According to action of last convention, those clubs that withdrew from the conven tion will be entitled to representation at this meeting of the Executive Committee. D. J. BBaADR-', 5. A. NETTLES, Secretrv. County Chairman. K. of P. meets to-morrow night. All the Democratic clubs in the county meet ne;t Saturday. The juveniles of this place left this morniisr to cross bats with the midgets of Foreston. The Manning literary club met at the residence of Mr. J. T. Stukes last I Monday night. _ Candidates must file their pledges , with the county chairman by or be f fore Tuesday, Aug. 26th. The officers in the court house are suffering with what may be termed anxious-for-something-to-do. The cottage that is being built for Mr. C. R. Harvin will soon be com pleted and ready for occupancy. Mr. N. B. Barrow, of Salem, says the crops in his section are excellent, and the prospect for a good harvest is first class. Work has commenced on the new colored Methodist church, and it is proposed to make it an ornament to the town. Remember the town treasurer is receiving the street and property tax. The books will close on the first of September. Club rolls certified to by the presi dent and secretary must be filed with the county chairman by or before Tuesday, August 26th.

All able-bodied male persons from 16 to 50 years of age, except students going to school, teachers, or ministers of the gospel, are liable to pay the street tax. Remember that club rolls must be filed with the county chairman not later than Tuesday, Aug. 26th. See notice under head of "Call for county convention." The county executive committee will meet in the court house Friday, Aug. 29th, at 10.30 o'clock; and the county convention a half hour later, at 11 o'clock. M. Kalisky says that he will have the largest stock this fall that he has ever had, and that he proposes to take the lead in selling cheap all through the cotton season. People owning building lots in this town are standing in their own light by not building houses on them. Neat cottages are in demand, and can be rented at a fair price. At the meeting of the council Mon day night Warden Pack tendered his resignation, as he was going to leave the town. His resignation was ac cepted with regrets by his brother councilmen. Mr. M. Levi must have bought a tremendous stock while at the North as his wagons have been continually hauling during the past two weeks, and are still hard down bringing in large boxes. One night last week Mr. Butler Du Bose had an encounter with a mad dog in the piazza of his father's house. As he approached the house, the dog showed signs of fight, whereupon Mr. DuBose shot five bullets into the dog causing instant death. The town council have ordered an other supply of street lamps. Our city fathers believe in taking us out of darkness and bringing us into light. They also propose to open some more new streets, thus giving people a chance of utilizing their town lands for building lots. Just arrived at Kalisky's a fine lot of Irish potatoes. Rev. E. A. McDowell assisted by Rev. E. D. Wells has for the past ten days been conducting a very interest ing religious meeting at Home Branch church. Nine converts were baptized last Saturday afternoon in Tindal's millpond. The meeting will continue the remainder of the week. Just received, fresh and genuine Turnip Seed, at Dinkins & Co.'s. Last Saturday a very enjoyable dinner party was given at the beauti ful home of Mr. James E. Davis, a short distance from town, in honor of friends who are visiting Mr. Davis's family. The party consisted of about twenty-five young ladies and gentle men, quite a number of them being from Manning. Kalisky has just received a fine lot of trunks and valises, also all kinds of school books. Last Wednesday afternoon, while we were at press, our office was hon ored by a visit from seven of Man ning's most beautiful and accomplish ed young ladies. The visit was highly appreciated by us, and our foreman,, like a gallant Knight, took pleasure in explaining to them the mechanism of our cylinder press, and showed them how we bring out the Tms. Buy your Turnip Seed from J. G. Din kins & Co.'s Drug Store. Next Saturday is a very important day with the Democf-ats of this coun ty: every man should lay all business aside and attend the meeting of his club. Delegates are to be elected to attend the co~inty convention, which< will elect delegates to the State nomi nating convention. County officers - will also be nominated, therefore it behooves every man to turn out. Fresh and genuine Turnip Seed, all vari eties, at Dinkins & Co.'s. The causeway across Pocotaligo is already in excellent condition, but Maj. E. C. Horton, under whose su pervision the work is done, says he proposes making it still better--thec best causeway in the county. Thou- C sands of cart-loads of sand have been hauled in, and the causeway raised ini some places more than three feet. We I] doubt if any one could have done the work better and cheaper. Blank titles, mortgages, liens, bills of i sale, and other legal blanks for sale at low-a est prices by Dr. L. W. Nettles, Foreston. t The town council had a meeting I Monday night, and the clerk submit ted his quarterly report ending July 15. The report shows the receipts,: including $480.15 received from form er council, to be $881.25. And the expenditures, including $36.60 which ] should have been paid by former;i council, to be $612.78, leaving a bal-I ance on hand of $268.47. The pres ent council has done a vast amount of work, and of course it necessitated the expending of a great deal of mon-1 ey, but the work is done now and the' town is in better condition than it iThere has been a general advance in prices of all kinds of provisions. Many thanks to Mr. J. H. T. Coul liette for a bucket of delicious figs. Last Monday a cloud-burst struck the plantation of Mr. J. W. McLeod. A tremendous amount of water fell, but no damage was done. Moses Levi is back from the North, and next week will have his say to the people. He has bought largely, and says lie will sell cheaper than ever. The MANNaNG TviF3 Job Office is prepared at shortest notice to print any kind of letter heads, envelopes, circulars, etc., and in the best style. Give us a chance. A match game of base ball was played yesterday at Juneville between Foreston and Juneville resulting in a score of 8 to 9 in favor of Juneville. A large crowd including a good many ladies witnessed the gaie which was close and interesting. Mr. C. L. Emanuel, of the Fork sec tion, brought the first bale of cotton of the season to Manning yesterday. The cotton was placed on the market, and sold for 10 1-2 cents per pound. Mr. Emanuel says he will have anoth er bale on the market before the end of the week. The last State convention paid Clar endon the compliment of giving us a member of the State executive com mittee. M. C. Galluchat, Esq., of this town, was elected as one of the two members from the sixth congress ional district. Mr. Galluchat is con servative in his views. and will make a strong member of the committee. Joseph F. Rhame, Esq., has for a number of years been an influential and prominent member of this coin mittee. Accident at a Saw Mill. Mr. Judson Bradham sustained a very dangerous and painful accident at Brad ham's mill this morniug about 9 o'clock. While at work butting off lumber the chain holding the butting saw broke, and the saw flying up struck him on the left elbow, cut ting a fearful gash about three inches in length, and opening the elbow joint. It will be a long time before Mr. Bradham will be able to use his arm, and it is very likely that it will be stiff for life. This is truly a sad case as Mr. Bradham is a hard working young man, with a large family dependent o-i his daily exertions for support. Manning Fariners, Platform Club. Every member of the Manning Farmers' Platform Democratic club will please attend the meeting at 3 o'clock next Saturday af ternoon, Aug. 23rd, in the court house, for the purpose of electing delegates to the county convention to be beld Aug. 29th.

