Tbe Union Meeting of the Barnwell
Baptist Association was held at this
place on Saturday and Sunday last.
Rev. G. W. Hicks was choseq Modera

proceedings.
Florida, Our Land of Flowers.
A throng of sufferers with coughs
and colds annually go South to enjoy
the ethereal mildness of the land
of flowers. To them we would
say the necessity of that expen
sive trip is obviated by Coussens’
Homicide.
We regret to say that a homicide
occurred in tbe county on Wedn?sday
the 25th, on the plantation of Mr. O.
D. H. Wilson near Beldoc. The de
ceased was Titus Hay. a colored man,
who was killed by Mr. WiNon. Tbe
facts of the case as we have gathered
them -Irotn a reliable source, are as
follows: Titus Hay worked on Mr.
Wilson’s place ; Mr. Wilson bud bad
dogs, kept for the protection of his
place and property ; these dogs seemed
to be a source of constant annoyance
to Titus Hay, and the day before
the homicide ho had attempted
to kill one of the dogs. Before
this Hay had carried a pistol and
being asked why he did so, said he in
tended to kill Wilson’s dogs and him
also if ho resented it. On tho next
day, after attempting to kill the dog,
Mr. Wilson met Hay In the field and
asked him about trying to kill his dog.
Titus flew into a passion and said bo
would kill bis dogs if they Interfered
with him. Mr. Wilson told him to
leave his plantation, and Hay replied
that he would not unless ho was paid.
Mr. Wilson agreed to pay him, but
the negro said be would not leave his
house until January. Mr. Wilson told
him he v.o tld pay him and that he
must leave his place, when Titus flew
at him with a pistol in one band and
a hqe in the other, oursing and swear
ing, and Mr. Wilson shot him.
An oW tody, araery Eve years 513,

A limb of the law has gone on a fish

Mr. H. D. Still and Miss Marion
Bowman were united in the holy bonds
of matrimony last Sunday.
Some of the boys went fishing last
week and camped out all night. They
returned with "nary” a fish.
Ruins have been abundant lately.
Crops are looking fine, and farmers
are cheerful in consequence.
A picnic is to be held at Millbouse’s
milkon July 4tb, Many parties from
this place have been invited. A good
time may be expected.
Mr. T. M. Welsh took his departure
for Ireland last Friday midst the re
grets of many warm friends. His safe
arrival at bis destination and a speedy
return to'Blackyjlle is tho heartfelt
wish of many. Quite a carnival party
partook of some of Dr. G. B. Lartigue’s
fiarnwclljfripea in honor of bis depart
ture.
About the year 1791 the State grant
ed to Daniel Coalton and James Stew
art vaffous tracts of land amounting
In the aggregate to 21 820 acres, which
are situated near Blackvllle on the
north, extending south beyond Bu
ford’s Bridge, abd from near Williston
on the west to some part of Colleton
county on the east side. The Auditor
has been Instructed to enter up such
of it as he may bo able to locate

6. Mr. Jake G—-—has been adding

has some work quite ornamental and
which presents quite a handsome ap
pearance from the railroad. He, like
Mr. Gray, is a bachelor, or rather wid
ower, and contemplates other changes.
ThoTowa Couoetf at a late meeting
appointed a committee to inquire into
tbe practibiilty of cutting a public
road from this place to Campbellton
on the railroad and a branch road
to Barker’s Mill. The advantages to
the town of this road are very great,
as it opens the way to a large scope of
country from which the people-have
no access to Allendale, except to go
several miles out oPtbe direct way.
Wo are hearing the steam whistles
blow, on all sides. Those who beve
corn to grind can come to Allendale
when the mill ponds dry up, as we
have three steam grist mills in full
blast.
Our popular Commissioner, Mr.
Frank Creech, had bis gin bouse burn

and baa arrested one Tack Baynard
who is now in jail charged with .the

Isaac Glemens, a colored man work

some three miles from the village, was
struck by lightning and instantly killed
on Wednesday last. It appears that
Isaac and his son were plowing in the
field when a slight rain came up, ac*
eompaoled by lightning. He and the
boy stopped plowing, leaving the mules
standing, and the father, to protect
himself from the rain, leaned against
a small pine tree. His son, who was
some distance off, told him he had bet*
ter come away from the tree as it was
dangerous, but the father paid not at
tention to the warning, and in a few
moments a deftenlng report was heard.

