Pickle of Florida, Messrs. Frank Pickle and Thad deus Horton from Greenville, Miss Carrie Shell of Laurens, with many others, find our Spring Park delightfully cool and pleasant. The croquet grounds, the base ball grounds, the hammocks, the rustic seats, the densely shaded walks, the ele? vated grounds around the health-giving fountain of cool water, lying just under the eaves of our flourishing College, and but a few steps from the dopot, is enough to attract the eye of a weary, care-worn overheated soul hunting for rest. Let all come who can ; they will find peace, quiet, contentment, love aud good will to all mankind throughout our little town. Mr. Horace Horton has charge of the Depot now, and will fill his. place well. All who know Horace can speak for his industrious habits, honesty, truthfulness, piety and soberness in every sense of the word. We can, indeed, congratulate our? selves on having him for a depot agent, and will give to his most excellent wife and beautiful little daughter a hearty wel? come back to our town. Mrs. Thomas Anderson is visiting rela? tives in Asheville, N. C. Also, Mr. Coffin and family, of Pelzer, have gone on a trip to the mountains. A new drug store will soon bo completed and put in operation in Pelzer, very near the one which has for some time been carried on successfully by Mr. Baxter Carpenter. His soda fountain, with its cooling, delightful drinks, is a place of attraction to the numerous hot and tired laborers wending their way home from the Mill as the "evening shades appear." Mrs. N. A. Williams and daughter, Miss Minnie, have taken leave of their old home and gone to seek for themselves new scenes and friends in the old "North State." Miss Sallie Donnald is spending the Summer with friends in Hartwell, Ca. Hope she will not be persuaded to desert us for life. We were saddened by two deaths iu our village the last few days. The infant son of Rev. W. Hyott died of cholera infan? tum. Little Western was a bright and beautiful child of two summers?the joy and pride of the household, but now a little spirit in that land beyond the skies. The death of Mrs. Bob Hodges is much to be regretted. Her aged and devoted husband is widely known throughout this and Abbeville County as a cheerful, Christian-hearted gentleman of tho high? est type. May the Lord speak peace to his troubled soul. We welcomo back into our midst Mrs. Mauldin and two daughters. They two are sadly bereaved, but have the sweet comfort of knowing they can meet their loved ones again. A. P. N. We want to reduce our large stock Dry Goods,' Notions, shoes and Hats before going North the latter part August, and we invite everybody to come and look at our goods and new prices.

Euitoi: : lu your valuable paper you publish on the 21st July a communi? cation signed "S," lo the purport llint gen? tlemen high in official authority?church and municipal?or if not so, wishing tu be so, are playing a two-sided game. Now, Mr. Editor, in my opinion, the people would like to know something about these things, because the moral and religious ele? ment of no community can afford to sup? port a gentleman for office who does not give the office hiH moral support in every? day life ; and a man holding high position in. church docs not entitle him to the confi? dence and suffrage of the people if he visits bar-rooms and engages in dram-drinking, however lightly the church to v.uich he belongs may regard his deportment. And, sir, if true, as has been stated, that any gentlemen filling these positions, or wish? ing to do so, do participate at hot suppers with the colored people in a hilarious man? ner, iu order to gain votes, the moral ele? ment cannot sanction or approve it, be? cause it would have the tendency to influ? ence the colored people, and lead them in a channel not calculated to be of benefit to the cause of reform. Be it said to the cred? it of the colored people, a great majority of them are not to be caught that way. Another reason is, that no man can serve two lines of principles at the same time to the interest of both. One other and more potent reason is, that Holy Writ says no man can serve both God and mammon. Mr. Editor, election time being close at hand, we believe the people want to be fully informed on these questions. The cause of prohibition is rapidly nearing the great conquest, and we, as a moral and re? ligious people, in this day of enlightened progress, cannot afford to be misled for the want of proper information in regard to the policy of our leaders. So let us have the facts, or a "dark horse." Enquirer. A Wonderful Discovery.
