Oranoeburo has the reputation of trying to bring Moses to trial, and now i? being tested as a collecting agency. A bill is here for collection upon F. J. Moses Jr. Wonder if the drawer will shave it; if so he may sell it for a relic of the much abused native Governor. See notice of Dr. T. B. Legarc in another column. The doctor's profes sional skill is established beyond need of mention here, and we are requested to state, that patients needing his ser vices will apply early in person or by letter, that appointments may be made to enable him to give attention to pro fessional calls outside of the town. The "Orange Club" has played the first of the series of games for the championship with the Carolinas, and will play the next in Charleston. The correspondent of the News & Courier states that the challenge came from the "Orange club," this is a mistake, the "Oraugo" accopted the banter of the Carolinas. A little practice will worry up their sturdy opponents. Taxa Orange club and Swamp An gela me' again on Tuesday, and played the last of the match games, and the result showed the Swamp Angels 73 to a score of 43 -for tho Oranges! This leaves the Orange club defeated in the contest for home championship. Our Schools.?If any community is alive to tho interest of good schools it is ours, and to our friends in the country . whose children aspiro to un usual advantagesnear at home, we can safely recommend the several schools "in Orangeburg. That of Miss Rebecca Albcrgotti is the oldest, having been in successful operation for the training of young ladies and children even be fore the close of tho war. Miss Alber gotti's system and discipline has and always will secure large support. Next in order is ihe Orangeburg Academy of Mr. Jas. S. Hey ward. Mr. H. is a teacher of fine culture and his through drill places him in an enviable posi tion for the public patronage. Mr. Stiles II. Mellrchamp is in deserved favor with his ?rst eines school, and i? abreast with the latest modes of in struction. We hope these popular schools will be filled nt their next session. Sons of Temperance.?A public installation of officers of this order took place on Monday night at their hall. A large attendance of ladies and citizens gathered and occupied the scats prepared. Tho venerable Dr. Thos. Elliott acted as Grand Conduc tor, and G. W. P. Brother Elkins per formed the rites. The ceremony of installation issimplsyet beautiful,and tho following officers took position for the following quarter: John A. Ham iltion W. P.; Mrs. Eliza Cannon W. A; J. C. Edwards R. S.j J. L. Heidtmnnn A. R. S.; P. Ltcgare P. S.; James A. Hamilton C; Miss Lucy Danuer A C; F. S. Dibble Ch.; T. O. S. Dibble I. S.; L. H. Wauuamaker O. S.; J. G. Mc Kewn P. W. P. After the installa tion the meeting was addressed by the W. P. elect with remarks that appealed to the sympathy of the public in the work. Mr. Elkins also entertained the audience with a pleasant speech. A collation among the members ended the interesting events ot the evening. The Society numbers about fixty ladies and genllemci:. The Fourth.?A drum and fife at the bead of a colored militia company, roused our citizens to the fact tit at "Independence day" had run its an nual round. The column after march ing to the engine house halted, and dressed right and left as best they could in undress uniform, and thure met the "Comet" fire company in their usual good appearance who wcicgeting ready for the enjoyment of the day. The train from Charleston brought the Carolina base ball club" with many visitors from the old city by the sea, and Meroney's bus was never more in demand. At three o'clock the field of contest was alive with anxious faces, and the champion Carolinas in their handsome uniform got ready lor the match. The Orange club were in their neat outfit, and although not the match [ of their opponents in physique they met them to win or to fight for it. The game excited great interest and greater disappointment, when the result wns known, and the Oiango club wero'de feated by a score of 23 to 41. The fielding of the Orange club was said to be excellent, and the general playing of the Carolinas was incomparable. Each club caught ten fly balls. At night a splendid avotion of ediblan, drinkables, and mirth making, greeted the guests from Charleston, who left by the night train full of victory, and kind feeling for the generous hosts, and wann welcome had in Orangcburg during the game. Town Clodk.?Orangeburg needs a Town Clock senrcely any two persons agree upon the time, and the various meetings of our societies arc seldom held at tho appointed hour, because there is no standard recognized by the community. It is n notorious fact that the services in our various churches do not often -commence at the hour stated. Now time (iu one sense at least) is money, and if we had a clock which the community would adopt as the correct standard, much timo, now uselessly spent in waiting till tho latest man's watch shall have indicated the proper hour, would be saved. Tho advantages are so obvious, however, that we will next ask, "is it practicable'? We think so. Tho Steeple of the Baptist church was evidently built with reference to placing a clock there ami wo arc informed by several Baptists, that it would be en tirely agreable.to the members to use it for this purpose. Is tho cost too great? We think not. An experienced watch maker, who has circulars of town clock makers, tells us that a clock with 4 dials (3} feet in diunntcr), giving only the time, can be purchased for $250; a clock striking the hours would cost, $425. There would be a few additional ex penses incurred, but they would bo comparitivoly small. But who will furnish tbo money? Where the whole community is to be benefited, we arc unwilling to ask a few individuals to bear the expenses, and think the Town should foot the bill. We respectfully suggest to our Council to give this matter their immediate attention. Let every one who is interested speak to the members of the Council on the subject.
