After a lapse of four mouths we again i find our lot fast in with the good people of; Edgmoor for a season, and are pleased to j <* wl ! note tne many signs 01 prosperity ui^wjni.; The weekly rains have retarded farm work to a.great extent. Yet^ by perseverance, a goorf neal'of small'grain has been sowh, and is looking well. The hedges and fence rat s are being cleaned up and farms are putting on a neat appearance. There is some complaint, though not a great deal, of scarcity of labor. Some farmers are investing in more stock, and good mules are, iu many instances, taking the place of more inferior horseflesh. Almost every farmer has a few bales j of the fleecy staple still on hands, waiting for "a rise." Probably it is the sight of this 1 uncommon article iu the farmers' possession at this season that encourages the purchase of better stock. . Mr. Norman Elder, the County Alliance lecturer, delivered a public address at High Point academy on the 22nd ultimo, giving soitregood;-twmid, sensible advice and encouragement to his'.brother Alliance man. At the close the Edgmoor Alliance heflnlmjA^atf seiArft?session, bat m we were excltuled we can't report its proceedings,' ?{Thi Shiloh- Alliance met on Saturday p. m., 81st ultimo. new builijuigs are beginning to ratr'tneir heads in the *'Vale of Edgmoor." Mr. J. C. Dickey is putting up a neat cottage which will be occupied by Mr. Lloyd, the i depot agent. /.IIv I t w *i j Mr. W. E. Dickey is also'putting up a! small frame building, but not for himself we ! presume, since he is still that much-to-bepitied object, a bachelor. The High Point school, under the management of its former teacher, Miss Hattic Ratterree, was-opened on the 19th of January with a respectable attendance. Mrs. Cora Reid has charge of the school at Mt. Holly. Mr. Lee Oats still "teaches the young idea" at Neely's Creek, and Miss Lizzie Pierce, of Newport, has charge of the Roddey Academy. Miss Mattie McElwee is visiting friends in Mecklenburg. Miss Mary Workman is visiting Miss Lillie Dickey, at Fishing Creek. Mr. J. L. Shaw, of Littleton, N. C., former depot agent at this pluce, is here on a visit. In imagination we hear the chimes of next week's wedding-bells, and when Mr. Shaw | departs, Santuc will doubtless be minus oue of her sweetest human plants. May joy, happiness and prosperity attend them. Dr. Lyele, formerly of Chester village, is now practicing his profession at Fishing Creek Factory*. Dr. Frank Straight, the retiring physician of that locality, is in New York, and on his return will go to the "Hub of the Piedmont." taking with him one. of Chester's fitfr.daughters. Neely'sfXreek and'Edgmoor have made "a call-far Revt ?. W. Sloan, and iijn the meantime, are being supplied by synod. Nutwithstanding the inclemency pfihe weather, Dr. R. A. Ross filled his apuHhtment.on yesterday, preaching to a small but interred audience. Sabbath night ho was the guest of Mr. J. C. Dickey. It fe tohe hoped the doctor .will be sept to us again, as many who would ' hav^ appreciated hearing his loved and well-remembered voice in days of yore, were-deprtved of hearing him on yesterday , your correspondent amoug the unfortunate number. Having once for a short season enjoyed the privilege of "teaching the young idea" in his flock and sitting under the sound oft*# toijce, pleasaht aesociatioua and yet sad memories cluster arouud his name. H. R. " " LETTER FRO**BLACKSBiRG. Correspondence of The YorkvHle Enquirer 4CMRVRH, jFabriuwj' 3 -r-Qa Wedpesday'feveniug last fne residence of *Mr. A. B. Crosby was, -the scene of a select and very pleasant party, of young people, which assembled iuhonor of Mr. 31. 31. Freeman, the popular auditor of the Three O's railroad, who will leave here about the 15th instant to accept a position on the Richmond apd Danville system, having his headquarters at Atlanta. By strict attention to the duties of his office, his uniform courtesy, his gentlemanly deportment, as'well as his tine sociul qualities, Mr. Freeman is in a high degree the possessor of the confidence and esteem of his fellow associates in the Three C's ottice, and the respect and admiration of our citizens generally. It is with genuine regret that we give bim up, and assure hiin that he will carry with him the best wishes of all our people. , . Encouraged by the success which attended the supper given on the 23d uiltiiuo, the k ladies of the Presbyterian church gave another hot supper 'on Friday evening last, which was also quite successful. The money realized from both is for the purpose of paying the balance, due on the organ, and varnishing the seats. Presbytery will be held with the church'at this place in April, at which time it is hoped arrangements will be made for securing the services of a regular minister. Rev. Mr. McLain preached in the