this week in Darlington in the in

S

Visitors to the Fair in passing
the store of II r s. L. Stern berger
will be sure to observe with what
taste bis two front windows are ar
ranged so aa to display a fine lot of
gentlemen’s famishing goods.
J. B. Eiixouoh was not able to
take time to exhibit at the Fair.
He proposes to give his costomers
the benefit of what be saves in ex
pense. Order from him and yon
will find be means business.
OB passing Hertz’s trait store on
Etarle Street, one is struck with its
appearance. The variety of the
firait and its artistic arrangement,
reminds one more ot the Charleston
etores than anything in that line we
have ever seen in this section.
Tbb Drag Store of Willcox ft Co„
aider the Enterprise Hotel is one
of the handsomest in the State.
The stock ol fancy articles attracts
particular attention. Ne«’ goods
are being constantly received and
quickly sold.
The Darlington correspondent of
the “Newt and Courier” has receiv
ed a commnnication from that pa
per asking him to furnish for publi
cation sketches of the lives and
pnblie services of the Democratic

TBB many fhends of Mr. A Wein

J” Cmnty F*ir opened on Wednesday
wtih bright proapeou. The good rain of
tbe night before put an end to the diea-
greeableduet of thepatt month, and made
it very much pleasanter. The comfort of
tbe visitors will be greatly Increased by tbe
fed that they oen obtain at tbe Baiaar on

tempting array of hie choice slock. The
exhibits excel those of any previous year,
and there is every indication that a large
crowd will be in attendance on Thursday,
the great day,

8very reason to be proud ot the
handsome Cborcb which they have
recently erected. Work was begun
on it in March last, and by May 1st
services were held in it. On the
3rd Sunday in each month Rev. W.
J. Wright, of Charleston, visits
Florence for the purpose of bolding
services. On Sunday before last
he was accotnpained by Bishop
Northrop, who administered tbe
rite 'of confirmation to nineteen
persons, font males and fifteen
females. There were three services
during the day, and on each oc
casion, tbe Church was crowded.
The Bishop preached two admir
able sermons. The Church appears
to be in a most flourishing con
dition ; tbe congregation numbers
about 80.
On Friday morning at 5 20
o’clock and again in tbe afternoon
at 2 45, this whole section ot the
country was visited by severe shocks
of earthquake, each of which lasted
for at least twenty seconds. These
shocks were heavier than any since
Aug. 31. In Summerville a good
deal of new brick-work fell, and it
is said that it will take $8,000 to
repair tbe damage. The Custom
House in Charleston was cracked
to such an extent on tbe outside
wall that one could place bis band
into the opening. The shock* were
quite severe in Colombia, Darling
ton, and, in fact, all over tbe State
The extent of this disturbance was
greater than any which proceeded
it, as far north as Washington and
as far west as Ohio, the quiver was
felt.
In some parts of the State those
who talk abont “cutting down tbe
expenses of the government” argue
that a Court Stenographer is a lux
ury which can be dispensed with.
If there are any who hold this view
in Darlington County, it would be
well for them to visit Court while
it is in session and watch tbe
interesting work of our accomplish
ed Stenographer, F. F. Covington,
Esq. Let the smooth and prompt
manner in which all tbe business is
now conducted be compared with
the old time way, when the witness
would have to wait so often until
the Judge, who was taking down
the testimony in long hand, could
catch np with him. When this
comparison is made, we think it
will be found that, apart from all
other considerations, tbe expense
saved the County will more than
compensate for the salary paid the
Stenogrupbei.
