The attendance on Sunday excited the wonder of the people in "The Nation," and a gentleman took a census of ev erything that passed his house going to the meeting. He counted them for three hours, and for two hours the passers averaged t wo a minute. In three hours there were 17 on foot, 47 on horseback, 121 in buggies, 139 in two-horse wagons, and 81 in one-horse wagons. The number of vehicles were: Bug gies and carts, 57; two-horse wagons, 27; one-horse wagons, 23; mules and horses, 181. This was only on one road-that leading from Longshore's store. Thbere were three other roads leading to the church, and the preachers say there were 3,000 people present altogether, with 1,100 vehicles by actual count. One remarkable feature of the gath - ering was that there was not a dozen children in the multitude that passed the Longshore road. Buist's New Crop For Sale Cheap Robertson & Gilder's Drug Store.

A fittle strange to say, Mr. Editor, we have attended two barbeties and eard no speaking-no polities dis :ussed except a little dispensary talk. Died, on Sunday, the 16th instant, ittle Willie Rteder, the five-mouths >ld child of Mc. M. M. Long. Little Willie was left a motherless babe when nly a few weeks old, but by the kind treatment and tender care of a father and sisters it bad grown to be quite an aflectionate and bright babe. But God in his infinite merey, who always knows best, has called it h4i- with its nother to rest. The little baby was laid away by the side of its mot her, in Colony graveyard, on Minday follow ing. Dr. Holland conducted the burial services. "Sleep on in thy beauty, Thou sweet angel child; By sorrow unblighted, By sin undefiled.

Last week it loaded up with Dr.Wyche and took a centre shot at the Honora ble J. A. Sligb. We know that Mr. Shgh is fully able to vindicate himself from this, or any other attack that the Observer may make upon hin; but still, Mr. Editor, if we are allowed space, we propose to have something to say upon the subject in our next letter. We poor clodhoppers are about all done rolling the clods and are now taking a few days of recreation. The prospect of a corn crop is very gloomy nowi indeed, we can't see at this time where there can possibly be more than a half crop made. Cotton, with the help of a few partial showers, seems to be holding up pretty well so far, and with favorable seasons from now on there can be a very good average crop made yet. We an not say that our crops have particularly suffered from drought, but the excessive heat has parched up our corn, and unless we get one of those good old time rains, that reaches from the mountains to the seaboard, soon, our cotton will also begin to parch up. - Vegetables have almost become a thing of the past, although tomatoes and okra are not quite dried up, and we are still gnawing away at a little vegetable soup. [WThat's good; but say, "Chips," how is the water melon crop down your way?-Type setter and pointer.] Jefferson Quattlebaum's old resi dence, occupied by Sam Cannon, col ored, was consumed by fire on last Sunday morning, about half-past three o'clock. The dining room stood about thirty feet from the house and was not used by Cannon at all. While Spene Scott was in jail his wife moved all of their things to Cannon's', putting them in the dining room. The fire first caught in the back part of the dining room. Cannon Qays that there had been no one in the dining room for the past three or four days. So evidently the fire originated either from a flying squirrel or rat getting among some matches, or from the hands of an in cendiary. It has always been a ques tion with me whether a flying squirrel or rat could set a house on fire. The only way they can light a match is with-their mouth, and would not the dampness from their mouth put out the match as soon as it was lighted? [U56It would if it "got damp quick." But it would have to be damp quick. And it should occur during the wet spell, when the mist penetrates into the wardrobes, and not while a "siz zard" is blazing. It should also be seen that there is no loose powder, etc., else we wouldn't like to be the rat that gnawed tne match that struck the light that set the fire to the house that Jack or anybody else '-uilt.-Type-set t r and pointer.] Mr. Quattlebaum had no insurance on his house.

