7th inst., aged g? years. Her remains
were brought to this city and interred in
the Presbyterian cemetery on Tuesday
morning, after impressive funeral servi?
ces being conducted by Rev. J. W. W?ll?
ing. Mrs. Hopkins had been siuco her

friends and relatives.
Mrs. Arminda Sullivan died at her
home in Fork Township on Wednesday
morning, 3rd inst, aged about 44 years.
Mrs. Sullivan had been in bad health for

weok before her death, when she was at?
tacked by fever, which caused her death.

Church, Rev. T. C. Ligon conducting the
funeral services. She leaves three chil?
dren and a host of friends to mourn her

Make the Orphans Hnppy.
From all over South Carolina and Geor?
gia there is gathered into tho Thornwell
Orphanage, in Clinton, S. C, an orphan
household of more than sixty, who are
being cared for as Elijah was at tho brook
Cherith. These are the wards of God's
people. If the generous hearted Chris?
tians of this and adjoining States should
withdraw their hands, all of these chil?
dren would speedily lose their opportuni?
ty of an education, and would leave tin's
quiot, happy country home, whero they
aro not only kindly cared for, but also
taught useful manual arts and given an
excellent common school education.
uIt is a good tiling to givo thanks unto
the Lord." But the Lord himself tells us
that tho most acceptable thanksgiving to
him is to feed tho futherless and relieve
the widow. What say the readers of this
paper about adopting this method of ob?
serving Thanksgiving Day. Send a bar?
rel of flour, or a sack of corn, or a keg of
molasses, or a few dollars to the Thorn
well Orphanage, Clinton, S. C. Last year
the average of a full year's care of each
child, including board, clothing, educa?
tion and matron's attention was only
$G0 for each child, which is evidence ol
economy. What is given is well given.
This is the only Institution for orphans
in South Carolina, outside of Charleston.
Though under the caro of Presbyterians,
it is open to children of all or no denomi?
nation.

Last Monday when the up-freight train,
engineer Jones, was about three miles be?
low this place, it ran into a pile of cross
ties, which had been beeped on the tracS.
Luckily no damage was done. This is
not the first time that such a nefarious
deed as wrecking a train has been at?
tempted on this part of the Road. A per?
son who is so depraved as thus to hold
property and life ought to be ferreted out
and be punished to the utmost extent of
the law.

An End to Bone Scraping.
.Edward Shepherd, of Harrisburg, 111.,
sayB: "Having received so much benefit
from Electric Bitters, I feel it my duty to
let suffering humanity know it. Have
had a running sore on my leg for eight
years; my doctors told me I would have
to have the bone scraped or leg amputated.
I used, instead, throe bottles of Electric
Bitters and seven boxes Bucklen's Arnica
Salvo, and my leg is now sound and
well." Electric Bitters are sold at fifty

I had been troubled all Winter with cold
and pain in the chest and got no relief from
remedies reccommended by Druggists and
Physicians. At the same time I was adveB
tising Dr. Bosanko's Cough and Lung
Syrup. I had little faith but thought to
try it as a Jast resort, now I believe even
more than they tell me of its curative qual?
ities. [From the News, Elizabethtown,

"Hello, got a new sled, haven't yer?"
shouted Charlie to his chubby neighbor
across the street. "Yer jest bet I have,"
and he yanked the drag rope till the sled
passed in full view. Where'd ye get it, on
Chapel street?" "Na-aw, they only throw
in string and a piece of court plaster there;
I got this sled on State street, where they
throw in a Pomeroy's Petroline Poroused
Plaster, which is so good for Lame Back,
Rheumatism, etc." "That ain't much, it
only costs 25 cents at any druggist's." "It
don't cost much, yer bet, but it's worth it's
weight in gold." Charlie had had a sled
before, and knew just what was needed.

