The election passed off quietly at ull the polls in the County, and, as rill he seen, an unusually large vote vas polled. The following was the : esult, as officially declared: iheppard Delegates 9S6 "illman Delegates 1863 ToUd 2849 Majority for Tillman 877 For Congress.

Dave H W4se 2735 For Prohibition 1208 Against Prohibition 991 Under the rules of the party, a can didate to receive the nomination must receive a majority' of the votes cast for the office for which he runs. In the election of Tuesday no one re ceived the nomination for Treasurer, Coroner, or School Commissioner, and only tw'o candidates that for County Commissioner. Therefore another election will be held on Tues day, the 13th to decide between Messrs. W. E. Arthur and Wm Foley for County Commissioner; Messrs. W. W. Plunket and J. P. Couch for Cor- letLI Messrs. G. L. Tocle and L. W. Williams for School Commissioner; and Messrs. F. W. W essels, and C. H. George for Treasurer. It is possible that another election may also have to be orderd for Con gressman ; but this can not be decided until the official reports are made from the other counties in the Second district. Extension of the South Round Road. From The State. When the South Florida and Penin sular Railroad leased the South Bound Railroad a short time ago, part of the contract for that lease called for the building of a new line of road direct from Savannah to Jacksonville, ma- kihK it virtually an extension of the 8outh Bound to Flotida. The lessees of the South Bound have engaged the services of Major Thomas B. Lee of Columbia, an emi nent civil engineer, to make a thor ough survey for the new route as soon as possible. Major Lee, with his assistants, will doubtless begin operations at once, and will push it forward as rapidly as it can be done. He has had large ex perience in railroad building and sur veying, and in hands so capable the work will be well and quickly done. This new route from Savannah to Jacksonville, in connection with the South Bound, it is said will lessen the distance from New York to Florida from eighty to ninety miles, and will make it the great highway for travel between the two sections. On Wednesday a public meeting of the citizens was held in the Town Hall to take public notice of the death of their late distinguished fel low-citizen. Dr. T. G. Croft presided, and Mr. A. P. Ford acted as secretary. Mr. Gee. W. Croft made a few elo quent remarks, calling attention to Dr. Geddings’ high character, unusual literary attainments, and usefulness as a citizen, and offered the following resolutions, which were seconded by Mr. E. P. Henderson and passed unanimously: Resolved, That in the death of Dr. William H. Geddings the city of Ai ken has lost one of its most public spirited and useful citizens, the medi cal profession one of ' their most learned and brightest members, so ciety a pure and noble man, and the State of South Carolina one of her most distinguished sons. Resolved, That as citizens of Aiken we especially recognize the devoted interest which Dr. Geddings has al ways shown in the prosperity of the city, his liberal and cheerful support to*all public enterprises; that this community heard of the sad news of his death with great sorrow, and shall long mouru his loss as a calamity to the city. Resolved, That we extend to the bereaved widow and family of Dr. Geddings our sincere sympathy in their grief and sorrow; that resolutions be printed in the Aiken papers, and a copy of the same be sent to Mrs. Geddings by the chair man of this meeting. Excursion to Augusta. LOCAL BREVITIES. has returned The committee on arrangements for the excursion to be given by the Rail road Benevolent and Assistance As sociation to Augusta have just issued handsome handbills and posters set ting forth the attractions which they propose to offer their guests. The ex cursion will be run under the auspices of the association, trains having been secured over the following lines: the South Carolina Railway, Carolina, Cumberland Gap and Chicago, Char leston, Cincinnati and Chicago, and Charleston, Sumter and Northern roads. The fare for the round trip from Columbia, Charleston, Camden and between these points and Branch- ville, inclusive, will be $1.50; from stations betw’een Edgefield and Crofts 75 cents; from stations between Ai ken and Bath 50 cents. Tickets will be good on regular trains September 14, and good returning on regular trains September 15 and 16. Augusta is preparing to receive her guests in a royal manner. A com mittee composed of some of the most prominent men of that city have the matter in hand and have arranged to make the trip of the several thousand South Carolinians to Augusta a gala occasion. Music, parades by the mi litia and firemen, ball-playing, foot racing and other athletic sports are numbered among the events on the programme for the amusement of the excursionists. Rev. Lucius Cuthbert. The Rev, Lucius Cuthbert preached in the Presbyterian church last Sun day morning. He said it was the first time in seven months. He will go to Charleston tomorrow, where he will take temporary charge of the Citadel Square Baptist Church, during the month of September (the interval be tween the outgoing of the old paster and the incoming of the new). On the first of October he will take per manent charge of the old First Bap tist Church of Charleston. Thus it will be seen that after a forced silence of seven months on ac count of his health, he has again gone on duty, and as he said on Sun day during his sermon, he intended during the remaining days of his life to strive harder than ever before in winning souls for Christ. While Mr. Cuthbert’s field of labor will be in a distant city he does not intend to break up his home in Aiken, which will be good news to his many friends here. Entrance Examinations Institute. of the Aiken A LITTLE GIRL’S EXPERIENCE IN A LIGHT HOUSE. Mr and Mrs Tx)reu Trescott are keepers of the Gov Lighthouse at Sand Beach, Mich, and are blessed with a daughter four years old. Last April she was taken down with meas les, followed w’ith a dreadful cough and turning into fever. Doctors at home and in Detroit treated her, 'but in vain; she grew worse rapidly, un til she was a mere ‘‘handful of bones.” Then she tried Dr. King’s New Dis covery. and after the use of two and a half bottles, was completely cured. They say Dr King’s New Discovery is worth its weight in gold, yet you may get a trial bottle free at W. J. Platt’s Drugstore. ' STRENGTH AND HEALTH.

