Correspontlencc of the Yorkvillc Knouircr. Rock Hill, February 11.?The Knights, of Honor of the lloek llill lodge, met in special session, at the call of Dictator J. \V. Thomson, hist Wednesday evening at 7.30 j o'clock. The occasion was the visit of' Grand Dictator X. W. Trump, who deliver-' y ed a very interesting and instructive lecture, listened to with pleasure by the members of the lodge and quite a number of their friends. Following the address came a collation, then short speeches by Revs. Sweeny, Brown and Lesslev, Major London, Mayor Fewell, and Mr. J. J. Hagins. The occasion was a pleasant one, long to be remembered by those who participated in the enjoyment of the evening. Mr. Zeb M. Johuston, of Rock Hill, and . Miss Rosa L. Graham, of Charlotte, were , united iu marriage last Wednesday night. | The ceremony was performed in the Second Presbyterian church of Charlotte by Ilev. Dr. I John H. Boyd. l)r. W. A. Pressley, of our city, was the groom's '"best man,'' and the only attendant. After the ceremony, the % bridal party went to the home of the groom's parents, where a reception was given them. The newly married couple left Charlotte on the 11 o'clock train for Rock Hill, their future home. They are boarding with the family of Mr. Greene B. Steele, in Oakland, where a reception was tendered them on last Friday evening. Mr. Johnston is the junior member of the firm of Ruff & Johnston, and has made many warm friends during his short stay in our midst, who will all extend a most cordial welcome to his bride. The "The Uncle Tom's Cabin'' company was billed here for Thursday night and arrived on the ground in good time; but, owing to the extreme cold and the insufficient mcaus of heating the opera house, the performance was postponeiCfor one night. This night, in turn, was so little better as regards temperature, another postponement was deemed advisable; and so Saturday night was decided upon and duly advertised, and this engagement was met. The attendance was small, and we have not yet heard any comments as to how the performance pleased the audience. The blizzard has not been without its ef, feet, we were told by an official of-the Southern railroad, in turning the tide of travel toward Florida with a rush during j the past few days. The vestibule train j going south is crowded nearly every day; j but the severe weather in higher latitudes ( has been causing great irregularity in the < running of these trains, throwing them sevr j eral hours off, on a schedule that is splen- , didly arranged, and can, under ordinary i . \ e. 'u_ U ?11 1 f vircuiiisiuiiury, nu iiiuhc mui uu cuoc uuuw > the almost perfect system arranged now for I accommodating this special class of travel The question has been raised more ttan once, why Rock Hill did not put in a bid I for the next meeting of the State Teachers association. This annual meeting has been ( held twice already in Converse college, Spartanburg, and the executive coinurfitee ;, of this association, whose province it Is to j j make all arrangements for these stumer h meetings, decided last Friday night,by a'* unanimous vote, to accept the invitation , made by the Spartanburg people <ud go there a third time. Your correspondent is;, in a position to know that Rock Hi/1 is not: I yet ready to entertain the teaches of the j J State as she would like to have them enter-11 tained ; but she gives fair notice t^Spartan-1 burg and all other cities and towns that N have entertained, or may wish to entertain | ] this body, that when she does find herself |? in trim, they will be very apt to hear ofi. York county's being invaded by such a large ( division of the "vanguard of civilization," : as has never before assembled ou Carolina [1 soil. Mr. Anderson, of the senior class in the j Columbia Theological seminary, preached in j Jennings chapel yesterday afternoon, and at j White Memorial Chapel last night. He was greeted by large congregations at both places. < Since Rev. W. Ci. White went to Charlotte, these chapels are being supplied regularly by i Rev. Alexander Sprjnt with one preaching J service each Sunday. I The heavy snow which has been falling here steadily for the past five or six hours, 1 following close on the snow, sleet and hard j freeze of the last three or four days, is cal- < culated, we fear, to cause a great deal of 1 suffering among the poor of our city. Fuel 1 is now at a premium and hard to get at any ! { price, so long as the dreadfully inclement 11 weather renders hauling so difficult. This is j certainly a time for the most active efi'ortsof i those who are able and willing to exercise that sweet charity for which our citizens, es-1i pecially our noble women, have been noted j' heretofore. Surely those who have wood |, for sale cannot, with a clear conscience, take j i advantage of the necessities of their neigh bors, by demanding a higher price for fuel ; ' now than they could hope to get at any oth-1 er time. NOTABLE EVENT IN BETHEL CHURCH. | ( rupliic Description of tlie First anil Only Mar- i riage in that (iruml Old Sanctuary. I Bethel, February 11.?The marriage of ' Mr. John J. Nichols to Miss Lulu Johnston, j at 7 p. m., February 6th, is the first mar- ] riage performed in Bethel church in its 1:>1 j' years of life. Kind friends exerted themselves to haven everything as tasteful and as beautiful as possible for the occasion, thus giving a most ,1 graceful expression of the esteem in which j, the contracting parties are held. The cold snowy night limited the spectators to about 200, who watched, with eager interest, all the proceedings. Entering the church a few minutes before;, the appointed hour, we found the venerable]' sanctuary transformed into a bower of i beauty. The organ on the platform was embowered in evergreens, from whose I branches the candles twinkled tuerily. Iii|J the space between the platform and seats, ' rose a tall arch, covered with evergreens and decked with flowers. 'From the centre! of the arch was suspended the wedding bell, i covered with callaHl^s. Smaller arches stood over each aisle, and evergreens fes- j tooned the front of the recess. The ushers, , hastening hithev and thither, are busy com-1, pleting theJfrrangement for the bridal pro-!, cession aytfe enter. i. Sooifj/the organist for the occasion?the i I" ?'1IW HV/1SI? OVUUV j VI V'M> , , oliM?is led to her place at the organ. A hiirn falls on the assemblage: then like a \ trumpet peal the first notes of the "Wed- i ditg March" art: ?rsin?led. The hour is'; come. The ush< rs walk slowly down the . 1 aifles, cross over in front and stand at their 1 respective posts. Then singly come, with 1 stately tread, in time to the beautiful music, the_ pretty bridesmaids and handsome '1 sr groomsmen, each passing across in front of BE the arch to the places assigned them. Then j 9K dfj together the bridal pair, with lofty mein i ^B & and majestic tread, as tliosc who wait to be crowned, come slowly down the aisle audi , ' stand under the marriage bell. Briefly, I ir solemnly, seripturally, the ceremony rings j Eh out clearly in our ears: the responses, low Re but distinct, come after, and then, with up R lifted hand, the pastor declares the twain to 1 ' be one flesh, according to the ordinance of 1 the living God. Prayer and the benediction L"y 1 close the service, and again the organ's] i notes peal forth as the bridal party troops j * - 'down the aisle. j II would he hard to say too much of the i / great beauty of the scene presented by this service: impossible to say too much of the!'