The adminis tration has determined to down Judge Hudson, if possible. Yesterday morn ing Attorney General Townsend, after having carefully studied over the case, got his guns all primed and went up to Newberry, where he appeared before Justice Pope at chambers and obtained what is termed in legal phraseology an order restraining the operation of Judge Hudson's restraining order till the appeal is finally acted upon by the Supreme Court. In other words, the action of Judge Pope has the effect of entirely nullifying the order of Judge Hudson as far as practical results are concerned till the Supreme Court de cide upon the constitutionality of the law. Attorney General Townsend re turned to the city yesterday after noon, and there was much jubilation in the reform camp when the nature of the order be bad in his pocket be came known.-. The following is the order in full: State of South. Carolina, Darlingtoai County. In the Supreme Court. John Buckner Floyd and others, Defendants. On hearing tbe verified petition of John Buckner Floyd, George Just Brown, WV. P. Carter, and C. P. Kir yin, and it appearing that the-appeal in baid cause .has been perfected by filing the return in the office of the Clerk of this Court. On motion of D. A. Townsend, At torney General, for the petitioners: Ordered that the said restraining order in said cause, dated 7th July, ]893, and signed by his Honor, Judge J. H. Hudson, be. and the!same is here by stayed and superceded until the further order of this court. (Signed) Y. J. POPE. Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of S. C.. Wednesday, the 19th day of July, 1893. L EG AL OPINIONS. In legal circles there is grave doubt about the soundness of Justice Pope's decision ; in fact, there are those among the learned counsellors who do not hesitate to criticise it. The belief that the Justice's order was without authority is founded on these reasons : First, That an associate justice sitting in chambers has no such power. Second. B3ecause an appeal from an or dergranting an injunction will neither work a supersedeas itself nor support a rmotion for an order superseding the linntion. It is not impossible that the au thorities of Judge Hudson and Justice Pope will clash, and that the Darling ton dispensary will remain closed in consequence. "He laughs best who laughs last." SHAMEFULLY TREATED. Constables Cu' sed and Abused Like D~ogs, L Columbia Journal, 22.1 Assistant A ttorney-General Bucban. an returned to the city this morning for the first time since his experience in Charleston. He was asked by a Journal Reporter: "What have you to say about the charges of brutality.by the constables in Charleston?" He replied: "Only this, that they were slanders out of the whole cloth. The boot is on the other leg. The con stables were treated as such officers were never treated before. They were cursed, hissed, and even in thbe presence of the trial justice obscene jests and curses were applied to them. The ac tion of Cor:sta ble Pepper has been great. ly magnified. It is true he drew his pistol when a ribald curse reflecting upon his mother wvas applied to him. He would not have been a man if he had not. It should be remembered also that Pepper claims Chico was try ing to get out a pistol at the time. If the people knew all the facts in the treatment of these constables they would be indignant and righteously incensed. Evidence from Cbico's own household can be produced showing the falsity of the charge of ill treatment towards Mrs. Chico. "You say thbese indignit1ies were prac ticed upon these constables in the Trial Justice's office?" "Yes, even when one of them was testifying in the court he was the sub ject- of such insulting and indignant treatment." "Why did you not stop the cause when you found out the course they were pursuing?" "It was too fine an opportunity to demonstrate to the most credulous the absolute necessity of a change of venue when these cases come up and the utter impossibility of getting a f air trial there-everybody saw it. "There is another most inhuman phase to this matter, and that is that the most prominent andl influential liquor men, presumably their friends, are quietly allowed to get out of the business before this fight was shoved on the State, leaving a few men of small means and no influence to fight the State government. It coes seem thatt if a fight was to be made they should have all made common cause when the prominent maen were in it." Bottled Soda WVater at Ice House in three flavors. Coaind rnefreshing. 