Egypt is rapidly settling into a
peacefulcondition. Alexandria is re?
ported to be daily becoming more crowd?
ed; with people, and rents are greatly in?
creasing. It is understood, however
that the British War Office has arranged
that three battalions of infantry shall
remain as a garrison at Alexandria, and
nine battalions at Cairo. Turkey is
beginning to feel some uneasiness on
account of the le Dg th of the English
stay in Egypt. The Sultan has called
Lord Dufferin's attention to the fact that
the note of the Porte inquiring when
tho British troops will leave Egypt still
remains unanswered. He threatens, ic
ease Lord Duffcrio does not reply, to
address himself to the Powers. It is
reported that the English and French
directors of the Suez Canal Company
have come to on agreement in favor of
the enlargement and improvement of
the canal, in view of an expected in
' crease of traffic. In anticipation of a
renewal of the complications concern
tog the frontier, the Greek government
has ordcrd the troops on Thessalian
border to be reinforced. The Porte,
H is said, has assured Greece that it
will order an evacuation by the Turks
of all the ceded places on the frontier
without delay.
Senator Hampton.
J. C. H., writing from Columbia,
under date of October 3, says : In a let?
ter to John C. Haskell, Esq., on Octo
.toner 1, Senator Hampton says: I go
to New York to-night and whether the
committee meets or not I shall be back
in time to take part ia the Charleston
meeting on the 12th. I will go back
as soon as I can and I ?Ul then go
anywhere the State Executive Commit?
tee wish. We shall be rained if we
lose this election.
Senator Hampton's absence from the
State bas been caused by bis appoint?
ment as a member of an important com?
mittee of the Senate, the meeting of
which he has now gone to New York to
attend.
THE COUNTY F AIE.
The annaal fair of the Sumter Ag?
ricultural Association, which will be
held here daring the latter part of this
month, is an institution in which all
should be interested who favor the de?
velopment of our Agricultural and Me?
chanical resources. The increased ex?
ertion in these departments which is
doubtless stimulated by the premiums
which are offered for excellent produc?
tions, is but a portion of the benefit
which is actually derived. The mutual
contact of farmers and mechanics; the
discussion of subjects, and exchange of
views and experiences in connection
with our various industries; the inter?
est excited'by a large exhibition of nat?
ural and artificial produce; will be of
material advantage to many, as individ?
uals, while new energy will be awak?
ened by turning the public mind in
this direction. The success of such en?
terprises-depends, in a great measure
upon the number and value of exhibits,
and we would urge our friends through?
out the country to spare no pains to
make it as complete as possible. The
association have prepared a neatly print?
ed catalogue containing the list of pre?
miums with other information, and
competent committees have been ap?
pointed to examine and award the priz?
es. The bicycle exhibition and a grand
tournament are additional features. in
the way of amusement. The horse rac?
ing which will be unconnected with the
regular exposition will evidently grati?
fy the lovers of that sport.
The managers confidently expect a
larger attendance than ever before, and
the general prosperity occasioned bv a
successful crop year does not ?uj^Pe
disappointment in this direotion.
The County Fair of Darlington was
previously arranged to take place at the
same time as our own. A recent post?
ponement however of the time for hold?
ing tbe former will enable those who
were so desirous, of attending both.
LOCAL OPTION.
For many years the subject of Tem?
perance has agitated the public mind.
The evils of intemperance are truly
legion, and the question has been how
can they be decreased, or entirely ban?
ished from the land. There are those
who contend for moderation in the use of
intoxicants-others for unrestrained
license, when liquors shall flow as
water and men become surfeited or dis?
gusted with its use-while others still
are advoca ti D g and earnestly endeavor?
ing to inaugurate total prohibition.
Whatever may have been the results in
the past, at the present a brighter day
seems to have dawned upon the friends
of prohibition, lt is almost impossible
to realise the progress that has been
made. The States of Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Kansas and
Iowa have at last established prohibi?
tion. . Ten other States are striving
now for a si miliar constitutional amend?
ment. 'Local Option* prohibition pre?
vails in a number of the towns and
cities in New Jersey ; in Logan, Media,
and other Counties of Pennsylvania ;
all of Sou th Carolina without the incor?
porated cities, ,towns, and villages,
while several of the later have decided
'local option' by vote during the last
twelve months ; about one half of the
State of Georgia represented by forty
two Counties, besides Church and
School neighborhoods ; in ten or fifteen
Counties and numerous districts in
Alabama; in large districts in Mis?
sissippi ; in many parishes in Louis?*
iana; about one half of the State of
Tennessee, under the 'Four miles Law;'
large sections of Arkansas ; as well as
several counties of Texas.
