The Golden Sheaves of their Wedding Day. The sweet chimes of wedding belle were again beard last Wednesday night, on which happy occasion iMr. Silas Jobnstone McCaughrin led his fair fiance, Miss Ione Elise Fant, to the altar at Aveleigh Presbyterian eburcb, attended by a charming company of ten lovely bridesuiaids and gallant groonismen. All that busy fingers could do with ferns, forest leaves and the beautiful Chrysanthemum was done to make the sacred sanctuary radiant with refined beauty and exquisite taste. It was an enchanting scene and in perfect keep ing with its solemnity; for it was at Cana of Galilee that a nuptial ceremo ny was celebrated in the sunsbine of the Saviour's presence. Mrs. S. B. Jones rendered Mendels sohn's wedding march with fine effect as the bridal party walked up the aisles under a canopy of tinted leaves. It was preceded by two winsome little flower girls-Maude Fant and Nannie Mc Caughrin-who openea the chancel's floral gate for those who were to ratify their plighted vows in the pres ence of their friends and in the sightof heaven! The bride and groom were at their best and were the central figures of a handsome picture. The bride wore a superbly-fitting white faille silk, prin cess style, en traine, and trimmed % ith lace. Orange blossoms, the veil and ornaments of diamonds lent additional effect to her tasteful attire. Rev. Dr. Cozby united them in a very solemn and impressive manner. The beautiful and holy rite was made all the more touching by the use of the ring-the symbol of a union of hearts forever! The bridesmaids wore white gloves and held bouquets of white chrysan themums. The bride was the eldest daughter of the late Dr. and Mrs. S. F. Fant nee Lyles. The groom is the eldest son of our townsman,Mr. Robert L. McCaugh rin. Receptions were given the bridal party and their guests respectively by the mother of the bride and the father of the groom. The following were the bridesmaids and grooinsmen: Miss Mallie Wheeler, white China silk, diamond ornaments. Mr. Z. F. Wright. Miss Annie Bynum, cream China silk, lace trimmings and diamonds. Mr. Wm. A. McFall. Miss Lizzie Glenn, cream albatross ribbons, with rubies and pearl orna ments. Mr. Win. A. Fant. Miss Mary Burton, with brocaded silk, diamonds. Dr. James H. McIn tosh.

The General Assembly of South Car olsna has convened for the year of Grhace, 1891, and we hope that its delib erations may be those of a wise, dis :reet and conservative body of law makers. Like the making of books, there is likewise no end to the making of laws. In our humble opinion it is not so much ,vhat may be done or un :lone, as what may not be done. We have too many laws. A multitude are :iead letters upon the statutes to all in ents and purposes. A few good laws, well digested and properly enforced are much better than many laws that go by default. We re member to have heard that at a ses ion of a legislature at one time, two laws were passed that were opposed to each other. Apart from buncombe speeches and tnwise enactments, there are many things of importance to be done, changed or renewed in the progressive life of a State, so that legislators and their constituents need not be disturbed Ibouj much talking. This does not always show strength or good taste. Mineral Water.

