Tlie attendance was unusually large, aud the annual meeting of 1880 lias oeen, it is said Uy many, the most delightful since the organization of the Association in 1875. Ex-Governor U. F.

Twenty-seven new members were enrolled yes ??rl?w v*A ? i-- rutr ? :.. r ^ .1 around (he city, the cotton factories, various other manufacturing institutions, and lliectllege commencements were, visited by the Association iu a body. The inspection of the cotton mills was a new and interesting pleasure to many from the low-country. At the session of yesterday morning Col. W. J. Houston, of the Atlanta and Charlotte Air Line Hnilroad, was introduced, lie spoke of the great road he represented and its etTorts to improve and develop the country. The owners arc Eastern men of large wealth who have placed the road under the management of Southern gentlemen, with the command, "Go forward and develop the country."' He stated that the road has immigration schemes on foot which are working well, and in time will show good results by bringing into the country colonics of the best classes of laboring people in Europe. lie closed by tendering to tlie l'rcss Association (be free use of his road, and in nddition tendered each member a through return trip to Cincinnati.

We have received a letter from fairfield County warning us against the teachings of a prowling Ureenbacker who, the writer says, : believed to be a hireling of the Radical party, and sent out into the country settlements of the upper Counties of the State ?particularly those counties in which the vote between the Democratic and Republican party is PffRT close?to divide the democratic vote uponvM? atstract idea of a greenback currency. The writer says that McLean first finds out who are the soreheads, very doubtful and oflicc-sceking demo crats of a county and makes them his tools and associates. This certainly agress with his course here. In that County, (Fairfield) the writer says, McLean organized a greenback club, in which there are a number of women and children, seven white men who supported the lladi: cal party in its most corrupt time, with three ex-radical office holders. We notice one peculiar feature in McLean's mission through the State: lie never holds public meetings or makes public speeches at any place where he would be likely to have the merits, aims and objects of his one-idea doctrine discussed. In every County can be found grumbling, oreheaded, on the fence and always-dissatisfied individuals, ever ready to follow any new and captivating political dogma thut may come along. Such men are mainly governed by the hope of * ? ? - ?? % W..t * * general good. In this State the move is intended to destroy the democratic majority for President and we warn all good democrats to keep out of such an infamous plot. The Weather and Crops. The farmers generally, in this County, are feeling quite anxious about their crops. The extremely dry, cold and windy weather the past three weeks has no doubt materially injured the cdton. Most of it, however, is clean of grass, and rain now would enable it to partially recover About two weeks ago good rains fell in par ti.nl spots North-east anil East from here, but the larger part of the county is wanting rain badly. Corn is Buffering much for want of rain and from the worm. We saw a stalk on Monday that had two worms eating the silk encased in the green shuck, and upon cutting the stalk open four worms were found boring their way in every direction and completely eating out the trinide. In many fields one-third of the corn is iii this condition and worse. Farmers arc puzzled to know what to do to arrest the ravages of this pest. Gardens arc almost entirely mine I. IJcnns, Cucumbers, Squashes and Tomatoes arc dying for want of rain. Cabbages may come out if it rains in a few days. Housekeepers have a hard lime to get up a dinner. Pastures of all kinds are burning up. Those under fence are doing best. A correspondent at /unitIt's Ford writes, under date of liOtli : Crops here arc promising where they have been well worked, and if a farmer is in the grass now you may set him down as a lazy man, for I never saw a more favorable year for farmers to keep their crops clean nnd in good condition.? We would like to have a good rain now to wet the ground thoroughly. We have had gentle rains ever since crops were planted. Not a single one has fallen to wash the land since planting began. a. ncrndon, a company of young Ladies and gentlemen have been rehoarslng for some time a very interesting Drama in three Acts, entitled "Caste,'' to be played in this town for the most laudable purpose of raising money to build a monument over the grave of the noble soldier and talented citizen, Gen. Gadberry. Some time ago we called attention to the disgracefully neglected grave of Gen. Gadberry, but none could be found willing to make a move toward improving its appearance, and Mrs. Ilerndon and all engaged in it with Iter, deserves the most liberal encouragement of the people throughout the County for their noble ctl'ort to do justice to one of of L'niou's bravest s ins.

