jtojns and Jatte. ? Mrs. Louisa Ramsdell, of Canandaigua New York, who died recently, possessed an estate valued at $120,000. She leaves two insane children, and her will, jusl offered for probate, explains why the; became insane. In the first place, the will provides for the erection of a mausoleurr to cost $95,000, and then sets aside $18,00( for statutes of herself and husband, and foi the maintenance of the mausoleum. The remainder, if there be any, is to be usee for the support of the insane children. ? S. N. Brooks, of Hyde, England, whose son is under a death sentence at St. Louis for the Preller murder, is now in that city making intercession for his son. His plan of campaign will be to enlist Masonic influence and the influence of prominenl people conscientiously opposed to capita! punishment. The general impression is that Maxwell will undoubtedly hang, as the terrible character of his crime has aroused widespread indignation through out Missouri. Gov. Morehouse has already substantially declared that he would nol interfere. ? The committee of the Northern Presbyterian Church on reunion has prepared its propositions for the settlement 01 ine differences between the Northern and the Southern churches and sent them to the Southern committee. The Northern committee, we are told, is very confident thai a reunion will be accomplished very soon, x We doubt it. There must be a prodigious revolution of opinion in the Northern church before the Southern church can be induced to take any steps as a whole in the direction of reunion. And this revolution cannot be expected. ?There is great excitement in Fredonia Caldwell county, Kentucky, over the conduct of a party of drunken roughs whe attacked and fired into the house of several prominent citizens Thursday night, There was no one hurt, but several narrowly escaped from the bullets. They also broke open Hargan's store and stole a considerable quantity of goods. The men whose houses were visited have been leaders in the crusade against the violators ol the prohibition laws of Fredonia. There is considerable feeling over the matter and efforts are being made to apprehend the guilty parties. ?Congressman Scott, of the ways and means committee, in speaking of the tarifl bill, says: "We are getting up a good bill and I think it will command the supporl and vote of every Democrat on the floor if not a number of Republicans. There are a number of members scheming to prolong discussion on the tariff until the House ii disheartened and then rush through a sub Btitute taking only the tax off sugar and tobacco. I tnink these members will be fooled in their object, for the reason that 1 that. thA bill now being prepared by the ways and means committe'e will be so just and equitable that all fair men will see the necessity for its passage and give it their cordial support." ? A dispatch of Friday from Jackson Michigan, says: About a year ago, Danie O'Day and his son John, were arrested ir Chattanooga, Tenn., on a charge of coun forfeiting. On trial they'were founc guilty and sentenced to fifteen and ter years respectively in the Albany, N. Y. penitentiary. A short time ago two of the witnesses for the prosecution were convict ed on the same charge. They confessed that the O'Days were innocent and thai they had peijured themselves to secure their conviction. O'Day and his son were subsequently released. The father reached home Friday and found his wife dead and his younger son in jail. -?The census committee of the Senate propose to draft a bill under which the next census will be taken that will greatly reduce the amount of labor heretofore ex Eended in this work. It is expected thai y elimination much of the valueless sta tistics which have made the undertaking one of great magnitude, the result of the census can be given to the public within s comparatively short time after it is taken The work of compiling the present census has not yet been completed. Two yol umes of the twenty-two required are un finished. It is expected that they will be out of press just about the time work is started on the next census. There is some talk of having a permanent census bureau and of taking a census every five years. ? The Virginia House of Delegates has unanimously passed a bill allowing a pension of thirty dollars a year to Confederate soldiers from that State who were permanently disabled by wounds received during the late war. It allows the same amount yearly to the widows of Virginia soldiers who lost their li%'es in the Confederate service. To meet the demands of these pensioners the bill proposes to appropriate $75,000 the first year. As the public become accustomed to the benefits bestowed, this sum is likely to be increased from year to year. In order to prevent those who are above want from claiming the benefits under the law as has been done under other appropriations made by the