REVENUE SALE. Deputy Collector Galbraith sold, on Tuesday last, a horse and wagon and 28 gallons whisky, forfeited to the government by Albertis Propes The horse and wagon sold low, and the whisky brought 90 cents per gallon. DEATH OF tVIH. A. MOORE, ESQ. We regret to learn of the death of Wm. A. Moore, Esq., of Lancaster, which occurred on Saturday last, from an attack of cramp colic. Mr. Moore was a native of this county, but for many years has beeu a resident of Lancaster, where, in the pursuit of his profession?that of the law?he enjoyed a successful and lucrative practice. CHARLOTTE RACES. Mr. T. M. Whitaker, the well-known racehorse fancier and traiuer of this place, is making the necessary preparations to go over to Charlotte, in a few days, with several horses to train for the approaching races there. He will also have the training of a number of blooded animals owned by citizens of Mecklenburg. NEW BUILDINGS. Messrs. Latimer & Hemphill's new store is rapidly approaching completion?the rooms on the first floor being now finished, and the grocery departmentalready occupied by them. As will he seen by their announcement, their dry goods store will be filled by an entirely new stock in a few days. The carpenter's work on Mr. J. F. Wallace's residence is about completed. When k finished, Mr. Wallace will have a handsome ? residence. PERSONAL MENTION. We were pleased to receive a call, last Thursday, from J. Witherspoon Ervin, Esq., whose name is familiar to many of our readers as a pleasing, entertaining and instructive writer. Mr. Ervin has been residing in Morganton, N. C., for the past five years, but has returned to Manning, iu this State, where until next June, be will be engaged in teaching. Mr. J. C. Squier, travelicg agent of the Columbia Register, called to see us last Wednesday evening. The Register is a thor oughly consistent Democratic sheet, and deI serves?as we are pleased to learn it receives?a liberal support. IMPORTANT TO DISTILLERS. The attitude of the Internal Revenue Department towards illicit distillers in South Carolina who plead guilty and enter into bonds to abstain in the future from violating the revenue laws, is fully set forth in extracts to be found in our columns. As will be seen, amnesty is granted to all who comply with the conditions imposed by the Government, except those who have been guilty of shooting revenue officers in the discharge of their duties. Those in York county, who desire to avail themselves of the amnesty offered by the Government, are required to file the requisite bonds with U. S. Commissioner Latimer, in Yorkville, within the next fifteen days. LIST OF JURORS.

The report of the hoard of examiners of ap plicant8 for the cadetship from this Congressional district was promulgated by Hon. J. H. Evins last Friday?the board having transmitted to him their decision and withholding it from the public. H. C. Davis, jr., of Fairfield, received the appointment, and J. Stanyarne Wilson, of Yorkville, alternate. This gives Mr. Wilson the opportunity, should he desire it, to enter a competitive examina* tion with Mr. Davis at West Poiut. There were twenty-two applicants for the appoint- ; ment, as follows: Thomas E. Bailey, S. L. Garner, H.S. McLure, Union; B. D. Springs, J. S. Wilson, B. M. Fewell, L. L. Keesler, I). E.

The County Board of Equalization are holding their sessions in the Auditor's office, k The eclipse of the moon could not be seeu W at this place last Monday evening on account r of the clouds which obscured it from view. During the moonlight uights of last week, the Yorkville Silver Helicon Band discoursed splendid music on the streets. Nothing like fame. The Hampton collar is the latest thing out. Of course every Democratic voter will have a box. The picnic at Centre Church, near Clover station, on the C. and L. Railroad, last Friday, was the largest of the season. A considerable number of Chester people attended. Our regular report of rain on Sunday and Monday evenings comes in again. Spleudid showers fell on each of those days of the present week. The foundations of Mr. O'Leary's new building have been completed and the work of laying the brick walls has now commenced in earnest. The Jenkins Rifles have adopted white belts and plumes as a part of their uniform. ?? : 1 i?. \r?? me D811S ana piumes were reeciveu mot iuuuday evening, and will be worn by the members on their next public drill. MERE-MENTION. A bill allowing womeu to vote in school meetings has passed both houses of the New Hampshire Legislature.* The Atlantic Oil Works of Brooklyn, were burnt on Saturday morning. Loss $50,000. A New Orleans dispatch of the 10th says the yellow fever continues to spread, but it is of a mild type. On the 10th, there were 35 new cases and 8 deaths. The story goes that Josephus Woodruff is employed on the reportorial staff of the Philadelphia Ledger. At Omaha on the 8th, the thermometer ranged at over 100? in the shade, and four cases of sunstroke occurred. There is great excitement in Yuma, Arizona, over a threatened raid by Indians who are gathering in the vicinity of that town. Reports from the crop in all the cotton growing States complain of unfavorable seasons, and in some localities the presence of the caterpillar. The present condition of the crop is barely as good as last year. During a political discussion at Apperson's Levee, Arkansas, on Saturday, pistols were introduced. A negro was killed, and several other persons wounded. Bud Evans and William Fretwell had "a little difficulty" at Austin, Miss., the other day, which was permanently and satisfactorily arranged by each man killing the other. The Democratic State ticket in Alabama received about 80,000 votes in the election on Monday last. There was no opposition. The Legislature is almost unanimously Democratic. The Government - 1' - ???.1? AA flnnio l/vw tKo \fnvinnn Hntlfi r U11UVVS UUljr %j\j icuio 1U1 uiu XIvv..M.