Since the opening of the University of Vanderbilt this makes the third instance where young men from South Carolina have carried otf the honors of the institution. W'e understand that George has selected the busy and progressive city of Atlanta in which to locate and practice the profession of law, and we are confident his bright talents and pure miral character will soon command for him a front place among the many notable men of the "Gate City" bar.

Every Home Can Have a Well. There is now no excuse for not having a well 8' to every house in town. Messrs. Foster & Spears have now at work (he most ingenious and effec" T tive machine for boring wells that is manufactured, and they can^bore a well, to any depth, quicker, cheaper and with less dirt and inconvenience than by any other machine or plan.? It defies rock, by having a steel drill that works its way through the hardest granite in incredi- ei bte quiok time. In boring a well in rear of si Foster & Wilkins' Store it struck hard roqk at in 30 feet below the surface and cut four feet ia gi less than n day, with one drill, but with two la drills?one to bore while the other is being VJ sharpened?it will bore more than twice as far in the same time. The drill cuts a well 10 inches iti diameter, and wells of that size, borod ol over a year ago in this town, have never failed fe to give a supply of water. st Severe Illness of the County Treasurer. ^ Injustice to the County Treasurer we state that on Tuesday of last week he was taken dau- j gcrously ill and on Friday last was confined to ^ his bed, unable to meet the holders of school cluiins at Union on that day as he adver.ised to do. lie came to town last Tuesday, but it was ' c< very apparent that he was too weak to attend to much business, and, from the nature of his dis- ^ ease, we think he risked much in travelling and ... .... .. * . .. d attempting to ao any uusiness at an una ooi weather. If his effort on Tuesday does not cause a return of the disease, he expects to be well enough to attend to the duties of his office ^ in a few days. Sickness is always taken as a valid excuse for absence from duty, and those ^ who know the severity of the Treasurer's sickness will readily excuse him. I . ' The Green Front Store. ^ One of the cleverest men in the State is Capt. s Moultrie Gibbcs, ami we arc truly pleased to n find that lie has concluded to cast his lot among ? us. lie can be found at the New Green Front t Store, just aboveS. W. Porter's Ltry Goods house f and has the choicest lot of goods, to suit all tastes n and pockets, that ever was seen in Union. We li have known Capt. Gibbcs for lo, these many I years, and can testify to his being a pure gen- I tleman, and a good soldier during our "little a unpleasantness." He was the gallant Captain t of the Saluda Guards, as good and true ? a company of men as any in the confederacy. Give him a call, I.adics ; his store is kept in j the neatest order and we know you will find i him a most pleasant and obliging gentleman. | - < For the Times. Joncsville Items. Editor Timks :?A correspondent of your paper in the last issue tells us tlint the Teachers Convention will be held at Jonesville this sumnier and asks whether the good people of the place would entertain the members. In the opinion of soine of our citizens it was thought that Rock Church was the place selected and not Jonesville. To ensure (if Jonesville is the place for the Convention to be held) quarters and entertainment for all, the Executive Committee, if there is such, should address a circular to our leading citizens to see if accommodations could be procured and that would be satisfactory to the community at large.

Space will not permit me to dwell upon theceremonies of consigning the souls unjeweled caskets to their native earth. In spite of reason they are fraught with bitterest anguish to all mourners, eveu to those who feel ussurcd that "lil'cs true receptacle" descends not to the dark earth. Last Sunday a goodly number attended the Raptist Church, not only to hear the preaching but the "Organ" had its attraction and was listened to with eager attention. The sermon was remarkably fine, and the listeners grew light of heart as they hearkened. Darkly despairing uiinds received a ray of hope ; '.lie sad were comforted, the faint-hearted grew strong, the struggling were touched with peace, the true la- 1 borers tasted of the precious grapes that grew in the vineyard of their Lord. The political question has at last reached us j mm ii is very common to see small knots of people iin l lie l together discussing the coining ? campaign, and we are credibly informed that ? Jonesville is not behind in supplying can lidates v to satisfy the wants of the voters, as there arc " not quite otlices enough?a score or more might '' be instituted (with no perquisites attached) so that every one who wants could be satisfied.

