Here's some advice about kissing, par?
ticularly applicable to a young lover who
has not had much experience:
"If yon want to kiss her neatly,
Kiss her sweetly
And completely;
If you want to kiss her so as to kiss her
nice,
Just pretend you're going to kiss her,
Make a dodge or two ana miss her,
Then smack her on the kisser once or
twice."
Nobody is satisfied in this world. If a
legacy is left a man, he regrets that it is
not larger. If he finds a- sum of money,
he searches around for more. If he is
elected to some high office, he wishes for
a better one. If he is rich and- wants for
nothing, he strives for more wealth. If
he is single man, he is looking for a wife;
and if married, for children. Of these
latter blessings some men have too many,
some too few, some none at all. Man is
never satisfied.
An organization of the Fire Company
was effected in Temperance Hall last Fri?
day evening by the election of the fol?
lowing officers: Chief, Jas. M. Catbcart;
Assistant Chief, John O'Donnell; First
Director, D. S. Taylor; Second Director,
Foster Fant; Secretary and Treasurer, D*
Prue Sloan; Solicitor, C. H. Orr; Sur?
geon, S. M. Orr; Engineer, C. C. Cum
mings; Assistant Engineer. Ham Os
borne- The organization will be known
as the "Pioneer Fire Company." A com?
mittee was appointed to draft a Constitu?
tion and By-Laws for the government of
the Company, with instructions to report
at an adjourned meeting to be held to?
morrow (Friday) evening. The Compa?
ny has about sixty active members. A
good selection of officers has been made,
and under their guidance the "Pioneer"
will soon rank among the best Fire Com?
panies of the State.
Ben Copeland, a colored boy, was com?
mitted to jail last Friday charged with
an assault' and battery and attempting to
outrage the person of a little 11-year old
whito girl in Brushy Creek township.
The little girl was attacked by the vil
lian while she was picking blackberries
some distance from her home. On Sat?
urday Felix Sloan, colored, charged with
attempting to commit a similar crime
upon the person of a little colored girl, in
Centerville township, was also committed
to jail. This makes three negroes who
have been committed to jail within the
last two or three weeks charged with the
same crime. We believe in letting the
law take its course, but these crimes are
getting too common, and we think Judge
Lynch could exert a wholesome influ?
ence were he to assume jurisdiction of
all these cases where the proof of the
crime is clear. This class of cases should
never reach the Court House unless there
be some doubt as to the guilt of the party
charged.
Capt. Alexander Tunstall, Supervisor
3rd Division C. & G. R. R,, died suddenly
at Belton of heart disease on Tuesday
morning, 8th inst., at, it is supposed,
about 4 o'clock. He was found on the
floor of his room about o o'clock, still
warm. It is supposed that he was iu the
act of dressing himself when the disease
made its attack. W. P. Cox, Trial Jus?
tice, summoned a jury of inquest, and a
verdict in accordance with the above facts
was rendered. His remains were for?
warded on Tuesday evening to bis home
at Amelia C. H., Va., where he has a de?
voted wife and children to mourn his
death: Capt. Tunstall was a favorite with
all whose fortune it was to have made his
acquaintance, and was said by many to
be the most accommodating gentleman
they ever knew. He was highly esteem?
ed by the officers and employees of the
C. & G. R. R. The deceased had made
Belton his headquarters, with a slight
exception, for about three years, and,
though dead, his kindness, generosity
and strict integrity will long live in the
hearts of the people of that town.
A Serious Accident.
On last Monday evening Col. M. P.
Tribble and -wife met with a most unfor?
tunate and serious accident. They had
just arrived' at the Baptist Church to at?
tend the meeting then in progress, and
Col. Tribble, intending to hitch his horse,
which was a very gentle and trusted ani?
mal, removed the bridle to put on a halt?
er without taking him out of the buggy.
From some slight cause the horse became
frightened and ran away, upsetting the
buggy and tearing loose, after striking
with terrible force at least two times
against the Church. ??
Mrs. Tribble, who was in the buggy,
was thrown to the ground in getting out,
and sustained one or two bruises about
the head which were not serious, but Col.
Tribble, in trying to hold the horse, was
knocked down and sustained two or more
severe blows on the forehead and right
side of the head, which knocked him
senseless. He was taken-to Rev. T. P.
Bell's residence and several doctors im?
mediately summoned. His injuries were
found to be very severe and dangerous,
and he has been too ill yet to be removed.
At this time (Thursday morning) he is
thought to be a little better, and it is
hoped he will rapidly improve, though
there is still danger of inflammation of
the brain. Col. Tribble has a host of
friends who are very solicitous as to
his condition, and anxiously hope that
bis improvement will be rapid.

