Those interested in the ad dress which Gen, Gordon is to make m Darlington on Dec. 27 will be interested in reading the following press notices concern ing it: “Seldom is it vouchsafed to people in this day to behold so glorious and so inspiring an event as was the magnificent spectacle witnessed by a large audience last evening at the Lyceum Theater. The lecture will, if we mistake not, abide as a lasting benediction. To one who was not present it would be hard to convey any idea of the splendor of the scene, the beneficence of the occasion. There was something so much deeper in the man than even in what he uttered that his very presence lent a solemn and sa cred grandeur to the occasion. At the close, as well as at re peated intervals throughout the lecture, the applause was long and loud, and the platform was covered with men and women who had rushed up to shake the General's hand.” —JVie Sunday Times, Minneapolis, Minn.,Nov. 25, 1894. was especially imposing, I married. and the entry of no State dele-1 At Fair Hope church, on) gation has aroused suchenthus- ] Wednesday, Nov. 27, 1895. by ■asm or been greeted with such the ReT j H |>ixon, Mr U.

Mrs. Law was a Miss Crawford, of Marion Coun ty. Both of her parents died when she was quite young, and she was adopted by her kins man, the late Mr. David C. Milling, of Darlington County. Mrs. Law served as postmaster at this place during President Cleveland’s flrstadministration, and gave great satisfaction to the community in that capacity. She afterwards filled a position in the store of Messrs. 8. A. Woods & Co., and retired from it only a few months ago owing to ill health. Mrs Law v.as a very superior woman, and was greatly beloved by all who knew he r She had a large family connection in this Coun ty, besides which, she leaves behihd her a host of friends to mourn her loss. “When General Gordon rose in Washington Artillery Hall last night, to speak upon the pregnant and thrilling memories of the civil war, he was saluted by an audience which for num bers and enthusiastic demons trations of welcome is not often vouchsafed to public speakers anywhere. Artillery Hall was densely packed with citizens. Possessing a magnificent phy sique and grand voice, his pre sence as a public speaker would command at the beginning the attention of any audience, but when there were added to these, noble thoughts presented with the ease and grace and dignity tnat belong to oratory, it is the simple truth to say that General Gdi-don threw upon his vast an dience a spell which enchanted and enchained them through every word of his resounding eloquence.” [Editorial]—Daily Picayune, New Orleans, La. riverdale.

And it was a remarkable assemblage in more respects than this. One familiar with the representative people of the Capital, .with its sterling busi-ess men, its na tional politicians, its social and intellectual faces, needed only to sweep the eye over the vast throng to distinguish such citi zens in every direction.

Atlanta has been for weeks the objective point of delega tions from the various States and the targe cities of the Un ion, gathering there to witness the great Cotton States' Exposi tion, but so far nothing has equaled in number the irruption of South Carolinians who invad ed the Gate City on Friday last, led by Gov. Evans and Senator Tillman. There were fully 16,000 of them, but Atlanta’s generous hospitality was equal to the task of taking care of distinguished them T h® one of the most wealthy O « A t prosperous States of the tfi enthusiasm greater, Gov. At-1 K ^ „ i¥e to atuin a as were the hosts of the Palmetto citizens The South Carolina exhibit in the Agriculture building is com prehensive and unique, and would be worthy of the largest and most prosperous State in the Union. It shows a variety of products and an artistic skill in arrangement which is sur prising even to the Carolinians who visit it. Not only the prod ucts of the soil and thf dairy, but the mines, the quarries, the mills, the forests, the fisheries, the commerce and the educa tion of the State are all illustra ted by their noblest product ions. Few realize that in the inter vals of the more or less prolong ed periods when she has been engaged in making things dis agreeable and lively for Uncle Sam, South Carolina has been taking seven league strides in the march of progress and de velopment. The shipment of fourteen little bogs of cotton from Charleston in 1785, con stituting the entire crop of the State, has swelled until now the State raises one-thirteenth of the entire American crop, and its value last year was$2o,- 000,000. The handful of rice from a wrecked ship planted in a flower garden at Charleston a century ago, has expanded un til it amounted in a single year to 3,664,000 bushels. Over 17,- 500,000 bushels of corn were harvested in 1894. A South Carolina farmer a few years ago won the $1,000 prize for the greatest yield of corn to the acre, in competition with the entire United States, his yield having been 254 bushels to acre. Other records are bushels of oats, 92 bushel rice and 2,600 pounds of cotton to the acre. Nor is the development of manufacturing of the Palmetto State any less marvelous than the productivness of its soil. In line with her sister States of the South, and in advance of many of them, South Carolina is ex periencing an industrial awak- eniu/; which gives splendid op portunity for the development of her rich resources. South Carolina is going steadily for- wa^d, building mills. In 1880 there were fourteen mills in op eration; in 1887 there were twen ty-nine; in 1894 there were fifty- nine, with charters issued to the first of May for five new mills. Her tpindles and looms now number nearly one third of the total number of the entire South. In the single county of Spartan burg there are sixteen different companies and twenty two sep arate mills, operating 390,500 spindles and 12,000 looms con suming 160,000 bales of cotton annually, employing 8,000 op eratives, and paying out in wa ges and for cotton nearly $10, 000,000 a year. When it is re membered that to the 13,000,000 spindles of the North the cotton is hauled from 1,000 to 1,500 miles, we can better appreciate the advantage of South Caroli na setting up her millions of spindles beside ber cotton fields, and eliminating the heavy cost of transportation, It is a nota ble fact that during all the strin gency of the past three years the mills and factories of South Carolina found it profitable to continue their work on full time with never a stop, and even ray ing from 8 to 12 per cent, divi- dneds from the earnings of the past fe*F years. They have not only stood the pressue of hard times, but they have actually made money, in some instances a great deal of money. The av erage cost of wa er power has beeen found to be about $1.70 in South Carolina, less than any State in the Union, and varying from 12 cents upward, rarely or never so high as $10. Water power is more abundant, more convenientlysituated as regards railroads and markets, and in the cities electricity may be had at a cost of less than the fuel that would supply a steam boil er. • South Carolina will one day and nion. erance, daughter of Mr, R.
