SmLOH'S COUGH and Consumption Cure is sold by us on a guarantee. It cures Consumption. Two well known gentlemen of cor town, each the possessor of a very demure look-,I ing mule, met the other day to negotiate a *"wap." The merits of both animals were eloqu:ntly extolled, and finally an exchange was effected. Then two darkies on hand mounted the mule of his employer and started for home. But the mules, regard less of what had been said in their pratse, commenced a backward rotary moton in a direction opposite to where their heads pointed. In jockey parlance they tok the "studs." It was most annoying to the gen tlemen who were involuntary wittsses of this misbehaviour, but the tuodarhies, withI real ingeuity, relieved Lheir embarrass ment by suddenly whirling their ste : around and applying whip. Continuing in the "studs," the mules finally passed away; and with a long drawn sigh of relief their respective owners disappeared too. Quite a crowd greeted the scholars of the Manning Academy, assisted by a nu~mber of friends, at their entertainment Friday even ing, given in the pecuniary interest of the Methodist Church. The programme acted was lively and pleasant, affording the .au dience unlimited amusement. A conspica ous and happy feature of the occasion was the "'broom drill" by the girls of the school, under the command of Prof. Bonhram. This was good, indeed, and heartily enjoyed. - Th proficiny in the broom manuel, ex ,hibited by the young ladies, produced rounds of applause; but this is not so sur prising, for all petticoats are credited with possessing a siri~-ng skill, in the manipula tion of the broom. A prize was put up as a premium for the best drilled girL Messrs. Eligh and Gibbs, of Columbia, with Mr. C. C. Manning, acted as judges. The prize was awarded to Miss Alice McDonald. Mr. Gibbs gracefully presented it in an appro prat speeh Asn Aposraoraz -ro -ts Cow.-"We have had for a day or two a fierce onslaught of the First King spreading gems and .ar kes as pure as ever hung on Diana's Tem pe. Notwithstanding the biting cold, which drove everyone in doors, and almo'st suspended business, the interruption has been atoned for in the magnificent and the gorgeous display of natural brilliances. The day following the freeze the sun arose in all the splendor of the great day-god, and en hancedi the beauty of the same an hundred fold. While gazing on in mute wonder and enjoyment a Mocking Bird perched on a op most branch. seemmgn to tahe in the scene of splendor, commencing to carro? and warble a song, as if in gratunde and Tefirst bird of spring Attempted toe sing, But ere he had long sounded his note He fell from the limb A ! a dead bird was he, For the music had ":fr-i" in his throat." We are too modest to, after perusing the sbove remarkable ebullition from the trans cendent pen of one of our most erudite gen iuses, do more than meekly add that the se vere freeze did great damage to trees. Our streets are strewn with fallen limbs, broken by their heavy ice mantle, and miany a cool sequestered bower of summer has been sipped and left a tangled mass. We have not heard from the country, but there is lit-1 tle doubt but that the injury has been gen eral. CROUP, WHOOPING COUGH and Bron-, chitis immediately relieved by Shilohi's Cre. BRILLIANT ENTERTAINMENTS. Rosis Hr L, Nov. 27, 1886. Dn&n Tnras:-Tour correspondent was the lucky recipient of an invitation to a so ciable on the 22nd inst., at the beautiful mansion home of our highliy esteemed neighbor, Hon. James E. Tindal, given by his accomplished little daughter, Mattiec, for the purpose of contributing to the enjoy ment of her former school-maates. Misses Saddie Furman, of Sumter, and Alma Bre den, of Marlb'orough, two mnost charming young ladies who were spending the week with her. "Oh! wad some power the giftie gie~ us' to write up this brilliant entertainment as we enjoyed it. While dancing was entirely ex ouded, the programme was so ingeniously and systematiceally arranged that it was scarcely missed. After the usual ceremo nies-greetings of old friends, introduction of strangers, etc., several hours were opent in the most animated and social *:nversa tion-here and there groups of two, whis pering soft words, and casting sly glances at each other, while doubtless some poor fellow, possessed entirely by the green eyed hiself mirs? -rae e some etliv;- el low wa. entertaijning his sweeth.rt.

We dislike to discriminate between our friends, but we cannot help but ad=:t the existence of a sa7d-ing par-1 tialitv for this ver- handsmae. kind-hea c ed couple, whose doors have been thrown open so often to the young folks of this con: uinnity, for their inno;.nt anrsements. ltefreshwents were served from time to time, in variety and abundarce, well suited to tho tst,- of the most tastideous- This party was noted forits many gallunt younig men, and the grace ati exquisite beauty of its young ladies, cf which we feel indebt ed to Saninerton, F-lton, Privateer, and Calvarv, for contributions. Misses Iley, Ureeden.

