However, the Kershaws were young men and the Camden boys were little fellows who soon showed their 1 inability to plav an even game with 1 their older rivals. 1 A match game will be played on ^ the Camden grounds this (Thursday) afternoon between the Kershaws, of ; Camden, and the Orangeburg Club, i jwben some good playing is expected. * I.e and the Same. In speaking of tlic freshets in the atercc river, there are still some I pons in and around Camden who jbbornly assert that what is J pwn among onr people as the , uocott freshet" (because that gentlepi came near being drowned in it) Etk^berman freshet (so called be- 1 IseWhertnan was passing through ' I county at the time) are not the ' Le. but t' at they were different 1 Bets.

The special attention of the Democratic clubs in this county is called j ;o the resolution recently adopted I t>y the Executive Committee about ;he recognition of delegates from the various clnbs in the county. No deration can be admitted upon the old rolls. New rosters must be made JUl, ttUU cvciy uiciuucc muot di^h n's name or make his mark, and that oil must be presented to show that ;he club is entitled to the number of delegates it sends to the convention. This action was deemed necessary n order to insure u fair count for ill parties interested. We trust that 10 club will fail to comply with the esolution. The resolution referred o will he found in the report of the proceedings of the meeting of the Executive Committee, which appear in trickier column. Jo ored Excursion to Charleston.

Very few of the public roads in :bis county Rre in good repair now. They are all sadly In need of attention from the road hands, In the county convention in Abaeville. the farmers claimed, and ffere given, eight out of the twelve telecntes to the State Convention. Our people are beginning to wake jp upon political matters, and the candidate who holds back much longer will indeed find himself badly aeaten. The mosquitoes are so numerous n the low lands along the river that die farm hands and stock can hardly stand their bites while working in the fields down there. It has only been thirty-eight rears since postage stamps were irst used in the United States, and we are indebted to Postmaster-General Niles for the stamp. Mr. H. Ellis, former'y a resident of Camden, died in Florence on last rhursday. He was suffering irreat pain, and in his anxiety to relieve the pain he accidenally took too ? t ? large a aose 01 inorpmuc. For more than a week past the street hands have been busy cutting [town the weeds and bushes that have grown up on the back streets and in public squares. It is not probable that cotton pickers will be overburdened with work this year. That is, if we are to judge from the average appear anceof the cotton fields at ibis time. The Columbia Record says that lightning struck a dead tree near Seegers's brewery on last Saturday and killed fourteen buzzards that were sitting on the tree at the time. Some of the colored preachers in Darlington coanty seem to have wandered far from the right path re cently. Two of tliGra wore cougtit last week wuile committing a robbery. Paul H. Hayne, the greatest of Southern poets died at his home in Columbia county, Ga., on the 7th inst. Paralysis was the cause of his death. He was fifty-sis years of age. At the Haile Gold Mine, on the 7th inst., Jules Winchester, colored, got into a difficulty with another colored man, and in the fight Jules received ten stabs and cuts from a knife. Five of the wounds arc severe. The first, coinage made bv authority of the United States was of copper and bears the date 1787. One of the inscriptions, is "Mind Your Own Business."?Ex. The man who advocates the convention plan of making nominations, is an enemy to the ordinary voter, and wants to deny to him the right of saying who he wishes to support as a nominee. Every man in this county who feels that lie is a free man, ana who wishes to exercise the rights of a free man, should insist upon the primary election system for making nominations in this county. We have heard any number of persons predict that the expected drought would soon set in, but it continnes to rain all the same. There was a very heavy fall of rain on last Thursday and Friday afternoons. The farmers in the npper portion of the State are coming to the front in the right way. They are forming farmers clubs and claiming their full share of recognition, despite the sarcasm and ridicule thrown at them by the politicians. A few of our farmers who had their corn crops drowned out again by the last freshet, are going right on planting it over. "It is a risk," they say, "but we must have something to feed on next winter, and this is the only chance for us." The Town Council of Newberry are enforcing the law against vagran. cy, and, as a consequence, the lazy loafers who have heretofore infested the town have left for other parts. If the same law could be enforsed in this place we think it would have a wholesome effect here, too. During the past week we have heard much complaint from persons who come into town on the Cheraw road about a very dangerous mud hole in the road near the crossing of the race leading from the mill. It is almost Impossible for a loaded vehicle to get over the bole alluded to. The road overseer should have the place attended to eh once, W. D.

Mr. Editor: At the Ooijnty Convention to be held in Camden on the 29th inst., a County Chairman for the Democratic party is to be elected. Please allow me to suggest the name of a good and true man for this position?a gentleman whose ability is unquestioned, whose integrity and purity of character eminently fit him for any position in the gift of our people, and one who would so conduct, the affairs of the office as to meet with the approval of every true Democrat. We want to see him made the standard bearer of the Democracy of .Kershaw. We suggest the name of Me. Eugene d. Blakeney. Respectfully, B. I ?

A farmers clnb to be known as Gum Spring farmers club, was organized in the southern portion of the county on last Saturday with Mr, G. W. Moseley as President, T L. Davis, Viced'resident, and D. P. C. Mnrchison as Secretary. It now has about twenty-five members, and promises to grow rapidly. They are in fall sympathy with the "farmers movement, and are in favor of the primary system for making nominations this year. Let the good work go on. Plant More Peas. It is a serious question now with most of our farmers, since losing their corn crop, as to what they are to feed their stock during the coming winter. It is too late to plant com with any degree of certainty that it will mature before the frost comes, hence the pea crop comes np in place of corn. Peas I sown during the latter part of July have been known to return a full crop to the planter. To plant the seed and cut the vines as soon as tliey are fall of peas, oaring them for hay, will come nearer supplying the placer dftte lost corn crop as a stock food than anything else we con plaint at this time, and the cost of ^ainiae for Chicken (jjwjer*.

He has only bought abont 15 or 20 pounds c)f bacon, and that was immediately after the war?has sold 500 hogs, or the bacon from that number of hogs during the 40 years: Three months would more than cover the length of time he has hired negroes during this long period.

Mr. Mills says that economy is more than half the battle. This country is swarming with young women wtio are not only respectable and fully equipped wi'h all the qualities that women value and men adore, but superfluous. We arc over-cropped, with them. The great trouble is we have not men enough to go around. The census returns show that there are in this Kfof.A fi 000 moro white women than white men.

Some time since Governor Lee appointed a colored lawyer of Danville, James W. Pope, a member of the Board of Visitors of the Virginia Normal and Collegiate Institute at : Petersburg. At the session of the Board in the latter city recently the propriety of this selection of the Democratic Executive was indorsed by the election of Pope to the Trea- 1 surership of that institution.
