A Mistake.?By some hocus-pocus, which is unaccountable to everybody save printers, the type made us ray last week that H. Baruch was celling la* dice kid gloves a' 40c per pair. This was a mistake. He is offering an extra quality of Lid gloves at 50c per pair, and the ladies arc rapidly relieving him of his stocl: at that prion. Col. Thomas Y. Simons, a prominent twmbcr of the CharVston bar. died at his horn* in that city on the 30th ultimo. Though always in tho front rank of his profession. Col.

Altogether the prospfcet of a first class "tritmr company'' in the up t ry 1? very favorable. . v?. A gentleman who lias traveled all over Europe and America, and who j visited our town a few weeks ago, asserted without fear of contradiction that the passenger coach on the Camden branch is the most inferior "first-class" j car on any road in the civilized world. And still the people of Camden submit to the imposition. Worms.?The ravages of worms on the crops in som ) portions of the county ! aro fearful. Oj many farms the stand I of cotton has been completely destroyed, j and com plrntcd in its stead. Mr. Wi ley Brannon tells ns that nine hands capturedd and killed from seven acres on his place in two days one and a half bushels of worms by actual measurement. But he is undaunted, and say* he will yet make a crop. The PkomfKadf. Concf.rt.?The entertainment at tho residence of Mr. George Aldcn on the 30th ultimo was a j brilliant- nflair. Tbc house was beautifully illuminated, the audience large and appreciative, aod the music perfectly grand. The performers acquitted themselves in the most creditable manner, all seeming to excel themselves. Everybody was delighted, and would be glad to spend another evening so pleasantly. Crowded?A gentleman in Camden, who contemplates visiting Europe this year, recently received a letter from a friend in New York, telling him that it is impossible to secure first cabin passage upon any steamer earlier than the 15tb of June, so great is the demand for transportation across the waters for persons who are coing to the Paris Exposition. However, tho gentleman referred to has not given up the idea of visiting tho Yaterlaml this year. Unsafe ?The bridge over Wateree river, opposite Camden, is in such a rickety condition that the County Commissioners have posted the following notice at each end of the bridge : Camden, S.

The recklessness of such conduct, to say the least of it. cannot be too stroncly condemned. The wonder is that the perpetraton escaped detection. Where was the police ? An Original Ii?ea.?A gentleman residing in Camden, who generally has an opinion of his own, and who is noted for his originality, has struck upon an idea that is really novel, and for the i benefit of the papty we will publish it Ho suggests, inasmuch as success this year should be the paramount object of every Democrat, and the great number ' of aspirants for the offices tends to defeat the party, that every man, who is brought Toward for a nomination and fails to get it, be shot; and that those i who receive the nominations and fail to i get elected be flayed alive lie thinks that in this way the number of candi: J-t? usllr rf>dno*d and | UUHO VtlD wt % M%.w ?? ?..

Homicide.?On last Thursday morning David UiosoD. a colored laborer on the farm of Mr. John Whitsker in this county upon the western side of Waterce rivor, wis shot and instantly killed by deputy sheriff Geo. W. Glenn. It: appears that ITinson bad violated his contract with Mr. Whitakcr. who made complaint of the fact to Trial Justice J. D. Dunlap. Hinson was summoned to appear, but disregarded the summonsA warrant was then issued and placed in the hand? of a constable, who went afterhimon thccvcningofthe29th ultimo. He resisted arrest and threatened the life of tho constable, who, not feeling on * Vi/*,r pAcnrt to pxtreme measures. returned to town ood reported what had occurred to the Trial Justice Thus encouraged Ilinson armed himself with a pistol and double barrelled shot enn, and went about Mr. Whit&ker's place, threatening vengeance upon him and all others who bad incurred 1 is displeos ure. His conduct was reported to Justice Punlav vho directed Sheriff Pnby to arrest the deceased. Accompanied by hisdiputies, Messrs. G. W. Glenn and L. F. Hexley, tbc sheriff left town early Thursday morning. Soon after reaching Mr. TVhitakcr's plantation,! Flinson, with pistol in hand, was observed goinsr in the direction of the river. Pursuit was at onco begun, Cnpr. Doby and Mr. Wbitaker endeavoring to head hi:n off at ore point, while Messrs. Glenn and Huxley made for another. The la^t named geutlen.cn first overtook the deceased, who turned nod advanced ujm>o Hax'ey, with his pist d drawn. Hax'ey, presenting hi* pistol, told him if ho offeredjto irhoot, he would kill him. The sheriff and Mr. Whitakrr were then fast approaching, and it was t'lnnghl that the presence of four armed men would induce the fellow to stjirender. Hut not bo. IP' declared,' " * !?

Coroner John It, Goodnle was then sent for. a jury was summoned consisting of 3 white and 9 colored men, a thorough investigation was made, and a verdict of justifiable homicide rendered. The following persons composed the jury of inquest, the whites being indicated by an asterisk : Travis A. Moore*, T RBrown*, E. J. Bisseli*. Isaac Watson, Ben Stooey, Caleb White. Jesse Blown. Robt.

