Those who have been so fortunate as t< witness the famous play of "Hazel Kirke," a produced by the Madison Square Tbeatrt Company, must feel a natural curiosity to sa the drama which is universally conceded t( be the successor and rival of the former grea play. The remarkable success which attend? ed the production of Esmeralda in New Tori would indicate that popular favor has stamp ed the latter play as worthy to take the place of Hazel Kirke. The critical audiences of Nen York have united in highly commending Es* meralda as an original and iutensely interest rug dramatic work. Our citizens now have the opportunity of forming their own opinions since the play is to be produced here with ap? propriate scenic appointments and the follow? ing fine cast: Elbert Rogers-A North Carolina Farmer Mr. R.

Lucretia Borgia. The plav So admirably performed by Miss Scott on Friday night brought before the au? dience some of the dark scenes of that fearful time in the 15th century, of which the world and the church have both been ashamed. Rodrigo Lenzuolo, who as Pope, was styled Alexander the sixth was, for years, a man of most disreputable character. He was trained for the law, but afterwards chose the profes? sion of arms. A crimiual relation with a widow was ended by his effecting her death in order that he might take her daughter for bis mistress. Cssar Borgia and Lucretia were the result of this last alliance. On the death of Pope Innocent, in 1492, he bought the suffrages of certain cardinals, and thus became Pope This office he disgraced with all manner of evil. He carried simony to a point never before dreamed of, and a contem pory pasquinade about him, began with the line "Alexander sold the keys, sold the altars, sold Christ." His children, Caesar and Lucretia, followed in bis unworthy footsteps, and were equally profligate and lewd. Caesar, in attempting to poison four cardinals at a feast, killed bis tatber, to whom the poisoned wine was given by mistake. Lucretia, remarkable for beauty and accom? plishment, was married by her father against her wishes to a nobleman whom she did not love. This marriage only hastened her ruin. The union was soon dissolved, and she was vir? tually sold in marriage to a son of the King of Naples. She instigated her brother to pro? cure her second husband's deatb, and in 1501 she married Alfonso d'Este, and became a patron of men of letters and attracted a bril? liant society to her court. After this, little that is certain bas been written about ber. Some say she repented of ber evil life, and spent much time and money in acts of chari? ty. Others represent ber to the close of her life asa monster of profligacy, sharing in the atrocties of ber brother and father, and even living with them at Rome in incestuous in? tercourse. Miss Scott seems certainly to have caught the spirit of the age and of this wonderful woman. In ber tone and in jesture one seems to see the living outline of the sad-fated art? ful and vengeful Lucretia. Herself beautiful in person, and with that strange magnetic power of drawing one into sympathy with the play, one is forced'to feel that she should never personate any other than the famous Borgian. The only possible criticism was that in some parts there was a little over action, and that ber supporters frequently for? got themselves and spoke too rapidly. The concluding farce "A Kiss in the Dark" was a source of amusement to all, and sent all home ir. a good humor. Mr. Coburn sus? tained his part magnificently, as did also bis several supporters. On Saturday night, Miss Scott personated "Leah the Forsaken," and gave great satis? faction to the audience. The plot was* a du? plex one ia which the virtues and vices of both Jew and Christian were set forth under a very strong light The moral was good and the designed lessons salutary. Miss Scott won quite a name for herself as a beautiful wo? man and au accomplished actress. Cotton-raisers and cotton-buyers say that the staple produced this year is finer and of better quality than in many years previous. Never interrupt any conversation with a backing Cough : it creates a bad impression. Better invest a quarter of a dollar in a bot? tle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup and cure it. DEMOCBATICjASS MEETING. Booms of the Executive Committee Sumter County. SUMMER, S. C.. Oct 2, 1882. A Mass Meeting of the Democrats of Sumter County will be held on Monumental Square, on Thursday, the 12?A instant, at Eleven o'clock A. M. The Hon. WADE HAMPTON, U. S. Sena? tor