Tho Central Deal,
New York, November 6.?The Cen?
tral Railroad deal is as much of a myste?
ry here as it seem3 to be in Savannah and
Augusta. I lunched with a party of
gentlemen to-day who are largely inter?
ested in the stock. The recent course of
the market, the present price of the stock,
and the probable contest in the coming
election made subjects of conversation.
Every man seemed bent on learning all
he could, and telling as little as possible.
My own impression after listening atten?
tively is about to this effect: The next
President of the Central Railroad of
Georgia, is, up to date, a decidedly "un?
known quantity." Gen. Alexander's
friends says he will not run unless his
election is absolutely assured. Unless
Eositive control of all stock held here can
e secured in his interest, I do not see
how such assurance can be giverj. Mrs.
Hettie Green, with her 6,700 shares, is
said to be uncommitted as yet. She
knows the value of proxies in close
elections, and is not likely to throw hers
away. There are three or four parties
here claiming to control the stock which
has of late months come to New York.
I think the truth in regard to this is thai
each party controls some, and neither of
them all. Green & Bateman will no
doubt vote a large block, but they are
not saying openly yet who is their candi?
date. The Moses Taylor estate votes
about 4.500 shares, which will go for
Capt. Raoul. Mr. Adam Dutenhofer has
been a very large buyer of the stock since
the deal* began, and is an enthusiastic
supporter of General Alexander. How
the election will go I would not venture,
to say, but the stock will go much higher
before the squabble is over.
? The gold fever is breaking out be?
tween Glendale and Pacolet, Spartan
burg County. W. A. Linder sold to a
Boston mining company 27} acres of
land for $10,000. He received a portion
of the money cash. The same company
bought a neighboring larm for S20 an
acre. There is gold all through that
neighborhood.
? Cleveland had some luck after all.
Tho Chattanooga Times recalls the fact
that this present is the third time in
fifty years in which an administration
held the House through its two last years.
Even during the war Lincoln bad to deal
with an adverse House from 1862 to 1865.
Grant, in 1874, had the House to change
from a two-third majority in his favor to
nearly as great a majority against him.
? On Mrs. ScbafFner's place, near
Briar Creek, Burke County, has been
discovered, since the earthquake, a hole
12 feet in diameter, which is partly filled
with water. The bottom, it is said, can?
not be reached with the longest poles
that were put into it. The field that the
hole is in was planted in corn this season.

SWEEPING REDUCTIONS
For the next Thirty Days.
Are offering Unprecedented, Unapproachable,'^'
Unheard of, Matchless,
In ORDER to make a clean sweep of all Goods that change in style from one
season to another, we will sell our DREi?3 GOODS, that are fresh and stylish,
in all the leading shades, for 12Ac, heretofore sold for 15c and 20c per yard by
others. Our better grades, that we sold strictly fur 20c, and sold by others for 25c,
we now offer for 15c. Our 30c Dreys Goods, that were fold by other houses for 35c
and 40c, we are now offering for 25c. These goods must be sold between now and
Christmas, and we will positively save you money on them. ,
IN BLACK GOODS
We carry the "Boss Line," and at auch low figures as to.enable us to suit the
closest buyers.
VELVETEENS AND SILK VELVETS.
You need not waste your time in looking for lower figures on these goods than
we can give you, for we have bought them since the decline, and are willing to sell
them with a small profit.
A Sousing Bargain in Black Silks and Satins.
No Lady will slight us when examining our Black Silks, as we certainly have
beyond a doubt t?e best imported Black Silk for the least money in this market.
Black and Colored Satins almost given away.
JUST RECEIVED,
A handsome line in Newmarkets, Circulars and Short Wraps of the very latest
styles and cuts, bought direct form the manufacturer at very low figures, and we are
prepared to give you lower prices than heretofore obtained in this market?in fact,
you will see at a glance that we mean business.
JERSEYS.
Here is another of our Pet Bargains that will knock the bottom out of all
competition. A fine all wool, silk finished, coat back Jersey?which sold all along
this season very readily for $2.00?we are now offering for $1.45. Another big
bargain in a all weol Bancle Jersey, worth $2.50, for $1.75. Another Bancle Jer?
sey in brown, navy cardinel and garnet, a very heavy quality, and handsomely
made, that sold every where for $3.50, we are now closing out for $2.25. And still
another bargain in a very handsome and beautiful tailor made Astrachan Jersey?
ucthing like it in Anderson. Those are also in the most desirable shades worn this
season, and are fully worth double the money we ask. The regular price of
these goods everywhere is $4.00?we will close them out for $2 75.
BELOW COST.
In order to finally dispose of a small lot of Clothing still on hand, we will
offer you a $15.00 Suit for $8.50. A $18.00 Suit for $10. A $20.00 Suit for $12.50.
A $25,00 Suit for $15.00. Right here we wish to say to our patrons, and the trading
public generally, that' this is no idle assertion to catch or deceive you. We do
not intend carrying any Clothing after this season, and as we have only a very
small lot left, we are willing to close them nut below cost.
Remember, that we are the Leaders of Low Prices, and our friends and custo?
mers are willing to patronize us as long as we adhere to our motto?
LIVE AND LET LIVE.
And bear constantly in mind that the day for long winded profits is a thing of the
past, and that fortunes are not easily made.
We also would like to say that for the want of space we omitted quoting other
goods we carry; and, as a great many already know, we are constantly selling lower
than auy other house here or elsewhere, it would be useless to enumerate. Suffice,
however, to say, (and we are not boasting, like some of our competitors,) in these
hard times it behooves all to study their interest and stretch the dollar as far as
stretching will bear, because it is easier spent than made. Hence we will only ask
you to give us a call before spending your money elsewhere, and go home satisfied
that GENUINE BARGAINS can only be secured at the Great Bargain House of
LESSEE, &c GO.
NOTICE?Eemember, we have moved from our old stand,
and we are now on Brick Hange, next door to John E. Peo?
ples & Co.