Maekey, presiding f, in the Seventh Circuit at the June term of the ii Circuit Court, for the year 1880. The Grand ^ Jury for the County of Union bey leave to make the following reports : o That they hare duly and deliberately conaid- s ed the several matters brought to their con- 11 deration by his Honor aud herewith recom- J end to the good citizens of this County the j rent propriety aud necessity of giving up the n wless habit of ^ IIUIYINU OKAULY IVEAI'ONR CO.NCKALKD UPON ? II Til KIR TKUSONS. It is apparent to every good citizen and mun n ' sense, that any gentleman would blush and <1 el deply ashamed to be caught parading the * reels on a public occasion, or, for the matter , that, on a private occasion, with a revolver I vinging around his neck like a powder horn, ! r sticking vulgarly and threateningly out of J, is hip pocket, making hi n a picture of a pi4te. Why not blush more deeply and be suioth- i red with shame, when lie carries those iin- " lcuicuts of lawlessness and death concealed into ammunities and associations of a civilized and inoounl community. It is more objectionable lian carrying weapons openly, because equally eiuoralizing, equally barbaric, and more imleusurably dangerous when the warning, "be c ,i.? ,ir>a ;< swung to the public view; ool citizens, men of sense and gentlemen, rould give the surly dog all the needed space, nd old Tiger would most probably turn into lust and ashes without ouce tearing the llcsh or pilliug the blood of a single citizen. Whereas, f people were not put on their guard, the surly iloodydog, most probably would tearand lacerate ' otnc of our best citizens, or our sweetest and aost promising children. The experience of this 1 itatc with two logged Tigers, has most iudispuably demonstrated the last proposition to bo a act, in so far as it relates to ilioiu. Why do i ricn objeet to carrying weapons openly ? It is I iceause tliey feel it to be wrong and unmanly ; 1 lecause their observation shows them that the test, most honored, bravest aud most intelligent acquaintances, condemn it as ridiculous, and i iniiecessarily dangerous to the peace ol the hate and the lives of individuals The carrying of coucealcd weapons, is prima \ 'acic evidence of a mind uncultivated, unmanly, l nalicious, unlawful and irreligious. Let our 1 icople, fur the sake of their own good, the geu:rul cause of hutnaii civilization, and the gene- ; al cause of a refining, elevating Christianity, ;ive up this infamous habit, and let them rely tpon the weapons of brotherly love, reason, usiicc and christian charity, and then the crack )f the pistol will have terrors for none but. the purglars, or their confreres. llut leaving the ground, the high ground, of not al, civilized ami christian manhood, it is jreatly, boundlessly objectionable, on the ground jf dollars and cents. Three-fourths of the expenses of this County, in the Court of General Session, has flowed directly from carrying concealed weapons. Let the good people think )f that, and stirred by the one or the other or jotli causes, bring the resistless power of their :oudemnation, boldly, firmly and constantly expressed, to crush this lamentable evil. In furtherance of these views, we recommend he .Municipital authorities of incorporated :owns in this County to pass ordinances against lie evil, and as a Grand Jury we recommend to iur Representatives to support zealously, any aw against this evil which may be introduced n the Legislature, or introduce it themselves; ind we recommend to the people to urge the dctubers of our Legislature to pursue such a toursc. Si le by side with this great evil, and al* ied to it, runs the still greater evil ol the sale uid unnecessary use of spirituous liquor. The try of the State, the crv of the nation, the ry of I lie civilived world, is, "Cud deliver id from lliid evil,' and yet it grows.