Legislature for the benefit o!" disabled Confederates, the bill limits tte beneficiaries to persons owning one thousand dollars wortn 01 properly or less. ? The notorious leader of the train robbers, Capt. Dick, alias "Brack Carnett," was shot and instantly killed on the 14th, while resisting arrest, by Sheriff Allee, oi Trio county, Texas, near Pearsall. a station of the International and Great Northern Railroad. Carnett was a noted outlaw and a few years ago organized a band ol horse thieves for the purpose of robbing express and mail trains in Texas. For the last two years numerous train robberies, where large amounts of money, and in one instance $3,000 worth of diamond jewelrj was stolen, have been traced to Carnett'j gang, and although the Secret Service o! the railroads and the civil officers of Texas have often been close on their trail, thej have heretofore evaded capture. The authorities say the killing of the leader will result in the captnve or killing of the whole gang. ?A New York dispatch says: The na tional board of fire and marine underwrit ers have investigated the recent cottor fires, and have decided that the fault musi be laid to the planters. The underwriters contend that the sewing of bales is so faultj that large spaces are left which expose the cotton to danger from fires. The under writers invited a committee from the Cotton Exchange to meet them. They noti fled the cotton men of the results of theii investigation, and stated that they woulc shortly issue rules and regulations whicl must be adhered to in baling cotton i Planters and shippers wanted insurance he cotton men agreed fully with th< underwriters, and at the next meeting o the Exchange they will recommend tha cotton not baled according to the forth coming rules shall not be dealt in upon th( Exchange. ? The Charleston Neivs and Courier op portunely says: The present is the mos opportune time that the South has had ir many years to present its claim upon th< attention of settlers. In every Southeri State strenuous efforts are being: made t< attract the emigrants who are leaving th< Northwest in search of more hospitable homes, and it is not improbable that the movement Southward will soon attair considerable proportions. The object o the State and other authorities should be to bring to South Carolina as many of these emigrants as can be induced to come, anc the only inducement that is necessary is t< have the advantages of our soil and cli mate even partially made known. It i gratifying to know that the agricultura department is working so industriously 01 this line, and it deserves all the credit tha can be given to it for its intelligent enter prise. ? A few nights ago a Chicago millionair named Snell was murdered in his owi house, on a frequented street, at an earl; hour. The motive was robbery, it beinj supposed that he kept a large amount a money in his house. The affair create< a great sensation in the city, and the resig nation of the chief of police was required on the ground of laxity in the performanc of his duties, when so atrocious a murde could be committed in a thickly populate* part of the city and escape detection unti after the murderers had gotten away. Oi Saturday a man was arrested in Chieag who assisted at the murder by standinj watch outside while the residence wa being robbed, and he is now behind the prison bars. The police have secured a . full confession from him. It confirms be" yond a doubt the statement that the mur, derer is young William B. Tascott, a son I of Col. J. B. Tascott, a wealthy manufac* iurer. He and Tascott went to the house t together. Tascott went inside leaving his r comrade on thesidewalk. After the mur1 der was committed Tascott hurried out, i grasped his companion by the arm and 1 together they went to Tascott's lodgings r on West Madison street, where they re> mained several hours. Tascott told him I all, and the other was so horrified and so afraid that he would be charged with the > murder itself, that he refrained from giv< ing information to the police. He made r a sworn statement and satisfied the police i that he was telling the truth. The police refused to reveal the name of the prisoner. | ?orbviHe (Stoqttiwt. t YORKVILLE, S. V. A ! WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 22,1888. ? MORE SMOKE THAN FIRE. ' The "Lisbon Farmers' Club," of Laurens county, held a meeting: a few days [ ago, which partook somewhat of the nat, ure of a wake over the collapse of the Till. man movement. While much was said . laudatory of Tillman and his schemes, res' olutions were also adopted denunciatory | of the State government generally, and es, pecially stigmatizing Governor Richard. son as "neither a safe nor reliable officer." f The resolutions appeared quite formidable ' in print, but much of their terror is re[ moved by the Laurens Advertiser, which says: I "It is with much