Turner is suffering greatly from neuralgia in his eyes, and has to remain closely in a dark room. In addition to his other bad health, this is a very serious affliction. The South Carolina Railroad car ried down five car-loads of excur sionists to Sullivan’s Island last Sun day. There was not room enough for alf the passengers aboard, and many had to stand up in the aisles going and coming. Miss Retta E. Dow is expected to return today from Warrenton Va., where she has spent a month very de lightfully, with kind friends. During her absence from Aiken, she was able to visit the city of Washington, and many other interesting places.

The Orangeburg Times says: We have made diligent inquiry concern ing the cotton crop in Orangeburg County, and we are satisfied that the crop is at least 25 per cent, short this year as compared with last j-ear. The recent rains have done a great deal of damage to the crop, and the above es timate is a fair one. Sugar Going Up. Sugar is on the jump-^H advanced 3-16 cent per pound yesterday, mak ing a full advance of ?4 cent in the 1 past weeks. Even raw sugars are higher. Some people are inclined to blame the combine for it but it ap pears that there is good and sufficient cause. The principal reason is the enormous demand /or sugars. It is not because the people are consum ing any more saccharine matter in tea or coffee, but because there was a very large fruit crop produced this summer, which, of course, was dis posed of cheap. It is believed that every other housewife in the land went into the preserving business. So that the large surplus stock of sugai in the early summer has melted away and the Trust is now hardly able*to meet the demands upon it for stock, while the-supplies of raw sug ar are also at a low ebb. The moral ot it is that a poor fruit crop means cheap sugar aud a large fruit crop very dear sugar. Charleston's Quarantine. Surgeon General Wyman of the Marine Hospital service in Washing ton was asked Saturday if be enter tained any fears «*f cholera being in troduced into this country by way of Charleston. In lepiy he said that Charleston has one of the best equip ped quarantine stations in the United States, which is in charge of very ef ficient officers. The Marine Hospital also has representi^tives there, so that no danger is feared, at that point. The excellent facilities *t Charleston were provided for by tae State of South Carolina to preven; the introduction of yellow fever ii Charleston aud contiguous points, which sometimes come up from Sontp America and the West Indies. , The health and Iae quarantine offi cers at Charleston lave been directed to use the utmost diligence in dealing with immigrants coming from the cholera stricken d stricts of Europe. \ Dibble’s Opinion. i- From The Columbia Register. Hon. Samuel Di>ble in a private conversation yesterway gave his opin ion as to the outcojue of the present struggle aud victory of Tillman’s. He says that two years’ from now the is sue iu South Carolina will be com pletely changed, and that a new con dition* will have am3ii that will ulti mately cause the defeat of the farm ers’ movement. He said that wheu, the leaders were all ensconsed in fat official berths, they would cease the agitation, and by a natural course of events the Conservative faction would again get iu the saddle.
