LETTER FROM CHESTER. * Correspondence of ilte Yorkvlllo Knijuirer. Chester, July 30.?The grand lodge of Good Templars of South Carolina, completed its eighteenth annual session on last Wednesday, in time for the delegates to take the afternoon trains for home. The annual election of officers resulted in the choice of Joel E. Brunson, of Sumter, grand chief templar; Thomas N. Berry, of Chester, grand councillor ; Miss Ida Guess, of Graham's, grand vice templar; i\. t'. xucunee, oi reixer, ^muu su^cnntendent of juvenile temples; W. F. Ithame, of Sumter, grand secretary; Jos. Lindsay, of Chester, grand assistant secretary ; Rev. J. L. Silly, of Lyons, grand chaplain; Dr. G. T. Walker, of Glendale, grand marshal ; Miss Bessie McFaddeD, of Chester, grand deputv marshal; C. F. Wood, of Pelzer, grand messenger; J. T. Freeman, of Chick's Spring, grand guard; J. It. McCollum, of Baton ltouge, graud sentinel. These officers were installed on Wednesday morning. An interesting discussion was held in regard to the next place of meeting. The choice finally fell on Pelzer, which town has by far the largest lodge in the State, its membership now reaching 229. The Northern Good Templars have recently grafted on their order in that part of the world, an assessment insurance feature known as the Good Templars' Life Association. Mr. E. D. Ludwig, of Ohio, a representative of that association, visited the grand lodge while in session here, and presented the claims of the association to the order in this State. A committee was appointed by the Grand Lodge to investi gate the matter thoroughly and take action in the matter, if it was deemed wise by the committee so to do. The banner was presented to Good land lodge for haviDg increased its membership by a greater per cent, than any other lodge since the last grand lodge meeting. Capt. T. B. Henry, of Wadesboro, N. C., and Miss Lila Lucas, of this place, were married at the resideuce of the bride's father, Capt. W. J. Lucas, on last Thursday. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. K. Fant, of Wadesboro. Mr. W. J. Huntley, Capt. Henry's business partner at Wadesboro. also came down with the groom. Mr. John B. Corn well died on the 2oth instant, after a short illness. His remains wero-interred at Woodward church on the following day. Mr. Coruwell was fifty three or four years of age, and was well known throughout the county. He represented Chester in the legislature during 1880 and 1881. Charles Whitus and John W. Wilkes have secured a patent on an improved bed fastener, or bed lock, which is said to be ahead of anything yet invented in that line. A negro was put in jail on last Wednesday for stabbing Robert Hudson, white, at Richburg. The difficulty arose out of n settlement between the two, the negro having been employed by Hudson on his place. Trial Justice Darby performed the marriaged ceremony on the lGtli for William Baswell and Miss Katie Earwood, both of this county. The protracted revival services began here on the 7th instant by the evangelist Rev. Thos. H. Leitch, assisted by F. A. Marshall, the singer, came to a close yesterday morning. Mr. Leitch had full houses from the first, and as the meeting progressed the crowds grew larger anil larger till at the end the Presbyterian church was far too small. The crowd reached its maximum on Sunday night, it having been generally understood that tho meeting would close with that service. Notwithstanding the early hour of the service, eight o'clock, the church was packed long before tho exercises began. The space in the aisles and about and in the pulpit, was filled with chairs and foot benches, while windows, doors and yard, all held large quantities of the great throng. It is doubtful if Chester ever before saw such an eager congregation, and when Mr. Marshall began that most spirited of all spirited hymns, "What a gathering of the faithful that will be," it seemed as though the audience was charged to its finger tips with enthusiasm. Mr. Leitch was bringing the meeting to an end that night, and had begun to make a few closing remarks, when Rev. H. F. C'reitzberg arose and asked all who wish ed Mr. Leitch to give a farewell service Monday before train time, to stand up. The vast audience sprang to its feet in an instant. At ten