A large number of representative and intelligent farmers met last Mon day in the court house, in compliance with a call for the farmers to elect delegates to the State convention of farmers to be held March 27th. We have never attended a convention of the same size that was more orderly, in which the speeches were more con servative, and in which the members appeared to take so deep but quiet interest. The farmers of this county propose doing things, judging from this convention, in decency and in or der. They propose meeting together for the purpose of thoughtfully dis cussing important subjects, and to get better informed on the living is sues of the day. We were much pleaed last Mfonday with the calm, qiet, orderly way inwhich the meet ing was conducted. In the absence of Mr. LH. Des champs Mr. James E Tindal was eled to the chair. Mr. Tindal stated the object of the meeting, and dis aussed the object of the State meet ing in a general way. He was in fa or of the Farmers' State Convention Srecommending to the Democratie upate Convention the names of two eand'dates only, one each for govern rand lieutenant governor. He consid ered.these the two important officers for the farmers to name as they had the greatest influence and control in legislative matters.,, think it -beigiible for the Farmers' 'convention to nominate a full State ticket, but he believed it was decided ly to the interest of the farmers to reommend candidates for these two offees. Maj. C. S. Land was not in favor of any nominations or recommendations to the Democratic State Convention. Any one working in any way outside of the regular Democratic course was considered a bolter or independent. The farmers were in the large major ity, and if they could control nomina tions by recommendations made now, they could equally as well control the nominations when made in regular convention next summer. The farm era having such a large majority, he saw no asnwhy they should not or could not control this matterin a reg Re y by electing delegates in regular-olub meeting, and then in the county ediventions-who would make such 'nminations as they desired. de thought the best and only thing for the State Convention on the 27th would be to adopt a platform, indi eatinzg what policy they desired to ef feet, and .thento vote for such men only as subscribed to that platform. Capt D. J. Bradham was also op 'psdto the State Convention matk nug any nominations. He believed the farmers were able at any time, if they so desired, to control the nomi matons in regular Democratic conven - ..tons. The farmers did not propose to bolt, or do anything of the kiad, but he thought the State Convention ought to issue a platform. Mr L T. Fischer was in favor of taking the bull by the horns, and rid ding the State and couinty of the rings that were firmly established. He want ed all rings broken up, and especially di&he want the farmers to steer clear of the powerful ring at Columbia. He wanted the farmers to stand united, and for once tobe dictators. They had een dictated to long enough. Let them for once come to the front. His speech was received with frequent and loud applause. Tr. E G. DuBose was opposed to d a delegation sent to Columbia un tammelled. He did not believe in instructing them what to do. Send good men, and let them act as their judgments dictate. He moved that the delegates be not instructed. CoL .EBenbow was preetand was called upon to address the meet ing. He was opposed in toto to this March convention. The farmers were strong and powerful enough to enter the regular Democratic convention and elect whom they pleased. He moved that this convention adjourn without sending any delegates to the Columbia convention. Mr. James E Davis introduced the following resolutions, and made a speech in favor of them. The resolu tions were adopted: esolved, That it is the sense of this meet ing that we elect six delegates and six alter nates, to the convention to be held in Colum *bi, on the 27th of March. Reoved, That the said delegates be sent without instructions. Beoed, That it is the sense of this meet ing that it wilibe impolitic and injurious to th cause of the farmers of South Carolina. t make any nominations at the said con vention. Mr. S. P. Holladay moved that a committee of seven be appointed to select six delegates to attend the State convention, the 27th -of March. It was carried, and the following gentle men were appointed on that commit tee: James E.Davis, T. Adams Way, T. Jeff Cole, Irby W. Hodge, Daniel J. Bradham, S. P. Holladay, and J. J. Broadway. These gentlemen made the following nominations, which were unanimously adopted: Degtes+:. James R. Tindal. D. 5. Bradham, C. S. Land, James E. Davis, [). W. Brailsford, John Stephen Evans. Alternates: R S. Harvin, W. M. Plowden, E. R. Plowden, Jr, L. T. Eischer, S. P. Holladay, F. P. Cooper. The convention then adjourned. The resolutions adopted and the lelegates elected places Clarendon as :pposed to making any nominations. One half the counties in the State have passed resolutions opposing the nomination of a State ticket, several counties are non-committal on the subject, and twelve have held no con vention. It may, therefore, be safely inferred that the farmers of South Carolina are opposed to making any outside nominations, but that they will fight out their grievances within the party lines. In fact, as we have before stated, the farmers constitute nine-tenths of the Democratic party in the State, and can do what they please. If they are cajoled or de feated in any attempts they are alone to blame for they, when it comes to voting, have nine to one. Vice-President Morton and party spent last Sunday and a part of Mon day in the "city by the sea." The Mississippi supreme court has affirmed the decision of the lower court in the case of Jake Kilrain, which is two months imprisonment in the county jail at Purvis, and $200 fine. The election of Reyburn, in the Fourth Pensylvania district, makes the roll of membership of the House complete and gives the Republicans a majority of ten, four more than a quorum. The sessions court of Charleston has granted a continuance in the