The State librarian says he sent them by express April 12th. The county commissioners last Fri day paid out nearly seven hundred dollars; and more than two hundred dollars of public school money was paid out last week. A novel legal question may be raised by the enforced idleness of convicts in New York prisons, consequent on the failure of the Legislature and Governor Hill to agree on a measure for setting them at work. The attor ney for an inmate at the Sing Sing prison proposes to go to court and ask for the discharge of his client on the ground that, being sentenced for a term of years at hard labor, he is being illegally held in confinement without labor. The convict himself has prompted the inquiry whether he cannot be discharged on the ground, and asserts that being idle is killing him by inches. School Picnic at Juneville. The Academy, the Grove School, and the Jordan school will unite next Friday, at Juneville, in a picnic. p Centennial Services. At nine o'clock yesterday morning quite a large number of our citizens assembled in the Methodist church to engage n a service of prayer and praise. Mr. Mood made an excellent address, which was followed by several songs and prayers, after which the Lcongregation was dismissed. Manning Farmers' Alliance. The Manning Farmers' sub-alliance will meet in the court house next Saturday after noon at 3 o'clock. The rituals and other things necessary for a meeting have arrived. All persons desiring to join will please be on hand promptly at 3 o'clock. Early Closing. The merchants of Camden and several other places have signed petitions to close their stores at 6 o'clock in the afternoon from May 1st to September 1st, so as to give their employees time for recreation and pleasure during the warm spell. We trust that Manning will not be behind in this matter, and that we will have the pleasure of announcing the fact at an ecrly day. Mr. Hudgins's Prize Corn. Mr. R. R. Hudgins is working hard for the corn prize, and his friends think he will get it. He ordered his corn from Maine at a cost we think of ten dollars a bushel, and the party who sold him the seed corn has offered $100 additional if he ets the prize. This makes $1200 in view for him--worth trying for.. Mr. Hudgins kindly presented a number of gentlemen in this place each with an ear of the corn. State Supreme Court. In the Supreme Court, in Columbia, last Monday, the following appeal cases from the third circuit were heard: Henry C. DeLaine vs. David W. Alder man. Mr. Chas. Boyle was heard for ap pellant, Messrs. J. S. Wilson and J. F. hame for respondents, Mr. M. 0. Gallu chat for appellant in reply. The State vs. Eliza Colclough. Mr. M. C. Galluchat was heard for appellant, Mr. Solicitor Wilson for the state, respondent, Mr. Galluchat in reply. Cleveland's Sympathy for the South. Ex-President Cleveland has subscribed fifty dollars to the fund inaid of the Con federate home at Austin, Texas, and has written as follows concerning it: "I am in full sympathy with this enterprise and want to contribute to its success. It ap peals to the broad humanity which ought to engage the sympathy of every right thinking citizen. Surely, neither predju dice nor passion should be allowed to in terfere with the exercise of charity toward the unfortunate, nor with the tender of cheerful aid to the needy an d suffering." The County Solid. Tbe financial affairs of Clarendon are getting on a solid financial basis. All of last year's indebtedness has been paid in full, and a balance left in the treasury; and there is or ought to be enough money in the treasury nota to pay every cent of past indebtedness and bonded indebtedness. This will probably be paid within the next two months. By next January the county will have paid entirely out of debt. Our last board of county commissioners were excellent officers, and the present board will probably make egnually as good a record. Clarendorf county is solid. How to Teli her Age. Girls of a marriageable age do not like to tell how old they are, but you can find out by following the subjoined instructions, the young lady doing the figuring: Tell her to put down the number of the month in which she was born, then to multiply it by 2, then toadd 5,then tollmultiply it by 50, then toadd her age, then to subtract 365, then to al 115, then tell her to tell you the amount he has left. The two figures to the right willtell you her age and the re mainder the month of her birth. For ex ample, the amount is 822, she is 22 years old and was born in the eighth month (August.) Try it. Maj. Richard I. Manning. Richard I. Manning. died at his home-in Orangeburg county, Saturday, April 27th. The .News and (bur'ier says of him: "Major Richard L. Manning, the news of whose death reached here late last night, was the eldest child of Governor John L. Manning and was 51 years old. At the beginning of the war he enlisted in the Manning Guards and he served on Gen. Joseph E. Johnston's staff with the rank of major. After the war he lived in Baltimore until five years ago, when he moved to True Blue plantation, Orangebu~g county. He was in every way a true man, brave and chivalrous, but gen tle in the extreme. Hundreds of warm friends and admirers mourn his death." - Summerton News. SUMXEoN, April 29.