Pratt, of Ninety-Six, are alsc j? present to represent Abbeville county Nothing of moment occurred on oui <. ^rij? here. We came over the Coasi :' Line to Lane's where a special train mel A - tis and brougt us to Georgetown. The depot here was crowded with people come to see us arrive. The George * .-town Lodge which has exerted itself ir ^ every way to make this meeting pleas <; ant, had provided every vohicle the} y could obtain to take us to our hotels $jr t . tdok a place in a double wagon ir Which seats had been improvised b] placing planks across the body. Rij ft Cowan also got in here and just as h< -1 a. i-i.. L _ . .\. _ .1.: ry-'\WB8 UUUUl IU IUKU IMS S??t LUC UriVUI i'V ? tar ted off with a flourish, throwing Mr. Cowan over the side of tho wagor pud ogainst the wheel. The situatior |-v was perilous in the extreme, and ren ,y;. dered more so by the fact that Mr tv' Cowan has but one arm. Fortunately fc 1 he caught hold of the seat of the wag S: (pn and hold on until we rescued him shescaping with no more serious injun Uv; jthan the bruising his hip, and the tear | . jrig of his breeches. But his coat-tail: ^ hid the latter injury. Our Jehu wa f now evidently bent upon cutting a fig ||| jure before the crowd which had beer & *j?$3ei)nbled by this accident, and he pu jv'hip to hjs already excited steeds, an< pj ^eith ono bound they broke the double p |lroe, jerked the Jines out of his hands gi and startpd up the street at full speed hold together by the cross-bar of th< M?|ongue* After running several hun ,? dred yards, one of them was dashe< Br against a telegraph pole, breaking on R| pf his hind legs so badly that he had t W& be killed. Thus did we signalize ou Hty- *).- : i' . entree into this ancient burg. But ou here sinco has been as peaceful am i^ ^.qujet as our entrance was exciting am jg||;. tragic. I need not stop to tell j'ou any Sj| thing of the meeting of our Gram ^ Jjodge. There is very littlo indeed tlin Ipl'I would be allowed to make public Suffice it to say that we have had a ful {iodgo and a most harmonious am : V pleasant session. Few of us up-country people havi any just conception of the quaint oli 'f': jtown of Georgetown. Until the build ilU lllff flf fVlrt rronri?otnwn nri'l I .?nn'o l>?il ? """" ~ """ ^ Toad .within the" last few years, tin ' / plage was so isolated from the rest o ;,;*''-;.-|ho ?t*te that practically, all intercoursi jwas cut off. The most of us thought o jt as o|d and dilapidated and old-fogyisl town. Well it is old, being ante-ttevo lutionary in its birth, But it is neithe ;; dilapidated nor old fogyish. On tin contrary, it is full of crtergy and vim V. It has a harbor not surpassed by any 01 the coast except perhaps Port Royal Winyah Bay is as plaoid and beautiful i sheet of water as my eyes ever reste< "upon. The Sampit river. upon whos< . .. Ibosom, vessels ride at their wharves ii 'S ;the town of Qoorgetown?the Black riv |?i', fir. 'thfi Sfintpp nnft tlin Wnonotnoirf? ft unite to empty their waters here an< ' Win the Bay. Unfortunately, the san< ||:-1upon the bar, prevents at certain time t5; the passage of vessels. But the Gov V; , ornment is at work deepening the bar p and it is sincerely hoped' that Congres . rwill not fail to make the necessary ap propriation to carry qn this most impor ^lant enterprise. The local Lodge gav< % the Grand Lo<}ge a delightful sail dowi fc the ^ay to the bar. Four steam tug > Vote drawn into service and we enjoy ?- fd the novel pleasure of "riding on th 'liirfnv deeu." It was a nleaaurn not ?l ' ~u~ f- f? i .r " *" t - ~ together Unmixed with pain. Occasion < illly some land lubber, whose knowledge wAter consisted of ai> acquainting with a fish pond/ would have qualms v not of conscience, bijt of some of his in ternal organs, that necessitated recours \vto lemons-, and other remedies. W passed North Island, upon which, Geii |^;.^Kp."^Ll63t?ndfer has his summer resi dence, and South Island, upon whicl |?many of tho rice planters have thei cummer residences. Very (many fisl caught here. Several Norther ^companies have been for a number o | seasons past, catching quantities o I sturgeon, which are kept in pens, till i i vessel comes along when they an Slaughtered and packed and shipper I North. Froto thence they return to u Ip^iyUmon-^fe w bones of tho salmoi , being put in each box to carry out th fe^eception. These . fame people kil p^thousands 0f duck in and out of sensor |ftkn4 h?