Sunday is St. Valentine's day. Gen. E. V. &ise of Sumter, is at tending the Court. OFF FOR FLomPs.-MIssrs. P. B. Livingston and 'Mr. Way, w;Iah their families. together with Mr. B. B. DuBose, having disposed of their in terests in this County, left on the 5th inst. for Florida. A new building is being erected on Mr. Rigby's lot. to be occupied by Dr. W. E. Brown as a a ug store. 31rs. Mary Tobias, wife of MIr. Friendly Tobias, died on the (th inst. The remains were interred on Sunday in the Oak Grove burying ground. Mr. A. Moltrie Brailsford was ap pointed foreman of the Grand Jury. Anothervaluable addition to thle so ciety orf Manning is Miss Evrell, of Broohlyn, N. Y., who - ill assist Miss Virginia Ingram in her riourishing school. The notorious John Butler is thle most slandered man in the County. The numberless crimes attributed to biu. are enough to make the celbrat cd Slade burst his cofi lids with en S. C. Dickson, of Grenville haS procured a patent for a cotton thin ning machine. A scientific man s:ys he never saw a bald Indian. The Indians fron: time immemorial have understood how to manage their wives. R B. Watson, Esq., of Ridges;pring, killed a hog of the Buckshire breed which weighed 69S pounds. This i; the largest hog ever killed in Edg field Co.-and perhaps the largest in the State. "Has George ever hinted that he is fond of you," asked the girl's mother. "-No," she replied thoughtfuly, "amld I doubt if he ever will. He complai ed last night that his corns paincdI him, and it wasn't 10 oclock." Judge Pressley's presence beir necessary in Columbia on Monday, the Court of Sessions did not convene 'till Tuesday. The Judge's charge to the Grand Jury was instructive and eid Their duty was clearly defined in ref erence to their examination into the coduct and offices of the public o0ic ials. They were remiuded that theii duty extended to an inquiry into thiej care taken of prisoners in the publie Jail-all prisoners being entitled to the necessary comforts of life. 'I he following Eills have been found~ by the Grand Jury : 'State vs. Joe Tisdale, Larceny of hog. Statc vs. Dave Frierson, Cow steal ing. State vs. James Connnrs and Ed son Connors, Robbery. Larceny, as sault with intent to ravish, and atssault and battery. The cases tried ar Joe Tisdiale, who pleaded guilty-and Dave Friersonu found not guilty. ery ear t ''o, said a Kentuckian in response to a question, "1 never actually f'ought a duel, but I came very near it once.' '.'Tell us about it, colonel," said a breathless listener. "It was some years af.o, when duels were much more common than they are now, when a man's honor was a sacred thing and to be defended at any cost. I received a challenge from a gentleman who said that I had in sulted him, and that I must either make. a full apology or fight. I, being the chllenged party, had the choice of wee~pons, of course." "And vou choos" "I chose to apologize. That's the nearest I ever came to fightin' a duel," concluded the colonel.-N. Y. imes. MtEETING OF THlE .1103UMENTAL As SOCIATION. Pursuant to a call made through the Clarendon papers by the surviv ors of the Manning Guards a meet ing was held in the Court House this day for the purpose of organizing a monumental association. G.

In 18G~1, says th~e Abbeville Xf~dium, ur country was filled up with gallant young men and pretty gils. It seem d that the proportion was just about right for them to pair off judiciously. The roungt mn went to the war. fbev fell into battle and died from dis ease until very few could ret urn home. The girls lived on in security and their number was decreased only at the or dinary rate. Now, let an old soldier recur to those diays and recall the boys and il who grew up) with him. H~e eaLu te where this and that boy died and he will find himself almost alone. But wvhat has become of the girls'? He will thud but few old mxaids and must wor der where they found husbands. Smec of them have married several times. The more von think of it the strangor it apjpearis, but it should com fort ah th~e girls of the present day for it carries out the old adag'e: "Thre sw lis no goo0se so gray but soon or Wil find somne ho'nest gaer for her nmate.''

( From Iire .Sartaablmry Ifera.l.] Last Friday night a gentleman of this city received intelligence that his son was in a gaminbling den in the Pal metto) House. Without thougl~t of consequences he wen'lt to his rt'scue. He rushed against the~ door, burled it from its fastenings, and confronted the guilty wretches who htad been hid ing their crimes behind barred doors Iand drawn shutters. There he found uis son and the son of a worthy neigh boru gamblling with D an Brown a'ud 'Toz Horne. JUehinud them he foun.d two mem~beris of the Spartan Bar, Mr. C. P. Barrett and Mr F.

In Julv last I discovered that I had contracted the most dreaded of all diseases, blood poison. Upon the ree ommedation of one who was in this instance a friend in need, I took S. S. S. and used lotion No. 1 according to direcions. Its effects were speedy ad effectual. In one month's time, to onvince myself that I was cured, I onsulted a prominent physician, and after a most searching examination he told me I was perfectly well. I feel well, and know that I am vell. I can produce others upon whom S. S. S. has done the same thing, and who, with me, will thank you for a remedy which has cured us of a disease which doctors so often fail to relieve. G. JosEPH JorD.DA, Hornellsville, N. Y.
