Joe Lewis, a one-legged colored couvict, escaped from his guard in Anderson county one day last week, and securing a Winchester and a quantity of ammunition, took to the woods. The whole community went in pursuit, but the convict, seated on a log, managed to keep his pursuers at bay for several hours. He shot and killed a negro and severely wounded a white man named Ragsdale. During the night, the convict was deceived into giving up his gun to another negro named Henry Lewis, and after being securely bound was taken to jail. The maddened crowd made an unsuccessful attempt to lynch the prisoner. ? Sheriff Nance, of Abbeville, went to Hodges last Friday, to levy on a Columbia and Greenville freight train for taxes. The station agent was apprised of the object of the sheriffs visit, and telegraphed the news ahead. After awhile the agent received instructions to set all the switches so as to keep the train on the main track. Presently, the puffing engine was heard and the train came in sight, but it didn't slack up. Instead, the engineer pulled his throttle wide open and rushed past the station at the rate of thirty miles an hour. The sheriff did not succeed in making his levy. ? A train on the Charleston, Sumter and Northern road ran into the Coast Line train at Sumter, last Friday. Thomas Davis, a negro on the engine, was instantly killed. Scipto Honley and Henry McNeil, colored train hands, sustained slight injuries. McNeil was thrown with his head between the crossties and against the rail, and a derailed wheel, stopping on his head, pinioned him down. One of the wreckers remarked that there was ample time to get him out, as he was dead ; but he was mistaken. The car was jacked up, and as the pressure was lightened, the negro was heard to remark, "That is better," and said he felt relieved. When the wheel had been raised entirely from his head, he got up and walked off, apparently unhurt. THE THERMOMETER'S RECORD For the Week Ending February 7.?Observation* by Mr. .T. R.

A Bit of Local History. The Pacific Guano company was organized in the year 1865, and offered for sale the lirst commercial, or manufactured manure ever sold in the United States. The company knowing the value of their product as a fertilizer for cotton and having faith in the recuperative powers of the South, and confidence in the honor of its people, established agencies and sent the goods down here to be sold on credit. A friend of ours, with that sound discriminating judgment that has always marked him as a progressive agriculturist, saw the value of such a manure, and has the distinction of having bought the lirst ton of this noted brand ever brought to Yorkville. He tells the story, and as well as we can recollect, it is something like this. The Guano could not be shipped here by rail on account of our railroad being torn up to Guthriesville. He sent his wagon and team to Rock Hill, and hauled one ton of the Guano from that place to Yorkville. The price he agreed to pay for the ton was 885.00 m gold, on time. If our memory serves correctly again, gold was then at a premium of about 1.40 to the dollar, which, added to the gold price of the manure, with the value of his wagon and team for the journey, would make the ton cost about 8125.00 in greenbacks. To secure the payment of this debt, he gave a lien on his crop, a mortgage on his wagon and team, and I think, a mortgage on his plantation, also. It is useless to say that at these figures for their goods, the Pacific Guano company prospered. It subsequently, under the Radical rule in this State, bought Chisolm's Island, the streams of which abounded in rich deposits of phosphate rock. Under Hampton, honest rule regained ascendency in the State, and the Statebrought suit against the Pacific Guano company for the recovery of the island, gained it and made the company pay a royalty on all the ? rock it had takon from its waterways. The ^Hymenf of this royalty and the expense of ti^ation epst the company over a half million %cci;il Notices. When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria. When she was a Child, she cried l'or Castoria.

The attention of farmers is CALLED TO THE FOLLOWING EXTRACT BY AN EXCELLENT AUTHORITY ON COTTON AFFAIRS: "Under the stimulus of high prices, a large crop of cotton will be planted this year. Owing to last year's short crop, the supply will very likely be consumed before new cotton can be made. High prices will prevail during September and October. Underthepressurc of another largo crop, a repetition of last year's LOW prices will CERTAINLY follow." Condi! ions clearly point to a demand for early cotton, one that can be gathered and sold before the decline. lean furnish persons desiring an early variety, with "Jenkins's Tenn. Gold Dust," The earliest and one of the most PROLIFIC cottons introduced in this county?and from seed which produced TWO THOUSAND POUNDS TO THE ACRE hist year. The seed were raised by a reliable grower IN THIS COUNTY, (on the Kirkwood farm) and are guaranteed to be GENUINE and ABSOLUTELY PURE. It often blooms in sixty days from planting. It can bo planted after grain. It is the very cotton for bottom land and new ground. It is sure to open. It is easy to pick. It stood ahead of every variety (82) at the South Carolina Experiment station. Seedsmen elsewhere are getting higher prices than J last year, but the price here has been made VERY REASONABLE, to enable every one I to secure this valuable seed, which is peculiarly suited to the short seasons of the Carolinas.