Miss Birdie Kibler spent a week with relatives in and near the Capital, and returned the following Tuesday. Most of our farmers have almost fin ised gathering their cotton. The crop, howvever, is sonmewhat short. Mr. Irenius Epting is erecting a resi dence about a mile from St. Paul's church. He hopes to be able to occupy it by Christmas. We had heavy frosts on last Wed nes day and Thursday mornings. The weather was the coldest we have yet had this fall. C. Nov. 21st, 1891. -.-Latest U. S. Gov't Report Rowder ELY PURE PROSPKRITY NO &.S. Thankegiving-Hog KiIng Time-Christ inas and Things Generally. PRoSPERITY, -November 24.-A. G. Wise has gone to Tennessee to purcha-e a lot of hogs for bacon purposes. The cotton crop is nearly all liar vested, and the bulk sold. Quite a large quantity of wheat and oats is being sown. An increase in the cereals and a corresponding decrease in the acreage of cotton is Lhe salvation of this country. If a plan of this charac ter were fully carried out by all the farmers of the cotton growing States, it would then make little ditfrence to this section of the country, whether we have unlimited free -coinage of silver and sub-treasuries or not. 13ut so long as our people plant all cot ton to buy every thing else with, and buy commer cial fertilizer with w hich to raise cot ton, so long will ruiu and bankrupty s?are us in th face, and all the free coinage of silver and gold if you please, and the establishment of thousands of sub-treasuries all over the United States of America, will avail us but little. The inevitable is sure. Thanksgiving day will be properly observed in town next Thursday. Rev. J. B. Traywick wil, conduct services in the A. R. P. church, and in the Luth eran church Revs. W. A. Julian and T. 0. Keister will deliver addresses. Usually, Thanksgiving services have been of a union character here, i e., all uniting in one service, but now there will be services in two of the four churches here. Whether it is thought that one church would not accommo date all who desire to attend is not. known to this correspondent. Under the efficient management of Prof. E. 0. Counts, assisted by Miss Bessie Wheeler, the Pros-perity High School is in a flourishing condition. With teachers of such a high standard of eruditional qualifications and moral character combined, there seems to be no necessity for parents to send their sons and daughters off to expensive boarding schools to acquire an educa tion for the useful walks and vocations of life. The means are here in our midst. For the be-efit of the traveling pub lic and tile Laurensville Herald par ticularly, the following information is freely given: The "cannon-ball" train stops here twenty minutes for supper. The arrangement is good. The con ductor on the Greenville train tele graphs from Goldville the number of suppers wanted on his train, and at the same time the conductor on the Anderson train telegraphs the number on his train who wish supper. These sappers are then prepared, and when the train blows "the signal" for Pros perity the suppers are placed upon the table-the train stops-the passengers walk right into the dining-room and partake of a good, warm, substantial supper for twenty minutes, and then away they all go perfectly happy and serene. Who could desire a better arrangement? The Sunday-school of Grace Church is preparing a beautiful service for Christmas, The school is also to have a Christmas tree, and then everybody connected therewith will be happy and serene. The Prosperity Canning Company could not reasonably have expected to get a premium for their splendid ex bibit of canned goods when they were contending with ladies. Chivalry alone, would nave influenced the committee to award the prize to the ladies. I never bet on a horse race but once in miy life, and that was betting on a lady driving two horses against a man driving a similar outfit. I knew abso lutely nothing whatever of the woman, man or horses, but I simply bet on the lady because she was a lady, believing that if the fellow had a particle of chivalry about him he would allow the woman to beat the race. I was correct in my judgment-I won. Gentlemen, if you want to win, don't bet against the ladies, unless a.committee of ladies are to decide. Then the odds are in your favor. I'll bet on the ladies every Fresh Norfolk Oysters and Meals at all hours at my Restaurant. tf JAS. DUNBAR, Agt. A saxon Right.

Miss Cora Dominick hA.s again opned her school at St. Paul's academy and Miss Lillie Weri.s the school at Ridge road academy.

TRIED TO BURN LAURENS. Startlin= Attempts of a Mysterious Ince diary-The Alliance Warehouse Set Afire-A Stable -the Next. [Specia1 to the ;reenville News,1 LAUHNS, S. C., Nov. 23.-The min diabolical incendiarisni occurred he to-night. At 7.4.5 p. ni. an atten was imade to fire the warehouse Hud.Enq & Garrison, containing sev ral hundred bales of cotton. Lint cc ton saturated with kerosene w: stuffed into the keyhole of an out, door. In the inside, bales of cottc were against the door, and the comm1 nication of the flames would have beE an easy matter. Luckily, a color( employee detected the incendiary i the act and gave the alarm. R. I Hudgens, one of the owners, fired him, but he escaped. The ware hou is surrounded on three sides by a pla form banked with cotton bales. It located on the rear of Harper stree wes' of the R. & D. and south of Rol ert-n's hotel, one hundred and twent] five yards from the public square. Now comes the startling part of th devilism. At 9 o'clock there was general alarm and fire was discovere coming from the roof of L. & A. Kol pel's frame stable, located to the rei of G,ay & Sullivan's store in the ang] of Main and Harper streets, 15) yard from the ware house. The flames wei very soon beyond control, and tb stable was totally destroyed. LoE about $800; the insurance, if any, ca not be ascertained at this hour. Tb burned stable is in the center of group of frame and brick buildings an if the fire ha. not been promptl checked the disaster would have bee; fearful. Of course great excitement prevail as it looks like a systematic attemi: had been made to destroy the town. Hudgens& Garrison are the weigher Hudgens and a negro each saw the al tempt to fire the ware house, but tb fellow got away in the darkness. Ther were 600 bales of cotton on the plal form. The number in the house i considerable. The events of to-night lead to th theory that the attempt to fire the col ton on the platform Sunday mornin was of incendiary origin, and not acc dental, as at first reported. The amateur fire department rer dered substantial service in protectin homes surrounding the Koppel stabl< rhe stock in the stable was saved wit difficulty.
