Breazeale, Secretary Pomona Grange of this County, requests us to re? mind the sub-Oranges that the time for! making their first quarterly report for 1880 [ has expired, and that it is desirable they should make their reports as early as possi? ble. . Messrs. F. W. Wagener & Co., of Charles-1 ton, sent us by Saturday's mail a mammoth Irish potato, grown on Wardmalaw Island by Mr. J. T. Hart, a most successful potato grower. He uses the Wagener fertilizer, and makes about hundred bushels to the acre. It is rumored on our streets that the schedule of the Greenville & Columbia Railroad will be changed on Monday, so as to allow the passenger train to leave this place about an hour later in the morning and arrive about two hours earlier in the evening. The picnic to be had at Silver Brook on Saturday, under the auspices of the Baptist Sunday School, promises to be a very pleas? ant affair. Every arrangement is being made to render the occasion especially pleasant for the children, who are doubtless looking forward to it with hright anticipa? tions. Reports of the condition and prospects of j the wheat crop are not very encouraging. It has the rust badly, and many of our j fanners are disheartened, being confident the yield will be very small, while others are more hopeful, and think with contin? ued favorable weather the crop will yield ; better than is generally expected. Capt. E. J. Major, a worthy and valued citizen of Broad away township, died on Tuesday last, in the 53rd year of his age, after an illness of only four days of a dis ? ease of the liver. His remains were in? terred in the graveyard at Neal's Creek Church on Wednesday afternoon after im? pressive funeral services conducted by Rev. M. McGee. Mr. Caleb Hall, of the Storeville neigh? borhood, last week sent us the following note: "I have been feeding my sheep dur ? ing the winter season on corn. To-day I sheared three of them and got eleven and u j half pounds of wool." It is not every farmer that is so fortunate now-a-days as to have corn with which to feed sheep, bui those who are might find it profitable to follow Mr. Hall's example.

He is the pastor of the Baptist; Church at that place, is highly esteemed by the denomination in this State, and pos? sesses superior endowments as a minister of the Gospel. Should the church here be so fortunate as to secure his services, it will be a valuable acquisition to our society. At the meeting of the Greenville County Democratic Convention on Saturday, Hon. W. L. Mauldin was re-elected County Chairman, and Messrs. E. H. Fuller, J. W. Gray, A. C. Garlington, W. C. Cleveland and G. W. Sollivan delegates to the State Convention. A resolution advising against the nomination of State officers at the June Convention was passed, but in cose nomi? nations are made the delegation is pledged for Gen. Hagood for Governor. Col. Carver Randall is at present canvass? ing this County as an agent of the Ameri? can Bible Society, seeing that our people are being supplied with the Great Book. A work which tends to the cultivation of public virtue, the repression of crime and the increased activity and improvement of the country demands our interest and co? operation, as it contributes to our material advancement. It is proposed to every church in the County to make a contribu? tion at an early day to this Society by send? ing the amount contributed to the Agent to be forwarded. Let us not permit ourselves to be the beneficiaries of the parent Society, but contribute something in return for the Bibles donated to those of our poor who are unable to buy. The Board of Directors of the Savannah Valley Railroad have elected Maj. Thomas B. Lee, of this place, Chief Engineer of | their Company, and in pursuance to in? structions of the Board will at once organ? ize his corps of surveyors, and begin a pre? liminary survey of the route from this place to Dorn's Mine on next Tuesday, commencing at this end of the line. The survey will be sufficiently accurate to de tcrmine the cost of the grading, and esti? mates for both a narrow and broad gauge road will be made. Experimental surveys of all the proposed routes will be made, so that when the report is submitted to the Directors the route can be at once located, and work commenced without delay. Maj. Lee is an engineer of considerable experi? ence, and will doubtless perform bis work accurately and satisfactorily. The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Atlantic and French Broad Valley Railroad