BASE BALL.-For 'some: time the young men .of.our town' 'avo been discussing thoesubject of organizing a base ball club, and, ol 'Citosday evening a meeting was hold in L t,he Town, Hall for the purpose of pdrfecting the organization of an association. -Mr. J. IH. Cum mings was called to the chair, and Mr. 11. T. Cawford acted 's secretary. s After discussing several matters of d importance, a committee was s,ppoint ed to draft a constitution and by-laws for the government of the assoctation. A committee was also appointed to solicit mmboership. 'Anothe: inept in g will be hold in the Town Hall this evening at 8.46 o'clock, when the f pernanent .organization will be per fected, and all persons who feel an interest ii base bill are requested to f be present and become nembers -of the association. Winnslioro' has nero tofore taken great interest in the iiational gaine, and we fool Wuye that those gentlemen who have the matter in charge will make :a. success ot it. We havo the material to make up a first-class amateur team, and none but the b'ebt players will be selected when the club is formed.. -Keep the ball rolling. A DOUAJLE W DId. One of the happiest events of the season occurred Tuesday afternoon, the 24th inst., at the Baptist Church, the occasion being a dual marriage. Thqhappy partids to the contract wore Misses Bollo and Luclo Boyd, the charming daughters of our fellow townsman and popular School Cqm nissioner, Dr. John Boyd, and Messrs. Geo. M. Hicks and R. 11. Browne. t The church had been tastefully deco 6 rated with evergreens and floral de l signs by the admiring friends of the parties, itid everything 'wis in keep ing with the joyous occasion. At 6.10 p. in., marching"to the tune of the "Wedding Quickstep," artisti f cally rendered by 11. N. Oboar, Esq., - the parties entered the church; Mr. Hicks and Miss-Belle taking tho right, t and Mr. Browne and Miss Lucie the . left aisle. A handsome arch was sus pendeded of each side of the rostrum, and the respective couples took post tion under these while the pastor, the t Rev. J. loward Carpenter, oflicially tied the silken cord which legally bound them in life-long union. After the benediction the four who had been reducel'to two retired in reverso order, and with a'few friends. repaired to Dr. Boyd's home,, where an elegant sup per'was served and a most pleasant 1 evonjng. spent. Many valuable and - b4auliful presents 'rwere received by t the brides, and hundrede of hearts i'e jdiced in their bright'futuro.

I haye been engaged in it, and perhaps can give some information. We have a cannery at Houston-my home in Delaware. We can peas, strawber ries, raspberries, blackboirrles, sweet corn ; of huckieborries, we ;have put r up 1,600 cans in one day ; of tomatoes, 22,000 cans ,in a day. We also cami peachies extensively. The estimated Sannual requirement of cans of to Smatons in the United'-States is about 00,000,000. The "tomatoe pack" of 1882 amounted to 55,000,000, of '88 a and '84 at about the same. In '85 it t dropped ,down to 88,000,000. In '80 B it rose to 67,000,000. The price of cans in 1877 was $1.70 per dozen, in S'85, 75 cots; in '86, 90 cents. We pay fo?tomatoeg $6, $7, and $8 per cwt. S15 to 20 cents per bushel. As I am about to leave the State, It a gives me great pleasure to see the fair r promise of crops after so many years of failures, as well as the gradual re ,vival of business in the whole country. There are many. persons In South Carolina towards .whom I have a i kindly feeling, who have done much g in the past eighteen years to lesson I the difficulties of a "trying position," y and should they visit mo at my home r in Delaware they would meet a very e. cdrd[al welcome, and I will showv them as nice farms containing from 100 to ; 600 acres as can be found in most any - part of the country. We have in Delaware the advanitage I of fruit raising, as our crops are now t reliable,' and we have New York, * Philadelphia, Baltimore and Boston I for markets. In other, respects South a Carolina stands No. 1. In educational I advantages I find few places eqtial to a good old Winnsboro, which has held a up a beacon light for over a ceaftury. B May coming deriturles feel its Itiflunce for good as in the past. W. RrounRsON. BarretV* Imperial (CoIQgne . t Cannot be surpassed for Fragrance, ele gance and durabillity.

I don't recollect a more favorable spring for preparing land for the reception of seed. Cotton ' i resents a vigorous color, and stands complete. In early planted corn, and on bottom corn, the bud worm has depleted the starid on the latter, and cold weather the former. Planters are well up with their c1Jops. Most of the cotton has been chopped out. Wheat promises an average crop, now rearly matured. Oats are short in statue, but we hope the late rains will so improve them that nearly an average crop may be produced. Gar dens, though late, are looking well. Upon the whole crop prospects are quite favorable up to this date. I think we need not fear high freshets or even low ones this summer, as I do not recollect two consecutive annual freshets in summer, except the August freshets of 1852 and '53. Corn Is looking well, and a larger area planted in this section than for many years past. Farmers are hopeful as to a good crop the present year, and It is pleas ant to notice their smile in recount ing the present 'prospects generally. So I am encouraged in the fond antic ipation that the citizens of our county, if a fair crop is produced, will publish my "Reminiscences of Fairfield" by all subscribing to it. . We think -of sending out an agent soon to eanvaes our county for subscribers to tlie work. Old Fairfield possesses too much patriotism to let this important work fall of publishing, now that it is nearly completed for the press, pro vided we produce. a fair .crop th present year. The fature respecl are brightening for the SouL a .if ,blanters ate able to build tar d and cotton mills, surely they canbny a history for a mere pittance to inform them and their posterity 'as to iho their ancestors were, whether: gen. erals, governors, statesmen, farmers, mechanics, lawyers, doctors or preach: ers of the Gospel. If they were eveun honest and useful citizens, it would afford them pleasure to hnve t~er memories transmitted to later a'es. They would also wish to know inci dents of history relative to the early settlement, etc., etc., of their county. We wvill await the Issue and see. W. B. P. S.-We were blessed with rains yesterday, and farmers busily engae this morning setting out potato sl, of which there seems to be a plentit i crop and of vigorous growth. I Sm ple,ased to notioe th)at farmers are ap preciating the potato crop of late years. , w. Em Lyles's Ford, 21 May, 1887. In the spring Tiune,Gentle Annie the young man's ideas naturally turn to things or love. Bu, gentle Annie, with our changeable climate the bile soon be.s gins to accumulate, and where love was what made the young man happy before, it takes H. II.