1v A Trip Under Difficulty. On Thursday last a party of ladies boarded the morning C. N. & L. train for Colunilia to witness the consecra tion of Bishop Capers. Ti- DAY BEFORE. The schedule and programme seemed to have been arranged to suit their par tivular trip. "IThe train, you know, comes at 7.311, and services begin at 11.3." "We will have time to spare in the city, too." "IThe train always comes on time, and it will return in the afternoon at such a convenient hour for us." "Isn't itjust splendid?" "It is the very thing!" So they put their several beads to gether and it was all mapped out. It is no everyday business for a half dozen or so of the gentler sex to take an early morning train. It requires a little brisk moving about to keep up with the procession, else an odd glove will be left dangling behind, and this or that accompaniment not be in time -with the lead. [This is imaginative on the part of the writer, but he thinks it tits the bill in any similar case.] THE DAY OF THE TRIP. The depot is finally reached in good time, tickets bought, everybody and everything ready, including lunch (for they were very independent: they would eat their lucch-for-dinner while waiting on the afternoon train at the Columbia depot). But the strange perversity of fate-the train is late. And then comes the train of anxiety. If you ever want to see the scene at Babel's tower re-enacted, just be at a depot under like conditions. [7his is noc imaginative-but it also applies to any such party in the same circum stances ] "It is too bad!" "That old train was on time yester day and every other day." "Of all days, why it should be late to lay is a mystery to me." "I just can't understand it." Mortal man cannot comprehend the suspense of waiting one hour on a train at such a time. That is, silent man cannot. It takes woman-real live woman-to appreciate the situa tion. The train came. But she didn't go -not right away. The very iron-y of destiny! She shifted, she shifted, she shifted. "Why should the train have so much shifting to do on' this especial day, I would like to know?" "I declare, it is too provoking!" After so long a time-ages to them tke train did manage to start; but the little party had heavy doubts and trembling fears that they would at last miss the view they longed to behold. The train might be side-tracked; it was likely that it would be. Then there would be "weeping and wailing and gnashing" for fact. "So near and yet so far," when a mits would be worse than 43 miles. Conductor George Bishop bad not more than stepped into the coach be fore he was aware that he had a hot box on hand. He just had to get them to Columbia in time; there was no use talking about it, they were obliged to be at Trinity church at 11.30. They impressed the fact so vividly upon the captain that he sent word to his en gineer of the hot water he was in. Well, to make a long story short, the train and her obliging and ener getic crew did their level best, and all bands got to Columbia in time, but with not a minute to spare. - That was - one time at least that this train was on the accommodation line; and if ever a conductor and his engineer were appreciated it was then.. And peace reigned for the space of a few seconds. NEEDLE. Best "50 cent" corset at tf DAVENPOR'T & RENWICK'S. Now Try This.

Sease, of New berry, and Miss Lula J. Caugh man, of Edgefield County, S. C. DEATHS. Mr. Francis A. Connor, of Cokes bury, father of Mrs. J. F. J. Caldwell, died at his residence on the night of the 22nd instant, after an illness of about three weeks. Mr. Connor was a man of a high order of ability, of fine scholarship, and of a truly enviable character both for business probity and piety. During his long life of seventy five years he rendered great service to his church, to the cause of education, to his county and to the State. He left to mourn his loss not only a large family connection, but also many friends in every section of South Caro lina. Sudie R., eldest and beloved daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. T. P. Lane, died Tuesday night, 18th July, 1893, of ty phoid fever. Her mind was clear and calm and she would have retained con sciousness to her expiring breath, but to prevent the e.xtreme pain she must have suff'ered in the moments of disso lution her kind-hearted physician ad mnstered morphine, for he saw by a sudden fatal tendency of the disease that she must die and death be pain ful. She had been doing well and her re covery was assured so far as human judgment could determine; hence the affliction came with crushing force upon her devoted parents and friends. She thanked the doctor for being so kind in not giving her but one dose of medicine that night, all unconscious of his thboughts, for he knew that she was at that moment under the shadow of death. She sang her favorite hymns in the afternoon before her death, in one of which the thought occurs, "I once was lost, but now am found." Thbis dear child and sweet little Chris tian was in the flush of her 16th year full of the fire of celestial love, sympa thy, energy and ambition. She was a studious, thoughtful and obedient girl and had in her thbe qualities that would have made a noble woman. But she was wanted in a purer, better world than this, and has been taken as a jewel for the Master's crown.
