>;HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL."
^ ',Weof Abbeville are again enlivened |
^ with, the hope that our sore need ot J
,l?ore and better railroad facilities is (
about to bt? met. The proceedings of i
the meeting held in' Columbia, and
;y. . which we publish elsewhere in our pu- !
per, 9,how the character of the interest
| that is aroused in the enterprise. We |
: twere greatly impressed.with that meet- '
V ;ing. Impressed by the character of the '
.men who participated in it. They were ]
intelligent and earnest and honest men.
y. And it was evident that they represent- <
qd a sentiment that was not all froth and
.talk. Indeed the meeting did not in- (
dulge in the blatherskite talk, common- j
ly called "gas,'' which is usual on such
ocotflions. Th) question at issue was 1
calmly and quietly discussed. We de- '
duce from the remarks made by the gen- (
tleman from Chester, Maj. Mills, who i
.had seen Mr. Robinson, the Baltimore
^railroad magnate, that if the
^ places interested in South Car- ,
'olina help themselves, he will
jhelp them build the road. It is clear
that Mr. Robinson is deeply interested.
He must have a Southern outlet for the
Sir** ; f
system of roads in which he has an in- '
vtcjrest, and this offers to him superior in- 1
,ducements. tie has the capital to com- I
j.i- jplete the enterprise if he engages in it. (
Therefore, we must at once show to him <
that all along the line we are willing to
do our whole duty. This is the more
imperative on Abbeville because there
are other routes proposed, which if we
*re lukewarm and indifferent, may draw
s.the road away from us. Wherefore, let
MS all work together harmoniously and
.enthusiastically and we verily believe we
will succeed in building this road.
,NO.
0?rfriend and correspondent, ^R. J8.

his always interesting "Dots" that Due
vjnrest iias an iu?? uiai Aoucyiiie 18 quiCK
to unite on any road that leaves Due
. !i I'" I i
West out. We assure our friend that
.this is a great mistake. Speaking for ourselves
we have always believed and do
still,believe that the Carolina, Cumberr-.\
> '
land Gap and Chicago R. K., is the grandest
railroad enterprise yet projected;
and*we have an ^biding faith that that
road will yet be built, and we aro sure
Aur friends at.Pue West ought to know
.ihi^t jpo ii^r always be counted on
to speak for and defend and aid it.
In thcf'meatitime other railroad facili'
ties are offered us, not antagonistic to
the C,, C. G. <fe C. R. R., and it is our
pr duty , to take advantage of them. No,
no, friends we havent forsaken you and
wonlt. Count on us to help you in any
$nd everything we can.

.Major Mills in the.report of his interview
with Air. Robinson, made to the
railroad meeting, said fthac Mr. Robinson
had told .him that his mind had
undergone a change as to the effect of j
the establishment of the Railroad Com- j
^ mission, About,that .timo it yras said
^Mr..Robinson,had abandoned a railroad .
projeqt in this .State, because of the (
creation of .^he .Commission, and great i

