Mn. nxron.--My attention was called yesterday to an article in your paper of last week and I was at the same time in formed that I am the person alluded to there in. Your remarks were entirely personal and in justice to myself I ask a space in your paper to contradict. In the first place your informant (if I am correctly informed of who he is) is eternal ly scribbling or dabbling in somebody's bus ness to make mischief. He that told you that I made any remark such as you allude to in your paper about the TInFs utters an untruth. I did jestingly remark at Panola that I reckon I woukl have to buy the Eaierprise to get it stopped, and then I meant no dis respect to the proprietor or his paper, but did not feel able to take it and had asked that it be stopped. I admit that I was in arrears with your paper but had sent the money by Mr. J. H. T. Coulette to pay my dues before I had any knowledge of the at tack made being intended fi me in your paper, I therefore owe you nothing for the Times to date. You charge that I owed you $4.05 for the Enterprise prior to Sep. 1st, 1886. Your in sinuation that I get my reading matter without intending to pay for it is utterly false, and the utterance worthy only of yourself. I hold your acknowledgement as a gentleman for what it is worth for $4 paid to you at your office door when being locked out by your printer being gone to dinner. The same nearly 2 years Iexplain ed to your agent Mr. J. DuPre Alsbrook, and paid remainder antl hold his receipt. He also promised to remind you of the same, which he did for I hold his letter stating he had done as promised and had a promise from you if you found my claims incorrect you would at once write me. Never a word have I received. Now after nearly 2 more years has past you come out in full blast to tear up a character that I have ponded my life to defend. And now in short if you will keep your d n- mouth shut and your paper in Man ning peace may reign between us. A. P. Raors. Yes, Mr. A. P. Ragin is the man we alluded to last week, and our little squib seems to have gone home direct. We did not say that it was the Tiros that he wished to buy, but that it was the Tnirs or Enterpree. We are glad indeed to learn that be did not allude to the TIMs, for such a remark we do not like to have attached to our paper. We do not remember any of the circumstances referred to in reference to the payment of $4 for the Enterprise, and further we sent 2im at least two duns last year for that $4. Then we had sent him this ,rear two or three duns for the TIMEs. L'o none of these did he pay any at tention. But he sent us the money ast Saturday to pay for the TIMES in aull to date, and we are satisfied. We on't suppose Mr. Ragin intended any rofane language in his last paragraph, is no gentleman would be guilty of uch in a newspaper article. Tom Tisits Sumter. PAora, March 2tc.-A recent trip to Sum er affords me some chat for the Tnxxs. It uy be of some interest to your readers. to relate what I saw. The road is as sandy from here to Sumter, almost, as the African &esert. It is with much difficulty that a Loaded vehicle can make speed, tho horse ouffers under much weight especially during this rainy, wet spell. it puts him up to all e can do. There are many little towns by the road side growing up in trade and business. t seems as if progress marks tho well to do of the people, and they are striving vehe ently to gather strength with the hope and bright prospects of the Eutawville railroad, ach one, no doubt, expecting a depot, as the line follows this public road all along from Rosin Hill to Sumter, touching both Packsville and Privateer. Rosin Hill, our firn point, really seems to be a misnomer for really it is so near to Panola we often forget our locality. It is so called because of the large extensive busi ness of Messrs. Weeks & Milligan, who are largely at work in the turpentine. These gentlemen have been located here for three years, and during that time have made for themselves an enviable reputation. Rosin Hill will be considered a place of some note for it is destined to be the railroad center of this neighborhood. The next point of attraction to be touched by the new railroad to Sun'Nr is Packsville. It is akin to Rosin Hill as a sandy country, yet the lands are -a level as a marl bed, free from swamps, rivers, and lakes. A beauti ful town might easily be built here. There are three stores at;Packsville. ' Here lives that prince of country merchants, George.H. Curtis' He is of Northern birth, but long before the war came South and identified himself with all of her interests. He com menced business on a small scale as a car riage and buggy builder, but commencing the mercantile ousiness he abandoned the shop, and is now doing a very large and successful lien business. Mr. L. F. R. Lesesne has in position at this point his steam mill, under the super vision of Mess. James & Norris Richardson. For the present they only grind but will gin this fall. The next aint of notice that greets the traveler by the way is the mammoth farms of Messrs. John Tindal and Whitfield Wells, also the large store of Mr. Tindal; I believe Mr Wells does not merchandise. Both are running steam mills. They appear, from the. su,-onaing' to be the sole head lights at Privateer. Privateer is of ancient origin. Its noble founders are most of them dead. Sumter has much of the city appearance. Its growth for the past few years has been wonderful. We did not visit any of the stores and consequently can not say what the merchants are doing. I will start to-morrow for my old home in Orangeburg. The TIMEs will be furnished dots from the river side. Tox. Idalets. Ina, March 31.