bequeathed to us by our an cestors, and differed only in that his firmness, integrity and ability exalted bim to tho head and front in tho great contest. Thia fact has made him au object of persecution to a pusil lanimous foo, but in his dL^raco (?) and suf fering he sees his highest honor and reward, tho consciousness that his people still love and respect him. In history tho brightness of his greatness will dim tho adventitious lustro of those who rovile and persecute him. Tho Rural Carolinian. Messrs. Walker, Evans & Cogswell havo sont us a oircular, in which they propose to publish an illustrated Magazine, under tho above title, devoted to tho farm, tfio garden and tho household. This magazine will bc thc official organ of tho South Carolina State Agrioultural and Mechanical Society, and will contain sixty-four largo pages of roading matter. Tho first number will bc issued about the 1st of October and tho publishers design distributing 10,000 copies gratuitously to per sons Bonding in their names aud address. TerniB, 82 per year, in advance. Address, Walker, Evans & Cogswell, Charleston S. C The Comet. After tho oolipsc comes tho comet with i'? bright nuolcus and long-spreading tail.

This comet is said to bo man; thousand times larger than tho earth. It i a solid mass of fire, with a tail of tho sam clement that would reac i around the ear tl more than a hundred times. As a collisioi with this mundano sphoro is not ardently dc sirod by its inhabitants, it is hoped that som amioablo arrangements may ensue by wilie' oither tho earth or tho comot will alter it presont oourso, and in the language of an i lustrious individual, "Lui na have peaoo."

That fivo of these wero from South Carolina, and he gave their names as follows : Major Moblcy, ofTairficld, about 82 years of age, fair complexion, 6 feet 8 inches or 0 feet high. Lieut. Simmons, of Fairfield, Capt. Zeiglcr and Lieutenant Eastorling, of Orangoburg, and Lieutenant R. W. Boyd, of York. Ho begged that thcso names should bc published, that their friends might learn of their whereabouts and that they were alive. Tho " Marion Crescent" has been enlarged and fitted out in a now dress. Its energetic Proprietor says : "If my business shall pros per hereafter as it has done in the past year, I proposo to purol^nsc a Power Press and en large tho 'Crescent' again."

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN EDQE?ILD.-Th< "Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel" publishei th- allowing account of a torriblo affair whiol occurred in Edgcfiold last Thursday. A dis patch from Augusta states that George Addi son, jr., and James Addison surrenders tliomsclves to the authorities on Friday. J D. Cresswell, who is ohorged with crimina intercourse with tho sister of tho Addisoue is represented at last accounts to bo dangoi ously but not mortally wounded. Tho follow ing is tho account : "As our readers aro all aware of tho natur of the affair out of which tho difficulty bet^oe tho Addison family and Mr. D. Creswell nrosi wo will not allude to it in this connootioi but morely give tho history of tho recont trn.j ody as given to us by our informant. O last Wednesday after-noon Mr. B. Crosswc and an older brothor, Mr. diarios Orosswol loft this oity in a buggy to return to tho bornes, near 96, South Carolina. Late c tho evening of that day two brothers re$ch< Edgofiold Court Houso and ?topped for t\ night at tho vlllngo tavern. On yeeterde morning, between 8 and 9 o'clock, tho Cres wolla Ugaln started on thoir journoy, takir in tho buggy with them a rix leon ?booti i Winchester rifilo, aa If anticipating troubl They had not been gone long when some .>. came into the town and said tho two mon he been murdered.