yesterday morning the church was again tilled to overflowing with a crowd that kept interest for over two hours, notwithstanding the fact that the service was irregular in its nature. There probably never was a time in Chester's history when a deep and earnest religious feeling so thoroughly pervaded the town as on yesterday. Forty-seven persons in all signified a desire to connect with the church, during the latter part of the revival, and every man, woman and child that atteuded the services regularly seemed deeply and in many cases visibly r impressed with the importance of lead ing a more consistent life. During the . last three or four days, the morning ser1 vices were in part given to experience k meetings. This custom many regard as I obsolete. It did not seem so in Chester, with at least three of the leading law1 yers in town seeking part therein, together with some of the best known business men of the place, and many other tnale and female members of all the four leading churches here. Large re-inforcements from the country swelled the congregation toward the last. One noticeable feature of the meetings was that the half of the church nearest the pulpit always filled first. Quite a number were at the train yesterday afternoon to bid Mr. Leitch good-by as he left for a week's rest at Charleston with his family. He will pass through here one Saturday on the way to Monroe, to begin a meeting there on Sunday. Chester was overrun on Saturday with railroad contractors. They were here from at least four States to attend the letting of contracts for fifty miles of the grading west of Chester on the Georgia, Carolina and Northern railroad. The number of contractors in town has been estimated at from seventy-five to one hundred. About sixty proposals were made on the work, which was let out in ten contracts. The following, beginning at Chester and going westward, were the successful bidders, together with the extent of each contract: Robert llallyburton, Chester, S. C., six miles; Stewart, Sullivan & Co., Chester, S. C., three miles; C. J). Langhorn, Richmond, Ya., live miles; Murdock & Colvin, Columbia, S. C., masonry at Broad river ; M. J. Condon & Co., Knoxville, Tenu., ten miles; (Jreystone, (iranite and Construction company of Raleigh, X. C., J. II. Winder, president, three miles; L. Wright it Co., Richmond, Ya., eight miles; (Jriffith it Lineberger, Memphis, Tenn., six miles; S. Ilolshuuser it Co., Clinton, S. C., four miles ; A. it C. Wright, Rusk, X. C\, five miles. This carries the work on five miles beyond Clinton, in Laurens county. Several of these contractors are already on the ground. The others will have their plants on hand soon and go right ahead with the work. Mr. J. Harvey Westbrook died hereon Saturday night at the residence of Mr. J. M. Fudge. Mr. Westbrook had been in bad health for some time. Several weeks ago, he went up to Patterson Springs to try the virtue of its waters, but found no relief, growing worse instead of better. His friends started home with him on Saturday, but when Chester was reached it was found that the patient was too far exhausted to go any farther. At Mr. Westbrook's request he was taken to Mr. Fudge's, the two families being related. The excitement of the trip having passed, the sick man began to sink, dying in about eight hours after he was taken from the train. Mr. Westbrook leaves a wife and three children, the former being with him jit the time of his death. His remains were interred at Cnion church. Ilis comt munity has lost a kind neighbor and the county a Christian citizen. A large number of visitors have been in town within the last few days : Among the number were Misses Lillie and Emma Strieker, of Concord, X. G\, at Mr. It. \V. Strieker's; Miss Wrennie Heath, at Mr. (J. 1). Heath's; Miss Mary Lee, of Sumter, at Mrs. Gaston's; Miss Fannie McFadden, at Mr. J. C. McFadden's; Miss Sams, of Gaffney, with Mrs. F. A. Marshall, at Xail's Hotel; Misses Lottie and Annie Bar. ber; Mrs. Patience Corn well; Mr. and MrsF. H. Brown, of York, with their daughter, Mrs. S. M. Jones. Two negroes, Peter White and Oscar llaynes, got into a difficulty last night near It. L. Simmons's store. Haynes stabbed White in four or five places during the row, several of the wounds being quite