Congress rc-nsscmblcd, after the Christmas holidays, on the sixth in stant, and entered earnestly upon the work before them. The Right Rev. Bishop IIowo, of the Protestant Episcopal Church, has appointed the 23d of this month for visiting the Orangeburg Church. Wte understand that the Baplist congregation at this place has called the Rev. W. A. Then ell, late of Camden, S. C, to the pastorale of their church, and that he has accept ed the Call. Scgau peas and strawberries, of this year's growing, have been odor ed for sale in Charleston. This is certainly remarkable for the be ginning of January, and shows what mild weather has prevailed during the present winter. The Hood Fund.?The News and\ Courier, of yesterday, published the j following t "We have received for this fund ten dollars from Dr. M. G. Sallcy, through the OrakgEiiunci Dkm- i qchat." The above amount was col- j lected by Dr. Sallcy and turned over to us. We are glad lo learn that the town council arc making preparation to place two or three lamps on Railroad Avenue.and a few others in different parts of the town. This improve ment is greatly needed and will add much lo the comfort, and safety of our citizens. We heard two gentlemen say that they were here as jurymen during tho May term of Court, and arc here again at this lime in the same capaci ty. The imposing of double public duty of this character ought lo be avoided if possible. It is a hardship few farmers are able lo bear. The Concert given at Bolivcr's Hall on Wednesday evening by Prof. R. J. Gozalcs was fairly attended by an appreciative audience. The music, vocal and instrumental, was line, and Wc suppose enjoyed b> those w ho ad mire a* baritone voice. The two lit tle boys sang quite creditably for their ages. The horse race which came off in Joiner's lane across the river on Tuesday last, resulted in a victory for the Mitchell horse. One of the horses after running through, bolted and ran into a buggy, upsetting the vehi cle, and doing it considerable dam ngc. The rider was thrown about twenty feet, but was not. seriously hurt. The Kingston Freeman tells of a "drummer" for a New York house Who called on a merchant and hand ed him a picture of his business card, Buying that he rep esentcd that es tablishment. Tho merchant examin ed it carefully, remarked that it was a fine establishment, nod returned it to the astonished man with a hope that he would soon be admitted into partnership. The Palmetto Yeoman says "unless the Northern stalwarts doubt the sincerity of the good people of Au gusta and Beaufort-, they must be convinced, against their will, that two Southern towns, at lcasl, arc thoroughly rcconstucted. It was not possible for Augusta, and Beaufort to go further than they did to prove to tho world that the South is forgclful and forgiving. At a regular communication of the Snell Lodge, No. 183, A. 1<\ M., held at the lodge room, Dec. 27, ?87'J, the following officers were elected to serve the ensuing Masonic year: II. L.

TilE Pomona Grange hold its quar terly meeting in tho basement of the Presbyterian Church on Saturday last. The usual quantity of business was transacted. Ladies, when making your pur chases please don't forget that Henry Kohn's Bazaar has some good bar gains left owing to the backward sea son, which will bo sohl 2? per cent, less than before. The down accommodation train on the South Carolina Railroad failed to run on Monday last, owing lo a colli-, sion with another a few -miles from Columbia. Several persons were in convenienced by being forced to re main over. The best receipt for going through life in an exqusile way, with beauti ful manners, is to feel that everybody, no matter how rich or how poor, needs all the kindness they can get from others in this world. How few of us remember this. Great excitement prevails in At lanta on account cf the finding, at 12 o'clock, of the partially dissected body of a female in the old soap fac tory building on Houston street, in the neighborhood of the Medical Col logo. Tho corpse was found by a colored boy, and the negroes arc flock iog to tho place in scores. We learn from our farmers that they have pretty generally hired suf ficient labor for the present year's opcralionc at reasonable rotes, and that the colored people arc disposed to go lo work at once preparing for the next crop. This is encouraging in the face of so much moving and breaking up of homes. Ose night last week a burly negro entered the dwelling ol Mr. \V. J. Faircy bear Branchvillc and lighting a lamp entered the sitting room, and afterward the bed room in which the family were sleeping. Mrs. Faircy awaking and, seeing the burglar in a few feet of tho bod, aroused her husband. The negro probably alarm ed made his escape before his arrest could be affected. Mr. Faircy has not been in the habit of locking his doors, but since this occurrence ho has bought a gun and is enquiring for a bull-dog. J. K. Black max, Esq.?We had the pleasure ol meeting this gentle man one day this week, who is hero in attendance upon Court as stenog rapher, Mr. Black man is connected with the Hems and Court* >\ and his faithful reports of the current events of the day have given him a reputa tion enjoyed by few men of his age. Pleasing and entertaining in manners ho wins friends wherever he goes, whilst his read}' pen and torso stylo secures the admiration of strangers. As a newspaper reporter ho has few equals in the South and certainly none in this state. Ox salesday Peter Ashbj*, colored, stole a horse from John C. Brown, another colored man, and was caught with the animal in his possession. Quite a number of colored persons collected on the spot, and, under tho influence of excitement, had deter mined lo apply lynch law to the cul prit and swing him lo the first con venient tree. Mr. S. E. Bozard hap pening to pass in the meantime suc ceeded in pursuading the enraged crowd from carrying into execution their hasty design. Peter was brought to town and lodged in jail to await the action of the law. A mono the Christmas gaycties, the sociable at the Olivcros house is re membered as not the least notable. It occurred on Friday night last, and those who attended enjoyed the occa sion so much, that the mind reverts lo it as a green and ever blooming oasis amidst the frosts and freezes of i winter of recollection. The capti vating, exhiliraung dance was par ticipated in by the beauteous belles und gallant beaux fur towards "the night's sweet noon," and when the clock told tho hour for leaving the joyous scene, none wont homeward bound with more cxhiliration inspir ed by the pleasant occasion, than our "young man," who solemnly afflrms that the sweets of its remembrance will prove a happy antidote for the bitters of life during the next twelve months. I? II ?nil II I umillHIMIB.? !? 