C, oa the 17th" of this month. Miss'Adele Kennedy, who for months past baa been cultivating an attachment for Old ??orth Carolina, returned home a few days since to the delight of her many friends. School boys and girls are now enjoying the vacation, and are making big calculations, when the season is in full blast, as to their capacity for watermelons. We'are in receipt of a communication from Mr. C. H- Moise, describing the invigorating Influences of Smrthville, 2f. C, which has been crowded out for the last two issues. Mr. Seil 0*Donnell, travelling agent for the -./Wholesale House of F. W. Wagener, of i Charleston, and", also one of the handsomest j commercial tourists in the State, called to see ! ns yesterday. It reminded us of old times to ! have a pleasant chat with our congenial friend;. There will be ? match game of Base Ball oa Joly 12th- between the Providence nine, and the PalmettoesofSomter, on tbe grounds of :e former?game to be called at 10 o'clock. number of persons in the Ccnnty who Registered is 4,724. There is a petition -Legislature, asking extension of Ton: account of lost time.

G- Kennedy his lot next to the ! Planters Warehouse, and expect to build-a I fl ne brick store anjgime._ Ralph Waldo Emerson said : "The man j who basa thousand friends has not a frier.? > to spare.** Ralph knew whereof he spoke, j for he had in mind "these local candidates." [ The Hatch Game of Base Ball on last j Thursday between tbe Pa?raettoes, of Camden, and the JSurekas of this pl:ice: stood at the end of the ninth inning 18 to 15 in favor of tbe'latter. . Mr. T>+ K. Briggs," the efficient young drug gist wbo. bas been with Dr. China for some time past, left on yestenday for his home in l Blackv?l?e. Mr. Briggs has many friends Tiere,and it is their wish that circumstances will so" result as to make Sumt?r his ''local habitation." The .closing exercises of Miss Florence Burst's School, at the Public School Build ing, on last Tuesday, was an occasion of much pleasure to all present. The pro gramme, consisting, of recitations, declama tions and awarding of presents, was carried out with much credit to the scholars and . honor to their worthy and efficient teacher. We see by an exchange that it is rumored that-Oscar-Wilde will wed a Boston girl. We hope that the change, afte* tbe nuptials, from a diet of lilies and son-flowers to that of | Boston-Grub and tbe experience of other real, ities will not^ollapse this aesthete. Thet?ordon Light Infantry, of Winnsboro, have written to tbe Richland Volunteers of Colombia, says the Palmetto Yeoman, that the invitation to join in the celebration of the an niversary of tbe Volunteers on the 8th of An '< gust has .been unanimously accepted. Infor mation has been received that the Su m ter Light Infantry will also be present. It is asserted over and over that anxiety I shortens life, but when a chap sees another fellow feeding bis girl on sand witches at a picnic is be going to sit down and bid his sou! be calm ? Not by a-boot iack. ' Some of the Georgia papers oppose Mr. Stephens for Governor. They say "they want a Governor with beard and babies." When people see a man advertise they know be is a busiuess man and his advertise ment claims that he is not above business, but anxious to do it. Customers, like sheep, are gregarious, and flock where they see others go. If nobody else "were engaged in the same business, it would be important to j tradesmen and dealers to advertise in the paper, because people are tempted to buy what they read of. But others are engaged _^jjt^ie same business, and even if tbey do not advertise, it becomes tbe more important for you to do so; if they advertise, it becomes doubly important. Candidates. Col. F. M. Mellett, it will be seen, is an nounced as a candidate for re-election to the office of County Commissioner.. It is F. J. j?ayes, who is announced as a candidate for the Legislature, and not J. A., as published last week. We are sorry the mistake occurred; but the "deril" refuses to take tbe blame, and suggests to the "friends" of candidates to write plainly when they send in their announcements. Teacher??Mr. A. and Mr. ?. were candi dates for Congress. There were 2,045 votes cast for Mr. A. and Mr. B. got as many more, .?wice as many more, and one vote and a half.

The final examination of the pupils of the 'Sumter Institute began on the 26th uh., and continued during three days. This examina tion was supervised by a -xoruittee of rren tle?en who at its close made the following report : XEPORT OF TEE COMMITTEE OF EXAMINATION FOR THE YEAR 1882. The undersigned baring been requested to be present at the examinations which formed the closing exercises of this Institute for the year 1882, desire hereby to express our sin cere convictions based upon personal obser v^5n, "That this Seminary affords and guarantees to the community in which it is located, and to the entire section of country within range of its benefits, amp'e facilities for the mental, moral and physical training of our daughters." The teachers we find to be faithful, pains taking and efficient. The pupils have been I taught: not crammed. If we were allowed to place a motto over the door of this Institute, it would be "Good and Honest work done here." With hearty congratulations to the very worthy Principals and their associates for their successful conduct of this Seminary through another Collegiate year, and with warm commendation of the pupils, all of whom acquitted themselves creditably, and some notably, We subscribe ourselves, j. s.

