THE MANNDTG TaES S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 1889. THE NANNING GUARDS. About two years ago, with consid erable exertion ani at a cost of more than a thousand dollars, the Manning Guards were organized. The ladies gave them all the encouragement they could, and it was hoped the members would, after such kind and generous treatment, take an interest in the company and preserve the organiza tion, but the present outlook is not thg best. A number of the old mem bers have grown careless and indif ferent. The officers and some of the members are making an effort to re organize, and they say they are going to do it. Those old members who are tired of the company will be al lowed to resign, and new men put in We the organization will be kept up. A military company in a town or neighborhood has a healthy influence, and it is impossible to fore see just when it may be of greatest service. We hope as many as possi ble of the old members, and as many new members as possible will meet Thursday afternoon, May 16th, at 7 o'clock sharp, and assist in reorganiz ing. Don't let the company go down. Keep it up. Manning is noted for such fickleness, but show that in this instance the record will be broken, and the old flag shall not be furled in such an unhonored manner. TEACHERS OF CLARENDON Elsewhere will be found an adver tiseament by School Commissioner Wells, of special importance to teach ers. The list of studieson which teach era will be examined is.iven. The pres ent board says it will not hereafter grant licenses to teach. This is an eminently proper action, but will the board next fall have the spinality to keep its promise? The board for the last two years did not. The plaintiff pleadings of timid teachers was too much, and some were given licenses and certificates to teach any way. But the present board advertises that it will not grant these licenses any more, and the teachers who have any fears had better at once begin study ing' up for the examination. ysiology and hygiene are two of the studies. These are comparative ly new public school studies, and spe cial attention is therefore called to them. The examination on these - studies will be rigid. We called at tention sometime ago to a little book on these subjects adopted by the county board. It is published by R E. Park, Macon, Ga., and sells, we be lieve, for about fifty cents. Let every teacher who has not a copy send 50 cents to Mr. Par-k for one. Then especially study up on gram mar and arithmetic. Any teacher who fails to pass a creditable exami mation onthese two branches is unfit to teach a school. Let every teacher spend a good part of his time in reading and study; he progressive;~ keep up with the age: and the schools of Clarendonwllbe greatly improved.' ' Ei-'Gov. Hugh S. Thompson, of South .Carolina, and Theodore Roose velt, of New York, have been appoint ed to 61 veacanin the civil-service1 comminsioners. Gov. Thompson is the man for the place, and wehop to see improvements in this branc of 500-Bushels Cora to the Acre. We visited CoL. B. 3. Hudgins's prize ace of corn last week, and as we know our readers will enjoy a deseription of it, we will ten thera all about it. Tlhe acts is in Foreston, about three hun dredt yards from the depot. The 'soil is high, sandy, and porous, and is well drain ed. The acre has been carefully marked of, ad the limits plainly marked by a beavy sahntling pinned to the ground. A trm roIad runs through the gekt Col. Hudgins has ffited up a tank and force pump, and if the seasons do not suit him, he can easily fill up his tank, and running it into his field, furnish a shower of rain. The lend was prepared as follows: The aere. was covere~d with stable manure. Upon this was broadca-t three barrels of slaked lime and 400 pounds acid. The land was then broken up. commencing on the outside with a turn plow, and following In the same furrow with two four-inch shoy eliplows, turning the soil to a depth of twelve or fifteen mnches, driving around the outer sides of the acre, and finishing up in the middle. The stable manure, lime, and acid, were thus, by means of these three plows, pretty well turned under. On March 28th, 84 bushels cotton seed, 500 pounds cotton seed mceal, and 400 ~,uds kainit were put on the ground~andt ein with a disk barrowr. The ground was then leveled off with hand rakes. The corn was pianted April tst, 2d, and 3rd. CoL. Hudgins did this with great care. The corn is planted in double rows, three feet from center to center, and si inches apart, averaging three teet one way and three inches the other. On May 2d. it was plowed with a garden plow, 1000 puds cotton seed meal added, and .then hodover niely. The stand in apart ofthe field is all that could be desired, but in another part it is ,imperfect and had to be replanted. The .eorn is now abcut18 inches high, and has .a beautiful color. The corn is of the Geddings variety, and coL Hudgins say-s the following is claimed for it: Each salk will produce from three to five large ears of corn. From each stalk there will shoot two or three suckers, each of which will produce an ear. And we think we understood Col. Hudgins to say that in addition to althis he would get a quart of sheiled corn from each tass.el. He may have meant to say that the entire yield ofa talk of theecornwould be aquat, but we asked him a second time and under stood him to say that he would get the ,quart from the tassel of each stalk. Col. Hudgius expects with propitious sea westo get five hundred bushels from this acre. Bead onr list of prizes in another column.