pleasure the Advertiser [ can say, so far as our belief goes, the resolution of the Lisbon Farmers' Club, which ! denounces the present Governor of South : Carolina as 'neither a safe nor reliable offi| cer," expresses the sentiment of an infin; itesimally small number of the citizens of ' Laurens county. We are far from believing any such sentiment exists in the minds i" of the mass of voters of this county." A PLUCKY WOMAN. I The last issue of the Aiken Recorder ; contains the announcement by Mrs. C. E. L R. Drayton, widow* of Col. Drayton, > whose death we recorded last week, that she has assumed the management of that j paper. In her modest announcement to | this effect she says with true womanly . impulse. I With this issue of the Recorder we asi sume the management of this paper. , With God's blessing and kind counsel, we > hope to make the Recorder still a good and . interesting paper. We are more than I grateful for words and acts of kindness, t which friends, from far and near, have 3 spoken and doue. Remember dear friends j that a woman is now trying with God's I help and guidance, to fill the place of fathl er and mother to her young family. Mrs. Drayton furnishes, we believe, the i first instance in this State of a woman as 5 the manager of a political newspaper, but with the brave heart and noble purposes I as enunciated in her announcement, she . will have the hearty "God speed" of the ; State press. i BLAINE'S LETTER IN MAINE. Blaine's recent letter ostensibly decli' ning the Presidential nomination makes " a sore spot in Maine politics. An Augus[ ta letter says: It is understood that Mr. 5 Blaine, while he does not mean to be put ? into the Presidential race, does intend to i return without delay to political life. It is not thought by any of his friends that 5 he desires to return to the House of Rep' resentatives ; if he did, no doubt Mr.Mil. liken, one of his most devoted followers, r would gladly give up in his favor. But it ; is believed that Mr. Blaine prefers the > Senate, and that is not a pleasant prospect ! for Mr. Frye, whose term expires with this ; Congress, and who would like another term, or for Mr. Read, who would like to , be Mr. Frye's successor. Mr. Blaine's i Senatorial aspirations would, in this view, ! cast a certain gloom over Maine politics ; next fall and winter, unless, indeed, Senator Hale, as has been sugested, should re. sign and let Mr. Blaine be appointed to fill ; his term, which runs to 1893. Those who > suggest this say that Mr. Hale was introduced into political life by Mr. Blaine and | that it was through Mr. Blaine's long continued, kind and almost fatherly fostering f care while he was Speaker, that Mr. Hale, i without conspicuous ability of any kind, i obtained a political and social prominence !. which finally landed him in the Senate. : A PRESIDENTIAL VISIT. ! The President having decided to visit [ Jacksonville, Florida, during the progress r of the tropical fruit exposition, arranged j to leave Washington at 12 M. yesterday, f The party will travel on a special train of " one car and and a baggage car. The party ' will consist of the President and Mrs. I Cleveland, Secretary and Mrs. Whitney, ? and Colonel and Mrs. Lament. In conuiHorotinn nf the wishes of the President . there will be no committee or any one else on this train. They will make no stop 1 until they reach Savannah at 7..'10 this ^ morning. They will devote an hour to I driving about that city, and will then pro; ceed to Jacksonville, arriving there at 1.30. They will visit the Exposition, and hold a - reception in the evening. At 10 o'clock " to-morrow they will start for St. Augus| tine, and will leave there for home on x Friday morning. f Great enthusiasm is manifested through. out Florida in view of the anticipated vis it, and several thousand dollars have been ? raised in Jacksonville to decorate the city and entertain the distinguished guests, j Eight triumphal arches will be erected across the sheets, and various committees - are at work making elaborate preparations t for a day which will be one of the most 1 noteworthy in the history of the State. 3 The carriage of Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland j will be a bower of fragrant orange blosj I soms. 3 31 CONGRESS. i j The proceedings of Congress during the f| past week are devoid of public interest. J j In the Senate, on Monday, Mr. Hoar ofI j fered a resolution, which was agreed to, 5 j that on to-day tne mrewen uuuress uj - j Washington be read tp the Senate by the s I presiding officer at the conclusion of the 1 ! morning business. J i In the House, on the call of States, _ i among the bills introduced was one for the ! apportionment, on the basis of illiteracy, oi q | $05,000,000 for educational purposes. Also, i the following: A resolution requesting 7 the committe on ways and means to reporl ? back a bill