As will ho soi'n by reference to the report of the Farmers' Convention in another column, the farmers of this county are moving in the direction of arbitration. We believe the move is probably a good one, but think they have gone at it in the wrong direction. We see no necessity for legislation on the subject. In fact, legislation on the subject must necessarily involve appeals, and appeals mean litigation?the very thing they are seeking to avoid. It seems to us, if the farmers want to settle their minor disputes, without a recourse to the law, all they have to do is to agree among themselves to do so. Let each local club appoint a board of arbitration, and if necessary let the central club appoint one as a reviewing board, and then let all the farmers agree by resolution or otherwise to settle their disputes only before these boards, and that is all they will have to do. It is a question in our mind though, whether even this will help them out of their difficulties. Each side will havo to have witnesses, and these witnessos, if disinterested, cannot be expected to lose their time and labor without some compensation, and the expense will be almost as great as it is now. Moreover, is there not some danger that if thoy adopt a mode of arbitration that the minor disputes among the farmers will increase, under the impression that it will cost little or nothing to have them settled, and thus the very thing which the resolution aims to do away with will bo multiplied. These are questions which they must consider for themselves. We only throw them out as suggestions, and have no desire whatever to interfere with any of their plans or pet schemes. OUll RAILiKOADS. There is very little doubt in our mind, but that both the Carolina, Cumberland Cinp and Chicago, and also the Chester, Greenwood nnd Abbeville linilroads, are soon to be built. We base our predictions upon the general sentiment of the people along these lines. They recognize them as a necessity nnd are willing to spend their money for them. It is useless to sav uueht of the ! great benefit the completion of these roads will he to this place. It will put ut on nn equality with the best railroad .centre in the State, and our merchants will be enabled to compete with any .market as regards freights. It has come to this, we are obliged to have one or both of these roads, or else i?o to the ! ' wall, and we have no idea of going to the wail yet awhile. In addition to their being a necessity, it is contended they will btHh prove paying investments, both to the owners and to the counties through which they run. To the owners by the amount of business they will do, and to the counties by the amount of taxes they will pay. When they are completed, Abbeville county will lmvo more miles of railroad than ( any county in the State, and will hence derive a greater revenue from that i Bouree. May the day soon dawn when their completion will be a thing of the JmHt- , TUB ICIilJCTION. To-day the male citizens of this county 1 iw - Rim nunc are 10 cast their votes for ( State an<l Congressional officers. The | election of the Democratic nominees is 1 conceded, but this fact ought not to keep 1 any one from the polls. Let us show to J ?ho world that our faith in Democratic { Administration is still unshaken. Let us 1 show to our political enemies that wo can stUl present a solid phalanx, and Ahis will deter them from making a fight Jn when a President will be elect- j ad. Jt is not only the right of every .citizen, but it is his duty to cast his vote { to-day, and we confidently hopo that a i full vote will be polled, t JCNTKRPRiSE, : 1 The people of Abbeville appreciate ( very much the enterprise exhibited by * 4>ur daily papers both in Charleston and j Augusta. We now receive them three t fours' earlier than formerly and, in ad ddition to this, get them on Sunday, 1 jpomething that has been heretofore un- ^ known.- Wo feel now that we are more in tfca world than we have ever been, 1 and we ,owu it tQ our enterprising dailies. ft is roinarable that we of Abbeville j nhould read a paper published in Charles- \ ten, two hundred and thirty-seven miles t froui here, only a few hours after it is 1 B8v >' : !Kv;,v' llWWWMWi read there.

