'The vote resulted 17 Ior the levy and 14 against it. The election did nct comie off without the managers being notified of a protest, and from what we can gather, a btrong effort will be made to prevent the additional tax being collected, even if ax resort to the court has to be -nade. One of the principal objections to the election wats that the school trustees did not give a iaw ful notice, inasmuch as they neglected to stae t.:. hours nn of onen in!g an d ClosingE the polls. The fact is, that the polls did not open until 4 o'clcck in the afternoon. Thn we are ifci Lt t;h.t the law has not Ieen complied wtith in other respects. and if an ,tte-mpt is made by the school trustees they i ill be enjoined frm carryint out their intention. Ve are therefore of the opinion that Manning, wilL not tet the Graded 1school Net awhile: it certainty can not un der tL'recent election. ST ANDS AT THE IEAD. Aug J.

Free trial bottles at R. B. Loryea's. Panola's Field Day. Amid all that is calculated to drive carei away the writer spent last Saturday at the I parade grounds of Colonel Brailsford's famous battalion of troopers. The weather I was superb and the crowd of about 400 1 spent the day joyonsly. It was a grand reunion of old acquaintances. It was a day of love making. It was a day to linger s loig in the memory of those present. an] II it was another laurel in the crown of hos pitality for the good people of the Panola section. After about a three hours' drive. accom panied by "Old Rock," one of Clarendon's most faithful County officers, I reached the parade grounds to find an immense I throng had preceded me, and were already v mingling in happy greeting. Sweet musie i from the Manning brass band greeted our t, arrival and the gallant troopers in their t well fitting uniforms made quite a p:cture as they dashed to and fro making prepara tions for the event of the day. Colonel f Brailsford on a beautiful sorrel charger was kept quite busy issuing orders, and Captains Richardson and Wells were busy attending to the formation of their respect- 0 ive commands. On a hill was the school o house with its piazza filled with the beauty 3 of Clarendon, down the slope of this hill, were others promenading with the gallant Iouth. In tte vehicles and sitting at the trunks of trees were the "'3. Vets," tiht- 1 ing the battles of days gone by, and right s here "Old Rock" was in his glory. A little to the right were the soldiers in a beatiful savannah, each fellow endeavoring to strut in his saddle so as to look Lis best before the mu:titude of ladies. and in front was a beautifully growing crop of cotton belong- S ing to Charlie Brown, but notwithstanding c e his pride for the military, he was anxious about his crop being trampled by the dashing cavalrymen. The writer was in r uniform also, and shortly after his arrival he was informed that his chief, General John Gary Watts. the adjutant and inspec tor-general was at the residence of Captain J. 11. Richardson. Accompanied by Major Richbourg, we went in quest of the general. We lound him ready and waiting for 1.i escort; after the usual courtesies and well, after bidding Mrs. Richardson adieux, the general and his escort, com posed of Majors A. J. Richbourg, Louis Appelt and Acting Adjutant Priestly Holla day, rode to the parade grounds where everything was in readiness and as soon as our positions were taken under a pretty shade tree, Colonel Brailsford and sixty six of the handsomest troopers in South Carolina marched past in review. The horses, right from the plow fields, were fat C and sleek, and seemed from their prancing and capering to understand that they were on inspection. On account of the usual ground being planted and the savannah near by covered with water, the evolutions had to be dis pensed with and the inspecting officer con tented himself with the general appearance of the men, their accoutrements, etc. Af ter he gave orders to dismiss the parade,~ Colonel Brailsfordl joined in by the batal lion called for a speech. General Watts. made the handsome colonel blush consid erably by alluding to his being a bachelor in a community where such lovely maidensJ abound, and exposed a contract made be- t< tween himself and the colonel, which was, 0 that he (Watts) wonld not marry until t Colonel lBrailsford had, that he was tired of I his bargain and gave notice that from I henceforth the compact was broken. Gen- fi eral Watts spoke eloquently of the condi- c ion of the military and paid our cavalry C smte well deserved compliments. At the I conclusion of his speech, -\Jajor Appelt ~ was called for and he responded. Then o Colonel Braiisford was called, and his re sponse was "Two's right, forward, march!' - This ended the inspection. Under the beautiful shade trees were ( erected tables and on them everything that the appetite could want for, except strong drink, was found. Committees composed of the soldiers did all they' could to make everybody get a plenty-and they get it. But it invariably happens that where larg; crowds congregate, there flock the rogues to get in their crooked work. In large cities they do the pickpocketing act, but at this place they selected the unsophisticated editor of a newspaper and robbed him of that which he p ri~ed most dear--his din ner-especially prepared by some of the kind ladies at the Colonel's request. It was bad enough to be thus robbed, but the fellow who had the appearance of having eaten the entire picnic had the steal-Lard ened gali to come up with the empty plate and give a glowing account of the good things he hal eaten from it. It made the writer feel sad that such depravity had C crept in among the youth of Panola. It might be that we were more pained at the loss of our dinner, because such always' leaves an aching void. We could not find a policeman, so we told our troubles toa others and in a few minutes plates were I hurriedly washed and the general, who ad b-.er tre-ate i to a similar dose of gooai samaritanism by the fellow who looked as| if he had eaten the whole picnic, and the| writer, were stood up to nicely fixed plates,s and the fellow who robbed us, stood off as if he were seeking more dinners to devour. The Lord may have mercy on him, but if he ate all that his appearance shows, we cannot understand how on earth there are so many fat live stock in that community. Alter dinner to the lively tunes of the violns and cornet the young folks spent the time in dancing, drinking lemonade and eating ice cream. It is needless for us to say that the day was delightfully spent and none was happier for the pleasi-e that each enjoyed than Colonel Brailsfori1, w'ho was the host of this delightful occasion. A.t - ELECTRIC BITTERS. Electric B:tters is a medicine suited for any season, but perhaps more generally needed, when the languid exhausted feel ing prevails, when the liver is torpid u d sluggish and the need of a tonic and alter ative is felt.
