cases it is usually not at all difficult to find a sufficient pretext. The "Hellt of York" Dead. The uBelle of York," a fine race mare belonging to Messrs. Whitaker & Parish, died in Yorkville last Thursday night of colic. The mare was a most promising thoroughbred. She won second money 011 the St. Louis race track last season, and her owners immediately afterward refused an offer of $1,000 cash for her. Cliarlertou Excursion. Special attention is called to the advertisement of the Charleston Excurci/m hv V H. Kamseur in an ?"" -v ?"r other columu. The rate from Yorkville and return, as will be noted, is the lowest that has ever beeu offered. Captain Ramseur has a well earned reputation of being the most successful excursion manager that has ever taken a traitiloud of people from this section, and the individual in this section who desires to make a pleasant trip to the "City by the Sea,;' should not fail to take advantage of such an opportunity. Camping: in Columbia. The Citadel cadets arrived in Columbia from Charleston last Saturday night, and went into their annual encampment. They will remain in Columbia until tomorrow, when they will march across the country to Camden, and have their commencement exercises at that place. AT THE CHURCHES. EPISCOPAL.. Rev. Robt. A.

This is, as all know, a preparation to apply to the inside walls and ceilings, making them fresh, bright and beautiful. It will not scale or come off; will not come off' on the clothing. It stays on and looks as well on ceiled walls as it'doeson smooth or hard finished plastered walls. You can apply it yourself. I have known ladies to put it on. It can be done at a * cost of from 50 cents to 81.50 a room. Its preparation for use is simple. Pour a specified quantity of cold water, mentioned in the directions, on the contents of a package, stir well and it is ready for use. We have it in all the beautiful tints and colors. New Buggy?

Won't you alight and come in. Mr. Green? No, thank you, Mrs. Brown, I haven't time this morning. Mary, (his wife,) asked me to ride around this way and enquire for the baby, as we heard he was quite sick. Mrs. Brown?I'm sure it is very kind of you and Mary to think about him, and I am glad to be able to say that he is very much better now. He has been quite sick. 1 >r. Black gave us some medicine for him before he went away; but it did him no good. He's getting his teeth, you know, and his bowels became uncontrollable and he could neither digest his food nor retain it. Mr. Green?lie was in a bad shape sure enough. Mrs. Brown?He was indeed, Mr. Green, and we were fearfully alarmed about him until we commenced giving him AntiFerment, and it helped him from the first ?lose. His bowels are now under control, he digests his food, is regaining his llesh and seetns to be eettitur well as fast as pos sible. We still give him the Anti-Ferment three times a day and after each time he is fed. Mr. Green?Why, Mrs. Brown, AntiFerment is really a wonderful remedy. Mrs. Brown?It certainly is, Mr. Green, and I don't expect to he without a bottle in the house. It is good for so many things. Mr. Green?Mary has some right bad spells of indigestion and palpitation. I tliink I'll get a bottle for her. Mrs. Brown?By all means, Mr. Green. It will relieve her of those attacks every time and in a few minutes. Mr. Green?I'll get a bottle the next time I go to York. Mrs. Brown?Bring Mary up and pay us a visit. Joe ami I would be delighted to have you spend sometime with us. Mr. Green?Thank you ; will try to do so. Good bye. Mrs. Brown?Good bye. John ('.

SALMON?NOT STURGEON. WE have long entertained the opinion that a large proportion of the citizenship of Yorkvillc and the region round about, did not want anything in the way of eatables except the very best, and would patronize a concern that sold only this class of goods, especially if its prices were right. Entertaining this opinion as we do, we have adhered strictly to this rnlo mid linvfi never knowinelv ottered anything oxcept the I?OHt quality of goods, iuuI overybody knows wo compete in prices. We desire this week once more to call the attention of those who use Canned Salmon to the fact thai we have just received another shipment of GENl'INK CO LI: Mill A IUVHR SALMON. Some dealers sell a canned fish branded "Salmon" which is really sturgeon. Sturgeon in somewhat similar to salmon in color, but just there the resemblance ceanen. tainion isoneofthc most palatable of all fish, and sturgeon iH one of the leant desirable.

I Propose to Paralyze Prices on Dry Goods in Yorkville. IN the future it will he a very huge joke for any inereliant in tlie.se "diggi us" to say that lie sells any Roods of any quality at a lower figure tliau I do mine ; and just remember, right here, that the quality of goods that I sell is far superior to the goods usually brought to thisseetion, and I shall certainly sustain my reputation of the past by handling only the BEST quality of "everything in my line. My prices will be such as to please the careful iutyer and make competitors gnash their guinsand tear their hair in impotent wonderment ; but I shall not object, as it will he quite a comic scene for our customers to laugh at. Now just for "a little joke that will be so amusing," I will quote you a few prices on some Dress Goods that arrived last week : French Figured Organdies, former price 25 cents, now 15 cents a yard. Figured Mulls, formerly 25 cents now 15 cents a yard. Figured Hrilliantc formerly 25 cents, at 15 cents a yard. Dotted Swiss formerly 25 cents now 15, cents a yard. Zephyr Ginghams formerly 15 cents now only 7* cents a yard. Genuine Manchester Fhambray at 10 cents a yard. Scotch I.awns at 5 cents a yard. Genui e Berkshire Lawns at 84 cents a yard. The linger nails will not cut through the Kayser Patent Finger-tipped Silk Gloves. We have them at 50 and 75 cents and $1 a pair. The latent and best thing for ladies' skirt and putt'sleeve lining ; is Fibre Chamois ; its advantages being that dampness does not atfect it and if it is crushed it tvill rise and stand forth again.

We are now making a better buggy than when we built the one Mr. Parish refers to, as we have had more experience. Every buggy we sell is guaranteed for 12 months, and it's no picayunish guarantee that we give; but one that is worth something. If you contemplate buying a Buggy or Ladies' Phaeton, we hope you will give our agent at Yorkville, Mr. Sam M Grist, a showing at you. He will do you right.
