?V T*?i>oi* foi* 1.1 to Pcopl?!. oranoeuur?, S. C OUT. 1 1880. Keel* to tue Right.?Will not the police make the wagons and other ve hicles keep to the right ? The streets ?t this season aro a jam, and every one should follow Ibis rule. Lost, between Orangeburg and the residence of C. G. Dantzler, Esq., a Badge formed with the Greek letters chi and phi on gold, and set with rubies and pearls. The fluder will be rewarded by leaving the same at the residence'of C. G. Dantzler Esq., or at this tffllce. Ordination.?After the morning service at the Presbyterian Church on last Sabbath an impressive ordina tion sermon was made by the Rev. J ? D. A. Brown, and Capt. John A* Hamilton was ordained a ruling el* der, and Capt. B. W. Izlnr a deacon of the church. _... . ._ Our thanks are due Capt. T. K. Legare, of Fort Motte, for favors conferred while there .on Saturday last. Capt. Legate, we learned, is the only Gentile merchant at the Fort, and is competing successfully with the proverbial shrewdness of his j Hebrew neighbors. Miss Barbara Pound, aged 89 years and one of the oldest iuhaditant on Bull Swamp, is lying sick with a severe type of fever. We trust the moans enployed for her recovery may be blessed with success and this wor thy octogenarian may yet number her hundredth year; We call the attention of our readers to the new advertisement of Mr. A. F. H. Dukes of Rranchvillc. He has on liahd a large stock of fresh and fashionable goods in every department which he proposes to sell as low as the}' can be bought in any town of the State. Give him a call and cxuiuine ' for yourself. j We had the honor on Tuesday eve ning last of a serenade by the Edi sto Baud. The remarkable profici ency and skill of these gentlemen have long been a source of pride to our citizens ; we, with others, wish for them still higher attainment in this useful as well as elegant art. As an institution of our town we arc proud of iL_ It is said by those who heard it that Boliver's speech at Fort Motte last Saturday was the tamest affair possible for a campaign etfoit. We nre glad that the expos* made by the Democrat of his blood and thunder proclivities has had such a line ef fect. Hereafter the King Radical of l/raugeburg will be a wiser if not a better man. Campmeeti n g time is at hand and our citizens of several section of the county will pass through a scasou of rare religious ^enjoyment, Indian Fields is now in progress; Boiling Spring will begin next Thursday: Union, in Lower St. Matthews, on the Thursday following, and Limestone the week after. Wo hope to attend some of these, especially Union. Death in the Humes is easy com pared to the tortue of dyspepsia, headache, rheumatic pains, disorder ed liver, bowels, stomach and kid neys, billions fever, helchiugs, sleep lessness, nervousness and other dis tressing complaints that drugs will not cure, but will yield at once to Dr. Flagg'* improved Liver and Stomach Pud. As will be scon by a notice in another column, the firm of J. Strauss' & Co, has been dissolved by mutual consent. Messrs. Strauss and Street will continue the grist ami rice mill ing business at the old stand, and Mr. J. II. Fowle8 the saw mill busi ness on the Bell Well road three miles from town. Those gentlemen aro all live, energetic business men, and we hope that success will attend them in their now relations as it did in the old. Our young friends. Messrs. B. II. Moss, II. S. Wannamaker, Abrain Summers and G. C. Summers left during the present week for Spartan burg to attend Wofford College. The first two were prepared at Sheridan's Classical School and are now in the Sophomore Class ; the last two,sons of Dr. J. W. Summers, were prepared by Mr. J. B. O'N. Ilolloway at St, Mat thews academy. W'c bespeak for those young gentlemen a successful College course and an honorable po sition afterwards in the rank of edu cated men. Sek? Cotton.?During the past month the col ton house of a citizen in town was broken open and robbed three times of seed cotton. The thieves were cosily tracked down town to the neighborhood ol Russell and Broughtou streets, where the many wagon ti arks effaced the posi tive plnco where it was sold the last time. Seed cotton is on at tractive, item ot this season of the year, and if it will bo bought up the police should bo on tho look out lor the dark hour venders.

The regular monthly meeting of the Woman's Missionary Society ol, Orangeburg Station will be held in I St. Raul's Church this afternoon at 5 o'clock. Some of our exchanges are advis ing the farmers lo hold their cotton until next spring. It may pay them to do so, but we would not venture to advise holding it.

