An Accomplished Correspondent of The News und Courier to Write tho Article. Mr. J. E. Norment will be in Lau rens in a few days to write up the' city for the News and Courier. Mr. Norment is one of the most ac complished correspondents In the South and his articlos about various ?.owns in South Carolina have been very valuable to thorn*. Tho Laurens artlole will be illus trated handsomely and fully. At this juncture when Laurens is undergoing a great business revival her people should take advantage of this opportunity and advertisers ought to doal liberally with Mr. Norment and the News and Courier. Ten thousand copies at the least of the Issue containing the article should be subscribed for in Lauren6. Tho editor of this paper had the for tune to pass through fifteen miles of Laurens territory in a private convey ance during last week. The route lay along the old Greenville road to Capt. Shells and thence up tho Ralbon, and over the hills as far as Dials church.? The crops on tho entire way are fair to good oxcept on sandy rldgo lands where they are light. The corn is un iformly good aud the land groaning with peas ripo for tho sickle. The pea crop is a wonder. The fields are snowy with cotton, and the far mors say thoy can't stop to tri He with peas and nine cents cotton hanging from tho bolls? Wo observed particularly the crops of Mr. James Bolt, Hugh Wallace, Glenn Fuller, Capt. John Switzer, David Har ris, Piorce Hellams, Taylor Campbell, John Heliums, .Esq., and many oth ers. It was tho 10th of October, but tho orchard of Mr. James Bolt, with a half dozen trees loaded with beauti ful peaches, and tho eloquence of our road companions, L. G. B & W. H. B. was too much for our integrity and a syndicate was formed to raid the pro serves; but fortuately the hospitable proprietor was at home, and with bin assistance we returned with overflow ing baskots. We found many of these industrious whole soulded farmers look ing after their sorghum and every man with his hand to the plow. They are a happy, independent, intelligent, thriving people. Wo were about to for get to mention that the twenty acre cotton Hold of Hugh Wallace on the road side Is tho talk and admiration of all beholders. Tho more we see of our people at their own hospitable homes tho loss we are inclined towards tho now county Idea and our Abbeville and Spartanburg nolghbors might as well resign all hops' LONG BRANCH.

Johnston has rented out his farm for live years and will move to Clinton and we don't know how we will do without Cannon. Supervisor Adair is having needed work in tho way of building done by the county convicts, which wo think is wisdom on his part and proves that he is the right man in tho right place. It seems that brave, brainy Ben Till man has to pop his whip pretty often to got tho wholo convention to say "Aye." But after getting a long broatb for the next ton days may be ho can manage thorn better. Mr. Jessie Puller sustained considera ble loss the other day by getting a bale of cotton on lire at E. M.

Dr. Blue Mountain Joe gave a bono ilt to tho Laurons Band, In tho Opora House, on Friday evening. Tho result was a very nice purse for tho Band.

I). G a Is lington's was found to be on lire inside. The house wa*> filled with lint cotton. With prompt, assistance from town the fire w?3 put out and but comparatively little stir was made ovor the matter. The origin of tho fire Is unknown. The business men and morchants of tho town havo an organization and will have a cotton buyor on tho markot hereafter. Thoy aro not anxious to buy cotton, but they aro dotorminod to do their host to secure a square market for our chief staple and do all they can to keep tho scales rlghty adjusted.? Besides, competition is the life of trado and the more tho merrier. There was an unpleasant condition of the cotton market for a few hours on Saturday, with no buyers and more than a hundred bales on tho markot. There was some hitch about tho scales and the weighing. Soon, howover, the deadlock was broken and tho market went on in its oven tonor. Wo trust that there will be no furthor hitch as our buyers aro a liberal sot of gentle men and we know that our cotton rais ers want nothing moro than tho worth of their products and bosides must largely trust to the good faith of tho buyers and weighers. Wo aro au thorized to state furthor that tho buy ers aro porfoctly satisfied with the scales. John William Yoargln, a prominent farmer died at his home noar Gray Court in this county on Wodnosday morning last. While ongaged in a well some weeks ago a dislodged stono foil upon his hoad and although tho injnry was sovoro, his friends hopofully ex pected an oarly recovery from tho In jury.

All commond him to the people of Sennca and wish for him success in his new field.?Green vlllo Now8. What is said hero of Dr. Martin is eminently true.

THE SOUTHERN CO.'S EXPOSITION WORK. Atlanta, ua,, Sept. 20. Editor Manufacturers Record: Tho Southern Railway has erect ed, doubtless, -the most classical building on the exposition grounds. It is a most beautiful and symmet rical production throughout, and In its pure white daintiness resembles a gem of most brilliant appearance and chaste design. Its gilded dome is surmounted by a heroic si/.o fe male figure representing modern railway progress. Its Interior contains a bureau of information under the auspices of the passenger department, and a similiar bureau under the auspices of tho land and immigration de partment, and also contains an ex hibit of rare and costly selection of tho finest gems of tho South. The building is set forth ns an example of tho best production of the architect, Mr. Bradford L. Gilbert, and it was constructed un der tho supervision of tho man agement of the Southern Railway Com puny. Even more than the Pennsyl vania Rail toad was to the Centen nial Exposition at Philadelphia, and the Illinois Central Rail road was to the World's Fair, the South ern Railway is to the Cotton Slates and International Exposition at Atlanta. This great system reaches Atlanta from all four points of the compass, stretching ' o%t its im mense arms to the Potomac at Washington, ami the Ohio River gateways at. Cincinnati, Louisville, St. liouis, Memphis, Vicksburg and New Orleans, and reaching down into the interior of Florida and penetrating in a network the en tire Southern States, it brings di rectly into tho gates of Atlanta trade and travel from all quarters of the globe. The Southern Railway being the only line of transportation enter ing tho exposition grounds, it has undertaken to proudly assert its re cognition of this great responsibil ty, and lias provided the most am ple and accommodating terminal facilities, both at Lloyd Street Sta tion , adjoining the Markharn House, and Immediately opposite the Union Depot in t Ii im city, and also at the grounds of the exposi tion itself. The Southern Railway has ar ranged a system ol quick train ser vice between the eity and the grounds such as the South has never witnessed. These trains are arranged so as to be run within three minutes of-eaeh other, and afford a total carrying capacity of 20,000 an hour in each direction, or a total movement in one hour of 10,000 people should necessities re quire. Vice President Baldwin has im bued his entire staff of .subordinates with a spirit of energy and enter prise in this undertaking that is bound to make it the most success ful of tho kind ever known. The passenger department of tho Southern Railway has issued extensive and beautiful advertis ing matter of original and effective sort, and has participated very largely in the effort so successfully resulting In arranging tho lowest rates upon the most liberal basis for the Atlanta Exposition ever af forded any Exposition of this kind in tho world. The frieght department has lent similiar aid and enterprise in pro viding for tho movement of tho exhibits, and indeed the watchword throughout tho entire Southern Railway system seems to be "Tho Atlanta Exposition must be an ovorwhlltning success." The transportation department of the southern Railway is doubtless as well officered as any railway in I he United States. Most ample and extensive train service has been arranged by the transportation de partment to bring everybody from everywhere to Atlanta on this great occasion. I. W. AvERY.
