THE MANNING TIMES. S A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 14,1889. Lemon parties are getting fashiona ble in Maine. They are called lemon -squeezes. The young men who are invited are expected to bring a lemon1 and do the squeezing. The Emperor of China, who is a young and progressive man, is very anxious to make a trip to this coun try. He is in constant communica tion with the Chinese minister at Washington on the subject, and shows a good deal of impatience at the lat ter's advice. The minister has wrn ten to the Emperor that there is to be an exposition in New York in 1892, and that he had better defer his trip until that time. It would be a strange coincidence if the celebratiom com memorating the advent of Columbus should be made memorable by the presence of the Emperor of China. A duel was fought in Alabama last Saturday between Col. John D. Wil liamson, president of the Chattanooga, Rome, and Columbus railroad, and Mr. Pat Calhoun, counsel for the Georgia Central railroad. The weap ons used were Smith and Wesson double-acting 42-caliber pistols. Williamson fired five times, Calhoun. once. Williamson then apologized, and' the matter was ended. But where's the good? If Williamson was due an apology it should have been made without a fight, and if he was not due one it was cowardly to make it when he did. The duel is a poor way of settling a difficulty. All the parties ought to be arrested and tried for the offence. Will they? Slowly the great falls of the Niag ara River are changing in shape, through the eating away of the shale rock which underlies the hard rock that forms the bed of the rapids. It - is almost a misnomer now to speak of the Canadian portion of the great cataract as. the "Horseshoe Falls," and within a week this designation has become more than ever misplaced in consequence of the fall of a large section of the bed rock in the very centre of the falls. So much rock fell that an eddy below the falls near the Canadian side of the river has been narrowed more than half, and .the li steamer Maid of the Mist cuty than before in run c e of the falls.

But will the farm eathus unite ? Such a combination will help not *only the farmer, but also our mer M cants. If the farmer gets more npmey for cotton, he will have more inoney to spend, and the merchant ad1 a h rdes and professions will isthe back-bone, the foundation, of befmnanial and social status of any community.

But prosper-I * .sintelligent, careful farming will1 elevate the community, and make its citien more respected and influen Se ace has a great work, if it a only accomplish it. Let it not weary in well doing.. A great effort has been made to stir up some great commotion in this -State about a murder case, but it would not materialize. Some twelve or fourteen years ago a white consta ble in Edgefield county, in endeavor ing to make some arrests, was shot *down by a band of negroes who were concealed in a house. The warrant of arrest was for a misdemeanor, and the constable had no right or author iAtytno rais a gun in the arrest of the. party, nor should he have, as he did, attempted to make the arrest at night. But the constable, attended by five other whiite men, all armed, did attempt to makedhe arrest, at night, and at another man's home. There were some ten or fiteen armed ne groes in the house, who, upon the ap proach of the constable's party, fired upon them, killing the constable. Eight of the negroes have been tried for their lives and acquitted. There was an indictment against a ninth. Recently he was recognized in Pitts burg, Pt., where he had turned preacher. He was arrested, and Gov. Richardson issued a requisition on -the Governoi of Pennsylvania for his (Yeldell's) return to this State. But: Yeldell had changed his name to Flemon, and swore he was not Yel dell. (He was a preacher but swore to a lie.) He was, however, identi-1 fled. The Pittsburg Southern haters used every effort to prevent Yeldell's *return to the State, raising large sums of money for him, and using every possible means to prevent his being *brought back to South Carolina for trial, but he was after a long delay brought back. He was .tried in Edefeld last week for the murder, and had some of the ablest counsel for his defense. The State made out a poor case, taking into consideration theaemuittal of the other eight, ana' he jury brought in a verdict of not1 uilty. But the dead constable's iends believed he was guilty, and )penly, even to the Sheriff, swore hey would kill Yeldell as soon as he was