church on Sunday last, and Rev. Dr. English will officiate ou the fourth Sunday in this month. ' The members of Mount Pnran Baptist church, situate about two miles from our town, have recently erected a very neat and comfortable church building, 30 x 54 feet, j which they have already had tastefully j painted, and will finish up in churehly style, j In October last some of the prominent j ladies of our town organized a "ladies pray-! er meeting," which has since assembled regularly every Tuesday afternoon, at the different churches. On Tuesday last, thequar- j terly election of officers was held, at which 3Irs. A. Urquhart was unanimously re-elect-! ed president, Mrs. J. W. Humbert elected j vice-president, 3Irs. Win. 31. Jones sci re- j tary, and Miss Mainie Lucas treasurer. The meetings are well attended, much interest is j felt and shown in them, and no doubt an influence for good, quiet, but powerful, will be felt, in our whole community. Our town council has ordered the issuing of bonds to the amount of seven hundred and tifty dollars for the purpose of building j a sehool house for the eolored children of this school district. The bonds will soon he sigued and the building contract let to the lowest bidder within the next twenty days. , The council at ite meeting last night ordered that all houses for the storage of guano l>e located at least 200 yards away j from any dwelling in the town. This order, of course virtually removes guano, with its uupleasant odor, out of the town. Dr. Wilson, a chemist ami mining bnginecr j of considerable reputation, was sent here hist week by the John I. Miduleton company, of Baltimore, for the purpose of examining the ore of the Magnetic Iron ami Steel Ore company of our town. He made three visits to the mines, and is prepared to render a very favorable report to the company. He stated, while here, that he was surprised to find an ore of such high grade as this has been often proved to be. to cxistjio '.-mch great quantity; that he believed the supply was inexhaustible, and lie did not know of a parallel ease in North America. A literary and debating society was organized here on Friday evening last, at tingraded school building, by the young men of the place, and will hold its meetings weekly. The object is to encourage literary pursuits an?T improve in the art of elocution. w. a. LKTTKK FROM UNION COUNTY. Correspondence of The Yorkvillc Knijuirer. Ktta Jank, February 2.?Quite a storm of wind and rain passed over this section yesterday morning about 2 o'clock. The rain continued falling until noon yesterday. Last week a number of dogs bitten by a rabid dog which passed through this neighborhood week before last, were killed. In some instances the owners refuse to kill their dogs preferring to keep them and risk their going mad. Thus the neighborhood is in dauger of a general uprising of these callings. With some people the dog? sefems to.be "one of the family" and his presence ground tho'fire is indispensiMe ;o the family Circle. A'judicibus application of-bitVksliot where these nuisances are found strolling j about would provoke an amen from those chicken eaters who wish to attend the big, meetings next summer. ' * Our section will he well represented on the various hone yards to-day. A number of "rips'' left in the hands of "swappers," who will, of course, tell the truth as to their, good qualities. Mr. J. Hemphill Bigham, of Sharon, paid i us a visit last week. He with a number of, youngsters spent Saturday evening pleasantly at the home of our friend George W.. Estes. It was a singing. The actors in our trial justice court last j week were patriotic enough to help out the county fund about $55, rather than board out . .. .... t 4 that amount with Mierm j.ioii|i at , peuse. Those entertainments known as j "riots" are not so pleasant after all, and it is i hoped will he less popular in the future. Oil account of the rain, the Sunday-school convention at Mesopotamia was postponed ; until more favorable weather, Considerable preparations were made to Inn e a grand display of this good work and the movers haven't given up tiieic purpose. . . siuma. , LETTER FROM SMYRNA. CorrespoiMlem-e of The Yorkvllle Enquirer. Smyrna, February 2.?The gold fever at this place seems to be rising higher and j higher. A number of prosj>ectors were; around here last week and became very i much excited over what they found. They were shown a fine specimen of gold hearing quart/ that has been in possession of Mr. F. 1). Horn for a number of years. Of course they wanted the specimen and wanted it bad, but Mr. Horn would not sell. The prospectors then went out to find what they could for themselves, and a few hundred yards from Mr. Horn's house they found another specimen that was really richer than the one they had been shown.

