The day was pleasant, just a little warm, but the clouds would hide the sur occasionally as if trying to do an acl of kindness. We reached the grounds jast as :he company was forming and preceded them to the field where the inspection was to be held. The fence enclosing the grounds - was lined with vehicles, whose occupants were waiting the arrival of the soldier boys who soot made their appearance. Without any preliminary Gen. 'Watts issued the order to Capt. T. M. Jordan: "Pre pare your company for inspection.' The company was rrepared for inspec tion in short order, each gun and ac coutrement being closely inspected, It was evident that this was a clean record, as the Inspector General had no remarks to make as he tossed the piece back to the man. After passing a most 'creditable in spection, Capt. Jordan gave an exhibi tion drill, which did credit to him self and his men; both deserve the credit, for without a commanding officer there .in be no discipline, and without zealous members the officer can do nothing toward perfecting the men in tactics. The drilling was bet ter than our reporter expected to see it as the members are scattered far apart and the work season being backward has prevented drilling this spring. At the conclusion of the drill Gen. Watts spoke in very commendable terms of the manner in which the company deports itself on the field; he complimented the company on baving o thorough a captain and officers, and paid them a tribute for their soldierly bearing toward their officers. He said they were second to none of the newly rganized companies and would not be afraid to see them drill along side f the older companies of the State. rhey were a great credit, he said, to the cunnty and to the State. We watched Gen. Watts in his re marks and feel sure that he did not at.er more praise than was due. The leld movements were indeed well mecuted. The company and platoon wheels were executed splendidly. rhere is a wide difference between heeling on a plank floor and on a ough, unevea field. The Fairneid Rifle Guards are a fnc dized body of men and present a hand. ome appearance. The march was then taken up to the hen most favored resort of the day he hash pot. We went along, jnst ~oing, of course, to be with the crowd. We saw two familiar faces, Mr. young Robertson and Mr. Charley Broom. We knew this was a guar ntee of good hash. When it comes ;o catfish soup or hash these two men are in it." The table was soon covered with the !aiiar hash tray, which was invented y the man who knew his business, md the baskets were emptied of their :ontents. The blessing was asked by Rev. J. M. McNaull and the charge was ordered. Hash ,and light bread, ham, chicken, rice, biscuits, cake, nstard and pies all disappeared lik-e ak leaves in a cyclone. The soldiers arged the fight onward; they were extremely courteous and kept the army :f eaters well supplied with amunition. he reporter fought the enemy nibly, he devoured each new one coming in his presence, until he himself was atisfied with his own work at least. The next charge was made on the well of Mr. D. H. Stevenson. It was oon swept to the bottom. A trace hain was added, but no water. To elp eat all the good things on the able and drink the well dry was more iow than our reporter could endure, to he gathered his brood and hied iomeward, feeling fully repaid for i very pleasant trip to the inspection. * * * General Watts was driven to Adlger's :y Capt. T. M. Jordan and took the rain for Chester where he will inspect :he military of that county. We learned that it is not likely that :he Fairfield Light Draigoons will ke p w their organization. There we-re a goodly numb:r of isitors present at the inspectio., but aot as many a- were there last year. "Tieey say" that Mi s. Jason Pope and the prettiest baby at the picnic on uesday.

Several days ago Mr. Davis, who i soliciting agent for the Southern Rail way Company, was here and remarkei to our reporter that the bome-raise corn and bacon had cu: off the ship ping of their road considerably; tha the road was feeling the effect of it ver: decidedly. In pursuance of this viev we asked several of our lien mer chants for their views on this mtter and they agree with Mr. Davis. On merchant says his corn sales will fal off about 40 per cent and baton sale will tall off largely. Thie is a hopeful sign. If cur peo ple would only make corn and bacoi enough to keep their places supplie< there would be a marked change i affairs in this county. They are im proving in this respect no doubt. Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria RALPH BINGHAM. Ralph Bingham, the boy orator, en tertained his listeners at the Cour House on Monday night to a highl] satisfactory degree. At times yet could almost hear a pin drop and in i few minutes the whole house would bi convulsed with laughter. He ren. dered the famous Jim Bludsoe wit teiling effect. His performance on thq violli was very fine indeed. Th re is not a phase of character ir lift: % ich he did not depict as real a life itself. The old man who likec cider was represented so truly that I was hard to believe the young voic of Bingham. His mimicing the firal ride of two negro women on an excur sign train was ludicrous in the ex treme. The audience was highly please and we will see a full house whenevei Ralph Bingham is billed for Winuns boro again. It.May Do as Much for You. Mr. Fred Miller, of Irving, Ill., write, that he had a Severe Kidney trouble foi many years, with severe pains in his back and also that his bladder was affected. H( triel many s)-called Kidney cures bu1 without any good result. About a yeai ago he began the use of Electric Bitter. and found relief at once.

The company has done a very good busi ness despite the low prices of the products. They have yet to work uj about 250 tons of seed. Since the opening of the season they will have worked up 2,50 ton of seed. The output of meal wil reach 800 tons, 1,100 tons of hulls 90,000 gallons of oil and 90 bales of linters. They have sold 1,633 barrel of oil and all the hulls except whai will be made in the coming two week's run. The ginnery has ginned about 1,000 bales of cotton. The company has handled about 25C head of cattle, have sold down te about 100 head.
