Tlie Oi'angcburg Times LOCAL Our depot is getting a new coat of paint. The gardens are looking line after the rains. Court opens at Orangeburg on Monday, Judge Thomson presiding. There was an unusual number of visitors to our Burg to attend relig ious services last Sunday. . - ? i tm ? -tw - M r. Z. d. King, we are. informed, has sold out his interest in Orange burg and gone to Texas. The Young Americas turn out on Tuesday afternoon on monthly pa rude when wt will get another sight at "Uncle Joe." Dr. Sherrod Beeves is making im provements in his store which will add materially to the convenience of Iiis business. Mr. Robert Tilly, the night tele graph operator at this place has been transferred to Chattanooga, and left us on Tuesday. A business meeting of the Young Mcnt Christian Association will be behl at their rooms this evening at half-past eight o'clock. A f?ll at tendance is desired. We hear the rumor that one of the prominent delegates to the Radical Convention in Columbia, pawned his watch to raise the funds to pay his expenses to the Convention. The Young .Men's Christian Asso ciation will give a Dime Reading at their rooms on Momlay evening, May Sid, at half-past eight o'clock. Ad mission ten emits. Mr. E. L. Daulxlcr lies been ap pointed Fish Warden for Vance's Ferry, by Commissioner Butler, and also a Notary Public by his Excel lency (low Simpson. ???? ? ? <?? We notice that ( 'apt. Bell is mak ing rapid headway, with the stables of | Mr. Ed. Slater. The building, when completed, will be the largest and lust in the town. Mr. Slater will receive another car load of horses to nn? now. We have received a circular from a well known capitalist enquiring >r lands for sale in Orangeburg County. If any one has lands to dispose of be may lind a purchaser by adver tising the same, giving the quality, price, ifcc. We regret to hear of the illness of ('apt. .lohn A. Hamilton, during the past week, and hope he will soon be entirely restored to'health, lie was taken sick in Charleston where be bad gone on a visit and was com pel led, under medical advice, to re turn to his home. ? ^ - - A row took place in the Kentucky Legislature last week between a member by the name of White and the Speaker, whose name was Bigger. They bad a rough ami tumble light in which AN'bite got the worst of it as might naturally have been c:; pect cd, the other man being "bigger." The storm on Monday was very severe in parts of our county east of Orangeburg. Only the edge of it struck our town, but its power was sensibly felt. We have heard of I trees ami fences being blown down in many places. From the storms in thi' West anil elsewhere t he indica tion's arc that this will be a year of cyclones. ?-? m -? - Miss B. McComb Wood gave her recitations at Masonic Hall oil Fri day and Monday nights to very small audiences, the weather having se riously interferred. The recitations ?were good, and those present seem to have been pleased. .Miss Woods de serves success, and we hope she will find better audiences in the future where she may give her leadings. The following Petil Jurors have been drawn for the May Term of Court: 1) dos Zeigh-i.

Wo tiro reliably informed that two of the delegates to the Radical Cou , vent ion lust Saturday, instead of coining to the Convention, stayed home and planted 17 acres cotton. It. is a pity that others did not see the wisdom of staying home and making an honest support for oneself, instead of coining up to Orangeburg to help a lot of chronic ollicc seekers not only to make but it) butler their bread. A geioel liver is always known by his appearance. A man who lives comfortably at home, has good din tiers, etc., will always show it in his person. Put there is another liver more important to man?it is the bad liver?the liver that should regulate the whole system.