Mn. Editor : Your Allendale cor.
respondent seems to have deserted his
post, and for several months past we
have seen no mention in your paper
of vailous items of general and local
interest. It Is not fair that we should
have no space In your columns for
what newspaper men call the “ Dots ”
of our section of the county, and hard.
Indeed, if Allendale cannot from
among our patriotic and public-spirited
citizens furnish a single reporter.
Your correspondent would cheerfully
assume the task, but bis accomplish
ments do not run In that direction,
and there are so many better fitted for
tbe undertaking than myself. For
once, however, I will notice the follow
ing dots in brief:
Allendale is rapidly impr#flng and
growing, and in tbe midst of the pres
ent hard times we have in course of
erection at least half a dozen new
buildings.
Mr. J. M. Gray, whose steam mill
has done so much towards building up
the town, bus concluded to build for
himself a commodious residence, and
we see that the work has already been
begun. Mr. Gray is a bachelor, and
the current opinion is that be is tired
of bis single blessedness, and will not
be" so selfish as to devote those spa
cious apartments to bachelor uses.
Mr. I. L. Tobin, having disposed sf
his residence on Hickory street, is now
building a larger and better one on
the Main street, which he promises
shall not be an eye-sore to the town.
Mr. Perryclear, the baker, bos
moved up into town, and we are glad
to see him holding forth in his new
shop on Main street. .
Mr. Kaphftn has succeeded in ob
taining a lease of the property known
as the Williams’ lot, consisting of one
acre, upon which the following stores
are to be built immediately, and Mr
Gray la sawing the lumber for tbe
same:
1. Mr. Kaph&n will bnllt for himself
a large store in which he proposes to
open a confectionery and friiit estab
Allendale. 8. C., June 27,1879.
Editor Pbodlk: Mr. J. Wilson
Williams, who broke his leg in falling
from his wagon some time ago on bis
way from Allendale to his residence,
died on the 26th lost. He was burled
with Masonic honors at Saltkehatehlo
Church on the following day.
The AHendale Base Ball Club played
their second match-game with the
Democrat Club at Yarnsvllle on tho
25th lost. The latter club came off
victorious in each game, though they
had to work hard for it.
Rev Wm. Perryclear, son of our
townsman, Rev. J. 8. Perryclear, and
recently from Furman University,
preached a very interesting and In
structive sermon at Union Church on
Sunday, night last. Everyone was
pleased with him.
A new schedule is to go Into effect
on the Port Royal & Augusta Railroad
on July the 1st, taking off tbe day
passenger mall and express train and
running thftn- at bight, Which will
make it convenient for parties having
a day’s bueinees ia Augusta.
Mr. W. R. W’right, who had his gin
house and machinery destroyed by
fire some time ago, bas erected a new
and better one. He has a grist mill run
ning, and is about to put up a new
Brown Gin, feeder and condenser,
and promises to do tho work of the
planters very rapidly and satisfac
torily.
The Tax Assessor, Mr. Mike Gra
ham, was here on tho 25th and 26tb.
The dry weather for the past few
weeks has enabled tho planters to rid
their farms of grass, and everything
is doing finely.
The Town Council had all the stray
goats taken up and sold at public auc
tion on Monday last, and goats are no
longer to be allowed to run at large cn
tbe streets.
The health of Allendale is very
good, while that of “Old Allendale,’’
three miles from here, is just the re*
verse. There bus been several cases
of typhoid fever there, and two of
three deatt s. Mr. Thomas Ellis lost
his wife on tbe 23d Inst,

