We aro iifo'uned that a iegro
girl was drowned last Friday while
crossing -- Creek, in the neigh
borhood of Ridgeway. S8he was
walking the log over the creek,
when 4he lost her footing and foll
into the stre:am1 below.
There has really beei very littlo
coLton sold in Fairfield this ftd.
Any nmber of peopl promised to
pay their dues to TnE NELws AND
HmIV,D, as soon ats they should sell
their cotton. And as tlhy haven't
paid us, we must presume they've
not sold their cotton. Of course,
nobody ever promises to pay for a
;uOwspaper subscription without
promptly fulfilling the promise !
A SAn Acc im-Nr.-A very sad
accident occurred at the mill of
Mr. Thoimas Anderson, in this
county, on Thursday last. A child
of Mr. Chesley Matthews, aged
about four years, had beei playi.ng
ill tie mill when, inl some way, the
little thing fell through into the
water 11-low, aid was carried by the
stiream-11 a distance of ab,ut two hun
dired yards. H.Aere the lifeleFf body
w.is found. Whether the child wlis
k;illed by the fall or drowned, is not
knowni. The probabilities favor
the latter Faipposition.

"Tmin-ri'-rouni YEas. "---This is the
title of aL novel reccontly issue~d by
,tihe well known publishers, Claxton,
Itomsen & Haffelfingor', of Phila
delphia. It is called by its author
"An American Story of Southern
Life," and it is not inappropriately
named. Tile scOD is l,aid chiefly
in South LJauolina, anfd all the
characters, save one or two subordi
nate ones, are native Carolinians.
.In this respect the book is a great
imorovement on the works ttat
usually find their wa' into South
ern readers' hands. Most of us
have beou regale1, in our novel
reading, with descriptio's j, places
ad perhojis essentially forign
either of the North or of trans
Atlantic countrici. Thero aro two
objections to this. Such books
tend to belittle, ill the minds of
some readers, their own homes and
associates, and to inculcate a
depraved taste for thp foreign. In
"Thirty-four Yearr" is drawn a
faithful picture of Southern life and
of some phases of Southern charac
ter. Th scenes portrayed-chiolly
the picture (if Cliistm on a
Southern plantation-aro all vivid
and homelike, giving the reader an
imniodi.-te sense of their reality.
The chineter of a true Carolina
woman is excellently portrayed in
Agnes Moore, the boroine of the
story. Tho interest in the talo is
not awakoned in the first pages,
but grows as the different charac
ters come on the scene. The love
story is well conceived, and the
reader is made to wonder all along
how it will cnd-one of the chief
aims of every good novelist. The
incidents interwoven with it are all
drawn from life, and are mostly
based on historical facts-the early
bAttles of the War of Secetision, the
stto of i.s after Lee's sur
r,iie, a dio th kiux troulcs in
t'." 't.tC. 'TI-L faulft of the book
are two--a somewhat redunmdant
and too florid stylo of narrative;
and putting into the mouths of
very youthful characters words
beyond their understanding and
cP1veying ideas beyond their con
I0cPtion. This latter, however, is a
fault alnost universal in story
books, and the reader's interest in
"Thirty-four Years" is not much
diminished by it. Altogether,
"Thirty-four Years" is a nice little
story, and its readers, w hen finish
ing its last page, Will advise Henry
AMaremont-for such is the nom
de plume of the authoress-to give
us something more.
Of "Henry Marebmont" te
.Edgefield Advertiser says: "The
author comes by intellect and
literary abilit.y most lawfully, being
a desceondant, only one stop remov
ed, of the old Nott fanily, of our
State, which has given the South
on0 of her most eminent judges,
andl two or three of her most
illustrious scientific men."
The book has been favorably
comme)nted on by the press-among
them Pornevy's .Repubilicani, Phila
delphia, which has this terse criti
cism: "This is a well-written work,
with the disadvantage of being a
story of the late war." The "dis
advantage" alluded to lies, possibly,
in tile fact that the author gives
the Souther-n side of tile story
which F1ornfleyc's Rep~ublican :mntly
not like to read.
"Thirty--four Years" is for sale at
the bookstore of Messrs. M.cManori
& .Brice.