repealing internal revenue j taxes; directing the committee on educa tion to report back the Blair bill before f March 20; to amend the homestead law e so that only eighty acres can be entered r instead of 100, and to permit only Ameri \ I can citizens to enter homesteads. Join! resolution proposing a constitutional 0 amendment extending the Presidentia g term to eight years, s The speaker laid before the House i voluminous report from the secretary of c war in response to the Boutelle resolution o calling on him for a history of the flags F captured in the war of the rebellion. The ' report quotes the resolution in full, and ^ then traces the history of the disposition of the captured flags. Accompanying the v report are a number of exhibits heretofore ^ published, including lists of recaptured c Union flags delivered by the war department to State governors and others; of Confederate flags delivered to certain par- t 1 ties on application ; the letter of the Adju- \ tant General suggesting the return of the c flags with the President's approval; the c President's revocation and a descriptive ] list of the flags remaining in the depart- t ment as they can be identified. The sec- i rotarv states that none of the flags have f gone out of the war department during ' the present administration, but that some r were returned to the captors under the ad- s ministration of Secretary Stanton. The ^ law of 1811, the secretary says, applies to $ the return of flags captured from foreign ^ countries, and there is nothing to author- e ize the return of the flags captured in the t United States. ? [ PENSION REGULATIONS. j The Columbia correspondence of the t News and Courier of last Saturday con- c tains the following which is of importance c to all applicants for pensions under the recent Act of the State Legislature: c The Comptroller-General has sent to the 5 clerks of Courts in this State apriuted form, r , which was prepared by the board, and is r ' to be filled out by all applicants for pen- ^ sions. This action became necessary, as 0 there were such a large number of appli- j cations being filed, and there were grave a doubts as to whether the law was being <; properly complied with, and whether t many of the applicants were entitled to G pensions. This document, which was sent t out to-day, requires very minute answers t to everything which relates to the condi- r tion of the applicant. a The first question is "Are you married?" f Then, "Do you own real estate?" "De- s scribe1 your real property." The number G of acres or lots and their value, and the \ number of houses and their value are 'then put down with their location. The next question is: "Does your real estate yield'you any income and what I amount?" "In what does it consist?" c The amount of money, cotton, corn and t all other products must then be put down. 1 "bn vnn own anv Dersonal property ?" is \ ; the next question, and there is room for t the number and value of almost every ] animal and article of personal property, c from a goat to a steamship. "What in- & ' come does your personal property yield i you?" "Do you receive a salary?" 1 "What amount?" "Do you receive any ( wages?" "What amount?" "Do you e receive an income or fees from any pro- ? 1 fession, office or occupation of any kind, j 1 which, added to the gross income of your f farm or rents which you may receive, 1 will yield altogether the gross amount of f . $250 per annum ?" t These answers are sworn to by the ap- t 1 plicant, and if he has a wife she has to go t through the same form and swear to it, and > th. ntwo outsiders who know thenppli- i cant must swear that they believe the re- i , turn of property and the schedule of in- c | come made by the applicant to be true. t i In addition to the above, the following 2 circular has also been sent out by the 8 Comptroller-General: 1 1 To Auditors, Physicians and Clerks : In e filling up blank certificates you will please "Q , give in full the reasons which govern you ? , in making certificates. The auditor will please select, himself, the witnesses who make the affidavit to the schedule of prop- [ 1 erty, and not leave this selection to appli- c cant. c The physicians will give in full the na- s ture of wound and extent of disability thereby caused. { i Clerks can give reason for signing certi- ( fieate on separate sheet. f A FEARFUL CYCLONE. i At 4.45 P. M., last Sunday, a cyclone t struck the town of Mt. Vernon, Illinois, t sweeping around from the north-west in a c semi-circle, and leveling half the town. ^ Twenty-two persons are known to be t killed, and in the long list of wounded, at t least twenty are fatally injured. The a storm swept with fearful fury, and fire im- ? mediately broke out all over the city amid 1 the ruins, spreading rapidly, owing to the j damage done to the fire engines by the wind. A dispatch of Sunday night, des- f bribing