The Charleston News and Courier, of May 9th, gives the following aceount of the nar row escape of a Charleston policeman: Considerable excitement was caused yes terday afternoon near the Charleston Hotel by the attempted shooting of Lieut. Mollen hauer by a drunken man named J. It. Har vin, who is, it is said, a native of Sumter. The story of the entire affair is as follows: Harvin arrived in the city yesterday morn ing on an excursion and soon imbibed too much whiskey. He went into the barber shop at the Pavilion Hotel and attempted to cut B. J. Herlong with a knife. Herlong immediately balled in Lieut. Mollenhauer and Policeman Hutchinson, who were near by, and Harvin was arrested and taken to the police signal box at the corner of Meet ing and Society streets to await the arrival of the patrol wagon. While waiting for it Harvin expressed a great deal of sorrow that he would have to go to the Station House in a wagon. Just as the wagon arrived Lieut. Mollen hauer turned around, and as quick as light ning Harvin drew a Smith & Wesson pistol and attempted to kill him. He had the pis tol pointed at the head of the officer, and but for the timely interference of Policeman Hutchinson it is very probable that Lieut. Mollenhauer would have been instantly killed. Hutchinson, who is an alert and powerful pcliceman, knocked the pistol downward and the hammer caught in his thumb, thus preventing the discharge of the pistol. Harvin was immediately thrown to the ground as if he were a baby, by Hutchinson, who disarmed him and put handcuffs on him, and in a few moments Harvin was locked up in the Police Station. It was, perhaps, the narrowest escape from death Lieut. Mollenhauer has ever had, and he can thank Policeman Hutchinson for his timely intervention. There was a large crowd of spectators around, and the splendid conduct of Policeman Hutchinson was complimented on all sides. He was of fered a douoeur in the shape of a purse, but politely refused it, saying that if any recog nition was made of his conduct it must be made through his chief. Harvin will travel a rough road before he gets out of the scrape he is now in. An Editor Arrested for Arson. Mr. H. S. Cunningham, editor of the Orangeburg Spectator, has been arrested and lodged in jail on a charge of arson. Last February the Spectator office was near ly burned. It now seems from the follow ing that Mr. Cunningham is accused of at tempting to burn his own office and resi dence: ORANGEBRno, May 9.-To the Editor The News and Courier: Our community was as tounded, to put it mildly, this morning at the announcement that detective Jones, who has been here for some time to work up the case of the fire at Wolfe's hvuse in February, had developed his theory at last, and that Mr. H. S. Cunningham, editor of the Spec tator, together with Mr. J. W. Caston, then a printer in the Spectator office, were accused of the offence. This turn to the investigation has pro duced profound surprise and Mr. Cunning ham has received assurances of unshaken confidence on all sides. It is believed by many of our best people that his innocence will be amply and speedily vindicated. The fire had an author and the detective had to have a theory. Mr. Cunningham has won golden opin ions from our people since he has been among us, and several offers of bail have already been tendered him by prominent gentlemen. Romuar CotEs. A Revolutionary Incident Connected With Ox Swamp. Harper's Magazine for July, 1858, contain ed a lengthy. graphically written, and nicely illustrated sketch of General Francia Mar ion. It was written by Dr. Benson J. Lossing, thei eminent historian, who has gven us the "Pictorial Field Book of the Reoution" and other historical works. Among the many interesting incidents related in this sketch is one connected with Ox Swamp, a stream wlth which the people of Manmag~ are familiar, and in whose im mediate neighborhood the lads and young maidens of the town have doubtless often hunted for "sweet violets" and the pretty honeysuckle. As this Revolutionary inci dent will be interesting to many people in Clarendon, I copy it off for the Massxrxo ToMEs. Dr. Lossing says: *"Tarleton now made another attempt to capture Marion. His legion was at Camden, and with asalltroop of horse he set out froma Charleston to meet them on the Con garee. Marion was informed of this move ment, and he resolved to attempt to capture Tarleton before he could effect a junction with his corps. He failed, and the brave Colonel with his whole force was soon