It is very difficult to keep our
little ones free from the disorders
of babyhood, and we advise all
mothers to keep Dr. Bull's Baby
Syrup handy in caso of need.
SuRIous AOOIDENT.-On Saturday
evening, as Monroe Liston, colored,
w%s bringing a pitcher of sulphuric
ao.d from Mr. A. P. A1iller's cellar, the
K liquid splashed, and part of it went
hto his eye, eating it out nearly to
the brain, besides severely burning
his cheek. His sufrings were in
tense. He is, however, recovering.
A call for a Democratic county
convention, to be held on the 15th
K. of June, appears in another column.
It is hoped that there will be a full
attendance of delegates from all
the clubs. Under the constitution
already adopted, each local club is
entitled to one delegate from the
club at large, and one additional
delegate for every twenty-five mem
bers-that is, a club of less than
twenty-five membors is entitled to
one delegate, a club of twenty-five
members, to two dele;ates, a club
of fifty to three, and so on. Every
club organized since tha adoption
of the constitution is required to
have at least twenty-five members
enrolled, in order to entitle it to
representation in the convention.
AROUND TowN.-osq uitoes are
thawing out.
Who will show the first cottor
bloom ?
The Irish potato exhibition, we
believe, has closed.
Such a cleaning of guns hasn't
been seen since the war closed.
The New York Herald reaches
Winnsboro the day after its publi
cation.
Winnisboro still enjoys immunity
from the insurance agent and the
lightning-rod peddler.
It is rumored that the schedule of
the Charlotte, Columbia, and Au
gusta Railroad is to be changed
again next Sunday.
A revival among the colored
Methodists is going on, and they
are becoming "convicted" by the
'hundreds.
Twelve rattles and a button are
the full dress uniform of the rattle
snake. The military don't care for
the rattles so long as they can sling
on the buttons.*
THE MILITARY Ho.-The Gordon
Light Infantry gaLve an impromptu
hop at the Thespian Hall on Mon,
day evening, which was at
tended by the elite of the town.
The members of the corps were in
full uniform, and the epaulets and
buttons and lace flashing in the
light of the chandeliers were a
pleasing accompaniment to the
beauty and grace of the ladies. The
entertainment opened with a grand
march to the inspiring straiirs of the
Cornet Band, after which the regu
lar programme of dances followed.
Quadrilles, waltzes, lancers, glides,
galops, succeeded each other in regu
,,lar order, and the merry feet of the
~anders kept time to the embalming
music contributed by the Messrs..
1awls, of Columbia, and the musical
tnt of the town. A slight showi
er during the evening tempered the
a tmosphere. The Infantry dis-.
leed great gallantry and devotion,
Ad acquitted themselves as heroes
~ hould. The .corporals especially

WfI~~t4 ad to the enjoyment
Tipe was treading
foot'fall, that the evening was far
spent when the assemblage dis
persed. This was a most enjoyable
reunion, and it is to be hoped that
the Gordon Light Infantry will lot
it ho but the beginning of a series
of entertainments. To the mana
gers and committeemen much credit
is due for the pleasure afforded on
Monday evening.

Politics---The Schools and the Crops
Good Accounts from the Grange.
FEAsTERvILLE, My 23.-Since my
l.ist report the Feasterville Demo
cratic Club has had two meetings
the first of which was called for the
pirpose of reorganizing. V. P.
Clayton was elected president, and
upon being conducted to the chair
by a committee, appointed by the
retiring president, made a very
appropriate impromptu speech.
T. W. Traylor was elected vice
president, W. B. Estee, secretary ;
and J. Hendrix McLane, a member
of the County Executive Committee.
At the second meeting which was
held on the 18th, and was very
harmonious, the following namod
members, J. Hendrix MeL.e, V.
P. Clayton, J. Feaster Lyles, H. C.
Coleman. J. F. V. Logg, Wni. J.
Crowder, J. G. Coleman and D. 11.
Feaster, were, in this order, by
bacllot, chosen to represent us in
the County Convention, when
c Jled, which I expect will be at an
early date.
Wheat and oats are both good.
Corn and cotton are kept back by
the cool weather ; but the stands
are good, and as it is now warm all
will soon be well. Irish potatoes
are fine. Blackberries will soon be
in, so we can't perish.
The Grange here is doing so
well that I will not attompt to
measure to you its future happy
prospects.
There are four white schools in
the township. One is conducted
by the Rev. J. D. Mahon. Miss
Bettie Mobley, who is perfectly
accomplished, has charge of the one
at Feasterville. Miss Chanie J.
Coleman, a young lady of much re
finement, the third, and Mi- s
Shelton, an amiable young lady, the
fourth. You can easily see, since
there is so much attraction and
temptation connected with three of
these schools, why it is that so
many of the masculine gender, not
more thanm twenty-five or thirty
years old, would like to be cons
vorted into school boys, but
There are also several colored
schools in the township.
The telephone, consisting simply
of two tin cans and a twine string,
is in use among us.
Health is extraordinarily good.
The mad-dog epidemic is on the
wane. Hurrah for Hampton and
Woodward. TI.