the situation says: r The sky has cleared and no clouds give ? any intimation of the disastrous storm of ? r, kniii.0 Dim Tf ic orrnu'incr pnlrfpr and t many homeless people will suffer if the s weather becomes severe, lteports are J coming in from the country, and the storm fc seems to have swept everything for miles. ? Incalculable loss of life and great suffering 1 will follow unless outside assistance is giv- .J en Mayor G. II Harnell, who will give it 1 to the proper committee. A meeting of ? business men was held and committees ap- * pointed to care for the dead and wounded, N and protect property as much as possible. r Many are walking the streets with no * home to go to. ^ The dead and dying are scattered ? throughout the city. All the doors of the k remaining houses have been thrown open ? to the less fortunate. Three-fourths of the ? business portion of the city is ruined finan- } daily. The public square is in the centre J of the town ; the court house is in the cen- J . tre of the square; the school building is J in the northeast part of the city, and all | the dwellings in that portion of the city 1 are destroyed and the ruins of some are ? ! still burning. In all, five hundred build- k lings are destroyed and many others in- ? jjured. The dead are now being gathered t I at the Supreme Court House, which has c ! been converted into a hospital for the *! I dead and wounded. This building is also ( | damaged, but not seriously. Latest re- * I ports show twenty-nine dead and about J j one hundred injured, some of whom will 1 , die before morning. The storm was pre- I I ceded by hail, but not more than five _J i minutes elapsed until the fearful destroyer J j had swept over the doomed town. Build- ? j ings were wrenched and twisted and then k j dashed into pieces, total wrecks. The j* I storm passed a little south of the City ; | Hall, missed Joe Chance's house, swept j1 ! away the third and fourth stories of the 1 I Mount Vernon mill and leveled nearly f I every house from the mill north, a space i of about oOO yards. The Commercial ho- t I tel lost the third story. The entire west ^ side of the space was wrecked. I The south portion of Mount Vernon is 1 1 the newest part of the city and has many : large and fine buildings. The court house ; has not been injured, but it stands alone. All around it is ruin and desolation, and it is now being used as a hospital for the 1 wounded. Many are suffering greatly. " It is now thought that the northern por| tion of the town will escape the fire, which j is confined to the east and south and west sides, and being fought manfully. i j A pathetic incident of the disaster is the | fact that the operator at Mount Vernon, of j the Louisville and Nashville wire, whose name is Yearwood, has an uncle, aunt and ' ' ! cousin dead in the ruins, and the poor fel- ] : ' ; low, with heart bursting with grief, is sit- ] s ! ting manfully at his post of duty. Four j > i men in the Evans bank were imprisoned j i in the ruins of the building and burned to | j death. Their cries of pain and distress j | ! were agonizing in the extreme, hut noth- I ! | ing could reach them. Their names could ! fj not be obtained. j , 1 LATER. ,p j A dispatch of Monday says the cyclone j i: destroyed nearly three hundred residences , ; I and places of business, and unhoused i 1 twelve to fifteen hundred people. In the j i | fall of walls, many persons were buried in ' ! : the debris, and 35 were killed, while twice J ' ! as many more were injured, eight or ten i I ! so seriously that their recovery is despair- ! . ed of. i J Preceding the destructive winds was ai I heavy fall of rain for half an hour, which ! drove all inhabitants to shelter. This was ' 1 followed by a slight hail storm, accompanied with lightning, and then the furious i blow, which formed into a funnel-shaped yclone, struck the southwestern portioi if the city, unroofing everything in it >ath. A strange thing was that three minute: .fter the cyclone, the sun was shinin< (rightly on the scene of desolation. The cyclone struck New Haven, Ky. vhere it blew down the Bardstown anc xreen River turnpike bridge, the origina ost of which was over $77,000. THE BLAIR EDUCATIONAL BILL. On Wednesday the Blair educationa (ill passed the United States Senate by j ote of 39 yeas to 27 nays. The South Car ilina Senators are divided in their view f the measure, Hampton voting for it anc Sutler against it. At this stage of th< (ill a brief review of its provisions wil >e of interest. It appropriates annually or eight years the following sums to b( 'expended to secure the benefit of com non school education to all children o chool age, living in the United States: First year, $7,000,000; second year $10, 00,000; third year, $15,000,000; 4th year 113,000,000; fifth year, $11,000,000; sixtl 'ear, $9,000,000; seventh year, $7,000,00i ighth year, $5,000,000.

