The gentle rains of Monday night were a source of rejoicing to the farmers. Oats and plows are already in demand. The dry, dusty weather which has, for some time, been such a source of annoy ance to our dry goods clerks, is a thing of the past. Last Sunday night the public services of the Y. M. C. A., led by Prof. A. S. Scheetz, were of a very interest;g and edifying character, and were well attended. Sales of cotton for the week ending Oct. 16th, are 7(j9 bales, against 4G2 last wcek. Total to date, 3,700 bales. Price to-day, 8 -8.S0. The sales of cotton for the week just past were heavier than any previous week, in the history of the town. A hot supper- -Oyster supper, etc., will be served in the Academy building on Friday night, the 21st inst. The proceeds of which will be donated to the Musical Department of the Academy. The ladies are managing this affair, and of course it will succeed. They desire every body to come and bring some one with them. To-day, Wednesday, Dr. John 31. Sease, of Edgefield, ceases to travel life's journey alone. By some manipulaion of facts, by no means strange, he has succeeded in inducing Niss Maggie Monts to sease from :[onts, and they have formed a life co partnership under the firm name of Dr. & Mrs. J.

Will Ruff. colored, forcibly entered the house of Maria Thompson, colored, on Luther Fellers' place one day last week and stole, therefrom, one pair boots, one pair pants, coat, vest and shirt, all"belong iag to Smily Jackson, colored. The thief reached Columbia, where he was arrested by Chief Ratcliff. He was brought before Judge Boozer yesterday. He waived a preliminary hearing, and was committed to jail in default of a S-00. bond. The boots were recovered-the clothing was on his person. An accident, wh;ch came near being fa tal, befell Miss Corrie Miller, daughter of A. H. Miller, on Sunday morning last. Miss Corrie intended pouring a glass of domestic wiae from a jug, for her grand father, and thece were several jugs in the pantry, and on p)ouring it out, she saw that the liquid did not .look like wine. She thought she had mistaken the vinegar jug for the wine, and proceeded to test it by taking a sup, which proved to be con centrated lye in solution. The immediate effects were terrifie. She suffered excru ciating pains in her mouth, throat and stomach. Emetics were promptly ad mnistered, which had the desired effect, and saved the young lady's life. She is now doing reasonably weil, and is thought to be out of danger. Fifteen years ago, there were shipped from this plaice about from 2,500 to 3,000 bales of cotton- now, we ship from 6,000 to 7,000 bales.

Eight years ago, there was not a brick store in town -now, there are six. Five years ago, there were two churches in town-now, there are four. Three years ago, there was one boarding house here now, we have two hotels. One year ago, we had a rack of a depot here-now, we have the most beautiful one on the lirne of the C. & G. railroad. The patrons of Locust Grove Academy held a meeting on last Saturday, and after an expression of opinion in regard to teachers. .during which lady teachers were pretty severely criticized by some of the patrons, proceeded to the elect: n of a boadl of Trustees, wbich resulted in the choice of Messrs. N. B. Wheeler, G. A. Long and B3. H. Miller. These gentle men then elected a teac'her, Mr. Drayton Smith, of Lexington County. Mr. Smith comes highly recaommended, and hears a teacher's first grade certificate. There were three lady-applicants, but from the tone of some of the patrons, it will be useless for a lady to ever make applica tion for th9s school. We are glad that there are only a few p)ersons who enter taei such narrow and contracted s. ews, and that the majority recognize the high meit, worth and refn2g influences which are exerted by our noble young ladies in the dissemintion of knowledge among our sons and daughters..

The colored Baptist Association, Geth semane, riet in Newberry yesterday morning. About one hundred and fifty delegates came in yesterday and Tues day, and more are expected. They rep resent 77 churches, located in Chester, Fairfield, York, Lexington, Richland, Newberry, and possibly some other counties. Rev. O. S. Ford, of Winns- i boro, was chairman of the association. A sermon was preached in the Baptist church on Tuesday night by Rev. M. P. Hall. On yesterd:y morning the body was so large that it was determined to di vide it into two associations. This was done, and York and Chester Counties, comprising 29 churches and their dele gates, was formed into a new associa tion, with Rev. W. M. Alexander, of Rock Hill, as chairman. The new asso ciation had nut been named yesterday afternoon. Its first session was held yesterday afternoon in the colored Pres byterian church.

NEW YORK, October 18.-The French steamship Britannia, which arrived here on the 13th instant from Marseilles and Naplcs, and has been held by the health officers at the upper quarantine for ob servation, was this morning sent down to the lower quaran tine, four cases of cholera having been found aboard of her. The Britannia is a sister ship to the Ale sia, which brought the cholera here some weeks ago. LATER. Health Officer Smith told a reporter this afternoon that there was no cholera aboard the Britannia. He caused her removal to the lower quarantine station this morning because friends of the pas sengers on board were- flocking about trying to get them ashore. On the other hand, boatmen who earn a livingabout the upper quarantine say that four cases of cholera have developed aboard the Britannia. They hint that Smith is try ing to keep the facts from the press and -public. IEnvelopes, En'velopes, Envelopes. Twenty thousand Envelopes just re ceived at HUNT's BOOK STORE. tf. EXCELSIOR NOTES.

A great many of the people in this section contemplate attending the State Fair in Columbia which commences the 8th of November. We hope all who at tend will enjoy a pleasant and profitable occasion. The farmers have had an exception of a fall for gathering in their crops. We heard one of our farmers say a few days ago that he had his crib full of corn, his cotton house full of peas and no place to put his cotton. Poor fellow. Yet he is well biessed. Mr. T. L. Wheeler made up some fine molasses last week from his own rais ing. We are glad to see that our farm era haven't given up entirely to raising the fleecy staple but are determined to raise some of their own supplies at home. We have been informed that Messrs. A. M.

A DAU,HTER OF T1IE SOUTH. Fatal Accident to Mrs. Clara E. Tyler. RICHMoND, October 18.-Some time ago Mrs. Clara E. Tyler, of 4,710 Girard avenue, Philadelphia, wrote to Governor Lee that she desired to make a contribu tion- to the monument to be erected here to the memory of Geni. R. E. Lee. To-day tbe Governor received a letter from her sister, stating that on the oc casion of the Governor's visit to Phila delphia during the recent celebration, Mrs. Tyler left her home taking with her considerable money. In attempting to cross a street to reach Governor Lee, who was passing in the parade, the lady was knocked down by a passing vehicle. She was removed to a hospital, where she soon afterwvards died. Ini her dying moments Mrs. Tyler softly murmured, "I must pass to see Governor Lee." This she several times repeated. Her friends could not under stand what she meant by her strange request, but the mystery was fully ex plaindd.to them by Governor Lee. He wrote to Mrs. Tyler's sister to-day stat ing that he had been in correspondence with the deceased in regard to the con tribution to the monument, and this wili explain to her, perhaps what prompted the dying words of her noble sister, who lost her life while attempt ing to see Governor Lee to hand him money to assist in erecting a monument to commemorate the deeds.and the vir tues of her husband's old commander. It was known that Mrs. Tyler had a large roll of money when she left home, because her sister asked, "why are you taking so much money with you?" Her rceply was, "It is to pay a debt of hon or." She never lived to pay "the debt" as she termed it' but her memory will ever live.