Everything sold for cash. MRS. 31. 0. BUJRGESS. Manning, S. C., August, 1890. A Word to Merchants. The first ble of cotton came to town yes ~erday, and this one will be followed by; any more. The people that make cotton( re people that buy such things as our mer ~hants keep for sale, and it would be to thet dvantage of the merchant to advertise his rares through the papers, so that people aay know before leaving home with whomt hey expect to trade. It is folly to think hat people do not take time to read adver isements: they do, and it is very often thet ase that a farmer before leaving his homer akes up a list of the goods he desires tot urchase from the advertisements he finds n his county paper. The mission of a county paper is not on y to let the people know what is going on, ~ut also to let them know who can offer thea ~est bargains, and when they see that at erchant has the go-aheaditiveness to ad-e ertise his goods they at once come to the onclusion that he is trying to out-do his ompetitors, and, to carry out his purpose, argains await them by giving him a trial. 'The MaNxxxxG TDIES justly claims to be I e best advertising medium in the coun .y. We not only have a large circulation, ut we have one of the newsiest county pa ers in the State, and two of our merchantst od us yesterday that their advertising wasa , frst class paying investment.c Charleston's Mercantile Offers.

Possessing these quali ies, Syrup of Figs is the one perfect laxa ive and most gentle diuretic known. 1'he Quialifleations andI Dutites of a Sutnday School Teacher. To mention in detail all the qualifications ma duties of a Sun day-school teacher would >e to enumerate many qualifications which ew of us possess, and many duties which ;ery few teachers perform. We shall there ore mention only a few which in our judg neut are indispensable and most important. The first, and one* that is absolutely nee ~ssary, is that the teacher should himself be Ste believer in the Triune God and a xnsistent member in some branch of the -hristian church; that he should be familiar vith the leading doctrines of the church, t as to be able to tell the children what he 2elieves and why in such plain lang-mge hat their minds may comprehend. To ac omlhishi this ho should make himself fat niiar with the scriptures in order to sup >rt his statements by a "Thus saith the ~ord." He shoul haLve an amiable dispo ition and be "apt to teach," possessing a lever tact in communicating to others the ruth in, his own mind, making it clear by amiliar illustration. His heart, in the second place, should be n his work, having an ear'nest desire to raw the children to Christ, and this he houl strive to do not only by precept on he Sabbath while engaged with his class, 1ut also by a consistent christian walk and onversation during the week, thus proving hat he is sincerely and deeply in earnest in egard to their spiritual and eternal welfare. A Sunday-school teacher should during he week study the topics of the lesson and aake himself as familiar as possible with he truth to be developed from it. He should ake every effort to be punctually at his lost every Sabbath at the hour for opening chool, and should adopt the best methods Le can to cause the children to he prompt Iso. Perhaps there is nothing more attrac ive to the children than a well selected cir ulating library. In hearing the lesson it is wvell to inter perse questions and explanations illustra ive of the truth, and also to encourage the lass to ask for information on any points hichi may be mysterious to their young ainds. He shoulid impress upon their inds the truth of the immortality of the ol and its priceless value; show how hrough the fall of Adam, our federal head na representative, all p~urity anid holiness f character was lost; that the whole race escending from] him has inherited a de raved nature and are inclined only to the mays of sin and evil, the natural heart being tenmity with God. He should point out the secessity for the new birth, or as it is termed a the 1;ible regeneration. He will then 'oint them to Jesus Christ, the Saviour; how what he has done for our redemption, nd how deeply in earnest wve shoul be for ur own and thc salvation of others, ex laning clearly that there is no other wvay inn through the blood and merits of Christ~ esus, who is our great substitute, sacrifice, nid mediator, once an offering for sin, now ighly ezalted, the great High Priest andl vocaite for his peCople. Tell them that brist .Jesus, by the once offering up of imself a sacrilice for our sins, has pur based eterinal redemption for all who will eept the oIlfer on his terms, which are free nd amuple, thme simple exercise of faith in imo, which faith it true and sincere is sure >be followed by a life of obedience mani -t.d ini our daily conduct.

At e same time he sihuld be careful to warn ienm against a~ Pharisaic confidence in their wa proesions and goott works, but en eator to teach them that any good which e mav do is not the result of amry inherent >od ini us, but onily the outgrowth of the ract- of God in our hearts, graciously be .owedl and appllied through the instru centality of the 11oly Spirit, and all through me nmerits of Christ to wvhom be all the Tihese quialifi-ations and duties we con der ot primary importance.