The t< t Charlotte Chronicle of Sunday gives tho fol- a [. lowing particulars of the disaster, failing, how- c y ever, to include tho postofliee, which with a e part of tho mail matter undelivered, was also n X destroyed: I e The fire originated in tho store of Dr. A. F. C e Ilambright, and was caused by a defective v n stove Hue. It was discovered Thursday even- \ x ing a few minutes past f> o'clock, but made such rapid headway that all efforts wero futile to * subdue the llames. After finding that it was " a impossible to extinguish the fire, the work of e carryingout good and piling them in the street h h was commenced by tho people. In less timo n _ almost than it takes to tell it, five stores and tl one dwelling were enveloped in llames. Tho p losses, as near as can be ascertained, are about ? as l'oliows: B. F.

During tho progress of the fire e: lc the greatest excitement prevailed, but not- tl withstanding all this the people worked nobly, C] g and through their efforts the principal part of tho goods wero saved.

' a Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM ROCK HILL. Rock Hill, February 21.?The weather ,st week was spring-like and most of our tizens took advantage of it and planted teir gardens, while the farmers were busy reparing their lands for the coming crop, t is a matter of remark that there is a less uantity of commercial fertilizer being >ld at this place this season than ever efore. I cannot say whether it is because le farmers are using less, or that they are laking their own fertilizers. The game of foot ball has become quite opular in our town. Old and young play ;; and even the ministers take not a hand, ut a foot in it. Mr. V. B.

A disareement occurred between the two pares that led to the riot, which was particmted in by about sixteen persons. All f the parties engaged in the riot made leir escape except Jock Stewart, who was rrested and committed to jail by Trial ustice Whyte for participating in a riot nd carrying concealed weapons. On Thursday morning Trial Justice Vhyte held an inquest over the dead body f John Colton, and the jury.rendered a erdict that "deceased had come to his eath by a gunshot wound in the hands f a party or parties unknown to the jury.

The executive committee of the proibitionists in Greenville county have anounced their determination to make the oming campaign a temperate and rnoderte one. Every effort will of course be iade to bring out the full prohibition vote, ut there will be no general canvass, no ublic fuss and parade. The election omes off on March 1-1, and since the Anti arty.is not likely to enforce a demonstrate campaign, it is probable that the elecion will be wanting in the demoralizing matures that have characterized similar lections in other counties. Plant Corn.?The Baltimore Manufacirers1 Record is bringing its influence to ear on the southern farmer?urging him 3 plant corn, at the same time giving the ssurance of satisfactory returns for the ereal. The advice is sound. In 1887 the South lade a larger corn crop than ever before, 'ortunate as this would be under any cirumstances, it was exceeding fortunate in iew of the extremely short crop in the Vest and the consequent high prices, 'he increase in the South's 1S87 corn crop ver that of 1886 will keep at least 830,000,00 in that section that would otherwise ave gone West. As the planting season sturns it becomes of great importance hat southern farmers should be urged to lant more largely than ever of corn. Bejre another crop is raised the West will be lmost bare of corn, and stocks will be at ich alow point that an unusually heavy rop for the whole country would be greater needed to supply the deficiency of 1887 nd to meet current wants, so that prices rould still continue high, even if the ield be very large. It is very important, therefore, not only )r the good of the South in- general, but specially for the prosperity of the farmers, hat they should again raise a large corn rop. The South ought to do even better a this line than last year, and Southern irmers will make a serious mistake if they o not plant for a large crop of corn and lso of oats.?Augusta Chronicle. I Suit for Damages.?The Charleston ! Sun has a big libel suit to answer, the ! provocation for which is thus explained by the Charleston correspondent of the Colufnbia Register: A colored man named Dudley died a month or so ago in the