was held at.Easley on Friday last, and a full representation from all the towns and townships interested was present. The following officers of the Company were elected: President, R. E. Bowen ; Directors, D. F. Bradley, J. L. Thornley, J. R. Gos sett. W. S. Pickens, W. C. Brown, H. I. Epting, B. D. Dean, B. C. Martin ; Treasu? rer, Wm. M. Hagood; Secretary, Win. J. Kirk. Several gentlemen from the city of Greenville were present, and encouraging speeches were made by Judge Cooke and Gen. Harrison, assuring the Company that Greenville was deeply' interested in the en? terprise, and wished it great success. Chief Engineer Kirk made a creditable report of the work accomplished since the grading was commenced, showing that from the 5th to the ,30th of April an average of 43 men were kept at wark at a cost of $303.40, in? cluding salaries of guards, overseers, &c. Of this amoun t $147.80 were for provisions and $140.00 for guards. During this time, about three-fourths of a mile was graded. Capt. Kirk's management of the affairs of the Company were perfectly satisfactory to all parties concerned. He is pushing things with a vim, and is confident the grading of the entire line can be done for $G00 per mile. Mr. Clyde, the recent purchaser of the Greenville & Columbia Railroad, was present, and treated the delegates to an ex? cellent dinner. The May Party at Townvllle. Townville, May 8th. Several hundred people witnessed the May Party at the Academy last evening, and the verdict of all is that it was a most brilliant and enjoyable occasion. The cor? onation scene was enacted on a beautifully carpeted and festooned stage in front of the Academy, and the assemblage listened at? tentively to the rendition of the entire pro? gramme. The fair young Queen, Miss Sallie A. McCarley, elected to that regal honor by her school-mates, acted her part with much grace, eliciting encomiums from all. Mas? ter Eddie Sitton, the Queen's Herald, proved himself quite equal to the occasion, and Miss Sallie Woolbright as 1st Maid of Honor, Miss Kate Simpson as 2nd Maid of Honor, Miss Mattie McCarley as Spring, Miss Dora Gain es as Summer, Miss Mattie Harbin as Autumn, Miss Anna Hunter as Winter, Miss Hattie Suttles as Faith, Miss Mary Tribble as Hope, Miss Carrie Brown as Charity, and Miss Gussie Sitton as Gipsy Fortune Teller, acted the parts assigned them almost faultlessly, and each received much praise from the delighted audience. A number of little flower girls also deserve mention for their attractiveness upon the stage. The very excellent music rendered by Mrs. Clara Hewitt and Miss Fannie Ham? mond, as organists, and Dr. J. B. Brown, as violinist, was a most enjoyable teatureof the occasion. ,And it is but just to add that the incep? tion of the May Party is due to Mrs, Dr. J. B. Brown, and that its complete success is attributable to her untiring labors and supe? rior taste and skill. To give a lively and appropriate "finish up" to the coronation, a dance, participated in by nearly all the young people, was had in the Academy, but 12 o'clock midnight found everybody dreaming sweetly of the happy accompE'jhment of Townville's first May Party.

Hester, was appointed to select and purchase implements, tools and general outfit of equipments and supplies for the Engineer Corps, and on motion of Major Whitner it was ordered that three of the committee constitute a quorum. Maj. Whitner proposed Mr. W. S. Ligon, of Anderson, for the office of Treasurer, and he was unanimously elected. Tbe question of what per cent, should be paid the officers who c ollect the subscrip? tion taxes was discussed at some length, and it was finally directed that the Presi? dent should obtain information in regard to the matter and make satisfactory arrange? ments. Remarks of encouragement and urging prompt aud energetic action were made by Gen. Humphreys, Capt. Hester and Capt. Barnes. On motion of Col. Norris, Messrs. Hum? phreys, Whitner and Watson were appoint? ed a committee to arrange and fix the salary of the Treasurer until the next annual meeting in November, and on further mo? tion the same committee was charged with the duty of attending to the execution of the Treasurer's bond. The President urged the individual mem? bers of the Board to encourage the people all along the line to pay promptly the rail? road taxes, in order that the work might be commenced as soon as possible, whether it was to be carried out with hired or convict labor, after which the meeting adjourned.
