WEDSilAY OCT. 19 J137 B. S. )INKINS, Editor. A call is published to-day from the president and secretary of the Clar endon Agricultural Society, for a meet ing of the farmers on the first 'Mon day in November. The most impor tant business to be transacted at the meeting will be the election of ive delegates to the annual farmers' State Convention, to cor vene in Columbia on Thursday the first of December. It is of the greatest consequtce that the meeting in Manning be attendled by a large number of tLa farmers. T he State Convention is intended, and no doubt will have, an immense influence in the succeeding political elections; and the five delegates to represent this county in that Convention should be selected for their wisdom, integrity. -nd prudence. And again, for the common good, they should by all means represent the views of a major ity of the farmers. Then it is the par amont duty of every farmer to be pres ent at the meeting in Manning, and take part, one way or the other, in the proceedings. How often are we reminded and impressed in this precocious age, with the admonition of our elders, pr:each ed to youthful ears, "never shun the advice and association of gray hairs, but rather accept their experienced counsel." The Young Men's Demo cratic Club of Charleston is exclusive ly juvenile, comparatively speaking, and the largest Democratic orgamza tion in tha State. It's commencement was under the happiest auspices, but already the want of the wisdom of ma ture age and judgment is felt. Like hot-headed youth, at a meeting last Friday night, the charge of fraud was insinuated in the management of an election. The result of this was an attack on Mr. J. A. Moroso, a weil known attachee of the News and Cou rier, by one of the members, second ed by two others. Mr. Moroso, claims to have been taken by surprise, and was badly worsted. He proposes now to appeal to the courts forredress. We predict the unfortunate occurrence would never have happened if the doors of this club had not been shut against old age, and experienced Dem ocrats, who never would have commit ted a fraud at the ballot box, or that *is never have been caught. Such a difficulty from such a cause in the Young Men's Democratic Club of 'Charleston, is not calculated to give it an influence in the State for good. Remember, gentlemen, the princi pie among the knights of the road. Go to the veterans of Democracy, they will tell you what it is. 'fhe Piedmont Exposition and the President's visit is attracting crowds to Atlanta. On Monday there were over 60,000 strangers in the city, and every train coming in added to the immense throng. The crowd is too large for the place to accommodate and men and wvomen were tramping the streets Monday night shelterless and with no place to go. A dispatch from there in the News and Courier says: The hotels and boarding-houses are fled to overflowing, and appli cants for lodgings iie being turned away by the hundreds. The commit tee on public comfort deelare that the resources of the whole city ha~ve been taxed to the utmost and that it is im possible to furnish lodgings for any more people. To-night, in the drench ing rain, trudging through the mud dy streets, are many women and child ren hunting for a place to sleep." This gloomy account of the discomforts to be endured, will likely keep many in tending to make the trip to see the President, at home. Atlanta. Oct. 17th. The President and his party arrived in Atlanta at half past 9 o'clock to-night, and were received by Governor Gordon and the reception committee, and an immense concourse of people. Gen. E. W.!Moise, of Sumter, con tributes a chapter tolthe history of -the late war on the battle of Benton ville, which is published on the out side of this paper. He gives to Hamp ton the praise of winning the battle, and preventing the distruction of Johnson's army. His description of the heroism displayed by Major T. G. Barker is grand and thrilling. rThe article is written in an elegant chaste style, and is doubly worth the reading. A special to the Columbia Register from Charlctie says. The trial of the case of young J. T. Green, of Sumter, S. C., chtarged with the burglary of W. J. Yates' residence in this city, -consumed yesterday and to-day-in the~ criminal court. At 9 o'clock this even ing, after a consultation of 30 minutes, the jury returned a verdict of not guil-' ti.. When the verdict was rendered thiere was loud applause. The editor of a Minneapolis paper was burned in etigy by a crowd of indignant citizens for this scandalous article about the President aaa ilrs.I Cleveland .aI was more the unjut calumny heaped on the President'. wife that frenz~iedt the citizens of Min neapois, than wha was sadabout the Executive.

I I Impaled on a Switch. Indianapolis, Ind. October 17. Ern est Teudieman, a Bee Line employee, was te victim yesterday of a horrible and peculiar accident. Whilo stand ing on a platform loaing coal on a locomotive tend2,er hisfoot slipped and he fell headforemost about :ifteen feet striking a switch target, which, enter ing at the shoulder, was driven clear through his body. It had to be filed off before he was extricated. It took 35 minutes to remove the knob and accumulated rust befor he coulp be lifted of the target, and during the entire time of this horiibte impale. ment, the man endured excruciating torture, conscious of his situation and the efforts being made for his rescue. The target was about an inch and a half in diameter. He was removed to the hospital, and notwithstanding his terrible injuries, physicians express hope of saving the unfortunate man' life. SALEM 30 TE\ M. Error: There is little news in thi section this week.

He and his family have the warmest sympathy of the entire comumunity in his sad misfortune. Mr-. William E3nddin and wife, two ot the oldest citizens of this community happened? to an accident a short ti: .a since. As the-r were crossing Pudding Swamp one day lait week on their way to their son's, Mr. W. J. B3uddin's, the mule they were driving took~ fright on one of tI e bridges and began back ing, and before he could be stepped, baceked the buggy against the railing, which being rotton, gave way, and the buggy was precip itated in to the mud and water eight or ten feet below. As the buggy wvent down Mrs. Buddin was caught under it, and received a severe wound. Mr. Buddin escaped bv jumping from the buggy before it went over. At list accounts Mrs buldin was thought to be improving.