It will not do to let this hydra-headed monster gain a foothold in any part oi our State. Our State prosperity depends upon our political unity. It is to be sincerely hoped that that distinguished and political gentleman. Col. William Elliott, of Beaufort, will whip Bob Smalls out of his boots in the Congressional race in tho Seventh district. Due West Dots. Drummers are plentiful. The baby show began last week. The blind Mr. Parish lectured here last week. Col. Cochrane and Mr. Brock went to Anderson one day last week on business. Mr. II. W. Iladdon had his left hand torn up in the gin last week, lie lost the end of two of his fingers, li was struck by the brush wheel and other wise lorn. In passing by Mr. M. I>. Clinkscales' recently we could not help noticing! how much he has improved his land. | He has it nicely laid oft* with hillside j ditches, and evtry year is increasing its j fertility. lie now has fine corn and' cotton where a few years ago peas would hardly grow. Tins is the kind of fanning we need. In company with Prof. Miller we attended Mr.W. A.Todd's Sabbath school, near "The Hook." We enjoyed the evening, The good people of this section patronize the school well. Wo were rejoiced to see such an interest manifested. The closest attention was given throughout the exercises. Mr. Allen McAdams raised the tunes and j did it well, and the singing was good, j This school has the opportunity of do- \ ing much good. We hope it will be well j sustained. Mr. Todd and his teachers ! are doing a good work. Mr. Wm. Haddon thinks he has the finest boy in this section. At the ago ol a mile over two months he weighed 10 ; pounds. He pulled the beam at 13j pounds at his birth. Mr. J. E. Todd has commenced work j on Mr. Young's new house. He hopes! to complete it in December. There is a demand for houses to runt. This speaks well for the place. We had the pleasure the other evening of a ride behind Mr. Donald's $1200 ! horse and $110 buggy. The buggy .vas ! just off the cars from Columbus, Ohio, j "Maxey" will he n greater favorite now , with the girls than ever. With Mr. i Donald's energy and push and this turn- ! out the girls can't help saying "yes.*' j We appreciate recent kind words of the Press and Banner and the Mess an- i f/er. We are fearful, however, that we ! do not deserve them. Prof. Hood went out to investigate an ! earthquake near Mr. Robt. Dunn's, ofj Donalds. We have heard that he re- i ports it to he merely a landslide. The j Professor has been much interested in I -- -i ' ! viiv# vai biii|uaivu ouUJUUt UI1C1 pOStO<l on it. The committee appointed to dovi.se ft scheme to get up the current funds of the A. R. church have uinde a report, and the Deacons are appointed a committee to see after the matter. It is earnestly hoped the congregation will unite in giving the plan a fair trial. As we can tostify, the Mkssknoeu does beautiful job work at modest figures. We saw something nice in this line in their office Monday. Givo then. a trial. There was a lumber sale at John Andrew llagan's saw stand last Friday, and lumber brought all it was worth. Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Stone paid Augusta a visit last week. They report a pleasant time [and things moving on as usual in that august city. One of our prominent young men is particularly smiling these days. On dit that one of the important events of his life is drawing close to hand the particulars we leave blank for the present.

C. t. til A Wife's Separate Property. st p, I From the News and Courier.] ol Si'ARTANOURU, October 27.?In 1884, A. J. Gwynn and his wife entered into a mercantile partnership here, and in tii 1885, becoming embarrassed, executed a Cc deed of assignment to tho partnership ci assets, and about $10,000 worth of the re separate property of Mrs. Gwynn, all bt she owned, for tho benefit of the part- M nership creditors. Since that assign- or ment was executed the Supreme Co;urt m has decided that n married woman in in- th competent to contract and be contracted bt with, save as to her separate property, ki t? /' 1 oo ?>irs. vtwyiin, oy nor attorneys^ Pope be it Shawl, of Columbia, instituted an ao- dc tion to sot a*id?* the deed of assignment, hi in so far as it affects her separate estate, da upon the ground that she had no legal C? authority to enter into a partnership pi with any person, and more especially bi her husband. and consequently her sep- pr urate property was not liable for the so- cj( called partnership debts, and they, therefore, claim that the deed of assignment was exscutod by her under mistake of her legal rights. These positions arc stoutly contested by the creditors, who m \ \ ; . ;'( . t rj'\ il re represented by Duncan and Sanders n<l Colore! .J. fc>.

Joseph Daniel Pope for the plaintIf, and Col. J. S. 11. Thompson, for the .efenee. Th i cause being one involving inportant legal principles and considerble pecuniary interests, the Court reurved its decision. The general optnon is, however, that the ruport of the eferee will be sustained. The case will .oubtless go to the Supreme Court. A Ueorgla Hermit Haralson, Ga., Oct. 29.?There is a ?crmit who lives about two miles from his place who is a genuine curiosity, le is about 85 years old, walks half icnt and with much difliculty. llis and lies on the public road leading to ienoia, and instead of building near he road, he constructed a little log hut [i the most secluded spot on his place, enr a dismal swamp.