---The farmers in this section are through plantir; cotton but rain is very much needed to bring up a Dr. T. L~. Burgess who has been quite ail ing for several days is able to be out again. It is generally understood that Texas po nies will buck and kick. Msssrs. B. & L. have one that beats the record on kicking. It has kicked one of its feet off, and is now going on three. It seems to be doing well, and will give a passer by a reminder with the stub. Wilson is making fiue progress with his road, and we understand the Eutaw R. R. is making fine headway p-itting down the trestle in the Santee swamp. Mr. G. E. Pritchet has finished his contract for the ties for the ten miles graded on this side of the river. Rev. Mr. Wannamaker preachedl a fine sermon yesterday in the Methodist church. He is one of the ablest preachers in the S. . Conference. Mr. Heber Wannamaker and wife are visiting at the Rev. T. E. Wan namaker's. Dr. G. A. Huggins and Mrs. E. K. Reed er have been visiting relatives in this place. Rev. Fete Burgess paid his family a flying Ivisit last week. Miiss Carrie Conyers is via iting relatives in the village. C. Rent .and Supply Liens for sale at The Picnic at Pinewood. The picnic last Saturday at Pinewood, the present terminus of the Manchester and Augusta railroad, was a delightfully ly pleasant occasion. The depot, just fin ished, was decorated, within and without, with evergreens and choice flowers, and the floor was all that could be desired to while away the winsome hours; and every possi ble advantage was taken to make this the pleas'ntest picnic of the year. About five hundred persons were present, represent ing almost every section of Clarendon and Sumter. Cupid was busy too, and we saw signs of his unerring aim. This section of the county is noted for lovely women and hindsome men, and on this occasion the claim was strongly verified. Few such gath erings can boast of so much beauty and loveliness. Eyes, bright and bewitching, seemingly captured the hearts of brave men, and made them captives at the feet of beauty. One Leart, however, seems ob durate, and refuses to stay a captive. He yields for the time being, but alas! for so gallant a soldier, he has so often deserted his better impulses when away from the pierc ing glances of Cupid, that now he is har dened in his bachelordom, and is well nigh invulnerable to the blind god's darts. Such should not be. Mrs. Edwards was caterer of the occasion, and had her tables supplied with an abun dance of food and fruit. By a misunder standing, the passenger train failed to bring the ice, and the consequence was there was no prospect for ice cream, but the liberality of the railroad was equal to the emergency, and a special train was sent to Sumter for the ice. Everything went on as merrily as a mar riage bell till six o'clock, when the excursion train bore off a considerable part of the crowd. As the train moved off, three times three cheers were given for Pinewood; and then as far as could be heard came the sound of singing a fond adieu to the hospi. talities and plea~ures of the day. Shortly after all left for their homes, and one of the most successful picnics ever held in this county was a thing of the past. Those of Manning who went on the train had their pleasure narred, however, for the excursion train reached Sumter just ten minutes after the fast train had left, and the Manning ex cursionists had to remain in Sumter twen ty-four hours, till the next train. Pinewood can lay claim to little natural beauty of situation, but judging from the rapid progress and development made within the past four months, since it be came a railroad station, it has a bright and prosperous future. The depot is located near St. James Methodist church. Already there are several stores, a large and well conducted saw mill, and one of the largest, handsomest, and nicest furnished depots we ever saw in the country. The railroad company evidently expect a big outcome of this place. We learn that the freight and passenger traffic on this new railroad, the Manchester and Augusta, largely exceeds the estimate of the railroad company, and is constantly increasing. Freight from Charleston is delivered at Pinewood at or about the same rates as from Charleston to Manning. The railroad, as all railroads of the Atlantic Coast Line, is built in the best manner, for safety and dispatch. The Eu tawville railroad will also pass through thi section of country; and we learn that the Wilson and Summerton railroad may also come into this section. All the western part of Clarendon"will have ample facilities and opportunities for development, and as it is the finest section of the county we may expect great things. A Letter to the Colored People. Enrron Tms.s-Fearing that a portion of our