On Saturday night a party of colored men belonging to a turpen tine farm, having "looked up >n the wine when it i.s red within ;hc cup" and sipped too fieely of the inspiring fluid, wotked themselves into a riot which demanded the attention of the Town Marshals who have in charge the keeping of t he peace of me com munity.

Death - We are pained to chronicle the death of Dr. J. 11. Poosor on Sun lay morning at his resilience iu this Count}'. Dr. Purser was a man of more than ordinary intelligence, and pos sessed many traits of character which endeared him to those with whom In* was acquainted. His bright and active, min i, an I pica .-ing manners, and con vcrsalionaI power.* rendered him attractive in any company iu which he was; thrown. W bile a practicing physician he enjoyed the confidence of a large list of patrons. Jiut his canhly career has ended, and we are reminded that, we are one by one passing on to another country. Our Hymp.ithies arc with the bereaved frieu Is and relations. We also learn that Mr. Mack, of Hull Swamp, after a lingering illness with dropsy, and his sister, Mrs. 11 into, of the For!;, alter a short illness with neuinoiiia, died on the same day, the lirvt part of thi.sjjweuk. As we tiro preparing for pro.-s. we also hear of the sail and sudden death of Mr. Win L*ecl in o ir town, Ironi heart disease He had been from home for some time, and had just slopped here on Wednesday evening on Ins return to his family in good health and spin:-, and on Thursday morning he died. A Generous I> ?u *tii?j - We have had the pleasure of seeing the splendid silver mounted fireman's trumpet piesclitid by Messrs. Kum soy ?v Co., ol Seneca Falls, New York, to the ladies in charge of the Presbyterian Orbtmns Festival to be voted lor and presented to the tire Company, cither the Elliotts or.the Ycung Americas, who receive, at the Festival, the largest number of voles. We e.-lccm this as a deed of Chris tian generosity,and kind hearted and disinterested benevolence which will be remembered, and as an additional evidence that the heart of friendship hen's in unison in all parts of Chris tendom, and that the hand of Chris tian charily between *he sections of the union is ready to be clasped over ihe blood y chasm of the ni-t. This friendly contest, we have no doubt, will he a prominent and ex citing feature of the Festival, and we trust will realize u respectable amount for the worthy and Christian object in view. The company petting the trumpet will carry off a vain.idle trophy. JO litilts and lied Shirts aim for the prize. The FI rent mi's Jubilee On last Thut.-d'ty night was a bril liant and interesting occasion. The turnout of citizens was larger than usual, and the supper reflected much credit on the Committee of arrange ments. The programme was publish ed in our last issue, but was some what changed in the carrying out. The tables extended Iron) one ell 1 of the Hook ami Ladder Nail to t ie o ber, and atom 1 the festive board were seated the Fdisto littles, the Young Americas, the Limns, the lb ai d of Fire Masters, a large nti'ii hei ol citizens, ami representatives of thu down Council, the Pros and the Cirri v. The large assemblage was welcohi'd in a few nppropriate words of cheer from Foreman L. II. Wunnnmukcr of the Elliot ts. After till present had practica I ly tested the viands set before them the cloths wi re removed and the flow of humor and sentiment commenced. "mi: DAY WU CHI.KIIRA I K," the Iii st toi t of evening, was - t il ?wn on the programme to Foreiu n Wan iiaiuakor, who, having made the ad dress of welcome called upon S. U. Mellichamp to rcspoii I. The latter, alter alluding to ihe associations which cluster arptind the day, read it poem which In* had prepared weav ing in song and story thu natu sol the firemen ol Orangeburg. He did not however venture to sing it. "TIi; Ydl Ml AMKKICAS," the next toast, was assigned to Fore man ICS. Ilubbcll, who called upon F. S. Sch if Hey, Esq., to respond for bis Company Mr. Scbilllcy, in whose keeping tlio interests of the Red ?Shirts never "suffer, performed the tusk in his usual neat und appropriate style. "ouu city fatueb8," the third toast was appropriately i responded to by,u letter from our hono rable Mayor Moscley, whose absence Irom sickness was much regretted. "OlMI CITY," brought to bis feet Mr.? W. L. Glaze, who was called upon to take the place of Capt. .John A. Hamilton, who was absent, lie performed his unexpected task in a pleasing man ner. ?'our Patron." This toast was feelingly responde 1 t<> iti a letter from the beloved and venerable Patrou of the Elliotts, Dr. T. A. Elliott which tombed a chord of love and veneration in the hearts ol all present. Alter the reading of this letter M. I. Rrowning Esq , was loudly called for wdio kept his audi ence enchained lor at least a half an boor with an uninterrupted 11 >w of wit, humor ami eloquence. "(H l! invitk? OUEST." This toast was sot down on ihn pro gramme to Mr. .Jas. S. Heyward, who wus known Jo bo on a vis it to his old home, and it was hoped that | he would have lieen out to mingle again in iocial union with his many friends in Orangchurg, who admire and love him for his sterling qualities, and sought this occasion of showing their appreciation. His absence was regretted, but Mr. R. I'. Izlnr was called upon and did full justice to the theme in a pleat and pleasant speech. "THE juoici a BY," received full and ample justice at the hands ol our respected fellow-Citizen Gen. Jas. F. I/Jar, who reviewed the1 exalted character of lie; Reach of Rar of our State, and amused his hearers with several anecdotes which fairly brought down the house. "the pkes3." This toast was well handled by II. G. Sheridan Esq. He spoke in glowing terms of the duty of a pure and free pu.-s, and practically illustrated its power in the laud, when properly used, in correcting the evils of society, and moulding and elevating public opinion. "tiii-; r.DtsTO rifles." This toast was neatly and appropriate ly responded to by Lieut. F. S. Ldb bio, who nobly upheld the banner ol' ibis gallant young corps. "WOMAN,'' the last, but the best toast of the evening, was responded to in beauti ful, chaste and polished style by Rev. J. D. A. Brown. As ho proceeded, he warmed up with his theme, and presented her as she is, God's hist aud best gift to man, without whom all is dreariness aud desolation. Thus was parsed a pleasant even ing in which all,alter enjoying th "n selves, returned to their quiet iinin?, undoubtedly bouelitted by the friend ly reunion and social contact of comrades. The whole occasion was enlivened by the excellent, tunic, both vocal and instrumental, furnish ed air. Henry Kohu, and the mem bers of the Glee Club. ?15 OU'iiiH a Do/.cu .1. <$i P.