*k made necessary the stringen laws recently enncted by our Leg ? islature.' Georgetown has about 2800 inhabi .ants, ana l venture to assort mat sne has the best fire department of any city of that size in the State. Sbe has four fire companies, two white and two col: ored. A grand parade of the department was given in our honor. ai;d I was ; amazed at the magnitude thereof. Two hundred and two firemen were in line, all well uniformed and eqniped with . fine apparatus. The races and contests which followed showed that the Winyah i Company, which nbout two -years ago wan so much honor and so much praise f at the Tournament in Columbia has lost none of its fleotness or skill, but is f ready to test the same against any coxn, ers. > One of the objects of espccial interest . in Georgetown is the Episcopal Church, r It was built somewhere between 1690 t and 1700. and is a quaint and attractive t old building. Till recently it was cov? ered with ivy, the original sprig of ? which was brought from St. Paul's in - London by a resident of this place. The i pews are the old high-back square pews - which one sees in St. Michael's, and in r which one may turn his back on the . minister and sleep with comfort. In i those pews the Hritish stabled their ? horses when they occupied the place ) during the Revolutionary War. Old . fashioned Prayer Books of the sixteenth r century in which the ss' are all ffs, 5 down to the latest and most modern edii tions occupy the desk. The bell, I bei lievo, was also brought from England . and on certain occasions rings out a . sweet toned chime. f I had the pleasure ^'of meeting Mr. - Walter S. Hnzzard, a distinguished f young lawyer and editor of the Enquirj cr and an exinciuber of the Legislature. I might ramble on thus without end s to write of the attractions of this lovely s old town with its streets of lovely trees . and gardens of flowers. But t am i mindful that my readers have not seen t these things, nor enjoyed the warm hosi pitality of the people, hence, I may _ weary them. To me it is a source t>l i, ever pleasant contemplation. I, The Grand Lodge ,is greatly indebted e, to Dr. G. ... T. Spark man, Maj. James - Sparkman, Mr. L. S. Khricli and Dictai tor Levy of the local Lodge, for theii e untiring efforts to entertain its member? o Truly they left undone nothing that r could contribute to nnr nlmisnm nr?/1 r comfort. The crowning feature of the d occasion was a grand banquet given by d the citizens to the Lodgi at the hall ol - the NVinyah Indigo Society?a society il formed very very many }'ears ago., over t it is said tho tempting "contents of a huge punoh bowl, but which hnt^ 1 done much for learning and literature 1 and society in its day. A Charleston caterer had expended all his skill in the e preparation of*the viands for this ban\ quel, and the wine was red and ruby. More than this I need not say, other than that our friends sensibly dispensed B with all formal and set toasts and ref sponses. But volunteer toasts gave ope portunity for the expression of feelings f of mutual admiration and pleasure. 1 IIow derelict I would be to all my . principles, to m}' gallantry and to my r duty if I did not reserve to the last some B little word of admiration for the sweetest and loveliest of Georgetown's at^ tractions?the ladies. Many a day's journey would fail to find so many and a such lovelv women. As I in company j with my young friend from York, wanB dered along the bluffs that overlook the 1 Sampit, with two of the most charming and beautiful of thn vi>rr mnnv wr. _ seen, we were templed to drink copij ous'.y of Sampit's pellucid stream, since j it is sqid that he who has once drunk s thereof cannot fail to return again to _ quench his thirst at the same spot. Dear old Georgetown I Your many ats tractions nud i:inu:iesses have filled my _ heart with the tendcrest recollections . of my stay in your midst, and fervently a I pray , uLong, long, bo my heart with such s memories filled." e IP IT BE TRUE, Intelligence has been received here e that fills the souls of all of the ^ friends of the C.. C. G. & C. It. It. with 5 y*y- I1 seems now very probable that '' the road will De built, and with disQ patch. How joyful this must be to those Q who through good, and through evil report have stood by the fortunes of thn enterprise. Rarely has there been in ^ the midst of us such an acrimonious r contest as was had along the line in Ab^ boville County when subscriptions were ^ being voted to tho road. Our people j. will npt soon forget it. And it cannot f hut be pfoasant to those who stood the ^ heat and burden of that fight to gee again the hope revive that their labors j will net be without their reward. s , CAN IT BE TRUE ? 