case of Napoleon Levelle charged with wife murder. The case will be heard at the June term. The defense will plead insanity. It is estimated at the w dpart= ment that if ower should 1s iountryof ours it could be confronted by the enormous total of 7,000,000 fighting men. Of course, it would take some little time to put that host into the field. Receiver Chamberlain, of the South Carolina railway, made a visit to Edgefield last week, and while there he could not resist the temptation to go out and see the spot where he had to submit to a joint debate with Gen. M. W. Gary and others in 1876. Another bank official has given his employers the slip. Wm. Pope, teller of the Louisville City National Bank, left said bank yesterday afternoon with $60,000 in cash, belonging to the institution, and had the politeness on leaving to say, "Good evening, gentle men." The government of St. Domingo, which claim to have the only original bones~ of Columbus, is desirous of forwarding them to the United States for use in 1892, provided there be given in return for them $20,000, cash down, anid twenty per cent. of the re ceipts on public exhibition of the same. Last-hdsf dangr sby a strict party vote unseated Congressman Pendleton, Democrat of West Vir ginia. and seated Atkinson, a Repub lican, in his place. The work of oust ing Democrats goes steadily on, and it will not surprise us if Elliott, of South Carolina, does not become one of the victims before long, regardless of right and justice. Last week in the city of St. Louis, a man by the name of John O'Connor was found (as was supposed) dead on the street, and his body was identified by his wife, and later was buried. Some medical students resurrected the body, but when they stuck the knife in his body to dissect it, the blood flowed and the man returned to life. It was a case of suspended animation. The Johnstown disaster has been repeated on the Hassyampa river in Arizona. Last Saturday morning a storage dam at Walnut Grove, that had been built two years ago at a cost of $300,000, gave way under the pres sure of the great flood, and the town of Wickenberg, forty miles below was swept away. Over a hundred lives were lost, and millions of dollars of property destroyed. Rev. 3. N. Cardozo, colored, chap lain and professor of moral science of Claflin University, was severely caned yesterday by Maj. Win. 3. DeTreville, professor of mathematics of said in stitution. The cause of the difficulty was the use of false and insolent re marks by Cardozo while the faculty were in session. The students on hearing that their brother in black had been thrashed by a white profes sor became very indignant, and made threats of violence, which however they failed to carry out. Maj. De-1 Treville was a lieutenant of the Edisto Rifles until recently, when he was ap pointed a major on Gen. Richbourg's stafE The boycott started in Athens, Ga., against John Wanamaker's big house in Philadelphia, is spreading thog the State of Georgia and into Florida. The merchants are refusing to order gooi from Wanamaker's house, and some of the farmer-s declare they will boycott th~e merchant who buys goods from Wanamraker. Larry Gantt, ed itor of the Athens Banner, who urged the boycott, is one of the most popu lar men in Georgia. It is intimated that Wanamnaker would like to back down from his position, but President Harrison's pledge to give the negro,1 Matt. Davis, the Athens postoffice in pay for the support of the Georgia convention is too strong for him. BEWARE OF OINTMENTS FOR CA.

BANANA AND AppLx TART.-Make crust of fine flour and fresh butter. Make little crust, but make it good. Slice apples fine, and put in dish with three or four bananas sliced, only adding sugar and perhaps a little syrup, if you have got it. Cover crust over fruit; brush a little melted butter over top; strew white sugar on, and bake twenty minutes or more, as required. Delicious sandwiches and cheap ones can be made by mincing fine rare beefsteak. Season only with pepper and salt. These are excellent for in valids. Lemon jelly can be made with very little trouble, and it is a pretty and palatable addition to a table, besides being an excellent nourishment for fevered patients. Make a rich lemon ade, using about four lemons to a pint of water, also enough sugar to make it sweet. Strain carefully through a cloth, and then add one-half box of gelatine; after having dissolved it in a little water, strain again several times, then put in molds and place on the ice to become solid.-Vw York Fash ion Bazaar. CARE oF HousE PLANTs.-Whenever an herbaceous plant begins to drop its Ieaves, it is certain that its health is impaired in some way. This may be due to several causes, such as be ing pot-bound, over-heated, exposure to cold or the application of powerful stimulants, as guano, strong liquid manure, alkalies, etc., or to some oth er cause, which has destroyed the feeding roots of the plant, thus in ducing disease and speedy death in all cases where remedial measures are not speedily resorted to. The steps taken in these cases by the amateur are generally the most disastrous course that could be taken toward the plant, short of destroying it at once that of deluging it with water-and ap plying strofig s4mulat s.