To give an idea of the quantity ofcotton that has been mude this year, here are the figures of one of our gin owners. Last year hegitined R90 bales, and this year 470. He furthermore reminds us that two more new gins have commenced operations in the neighborhood since last year. We would like to see a little fair weather just now. The past fall bus been unfavorable for seeding oats, and the time for this work is rapidly growing shorter. Unless we can get some work done soon, the acreage will necessarily be light, and all our farmers are specially anxious to excel all previous crops this year. Miss Fannie Whitesides, of Sharon, is .visiting her sister at this place this week. BRIEF REMARK KR. NOTES FROM L0WKYSV1LLE. Correspondence of The Yorkvllle Kncjulrer. Lowrysville, February 2.?Ziou church is still without a pastor, though we have preaching nearly every Sabbath through the i kindness of the neighboring ministry. Mrs. Riley left here for Columbia, to reside with her sister, Mrs. Dr. Pope, a few days after the funeral of her husband. Evangelist Leitch has been for the past week conducting- a series of servicu?~at the ' Chupol cbuiylv new* hero, , The .meetings j have attracted large congregations and have; raited in numerous additions to the church, k A-O^iderable quantity of fertilizers isi being-received at this place daily, but very little is being hauled away by the farmers on account of the muddy condition of the roads, j Considerable comment has been heard i hereabouts in regard to the authorities neg- J lecting to bring criminal action agaiust the defaulting ex-adjutant general of South Carolina. If a man steals five dollars he is branded as a thief and speedily punished. Whether the owner recovers the money orj not makes no difference ; but if he should get away with $5,000, he is only "an unfortunate j gentleman, by force of circumstances, in a false and distressing position," and is dismissed with the assurance that "the people of the State do not demand his prosecution." w. o. G. GUI LD XUTES. Correspondence of The Yorkvllle Enquirer. Gould, February 2.?Farm work has been greatly retarded this season and there still remains a great deal that should have been done last fall. Fall sown oats show up a good stand but unfortunately only a small portion of the crop has yet been sown and a considerable quantity still remains tb he put in. Wheat is not so forward this year as usual, and so far the outlook for a good crop is fiVst rate. Labor seems to be plentiful and so far everybody is well supplied with hands. Mr. \V. G. Palmer slaughtered a thirteen j months old shoat a few weeks ago that net-1 ted 380 pounds. Mr. If. F. Horton killed one last week that weighed 3G9 pounds, j Though the weather is very unfavorable for! saving recently killed meat, so far I have heard of no losses. Money is scarce and business is dull. I see no hope for a change except in a rise of the price of cotton. H. CH BSTElTxOTks. Correspondence of The Yorkvllle Enquirer. Chester, February 3.?Col. T. B. Bomaree and Lon J.

S. R. Riley was adopted: It is our sad and painful duty to record the death of our noble and beloved pastor, Rev. S. R. Riley, which occurred Friday, January 9, 1891, at 9 j>. m. Weknew him well. Ho was ourpttHtor, friend and neighbor; his quiet, unobtrusive muuners, liis ability and consecration to his sacred calling, his fidelity and interest in and for his people, his high and noble purposes in life, challenge the mhoiration of all who knew him ; indeed it was hfnaturnl for him to he true and noble as for the sun to shine. Therefore, be it Resolved, 1. That in the death of our beloved pastor, S. R. Riley, this people have lost one of whom it may he truly said, was to them a guide, counsellor and friend ; to his wife a kind, hiving husband ; to his parents a devoted son; and to his sisters and brother a sympathizing and loving heart in all their duties.

Interview Your Neighbor. An Illinois paper, in speaking of the Disk Harrow* su.ve: "A J'ool can ruu it successfully ; u cripple, with both legs and one arm gone, ran do trtore and better -work with it than n twolegged and two-armed giant ean in the old way." We have never seen the above test made, but we are certain that one able Iwnlied man with two mules and a No. 7 t'orbin Harrow, can put in as many oats in a day as live men and live mules ean by the old way,? and we are also certain thatIhtftorfta. put in with the harrow will belelt in bAter iSmiltfTon than thbsoput in with a plow. There is no doubt that the t'orbin Disk Harrowis the best farming implement in the world ; and, for the reason that it will do more kinds of work and better work than any other implement, and because it is so simple in construction that it ean he operated as successfully by a twelvoyearjold boy a?h>vn grown man, . , i , Knrmv time to time during the past eighteen tiionlhs we have published testimonials 'from well known and successful farmers who are UHing t'orbin Harrows, and now for the information of those who may prefer verbal testimony, we give l>elowu list of farmers who are using the Harrow, and invite any who may Ihi interested in the matter to interview as many of them as may be convenient, and ascertain whether or not the Harrow is all that is claimed for it.

THE HAIR OF THRDOG IS NOT GOOD FOR THE BITE I ' THIS month one. year ago, we advertised in The Enquiber that we were willing, and^ would sell our goods to PROMPT PAYING CREDIT CUSTOMERS ON AS FAVORABLE TERMS AS COULD BE OBTAINED FROM ANY CASH HOUSE IN THE STATE. WE DID IT?WE FILLED OUR CONTRACT TO THE LETTER. It was not a business proposition on onr part; hut we did it to relieve our friends of their depressed condition in money matters, believing, under the circumstances, that these accounts .would be paid before the FIRST DAY Uf IHWvrj?Q.D?iiv> tuc u?j u? which they became due. Many did appreciate our effort* to relieve them and paid their account* when due?some before. Some made little sacrifices to show their appreciation of o|ir efforts to accommodate them. Thefe are others, however, who seem to think that we can await their convenience and still furnish them with the luxuries and necessaries of life without a cent of money from them to replenish the shortage. The long and short of the above is, we want our money. We cannot and will not carry account* perpetually without a settlement, and we would request all parties indebted to us to call and pay their accounts. If you can't pay in flail, pay what yon can and tell us when you will pay the balance. We caunot afford to make new accounts with parties that have not paid their old accounts according to implied promise.
