The Crops.?We gather most en couraging reports from every quarter] of the country as to the growing] crops. In some sections the pros pect was never better than at this| time?good stands and all crops growing off'finely. The high seasons now prfc.J'Ai^ing will, however, demand I increased vigilance and activity or| Gen. Green wilj win the field and rob the farmer of bis spoils. A Word fob tue Clerks.?We notice that the merchants of several of oor leading country towns have de cided to close their stores at ? o'clo "P. M., in order that their clerks may have su?joient tjaie to rest and re vcruit ^rom the fatigue incident to the excessively hot season upon which we are entering* We would respectfully suggest a Bitnjlar course to the busi jness men of Orangeburg. The dull ness of the season and the light busi-| ness trans action 8 alter .6 o'clock will entail but little loss to the merchants,] while n relaxation from work at that hour will yield untold comfort to the clerks and their families.' What say our merchants? Practice.?On Tuesday last the Young Americas were out on parade with "Uncle Joe" and presented quite n creditable appearance. Notwith standing the excessive heat, the mem bers performed tihe .different ovolu tions with spirit and precision. The race of three hundred yards with the .reel and hose, including the unreel* jug, the attaching of hose to engine and the throwing of water, was made ?in two .minutes und forty-live seconds. This is certainly a creditable show ing for young men totally unaccus tomed to such work, and with a rea sonable amount of practice they may equal the Charleston Qremen by per forming the same evolutions in ono and a quarter minutes. Brevities.-*?Keep cool, if you Can. Mr. Ed. Slater is gone West for horses. The weather has,been quite sJUow ery during i,ho past week.

We learn that the census taker? arc at work throughout the county and -^yill probably make a creditable showing for Orangeburg when the count is completed. The round trip to Cincinnati, by excursion ratec, is only 827, which ia doubtless an effective inducement for some of our citizens to attend the Democratic Convention.

Ppstmaster Webster was indefatig able in his efforts to ferret out the mail robber who bad been operating to some extent on the mails from his ofllo. He deserves the thanks of the public.

That staunch old paper, the Green ville Enterprise and Mountaineer, has entered upon its twenty-sixth vpl |ume. Its genial editor, J. C. Biiky, E^q., is an old friend ol happier days, land we are glad to know that he is prospering. Robert Rickcnbacker, colored, after returning home on Friday evening from work in bis usual health was taken quite ill about bed time uud died suddenly before medical aid could he secured. Cause of death not known. The summer days are here, and the perspiring editor dreams of green fields and babbling brooks and soft breezes laden with the fragrance of June roses?and awakens to the sad fact that there is such a thing as a composing room and a horde of prin ters hungry for "copy." On Sunday last tho Commencement exercises of Clafliu University opened by a sermon from Bishop Warren be fore a large audienoo.in the College chapel. Several of our citizens at tended to bear the Bishop on this his tirst visit to our State. The sermon teas fully up to the reputation of the preacher, eloquent, profound and spiiitual throughout. The Northern Methodists were certainly fortunate in securing Bishop Warren for the Episcopacy. Monday tho examina tion of the classes .be^an find ended on Tuesday. Mouday evening Hon. Samuel Dibble, of our town, delivered the aunual address on the subject of popular .education. Notwithstanding the unfavorable evening the chapel was crowded ;t,o \ts utmost capacity, and wo learn the address was one of best ever delivered on that puhjeet-r taking our Ncrthern visitors captive by foice. The speaker was applauded frequently and was most happy in the effect upon his audience. It is thought this able address will have a most beneficial influence in behalf of popular education in this county and wherever it may be read. Mr. Dibble has given the subject considerable thought and the views expressed on this occasion are doubtless the fruit of potienL study and calculated to benefit the cause of education wherev er they may reach. Tuesday morn ing was appointed for,thecontest in declamation for the regular prizes of the in tituiion. Tho young men gen erally acquitted themselves hand somely and gave promise of au hon orable future, Wednesday afternoon at S o'clock the commencement exercises proper were had in the chapel in the pres ence of a packed audience. Every available seat and standing room about the doors, windows and pas sageway was filled with anxious spec tators from the adjoining communi ties, which eircumst ijcc alone proves what a deep interest the colored people feel in the education of their youths. After prayer, President Cookc called the young men out in their appointed order, each of whom mani fested a trainning of mind and body that docs credit to the institution. The speeches were-original and gen erally well written showing earnest study and very commcnd.able prafi cenqy in the various branches involv ed. Dignity pf position and grace in delivery were very marked through out the exercises. The Latin Saluta tory by A. W. Whaley and 14?? d-nn\r .Oration by J. S. Cooper were very entertaiu iig 10 mu uuuience anil cred itable to tho young speakers, We make special mention of the speeches of J. H. Jones, W. L. Bulkley, M. Blakeley, E. J. Crawford and H. D. Witiams as giving evidence of su perior attainment and careful sJLudy, not, however, without recognizing the merit, of the Other young men, all of whom did well and reflected credit alike upon teacher and student. The address of Miss Hattie Dickson was chase and well prepared. The vali dictpry by Miss A. L. Jackson de serves more than a passing notice. Such sentiment can only come from a well trained mind and a sensitive lueart. Miss Jackson is certainly gifted beyond girls of her race nnd age. Deplomas were awarded to H. D. Williams, Misses Hattie Dickson and A. L. Jackson graduates of this year and to Miss S. E. Middlcton, a graduate of last year. Prizes were awarded to Scipio Moore, on Declamation ; M. Blakcly. on Greek ; C. Sanders, Nancy San ders, and H. D. Williams, on Rheto ric; J. H. Jones, Nancy Sanders, A. U. Black and J. P. Brown, on the Bible; J. H. Jones and Thomas Simms, on Theology; and the Con ference prize to A. H. Whaley. After the benediction by Rev. A. Webster we left, not, however, without wishing Dr. Cookc and his corp of professors. God-spend in pursuing iue nobje work in which they are engaged. -? Round Dances.?Here is what the Atlanta (Ga.) Oonsiitution says on the subject of round dances, which we commend to the attention of our young lady readers : "A young man watched the waltzes at a certain dan cing school for some time last night, and then asked somebody to tell him why it was that the young ladies who submitted to hugging in public would not permit it in private, whereupon a bright fellow remarked that that had not been bis experience." Food for thought!, Compound Exthact Buchu, com posed of buchu leuves, dandelion root, acetate potash, juniper berries, pa.eiza brava, and calinsosia root. All of which arc highly valued diur ctics, kidney stimulants and depur ants. The failure of the actons of the kidneys is a source of many dis tressing discuses. This medicine produces a hearty action of the kidneys, removes from tho blood the urea and urio acid, which if allowed to remain and accumulate would in duce rheumatism, gooty affections, pains in back and loins. This valua ble medicine is for sale by Dr. J. G. Wahnamakor. Price 7? cents per bot tle, a.