D. Cresswell was seriously if not fatally wounded. Ooo hand was pierced by two balls ; tho other hand hy one ; tho chin Was also ?truck ; ono ball entered tho sido, another tho stomach. Tho latter is reported to have said tbat two men eonocalcd by the wayside had fited simultaneously as they saw tho buggy -afterword making their osoapo. Ho identified ono of tho party os George Ad dison, Jr., a brother of the young lady of the affair. The wounded Cresswell is now an inmnto of a private houso in Edgofield. No arrests havo yet hoon made. Acquitted. Wo learn from tho " Columbia Phcouix " that at tho recent term of Court for Lexing ton County, Dr. F. S. Lowio WOB tried for tho killing of J. Elliott Drufts, and found not guilty. Tho cause of the homioido was crim iuul iutorcourtio of tho deceased with tho pris, oner's wifo. Dr. Lewie is a Democratic mem ber of tho South Carolina Legislature. Both parties wero men of standing and popularity. WASHINGTON, August 12.-The Cubans have official adviocs to thc 2d. The leaders stato that wero belligerent rights aceorded thom by the United States such would bo tho effect in Cuba as to enable thom to secure possession of tho entire islaud, oxcopt Havana, within thirty days. The Cubans throughout tho island aro in sympathy with tho C?spedes government, and tho disaffection of the Span ish troops would leavo tho Spanish Govern ment without on army. Tt is reported that a serious difficulty exists in thc volunteer organization. Four hundred troops from St. Jago do Cuba were cupturcd by Jordan. A force sent by Valma da to relieve them, wero defeated with a loss of ono half their force. It is reported that the Spauiards have been driven from tho Ciuco Villas district with heavy 1O?>S. Tho Cubans aro now in posses sion of thc entire district. Jordan bas ac complished Iiis purpose everywhere-his troops, inspirited by successes, aro in oxocl lent spirits. A curgo of slaves recently landed at Cinco Villas, wcro captured and liberated. Quesada's forces uro closing on their oppo nents, who have no troops outside of Nuevitort jxeept thoso confined lu Puerto Principe. RICHMOND, August 14.-It is stated on *ood authority that General Cauby will, with n ten days, issue his clootion proc-lnmatk n jonvening the Legislature, applying tho iron clad oath to tho members, and, whero a mem. ?cr elect cannot take tho oath, giving his icat to tho candidato who recoivod tho next nighest vote. This nows produocs different iccliugs among different parties. Tho Well's Republicans, who form nino tenths of what ?vas tho Republican party, rejoico over it. Tho Domocrats aro confident that thc effeot is to givo tho Stato to thc Demooraoy in 18 72, and permanently thereafter; and the Walker Republicans, who eleoted their ticket on thc idea among tho whites that there was to bc no more disfranchisement and test oath, uro very sick. NF.W YORK, August 14.-Tho Times says "Tho question of enforcing tho test oath in tho caso of tho m ambers elect of tho Virgi nia Legislature hus been docided affirmatively by tho Attorncy-Goncral, and it will bc accor dingly enforoed by General Cauby." MR PENDLETON'S NOMINATION.-Our telegraphic despatches tell of the nomination of George IL Pondlcton, by thc Executive Commitce of tho Dnmooratic party, as Gover nor of Ohio, vice General Rosenoranz, declin ed. When a party thus puts forward ono of | its best representatives, the sign is a good ono. Mr. Pendleton has boen colled "tho rising star of tho West." Ho is a man of loftly character and eminent abilities, com bines in himself many of the elomonts that go to form a high ordor of statesmanship. A De mocrat by conviction, his mind is yet broad enough to take in tho interest of tho whola oountry. In tho last Presidential canvass, no man mado abler speeches, and his firm ut* toranocs, not wanting in a beautiful poetic viow, woro reooived by thousands with delight and admiration. Ohio will do well to oioot him to tho office of Govornor.-Phoenix. HORSES IN TiiK UITKD STATES.-Tho in crcaso in tho number of horses in tho United States si nco 1860, is estimated ut 1,700,000, or 25 per oont. Tho whole number is now said to bo 8,000,000, valued at ?2,660,000, ?00, or something moro than tho wholo na tional debt. Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Now York, Pcnsylvonia, Missouri, K.?'iituoky and Texas aro tho great borao rnising Stotos, in tho ordor io which they oro givon.
