Mrs. Holland Hopkins, with her sister Miss Pease, both of Minneapolis, Minn., have rented the small cottage lately occupied by Mr. Chas Stewart, on tha southern side of the Town and will spend the Season in Aiken The entertainment by’ the Cora Van Tassell troupe, advertised for last evening, was postponed on account of the very bad weather. Many persons were disappointed as there was a promise of a good attendance. Mr. H. M. Dibble exhibited at the Farmers Institute on Thursday the largest turnips that have ever*been raised around Aiken. They were of the Yellow Aberdeen variety, and had been grown on land that had al ready, this year, produced 20 tons of ensilage per acre. The travel 011 the railways south wards for the past week, or ten days, has been remarkable, and much in excess of the same period in any’ pre vious year. The people are returning to Florida ami many of them pass through Augusta in order to hava a look at the Exposition. The railway men anticipate an unprecedented southern travel this season. uvoninv next the, Aiken Club will give a reception- 011 the occasion of the formal opening of the rooms. A handsome supper will be provided, and dancing will be in dulged in b.v the younger members in one of the rooms just finished by Mr. Beckman. A most enjoyable evening is anticipated by the members and their guests. The appointment of the Rev. R. H. Jones to the Pastorate of the Metho dist Church of Aiken, has given much satisfaction. Mr. Jones is well known here, and has many friends. He was stationed here in 1878, and married a lady of this place. Rev. W. M. Duncan, as will be seen by the list of appointments lias been sent to Winnsboro, an excellent place. Tiiis evening the Cora Van Tassel Troupe, with Edwin Young, is adver tised to act, at the Lyceum Hall, the great play entitled “Leah, the Forsa ken,” and to-morrow evening the grand tour-net Irish comedy-drama, “Saved by a Dream,” with a farce- comedy by Uncle Joshua Whitcomb.

Parrott died ou Tues day last at his residence in Aiken, after a long and distressing illness.

The new lecturu, which was pre sented to St. Thaddeus Church by Mrs. Henry E. Pel lew, has arrived, and was used for the first time on £unda>’. It is of black walnut, of a handsome model, and is a great ad dition to tiie furniture of the church. Sad Bereavement. James T. Aldrich, the young son of Mr. and Mrs. James Aldrich, died on Tuesday night after a short illness of cerebrospinal meningitis. His funer al services were performed at St Thaddeus Church on Thursday at noon, and he was laid to rest in the cemetery of the church, He was an ouly son, anil although a little boy, was very highly esteemed by his as sociates and by those elder persons with whom he was thrown. A Pleasure Lmke. Mr. Henry C. Robinson has built a dam across the branch that runs through his farm two miles west of Aiken for the purpo.je of forming u pleasure lake. He has also given out the contract for the erection of a pa vilion which is to be used by pleasure parties for dancing purposes, or for entertainments of any kind. Mr. J A Cunter has the contract lor the erection of the building. We under stand it is Mr. Robinson’s intention is to mak this quite an attractive re sort for visitors. Closed by the Mortgagees. The doors of the store and barroom of Mr. C. H. Ludekins, Jr., were closed on Saturday afternoon by Mr. C. Klatte, acting us agent of the mort gagees. We learn that there are three mortgages on the stock of goods, one for about $987 to Herman Klatte, and one for $300 to C. F. Nuuberger, both dated 16th November, and one for $545 toF. W. Wagener & Co., dated 7th December. Mr C. Klatte acted as agent for all the mortgagees. Mr Ludekins’ business lias not been profi table for some time past, and there fore it was considered best to bring matters to a close. Notes Lost.

M Dibble Esq., at his * dairy farm, “Vale of Montmorenci,” about seven miles from Aiken, on Friday last. A couple of hours before dinner were spent in walking about the farm and inspect ing tiie herd of Jerseys, the dairy, silos, etc. He has now twenty-nine thoroughbred Jersey cows, and lias just purchased, from the Springhill Farm in Tennessee, seven more, which will be here in a few days, and make a herd of thirty-six cows, besides one handsome bull and a number of young stock. Of the twenty-nine, thirteen are being milked at tiie present time, and all are as handsome specimens of their kind as can bo found anywhere. The dairy house is of stone, through which Hows a constant stream of cool water, and in the house are two of “Stoddard’s Patent Creameries,’, which contain fourteen cans of milk, each wholly surrounded by cool water. All of the arrangements for butter making are of tiie most complete character, and well worthy of an ex- examination by all who are interested in tiie subject. Mr Dibble finds tiie demand for his butter greater than the supply; and lie readily obtains fwrty cents per pound for all he can make.

Tiie agent of the World offered to write a two- column article about Aiken, with il lustrations, and have it published one time for $6<i0. In addition to the $300 appropriated by Council, it was stated that $50 had been promised by thu mum of expense. There are five silos, into which he stored five hundred tons of ensilage last summer.
