There were more visitors than we have

Literary Club Is spreading far and
Wide. Mr. Ed Turner rendered an et-
aay on “Friendship,” which Was cer
tainly a masterpiece of composition.
Mr, Turner ought to develop the hid
den treasure by all means. Miss Nettie
Boyd recited the beautiful piece, “Ah-
kalotn,” and did hoQor to herself and to
the piece. Mr. Julian Turner’s “Sev

lent and caused a great deal of laugh
ter. Miss Leila Boyd recited “Gray’s
Klegy.” She ought to develop her
wonderful art of memorising, she has
certainly a great talent. Miss Edna
Bailey was Editor, and of course did
excellent. She gathered ail the tid bits
of the neighborhood. The programme

Once more the time has come for us
to raise the quarterly Installment on
Bro. W. W. Lawton’s salary. Let us
remember that the Foreign Mission
Board would not haVe sent him out a
year ago on account of the financial
stringency had we not agreed to be re
sponsible for bis salary. We are glad
to see that several of the churches have
been paying each quarterly installment
as it fell due, and that quite a number
of others have sent on money for this
object. And now, brethren, will not
those churches which have not finished
raislug their qnota do so at once, and
those uiat have not yet raised anything,
will they not while raising the money

amount asked for Bro. Lawton’s sup

one-fifth of the total amount asked by

produce. To them and to the general
i;>ublic I beg to express my sincere be-
ief that better clays than we have
known since the outbreak of the war
between the States are ju»t dawningon
us. The btisiae * experience of thiity-
five active years has tsugbt me to look
ahead and I am sure that I am not mis
taken in making tills prophecy.
So strong is my confidence that I
have during my recent long visit to the
leading Northern cities secured lire
Grandest Stock of General Merchandise
that I have ever handled or that any
merchant has e^cr brought to South''
Carolina. Perhaps I may have over
bought, but 1 think not, foal found that
Hie Panic had held Northern iininufac-
UiPTR and whijcsalers by the throat
more cruelly than it had laid hands on
the fanners of our State. Ihcy had to
sell. 1 bought. And the prqpts that I
was .fortunate Crowd my store rooms
and ware houses and invite hy their va
riety, excellence and cheapness the pat
ronage of all ivho wisely want all that
they can get for their money, cotton or
other produce. Out of this vanishing
panic have come these sound new ru
qiiiremebts of business that producers
and consumers must get neater togeth
er and that the day of high prices Is
gone forever. Acting on those princi
ples 1 have bought from first hands in
all lines and taken advantage of every
fair opportunity that my presence and
cash down put within mv reach. 1 un
derstand this reconstruction of our.
business methods and accept it, and ex
pect and intend by Increasing the range
and quantity of sales in all lines of mer
chandise to take modest care of myself
and to put good heart and hope into
the people hy giving them more goods
and better goods for their money tijan
tin y ever dreamed of getting.
Without attempting to catalogue the
attractions that I have secured I beg,
by way of suggestion, to ask the atten
tion of the Ladies to the opportunity
offered them of buying in comfortable
leisure at home all that theyrjjejrd to
make them happy in heart aud^haml-
some in the eyes of men at
' PIN MONEY PRICES.
Dress’Goods in latest and loveliest
Fabrics. Heady Made Jackets, Cloaks,
Skirts, Underwear, Dainty and Sub
stantial Shoes and Slippers, Trim
mings of ill kinds, and, fn short,every
thing that they desire and deserve, anil
life is 100 short to enumerate all.
SUPERB CLOTHING.
My stock of clothing is so wide
ranged that the ‘ largest man and the
small boy can he fitted as well as with
tailor made garments, only Hie best
goods and workmanship were used in
their manufacture, and prices are too
cheap to be tpid in print. For men and
boys 1 have an ample stock of dress
and business shoes. I have gathered
the best from tho leading manufactu
rers of the Ett»tern and Western States
and can Suit every taste and give the
fullest satisfaction. Special attention
is asked to' the goods of the Bay State
Shoe and Leathet Company, the most,
durable made, and .so cheaply priced
that they will almost go off without
words.
1 offer underwear J,hat will defy
winter winds and summer heats, hats,
gloves aud every thing needful for
health and comfort.
For Fut'titturc, Hardware, Buggies,
Harness, Sadiflos ittrd everything re
quired hy house holders, in town or
country, I o'fferadvantagcs that can not
he equalled South of Mason and Dix
oh’s Line.
In Groceries I have the best grades
of all goods, bought In wholesale quan
tities and to be sold as they were pur
chased, at bed rock prices for cash.
My heavy stock must be unloaded, and
the early buyer will get,advantage of
the rls« in prices that may be expected
later ih the season. The wise buy
with their-first money, io that their
ncodsare supplied before it 4s wasted
for chips and whetstonca.
Custon era, old and new, will find
hearty welcome and the same fair deal-
ing that haa always marked my bus
iness lifeT I would pFefer for them to
come alioppitig in the morning, aa it
will take them all a busy day to sye
my goods and become accustomed 4*i
my below zero prices. They w ill find
better bargains here than the best de
b-ctive* could discover in Aiigu>Laf
Charleston Or Satfannah.