suburbs, his life being insured for $10,000 in two accident l insurance companies North. The companies sent down an agent to look into the j matter, and the report got out that there f was fraud in the matter. Dudley is certainly dead ; of that there can be no doubt, j Being dead, therefore, there are only two j theories possible in connection with fraud ; either he was murdered, or he died a natI ural death and the body was mutilated in ' 1?? y\ r rl rtrt t Klf , uruer IU SUppUll lll? UlCVl^ Ui uc?m UJ ! accident; because, unless t^e death rei suited from accident, the iisurance poli- i ! cies would not have bejn good. It is j claimed that the man died fr jm the effects I of a fall down the stairs in his house. In | publishing the story of the ease, one of the i newspapers, the Sun, was led into comI menting upon the share in the transacj rion of the doctor who it is said attended the dead man, and also to go into some elaborate details as to the family history of the doctor, and other members of the family. This, it is said, will be made the subject of the libel suits. The complaint was formally served on t Mr. McElree, proprietor of the Sun, on Saturday last. A Romantic Marriage.?Dr. Atkinson, a prominent and wealthy druggist of Chester, S. C., was engaged to be married on Thursday, two weeks ago, to Miss Little, an attractive young lady of Gaffney's, S. C. He arrived according to appointment on Wednesday, the day previous to the promised nuptials, and to his surprise he found the promised bride absent and enjoying a protracted buggy ride with an ardent admirer, Mr. MintZj of Gaffney's. She said "that day (Wednes- t day) was his; to-morrow will be Dr. Atkinson's day." She returned alone next morning after a visit to her sister's house. Her prolonged and strange absence and apparent indifference provoked her bethrothed's jealousy and anger, which culminated in his hasty departure home. Soon mutual explanations were made. She said she was ready and true to her promise on that Thursday, but he left in anerer. Love, which lauehsat locksmiths and overleaps all obstacles, culminated in a correspondence and an interview at Black's, where she met by appointment her Chester lover. The interview was protracted into a wedding: ceremony which blended together the lives and bliss of Dr. Atkinson and Miss Florence Little. May < Heaven's blessing attend them. Shakespeare says "All's well that ends well."? Shelby Aurora, 16th. The Potency of Advertising.?The main road to industrial eminence is Daved by the type setter, and rolled smooth by the printer's press. The manufacturer's business thrives through nourishment. The successful business men are those who recognize this necessity, and place their t names in journals and keep them there i year after year. The men who fail and M sink into oblivion belong to that mistaken M class who either advertise spasmodically H or not at all. The manufacturing area is is so large, competition so extended, so ' crushing and so relentless, that a man who has anything to offer for sale, must keep himself constantly before the public or he is lost. If a dealer wishes to buy in a strange city, he invariably consults the advertising lists of a reliable newspaper from that city and refuses to deal with those who do not figure in the local newspapers, as he does not feel safe without such a guarantee?Lithographer and Printer. The Hoang-Ho Floods.?It is now said that not less than one million people ? were drowned by the terrible floods in the Hoang-Ho River, which overwhelmed several thousands of Chinese villages in October last. The fact that this appalling tragedy has not profoundly moved all i Christendom shows how little we know of the lives, the sufferings and joys of people who are not closely connected with us by the ties of interest and affinity. Still this very calamity shows that widely removed parts of the world are drawing nearer together. This same river thirty; six years ago involved China in a calamii ty of equally terrible proportions, and so " great then was our ignorance of that coun try and its affairs, that five years elapsed - .... before attention was called to the disaster [ in this country and Europe. The river . cut for itself a new bed far north of its previous course, and seven years after the dis, aster European geographers were talking of the lost IIoang-Ho ltiver and wonderr iug what had become of it.