We notice these facts because of the
movement now being made in Sumter
for "Local Option." As noticed above,
in 1880 the Legislature of this State
passed an Act restricting the sale of in?
toxicating liquors to the incorporated
cities, towns, and villages ; thus estab?
lishing prohibition in all the rural dis?
tricts of the State. The last Legislature
passed an Act effecting the incorporations
of which the following is a brief outline.
It provides, that whenever a number of
citizens of any incorporated city, town
or village equal to one third of the num?
ber of votes cast at the last municipal
election, shall in writing, on or before
the 15th November, petition for an
election upon the question of "license"
or 4'no license," the council is authori?
zed and required to submit such ques?
tion to the qualified electors before the
1st day of December, --and a majority
vote shall decide the question. If "no
license" obtains it shall be un?
lawful for any druggist therein to sell
any spirituous, or intoxicating liquors,
bitters, 4c, except upon the certificate
of a regular practising physician in act?
ual attendance upon a patient, such
certificate to contain the name of the
patient, and shall be filed by the drug?
gist filling the same, and kept for one
year subject to inspection at any time
the council may direct.
There will be, therefore, an election
ordered, as many more names have
been placed opon the petition, now cir?
culating, than the law requires. The
voters of this town will now be able to
say positively whether or not whiskey
must be protected or excluded.
AH* INSTRUCTIVE REPOST.
The United States Commissioner of
Education bas published bis report for
1880. It gives a survey of educational
work for tho last decade. It is a large
volume of 1,100 pages and could not
prove of much interest to the million.
It furnishes very much, however, that
is of real interest to those who watch
the growth of our country and hs prog?
ress in the very important field of edu?
cation.
It is estimated that ?80,000,000 is
expended annually in the United States
in educating the children. There are
1,000,000 pupils and 300,000 teachers
employed.
Education in the South is advancing
steadily. The best schools in the South
are every way equal to the best in the
North. This is conceded by Northern
men who have closely studied the sys?
tems of the two sections. There were
more colleges and more students and
more professors in the South than in the
North prior to the war. There has
been done much to encourage us in the
way of education in the South, but
there remains a vast deal yet to do.
Large views, liberal appropriations,
wise management, enthusiasm and de?
votion are needed te give a still greater
impetus to the great educational forces
at work.
The Peabody Education Fund.
At a recent meeting of the trustees
and directors of the Peabody and Edu?
cation Fund, in New York, the following
distributions since October 1,1881, ag?
gregating $?80,334,41, were reported:
The State of Tennessee received
$12,800; Texas, $17,500: Virginia,
$3,234.41; West Virginia, $2,300;
South Carolina, $5,375; North Carolina,
$6,485 ; Georgia, $8,590 ; Mississippi,
$4,275; ^Louisiana, $5,900; Florida,
$3,725; Arkansas, $5,075; Alabama,
$5,075.
This princely gift of one of the most
benevolent of men-Geo. Peabody, ?f
Boston, has been of inestimable value to
thousands of children in the South, for
whose benefit it was donated. Though
large at first, and managed by honest
and experienced men, it has lately been
dimished by thc dishonesty of two
Southern States. Nearly three hundred
thousand dollars has been lost by the
bad faith of Tennessee, and recent dis?
patches state that one million of dollars,
principal and interest, will -be lost by
the repudiation of bonds belonging to
that fund by the State of Mississippi.
It ts a cause of shame to the entire
South that two of these States should
conspire to rob its poor children of this
noble gift. Repudiation under any cir?
cumstances is a cause of regret, but
under these circumstances it is simply
disgraceful.
The Comet.
Ita Xeucleus Separated Into Titree Un?
equal Fragments.
NASHVILLE, October 5.-This morn?
ing, at 4.30 o'clock, E. E. Barnard, of
this city, discovered that the nucleus in
Crul's comet had separated into three
unequal fragments, the largest esti?
mated at 15,000 miles in length. The
space between the fragments of the
nucleus is estimated at uot less than
2,000 miles. Yesterday morning Mr.
Barnard observed that the nucleus bad
assumed the form of a long strip, not
less tbau 24,000 miles in length, and
3,000 in breadth.
