At a meetiug, ou Monday night, of the committee, appointed by the Daningtou Guards to arrange for the fak, it was decided to invite the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, to co operate with the company in this matter. The question will be submitted to the Knights shortly for consideration, aud the commit tee from the Guards will aw. it their deoisiou before taking further steps In the matter. At all events, how aver, the lair will lie held at an car !y day and will prove, we confident ly predict, a most enjoyable affair. Udfortunatc Me Dade B. MoDade, for whom, us "as stated iu tiro last issue ot The News, a requisition had been made upou tbe Governor of North Carr,- liua, was delivered into the hands of Sheriff'Cole and brought here from Lamiuburg last Friday after noon Tbe charge upon which he was arrested, it will be remember ed, was obtaiuiug goods under false pretences. Upon bis arrival, Me- Dade was taken before Trial Jus tice Sanders, but ns uo demand was made on the part of the piisou er tor a preliminary henring, the Judge required him to give bond or go to jail. As it was impossible for him to give tbe required bond, McDade was committed to prison and unless he demands a prelimi nary hearing, will there await his trial at the next sitting of the Court of General Sessions, Mopade, by bis gentlemanly earing and pleasing manners, has elicited the aympatby of not a few and doobtieua erery lawful effort wlU be made by those thus interest- off to clear him of the charge upon Which he trss ntrerteff. “Home Again ” Rer. J.O. Law retnrned home on Thnrsdxy much i*uprov*d by his trip across the waters. He nist with a hearty greeting from all here and on Snuday morning and evening large concourses of bis friends gathered at the Presby- terian Church to hear him. On the table immediately io front of the pulpit was a beautiful stand of flowers with a card bearing the inscription “Welcome to our pas tor.” His reception thongh touch- ing and beantitul was only a slender testimonial of the high regard iu which he is held by the entire community. Mr. Law took for his text the latter part of the 1st. verse, 21st. chapter of Revelations, "And there was uo more sea,” “Friendship, Chanty, benevolence.” Au appeal has been received by the Grand Chancel (.r of the Knights of Pythias, Jurisdiction of South Carolina, from the Knights of Jacksonville in behalf of their bretberen suffering from yellow 1 fever. In consequence of this ap-1 peal circulars have been sent to all the Lodges of the Older iu th* State, requesting them to con tribute to the relief fund. Several lodges, with the usual “charity and benevolence” which is charac tenstic of the Knights of Pythias, have anticipated this appeal and have already come forward with financial aid for tjia fever strickau Knights. Stonewall Lodge, No. 0, ot Charleston, aud Myrtle Lodge, No. ff, of Columbia, have contribut ed 8oO each ; Carolina Lodge, No. 9, of Charleston, has contributed 825 to the fund. Our Artersian Well. Prof. Charles U. Shepard, of Charleston, the eminent chemist, at the request of Mayor Willcox has ■given the quantitive compositiou ot tbe Artesian water. It is found that the water contains the follow ing ingredients chloride of potas- ium, chloride of sodium, sulphate of soda, sulphate of lime, sulpbuie of magnesia, protosulphate of iron, silica and combustible matter, to the amount of 2.59 grains to the galh n. At tbe conclusion of his report Mr. Shepard says: “These results aud those pre viously communicated (in analysis number 5535 of August 23rd) lead me to regard the water supplv, whence these samples were drawn, as furnishing water of fair quality aud—so tar as one can jttd^e fro n the meic chemical investigation— adapted for the general use of a community.” The Tobacco Crop. It is extremely gra. Dying to note the success ot those who ar-* plant mg tobacco iu the county this year. Iu every in>tauce they havo ex cellent props aud will be pleased with the financial result. The urOacco crop of North Carolina and Virginia are the poorest tuey have bad for years, and tine wrappci* and cutters will sell higher tuau they have fur some time. South Catoliua tobacco is in de mand, manufacturers have louud that weeau glow icat of rate ex cellence, possessing unu-ual body, toughness, color aud flavor. Buy ers from several maikeis are eu- deavoriug to buy diieet from larm- ers pack bouses here. ' We learn that Mr. F. M. It ‘g -rs, Jr., declined a few days ago S8<Hf!j for a crop of 3<) acres. It has been clearly demonstrated by Uo* loveises through which tne present crop lias pasta d, that it c.ui stand successfully more ups aud d iwu’s than any other gio*n on our soil. Whereas, It is the Imperative duty of farmera to resist the pres cut extortion of the bagging trust; and, whereas, this cau only be suc cessfully done by au earnest and full co opeiadon. Be it, therefore, Itetolved, by this County Alli ance, That the State aud National Alliances be requested to take such steps as may be necessary toseenre this end. Resolved, secondly, That we do hereby pledge ourselves as au Alb- 1 ai ccaud as indixiduals to eiidoise and to carry* into execution any plan which may be adopted by the higher councils of our Order. Resolved, thirdly, that iu the meantime the members of this Alli ance be advised and requested to use any available material in pref- ereu -e to jnte bagging. These resolutions were irame diately adopted. The Alliance iheu adjourned to mtet again on the 5th of October, the regularly appointed day for meeting, when the whole subject of “trusts” will agaij be discussed. Twenty-three Sub-Alli ances were represented and fully a hundred delegates were present. The Ginning, Milling and Fertilizer Company took ordeisat the ad journment ot the meeting tor abont twelve hundred yauls of bagging, one half ot which was ol cotton and the other of. pine straw. This bag ging will be shipped here from the Line Mills at New Orleans. —Mieg Mary See McCollutan, stirring up the people on the suBn who Imh been spin bug Mime Mine ject of education, bet • r schools, with Mej.

The Cotton Bagging Question. The Darlington County Farmers’ Alliance met iu the Court House on Tuesday with “closed doors.” The meeting was called to order by the President, Mr. Lucas McIn tosh, who stated its object to be to consider tbe extortions of the bag ging trust. Bpi-cimeus of bagging made born cotton and troin piue straw were then exhibited, aud Col. E It. Melver expl.nufd whybecou- sidered them both acceptable as substitutes for the jute. A com mittee consisting of Messrs. J. E. Pettigrew, E U. Melver, E. E. Evans, G. D. Scarboro’ and T. J.

Antioch township is especially progresrive, being owned principally by small farmers, who do their own work and do it right, keep out of debt and always have a little left. We notice Mr. Jno. Davis building a large and commodious giu house in addition to the one he already has, besides doing a thriving business iu lumber. They talk of bui ding a new Methodist Church iu that neighborhood soon, aud there are numerous other buildings going up ou ail sides.

Perbsps 4 additional mills would cover the time. Or, if them be any political objictiou to statutory high taxes for education, allow each school district lo tax itself from year to year according to its will ingness and needs. In this case there would he ne<‘d of electing in stead of appointing trustees; and then another need of property qual ification to prevent mob-rule in the school districts.