0 1 We republish from the Abbeville Me, dium an articlo from a correspondent at t Ureonwood anent tho new railroad, . which bvoathuH a spirit which wc do not "Water! do Palling into Line" [Augusta Chronicle.] Waterloo, S. C., April 23.?One of the largest and most enthusiastic railroad meetings ever held in our county convened at this place yesterday for the purpose of taking into consideration the interest of Waterloo as a point op the proposed road which is to connect Ath - V believe is representative of Greenwood. It cant bo true that Greenwood actually believes that Abbeville went to Columbia entertaining a desire or intention to give Greenwood tne go by if possible. Abbeville has not coquetted with any place, and the bona fldex expressed by the correspondent is unjust and unfounded. We hear that Greenwood does not endorse the correspondents views. Who is he ? Does he live in Greenwood ? Due West Dots. A beggar in town. Grass is beginning to grow. Rev. C. K. Todu spent a day in town last week. Light rains last Wednesday, with a good season at the "liook." "Vasmer" from Ninety-Six gets up a good dish. Messrs. John A. Devlin and A. 1). Kennedy have the iinest barley patches in town. ltev. W. F. Pearson has a line cow. She gives three gallons of milk a dav and from which plenty of butter is made. We were much pleased with Mr. Beliefs article on the negro. It is the best thing yet. We heartily endorse it. l'rof. Todd has the prettiest and coziest residence in town. Some of our citizens were surprised at its location, but the t'rolessor has developed it into one of the nicest situations in the place, with tasty and convenient improvements. Mr. J. A. Brock, Cashier of the Anderson Hank, gave his , brother of this place, a visit last week. Mr. Brock is a high toned gentleman with a.splendid record as a bank official. The printer slipped up on us in tnak- : ing us say "Sunday.'' The Associate Reformed Presbyterian uses the word "Sabbath." He has no authority for anything else either in his bible or his catechism. The Associate Reformed Presbytery that met at Ora, Laurens County, was a very full and interesting one. Action on the union question was postponed until Fall. We hope the evoljtion business will be definitely settled by the General Assembly in Augusta. It would seem to an outsider that l)r .Woodrow is carry, ing a fearful responsibility. This evolution business is getting nauseating. We hope the Ueneral Assembly will sit down on it. i iiev. W. F. Pearson has just finishod a splendid underground milk house with bottom cemented and excellently arranged. In the winter he will use it ' for a hot house, lie says lie has the ; best wife in the State and wants to make her comfortable in every way. The council has decidcd that all nonresidents sellinir crouds at retail in l)ne West hereafter, shall be required to pay " a license lor this privilege. Prof. Young was much pleased with his trip to Florida. ile reports the ( country as settling up fast and that iin. mediately in the section where his son. Rev. C. 8. Young is living he saw the finest pine timber he ever saw any 1 where. Prof. Young has invested some > capit-il in these lands. Lie thinks the . pros{ . of establishing an Associate Reformed ehurch at this point excellent. The permanent loss to the State by last winter's freeze is only estimated at about "one-third the next orange crop. l)r. .J. L. Miller & Co have ordered a . beautiful soda fountain for their drug store. Two of the drug stores in town will have soda fountains. Mr. J. II. Wrenn is pushing towards completion the Little River church. Our Baptist friends in town are are just, waiting for In in to begin on their church, and President Kennedy is also waiting on his job.'