-After a silence of several weeks, I come with a few stray Idalets. During the past week or too I have been around solue, and noted the movements among the farmers. I have never seen oats, both fall and spring, look any more prom ising than they do now, notwithstanding the unfavorable weather. The farmers are generally well up with their work, and seem to be cheerful and hopeful. The indi'ations are that our farmers are on an up grade, and prosperous. Fears are entertain ed that the fruit crop will be comparatively a failure. Most of the farmers are now planting corn; the weather is against it; however. Cross ties are on the go all the time. Some-improvements are going on-a new building here and there, farms -being en larged, new. lands being brought into culti vation, &c., &c. J. Foreston Politics. FoBzsToN, April 2.-It is revolting to have to-condescend to the level of any one that uses such slanderous language as .Office Holder, but as he charges that B. A.told five lies I will review them. He says the meeting was duly advertised. I can't find any one who saw the notice. One gentleman says he saw him writing the notice, but does not think he posted it. I have found out the reason-he got the nomi nation. No one else who was present would have it, several refusing positively toaccept, among whom were two, either of whom would have received the entire support of the community. I still assert the third allegation is correct, that he could not get, for any office, as many votes as he has fin gers, if there was any opposition. ~ In the fourth allegation I should have said he him self went to the polls, instead of sending a deputy. Why did he not know beforehand that-it was the wrong day? He is a trial justice and has all the acts in his pesession, besides also being a member of the town council. Why was it, I repeat, he did not know it was the wrong day, until he found out that he had an opponent, who would get all the votes in the place except his own and one other. In the fifth place, he did have a demijohn to come to him the day be fore, bu. said to a gentleman he would not open it until after the election. He says he is done unless B. A. wishes to pursue it further. Then he will let the peo ple know why this uncalled for attack was made. That is exactly what B. A. wishes him to do. B. A. with all the citizens, one excepted, is opposed to a trial justice hold ing the office of intendant, and further, I don't think him qualified to hold either office, and he could not get it or any office again if left to the people. He cares naught for law; money is all he is after. Let me give Office Holder a small piece of advice: The more quiet he keeps, the better for him, as there have been some acts in his of ficial practice, that if made public, might not be to his advantage. The ball is open; he can use his own discretion as to pushing this matter further. B. A. The City of the Sand Hills. FtLros, April ist. Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright, The bridal of the earth and sky. -Herbert. Easter. Is not this beautiful Sabbath typical of Easter-a rising, a resurrection? The easter of the trees, their 'gnarled sires and tender scions fiorescent in their vest ments ofEaster! The Easter of fiowerets, arising from their mausoleums of frost and snow, beautifying the landscapes and per fuming each Caressing zephyr with the redolence of their Easter! The Easter of the feathered songsters who trill their matins of praise, their vespers of thanksgiving for bright and balmy Easter? The Easter of all) nature awakening to resurrection and bursting forth to join in the Heavenly har mony of this Easter! Each beauteous spot in and around the Sand Hills yielded its richest prizes, its sweetest incense, to adorn and commemorate the day. Picturesque St. Marks, clad in Easter garniture, fes tooned with holly and cedar, and fragrant with lovely flowers, -was beautiful almost beyond description. From orchestra to altar rail, from baptismal font to archway, from niche to dome, pendant wreaths, gar lands-and stars of evergreens and flowers drooped their lovely foliage, and perfumed the air with sweetness. Appropriate mot toes told in letters of emerald the trium phant story of the Resurrection. A vast congregation, the elit, and fashion, the beauty and chivalry of Statesburg, Sumter, anAganola, zninkgled with the people of Fulton to worship "in the beauty of boli nss," and to hear the Gospel-of Easter pro claimed by the eloquent rector. It afforded me delight to meet my genial friend, your versatile correspondent, "Oc casional." I approached Col. J. J.Dargan, ostensibly to remark upon the pleasantness of the weather, but really to draw forth his - bril liant powers of argument upon "free trade," and had only to inquire, "How do you like the Mills bill; do its provisions accord with your views?" when my object was accom plished. His eloquent and almost irrefuta ble logic "almost persuaded" me, forcing me to tear myself away, fearing an apostacy fronrmy doctrine of a tariff for the protec tion of American industries. Col. Dargan has many warm admirers at Fulton. Reform Among the Gamecocks SarrER, S. C., March 31.-Quite sensation was created here yesterda; by the arrest of fifteen negroes on charge of gambling. Sumter has fo a long time been infested with a se of negro loafers who, while they di no definite harm to the community have no visible means of support o maintain a livelihood by very ques tionable means, and it seems that a last some steps are being taken to ri< the city of these obnoxious loafers The parties arrested were placed ii the city guard house, and were ar ranged before the Council this morn ing, but owing to a lack of the essen tirl evidence to convict they were al discharged. It is hoped, however that some of the guilty parties can bi brought to justice, as a few convic tions of these worthless negroes wouk have a tendency to rid the communi by of them, and would certainly do s great. deal to clear up the moral at nosphere among our colored popu lation.