Oa Tuesday evening a Calisthenic exhibi tion was given at the Institute to which a number of patrons and friends were invited.

McKay, and one essay, tha'- >f Miss Bossard, by Rev N. W. Edmunds. The Essays were productions of consid?ra- | ble merit and attest the high order of icstruc- { tion imparted at this excellent institution. Dr. Juakin's address was a masterly effort? oae of the most brilliaut that has ever been j delivered here on a similar occasion. . j Gov. Luke Blackburn, of Kentucky, j professed religion at a revival in the i Frankfort Opera House, on the 22d. Dr. Ensor, late Republican Superin tendent of the Lunatic Asylum,- has been appointed collector of internal ! reveuue at Greenville. The smallest man in EdgefiVld coun ty is Mr. Lewis B. Suddath, who lives in the upper portion of the county. Mr. Suddath is 4 feet high, weighs 56 lbs. and will be 50 years old in October ?Edgefield Chronicle. Southern boys carried off the honors i this year both at West Point and An- j napolis. At the military academy, of j the first four graduates two were from j Missouri and one from Mississippi, and at the Naval Academy the cadet mid shipman who graduated at the head of his class was Mr. Lewis Nixon, of Vir ginia. The Bishop of Melbourne, Australia, has declined -to grant the petition of) some of the people- of his diocese to di rect prayer for rain. He says that material phenomena are under the con trol of laws which will not be changed or interrupted in answer to prayer, and ! that prayer should be a request for spiritual blessings only. The Philadelphia Record says a ru mor is aSoat that Mr. Dallas Saru?ders, a well known Democrat, of that city, has gone over to the Republican party. Mr. Saunders recently assisted iu the prosecution of the South Carolina elec tion officers before Judge Bond, ^for which service, it is said, he received ?7,500, although all the efforts to con- j vict were unsuccessful. One of the most eminent of German medical men is reported as saying that there are not less, probably, than 10,000 persons in Germany who have become j slaves to tbe habit of hypodcrmicaliy in- i jecting morphine. There are many who | take as much as eighteen injections { every day. Some have hardly a square i inch of skin on their bodies which is j not marked by sears produced by this practice. Slaves of this habit are even more hopelessly enchained than those who take opium in other ways, and it is speedier destruction. Senator Hill lifted his hat while rid- j iog through the streets of Atlanta on ! Sunday, but he did not bend his neck, lest he should trouble his wound. ?le j said to a reporter: 'I feel better than I \ have felt since, the last operation. I feel | better, I eat'better, I look better, I j sleep better, I walk better, I think bet- j ter, I talk better, I am better, but'? j and here the white band was lifted to ; the covered wound?'I don't know j whether this wound is better.' . A distressing accident occurred on j John's Island, near Charleston, last Thursday afternoon resulting in the death by lightning of Mr. J. W. Glover and one of his children. On the ap proach of the storm Mr. Glover went into his house and sat by an open win dow, having a three-year-old daughter j on. his knee and an i?fant in bis j arms. While in this position lightning struck the building, tearing out the ; whole end of tbe house and killing him ] instantly. The little girl received such j a severe shock that she died within an j hour, and the infant is not expected to j live. - warn - When your wife's health is bad, when your children are sickly, when you feel worn out, use Brown's Iron Bitters.

MAGAZINES, &c. "Our Little Ones." ?The July number of the above-named magazine for "Boys and Girls," has been received. It is quite an in teresting publication for those for whom it is especially designed, being made up of short, simple stories, suited for juvenile minds, and each article is illustrated by an instructive woo^d engraving. It is published by the Russell Publishing Co., of 36 Broomfield street, Boston. Mass., at Sl-50 per annum. And Such a Change. When the Republican party began its great career, its purpose was to prevent the extension of slavery. It was a great, humane, noble purpose ; and its glory will be immortal. ?[ow, after more than ^twenty five years, the Republican party seems to exist chiefly for tbe purpose of levyiDg illegal taxes upon clerks in the public departments, upon women and children who have no means of liviDg except the small salary earned by some father or brother employed by the Government. When a party has passed from such a magnificent beginning to such base ness as this, it is time that it should be dissolved before it descends to still low er degradation and utterly destroys the honest renown of its better days.?N. Y. Sun. Money for a Rainy Day. "For six years my daughter was sick from kidney and other disorders. We had used up our savings on doctors, when our dominie advi-"' us to try Parker's Ginger Tonic. Four outtles effected a cure, and as a dollar's worth has kept our family well over a year, we have been able to lay by money again for a rainy day."?A Poor Man's Wife. The Disgusting Charm. A delightful fragrance of freshly gathered flowers and spices is the distinguishing charm of Floreston Cologne. How sad to see a child growing up withlm emacialed appearance, sores covering the body, giving evidence of a Scrofulous taint in the blood. This can all be eradicated by the use of a few bottles ofS.
