Our schnol opened yesterday, but (owing to the measles which have prevailed to a considerable extant recently) the outlook was not what bir. Lesesne expected. The weather too was very unfavorable.

The festival at Panela on Friday last is reported by 4ll as a most delightful enter taimment-in its every feature. The day was bright and balmy; the crowd large and in the most joyous Xmas humour; the pa rade of the troops fine and imposing; the music by the band charming; and the ar ray of beauty simply intoxicating. The ball that night passed off with great eclat. The academy presenting a floor surface of nearly fifty feet~ square, was brillintly lit by electric lamp procured for the occasion; and wit a a hundred lovely forois of the fair representatives of Sumter, Man ning, Summerton, Fulton, and Panola gracefully moving to the strains of the most fascinating music, presehted a most charring scene indeed.

Taking everything in we have had a hard year both for the farmer and merchant, crops were short and collections not good. We are all disappointed in the way things turn out. All we can do is to pull our coats off and try and make it up in 1889. The Christmas trade has been very good. The Presbyterians had a Christmas tree for their Sunday-school at Maj. Briggs's on last Thursday night. All present had a pleasant time. Panola's entertainment on Friday was a pleasant affair. Quite a large crowd, and everybody seemed to enjoy themselves.

Auditor Bradham requests us to publish the following: The attention of this office hats been call ed to the fact that in some counties of the State the Auditors have been in the habit of distributing loosely the returns for per sonal property, and allowing individuals to fill out the same, sending the said returns to the County Auditors without the oath which attaches to the same being adminis tered. This practice must be stopped, and each and every tax payer will be required to appear before the respective County Auditors, either by themselves, their agents or assigns, guardians, trustees, administra tors, &c., and answer the various questions as appear upon the return. And the Coun ty Auditors will put these questions catego rically to each and every person making a return of personal property. When the said return is made the Auditorwill admin ister the oath and swear the party making the return in each and every instance. A FAMILY BLESSING. Simmons Liver Regulator, the favorite home remedy, is entirely vegetable, and is the purest and best family medicine that is compounded.

Demand the genuine, having the Z-stamp on wrapper. , 0 While the Lamp Holds Out. Niles G. Parkez, of somewhat unsavory reputation in South Carolina in the days of good stealing, sends us a copy of the Iowa Citizen, a stirring Democratic journal pub lised in Charles (it Iowa,-of which our ierei :vilas G., is the editor. In looking over the paper we find among the Cleveland Presidential Electors the fol lowing, marked: "Fourth District-N. G. Parker, of Floyd county." Here is literally a case of repentance and better life over which we are prepared to sing that good hymn: "While the lamp holds o-it to barn The vilest sinner may return." We congratulate our old friend and sinner, and sincerely hope that he may after all, "get there."-Columbia Register. The Great Regulator of the Liter. The success of that great Liver remedy, Simmons Liver Regulator, has tempted un scrupulous manufacturers to place on the market an imitation of it, which is calcula ted to deceive the public, as it bears no re lation to the genuine except in the similar ity of the package. The genuine Simmons Liver Regulator has the red Z on the front of wrapper, and is regarded everywhere as the best Liver Medicine in the world. Morning News, Savannah, Ga. DIA POWDER A bsolutely Pure.