serious. The Sunday-school convention at the A. B. P. church met this morning, ltevs. J. C. Galloway, II. B. Blakely, It. M. Stevenson and J. S. Moffatt, together with Messrs. Jos. Wylie, and S. It. Lathan, took part in the discussions this morning. LETTER FROM I'NUlN. Corro!i|xiii(loiic?' of tin? Yorkvillt? Kn<|iiirrr. Union, S. C., July :28.?Mr. Jeter Counts, I of this place, who has been very ill for' some time, is now at his post again. Mac Miller, a colored man living about half a mile up the railroad, on waking last Tuesday morning, found a neat little coffin at his door, well made and neatly trimmed in black, evidently being made by one who knew his business well. In the coffin was ia 38-calibre, centre-fire cartridge, and a ! note containing the following words of i warning: "The way of the transgressor is hard. Make haste and flee from the wrath i that is to come." i The day before, Miller had a falling out j with his employer, Mr.T. K. Foster, about i I some straw. Miller marched through Mr. j j Foster's yard, gun in hand, ...id shot it off; i swearing and cursing before his wife and j i children", and threatening to burn clown i j his house. Mr. Foster had no weapon ; with which to protect himself. Mr. Fos* ( ter says he knows nothing about the coffin. ( | There is a feeling of much excitement among the white people. Mrs. S. M. McXeel and Miss Ilulda Mc- , i Neel, of Yorkville, are visiting the family I of Mr. J. K. Young. There will be a cleI lightful sociable this evening at Mr. ' Young's residence, in honor of Miss McNeel. Mr. Jno. A. Fant had quite a lively time I with a mad-dog last Monday morning. ( The dog ran into the house where his wife land children were, aud secreted himself 1 i in a closet. His servant lired two bullets 1 | in him. The dog then ran into the yard where Mr. Fant killed him. Mr. Webster Wilburn, of this county, ( died early last Monday from cholera mor- , bus, caused from eating fish. i Your correspondent has been told by a number of our most prosperous farmers, < that the crops were never better than at j present. Here are the figures at what Mr. ] W. A. Moorhead estimates his four-horse | farm: < 800 bushels of oats at 50 cents, $ 400 00 ' 2000 bushels of com at 70 cents, 1,400 00 : 20 bales of cotton at $40, 800 00 ' 55 bushels of wheat, 48 00 1 Total, $2,048 00 i The best part of this exhibit is that it is 1 made at a cost of only $G00.00. 1 A heavy rain set in last evening about 7 o'clock, and continued till 3 this morning, t Reports from farmers in the county say ( that considerable damage is done to the ] crops, especially bottom corn. The streams j and rivers are very high, and are still ? rising. Fences and trees are blown down. It continues to rain, but very slowly. Mr. Jas. H. Rodger, who has been work- t ing so faithful at his brick yard?almost i day and night?in order to get the brick , ready for the oil mill, lost over 20,000 brick by the rain. w. G .c. i LETTER FROM LANCASTER. ! Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Lancaster, July 29.?We have again been blessed with good rains, and the crop < still makes good promise. The County Alliance of the colored persuasion met here at the court house on i ..n,l nnnmimad fhu wholo rlllV I OUl.uiv.mv, uiiu tv/iiouiiivu niv it iiviv vwj in deliberation and discussion. Like the i whites who belong to the Alliance, they ] work with closed doors, and keep their own secrets. I presume they are in har- I mony with the whites, on all matters ap- i pertaining to the Alliance. 1 The white Alliance of Lancaster seems < to endorse the action of the State Alliance i in suppressing the jute trust, and also in i establishing an exchange for farmers, al- i though they say the latter is a little com- 1 plicated and will be troublesome, if not 1 dillicult to manage. < Two of our ministers, Rev. C. W. Humphries and Rev. P. F. Kilgo, have been | quite sick. The latter took a trip to Cleve- I land springs. Roth are said to be improv- i ing. The pulpit of the Rev. P. F. Kilgo was filled yesterday by the Rev. Mr. Harmon, of Richburg. Mr. Harmon also made an address to the Sunday-school. He is a man of power in the pulpit. Our town continues to be remarkably ' healthy this season, there being no cases of pure fever in the place. The work on the building for the Lan- ' caster Manufacturing company goes on rapidly as well as that on the academy. I The friends of both these enterprises are i calculating upon good results. * ( Some of our people expect to avail them- , selves of the excursion train to Shelby, under the conduct and management of the people of Rock Hill, on next Thursday. 