A Word to the Colored Citizens in Re-1 gard to Their Educational luterestes. M .rsa, S. C., Nov. 31. 1G. Editor the .P:J?.inj 7i-s: -As - .zblie joire d-dicat-d to the publie wi. .i ak a sall space for th--: admission a ew words directed aptn a iatter in wAic, I ia sure, evt ry progressii matn is interest ed, viz.: that of educaticn. While my l guag: is Iddresswi to the people with whom I am identitied. it nas, nevertheless, a general application. I do not think we do well to allow our selves to grow indifferent upon the educa tion of ourselves or our children, bt'aause it is an indispensabi-: pre-requisite to the well being and elevation of every one of us; it is one of the :neans by which the solusion? of the problem presented by the query-. what is to be the Negro's pla-e in government, in societyr, in the progressive march of the in tellect? is to be reached. In the light of the present surroundings, I consider it (the educational upbuilding of the race) as a question which should strike every think ing and reflective mind as a most important concern. In fact it forms one of the surest uplift ing agencies of wvhich we can conceive, in fuencing the race from the desporndent depths of ignorance, into the dazzling sun light of the noonday s'un of intelligence antd respcetibility and importance.I The pa -ent owes it to his child as a part preparation to occupy usefal liaces and perform worthy oflies in his day anid gen erations in the sphere within waich he is destined to move. We are now receiving from the public bounty, that instructiona for the full time it will be able to afford u3, at the hands of those whose eflorts in the public service, are worhy of commendation. It is tre' that 1 have niot been within the narrow liit of our little growing tov.n for a siege of time, ye: though short the time, I have not failed to study the maany advan tages here- offe-red the race, and the even handed justice and candor with which they are dealt, but to feel piroud of the liberal spirit exhibited. I have directe-d special attention to the ed ucational work only, with oth~ers incidental.! and feel as to this, thorougitdy convinced that fromi -' - h tads of such gentlemen as Mr. W. J. t..ark, Mr-. Connor, Maj. P. G.: Benbow, Mr. Conyers. and the younger gentlemen, B. S. Dinkins, Esq., Prof. YNet tks andi others, who havt Thown almost a sacrifice of time .ad effort in rendering ef - ilent the public instru.ction, all that they can do. Some of the gentlemuen above nam ed have often expressed to me the desire which they entertain to repair and make habitable and comfor-table the public school for the colored citizens, but deplore the absence of funas. But not tiring, being vigilant, feeling concious of the responsibility which -est-! ed upon them as public ouicers, they wel comned the opp~ortunity which brought into their hands as trustees, some means, some funds by a hich their desires could be par-j tially carried into effectual execution. Thaey have done all that they could, andi even more than the most sanguine could have expectedi with the araount they had, and for which we sho,-li feel thankful. It now remains to be seen -.vhat the col ored people themselves will do to further taie work of ti' trustaes. The scyi. house is for the s(ole and sep arate benefit 'of the colored people, aind we should not be backward in putting into op. ertion some plan to raise funds to put ad ditienal needs into the school house. We innst remietuber always, that where public benefaction ends, privat-: effort shoultd begi.n;. when the State Zs I-:o to wards the di.scharge of her duty all she- can, the individnal wrho sees that the needs go further, sbould then begin to exert himaself. We should take an inwerest in that which is our own, and endeavor to beautify and1 adorn it as a mnonumnt to self improve mernt and self help, We have to lLern, above all things else, the stern and unyielding lesson, that self heip is tie great, the only true coul.tion of I growth, and it must siite, and dwarf the I ardor of a tuan or race, and deaden the hid den springs of enterprise, and chili the en ergetic feelin gs of all, to wait and depend upon the governmient to do wha: t u- in his own way ought to do or try. W' -u we fail to. do, to attain unto all that is req~u:rediof us, whethter it be in education, in ea~ure, in morals, in industrious and frugal and econ omial modne of life, in honneahln man hood, in chaste womanhood, will be charge able to us as a peoIle --as a race, and not to others. We need repairs in the school house for the comfort of the children whom we send there, such as a stove, blackboards, and scats, and without these we need make no complaint against our children not learning rapidly, as they are indisp;:nsable to such a place. The parents themselves should go to the s-hool and for themselves e'xaine, and if they should conclude to labor themselves there, don't expect any higher pay than the consciousness that they have done the ir du ty.
