Matmi iis, S. V., S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 6, 1888. The Farmers' Association. The Farmers' Association met last Satur day in the court house. The object of the meeting was to adopt the address of the farmers' State executive committee, pub lished in the Tns some weeks ago. In teresting addresses were made by Jas. E. Tindal, J. A. Mills, D. J. Bradham, and L. H. DesChamps. The association favors the establishment of a separate agricultural college. The entire meeting was pleasant and hesmonious, several members, in regl lar lovefeast style, testifying to the fact that it has done them good to be members of the association. Such meetings should be better attended by the farmers. We would infer from remarks by Mr. Des Champs and Mr, Tindal that candidates will have to express their views on certain subjects, before they can get the farmers' votes. Not a thing wrong in this. Every candidate should have some well defined gquMeation for the office he seeks, and ogtto be 'iln to let it be known. D . L. H. De~aa was elected letdpresi dent, and Mr. Jos. Sprott, Jr., secretary. The association is to meet again in July. Only Six Months for a Melnos ' Crime. W. H. Rembert, white, and Becky Frier son, colored, were convicted last week in Sumter, of living in open adultery, and each was seat to the penitentiary for six months. We are informed that only a few years ago Rembert married a beautiful young girl, and after living with her only a short while, "took up with"or "went back to" a black negressof ratherrepulsive charms, and wast ed his living on her, going so far even, in his immoral degredatian,- an to give her his wife's jewelry. His wife ap peared in the court house as a witness against him. And yet for all this, Judge Adrih, according to his idea of right and justice(?), saw fit to send each of them to the penitentiary only six months ! We cannot see the justicein sending a poor ignorant negro woman, the tool of this man's accursed black-heartedness. six months to the penitentiary ; while a white man of intelligence, a perjurer of his mari tal vows, is seat for only the same time. Ten years-a life sentence-would have been too short for him. The Winthrop Training School. Attention has already been called to the prospective examination, to be held at Man ning, on the third day of July next, of young women desirous of obtaining the beneficiary schlarship inthe aboved named Institution, to which this County is entitled, but the importance of the subject warrants us, we think, in adding something to what has already been published concerning it. The=Winthrop Training School for teach ers was incorporated for the purpose of ed ncsting and training persons desirous of following the profession of teaching. Ac cording to an act of the Legislature, pub lished in last week's T'Is, "there shall be appointed annually from every county in the State, ne young woman who has not the necessary means, to a beneficiary schol arship in said school." Here is a golden opportunity for some young woman; not having the necessary means, but posessing the talent and ambi tion to become thorough in the art of teach ing to do so. Such an one can have, if suc cesulypsing the eamination, the ad vantage oftis training school for nine months, free of cost, thtis to say, the State pain the expenses. The inmportance of5 suc .dB~t~eScan searcely be over-esti mated. Inl the departmients of brain! work as wellas manual labor, it is becom ing more and more the rule to employ such persons only as have been traine in the particular calling or profession in which servies are required; teaching is no excep-l tion to the rule, and, even now, the trained tachers are gradually, but surely, displac-i l those who have not been specially tramned in their professions. Let us hope that the young women of Clarendon will not be bakadi enter ing the competing list for the beneficiary scoasi; there are many ambitious. talented. and deserving young women in enr-county; let them come to the front. The Raynsworth Murder Trial. The main interest of the Sumter court last week centered in the case of the State against Walter I. Rarby and Peyton G. Bowman for the murder of Trial Justice Haynsworth last December. All parties be tng ready for trial, Wednesday was set for the day of trial. Wednesday it was found that the jury panel was not full, so the case was postponed till Thursday. Out of thir ty-six jurors, Thursday, only nine were se lected. Another adjournment till Friday, thattwenty additional jurors mightbe added to the p4'nei, was made, when :ne three re maining jurors were selected. 