colored citizens do not know or un derstand the establishment of a graded school to include both races, and the bene fits of so commendable a system of educa tion are to be placed within the reach of their sons and daughters, I would specially call their attention thereto, and urge upon them to show that interest and concern, which if realized, in this the greatest boon to their advancement and proper develop ment. 4 Let every colored citizen, who possesses the property qualification, signal his good wishes bydoing what he can in this direc tion. Let them.be present at the meeting to be held at the court house on Saturday next and like a people of good sense and intelli gence endeavor to uphold the arms of the movers of this geat eterrise RoBr. A. S'TEwART. Wilamsburg News. Four hundred and thirty tons of commner ial fertilizers have beenx delivered at the de pot at Kingstree this season. Mrs. Sarah G. Brockinton, widow of the late W. R. Brockinton, died at her home, five miles from Kingstree, on the 21st inst. Dr. Chapman killed a mad-dog in the neighborhood of Johnsonville a few days ago. The dog had a convulsion near where the doctor was standing close to his buggy. As soon as the paroxysm was over the dog made for the Dr. who escaped by jumping' into his buggy. He procured a gun and killed the dog. Mr. S. W. McIntosh's little boy got his leg broken a few days ago. He was riding in abuggy with his uncle, who drove up to a gentleman's house and left him in the buggy by himself. The horse ran off, threw him out, and broke his leg. A year or two ago another one of Mr. McIntosh's little boys got his leg broken while playing with his brothers. Mr. Webb Altman, of Prospect, lost a child under distressing circumstances last Saturday. It was about fifteen months old. and having some corn in its hand it put a grain into its mouth, which passed down its throat and lodged in the windpipe. The child lived two days, gasping for breath all the time, until it became so weak that it died of exhaustion.-igstree Record. "TTRED ALL THE TIME," Say many poor men and wo:nen, who seem overworked, or are debilitated by change of season, climate or life. If you could read the hundreds of letters praising Hood's Sarsparilla which come from people whom it has restored to health, you would be con vinced of its merits. As this is impossible, why not try Hood's Sarsaparilla yourself and thus realize its benefit? It will tone and build up your system, give you a good appetite, overcome that tired feeling and make you feel, as one woraan expresses it, "like a new creature." A $40 Sewing Machine Wrven Away. We have a beautiful sewing machine in our office that we are going to GIVE away to some one of our paid up sub scribers. The machine is worth $40. Every subscriber of the Tnrss, whose sub scription is paid up to or beyond July 4th, 1889, will have a chance to get it. WVe have not got our plans fully matured yet, bu' we are certain that we are going to celebrate the Fourth of July by giving away to a paid up subscriber to the Trusse a $10 sewing machine. The people of Clarendon know us well enough to know that this is a genuine offer and that we will perform our promise. Full Local Tales of a Hundred Years Ago. Mn. Enruon:-During the year 1780 the paper currency of South Carolina had be come so worthless that it took $700 to buy a pair of shoes. Our "Partisans" were not regular troops, received no pay, and, as I said in last week's article, were called to gether when needed for a fight. After the fall of Charleston Col. White commanded this section of country, and captured some of Tarleton's men near Monck's Corner, and attempted to bring them off by the way of Lenuds Ferry. Tarleton pursued and overtook them at the ferry, recaptured the British prisoners, and came near capturing Col. White and his men. They made their escape by swimming the Santee River, leav ing behind their horses, guns, ammunition, and everything they possessed. At this time Tarleton, the British cavalry leader, who was like Sheridan in the Rebellion, allowed his troops to commit deeds of violence, thefts, etc., and when it was arousing indig nation among his friends, he charged it to the Tories and Indians. These deeds of cruelty by Col. Tarleton's men brought many men to Marion's help, and the scarc ity of powder and ball, swords, etc., was so great that Marion sent all over the country to gather up the pewter spoons and basins, etc., owned by the farmers, and turned them into ball; and also the saw mills were stop ped and the saws made into swords for the use of his men. Often times Marion would engage the British with less than three rounds of pow der, and with part of his men in the rear, un armed, waiting to be supplied by a dead comrade or what they would capture from the British, When victorious they se cured amunition for the next fight. There were many engagements in this section about this time that history never recorded, and which is only cherished in local tradi tion. After the battle of Camden