~ SWlhenq-ttkr nutritive organs of the plants have been destroyed or over gorged, the remedy is very similar that which nature suggests when ani mal digestion is deranged-namely, that of giving no more food until it reacts. Then, if the roots have been injured from any of the above named causes, we must let the soil in which it is potted become nearly dry. After which remove the plant from the pot, take the ball of soil in which the roots have been enveloped and crush it between the hands, just enough to allow all the hard outer crust of the ball to be shaken off. Repot in a rather dry soil, which must be light and rich, using a new pot, or if the old one is used it should be well scoured to open the pores, that evap oration may be properly carried on through the sides. Let the pot be only large enough to allow an inch of space between the sides of the pot and the ball of roots. After repotting give sufficient water to settle the earth well about the roots. Sink the pot in a half shady place or in a box of soil. Do not ap ply water until the plant starts to grow unless thieair is so dry as to evaporate the moisture before any perceptible growth starts. Then~ of course water must be given in suf ficient quantities to keep the soil damp, but no more. I cannot conceive why people wa ter their plants so much, nor why they should think water such a spe-. cific remedy for all the ills to which the plants are heir. The following is a case in point: A neighbor consult ing me about the feeble condition of her geraniums said, "I am sure the plants are not suffering from want of attention, as I have watered them co piously twice each day !" I think it is quite safe to assume that half the plants that die in the hands of ama teurs are watered to death. Small white worms sometimes in fest pots in which the plants have stood a long time. These are easily discovered by turning the plant out when rather dry, loosing the soil among the roots. Should any worms be found, the roots of the plants may be washed gently in soft water until freed from the old soil, then repotted ~in fresh earth. If it is not desirable to repot, the pot may be set for a half hour in hot water nearly to the depth of the soil inside. This will drive the worms to the surface with out injury to the plant. Enough. weak lime water may now be poured on the surface to penetrate the plant roots. This will not only kill the worms, but fertilize the soil. Ants sometimes cause trouble where pots have been plunged or kept in the ground. There is no way to get rid of them except by repotting. Geraniums often become enfeebled and in many cases die from excessive blooming. This must be corrected by pinching out nearly all the buds as soon as the leaves begin to indicateI a decline of vitality by their stunted and discolored appearance.-Scientgic American. Wox.u's Rx.& Lirz-Womnan'sareal life begins at marriage, and for the woman the first step is renunciation. She must give up with a good grace the exaggeration and romance of love making. The warmest hearted and most unselfish women soon learn to accept quiet trust and the loyalty of a loving life as the calmest and hap piest condition, and the men who are sensible enough to rely on the good sense of such wives, sail around and away from the gushing adorers for true affection and comfortable tran quility. Just let a young wife re member that her husband necessarily is under a certain amount oi bondage all day; that his interests compel him to look pleasant under all circum stances, to offend none, to say no has ty word, and she will see that when he reaches his own fireside he wants most of all to have this strain removed, to be at ease; but he cannot be if he is afraid of wounding his wife's sensi bilities by forgetting some outward or visible token of his affection for her. Besides, she pays him a poor comi pliment in refusing to believe what he does not continually assert; and by fretting for what is unreasonable to desire, she deeply wrongs herself, for "A woman moved is like a fountain troubled, Muddy, ill-seemed, thick, bereft of beauty." - Woman's Work.

Editor Manning Times: Dear Sir: Will you say through the ,olumns of your paper that we are gratified at the result of our advertis ing in the Tms. It has done us good, nd at the same time we feel that we have been a benefit to the people in letting them know that we are not ashamed of our goods and prices. - Every day persons call at our estab lishment and inform us that they saw what the MANrsoNG Tnxns had to say about our store, goods, and prices, and it is very gratifying to us to rea lize that our efforts to ir form the peo ple of our immense stock is having its effect. We propose to continue to give this information to our patrons, and at the same time invite competi tion, as we believe that every busi ness, and especially this of ours, needs rivalry and competition to make it succeed. We have assumed the posi tion of leaders in the mercantile bus iness in Sumter, and in order to main tain that position we realize the fact that our goods must be sold very cheap, and our purchases must be made accordingly. Therefore we have taken great pains in making our spring selections, ahd we challenge any house in Sumter: to show up a finer, prettier, and cheaper lot of ladies' dress goods of all grades and patterns, trimmings, white goods, embroideries, laces, and in fact every article belonging to a first clas.dry goods stock. Then there are our-cloth ing counters filled with the very latest styles, manufactured especially for us. Hats of the nobbiest and latest shapes. Our shoe department will comparelfa vorably with the finest shoe -stock' in the State, as we make it a rule not to handle any shoes but those made of the best leathers and only from the most reliable manufacturers, becaase we are convinced that ao article injures a trade _quieker than a poor shoe. Wabfvbeen and are still supply 1iig sub-unions in this and Clarendon ounties, and while our profits have been very short, yet the large quanti ties of goods sold to them makes it pleasant and agreeable to us and to those purchasing from us, therefore we are determined to hold on to this trade, and the only way it can be taken from us is for some other mer ehant to sell his goods cheaper, and this we will not allow. We extend an invitation to all of ur friends in Clarendon county to ome to see us. We will be glad to see them at any time, and if they desire to make purchases we are pre pared to sell to them as cheap as any house in the county. - Believing that through the columns of the MANxTsG Tnms we have been greatly benefitted, we take this meth od of acknowledging the same. We are, Very respectfully, LEVI BROTHERS. Who Can Join the Aliance. E. T. Stackhouse, president of the South Carolina State Alliance, answers the question as follows: Factory operatives are not eligible to memi bership in the Farmers' Alliance and Indus trial Union.

The man "who keeps stables, anrd ,specui ltes on horses, mules, hogs, etc.," is not el igible, although he owns a farm.