'The follow lug then constituted the jury: Harry Ryt tebrforeman, A. K. Sanders, D. M. Richardson, Geo. F. Epperson, C. L. With erspoon, Harry Addison, J. I. Br on, J. M. N. Wilder, E. F. Burrows, J. K.Brad ford, Jas. H. Chandler, J. A. Miller. Solicitor Gillantd and Attorney-General Earle appeared for the State, and Mr. WV. C. Benet, of Aboeville, Mr. Robert Aldrich, of~ Barawell, and Gen. E. W. Moise, of: Sum ter, for the defense. Examining witnesses continued Friday sad Saturday, till 7 o'clock Saturday night. Eight hours was then al lowed for argument, four for the State and four for the defense. Eachr of the five dis tinguished lawyers spoke, and the argument of each is said to have been a masterly ef fort. Just before 12 o'clock Saturday night, Gen. Earie directed the attention of te Judge othe tact that the Sabbath was ap proaching the day set apart by God for rest, and aked that the court adjourn over Sunday. The judge left the matter with the jury, who decided to go on, and the ar guments continued till 3} o'clock Sunday morning. The Judge then charged the .ju ry, who, after twenty-five minutes' consid eration, returned a verdict of not guily. Court was then adjourned to this morning, as the judge's daughter was to have been married Monday night, and he desired to be present. The case against Keels and Pennington, cagdwith the same offense, the murder of Haysworth, will probably 'be tried or nol. prossed iLisweek.. In either case the result will be same-acquittal. The Toozs last January foneshadowed the exact result, when it said, "the triad will very probably be postponed to the May term of court, at which time the whole party will be acquitted." There are severs? other indictments agai*t the above parties, which will prob ably be disposed of this week. The Democratic National Convention met yesterday. It is probable that Cleve land will be renominated cit.' voce, and that Thurman. of Ohio, will be nominated for vice-president. The next session of the Pharmaceuti< al Association of South Carolina will be held July 25 in Greenville. Summerton High School. Svmmeros, May 26.-Mr. Editor:-While you are publishing letters from various parts e of the county, I have thought that you might p not object to one from Summerton, though o it may not be to you either interesting or s profitable. o Yesterday was appointed for a picnic at 1 "Scotts Lake,"given by the friends and pa- r trons of Summerton High School to the a teacher and pupils of the school As soon t) as the picnic was proposed for the pleasure lI of the children, the Messrs. Cantey, two of b our worthy patrons, who are always ready f, for a generous act, especially when a little tl "fun and frolic" is involved, proffered n their wagons and teams to those of the n children who had no means of transports- t] tion as well as others who enjoyed this rustic ii style of traveling, and early yesterday d morning the two omnibuses were in Sum- t< merton to receive their precious freight. a Imagine a huge frame made for hauling fod- tl der, oats, straw, etc., about the plantatioa, a mounted upon an ordiniry.plantation wag- t< on, drawn by fine mules, with "Cuffie" for a driver, and you have the "turn out," before a your mind. Soon each "buss" had its load a on, and the driver "cracked his whip" for I Scotts Lake. I Arriving about 11 o'clock, they found a S good many of their friends and patrons of o the school already on the ground, and the d next three hours were spent in riding on ti the lake, playing base ball, jumping the p rope, &c., by the young folks, while the i more elderly discussed the farms, railroad, n and other various topics until dinner was a announced. This was spread on beautiful cl table linen on the ground, and when the p baskets were brought together, was all that d the most fastidious could wish for, embrac- ti ing every thing from rice, ham, and cabbage, ti potatoes, &c., to the most delicate pies, al cakes, and lemons in profusion. Very soon ( every mouth was stopped, or rather, filled ti and re-filled, until appetite was fully sati- rE ated. p Soon the young folks betook themselves of to their sports again and your correspon- w dent, at about 4 o'clock, took up the "line of ei march" for home, having spent a most pleas- 3J ant and enjoyable day, as did all the others u from whom he has had an expression of L opinion. ti Our school in Summerton is not so large ti as formerly, nevertheless we have a good L school, with a first class teacher, Mr. (leo. k H. Edwards, who has deservedly won the ti respect and confidence of both parents and p scholars, and has proved himself a worthy S successor of Prof. J. C. Lanham, with whom s the school commenced four years ago. w Allow me to mention here in connection with the school, the Carlisle Literary Soci- fit ety, originated by Prof. Lanham, while to teacher, and named in honor of his former w instructor, Dr. Jas. H. Carlisle, of Wofford a College. Soon after its organization, the o: Society numbered fifteen members, but has tc been reduced to seven in consequence of si