Want Better Itoads.
The farmers along the New
Cut road for within several
miles of Lancaster are beginning
to feel the necessity of
better roads. Many of them yet
have their fertilizers to haul,
and to haul them over muddy,
marshy roads does not pay by
a good deal. Those of the farmers
who are in a position to help,
have decided to unite and make
pome improvement in the road
and are now busily engaged in
hauling rock for that purpose
The chaingang force, we under
stand, is soon to tie removed t<
that sec hop of the road, and,
with this assistance, the certm nty
of a good road may be predicted
Cotton fire at fan Jfj/ck.
Van Wyek lias had another (ire.
It was a cotton lire litis time and
was started by a spark from a
passfng train. The cotton was on
the railroad platform and belong
ed to a Rock Hill man who had
recently bought about 10(1 bales
from Mr. 1?. B. Mobley. Only
about 12 bales were burned and
thai wa> not.completely destroyed
The prompt action of the citizens
in removing the couOn saved ti
much greater loss.

of 8chuylorrilIe, N. Y., who served In
Company B, 5th Vermont Volunteer*, had
other foes to buttle with after his return
from the late war. He recently wrote:
"I have used Dr. Miles' Restorative
Nervine for nervousness brought on by
the use of tobacco and too close applica,
tion to business. It gave me prompt ^
relief without leaving any unpleasant
effects. The result was beneficial and
i lasting. I heartily endorse it."

Death of Mr. J amen M. liar ton.
On Monday evening last Mr. ^
James M. Barton, one of the most ^
aged and respected citizens of the n"
Rum creek section of the county,
passed away. He had been con- a
fined to his room for quite a while
?in fact, for more than four years.
He had been unable to do anything,
not even to look after the ?
interest of his farm. He leaves
several daughters, who tenderly
watched over him, ministering to V
his every want and comfort until ^
1 the end came; also two sons, and
t a number of grandchildren who ^
i survive and join in with the imme ^
- diate family in this their hourol ^
sorrow and sadness. "Peace to his r
? L
ashes." _
? n
Speaking further of Mr. Barton, C(
' it may be said that he followed
the example of his foreparents, in
that he passsed his life in peace- J
able and quiet possession of the I
estate on which he resided, and in "
sight of the plot of ground on
which the old family residence p
stood, marking the spot where he n,
V>'
i was horn, and first, saw the light
ol day. He was in his 85th year, q
His remains were laid to rest on
yesterday in the family plot at ^
i Douglas cemetery,
i We were about to omit the fact
that at the breaking out of the
. civil war, his eldest son, William, P
a bright and noble type of young ^
manhood, answered the call of C
his State for volunteers, and tl
together with others from his \
immediate neighborhood prompt- c
ly responded to the first notes
of tne bugle and bid adieu to the
dear old home, and march to
Virginia where, in some of the
great conflicts, battling for the
cause of the Confederacy, he laid \
down his life, a willing sacrifice (\
upon the altar of his country. p