released from custody. In the, face of ,this the Sheriff wilfully neg- I ected his duty in failing to have the;, belligerent parties bound over to keep the peace. For prudential reasons eldell was kept in jail, and guarded by the Edgefield Rifles. (A large lynching party was lingering aro--nd, waiting for Yeldell's discharge.) He was acquitted Saturday, and all Sat urday night he was guarded. The lynching party guarded all the roads leading out from Edgefield. There is a railroad running through Edgefield, but it runs no Sunday train, and it is ten or twelve miles to the C. C. & A. Railroad. Finally a special train was fixed up and Yeldell, his counsel, the the Sheriff, the Solicitor, and the Edgefield Rifles left about Sunday noon for Columbia, via Aiken and Branchville. They arrived in Colum bia safely, and Yeldell is back in Pittsburg, acquitted of murder, but for all that, guilty of the murder. He ought to have been hung. As we said, a great commotion has been caused about nothing. The State has spent nearly or quite a thousand dollars to try the lying rascal, and a great hubbub raised in the Nortb. One thing, however, has been shown, that a negro can get all the protection he wants, even when the people .be lieve he deserves punishment. But then South Carolina does not hang any man. All the murders are in self-defense, or justifiable. Farmers' County Alliance. The Farmers' County Alliance met last Friday morning at old Fellow ship church, President Jas. E. Tindal in the chair. Secretary D. J. Brad ham called the roll of sub-alliances, which were represented as follows: Manning-D. J. Bradham, T. J. M. Davis, J. E. Davis. Jacks Creek-I. C. Ingram, W. G. King. Jeff Davis-D. R. Chewning, J. R. Dingle, S. A. Brunson. Calvary-J. M. DesChamps, J. J. Broadway. Midway-Dr. I. M. Woods, J. S. Evans. Brewington-E. R. Plowden, Jr. Palmetto-S. E. Ingram, W. M. Youmans. Pine Grove-A. J. Caitine, R. S. Mellette, W. J. Turbeville. New Zion-W. H. H. Hobbs, E. S. McIntosh. Home Branch--I W. Hodge. White Oak-J. W. Clark, J. J. Chil ders. Jordan was not represented. Rev. T. J. Rooke, chaplain, offered prayer, and the alliance was opened in due form. Maj. Louis H. DesChamps was elected business manager. The executive committee was elect ed as follows: Capt. T. J. M. Davis for three years; S. E. Ingram for two years; and J. S. Evans for one year. On motion tbe president was em~ powered to appoint the judiciary com mittee, and given till the next meet ing to make the appointments. -The following motion was unani mously adopted: Resohyd, That except in eases where it is not practicable to obtain cotton bagging, we iness manager make immediate ar rangements for obtaining cotton bag ging, and that each sub-alliance be requested to inform the business manager as soon as practicable how many yards of cotton bagging would be needed by its members. It was moved and carried that the president and one member from each sub-alliance form a committee of ar rangement for the reception of Mr. Terrell, the national organizer, who is to make a speech in Manning in Sep tember. The committee is as follows: Jas. B. Tindal, Jas. E. Davis, Jos. Sprott, Jr., I C. Ingram, B. R. Din gle, J. S. Evans, B. R Plowden, Jr., S. K. Ingram, A. 3. Castine, W. H. H. Hobbs, I. W. Hodge, J. W. Clark. Mr. S. B. Ingrain introduced the following resolution which was unan imously adopted: ResohVad, That we sincerely thank the Presi dent of County Alliance for his efficient ser vices as our representative at State Alliance as also for his very successful effort to en lighten us on such matters as immediately concern us as farmers and that we tender him our thanks for the offer made to give us the opportunity of purchasing from him part of cotton bagging ordered. The unwritten work was then ex emplified by County Organizer D. J. Bradham, after which the County Al-1 liance was regularly closed, to meet again the first Friday in October. The Alliebee was largely attended, and by many of the most prominent and influential citizens of the county. It was a representative body of men, each of whom seemed interested in the success of the alliance. With such a bright beginning the alliance must prove successful. There are now twelve sub-alliances, and a pros pet of several more. Mr. Jas. E. Tindal made an inter eting talk of more than an hour, on the general workings and purposes of the drder. He promnised to send us tcopy of his speech, but up to the? time of going to press it has not yet eome to hand. If he sends it we will publish it next week.