members leaving for college or other schools, tc etc. About two weeks since I attended by b invitatiof a meeting of the society, and is must say, it was to me truly gratifying to s hear the secretary read out from the min- rt utes "57th meeting." To think that seven li boys, the most of whom are scarcely fifteen A years old, and not one that reached his ma- u jority, should persevere under most adverse p circumstances for fifty-seven meetings, and o conduct them in parliamentary style and d such perfect order, was to me indeed a cl peasure, as well as evidence that our boys S a deserve more encouragement than the pa trons bestow upon them. cl I am quite sure that many of our older S citizens (your corespondent included) could not have presided and called up business b with more dignity, than did the president 01 on that occasion, a boy of about fifteen, if a that old. I asked one of the members if P they had any "code of ethics" or book of it parliamentary rules to guide them. He re plied only a few rules in manuscript fur- t nished at their organization by Prof. Lan- fr ham, for which he certainly should receive . their lasting gratitude. Let me here say to the young men and ' boys outside of the school, that here is the a nucleus of a society you may join, and I with them learn business habits which will ht benefit you through life, causing you to feel easy and unembarrassed, whereas, without such training, at public meetings of any P character, which occur so frequently in ~ this "free country" of ours, we sit for the a' most pert as one of the crowd, not knowing what to say or when to say it. Give the Society your name, and attend ti the meetings as often as you can, and learn, a) not so muchfrom them, as teith them, and al you will be mutually benefited. B. N PROSPECTUS. The World-Budget Company respectfully b< announces to the people of Charleston and to South Carolina that its daily and weekly N newspaper publieations will be issued under ix the company's sole ownership and control Si from this date. ti Having arranged for able editorial man- s agement, the aim and purpose of The ci World -Budget Compnany will be not only to ti present the latest news from all parts of the ?M earth, but to render public service by fair, cc impartial criticism of matters of public in- es terest; condemning the wrong and asserting tl: and defending the right. ix For many years a second morning news- sa paperhbas been needed in Charleston. Its ci intelligent populace desired that both sides of of every important question should be fair- ci ly considered and the opportunity of candid tb expression be freely given on all public to- cf pics, so that the people might be emanci- pl pated from the mischievous supremacy of a pt singe morning publication that is liable, br and very apt, to suppress all views at vari ance with its narrow or selfish policy. Telegraphic and local news of importance will be found in both the World and Budget more fully reported than in any other news paper issued in this city or state. Our papers will maintain that the present LC national tariff, founded upon necessity for ri revenue which no longer exists, should be r revised upon 'a basis of fair trade, thus giv- i ing protection to industries that need pro tection, to the extent that Amnerican labor ti shall not be crippled or brought into rivalry al with cheap foreig labor. In general 'etis the newspapers issued by The Wol-Budget Company will be n strictly in accord with the patriotic tenetseof 0' the Democratic party of South Carolina, and al the whole country. Having no friends to I conciliate, or enemies to punish, the busi ness and editorial aims, of The World and Budget will be to use every proper infin- 81 ence in fostering and augmenting the best ri interests of this city and the state-. 'With these honest, straightforward decla- - rations, we solicit the active support of ac home constituency which is largely inter- m ested in the establishment of progressive, fr sharply-edited journals that are, conducted g for the benefit of the people of Charleston and South Carolina, and the maintenance of the public welfare. al We shall always seek to faithfully serve al the people, for their discrimination and mor al support will prove that it is not news alone, nor business' enterprise, nor even literary ability, that makes success in the al newspaper world. It is the recognition by n: the people of an earnest desire to serve them in the creation of a moral force that shall tend to the correction of abuses and the reform of governmental administrations, al Charleston, S. C., May 22, 1888. b b PERtSONAL.r Mr. N. H. Frohlichstein, of Mobile, Ala., s' writes: I take great pleasure in recommend- h ing Dr. King's New Discovery for Consump- fr tion, having used it for a severe attack of. Bronchitis and Cata'rrh.