Dear People : May be that you

this being tbe case we are hear right
now very lively.
To-morrow, July 1, we are to have a

The Way to Tell Whether a Ma
chine Will Pay or Not.
Consider the first cos!, the probable cost
of repair; then bow long it w.ll last. Then
begin to run Up the profits you expect to re
ceive by its use, and you will see whether it
will pay or not.
For example, we will runup tbe cost and
profits of one of TOOLE’S LATEST IM-
I’ROVED FIRE-L’ROQF CONDKN-SER AND
PRRFKCT DUSTER. The cost of one for a
40 saw gin is $45. This includes tbe at
taching of it to the gin, and proving whet tier
it will do or not. We will put down $1 per
year for repairs. We will now run up what
little we may expect to rcoeive by Its use.
The Condenser takes the place of your waste
ful lint, rooms, which range in cost from $10
to $20, saying nothing about the much
needed space they take up. Now put down
the next thing they are especially good for,
and that U to burn out when you are least
expecting it Now, what does it cost me?
$500 nr $1,000, besides, 1 had a good deal
of cotton and a great many seed burned,
also five or ten ba'.esbeknging to my eus.
■tomers. They too have to share the risk
and loss of this misirable lint-room arrange
ment, and are entitled to no insurance.
Now, put down your immense loss in dusty
cotton. Yen may conclude that dusty cotton
sells lower, but weighs liigher. In this you
arsbadly mistaken, Tho matter in the
earth or sand which gives storm cotton a
black, dingy cast is as light as a feather.
You can prove it. Oo to a black, dusty
place in the road in a dry time, and kick the
sand about, and you will see it rise and float
off in the air. It is lighter than air. Yon.
will not get itch as quick by its weight ai
you will get poor by its looks. Yonr top
,cotton will get badly soiled in the bolt in a
dryi 1 Windy time in this way. To prove
what we sometimes lose by dusty cotton, I
wilt produce the certificate of It. Red, Esq.,
wlio had a bale dusted by tbe Condenser,
and one ginned in a lint-room, in order to
test the difference:
Windsor, 8. C„ Sept. 8, 1874.
J. L, Tools—Dear Sir: l did as I told you
about the cotton. 1 hauled the two bales to
Aiken yesterday. Tlte cotton was all
gathered as near as I could get it. Jafus,
oWnet of lint-room gin, mud have had an
an awfully nssty lint room from ginning
dusty cotton. 1 believe it looked worse at-
ter than before it was ginned. You beat
him badly, I got 18J cents for his bale and
14 cents for yours. 1 lost just enough td
pay for the ginning of one bale, $8.76. 1 be
lieve in your duster.
Yours respectfully, H. RED,
Now, let us see what can be sated by it in
one year, supposing every gin to use one. It
is estimated from reliable sources that there
is an overage of 125 gins burned accideu
tally throughout the South annually. Sup.
pose rtrem; including their contents, to av
erage in value $1,000. Here is $125,000
in one year from this quarter. Now, it will
not ho considered exaggeration in cotton
manufacturing circles to estimate that one-
fourth of the wholo crop is damaged by dust,
and we will average this loss at one-quarter
of a cent per pound, rt’e generally raise
from four to five million hales per year
{Suppose ihc dusty bales to average 400 lbs,
and the whole crop, four and a half millions.
Here is onemilliouone hundred and twenty-
five thousand dollars mdroaved that would
have gone into the Lands of the manufactu
rer, under the plea of dusty or storm cotton.
They have machinery to clear It of dust,
therelore, they make more money on it than
on clean cotton They ge: it in many cases
from $5 to $10 less per bale, when in reali
ty it is as good as any cotton gathered.
I am now putting ujT two styles of these
machines bo suit purebassrs, ranging Ip
price from $"0 to {45 up, guaranteed to
work well in every particular with but little
attention,
gtndy the means of saving,
And you will soon have tbe meansbf making.
