On the night of the 9th instant, Mr. William Kirkland, living near Flat Rock, had his dwelling house, kitchen, stables and barns totally destroyed by tire. He lost all his provisions, furniture and even-thing that was in the houses. It was the act of an incendiary, who has not been apprehended. It is earnestly hoped that he will be, and un example ujade by hanging hirn to the nearest tree. Major Adams' Reaper. The reaper that Maj. Adams used in harvesting the small grain in and around town, is of the Buckeye patent and performed the work well. ~ rf-lm iiiievpiinccs of the Ull a,w""" ground ,?nd the existence of stumps a little diffii^dty was experienced in some places, c'rt the results have been much more satisfactory than the old style of cradling. The Major has carried his machine home, to gather his own crop. An Old Maids Club. An "old maids club" has been formed among some of the young ladies of Camden, and we learn there is a large membership. The name of the club is not significant of the ages of its members, but is indicative, we suppose, of what it is the intention of the members to be. As soon as a member becomes engaged, sue is exp ^Ietl, which leads us to remark that the club will soon cease to exist for want of a quorum. The Edgefield Advertiser. If those papers which clip from others are disposed to give credit for the articles they copy, they ought surely to give the proper one. The JEdgefield Advertiser of the 12tli in stunt reprints our article upon Judge Wallace, and credits it to the A"' - s/kiic Gazette. Similar mistakes have occurred before with our Edgefield contemporary, and we now call its attention thereto, in the hope that it will do better in the future. Chess Club. Agreeable to a call, a party of gentlemen met at the Journal office on last Thursday evening and organized a chess club. The following officers wre elected: G. G. Alexander, President; P. T.

Let Us Hear from ItTlie law requires that the annual i report of the county commissioners I shall be published bv the middle of I February in each year. In every j county in the State, excepting Keri shaw, these reports have been publ lished. but nothing has been heard ! of the report of the commissioners of i Kershaw yet. though it is now nearly live months after the time. What has become of it, and why has it not I been published ? Cannot the com-j | missioners answer ? j. , The Wonderful Phonograph. Frofessor Duval will give another | exhibition of the Edison Phonograph | at Town Hall to-night, commencing j at 8:30 o'clock. The astonishing i properties of this wonderful little j instrument should cause every one to I desire to see it. The opportunity is : now presented which may never ocI cur ajrain to some, and we advise everybody to take advantage of this occasion. The exhibition is for the benefit of the Presbyterian Sunday School, and the price of admission has been placed at 25 cents. Oh. that nice soda water at C. J. Dunlap's. It is the most cooling and refreshing drink to be found in Camden during the summer. A Horrible Mistake. In our report of the social picnic at Mulberry, the insane person who sets the type on this paper made us appear to say that one young lady drank three quarts of lemonade, when it should have -read, three young ladies drank one quart of lemonade. Mistakes in our paper are at all times annoying, but when cue so horrible as this appears in an article we had prepared with so n vorrnrd for truth and correct XXI UV il X 11 ess, it makes us exceedingly unhappy'. "We have discharged the insane person, and hope this explanation is not too late to obtain forgiveness for us. The Drains. Council have had nearly all the drains through town cleaned out excepting the main drain through upper Camden. This drain is a very important one, and upon it the health of that section depends. If it is kept open, the health of the locality is good, but as only a part of it has been cleaned out, there is now a marsh covered with stagnant water fonned on the west side,where miasma will rise during the hot weather and cause sickness throughout the whole neighborhood In behalf of the people living thorc, we appeal to Council to have the matter attended to at once. The No-Fence Law. The advocates of the no-fenfe law I are rapidly increasing in this county, and we hope the day is not far distant when it will be adopted. Those of our citizens who have seen how it works in other counties, are | charmed with it, and are doing all they can to have it established in this county. It saves an immense outlay by the farmers ever}* year to repair their fences, so as to keep a few stray cattle from destroying their crops. If there were no fences to be kept up, there are hundreds of j acres of good land that would be J cultivated, which are now lying idle because the owners are too poor to fence them in. Give us the no-fenco law. Malicious Mischief. It is not an unfrequent occurrence for the owners of milch cows in Camden to have their cattle come home terribly mutilaied from the attacks of men and dogs. It is supposed these poor dumb brutes are Jms abused because they have invaded some person's crop. Many of i fields around town have fences po low and weak that anything could pass over them, and the owners seem to depend upon cruel treatment as a protection to their crops. It is not uncommon to see cows going around here with horns knocked off and otherwise cruelly treated. As long as the law permits cattle to run at large, it requires that fences shall be made strong enough to keep them out of the fields, snd persons who maltreat catile for a fahlt that is entirely their own, are liable to- prosecution and punishment, and should | receive it. ] I Progress. We are much gratified to learn i from our friends at Flat Rock that Mr. Lewis "Watts, of Western Wateree, has in process of construction in the neighborhood of Flat Rock, a mill for ginning, grinding, threshing, etc., which in a few days will be completed. We have seen the machinery for this mill, and it is in every sense of the word new, improved and of the highest type. Mr. Watts deserves crreat credit for his liberal ex | penditure and trouble, and we sin cerely wish him abimdant success. We congratulate our Flat Rock friends upon such evidences of prosperity, and we feel and know that * ' * - ail in teres to v.'ui do mutuary au vanced by this gooa work We liave promised to inspect the structure when completed, and although of no mechanical turn of mind, we will give an extended notice of the same.