We hope this enter prise'will receive the.univereal patron age of our citizens.

Look Back.?Gray-haired pilgrim, bending low over desk, your brain burdened with cares and perplexities of business pursuits?let your thoughts escape'from the narrow cpn lines of your littlo tread-nijil, and wander back to boyhood's almost forgotten sunny hours. Do you not reeall to mind the little ejngbam hud kerchief the hands of a fond mother wrought? How it raised grave doubts in your mind aa to whether you should wipe your poor, cold-in fested uoso ou the edge of the school house seat, or file it off with the stiflly starched folds of that gingliam haurd kei chief! Don't you remember it? Ah, those boyhood daysl They'll never come again. Siiame ?rOu Monday afternoon of last week, during the bearing of a case before the Inlendaut and War dens of the town of Hamburg, a white woman named Sally Sbinall, made use of offensive language and so interrupt ed .the court that she was adjudged in contempt and ordered to be taken to the jockup. The town marshal, nam ed Creighton Maljjeny, took charge of her and-started with Irer to the guard ??oUwe?n %M^rjN*r,?6fro^ which she died on Friday, Tho m^v shai and his friends say that she re sisted violently and h.o was obliged to strike her. The friends of the woman say that she did not resist, but mere ly sat down on the ground and refus ed to go and that thereupon the ofii cer struck her. Letter Carrier Caught.?Quite a sensation has been created in fashion ion able colored society in Charleston, by the arrest of W. Qr. Lawton, a colored letter earlier, on' Saturday night last. The matter has disclosed a most alarming condition of things in the postal service. It appears that during the past five years a regular system of plundering has beep .carri ed on with such consumalo skill as to evade every attempt at detection The total losses during that time are estimated at Ir.oni eight to ten thous and dollar's. A trap was set, and he was finally detected through tho means of a decoy letter. Quito a j number of letters from this place have been lost from time to time, and it will be pleasing to those who have suffered to know that the rasea} bus been caught. ANDREW 0.