111 I II III III St. Matthews1 Concert.?On Tues day evening last, by special invita tion, vvc started in company with Dr. Waiter Wolfe and Mr. John Danlzlbr on a visit to Middle St. Matthews with a view of attending the concert to be given at tho St. Matthews' Academy on the last day of the old year. Spending the night mo3t pleas antly at the Doctor's home, we start ed early next morning for tho con cert. Already quite a crowd had as sembled and active preparations were being made for the day's enjoyment. That excellent lady, Mrs. Mol lie A. Rush, who seemed to be the leading spirit of the movement, and others of equal aeal in the cause, perfected their arrangements nnd opened the doors at 12 o'clock noon. The room was soon tilled to its utmost capacity by the anxious crowd and the exer cises commenced with the popularsong of "Old Black doe," sung by Mr. J. Dantzler and Miss Augusta Ilolman; Miss Lizzie Chapman accompanying on the piano. Tue "Gipsey Coun tess" was rentiereil in a most olfec trve manner by Mr. W. L. Glaze and Miss Annie Rast. "Shew-Fly" was artistically performed by Messrs. T. McMichaol and ,J. Ilolman on the violin ; so also were "Evening Star Waltz," "Sharum" "Nelly Gray" and "Dixie" by the same performers. "Grand Father's Clock" by Mr. J. Danlzler and Miss Augusta Ilolman was full of the sweet planlivcncss so so characteristic ol that ballad. "Come, Where My Love L?ica Dreaming" was charmingly sung by Miss Annie Rust and Miss Lizzie Chapman. Rut the song of the occa sion was "Dearest May" by Mr. and Mrs. Dave Rush, who literally brought down the house in their inim itable style. The tableaux scenes by by Miss Sallic Wolfe ami Miss An nie Rast constituted quite a charming I feature of the Concert; and old j Black Joe, in the person of Mr. Jim tnic Huiglcr, carried one back to the days of lite old log cabin in the lane. After spending two hours in the en joyment of these pleasant and profit able exercises, the crowd were invit ed down to partake of a most excel lent dinner, not without depositing, however, a ''quarter" at the door. Of course we entered into this ar rangement with a vim and called for our share of the good things which were so bountifully supplied as to cause some misgivings as to our abil ity for the task. Looking around and seeing others in a like condition, we addressed ourself to the huge pile which grew astonishingly less the longer wc sat. The inevitable ballot box was brought into requisition and Miss Annie Ilolman was selected as the most popular young lady and Mis. Mollio Rush, the most popular marri ed lady. MUees Mamie Tillcy and Simmic Bait* did good serv'ec at the fruit and lemonade stands which made quite a contribution to the gen eral fund. Indeed all connected with the enterprise devoted themselves to success of the occasion and the result, which was Silo net profit, proves how well each performed his part. The Concert was given in aid of the Methodist parsonage and it was in deed gratifying to sec how well the different denominations worked to gether in this laudable undertaking. This had no 1 ttlc to do wita the gratifying success accomplished. How Does He Do It.?No one will dcuht the fact that C. 1). Kortjohn is a real living prodigy ; else how could he accomplish so many wonders in merchandizing? Commencing early in life as a clerk for his brother-iu law, and leading a sedate and quiet and unpretentious career, no one dreamed in those days that he would before 1S80 become one of the most dashing and thorough-going mer chants of the times. Yet who doubts the fact now ! Who is gifted with audacity enough to induce him to say that Kortjohn's stoic is not one of the indispensable institutions of our county? Does not everyone know him and his stoic? Fellow citi/.ens! at the beginning of this year commence right and you will be more ! ban apt to continue so. Buy your goods where you can get them cheapest. Ruy ihem of Kortjohn and you will save many a dime. Heed our advice and grow rich. a "Don't you want to sec Gen. Giant?" was asked of one of our far mers the other day. In answer to this question the following significant anecdote was related ; Before . the war Mr. G. ovcrsccd a neighboring plantation in the Fork, and was very exacting and olten cruel to the hands. Since tho war Mr. G. removed to Texas, where he still lives. My neighbor, Mr. P., having occasion to write to Mr. G. asked Cuffec, an old slave who had experienced G's. treatment, what message he should send to Mr. 0. for him? After some ibought, Cttflcc replied : Tell him to go finder." Hall's ? Vegelublo Sicilian Hair Rcnewcr. The gcnuioc article hns a prorictnry stamp running over the cork of the bottle.

The Spartonburg Herald of the Till instant, says: "Wc owe our thanks to our friends of the Orangc b g Democrat for the compliment they paid us in copying without quo lalion marks in the last issue of their estimable paper, i woof ou^hist week's locals. Wc ought, perhaps, lo com plain that they stole from U3 in such a style, but our old associations with friend Sims make us w illing to accord him that right; and then, too, it touches our vanity to see ourselves copied after."