| and it is now discounted 10 per cent, everywhere. The prospect for the Egyptian cotton crop is excellent. It is now estimated that the crop will yield 112,000,000 pounds. President Hayes will visit St. Paul, Minn., about the first of next month. He will visit his home at Fremont, Ohio, about the last of this month, to attend the wedding of his son, Webb Hayes. Nearly 1,000 cars of wheat, aggregating 400,000 bushels, were received at Toledo, Ohio, last Monday, being the largest amount received there in the same length of time. A telegram received in Washington last Friday from the Internal Revenue Commissioner at Knoxville, Tenn., reports that, iu an effort to seize the illicit still of Hatsel Amarine, some parties in ambush fired upon the officials, and John Cooper, son of Collector Cooper, was fatally wounded. A HEW PARTV^ORGANIZATIOX. A Raleigh dispatch of last Friday, gives the following information concerning the progress of a new political party which seems to be springing up in North Carolina: The Nationals are making rapid strides towards organizing for the purpose of contesting for members of Congress in the November election. They have perfected arrangements and will begin issuiug a weekly paper in Raleigh on Wednesday next called the National. It is claimed that there are 36,000 white men in this State who are in favor of the principles of the National party, who will organize and ally themselves with it. Robbert A. Jenkins, of Greenville county, heretofore a leading Democrat, has declared himself a candididate for Congress in this district upon the National platform. Mr. Jenkins is a man of considerably more than ordinary ability, and will doubtless make an effective canvass of the district. It is more than probable that the laboring men, the Nationals and the Republicans, will unite upon Josiah Turner, of Orange county, as their candidate for Congress in the Raleigh district. Turner was elected on Thursday last to the Legislature from Orange county. He was an Independent candidate, and received the full Republican vote and 900 Democratic votes. This vote alone, with the full Republican vote of the district, will insure his election. Turner has already declared himself a candidate for Coogress. He will visit Raleigh in a few days, and will be tendered a reception by the workingmen without regard to color or party. Besides the Congressional candidates spoken of above, C. L. Cobb is announced as the National candidate for Congress from the First district, and W. H. Crawford, of Salisbury in the Seventh district. It is understood that the "National" party is about the same as that advocated by Governor Allen, of Ohio, three or four years ago. Allen is a staunch Democrat, but he advocated greenbacks as a circulating medium, and more of them. This is the principal feature in the policy of the North Carolina "Nationals." Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. JOTTINGS FROM CLOVER. Clover, S. C., August 12, 1878. A drought often weeks had reduced everything?of both vegetable and animal life? to low spirits in this section ; but the last two weeks have given us good seasons, and brought out the wrinkles from cotton leaves, corn blades and farmers' faces. Men who, two weeks ago, would have given up all claim to their cotton crops to any one who would assume their "guano bill" as they called it, have a different uotiou now, aud are calculating ou a little extra. Cotton has revived wonderfully, but the rains came too late for early corn. All seem to be more cheerful, and notwithstanding that they cannot make a full crop, the country seems to be prospering. The steam saw mill of Jackson & Co., one mile east of Clover, cuts from five to six thousand feet of lumber per day, and the amount taken from their mill is evideuce of All the lnmher thev have llllffl K> VCIUCH W ii.il -?... J sawed this seasou is for local improvement, except one bill which was shipped to Yorkville. The Sabbath school picnic last Friday at Centre, one mile south of Clover, was a complete success. It was thought by some that there were three thousand people present; but we will put the number at twenty-five hundred. Vocal music, accompanied with the organ, constituted the introductory exercises, and we would add just here that the music throughout the day was such as it is seldom our privilege to hear. The exercises proper were opened with prayer by Rev. Mr. Carpenter. Speeches on the occasion, interesting and appropriate, were delivered by Capt. W. T. R. Bell, of King's Mountaiu, Mr. John McNeel, of Bethesda, ami Mr. S. L. Wilson, of Centre. In regard to the dinner, we would simply state that there was plenty, and all went away perfectly satisfied with their visit ! to Centre. Good order was observed through-! r out the day. i Saturday, the day following the picnic, was j made lively here by our colored friends ; the j occasion being another excursion train from ' -y ? Chester to Dallas. Vox. j Endorsed by the Faculty. The reputation i 1 of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup has been solely 1 t achieved on account of its merit.