the Brit ish commander sent by a strong military escort 150 American prisoners to Charles ton. The "Swamp Fox" ever on the alert recaptured them near Nelsons ferry on the Santee, placed the guns in the hands of the American prisoners, made the British pris oners, and hurried them off to North Caro lina, where they would be out of reach of their friends. Marion's men when possible would have their coats lined with red, and when they thought it would be to their advantage they would play "turn coat." On one occasion in this neighborhood they were in this con dition when old uncle Billy Bidgill, too old to take an active part in the fray, placed himself in a position on the road side to "take off" their leader Tarleton as he thought. Fortunately he was discovered and heard the cry "Don't shoot! don't shoot! Uncle Billy, we are friends!" British money and timid hearts made Tories of many of our people then. Very few Tories were honest in their purpose be cause of love for the mother country, and were paid by the British large sums for their influence, and in some instances these Tories would "hold with the hare and run with the hounds," and Marion made many successful dashes by being informed by them of the intention of the British. The great Franklin said he became learn ed because he was not ashamed to ask questions. This scribe in his early days asked many questions about these things, took notes and preserved them, until in his imagination he can see this country as it was then: the deer bounding through the forest; wild turkeys on almost every hill side; fish and game in abundance; our peo ple strong and hearty, with bright hopes of liberty before them, daring to do and die for freedom. The State then had about 60,000 inhabitants; now 1,000,000. Mr. Ed itor, who would have thought after all these things that that grand old hero, Francis Marion, would be allowed to lie in his na tive soil in the midst of his people, unhon ored and unwept, without even a cheap marble shaft to mark the place of his bur ial? Unless this article weary you. I will write again. - Oza CruIzEN CONVINCING PROOF. In many instances it has been proven that B. B. B., (Botanic Blood Balm), made by Blood Balm Co., Atlanta, Ga., will care blood poison in its worse phases, even when all other treatment fails. A. P. Brunson, Atlanta, Ga., writes: "I had 24 running ulcers on one leg and 6 on the other, and felt greatly prostrated. I be lieve I actually swallowed a barrel of medi ine, in vain efforts to cure the disease. With little hope I finally acted on the urg ent advice of afriend, and gt a bottle of B. B. B. I experienced a cage, and my despondency was somewhat dispelled. I kept using it until I had taken sixteen bottles, and all the ulcers, rheumatism, and all other horrors of blood poison have dis appeared, and at last I am sound and well again, after an experience of twenty years of torture." Robt. Ward, Maxey, Ga., writes: "My disease was pronounced a tertiary form of blood poison. My face, head, and shoul ders were a mass of corruption, and finally the disease began eating my skhll bones. My bones ached; my kidneys werc deranged; I lost flesh and strength and life became a burden. All said I must surely die, but nevertheless, when I had used ten bottles of B. B. B. I was pronounced well. Hun dreds of scars can now be seen on me. I have now been well over twelve months." Depraved Society. "Society" in Chicago is now enjoying one of the most exquisite divorce trials that has ever been held in that city of divorces. The parties to the suit are Mr. and Mrs. Lesli Carter. The evidence is so outrageous tb even the Chicago papers refuse to publish it except in part, and society is so anxious to attend the trial that even a Ch.icago Judge swore in a lot of constables who guard the approaches to the court house and keep out women and children.

What is Scrofula It is that impurity in the blood, which, accumu lating in the glands of the neck, produces un sightly lumps or swellings; which causes painful running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which developes ulcers in the eyes, cars, or nose, often causing blindness or deafness; which is the origin of pimples, cancerous growths, or many other manifestations usually ascribed to " humors." It is a more formidable enemy than consumption or cancer alone, for scrofula combines the worst possible featuresof both. Being the most ancient, It is the most general of all diseases or affections, for very few persons are entirely free from it. How can it be cured ? By taking Hood's Sarsa parilla, which, by the cures it has accomplished, often when other medicines have failed, has proven itself tobeapotent and peculiar medicine for this disease. For all affections of the blood Hood's sarsaparlflaisunequafled, andsome of the curesithas effected are really wonderful. If you suffer from scrofula in any of its various forms, be sure to give Hood's Sarsaparilla a trial. Hood's Sarsaparilla Soldbyandruggists. $1; slxforjl. Preparedonly by C.