Old, Young, end Middie-aged Join in One Grand FjTort to Make the Day all it Would he. "Mine Host," Capt. J no. Bur dell Always to the Front When Anything Good it to he Done. The 4th day of May will not soon be forgotten by the tender and appreciative scholars of Mi?s. Young, and long will it be remembered by those of ninturer years whosepleasurc i? was to join them in their festivities. The morning seemed inclined to frown upon our contemplated pleasure, and the sweet beauties of May wore dimmed with lowering clouds. In fu<t, had we observed the rude freaks of an overshadowing nature, our joys would have been rudely snuffed. But nothing was tudnuut the joyous spirits that were to mingle so soon together. Leaving our homes with happy hearts, in a wagon loaded with precious freight, we soon reached the scene of joy. lJy the side of a lovely branch were to be seen Utile children sporiing, and mothers eagerly looking on, and men cheerfully chatting. Their wng ous. buggies and baskets all attested the grand occasion, and the gentle ripple of satisfaction which pervaded all showed that this was to be a glorious day. No sooner had w<> commenced the pleasures of the day, than the heavens Rcemed determined trf put a stop to our brilliant anticipations, and the rain commenced to pour. This was not. however, to stop us: "move up" was I the prompt order: and to the school house, near by, we soon gathered, when the merry dance and other pleasuies were continued. Let me. before passing this portion of tlie festivities, speak of the beautiful dressing of the School house. It waa tastefully festooned with pretty wreathes of Inurcl ami pne showing that delicate bauds hud done the work?and artistically done it too. Once in doors, we laughed ut the clouds for a while, when, as if by magic they dis. pcrsed, and for n time the blue sky was over us. To the music the young folks dencwi, while the awe eedato m grwjx sat hround. end talked wilh fin air of ease i and comfort that well betokened happiness for one day at least. I? was not loug before we raw the matrons as they wended their way to the adjoining woods: and hood the beautiful contrast of the green and white were risible to ever^ eye, as the snow white cloths were spread upon the green gra?s. And now, what a display of everything nice ! I am sure that I am not extravagant when 1 say, that even one hard to please would not have ordered such a variety from Pelmonico himself?and so nicely prepared too It will blister your mouth. Mr. Editor. I know, when I even partially call over the list of nice things, mutton, spring chickens, hams, salads, &c., with all ofth? vegetables of the season, followed with the choicest cukes, pies, puddings, candies and delicious, strawberries, nnd last, but by no means, tie bad ! old nine?home made?from the pure grape, mellow and soul refreshing. Surely f have mentioned enough. Coupled with all of these delicacies I have never seen a crowd enjoy themselves more; nnd too much praise cannot be given to miss lotuigi for her grand success in the whole management of her school?culminating in this most enjoyable affair. I know that she has made another impression, deep ar.d lasting. | upon the hearts of the young ideas. May her school long prosper. After an elegant dinner the dance was resumed, and was kept up until late in the evening, when wc all left, having felt that it was a day long to be cherished as one of our happiest. What should wc say of our warm hearted, genial host, Capt. Burdell. His attention was to all?even the youngest ohild upon the ground received his welcome. In fart, he is the main pivot upon which turns everything that is progressive and good upon the West side of Waterte. Excuse this humbly written and imperfect account of the delightful day. Occasional. From Fasscll Place. Planting has been delayed in the clay lands The dry weather in March prevented an early preparation of the soil. Sandy lands have been planted earlier than usual Commercial Fertiliztrs have not betn so extensively used in this locality as heretofore. About the same acreage has been planted in corn and cotton as last year. A largely increased acreage has been sown in wheat and oats, also an * ??1 fl'U. increased acreage 01 eorjjii um. xim planting of cotton commenced the last of March and will be finished early in May. We usually plant this crop from the middle until the last of April Corn planted early in April is growing fas'. Stands generally godtl. Cotton is not doing so well, the nights are too cool, stands of cotton are a good average compared with former veers. Wheat and oats are looking well and indicate a full nvernee crop. There is some rust in places but not general or extensive. Land has been better prepared and more domestic fertilizers have been used thnn last year. Labor is more abundant to hire by the month or year, hut has not improved in quality or efficiency. If i the office seekers would be considerate j aDd kind enough to postpone their canI until our crops were made they would render a valuable eervioe to the farmer.