1 I saw the new spring - n the Robin Love place the other day. A few hours' stay at that place convinced me that the water is uncommon. The effect produced will show this in a short time. It is a pity that accommodations could not be erected there right away. I believe that the water has as good medicinal properties as Cleveland, : and I would not be surprised to find them . better. I saw the analysis made by a scientific chemist, and his remarks in refer- ! ence to the qualities of the water. I be- ! lieve if I could make arrangements with ; my friend, Meek Faulkner, or William Caldwell, I would like to spend a few days nf iKio otitMnr* in A ncrnaf DPTI at tuio o|/i iu ? NOTES FROM BLAIRSVILLE. C<)rr<'.-;|ioii(loiicc of tlm Yorkville Enquirer. Blairsville, July 29.?Blairsville and Sharon are certainly on a big boom at the present time. The incessant buzz of vehicles, both night and day, indicates a de- : gree of life rarely witnessed in any villages of their population. The picnic at Sharon last Thursday, gotten up by our people, certiynly was very creditable to all concerned. It is but another proof of the energy and indomita- < ble spirit of the citizens of this section, "to be excelled by none" when they undertake to entertain their friends. Music, oratory, wit, beauty and pleasant humor reigned supreme throughout the entire ' occasion. Old memories were awakened and lasting impressions were made there to be carried with us throughout the checkered scenes of this life. May these oases remain intact till we meet again, ( when local pride of our section will again drive from our bosoms all little considerations of ourselves and substitute in their place that noble spirit which teaches us i that we are not born totally for ourselves, but for ourcountry and our fellow creatures, 1 who deserve our generosity and magnanimity on every occasion. There is certainly a fine crop prospect in Bullock's Creek township, for both corn and cotton. The recent rains have made ? ??i H-. *?.: ?i It Wliai we cmi it sure uiiug. mersnin. Samuel and J. (J. Blair can show some creditable specimens of upland cornfields. | Their corn looks like a prize crop and will yield at least forty bushels per acre. Their cotton, as usual, is splendid, and on the whole their entire farm is a model. There are many more such farms in this township, and her other resources are varied. The railroad authorities committed a financial error when they located their line outside of its limits. While speaking of the good crop prospects, I should not fail to mention the i misfortune of one farmer on Bullock's 1 creek?Mr. John E. IMaxico?who lost the first planting of corn by reason of over- , flow, but planting again he secured agood \ stand, though he thinks this has been entirely destroyed by the recent heavy rains. The railroad commissioners have written to the Sharon people that there will be a meeting at Sharon on the IDth of August for the purpose of taking evidence in re- , gard to the grounds upon which the people ? built at that place. Our people have always been very conservative in their course toward the railroad authorities in this matter, and I trust that a correct J statement of facts in the case, when as- , certained by the railroad commissioners, i will have a tendency to bring both parties to an amicable arrangement of the difficulty, as to the location of a depot at Sharon. Dr. R. A. Ross, pastor of Sharon A. it. 1\ church, will be absent on tho second Sunday of August, assisting Rev. C. JO. ; McDonald with communion services. The i Young Men's Missionary society will meet j at Sharon A. R. P. church on that day. I Addresses are expected from J. M. White, j of Hickory Grove, M. M. Ross, of Blairs- j vilie, and others. , ! Protracted services will begin at Old j Bullock's Creek church on the bth of I August,conducted by Jtev. R. 1'. Smith,' assisted by Rev. W. G. Neville. This i promises to be an occasion