About the Wattw-Hwliou of Trustees?Kev. : Mr. HauJlt"" and Futility Leave for Their i New UonttCorresjioiulcnce of the \orkvillc Kmjulrer. Blacksbcbo, February 12.?We have been i treated, during the past week, to some very; hne specimens of Northern weather, and but; for several self-evident facts, which remind us that wearestilli" the "XunnySouth," we might imagine that we had been transferred suddenly j to New England. On Wednesday afternoon ! there wasa moderate fall of snow, which began to melt in less than twelve hours, when Thurs-; day morning, a telegram from the weather bu-1 reau informed us that there would be a fall of 30 degrees in the temperature by Friday morning. The same came to pass, and that day was a worthy wd true successor of the "Cold Friday" which now dwells in tradition, but not within the experience of many of the present generation. A strong Northwester blew all day, and was so cold and biting that travel of any kind was almost entirely suspended. Sat urdav and Sunday were more temperate; but! seemiudy so, only for the purpose of allowing! those wio who were not prepared, to get ready for another blizzard. And about 7 o'clock yesterdaytnoming, another storm set in and continued steadily, but moderately, nearly all the day. The ground is covered to the depth of .'U J inch? this morning. With all of this experience,'^ are prepared now for anything in the way of a falling barometer, snow, ice, and aj biting stinging blizzard ; but with the exception j of certain inconveniences and discomforts, delayed trains from the North, and a suspension of regfllar work for a few days, I have heard ofj noactual suffering among our people for want' bread or fuel. pursuant to a special act of the last legislature, 1 aneleetion was held here on Tuesday last for trustees of the graded school. N. W. Hardin, | M. M. F reeman and W. Anderson were elected. Rev. W. S. Ham iter and family left here Wed-! acsday night, on the southbound Southern train, j for their new home at Euharlee, < la. Mr. Hami-; tor's work at this place during his four years' pastorateof the Presbyterian church, wasabundintly blessed and most successful. The membership of the church was almost doubled, and Its working capacity was increased in zeal and j afficiency. Not only to the members of his own ; jongregation did he and his most estimable wife andear themselves; but with all our people who j knew them, they were held in the highest es-j ;eem, and there was sincere sorrow and regret ivhen they left, and they bear with them the best i ivishes of all for their future happiness and I yelfare. w. a. i UP IX CHEROKEE.