Jfresbytci'ian A good suggestion we think. Mr. W. T. Cowan, who representeil the Knights of Honor of this place at the meeting in Georgetown, reports a pleasant trip and a must interesting meeting. The prospects of the Carolina, Cumberland Uap and Chicago Railroad ure brightening. Mr. Schoiield reports definite arrangements made with Mr. Talmage of the South Carolina Knilroad. He is also closing a contract with the Louisville and Nashville road. We are glad to note a better and more unanimous feeling at Abbeville Court House on railroad interests. Let us nil work together hereafter. Other towns do. Prof. Saunders gave an excollent elocutionary m!rfnmiu?ir?i? in tKn !.??? ? ? ~ Friday night. Those who hnnrd him were well pleased. It was at the earnest solicitation of his class. The'orshestra led by I)r. E. 11. Edwards, assisted at the exhibition. The schools at Due West are in a very flourishing and satisfactory condition. Walter ij. Mil lor, Esq., of the Abbeville bnr, spent a couple ol' dnys in town last week. Mr. Miller is placed on the oxamining committee of Krskin >. I The little folks had a most enjoyable pound party at Mr. W. P. Kennedy's last Friday ovenin-;. The colored Presbyterians of this place have built a beautiful and attractive church. It i? a credit to the town. Their pastor. Rev. Davis, is n wor*hy colored man with a tine education. This congregation keep up a fine school with two teachers, and do not draw pay from ' the public fund. This congregation is a live, active one and doing a good work.

Whortonas chairman and Maj. T. B. Anderson, secretary. Col. Whorton s'ated briefly the object of the meeting explaining the various important northean and western connections, and the numerous other advantages that would be derived from this road, and eloquently referring to the vital importance of Waterloo coming with other towns boldly to the front in this great enterprise^ Mr. \Y. 15. Whorton, a representative from the western portion of our county spoke long and eloquently, pledging a large subscription and the untiring aid of his section, extending from Iteesly river, in this county, tn the direction of Cokesberry. Other representatives from Hunter township followed in the same strain of determination and liberality. After some discussion on side issues Mr. ?J. T. Harris moved that a committee of three, consisting: of Mr. \V. H. Whorton, 1). C. Smith and 15, A. Anderson he appointed to ascertain and report as to the amount of money that could be raised in the town, which resulted in a subscription of 10,000 in favor of the road, will, the promise of more if necessary. Another committee of nine, consisting of Mr. S. 1). Tucket. h. IS. Smith, .Joe. I'earce, J. T. Harris, A. \V Si.inns, I) C. Smith, W \Y. Walker, F M. Fuller, and Dr. Alsey Fuller were appointed for the purpose of canvassing the township, along the lino, and ascertaining definitely the amount that could be raised in time to report fully at the coming convention at Greenwood. At this convention Waterloo will bo represented by the following committee: Col. J H Whorton, Mr S 1) I'ucket. W T Smith, l)r Frank Fuller, W X Whorton 1) C Smith, J T Harris, W li Whoaton, Major T li Anderson and l)r F 1) Coleman. Waterloo is unquestionaply a town of which her citizens have a risrht to be proud, surrounded as she is by the largest plantations and finest farming lands in the State, shipping from six to seven thousand bales of cotton annually and distributing more manufactured goods than any two towns of her population in uper South Carolina. Consequently, she will be found "wide awake" when bids for the new road are in order. W. Greenwood on her Metal. [Special to tbc Medium.] G keen wood, S. C., April 19th, 1886.? Intendant C. A. C. Waller was the recipient of hearty commendations by his constituents on his return from the railroad convention in Columbia, for his prompt and omghatim rebuhc of the discourtesy exhibited towards his town | township, by Abbeville, through one of I her delegates. The affront was the more pointed because numerous intimations had been received previously of tho spirit and design of the town of Abbevile towards her sister town, which was irritating enough of itself, and hence, it is not surprising that a direct "slap in the face" was not tamely submitted to. This town is town on her ineta'. We have received reliable infnrmntinn from Col. liowen that Mr. Schofield has succeeded in obtaining as much money as will be needed in building this road from j^exington, Ky., to Aiken. The Louisville and Nashville and the South Carolina Railroads have taken hohl ol the road and they propose to complete it as soon as possible. A meeting of the Directors will be held at Greenwood on the 15th of May and then it will be decided when to commence the work, and the road will be completed as fast as possible.?Edyeficld Chroniclc.