of deep in-1 terest to the large congregation. There will be preaching at Harmony | church regularly once a mouth, after this date, by Rev. Mr. Fraser, of Olivet. CKOAKKK. > ? The people of Sandy Run, Lexington county, are in a state of fren/.y over the threats of Lewis Scipio, a desperate negro, i to burn their buildings and do other damage. The white people of the neighbor-; hood started to capture Scipio and he took ; to the woods, and there has been a sue- j cession of daily and nightly searches for him in vain. He is armed, and known to j be capable of doing what he threatens. i SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. ? The grand jury of Laurens county lias created a sensation by presenting a large number of persons of both sexes and races for living in a state of fornication or adultery. ? Mr. Thomas S. Williams, of Aiken county, has already shipped 7,000 crates of peaches and nine carloads of watermelons, and while the fruit has not sold for fancy prices, it has paid him handsomely. ? The Aiken Recorder says that the farmers of Aiken county have not taken much stock in the bagging business this year, and they will simply use the covering that is the cheapest. ? Tom Sims, colored, charged with the murder in Newberry of an old colored man by the name of Joe Henderson, was arrested in Gaston county, N. C? recently, and has been delivered to the Newberry authorities. ? A fire at Kershaw, Lancaster county, one day last week, destroyed the Comet office, a barroom and a furniture store. The barroom was insured for $1,001) and the furniture store for $100. The fire is supposed to be the work of an incendiary. ? Columbia Register: The warrants for pensions for the months of June and July will be issued on the 31st of this month, so that pensioners can get their money the first of August. As there are 1,938 pensioners now on the roll, at $3 per month, the warrants for these two months amount to about $11,028. On the average the deaths of about five pensioners are reported each month. ? John Yeldell, alias Rev. John Flemon, colored, detained at Pittsburg, Pa., on the charge of murder committed at Edgefield, this State, is still in the keeping of the Pennsylvania authorities. On the requisition being made by Governor Richardson for his surrender to the South Carolina officers, he applied to the Pennsylvania supreme court for a writ of habeas corpus. The case was argued before the Pennsylvania supreme court, and Judge Ewing rendering the opinion, refused to ?rant the writ sued for. Yeldell's counsel and citizens of Pittsburg have appealed to Governor Richardson to withdraw the warrant in thecase. This he will not be likely to do. ?'Columbia Register : As the result of the examination held by the superintendent of education on the lGth inst., the following named young men of South Carolina have been awarded Peabody scholarships in the Nashville Normal college at Nashville, Tennessee: D. L. Lewis, Timmonsville ; M. L. Ilartin, Lexington county; J. L. Eskew, Newell, Anderson county; W. C. McGee, Riley's, Abbeville county. Upon the recommendation of the president of the college, and in consideration of their having already attended the exercises of the college one year at their own expense, Peabody scholarships have been awarded to Miss Eugenia McGee Renson, of Anderson, Mr. D. W. Odom, of Marlboro county. ? In Fairfield county, seven miles from NVinnsboro, about 11 o'clock last Saturday night, John G. Stewart was shot and killed by William J. Herron. Stewart went to Ilerron's house, as is alleged, for the purpose of seeking a quarrel, and was warned by Herron, who was standing in his door, not to advance upon him. Stewart did not heed the warning, and Herron fired with fatal result. Ilerron surrendered himself to the sheriff. Both are men of respectability. Herron is a married man inu Stewart was unmarried. The cause of the murder is said to be something of a rather delicate nature, and though the relations of the two men and the supposed 3auseof the difficulty are well known in Winnsboro, no one can be got to talk in regard to it at present. Something sensational is said to be likely to be developed it the trial. LIST OF LETTERS. The following is a list of the letters remaining in the post office at Yorkville, S.