in swift pursuit of the partisan. Through deep morasses and across miry streams they fol lowed, until they reached the verge of the vast and gloomy Ox Swamp, when, tired of the chase, Tarleton exclaimed, 'Come, my boy, let usgo back! We will soon fld the Game-cock of the Catawba (Sumter); but as for this cursed Swamp Fox, the devil him self could not catch hun.' The pursuit was abandoned; and from the gates of Charles ton to the high hills of Santee Marion re mained sole master." McIosazau Frnxms. Ramsey, S. C., May, 1889. CONSUMPTION SURELY CURED. To -rBE Enrron-Please inform your read ers that I have a positive remedy for the above' named disease. By its timely use thousands of hopeless cases have been per manently cured. I shall be glad to send two bottles of my remedy REE to any of your readers who have consumption it they will send me their express and post -office address. Respetfly, T. A.SLOCUM M. C., 181 Pearl st., N. Y Regulators in Sumter County. ParvxrzEE, May 9.-The regulators have made their appearance in this county. From an authentic so'irce I learned recently that some time ago a ne~ woman who was liv ing unlawfully wi a white man in Provi dence township was warned to leave. She didn't heed the warning and some regula tors visited her and administered a severe whipping. It is thought that the man was also whipped, but this he denies. This is the nearest approach to Kukiuxism that we have had in Sumter county for a long time. CONVINCING PROOF. In many instances it has been proven that B. B. B., (Botanic Blood Balm)' made by Blood Balm Co., Atlanta, Ga., will cure 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 geatly prostrated. I be lieve I actuallys owe a barrel of medi cine, in vain efforts to cure the disease. With little hope I linially acted on the urgent advice of a friend, and got a bottle of B. B. B. I experienced a change, 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 skull bones. My bonesached; my kidneys were 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 he now becn well over twelve months." Plain History. Swift's Specific is a simple vegetable compound, prepared from roots gath ered freshly from the forest, and con tains nothing of the mineral kingdom, or any poisonous substance, or any article at all which comes from the chemist's laboratory. The formula of the remedy was obtained from the Creek Indians in Middle Georgia, by reliable white men who had witnessed the wonder ful cures made by that tribe of In dians, of blood diseases. Mr. Hugh L. Dennard, of Houston county, Ga., began using Swift's Specific in 1829 and continued its use all of his life, and asserted that he had never known it to fail to cure any case of scrofula, blood taint, or contagious blood poison. This testimony has been corroborated every day for years. The present Company was formed in 1879, and have since made known to the world the virtues of Swift's Spe cific, and to-day it is sold in every city, town and country store all over America, Great Britain, and many other portions of the world. I have seen Swift's Specific used, and known of many cases of the worst form of blood diseases which have been cured by it. I know the proprietors to be gentlemen of the highest type and utmost reliability. I recommend it as a great blood rem edy, unequalled by anything that I know of. M. B.

There is more catarrh in this section o the country than all other diseases put to gether, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's catarrh cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a tea spoonful. It acts directly upon the blood and mucus surface of the system. They of fer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, F. J.

Were it universally emnployedt by cotton producers, a market would be found for about 200.000 bales of cotton, which would necessarily have a tendency to raise the price of the Southern staple. Cotton is the life of agriculture in the South and mu~st al ways hold this position of supremacy. Farmers may and should diversify their crops, and would thereby add materially to their prosperity, but they will always look to .cotton as their main and money-produc ing product Hence it is to their interest to use every honorable means for making that crop as valuable as possible in the markets of the world. If they would boy oott jute in all forms as persistently as tea was once boycotted in Boston, they would be ridding themselves of a rival and en hancing the value of their own raw mate rial.-&ui' er Watchmanm.