Buffalo, February 11.?The beautiful snow s falling thick and fast this morning. It is now wo inches deep and looks as if it will be six or iglit before it stops. That means that there is a | jig rabbit hunt close at hand. It is a common tiling for some people to say hat every little cold snap breaks the record ; but hey will not be far oft'as to last Thursday and Friday. However, it has not yet become cold mough to freeze out John Starnes. John is a jachclor, ;10 years old, and lives in a pine brush irbor near Bowen's river. He sleeps in a dry ;oods box and lie always turns up next morning, 10 matter how cold may have been the previous light.

Bktiiki,, February 11.?If tlie farmers don't forget tlieir promises, there won't be much cotton i planted in this section this year. Under any I ireumstances, tlie fertilizer trade will be light. Wheat is looking miserably bad, though it is [ possible that it may make a good crop yet. On iccount of tlie weather, farm work is behind. Comparatively nothing was done in January, ind up to date, the same can be said ot February.

The proposals were rejected for the follow- j ing reasons: 1. Kaeh nienilier of this hoard is trying to! huild up for himself a legitimate prosperou.. and permanent husiness. "1. Without any responsibility to anybody, ' even to the laws of the States in which they solicit business, we regard the Lloyds as unsafe, liy representing their association we might get !i few commissions now and then that we would not otherwise have gotten; but we are sure that in the end some of our customers would be swindled by the sharpers, and that would be the end of our business. '>. Recognizing that in this selfish world of ours that the principal business of every individual is to get the wherewith to keep the pot a boiling, we are unable to appreciate the sincerity of tin association which seeks business on the plea of "patriotism," and represents that its principal object of existence is to light octopuses, etc, \Vc are unable to comprehend why a foreign association should manifest such a practical interest in our "oppressed" people. -I. The old line companies that we represent have get-at-able assets for every dollar of liability that theyhave incurred. These companies are regularly incorporated under State laws, and the different Stales take it upon themselves to see that policyholders are protected. Lloyds associations are unincorporated, irresponsible, and their policies are not regarded ample security against loss by fill-, even by the mercantile associations. The deliberate purpose of their organization is to get all they can, go as far as they can, and then quit business and divide despoils. l laving reputations at stake in the coni- , mmiity in which we live, and also individual regard for our personal honor, we do not care to lend ourselves to any such schemes. We pre-; for to do a straight forward business in the much , abused but more reliable old Line lire insurances companies. Lot \i. l?o.\i:i>, old Line I'lulcrwritors. I %rri;il $lotirt.<i. The statistics show that there is used in the ] nan u fact ore of the ltoyal baking Powder, more than half of all the cream of tartar consumed in | the United States for ail purposes. The wonder- j fill sale thus indicated for the ltoval linking Powder?greater than that of all other baking) powders combined?is perhaps the highest evidence of the superiority of this article, and of its indispensableness to modern cookery.

