At Boyd’s drag store will be found many nseful and beautiful presents for Xmas. REV. J. G Law, while in atten dance at a meeting of the Board of Directors ot the Theological Sein- inery, held in Columbia last week, acted as Secretary of the Board The annual report of the Super intendent of the Institution for the Deaf, Dumb and the Blind at Ced ar Springs, Sparteubarg County, shows that there is only one pupil there from Darliugtou County. ' Mr. Watson will soon move bis marble yard from the old Floyd store on Pearl Street, to the lot be tween Dr. Boyd’s Drug Store and the “Hews’’ office, where be is hav ing an office and work shop erected. The day trains to and from Co- lambia began running on Monday last, and were so well patronized as to induce the belief that the author ities will deem it advantageous to run them permanently. Remember that Mr. L. A Haynswortb, who is right here in Darlington, can clean your guns, { listols, clocks and jewelry as nice y as it ean be done iu Charleston or Columbia. Mb. J. G. McCall requ-sts all the managers of State and county bor as, at the recent election, to call at his store as soon as convenient, as he is ready to settle with them foi (heir duties at the polls. Mrs, Hattie Sanders, of New Tork, the invalid sister of Mrs. A. Nachman, died at the residence of Mr. Nachman at eight o’clock on Tuesday night - The remains were carried to Charleston for interment; The store of Messrs. R. L. Bryan & Co. in Columbia, is beyond a doubt, tbe best book store in the State. Those desiring to purchase Christmas curdsor handsome Christ- mas presents would do well to ol der from them. The Abbeville correspondent of tbe lYetrs and Courier, in speaking of tbe Bench aud Bar of Abbeville County, says: Charles P. Pressley graduated at ErskineCollege, stud [ed law with Parker ami McGowan and was admitted to the Bat in 1883. He is now a rising young latter of Angusta, Ga. A correspondent of tbe Neic- terry Newt and Herald in speaking of tbe House of Representatives- •ays: Tba personnel of the body is good, but not equal to that ot two years ago. Mauy ouee frmiliar faces are missed. Among tbe num ber Bimonton McCrady, Bummers Mtffisou, Graydon Scbumpert, Mcljp, Blue, Spenser aud others Bns play that is shortly to be put on tbe stage here is a drama in three acts, entitled “Nevada, or the Lost Mine” It is one of Geo. M. Baker’s best pieces, and as the cast oij characters has been selected firom the best material aud with tbe otmost care, it is sure to be presented as the writer intended it to be. From what we have beard of tbe rehearsals, we do not hesitate to say that it will be one of tbe best performances ever given iu Darting- ton. A meeting of tbe citizens of Dar lington was held in the Court House on Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock to take such action as would show to tbe Genera’ Assembly the many and vital obj^ctlm s to cutting off any portions of Darlington County, for tbe purpose of fotmiuga new county. Messrs. W. C. Coker, E. R. Mclver aud Geo. W. Brown were appointed a committee to go to Columbia at once aud present this matter to tbe Legislature iu its proper light. Doc Robinson, a negro from Florence, said to be a brother of tbe man who was recently lynched in that town, broke into Hannah Robinson’s restaurant, near Kal- mua ft Rosenberg’s store on Pearl Street, on tbe night of December 3. and stole nearly everything tbe old lady bad. It was bis intention to open a restaurant for himself with Annt Hannah’s goods, bat fortu- nateiy lor her, the officers of tbe law, discovered Doo, and after a visit to Trial Justice Dargau, he proved to be such an interesting personage that they concluded to give him free meals and lodging at Darlington County sent 24 con victs to tin* Penitentiary during tbe past fiscal year. On the n ght of December 6th, Messrs. J E. Richards and Jim Wilson, occupying om* of Hie Irout rooms in Mrs. E. T. Fladgor*’board ing hou«e in Florence, were roused from their sleep by three masked men iu the room standing around the bed. One ot them had bis band on tbe throat of Mr. Wilson, which orevented him from making any sound. He was bonud, both bands and feet, had a handkerchief tied over bis mouth and was taken from the bed aud placed on bis trunk in this con lit ion. Mr. Richards bad evidently been drugged, but as it did not have the desiicd effect be started fiom his bed and was cov ered by a pistol, iu the bauds of one of the burglars. He attempted to take the pistol from the man, but was overcome and forced to keep quiet at the peril ot Ids life. The three men a ter huding tht* keys tc the trunks, went coolly to work and took everything of value that they coaid find. Mr. Wilson’s two rings, Mr. Richards’ watt b and all the money of both were taken. They inquired it there was any one else iu the bouse who had money aud it is supposed they would .have gone further, but lor tbe fact that some one in another part of the house got u t i just about that time and they made off. Mr. Richards untied Mr. Wilsen and they went back to bed and said nothing of what had oc curred until next morning. There is no clue as yet to wbe the burg lars were CINCINNATI Btltiun-:* Aud Celebrated One audTwo-Uorse Wagons, made in Atlanta, <iu., and H ci ory, N.