Quite an excitement was created in our town oi .Veeluesdny morning by the runaway of Mr. Snin's team from near St raus' mill. The horses ran at full speed with the wagon, through Market street, then through Clover street, to the Railroad, and then up Railroad Avenue, being finally cheeked at the depot. The wonder was that, with all the vehicles on our streets, no damage was done to any, not even the wagon itself being in jure I. . Hill? . ? . <? i Our (pliet town came very near being visited with a serious confla gration on Tuesday night. Mr. d. S. Albergotti, after returning from the Democratic meeting, took up a book to read before retiring, placing a candle by him on a chair upon which he had thrown his clothing. Being fatigued, he fell asleep. In a short lime he was aroused by smoke ami Hnmes around him. Leaping up he gave an alarm, in the meantime gel ting a bucket of water ami extin guishing the llailies. <)ii exainina* tiou he found that his pants and coat on the chair were almost burnt up. the bottom of the chair burnt out, and the carpet caught on Ilm lloor where the candle had fallen. Hon. Harry Hammond, of Beech \ Island, .S. ('., Supervisor of Census for Second District of South Caro | I'm a, requests us to state that all ap plications for enumerations must set forth applicant's place of birth, pre sent legal residence and post oilier address: the principal facts of his education and professional or busi ness experience, including a state I meat of all National, State, County Municipal Olllces at any time held by him, ami the place ami nature of his present occupation. These ap plications must be in the hand writ ingot' the person applying, ami must I be so certitied \t\ himself, ami must be made fort hwit h. Ilou. Samuel Dibble has been nominated by the Middlepen Club, for t he ollicc of ('ounty ( 'hairman of the Democratic party. It is gene rally understood from the letter of declination of Capt. Dibble two years ago, (hat he Ims placed himself j under obligation to serve the party in lhi>. capacity in this campaign, ami if. as it is rumored, the present Chairman, Mr. Browning, refuses to consent to ic election, we" don't see how ( 'apt. Dibble can gel out of it. if he is so disposed. It is very certain somebody has to accept the olllee. As we have said before, it is a position of bard work, and grave responsibility, which no body is disposed willingly to assume. Of course, with one whose business is entirely incompatible with the duties of the ollicc, a declination is admissible*, but it ought not to lie declined by any one when the call of the parly is urgent and imperative merely on the plea of inconvenience, or because declining i^ fashionable. There is a duty which eve-ry Demo crat owes to his party which call not be ignored. We hope I he oilier will not go Irngging, bui I hat some one may be found who has leisure ami pal riot ism enough t?? lake it. ll will, indeed be distressing, ifwc have the same (lillictllty in tilling the nltle'C of < lei h of ('(mi l.

Hardly a week passes but w hat we are called upon to chronicle the drop ping; oil* of some weary pilgrim on the road side of life. One by one wo pass away. Young and old alike are out down by the sickle of the reaper death. This time we arc called upon to mourn the lossof our young citizen Henry McKcwn. He died on .Monday night, anil his fune ral services were performed on Tues day afternoon in the .Methodist Church by Kev. < >. A. Darby, a large concourse of friends having gathered to pay the hist tribute of respect to the memory of a hived one. .Mr. MeKewn was in the 22nd year of his a gi?, and a young man of great prom ise and excellent character. Ho had been suffering for some years with consumption, hut his death came suddenly in (he end. He leaves an aged mother and many relatives and friends to mourn his loss. The hand of Providence has fallen heavily upon this aillieted family. Hardly over a year ago a brother of the deceased was sudden ly cut down in the flower of youth, nqd now a weeping mother has been bowed down under another dispons.t t inn. Our heartfelt^sympathies are ex tended to the mourning ones whose solace and comfort can only ho found in 11 iin who ruloth in infinite love, and d.nelh all things well. The 1'ads bad u lively time of it al the precinct meeting in Orangohurg. They met on Thursday night near the jail, and eaiiie very nearly meet ing afterwards in tin- jail, as the re suit shows. The object of I he meet ing seems t<> have been :i Kind of caucus as to t be plans for t In* precinct meeting the next day. High words soon sprung- up between the St raker and Webster factions, and 11 nally the meeting broke up in a general row. The police whistle however dis persed the crowd. The next day the precinct meeting took place on the green near the Lutheran Church. Thompson, the proeihel chairman, called ihe meeting loonier. In going into permanent organization Web stor, Strnker and Thompson were nominated for permanent chairman. The vote being- taken, us is reported to us, Straker got 55 votes. Thompson 51, ami Webster 17. Thompson then, who is in the same faction with Web ster. turned over his votes to Web stor and declared Webster the chair man. Webster held the fort under the declaration of Thompson in spite of the vehement protestations of Straker. Strnker then seceded with his crowd to another part of the green, and thus two sets of delegates wore appointed. A NKWflHUL IN KlHiKFfKLD. At a meeting of the Hampton Democratic Club of Kdgclichl <'.
