A PROGRESSIVE INSTITUTION, j

some ol the methods ol' the
South Carolina College are peculiar.

ships in this institution, and we i
are further informed 111 at lie w.is J

Owing to the continued rainy |
weather which we have been hav-;
ing this season the crops in this j
section me very back war i. but the j
hopes of the larmers have bright - j

dry weather.
We are very sorry to report
that Mrs. YV. J. Clarkson has been
quite sick for the past week, but j(
it is thought that she is now slow-,
ly improving and we trust she I
will soon be restored to her usual
health.
The health of our community
is generally good, although there
have been a few cases ol lever reported.
Dr. S. W* Gamble has gone to!

also revised and the number
thereon decreased about 1.000. j
Now, in view of these facts, it.i
seems that each pensioner should !
have received at least double the j
amount he got last year. Instead;
of this they were given oulv al