The farmers are dealing with the bagging: rut in the proper spirit. It looks now as if hey intend to succeed. Their success neans leath to the bagging trust, their failure a! ~erpetuation of the impositions of that rinding monopoly. All that is necessary to nsure success is unanimity, cohesion arnd nsh. Let the farmers conspire against con piraies, combine against combinations n other words, "fight the devil with fire" -and the results are not doubtful. The plan for organizing and conducting: i Alliance Ex'change, formulated at the last onvention in Columbia, unavoidably omit ed from our last issue, will be found in an ther part of this paper. In its general scope t promises to meet the requirements that nake it almost necessary for the protection~ rd fostering of the agricultural interests of he country, yet we fear in some of its feat. irse it presents difficulties repugnant to safe id approved business principles. However, hose features Are of minor importance and vil be disclosed and corrected by practical :ests-i~uter utc)rncn Progress of Inventions Since 1845. In the year 1845 the present owners of the Scientific American newspaper commenced its publication, and soon after established a bureau for the procuring of patents for in ventions at home and in foreign countries. During the year 1845 there were only 502 patents issued from the U. S. Patent Office, and the total issue from the establishment of the Patent Office, up to the end of that year, numbered only 4,347. Up to the first of July this year there have been granted 406,413. Showing that since the commencement of the publication of the Scientific American there have been issued from the U. S. Patent Office 4.02,156 patents, and about one-third more applications have been made than have been granted, showing the ingenuity of our people to be phenom enal, and much greater than ever the enor mous number of patents issued indicates. Probably a good many of our readers have had business Lransacted through the offices of the Scientific American, in New York or Washington. and are familiar with Munn & Co.'s mode of doing business, but those who have not will be interested in knowing something about this, the oldest patent solic iting firm in this country, probably in the world. Persons visiting the offices of the Scien tific American, 361 Broadway, N. Y., for the first time will be surprised, on entering the main office, to find such an extensive and elegantly equipped establishment, with its walnut counters, desks, and chairs to cor respond, and its enormous safes, and such a large number of draughtsmen, specifica tion writers, and clerks, all busy as bees, reminding one of a large banking or in surance office, with its hundred employees. In conversation with one of the firm, who had commenced the business of soliciting patents in connection with the publication of the Scientific American, more than forty years ago, I learned that his firm had made application for patents for upward of one hundred thousand inventors in the United States, and several thousands in different foreign countries, and had filed as many cases in the Patent Office in a single month as there were patents issued during the en tire first year of their business career. This gentleman had seen the Patent Office grow from a sapling to a sturdy oak, and he mod estly hinted that many thought the Scien tific American, with its large circulation, had performed no mean share in stimulat ing inventions and advancing the interests of the Patent Office. But it is not alone the patent soliciting that occupies the attention of the one hundred persons employed by Munn & Co., but a large number are en gaged on the four publications issued week ly and monthly from their office, 361 Broad way, N. Y., viz.: The Scientific American, the Scientific American Supplement, the Export Edition of the Scientific American, and the ,Architects and Builders Edition of f the Scientific American. The first two pub lications are issued every week, and the latter two, the first of every month. MERCURIAL POISON. Mercury is frequently injudiciously used by quack doctors in cases of malaria and blood poison. Its after effect is worse than the original disease. B. B. B. (Botanic Blood Balm) contains no mercury, but will eliminate mercurial poison from the system. Write to Blood Balm Co , Atlanta Ga., for1 book of convincing proof of its curative virtue. A. F.'Britton, Jackson, Tenn., writes: "I: caught malaria in Louisiana, and when the' fever at last broke, my system was saturated with poison, and I had sores in my mouth! and knots on my tongue. I got two bottles B. . B, wichhealed my tongue and mouth and made a new man of me." Win. Richmond, Atlanta, Ga., writes: "My wife coul D e ns~~&t fu odition. Her appetite failed. She had pain in her joints and bones. Her Kidneys were deranged also, and no one thought she could be cured. Dr. G.illam recommended B. B. B., which she used un til her health was entirely restored." X. P. B. Jones, Atlanta, Ga., writes: "I was troubled with copper colored eruptions, loss of appetite, pain in back, aching joints, debility, emaciation,loss of hair, sore throat, and great nervousness. B. B. B. put my system in fine condition." The Delaware 'Whipping-Post. Here is what Governor Biggs, of Belaware, says of a certain custom peculiar to his lit tle State: "We are old-fashiioned people down in Delaware, and I presume we are away be hind the times in a good many things, and rather set in our ways, and that method of dealing with certain classes of criminals is one of our ways. Now, I am not an apolo gist for the whipping-post, because I don't believe that Delaware needs any apologies to be made for people or her acts, and if I did they wouldn't come with very good grace from her executive; but I can tell you some facts. There is not in the State of Delaware to day a single penitentiary, If a man beats his wife, or sets fire to a neighbor's barn, or breaks into a- house, he isn't shut up with a lot of other criminals, with full time and opportunity to learn all their tricks of dev-| iltry that he did not know before. As a! preventive of crime the whipping-post has a much greater terror than a term in a pen itentiary, and I have never known of a man that came back for a second dose. He sim ply leaves the State. You mey rest assured that if he stays in Delaware he lives a very, quiet life. To be sure it is a relic of bar barism, but it is our way." I have used S. S. S. for debility re slting from c-hills and fever, and have found it to be the best tonic and ap petizer that I ever took. It also phe vented the return of the chills. A. J. AmYUN, Eureka Springs, Ark. Dick Hornbooker is a respected and well-to-do colored citizen of 'Spring field, Mo. He says that one bottle of Swift's Specific cured both himself and wife of a ti'oublesome .eruption of the skin. Mr. W. (I. White is engineer on ajb boat on the Arkansas river, and his address is Little Rock. He says thati S. S. S. has relieved him of blood poison, which was the result, of ma-;a laria, and that it prevents chills and fever by toning up the system. He ta'kes it in the spring and summer months to prevent sickness from the malaria of the swamps on the river. Mr. L. M. Geuella, of Vicksburg Miss., says that his system was pois oned with nicotine from the excessiv e h use of tobacco in smoking cigarettes. He could not sleep, his appetite 'was I gone, and he was in a bad fix gener ally. He took S. S. S., which drov~e out the poison and made a new man of him. FOR DYSPEPSIA Use Brown's Iron Bitters.

( ijstree Record.] A gentleman and his little son were fish ing in Lynch's river a few days ago, and1 after they had caught a number. of fish, a, moccasin swam to the boat, entered it at the stern, where the boy was sitting, and began to help himself to the fish. The boy jump ed into the water, the father jumped after him, and left his snakeship "monarch of all he surveyed." When the owner returned he had to fight a battle with the snake be fore he could get possession of the boat. The snake was killed and the fish thrown away. In the same river, a few days ago, a gen tleman caught a mudfish which contained inside of it a whole alligator. We are not informed as to the size of the fish or 'gator; but the above snake and fish stories were related to us by a reliable gentleman. DEAFNESS CAN'T BE CURED by local application, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucus lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness ja the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its nor mal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrb, which is Mothing but an inflamed condition of the mucus surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness, (caused by catarrh,) that we cannot cure by taking Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. .F. J. CHIENEY & CO., Toledo, 0.