Tra bottles free at Din Summerton-Panola Railroad Racket. Paor A, May 28.-Mr. Editor:-It is reas nable to infer from an article in your last aper, signed "Summerton," that the people f that prosperous city want a railroad. A hort time ago Summerton was so sanguine f becoming a R. R. center, that her citizens >oked and talked as though they had al eady received the blessing. Inducements ere being offered to the country folks (as ley were pleased to dub them) by offering >ts for sale at $100, and upwards. But ow changed Summerton seems, when in yrmed that it will not be practicable to run :e Eutawville R. R. through it. Their ewspaper representative "Summerton" im ediately set up a howl of complaint against ie B. R. president, Col. Barkley, for talk ig in an oscillating manner, and lack of ecision, and others for not being willing be led into Summerton, and taught the rt of buying cotton and selling goods by ie thrifty merchants of that city. Now it ppears to us, that "Summerton" lost his imper and sense of propriety as well (be use self interest prompted him to do so) -hen he makes. such monstrous charges, -ithout a shadow of facts to sustain them. am informed by those who were with Col. arkley on nearly every trip he made to ummerton, and Clarendon, in the interest f the R. R., that he always expressed a esire to suit and accomodate his road to re best interest of the people, and was articularly anxious to go to Summerton. nt, said from first to last, that he could ot do so, unless the people of Summerton ould lend a helping hand (which they de ined to do), it being out of a direct line to oints of interest to the R. R. I can see no eception in this. Summerton then reviews re cause of the president's last determina on to run by Mr. Levi's and Panola thus: :out 2800 bales of cotton are brought on what he calls) the new projecting route, by e Messrs. Levi and Brock, ("where there no competition,") which means at unfair ices. Now, I have never heard of either these gentlemen taking advantage of the ant of competition. It is a fact, that sev al buyers have tried to compete with Mr. [. Levi, at Wrights Bluff, but had to give p the enterprise, being driven off by Mr. evi's fair and liberal prices; which were te gane he paid before competition went ere. The other two gentlemen Mr. D. evi and Mr. Brock, had to compete with [r. M. Levi, and paid the same prices, less ie hauling, which is an item of some ex ense. But if the R. R. will only go to ammerton, all of these gentlemen, from rif respect and duty to their customers, ould be obliged to go there too. And Summerton" would teach them how to pay tl prices for cotton, and not take advan ge of the poor and ignorant, "just as he ould do if he lived out of town." "Sum Lerton" says further: "I can see the same position to Summerton, that keeps a cot on buyer from Manning, and who are the ifferers? Why every man who has cotton sell, and goods to buy." I have never eard any one say, Mr. Editor, that there any advantage in going to Summerton to l cotton or buy goods, and that is one ason why we country people would not ke to be forced to go there to do business. gain, it appears to me, that it would be an precedented phenomenon, for this pros erous section along the now projected line BL R., where two or three merchants han le thousands of bales of cotton, and mer randise in proportion, to be dragged into ammerton with all their business, a place here probably a dozen bales of cotton range hands during the season. Why not ammerton come over here? I am impressed with the idea, that the ilders of railroads, and particularly those the Eutawville R. R., are level headed id sensible men. They don't propose to ry social visits with their road, (for such would be to go to Summerton.) but go here they can best subserve the interest of te people, without detracting too much om their own interest. "Summerton" seems to know now pre. sely where the Eutawville B. R. will run, rving laid out the towns and named them ong the route. I must confess the truth, do nott know where it is going, Col. Bark. y never having made any positive promis over here. But, I hope before the 4th ry of July next, we will see the iron horse rancing through our section of the county, iereby increasing our facilities for travel id transportation, both north and south. 3umerton" seems disposed to be sarcas 3, when he says, "'we see in our imagination o little towns called Leviton and Brockton ong the Eutawville R. R., and as we stand Badgerville [a new name for Summer n, and look down the Wilson tram road, see a beautiful town called M. Leviton." ow, it appears that the latter is the only autiful town of the three. I suppose its aty is reflected from the city of Summer n, the great business center of the country. ow, in all this we do not intend to roftect, the slightest upon the good people of mmerton. WYe have always held them in e highest esteem, for their christianity d morality, being unexcelled by any oth section of the country for such. But oh ! .eir newspaper representative says, the esrs. Levi and Brock buy cotton without npeition, which means to make all they n out of it. by taking overy advantage ey can get. and says, "of course if I were these gentlemen's places, I would do the .me." Now we think we have proven con usively that these gentlemen have plenty competition, and pay fair prices. This nidid acknowledgement by "Summerton," at he would do what he suspected others doing, "skin me" if he but got the chance, ~rsudes us, that a goet fias gotten into the *aceful lambfold of Sumnmerton.

Gentlemen: I feel in duty bound you, as well as to all sufferers by eumatism, to write you my expe nce with this terrible disease, and e use of Swift's Specific, hoping Lat these words will be beneficial to 1 who suffer as I did. About six weeks ago, whilo at busi eass, I was suddenly attacked with teruciating pains in my feet, knees id hands. So severe the attack that took to my bed immediately, and in ro or three days my joints were iollen to almost double their natu I size, and sleep was driven from e. After suffering the most excru ating pain for a week, using lini ents and various other remedies, a end, who sympathised with my lpless condition, said to me: "Why don't you get Swift's Specific id use it? I will guarantee a cure, id if it does not the medicine shall >t you nothing." I at once secured the S S. S.- and ter using it the first day, had a quiet ight and refreshing sleep. In a eek I felt greatly benefitted. In uee weeks I could sit up and walk bout the room, and after using six ottles I was out and able to go to usiness. Since then I have been gularly at my post of duty, and and on my feet from nine to ten ours a day, and am entirely free -om pain. These are the plain and mple facts in my case, and I will eerfully answer all inquires relativej iereto, either in person or by mail. 11W. 18th street, New York City.