Give bun a j call. We congratulate the few "unen gaged" young ladies in town that the hot weather has passed without any of them being "courted" to death. Great fears were entertained on this score last summer, but it seems they were groundless. Those who suffer from nervous irri gation, itching, uneasiness, and the discomfort that follows from on enfee bled and disordered state of tho sys j tcm, should take Ayer's Sarsaparille and elense the blood. Purge out the ! lurking distemper that undermines the ' health, and constitutional vigor will j return. A Joint Discussion.?lb was uscer tai.ied by our leaders during last week Hint the Radicals had plauncd j and prepared to hold u mass meeting! at Fort Motte oil Saturday following,1 and that speakers from Charleston and perhaps clsewere would be prcs-j cut. Arrangements wore immediate-i ly made to have a creditable repre sentation of Democrats present and speakers to divide the time if nllow-i ed by the managers of the meeting lo[ do so. Quite a crowd, therefore, oft both whi'c and colored Democrat as-j sein bled on the ground from every J section of the adjoining country ; and,j when the hour arrived for speaking,: it was found that the Radicals but! slightly outnumbered the Democrats.! When the down train, which brought Mackey, Taft, E. A. Webster ami Bolivcr* arrived, the Radical portion of the crowd repaired to Hie church one mile distant and the Democrats j remained at the depot. After a con sultation between the lcadors it was determined to send a committee, of which Capt. F. M. Waunamaker was chairman, to nqnest a division of time and to report the result at once. This request was positively refused ami in such a manner as to impress the committee with the fact that if the Democrats took any part atalljifc would lie as quiet listeners to! Radical slang and slander. Another consultation resulted in udelermina-j lion to attend anil hear what was to be said. According by quite a number of buggies and horsemen took up the) line of march and appeared on the ground just as Mackey had well com menced ids hariaugue. That the dus ky crowd were displeased and knew not well how to act in the emergency was noticeablo on Hie conliunnues of speakers and hearers. Taft however was cquui to the occasion and came to! Col. John Haskell with the statement that there was some mistake in the matter and that if the Democracy wished to be heard an arragementj might be made for an hour. This; was accepted by Col. Haskell and himself, Gen. J. F. Izlar and Solicitor! Jervey were invited to the stand. After some bluster, occasioned cvi-| dently by the relief from their recent; awkward position, Mackey proposed to begin over and the speakers were introduced in the following order: Col. John C. Haskell, Mr. Jervey, VI. W. M. Mackey, Gen. J. F. Izlar and Taft. Mr. Rolivcr, we learned, had made a lame talk before the Demo- j oratio party arrived. The dill'ereuce betweeu these speeches was very marked- On the: Democratic side there was an air of truth and honest sincerity with which! the most igno?ant colored man in the crowd could not fail to be impressed. The tone of the speeeches wna?cleva ted and neverjonce descended topuri Ity bombast, or unwarranted ridicule, while on the Radical side there was the same old spread eagle ranting about the Democratic war to break up the government, about the cruelty and great wrong of human slavery,' about the great Republican party feeing the negro race from bondage, about the Democrats refusiug even until this late day to ncknowledgs the equal rights of the colored people, and i about the failure of the Democratic party to make good a single promise made in 187C. i We notice again that out of the two hundred, and this was all inclu ding men, women and children, color-; ed persons around the stand, not more than twenty live did the hol'owing, while the olhcts were ihoughful and evidently not satisfied either with the sincerity of Mackey and Talt or the, logic of their arguments. The meet-! iug, intended by the projector as a j great rally in this canter of Radical ism, was a complete failure. Out of, a thousand colored people in easy reach of Fort Motto not more than a hundred and fifty were out, the rest were from Lowisviile as the crowd in j the train that evening proved. I The want of enthuisastn anil the lack ol interest manifested here are proofs enough that the Radicals party ' has lost its lioiu upon the colored I people. Roliver's shot gun policy, Webster's pulpit exhibitions, Mack ey's canting and Tuft's wholesale abuse fail to draw the crowd or eon li<il the action of the mass. ; I County Campaign,?The cnthusi : asm, begun ntGlcalon's store has in creased as the campaign party pro gressed on their appointed round. Since our last icport rousing mcet ' ings have been held at St. Matthews, i Fine Grove, Hull's mill, Ayers shop and Rrnnchvillc. At each place lion. M. F. O'Connor made charac teristic speoches coming fully up to , his former reputation us n stump.speck cr. Solicitor Jervey, (ion. J. F. lz . lar, Hon. S. Dibble, Mr. C. G. Dantz ler, Dr. J. W. Summers, Col. M. I. Browning, H. G. Fredrick and Mar j shall Jones and others contributed j largely to the interest and enthusi asm of the campaign by eloquent speeches and appeals to our citizens Gen. Izlar Hon. S. Dibble and H. G. j Fredrick,colorcd,spoke at very nearly every appointment and will be prom , incntly connected with the glorious victory to be achieved in November. The good work will go on until the election and then Radicalism will be ' forever dead and our country com* I plclcly redeemed. j_ Why don't you ndesrtise? Flui.?About ten o'clock on Fri day evening last, the alarm of fire was given and a general rush made by our citizens in tbo direction of the j light. A barn on the lot of Mr. I). Louis was found to bo on fire and rapidly spreading to the adjoining building, The Young Americas had tUeir stcamor promptly on tho spot. and sullicient steam generated by tbe ! time tbe hose could be stretched. With Messrs. Strauss and Street at the engine and Mr. Henry Kobn in charge ol' the firemen the progress of j tbe llaaics was arrested, aud, by well j directed efforts, finally conquered, j Too much praise cannot be given the entire department, including tbe Elli otts, who did brave service in pulling dowu tbe burning bouses and other-' wise aiding the Young Americas, und to the colored companies, who did ? their full duty. It is generally con ceded that if .it had not been for the steamer several thousand dollars j worth of property would have been destroyed by this Ore. It broke out; in a cluster of old wooden buildings and was rapidly spreading towards the business portion of the town when the Young America began operations, and in filteen minutes the crisis was past and our town saved. Tins no ble work ought forever to shut the I mouths of every one who heretofore doubled the propiiety and wisdom: oi purchasing a steamer. The houses ; burned were a barn and stables of Mr. Louis, and outbuildings and a , at able of Mr. W. Sain. The loss will amount to live or six hundred dollars. No insurance.