Tonight he will preach to the young men. All ai-e cordially invited to be | present. | Monopolies. All the citizens of "Winnsboro ! are highly incensed at the extortion j practised upon them by the manag| ers of the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, and a meeting of ! the business men of the town is called j to discuss the feasibility of establish| ing a wagon train to run in opposition | to the railroad. We know their grievances are many, but they can hardly be anv worse than the people of l Camden are subjected to by the new ! management of the South Carolina road. We sincerely hope that the Legislature will take the matter in hand and compel these monopolies to act by their charter. A glance at their quarterly report will satisfy any j one whether rates can be reduced with out injury to the roads. Their net ] earnings even during the summer i months are enormous. 1 Old Bachelors. "Who says that old bachelors arc i always unhappy and miserable crca- 1 tures ? We thought at one time that < they were, hut we have changed our < opinion lately, and now believe that 1 there are a few exceptions to the < general rule. We know one old fel s low in town who is very industri 1 our and hardworking, and he ' wiles the happy hours away " by singing 1 and whistling during time he is at i work, being as happy as the day is 1 long. His favorite airs seem :o be ( Old Dog Tray," "Auld Lang Syne," < "Home. Sweet Home," "The Girl I < Left Behind Me," with an occasional < variation of "Shoo Fly," etc., and 1 winds up with "I want to be an An- ] gel." Could any one wish for a more i happy and contented mind ? Would c that all of us could be as happy, and < may God grant that his last song f will be answered when he is called i away from earth. t 1 Sunday Services. t According to announcement, Rev. * C. D. LaRoche, of Charleston con- 1 ducted the services at Grace Church * last Sunday morning and evening. c His sermons on both occasions were 1 excellent, and gave evidence of a scholarly mind and fine conception. ] Rev. J. 0. Willson returned from Spartanburg on Friday, and occupied i his pulpit in the Methodist Church i as usual Sunday morning and even- ? ihg. J At the Presbyterian Church the J usual services were conducted by : Mr. Hay, morning and afternoon. 1 At the Baptist Church Rev. Dr. ' Teasdale occupied the pulpit, and J preached to large congregations. At ? night the church was crowded, and, ] after the sermon, four young men . recently joined the church were bap- : tized. | Homicide Near Bishopville. 1 On last Saturday a shooting affray ' UCCUHCU UCJU hi uuiuivi j county, which i.~s resulted in the ] death of Mr. W.

Death, under any and all circumstances, is an awful visitor. "When, however, it goes to the "three score ' years and ten," the time allotted to t man. we shudder not so much at its 1 approach, but look upon it as a nat- J ural sequence to life. On Thursday s last our community was heavily and 1 sorely stricken with the sad but truth- 1 ful news that Miss Shaw had given < up all that was mortal of her 'x)dy, i and that her spirit was with its God. i Deep and hea>y were the throbs of 1 many sorrowing hearts as this pain- i ful news spread through our town, i t. i __ ; it SeeillS Ulll us yesieruuy uuu. ?u saw lier in tho full flush and beauty ' of life.