will.address the meeting. All the Democratic Clubs will attend in charge of their President. Every Democrat is expected to be present. By order Executive Committee W. R. DELGAR, Co. Ch'n. Sumter County. W. D. BLANDING, Secretary and Treasurer. South Carolina Medical Association. The transactions of the thirty-second an? nual sassion of South Carolina Medical Asso? ciation, held in Spartanburg on the 25th and 26th of April last, have been published in pamphlet form, making au interesting volume of 160 octavo pages. Among other papers contributed we find one on "Hypodermic injections of morphia in puerperal convulsions," by John S. Hogh son, Sumter. S. C. An Infernal Machine. A rather sad affair took place on one of our streets the other day. A young lady with ber arms full of bundles emerged from a dry goods store, wheo one of them fell oa the side? walk without ber noticing it. Just behind her was a young mau. and ?he quickly step? ped forward to pick it np. Now a bundle done op in a piece of paper with a dry goods advertisement on it is apparently as harmless as A mother's spanking, and there it lay as guiless as an angleworm on a side? walk after a raiu. Just as he stooped to pick it up there was a rustling of the paper, the twist began to come out of the ends, and in another instant a bright red thing, a sort of a cross between a balloon and a devil-fish, flew into the air before bis eyes, anda number ten 36-incb, double-jointed, duplex, elliptic, steel-bowed, bustle-attachment, dollar-and-a half, read-headed hoopskirt waltzed around and gyrated and open and shut up and fell on the walk as a restaurant pie ; and the young man straightened himself up, look? ing as if he wished the tail of comet No. 2 would sweep him from this fair laud; and the young lady came back with a face that resembled a sunset on a fifty-cent chro? mo ; and she picked cp the wire contrivance, and then she went toward the east and be went toward the west and the sun ducked bis head behind a cloud to hide a smile, and three or four looked on laid down and laughed and doubled themselves up in a manner that would have made a mess of green apples hang their heads in shanie. Esmeralda makes a special appeal to the sympathy of Southern people. Ladies, have your fall and winter dresses made by the Dressmaker's Magic Scale Co., where you get Northern style at Southern prices. See advertisement in another column. Esmeralda was written by Mrs. Frances Hodgson Barnett, a North Carolina girl. Nervousness, debility, and exhausted vital? ity cured by using Brown's Iron Bitters. Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett knew well how to draw the beautiful character of Esme? ralda since the authoress herself was a North Carolina girl. - ? t I ? em The authoress and the heroine of Esme? ralda were Southern girls. - - i > - -. A boy was tied upon a horse at Santa Barbara, Cal., to prevent his falling off while he was learning to ride ; but this precaution caused his death, for when he fell sideways he swung around under the horse with his head down, and hung there, unable to free himself. The frightened horse, beginning to kick, broke the boy's legs and smashed his head. An Impossibility. Deserving articles are always appreciated. The exceptional cleanliness of Parker's Hair Balsam makes it popular. Gray hairs are impossible with its occasional use. "Esmeralda" is a Southern play in scene situation, character and authorship. Marriage is becoming common among Paris actresses. A recent instance is that of Mlle. Duverger, famous for playing tbe roles of milkmaids, shep? herdesses, and ragged beggars with diamonds flashing all over her, and for her association with old Prince Demidoff. She is made the wife of an actor named Delacour, who used to play Armand to her Camille. Critics say : "Esmeralda is entirely original in plot, situation and dramatic treatment.' How it Was Bone. "How do you manage," said a lady to ber freind, "to appear so happy and good na? tured all the lime?' CI always have Parker's Ginger Tonic handy,' was the reply, "and thus easily keep myself and family in good health. When I am well I always feel good natured.' A munificent Providence placed io Nature's store-house a cure or remedy for diseases which would first afflict the human family. Skiu or blood diseases necessarily were the first to seize upon mankind. S. S. S. is Natures remedy, taken from her bounteous storehouse, and never fails to cure any skin or blood disease, as thousands have joyously testified. Price, $1.00 and $1.75 per bottle.