The Sensation of the Periodl &ts??u?/gte l>ut Tarno I HARD TIMES BE CONS I . o. HAVING been watching for some time past the, financial pulse of tbe country and U;o. ever ..varying events of the trading worjd V'i.th .1. view to the in crease or decrease oar'weje.kly purchases, we are prepared to announce"to o,ur num erous patrons that qur .Investigation of these subjects has been ?perfectly satisfac tory and that wo have as a consequence forwarded larger orders than over be fore to our New York agency. The year 1880 therefore begins with flattering prospects for farmers; mechan ics and all other lilborers alike. The financial pulse of tbo country is steadily Improving and haying telunied almost to a hard money basis, vv; shall gradu ally but turely' recover our.forincr prea-,, tige and the so long declining prosperity " of our beautiful Southern .land. Being firmly impressed with the.fore-shadow ing^ of these approacldng.evcnhj we have made arrangejuejitseomiuensiuate With the demands jihev will 'disclose. Our Agent In New York Is already in receipt ot our instructions directing 1dm to be on the alert for every sule and fail ure as well aB every bouse tottering on the brink of bankruptcy, so that he,.with cash in hand may rake Jn eyery bargain and thus er.aide .us during the present year not only to Increase our own re sources, but to become also a never changing source of assistance to lour friends by selling them goods Cue beiov the wholesale murketof New York. It was the credit system that paralytcd onr Industries In the past and caused so many interests to droop and wither while every article needed for family consump* tlon doubled in value. Thus while labor \yu_Rinadequately compensated, goods of every description approached almost fab ulous' prices and'tbe'dally sweat ot a man's brow barely .obtaio^d for himself and family the commonest necessaries of life. Too much credit will always oreaTo demands greater than tbe sources of sup ply will satisfy, hence everything takes an upward tendency under its operations. I On the other handcush transactions will make the supply larger than the demand and consequently goods fall to bottoui prices when this rule prevails. We pay .cash .for ?11 our goods before they leave the place bought from. Hence our ability .(independent of our unrivaled facilities for buying) to outstrip and un dersell all our competitors. The men .chant who tbuys on time, ,(and who of them doesn't) not.only has to pay the high est prices for what I hey get but also the additional percenUige added ou all credit sales. Now all this oornes out of the con sumer, the man who patronizes the time merchant at home. It will at once be perceived that the diflerence between us is vast indeed, and that the buyer on credit system cannot purchase goods at market prices, while we, by paying cash, get the most extraordinary bargains at a large discount ou wholesale cash prices. It is therefore quite easy tor us to sell below other merchants and guarantee perfect satisfaction iu every case. Our system Is one of our own, nud has many advantages which we shall not ex plain, but let it Millie that the larger portion of the benelits arising from it are reaped by our friends and patrons, and Py: ,lt wie payp established a reputation near and.dear to us. With honesty, fkir dealing, quick sales and .small profits as our watchwords we have conquered the demon of high pikes and forced from him the acknowledgement that h e has been systematically swindling and de frauding the people. We have demonstrated to thousands in.this and other counties that it Is pos sible when dealing with u fair aud honor? able merchant whojjuys strictly for cash, to purchase goods at prices which wero mirrjept before the war. To buy aud sell goods does liqt necessarily imply that to o.o successful one must either be a cou jscienieless extortioner or, u ?????;?... ?Sj,,.i_iL. m? uiKimy und ennoble bis profession or he can sink it into iniquity and trail its courtly garments through cesspools of deceit, dishonesty, fraud and double distilled misrepresentations. Ho pan be a JLdessing or a curse to his coun try. As for us "^ye prefer a good name w,lth a slow'opt steady Increase In busi ness to the gouging process which makes one merchant rich to-day und a thousand poor farmers" penniless and breadless to morrow. Ours is the true plan, by adopting it you avoid the Scylla of .credit on the one side and the Cliurybdis of a leln execu tion on the other. To trade with us Is to insure satisfaction, Increase your wealth and general prosperity. Week after week during ihe present year we shall spread daily upon our counters a stock of goods as varied us the leaves of the forest, 4. cordial invitation is extended to every'one 'who rc.ids this circular to give ys a cull, no trouble to show goods or answer questions. We will sell lor one dollar cash what you will pay three for iu October If you buy on credit. We ouy direct from the cheapest markets in America for ca>di less the large discount, and can and will sell as low as the wholesale merehauts of Charleston, New York or Baltimore, and to those who favor us with" their reg ular custom we offer ns rare 'inducements as were ever offered in tnis bi'any fJtber community Our goods arrive weekly and must be sold, iook to your interest und call on us when you visit town. Farmers, luok to your own welfare, i you who have sunk low aud lower each succeeding year while the middle men around you have grown rich in'jbomfdria and wealth, you have barely lived'by working from sun to gut) the year round, while others bays added thousands to their already plethoric treasures, by sell ing on creuk to you in the spring Sud collecting in October and Nobeinber'iho sweat stained profits of many a mcrcijesB bargain. Let oiir farmers eseh'ew this in future and learn to' watch as well as pray?let ibein breajc hopVlhe bid beuten paths of credit and ruin, and demand an equivalent for their money. Let th,eiu aspire to higher and greater achieve ments.