The grim monster. 1 however, gave his order, and her gentle, sweet and tender body soon lay as still and lifeless as marble. As this terrible and heartrending ailliction comes upon us, we can only accept it as u warning that we, too, must soon pass on. It is a sad, it is a painful commentary upor. the b rittleness of human life, and must so ucbuoirish all.

It gives us pleasure to hear of his success in life, and we feel proud that Camden has sent out into the world so worthy a representative. Capture of an Escaped Lunatic. A crazy man. named Tom Crinin"fer, who had escaped from the State Lunatic Asylum, was recaptured near Cool Spring early Sunday morning by Mr. John Kinder, an employee af the Asylum, who had been sent in pursuit of liim. Crazy Tom, as he is called, was sent to the Asylum from Lancaster county, and it was thought that lie wuold make for his aid home when lie escaped. He was easily traced to the place of his capture. He had stopped at the house if a colored man. where lie rcpre;ented himself to be a mail carrier between Camden and Lancaster. When Mr. Kinder approached the louse. Tom recognized him, and ran from the house in his bare feet and .vent into the the woods. He was based for half a mile before they ;aught him, and it then,'required the combined efforts of Mr. Kinder and Jhief of Police Kettles to secure him. ffe was brought back to Camden and ilaced in the Latham House piazza irliile preparations were made for his lonvcyance back to the Asylum. His ;onduct there attracted quite a crowd, md his How of language was unceasng. Among other things, Tom said hat Judge Mackey was a relative of lis, but he did not seem proud of he relationsliip, for he said: " Why, 10 would clhnb a tree for a hickory iut, and he can turn his coat quicker hurl von can turn a nocket handker iliief on a wheel." He is represented o be quite a dangerous case at times. lev. Dr. Teasclale. Tliis eminent divine, as previously mnounced, commenced a series of neetings in the Baptist Church last sunday, and on that day, as well as jvery night since, large congregaiionh have attended his preaching, though advanced in years, lie apparently possesses a strong and vigor)U8 constitution, and he certainly exhibits wonderful efficiency in the jreat cause ho represents. His preaching is not of the sensational dnd, but is in some respects peculiny. He lias a gi'eat faculty of simplify ing the truth of the gospel, and mfikincr it. annnar in its most, winnimr O - X~ X o form. He leaves the sinner no excuse for neglecting salvation. In points of doctrine ht*i:> a bold cxpounder of the views adopted by the church with which he is identified, and does not hesitate to conlenm evil in whatever shape it may ippcar. No cue can fail to listen to liim while he preaches, and his eloquent words and positive way of expounding the truth are bound to leave an impressiou. No doubt uucli good will result from Irs work iiere. Rev. Thomas C. TeasJale. D. D., Is a native of New Jersey, and was )om in 1H08. He commenced his ninistry when quite a young man, md 1ms occupied prominent posiLions in the Baptist Church duidng ill his public life, having at various times been in charge of churches at Slew Haven, Conn., Tfttsburg, Pa., Springfield, 111., and Washington, D.

Miss Mamie Shaw. She was endeared to us by the recollection of her pleasing manners, deep interest in (he important truths taught, and the dedication of herself to the service of her Lord and Master by a public profession of her faith. To the eye of sense, nil seems dark in thus early removing one just entering upon life's duties, liy faith, be it our's to say God disposes. His purposes none can change; none can resist. Whatever befalls us is ordered in infinite love. Be it ours to magnify God by a calm submission to His will, seeing no hand but one in our trials in giving or taking. The Lord gave; the Lord taketh away. " To walk by 'aitn and not by sight, Take it on trust a little while, .Soon shall we read the mystery right In the full sunshine of his suiiie," Be it. Hmoirfi/, as a Sabbath school, that we tender to the bereaved family our deep sympathy in this dark hour of their atllictioii, and co- 'tin-nd them to the consolation of that Savior to whom otlr departed sister had given her youthful 'iff ctions: who alone can give light in darkness, anil who has .said : "Cast thy burden on the Lord.
