Such clubs as have not alveady reorganized will do so on that. day. Every club should send a full dele: gation, as the question of the mode and time of nominating County candidates, the election of delegates to the State and Con gressioaal Conventions besides, perhaps, ether important business will be consider. ed.- It. is therefore important that each olub should be fully represented by its best County Bonds. With the June collection of Ntxes the County Commissioners have.retired $2,600 of the County bonds. $5,500 were retired last year, making a total retired to date ol $8.000. The Commissiouers have t( pay par with interest calculated to date o purchase for the bonds. Tkey think they will be able to retire about $5,000 more title fall, after the collection of all the tax es. The amount alread-y retired saves the County annually $560 in interest. This Gaving is carried to the credit of the sink Ing fund annually and used in the pur chase of bonds, still further reducing tV e debt. If the Commissioikers retire $5,000 vdore this fall the total will then be $13,000 which will save to the County %910 annu ally in interest. .This amount will be used in still further reducing the debt.

The , SUrrond Ing oouqtry affords an abundance of all the neusesries of life and livbig Is cbap. Our people are becoming aroused to the great impertanoe of higher ethucation anth dais County alone, we .feeoiOnfident,'*oul I support a college handsomely. Above all things a college, or an institutlon of higher learning is need. ed in Pickens County. All the physioal wants of our -people are abundantly sap. plied by a beelthy olimate and a fettile soil. By a reasonable degree )f industry and economy none need ever want for pienty of food and raiment, but the mental devel.opment of the people, we are sorry to confess, has been sadly negleqted. No section of country can boast of brighter in tellects. We recently heard a teacher asy, who hai had much experience in other sec tions, that he never saw as much bright intellect in any school as he finds in the large and flourishing school he Is now teach ing in this County. As School Commissioner of this County for six years we had an opportunity of stu dying the educational necessities ot our people as well as the capacities of the chil dren for receiving it. We were often struck with the -exceedingly bright children we met in nearly every school in the County and have ever since ardently desired to see the time come when an opportunity might be afforded theni to develop their full men tal capacities. If each township could af Ford an annual tax to support a high or graded school in their midst, where all the children, or a majority of them, could atterd it would be money wisely expended. But while our County is burdened with a heavy bondeld indebtedness such a thing is out of the question. But, the establishment and maintenance of a first class Institution of learning at this place Is perfectly feasible. At. a comparatively small cost our citizens could send their children here to be educa ted. Mauy of them could eit.her rent or purchase a house in towa or the vicinage and send their children, with some grown member of the family to keep house and look over them, angl furnish all their pro, visions from their own farms3; which would scarcely ever be missed and would not re quire a dollar of outlay in actual cash. The young men and young ladies educated In the college would retur~n to their homes in the country where, with expanded and cul ivated minds, they would exert an influ ence that, wonbd soon elevate and greatly polish the society around them, anmd orners, who mi hLha ppoed 'or inditferent. to a .rior t eral education oC t heir children, would have their prejudices removed and soon become so imbued with a spirit. of ed ucation that, they would send their own children to the college toe be educated. A college at this place would soon have a ma guea-infhuence throughout the entire Coun n y uIponl all our moral,' mnthlti 'ai'ti- merfal interests. Then let us all put our shioulrs to the wheel and push for the college. Lynched. A negro by the namne of Williams was lynehed in l'airfield County, S. C., week before last for an attempted rape on a white wo man by the name of Mrs. Rains The hinute nttack Mirs. Rains as she was return ing to lie house from the spring with~ a bucket of water, but she resistedl with all her strength until the negro was scared away by tihe noise of some one passing. lie was subsequently arrested, and carried to SWi'unsboro to jail, but at night eight, dis guised men overpowered the jail keeper, took the negro fromn his cell, cnrried him a short distance from the house and hung him to a lhmb until lhe was dead. A cor Srespondent. of thio Neu-a and Courier giving the part iculars of the affair among other Sthings says: "To add to the enormity of his crime, when the assault was committed on Mrs. e Rains she was about, four months advanced in preginanecy. The terrible struggle with -her assaiiant has resulted in a premature birth, and I uundersland this evening that the lady is in a critical condition."