Latest Reporta from the Heavenly Visitor.
PHBLPS, N. Y., Oct. 8 -Telescop?
ic observations of the great comet,
made this moroing by Professor
Brooks, of Redhouse observatory,
show the recent disturbance in the head
to be subsiding. The nucleus is now
condensed and pear-shaped. The tail
appeared brighter than usual, with a
length of 50,000,000 miles.
No one knows much about it; there
bas not yet been time enough since thc
discovery to enable one to make trust?
worthy calculations. It is not the comet
of 1843, 1880, or of any other jear, so
far as men know, and guesses are use?
less.
Speaking of the comet of 1843 New?
comb says : 'Its Orbit did not certainly
deviate from a parabola. The most care?
ful investigation of it-that of Professor
Hubbard of Washington-indicated a
period of 530 years, but the velocity
which would produce this period is so
near the parabolic limit, that the dif?
ference does not exceed the uncertainty
of the observations.'
If, then, an astronomer should say
that this is nbc comet of 1843, which
reappeared in 1880 and in 1882,' it is
lawful to suggest that he is mixing
things too promiscuously. If the orbit
of the com it of 1S43 is a parabola, the
body will never return to this system.
Donati's comet was first seeo on the
2d of June, 1858, and after it had been
watched and 'set up with,' so to .?peak,
by all the principal astronomers in the
world for six months, Profesetir J. 1).
Runkle of Boston published the follow?
ing as the results of the computations by
the most eminent .computers in this
country and Europe :
PERIODS OF DOXATl's COMET.
Watson 2,405 years
Brnhns 2,102 years
Lowy 2,495 years
Graham 1,620 years
Burnnow 2,470 years
Newcomb 1,854 years
Twenty years afterward Professor
Newcomb gives 1,950 years as the re?
sult of G. W. Hill's careful research.
Such beiog the facts iu regard to this
celebrated comet, sensational articles
about the comet of 1882 are entirely out
of place, and all statements of its period
of revolution can be nothing more than
tbe rudest kind of guessing-hardly
rising to the dignity of a 'barren ideali?
ty.' Had it fallen into the sun. it is
not probable that any one would have
known it, or that the temperature of the
earth would have been increased by the
hundreth part of a degree Fahrenheit.
But the disposition to wonder at un?
usual events is no new thing under the
sun. A long time ago Tacitus said,
.0???ne ?g not um pro mirifico' which
may be freely translated : 'The less
you know about it the louder the racket
you make.'-Cincinnati Commercial.

KNOCKABOUT SUITS.
(PATENTED.)
Ten Reasons vhj^ is the best Suit no*
- in the market fol Boys' wear.
I. -Because the "KNOCK A COUTS1/ are made fro?r?eubje warp ?nd dooble-acd-twist,
untearable and wear-resisting fabrics. ....
II. -Because the "KNOCKABOUTS" are trimmed io the most substantial manner, none
but indestructible materials in thread, linings, battons, Ac., being ?ted in their
manufacture.
III. -Because the "KNOCKABOUT" Pants are made with our Patented '?Carslry Knee,"
thereby iosuring the greatest durability. -. ~
IV. -Because thc "KNOCKABOUT" fabric being a light color is not objectionable, aaaoay ,
suppose, for it is in reality a neutral shade which will not soil easily, and witt sot '
show the dust '
V.-Because the "KNOCKABOUT" as irs name implies, is a neat, serriceabls outfit, and
is well calculated to stand any amount of rough usage.
VI.-Because the "KNOCKABOUT" is produced solely to supply a want of aa honest
wearing, substantially made BOY'S SUIT at the low price of $5MO.
VII.-Because the "KNOCKABOUT" has proved an inestimable blessing to erny Father'
who has to buy, and erery Mother who bas to mend, the clothing of the irrepressible
boy of the period.
VIII-Because of the above given reasons the "KNOCKABOUT" Suits commend themselves
to the taste, judgment and pocket of those to whom the amount of money expended
during the year for Boys' Clothing is no inconsiderable item.
IX.-Because, since ''nothing succeeds like success," the great success of the "KNOCKA?
BOUT" thus far proves it to be just the.Suit that was needed for Boys' wear.
X.-Because knock-about as mach as you will, nothing will bs found to knock thc
"KNOCKABOUT" Suit that is manufactured for . .
$5,00.