NINETY-SIX DOTS.
Spring has come at last and we hope
in good earnest. Editors will pleaso
sharpen their lead pencils?we mean
Hcissora lor gushing Spring poetry.
I have been told in at least five different.
languages and heard it said in
twice that uiHiiy di tie rent countries,
"That where there is a bride she is always
the prettiest of her sex." Hearing
the siiine fro in people with various
tastes, manners und customs there
must he some truth in it. %Ve had occasion
to verify the truth of this old
ndage at the residence of Hon. C. \V.
Ivinurd, ex-Legiilator from Edgefield
Uounty, on Wednesday, April 14th.
The nuptials of Mr. E. M. Osoorne and
Miss LoiaKinard were celebrated in the
presence of a number of fair maidens
and polite gentlemen of the neighborhood.
Rev. R. D. Smart Prosiding Elier.
of Green*vood, otticiated, assisted
by Rev. W. P. Meadors, of Ninety-Six.
We enjoyed everything that could be
enjoyed on such occasions, because it
was there in profusion and tastily arranged?except
the toasts. We had
our notes for a little saucy speech, carerally
prepared, in our vest pocket. Our
young friend Mr. Jeff. I). Moorp, a
ready speaker, according to his own
statement, was ready to fall into battle
at very short notice?but no signal was
given. Therefore all the great thoughts
remained unuttered. Towards midnight
the Ninety-Six local band serenaded
the happy couple.
The next day, April 15th, we attended
the reception at the residence of Mr.
A. S. Osborne, given in honor of his
brother and bride. buck occasions
have been so often described, that we
desist. Will only mention one feature,
which we can at all times recommend.
The lady of the house superintended
and assisted her own cooks. That was
no doubt the reason we saw such a lovely
table, and could enjoy the feast like
a genuine French gourmand. The 0. K.
cake (Osborne and Kinard) was a prolusion
of thought and ideas. The last
1 saw of the lady she was accompanying
a song on the organ in the parlor,
[f South Carolina had as many ladies
in the kitchen as in the parlor, we poor
rulers or lords of creation would faro
better. The Beachatns and Mr. .1. D.
Watson, so well known among us for
theif musical talent, were present, and
we were digesting admirably under the
sweet strains, reminding us of days
long gone by, and could have staid
there forever. But as it very often happens
in life, two extremes meet, as the
soft variations from the party were at
their height, the writer of course was
called away. While the last notes of
that beautiful Scotch song Annie Laurie
died away on that clear moonlit night
air, we wended our way tad and lonely,
from the merry crowd to one in pain?
from those at the zenith of health to
the bedside of one sick, sad and forsaken,
stricken by the same hand who
gave those we left gayety and happiness.
Venly such is life !
In conclusion we wish the young
couple all the good and only the good,
the Great Uulcr of the Universe bus in
store for them, and thank all kindly for
the happy hours we spent on this occasion.
We had the pleasure of seeing and
examining at the residence of lion. C.
W. Kinard, a bible printed A. 1). 1720,
in the German language at Basel, Germany.
Very large, it was bound in
wood, covered with hog skin, with brass
plates corners and clasps, secured well
enough to stand the wear and toar of
several centuries more. It is illustrated
with wood cuts, showing the most
interesting events of ancient history,
and had in addition an original commendatory
from Dr. Martin Luther.
The book is comparatively well preserved
and for a lover of ancient literature
a great treasure. I remember to
have seen an old edition of the German
Bible shown to me with great pride, by
Col. James Edward Culhoun at his residence
on Savannah river. The Colonel
gave it a place of honor. These books
should be taken great care of. and if a
possessor has not the time or the taste
to do so he should put them in the hands
of one who will care for and profit by
them.
Our old friend and adviser, tho well
known and original Tully Branch was
in town last week for several days in
behalf of the Mutual Reserve Fund
Life Association, of New YnrW W?
wish him the greatest success and now
;reet him most heartily wherever these
lines uiay reach hi in.
The bed of the Narrow Gauge Railroad
through the town of Ninety-Six
was located last week. We hope sin*
serely that every body concerned will
be pleased with its location.
The Ninety-Six Stock Show will

St. I'ai'L, Minn., April 14.?St. Cloud und
Sunk Klipid.-, this Stat^, were swept by a terribly
destructive cyclone about 5.30 o'clock
this afternoon. The first knowledge of tlie
disaster wus continued iu a telegram sent to
Mayor Ames fromNSt. Cloud reoorting the
disaster and asking that a special be sent with
physicians. A similar dispatch was received
from Sauk Kapids. immediately upon receipt i

is very meagre, and sensational reports ur?
current tliut 100 people were killed. It is believed
that at lea^t fort)' persons have been
killed and about seventy-live wounded, but it
is impossible to get much information as vot.
All is excitement and the streets urs filled
with men and frighteued women and children.
The disaster is certainly appalling. As nearly
as can be learned scores of houses tiave
been entirely wrecked. Twelve physicians
were aboard the relief traiu which left for St.
Cloud.
St. Paul, April 14.?Private advices say
the storm struck the railroad between the
roundjhouse and depot, and swept a path 600
yards wide through the city, levelling between
i60 and 200 houses. M. H. Clark, a well known
lumberman who lives in St. Cloud says
ninety persons were kilted and more than 100
injured, many very seriously. Superintendant
Wakcman of the Manitoba Koad says
between thirty and forty persons were killed
at Sauk Kapids, a few miles Southeast of St.
Cloud, and nearly double that number tujured
The telegraph wires Northwest of this city
are all down and no news direct from either
St. Cloud or Sauk liapids has been received

Our correspondent who signs himself "A
Spade" writes good, sound Reuse. The Farmer's
Convention can accomplish nothing if
it ignores political matters altogether; for
one of its chief objects is to effect a political
reform in certain measures. No harm can
come of this. The danger to be avoided is
the organization of a farmers' political party
outside and independent of the regular democratic
party. That something of this sort is
contemplated by at least a few is evident from
the proceedings of the convention in Spartanburg,
where negroes?presumably republicans?were
allowed to vote for delegates, and
more evident from the proceedings of the
Pickens convention, in which a notorious and
partisan republican took a prominent part.
Advocating the filling of all officcs by farmers;
and this fellow heads the delegation to Columbin.
Some men in the convention will bear
watching and will have to be art down on ;
else they will bring discredit on the movement,
and prevent turning what was intended as a
benefit to all classes into a factious opposition
to all classes except farmers, thus establishing
an exclusive farmers' party. The good
sense, the conservatism, the patriotism, and
the democracy of the convention should and
no doubt will give the disorganizers the g. b.