A Visit to Hurt-Troll, Gn.
Mr. Editor : Allow me space in your
columns to mention a few of the pleas?
ures of a recent visit to Hartwell, Ga.
In company with H. G. Scudday, Esq.,
I left Anderson on the 1st inst. with the
intention of arriving at our. destination
early in the eve. Soon we were on the
banks of Taylor's Creek, (5 miles west of
Anderson,) and owing to the frequent
rains the stream was very much swolen.
We were advised by a boy not to attempt
to cross, as it would be very dangerous.
My companion suggested that we return
to town and take a different route; but
as I never liked to make a cross mark in,
the road and spit in it, I told him if he
would unhitch the horse from the buggy
I would mount and try the creek. The
horse was soon out of harness, and the
rider in position. The creek was not as
deep as it appeared, and by careful driv?
ing we were able to cross. So much for
having an equestrian along.
As we pursued our course we were im?
pressed with the beautiful fields of grain,
corn and cotton, which appealed to us as
doing finely. But there had been too
much rain, and the grass was making
headway.
We crossed Savannah River about ? p.
m., and an hour's drive brought us to the
beautiful town of Hartwell. We were
placed into the bands of Capt J. F. Craft,
who was to be guardian during our stay.
The object of our visit was to attend the
Commencement Exercises of "Hartwell
High School." After refreshments we
wended our way to the Court House,
where the exercises were to be held. The
court-room was packed,: jammed and
crammed. My companion secured a
chair, and after some time I got a reserved
seat on the mantelpiece, in the back of the
room. The exercises consisted of cha?
rades, extracts, songs and calisthenics.
Littlo Mamie Craft, 13i years old, afforded'
the audience much amusement when she
appeared as "Visit to Grandma," and she
certainly deserved the cheers she received.
The calisthenics closed the exercises for
the eve. About forty young ladies and
girls appeared on the stage in uniforms
(white dresses with red stripes,) and they
were beautiful. The calisthenics class
was taught by Mrs. Crawley, and though
they had only been instructed about three
months they received thorough training,
and the different inanuvres were execu?
ted in soldier like manner. This exercise
is very healthful, and should be taught in
all our schools.
Wednesday dawned bright and warm,
but now and then a cloud would hover
over the town, and as this was the last
and big day anxious eyes would watch
the manuvros of the hoarers. By 9 a. m.
crowds were seen wending their way to
the Court House. The morning program
consisted of examinations, <kc, and at 11
a. m. H. G. Scudday (the orator of the
occasion,) was to speak. At the appoint?
ed hour Mr. S. was escorted to the stage
and introduced to the audieuce. The
audience was equally as large as the eve
before?not even standing room'to be had
?and was composed of men, women and
children. Some good mothers brought
their babes, and of course, to make the
I commencement a success, they would
give vent to a few notes occasionally.
Bless the little tiny things, how could we
spare them on such occasions ?
Mr. Scudday urged the importance of
an education and. discussed the Blair
Educational Bill with great force. He
seemed to be rapt up in his subject and
held the audience spell bound for 50
minutes. I must say I nover saw a more
attentive audience and better behaved
people in my life. The address was well
received and heartily applauded. At 3
p. m. the Court House was again packed
to hear the recitation by the young ladies.
A prize bad been offered for the best
delivered recitation, and Miss Flora
Craft carried off the honors, but she had
strong competitors. Wednesday eve was
devoted to charades, &c., and the audience
gave each play a hearty applause. The
calisthenic class sang a farewell song
which was very touching, and then the
?commencement of the Hartwell High
School was a thing of the past, but an
occasion never to be forgotten by those
who had the good fortune of being pres?
ent. In conclusion, I must confess that
I was charmed with Hartwell and her
kind, generous and sociable people. The
people of Hart County should be proud
of Prof. Parker and his assistants. I
hope ere long to hear of the "Hartwell
College" in reality. Let the big headed
men of Hartwell put their heads together
and go to work in earnest.
Thursday morn about 5 o'clock we
turned our faces homeward. We arrived
at Mao Holland's in time for breakfast.
Mac is keeping bouse by himself, and
knows how to cook. He informed us that
he had no book, but would get up a
breakfast if we could swallow hia cooking.
We agreed to swallow, and in 30 minutes
we were doing justice to our appetites.
Six miles before breakfast will give any?
body an appetite. Mac Holland is all
right, and some good girl will find it out
some of these days. We arrived home in
time for dinner, and did not regret our
trip to Georgia. F. F.

THE VAN WINKLE FEEDER AND CONDENSER can be attached to any other
Gin, so parties having otber make of Gins and wishing Feeders or Condensers
can be supplied by sending in their order in time, and I will guarantee satisfaction.

Tan Winkle King Cotton Press
Has long been before the*public, and is too well
known to need any further description. Its chief
points of merits are: It takes very little room, is
easily bandied, and takes so little power; can be
used on all kinds of powers?horse, water or steam.
Ginning and packing can all go on at the same
time, without interfering with the Gin. A two
inch belt will pack a 500 lb. bale of cotton. It
saves its cost the first season in labor.
Read the following Testimonial:
Anderson, S. C?Mr. John E. Peoples?Sir: The
Steam Power Van Winkle Cotton Press bought
from you last Fall has given entire satisfaction. I
packed bales of cotton weighing GC0 to 725 lbs. in
five minutes with all ease, using a 4-inch belt and
25 lbs. steam. There did not seem any more strain
on the Press tban with a 450 lb. bale. For dura?
bility, strength, lightnessof power, small quantity
of steam required, economy of space, I deem it the
King of all Cotton Presses; especially so as the low
I price at which it can be bought for puts it within
reach of every man running a steam Gin. In fact
I would not be without it for twice its cost. I
would advise all my friends to buy one of V-n Winkle's Steam Power Cotton Presses, as
you will save its cost in labor in ons year. M. A. CUBB.

THE HALL SELF-FEEDING COTTON GIN,
Manufactured at Sing Sing, N. Y., has given satisfaction wherever used. The Saws, are
made of the best imported steel. Tbe saw shaft is the largest made. An examination
of other Gins will convince you it is the most substantially built Gin in use. It never
breaks the roll, and therefore does away with the expense of the revolving head, as the
secret of making the Gin to prevent its breaking the roll is in the proper shape of the
roll-box. Every one should examine the improvements in tbe Hall Gin made this year,
especially the improvement in the Feeder. Below I give you a few names of tbose who
have purchased the Hall Gin:
