AVilliam \ 7 ales, an aged and worthy citizen who had oeen employed as night watchman by the Augusta and Summerville Street Railroad Compa ny for twelve years, was horribly murdered at Augusta last Thursday night. He was knocked in the head with a pick-axe, his clothing saturated with kerosense oil, and then set on lire. The object was theft. Thirty- eight dollars and fifty cents was stolen from the cash drawer of the company. The deceased was over sixty years of age and leaves a family of sons and daughters to morn his loss. The mur derer is not known, but several arrests have been made. Annual Election of the Palmcttocs.

AVe have had no storm in the vicin ity of Aiken, though a considerable amount of rain fell during Thursday and Friday, not enough however, to occasion any material damage to cot ton but of great benefit to other grow ing crops. The Croft Block, consisting of three commodious two-story brick build ings, are expected to be completed by October 1st. Their iron fronts and plate-glass windows will prove an el egant addition to the architecture of ceet, which we hope others All church or Sunday-school organ izations and temperance societies who have elected delegates to the Prohibi tion convention which will convene in Aiken on the 15th of October, are requested to forward full lists of the same to this oflice as soon as conve nient.

Editor Aiken Recorder: It is exceedingly gratifying to find published in The Recorder a call Cooke’s Clothing and Hat Store. This old and thoroughly reliable es tablishment, under the experienced management of Mr. A. AV. Blanch ard, again comes to its old friend, The Aikex Recorder, to remind the cit izens of Aiken and the surrounding country that they hftvo as usual the largest and finest stock of men’s, youths’ and boys’ suits, overcoats, shirts, underwear, neck-wear, hats, &c., to be found in Augusta. Every thing purchased from this house will be found precisely as repiesented, and their prices are as reasonable as any other house in the market. Courteous and experienced salesmen will afford the patrons of this establishment val uable assistance in making their se lections and in ensuring a fit. See advertisement in another column and don’t forget that Cooke’s clothing store at 711 Broad St., Augusta, Ga., is the place to get your money back. for a Temperance or Prohibition con vention for the County of Aiken, to bo held in your beautiful town on the 15th of October. This grand move, numerously signed by the good citi zens of the County, argues favorably for tlxe future of our people. It is needless here to argue on the great evil of the traffic in intoxicants. May we not fondly hope that the good peo ple of Aiken County will rally en masse on this occasion! Come, fellow- citizens, come to tiie rescue. Let it be said and known that our people are determined, with the help of God, to nut down this infamous traffic and wipe out the stain of intemperance which, to say tiie least, is depleting the purses and jeopardizing the souls of men. Truly, J. J. Meyer. Cuthbert not only braved the inclem ent weather to fulfill this engagement, but actually left his wife, who had been seriously ill for several days un der the persona! ministrations of Dr. B. F. AVyman, in order that the great cause might sufler-no detriment at his hands by a failure to perform his whole duty. It is by such acts of self- abnegation and invincible determina tion that the cause of Prohibition will ultimately obtain its triumphant cou- to stop l summation and evoke the blessings j of future generations upon the heads | of those who, despising the pitiful in sults and coarse vulgarity of those who essayed to obstruct their progress, yet pressed steadily forward through the waves of passion and prejudice, until the protection of the law was torn down from the accursed traffic that poisons the fountains of peace and happiness, saps the foundations af society, tyrannizes over our people in tho administration of the govern ment, and fills our jails and peniten tiaries with ninety per cent, of their unfortunate inmates. After Mr. Cuthbert’s eloquent lec ture, Col. Drayton, by request, filled ou# the remaining time with an ad dress of twenty minutes, touching briefly upon the importance of rein forcing moral suasion by statutory en actment, and reporting some inter esting facts in connection with the progress of the work in Aiken Countv. Though this meeting was small, it was very encouraging from tiie tact that it was actually wonderful that there should have been any meeting at all in the face of such an equinoc tial flood, and it goes far to emphasize the determination and strength of purpose which animates the temper ance people of Aiken County. The meeting was dismissed with the benediction by the Rev. Mr. Patter son, and Messrs. Cuthbert and Dray ton returned to Aiken by the 10.20 p. in. train, and the Granitevillo delega tion drove homeward in their wagons, cheering to the echo, in spite of the rain ami darkness.

Lebeschultz will leave to day or to-morrow for New York, where he will purchase a large ana choice stock of clothing, underwear, hats, &c., for the Aiken market. Mr. Lebeschultz removed from Edgefield to Aiken several months ago, where he has made many friends and where lie will no doubt succeed in building up an excellent trade. The Rev. John R. Dow, the venera ble but energetic evangelist of the Charleston Presbytery, returned to Aiken on Friday last after an absence of several weeks, much improved in health though not entirely recovered from his recent illness. On AVednes day next he will leave on another tour of duty, commencing with his atten dance on the Btate Bunday-school Convention at Columbia. Yesterday Monday, the 15th of September, marked the expiration of the term of office of IntenBant J. N.* AVigfall and the old Council, who have served tho town for the past year. At a meeting held at the oflice of Mr.AV.Q. Davis, the new lutcndaut and the new Council were duly installed and en tered upon their duties. In tiie afternoon a meeting was held and James AVingard and William Blackburn were elected Town Mar shalls. AVe are glad to hear that Intendant Davis and tho now Council propose soon to carry out some of the sanitary suggestions recently advanced in the editorial columns of Thm Recorder. AA T e leurn that a scavengsrs cart is to be provided and many other wise steps taken looking towards the health of the town. Nothing of more impor tance can engage the attention of our municipal authorities than the estab lishment of wise measures of sanitary precaution. Fleming & Loiling, Broad Street, Augusta. Ga. Read the handsome double column advertisement of that reliable and en terprising firm, Fleming A Loilin, of Broad St., Augusta, Ga. Those gen tlemen are the leaders of the choice retail family grocery trade of Au gusta. Their stock Is as extensive as their prices are reasonable. They deal in nothing but the best, as they aim for a first-class family trade. There is no conceivable article in the grocery line that you cannot find in their store, and their thorough relia bility makes it a pleasure for ladles and house-keepers generally to deal with them. They advertised with The Recorder last season and as a natu ral consequence they have secured a choice and large share of the Aiken trade. Appreciating the advantages derived from this source, they have again spread their honorable firm name in our columns and we feel satis fied that this simple reminder will make the store of Fleming A Lofiin, 84S and 850 Broad Btreet, Augusta, Ga., a grand rallying point for board- iug-house-keepers and private fami lies to provide themselves with tiie best of everything in the grocery line. The Address of the State Democratic Committee, Alter Being Boiled Down. The following is from the pen of a prominent lawyer of Barnwell Coun ty, who writes as follows: AVlLlJSTON, S. C., Bept. 9,1884. Editor Aiken Recorder: On reading the address of tho State Democratic Committee, I was struck like you with its diffuseness. I said to iny clerk, “Boil it down, my son, boll it down, that I may get the sa lient ideas out of the gush;” and he boiled it down. I enclose you the de coction. Feelow-Citizens—A struggle of far-reaching importance is now in progress, by which the collective mor ality of the American people will be measured and their fitness to govern themselves with wisdom be judged.

The best wine In the country, that received the highest premium at the Centennial, is Speer’s Port Grape AVine, which has become a celebrated product of New Jersey. This .wine and his P. J. Brandy are used by phy sicians everywhere, ^ho rely upon them as the purest to be had. It is ti nsurpasser^fr^yeakly females aud poisoning proceeding from Republican rule; on the other, a candidate whose established official integrity and in flexible courage iu resisting part}' pressure and party spoliation, clearly marks him out to the Democracy of this country as the best exponent of tiie highest principles for which that party has contended in the adminis tration of the national government. AVe do not deem it necessary to enumerate the unblushing frauds, the gross official peculation, and the many instances of tyrannical exercise of power which have characterized and still do characterize the Republican government in all its ramifications. It is sufficient to say that, rendered reckless by a long lease of misused power, the machine-made delegates in the Republican Convention have chosen as their party's candidate for President a man who attracts to him, as with a magnet, each official rogue and hungry knave, and who draws unto him, as like unto like, every po litical plunderer who craves the means of peculation in the future, or who needs immunity for misconduct in the past. So it is that in the persons of the leading candidates, Cleveland and Hendricks, good and evil will struggle for the mastery in November. Thoughtful and high-minded Re publicans in every State now pledge their votes to Cleveland, because he is the embodiment of governmental pu rity and efficiency; these qualities, in their appreciation, stand higher than party ties. As you value rectitude and efficien cy in* the servants of the people, as you prize the general welfare and the honor of the American name, so must you, in the coming election, zealously and unflinchingly do your whole duty. In other words, while all good Repub licans are abandoning their party for very shame sake, it well becomes you to rally around and uphold that ban ner, under whose folds these devoted patriots have taken shelter.