I February 1-5 7 It KlYKHNDAI/S (iUII) PKO (IUOS. Price Hcduccd. This is the cry that pleases the people. We hold that KuykendaPs Perfect ltaking Powder is the only absolutely pure and wholesome Powder j sold in York. Our intention and hope has heretofore been to build up a wholesale trade on it, j and we had to leave a margin of profit for the retailer. This made the price higher than the people wished, for we are sorry to know that they want a cheap Powder, no matter what its contents. We have abandoned the wholesale idea and will hereafter sell our Pure Powder as follows: 1-pound cans, '!((; {-pound cans 1,1; {-pound, 10 cents ; or at 5 cents an ounce when no more than that quantity is wanted. It has as great raising power asanv Powder made, and the reduction in price and guarantee of purity ought to make it popular. I hope the ladies will encourage what is made at home by using it, and not lot every penny find its way back to tho money centres. A Sight of Grace. Someone said that it took a sight of grace to live with a person who had a sandy complexion and the "Pyspepsy." Cure the "Pyspcpsy" by taking Anti-Ferment, and your stock of grace will not be drawn on so heavily. Persons who have dyspepsia lose in great measure the milk of human kindness. A continuous fermentation goes on in them all the time that makes them sour ami disagreeable to everyone around them. Anti-Ferment will cure your Dyspepsia and your temper and leave your stock of grace untouched, and there will be nothing left of your old self but the complexion. Save Labor And money by using (Sold Dust Washing Powder. Ladies who do their own washing will find it cheaper than soap and will he surprised at the amount of labor it saves. Sold at Kuykendal's. Price of Fertilizers. We have mailed over 3(K) circulars giving the price of our Fertilizers, both in cotton and money.

There is no brand of Shirt manufactured which meets with more support than the Monarch. Criticism is a public scale on which judgment is heaped, both for and against. The Monarch Shirt has been weighed on this scale by impartial minds, and has received a just verdict. The declaration has gone forth that it has no eqpial, and our sales are increasing every day. \\ e have sold this Shirt for four years, and yet have to hear of the tirst dissatisfied customer. What a phenomenal record ! WE KNOW FROM WHICH SOURCE We derived the reputation.we now have as lead- j ers of Hats in this market. It is the line we handle. We would be traitors to our own inter- [ est to buy Hats here and there, and let others j control the Melville here. We arc taught from experience that to handle the Melville means to j do the business. It is sutlicicnt to add that our Hats, which have just arrived, will fully sustain | the reputation they have gained, as it is the most attractive line in this market.

These we have | selected and grown with care for several seasons. | Tubers, large, i Special Color, red. , Shape, round and smooth. I Points. Flesh firm; cooks dry and mealy. I Thev mature early; are very prolific, j Will produce TWO CROPS IN ONE SEASON. Nearly all grow one size?very few [ small tubers. And this is the only potato we have ever grown that keeps in perfect condition in our climate from Spring until | Winter. We sold the last of our spring crop last year on November 10, in perfect condition and firm. The potato bug destroyed the vines of the Early Rose potato in 1803 in our tields, while they did very little damage to these, growing within 3 feet of the Early Rose variety. All points considered, this is the finest potato we have ever seen. It is a well known fact that potatoes that do well in one section of country, are often utterly worthless for other sections. This is the potato for this section, and as Southern grown second crop seed, arc well known to be superior to Northern seed, we submit we have the ideal potato for this section. PRICES: 73 cents per peck; 61.23 per half bushel ; $2.23 per bushel; $b.0<) tier barrel.
