Parmlee Library company of Chicago, a corporation that is operating extensively throughout the United States, and which has just be gun to establish itself in South Caro lina. The Parmlee company has what is called a traveling system. Within a given territory they put say 1,00C books, divided into 20 sections of 50 books each. One section is sent to a town at a time, and after three mouths replaced by another section, so that the whole thousand books will cover a given circuit within a period of five years. In the catalogue exhibited by Mr. Henuing, about 450 authors are represented and the list includes many new books just out, such as Richard Carvel, David Harum, Red Rock, etc. The company agrees to keep its patrons supplied with all the best new books as soon as their merit becomes established, and in case a subscriber desires to read a book that is not in the section at the time available, be can get the use of it merely by paying -1 * me postage. l ue vuui(jauj> cujpiv/ja a librarian in each town and places upon patrons no other responsibility than the payment of small dues.

Says a Charlotte dispatch of Sunday : Holmes Harmon, a white man, who strangely disappeared from his home at King's Mountain, near Charlotte, just 20 years ago, has returned to find his wife married to another man aud bis v children all either married or dead. Mr. Harmon has many friends and relatives, and at the time of his disap pearance was a man of considerable wealth. He is spending his time iu looking up bis old friends and acquaintances. Married In North Carolina. Rock Hill Herald, Saturday: Mr. J. T. Ferguson, of the Bend of the river, came home from Hebron, Mecklenburg county, N. C., Thursday, where he was married the night before, to Miss Nanuie, a lovable and very Hue looking young lady, a daughter of Mr. Harvey Bigham. The groom was a very happy man when he got ofF the train Thursday morning and was all smiles when a number of friends crowded arouud the couple to tender congratulations. The bride will be pleasantly remembered as an inmate of Mr. D. T. Lesslie's home for several years. Scarcity of Ueef Cuttle. V/ The scarcity of be/fcattle in York couuty has already been referred to, and dealers inform The Enquirer that this scarcity is more pronounced than they have ever known before. From the best information obtainable, the cattle are not actually scarcer thau usual ; but the proportion fit for use is smaller. Scattered about through the county there are quite a number of people w ho have for several years past been giving more atteution to cattle feeding, and while several of these have on hand a good many head, ou account of the scarcity of feed that has prevailed since last fall, the cattle are uot iu as good condition as at the present time in former years. The situation has iu it a pretty strong hint as to wnat mignt oe aeeompusneu in this line, and there ought to be those who will be able to profit by the lesson. The Snake* lire Out. If there is anything in signs, the fruit crop ought uow to be considered reason ably safe. Experience has long since shown that the peach does not know v enough to keep from budding until after all danger from frost is over. This is generally believed to be because the peach is from Persia, where there were no frosts, aud the trees have ever since been in the habit of shooting out their buds, at the slighest coaxing ol warm weather. As the result, iu this part of the country, the peach gets fooled about as often as it makes a safe hit. It got pretty badly disfigured week before last; but was not entirely killed, Of course the danger may not be entire ly over yet, as killing frosts are not unual even in April; but the snakes are reported as coming out of win'ei quarters quite freely, and as snakes art i naturally supposed to be better acI quainted with the peculiarities of I spring weather, there is good reason to i believe now that there will be peaches I to eat along with the watermelons this ' summer. i Horses for the British Army.? . In giving an accouut of the energetic . efforts that the British army is making to supply Lord Roberts with horses, the London Daily News says: * As a matter of fact, there is not a ' couutry in Europe whence horses are not being constantly shipped to South Africa direct by war office agents, who ? - i 1 i are equauy as ousy ?uu suwcniui m [ South ^frica. Quite 500 horses daily must have been shipped from these foreign shores, so the aggregate must uow be euormous. Only the other r day a casual English visitor to Trieste ( found a 5,000-ton steamer on the point . of sailing with a full cargo of Hun* ( gariau horses. He ascertained that several steamers, similarly loaded, had left during the preceding fortnight. Italy has supplied so many mules t that the war department in Rome is i actually worrying over the prospect of I a shortage of transport animals for her ! own army in the event of an emergency ; but the prices paid by British ' agents are so generous that the gov! ernment is afraid to incur the unpop> ularity which would result from any i attempt to check the golden stream. , Even Turkey has been tapped to con, siderable advantage, while the nutive Indian princes have supplied at their 1 own cost not less tbau 5,000 animals. Had all this energy been shown earlier General Roberts might now be nearer , Pretoria. Two New Postal Divisions.? ! Says a Washington dispatch of Sunday : The rural free delivery system of the postoffioe department has grown to such proportions that it has been found necessary to create two new divisions to properly handle it. An order, effective May 1, signed by the postmaster general today, establishes four divisious: The eastern division, with headquarters at New York ; middle division, headquarters at Indiauapolis, comprising Ohio and all states west to the Missouri and southern down to and iucluding Louisiana, with F. M. Dice in charge; the western df vision, headquarters at Denver, and the southern division, including 11 southern states, headquarters at Washington, with H. Conquest Clark in charge. Inhumanity to Couvictn. - - a li :11 _ ID me Aooeviue uurreopuuucuuc vfi the Greenville News there is an ex pression that is of interest at this time, in view of the effort to make certain changes at the state penitentiary. The statement reads : The Hon. William C. Mann, penitentiary director, is at home from an inspecting tour of the peuitentiary and all the camps. He says everything connected with the institution is in first rate shape, except as to the care of the convicts in their quarters at the penitentary, and their treatment there in that particular has beeu nothing short of inhuman. There is absolutely no way of heating the buildings, and in summer there is next to no ventilation for the poor unfortunates. Captain Mann says the present board will certainly remedy this trouble at once and see that the convicts do not suffer during winter and summer. He expresses surprise that there is not more consumption. Goue to Beunettavllle. Spartanburg Herald : Prof. J. C. Meares, of Cedar Springs, has gone to Bennettsville, S.