Fx-President Jeff rson Davie Speaks In Fitting Terms of Our Goni federate Dead. i The following letter, addressed to a I committee of citizens, was read at the ' memnrinl celebration in Macon, Ga., on the 26th instant. Mississippi City, April 21,1373. Gf.ntlemfn : I pioecrely regret my inability to be present at the laying of the corner stone of''a monument to be ' ? A--1 \l.iiz... nn in linnnr nC nilf ficrit'u at imutwu, u?.; ?? iivh?? v? v?. dead Confederate soldiers." The event possesses every Httrnction to me ; it is inffrircd by the Ladies' Memorial Association ; the monument is to be located in the key-stone State or the Conf?-d?Tnt'' arch; and to commemorate the sacrifices of those who died in the defense of out inherited and "inuli'-nable" rights. What though we were overborne by numbers, and accessories not less efficient, truth is not to he measured by success in maintaining it against force ; nor is the glory less of him who upholds it in the face of unequal odds, but is if not rather more to his credit ilia* be counted all else as dust in the balnnce when weighed with honor and duty ? | On mnny a stricken field our soldiers stood few and faint, but fearless still, ! for they wore the panoply of unquestioning confidence in the rectitude of their cause, and knew how to die hut not to surrender. Let not any of their survivors impugn their faith bv offering the penitential plea that "they believed i they were right." Ho it ours to transmit to posterity our unequivocal testi1 mony to the justice of their convictions, , to their virtues, and the sanctify of tb?i i motives by which they were actuated, i U ia moot that tfcii soeuipoot should have originated with the ladies of the land, whose self denial was conspicuous through all the trials and sufferings of war, whose gentle ministrations in the hospitals, and at way-side refreetorios, so j largely contributed to relievo the sick and the wounded, and whose unfaltering devotion to their country's causa in the darkest hours of our struggle illustrated the fidelity of the sez which was last at the cross aud first at the sepulchre. I am profoundly thankful to them for inviting nie to represent thorn, as their orator, on the approaching occasion. Had it hern practicable to accept their) request would have been, to nie. a comr i mand, obeyed with no other nductnnce than the consciousness of inability to do justice to the theme. Thanks to tho j raprits of our Confederate dead, they ' need neither outer ^or bard to commend j their deed* to the present generation of ? *? c n r?_ c I mcir counirvmen. many fn mi muui home and kindred, and sleep in uumarked zrnvcs, but all are {fathered in the love of those for whom they died, nod their memories are hnllowed ia the hearts of all trne Confederate*. By the pious efforts of oar people, many humble cnicterice, such a?, in their impoverishment, were possible, have been prepared, and the Confederate de?d have been collected in them from neighboring battle fields. Thers annually, with reverential affection, the graves, alike of the known and the unknown, are decked with vernal flowers, expressive of gratitude renewable forever. and tvnical of the hone of a rcsur rcctlon nnd reunion where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rear. To be remembered, honored, beloved by their people is tho reward b.'stowed on our Confederate dead. It U tho highest which a good and purely pariotic ' man could desire. Shouhl it be asked, why then baild this monument ? the answer is, they do not need it, but poster-! ity may. I*, is not their reward, but; our debt. If tho greatest gift a hero! gives his raco is to hare been a hero, in i order that this gift may he utilized to coming generations, its appreciation by i contemporaries shoul l be rendered as visible and enduring as possible Let the monument, rising front earth toward heaven, lift the minds of thoro who come after us to a higher standard than the common test of success. Let it teach that man is born for duty, not lor expe-} diency: that wlico an attack is made on i the community to which he belongs, by | which be is protected, and to winch his allegiance is due, his first obligation is to defend that community; and that,{ under such conditions it is better to have "fought nnd lost than never to have ; fought at all." Let posterity learn by this monument that yon commemorate mm who died in a defensive war; that they did not, as has been idly stated,; submit to the arbitrament of arms the question at issue?questions which involved the inalienable rights inherited from their ancestors and held in trust for their posterity?but that they strove ] to maintain tho State sovereignty which their fathers left them, and which it was their duty if possible to transmit to their children. Away, then, with such feeble excuse for the abandonment of principles | which may be cru>bi-d for awhile, but i which, possessing tho "ternal vitality j of truth, must in its own good time pre- I vail over perishable error. | Let (hie monument teach tbat hero-: ism derives its lusfro from the jastice of i the cause in which it is displayed, nnd 1 let it mark the difference be wen ?J war waged for the robber-like purpose of conquest and one to repel invasion? ! to defend a people's hearths and altars j and to maintain their laws and liberties., Such was the war in which our heroes i fell, and there is the crown which spark- j lea with the penis of patriotism and! righteousness, with a plory uudimmed by nny motive of aggrandisement or intent to inflict ruin on others. We present them to posterity a? examples to be f.'flowed, and wait securely f?r the verdict of mankind, when knowledge shall have dispelled misrepresentation and delusioo. Is it unreasonable to hope .l-. <i a - iriui uiiiiur** ri'iiuciitju auu a tivnci diu ji of tho political history of the Union may yet restore the rights prostrated by the passions developed in our long aud bloody war .y If. however, it should be otherwise, then frora our heroes' graves' shail come in mournful tours the "Answer fit: And if our children must obey, They must, but thinking on our day, T'will less debase them to submit.' l'ours, faithfully, Jefferson Davis.
