J. 3. DAVIS The retiring colonel of Richland regiment is a splendid old gentleman, Col. Jno. B. Davis of Killiaas. Being 72 years of age and quite inirm, he was compelled to give up the office, although he loves the regiment well, and will still hold allegiance. At the outbreak of the war between the States he was elected captain of Company I, First regiment South Carolina volunteers, Col. Gregg. This regiment enlisted for six months, State service, and remained around Charleston until the fall of sumter and then went to. Virginia to serve opt the balance of tue six months. At the end of that time the regiment was disbanded. Capt. Davis then, in three weeks, raised a company for the Fifteenth South Carolina, Col. De Sanssure, assigned to Drayton's bri gade. This brigade was engaged at Boonesbero and Sharpsbrurg under Gen. Drayton, and was then trans ferred ro Kershaw's brigade. Pickett's charge was no more glorious than that of Kershaw at Snodgrass Hill, Chicka mauga. In that battle Capt. Davis distinguished himself for gallantry. Again at Knoxville his bravery was conspicuous, and Gen. Kershaw made him colonel of the regiment, pro moting him over the lieutenant colonel and major, "for valor and skill on the battleleld " Col. Davis is a West Pointer, and this training added effiiency to his gallantry and courage. But the in Irmity of years has come upon him, and he thought it best to leave the command of the regiment of survivors to younger men,-The State. REBEL ROLLS OF 1775.

CASTORIA For Infants and Children. The KlId You Hane Always Bought FE"TAVILL TEmS. There was a good deal of wind and rain on Saturday night the 18th inst. There has been very little work done en the farms. Small grain is looking very well. Mrs. Sarah Gladden. of Shelton, is visit' g relatives in this sention. 'Ar. J. W. Gibson has moved back fr4m Chester. Mr. Willikm Weir, Sr., and ME. John Varnadore have both been quite sick. We wish them a speedy recovery. Mr. David Taylor, of the Crosby ville section, has been suffering with raema.ism. We hope he will soon be up again. Mr. Taylor is one of our mist enterprising farmers. Last year he made fourteen bales of cotton, averaging 500 pounds each, on four teen acreq of land. He used a ton of acid and one hundred bushels of cot ton seed on about ten acres of the land and about one-half ton of guano on the other part. The crop above men tioned was cultivated by Mr. Cameron (whose given name I do not remem ber). Both Messrs. Taylor and Cam eroz deserve credit for their successful farming. It demonstrates that the white people of this country can, by perseverance and industry, make farming remanerative. In my opinion thote who can, like Mr. Taylor, make the & reatest yield with the least ex pense are the best farmers. S.,uie of our farmers have been hauling guano. Some use Gibbs' high grade, They say it's the best guano that's made; It will make your cotton grow tall, And insures a good yield next fall. Gibbs'hgh grade guano Is a little like Mark A. Hanna; It gives the cotton a good start, And cheers the workingman's heart. In politics Mark's quick on the start, And sow,e thinks he's mighty smart; He'll shake hands and say, "Howdy do," But next fall he'll meet his Waterloo. The negro, the male and guano just suits, With them the merchant has gone into caboot; They will give him a lien and say next fall, "Come on, boys, to me you owe it all." The lien law has almost lived Its day, And we hope it will soon pass away; I was unwire in its origin, But the Legislature would not call it in. Robt. R. Jefiares. March 20, 1899.
