I * TUESDAY, JANUARY 22. \ The Sumtbr Watchman was found cd iii ?850 and the S?ttthron- in 1S66. The B be on the - wane. Mr. Beecher says j that his death will be the signal for j ^Esjntegration, and tba organization j which has been the pride of hts life will j soon be a thing of the past. At the: anana] sale of pews last week, the re- j ^ceiptsi were $4,000 less thao asua!, only ? bringing $34,000 against ?38,000 last ! year. - i % Itjooksasif war will soon be?in in j earoo* between France and China. ' There has already been some skirmish ing in Congress, which is likely to be ? thewaat of war for some time, and from j, the movements of troops, hot work may j soon be expected. Strange to say, war is j i ^fiolyet declared between the two powers, j < tad though diplomatic relations are j verj shaky,"** the Chinese Minister isj< atffl ss Fans. [ . The wives of prominent officials at j i Washington are squabbling over the ?! question of precedence on State occu- J1 .?ns, and some bad blood is being en- j ' gendered. What difference can it j4 make to a sensible woman whether she j 1 stands on the right or left of the Presi- !i dent, or as to that matter, whether she ' Staads Bear him at all. It is bad enough j. for nien to quarrel over such trifles, j women ought to know better. j j Some of the State papers are talking i \ about Mr;4W.. H. Perry, as a saitable ! | candidate for Governor, next fall. We j i have nothing but words of praise for j< Mr Perry. Heb the son of one of j' the noblest eea itt the State, and is ! \ himself an honest, capable gentleman,:, hot we have a Governor that so com- i ! j?etcly fulfils our idea of what that of? ficial should bs that a change would1 cause mcch regret. The Republican Senators at Washing- ! toa have been sorely exercised over the 1 Presidency of the Senate. Mr. An taony of Rhode Island bad some claims j to the office, bot his health is bad and if j he were to die in office, and some lu- ! nat ie should assassinate Arthur, Mr. j Carlisle would stand next io the order ; of succession, the bare contemplation of - * i which gave them the night-mare. So ) Mr. Anthony was elected, with the uu- ? derstaodiog that he was to resign. ; which he did like, a gentleman, and ; Mr. Edmunds was daly put in bis place, j The Government is safe, at least until ! next year. j The Lexington Disp many of us use. No more practical j jtibject can be brought to the attention j >f Trustees and Patrons than that of j providing comfortable houses for our j j schools. ! ) - -I I ll WI - The Public Schools. j Editor of thc Enquirer : While in nearly every prominent town ! F in the State a lively imerest is taken i t in the public schools, the town of -c Georgetown seems to be far behind ? t ber sisters. Very little concern is man- j ifested about the comfort of the ehil- j c Iren who attend these schools here- ? r certainly so far as respects the white j ?hildrcn. For while the colored schol- ! j ars are enjoying thc conveniences aud : ? comforts ofigB^well-appoiuted school f bouse, the wrrrres are crowded into two j s small rooms in an old dilapidated build- ! ( ing, and in one or two instances cbil- ; c Jren have fainted from the effects of I ? the impure atmosphere in the school . } room. By a little effort thc Trustees , j could procure a better house for the { purpose or have one built at a small out- t lay. A small extra tax would soon pay \ j the expenses if the fonds are not uow j < available. As at prcseut conducted, it ' ] is prejudicial to thc health of both i teacher and pupils. i ( OBSERVER, j, It seems from the above that George- , j town needs stirring up as well as Sum- ! 1 ter on the school question. . . . .-- j" Neighboring Counties.

A decided improvement-, but j when the poll tax is raised to ?5 the j schools will remain open for a much ! longer period. -It is estimated that j the oat crop in this county has been ? damaged to the amount of ?100.000. j The oats planted in October will not be j seriously damaged, but the December planting is killed. Thc next best thing , is to make a spring sowing, but this j crop is uever as good as the fall sowing. -Rev. J. W. Perry and family left last week for his new work in Statcs ville. N. C. Manning regrets to lose so valued a citizen, for he had wen the ; love and esteem not only of his own con- ; gregatioo, but of ali with whom became ; in contact. Ile bas our best wishes for : his usefulness aud success in Iiis new field of labor. -Mr. 31. F?rsten- j burg and family left last week for Au- . gusta, where he will engage in business, j Mr. Fttrstenburg was a valued addition to our town, and he will be missed iu business circles -Major Carraway, ? book keeper of M F?rsten burg, has ; gone on a visit to Florida, where he j will spend some time.

A A. Gilbert, the uew preacher on the Hanging Kock circuit, has arrived. Ile was at his post at Damascus on the first Sunday in this month ; but, owing to the intensely cold weather, there was no congrega? tion. He will preach here on the 4th Sunday iii this month. -Un the 6th inst., Mrs. Augus McGougau pre? sented her husband with a daughter'; she becoming a mother at the age of" 13 years, 3 months and 12 days. The father is about 17 years old. The phy? sician iu attendance reports her doing j well, aud says she is the youngest moth - j rr he cv%r attended. -On last Fri- j day afternoon, while Mrs Hardin, of the j Antioch section, had gone to the spring j for water, she heard a scream from her i little three-year-old daughter. Hush- | ing back to thc house, she found the ! clothes on the child in a blaze. She j immediately tore off what clothing was I left on the child, but it had been so se- ! verely burned that death come to its re?- j lief that night. -On last Friday, ! while some children were playing on the hillside near the home of Mr. W. j S. McDonald, in the lower Kossvillc section of the county, a log lying on j the side of the hill was moved, in sport, j by some of the children, and rolling j rapidly down the bill passed rapidly ? over tho body of a five-year-old son of j Mr. McDonald, causing the death of; the child almost instantly. The young 1 parents have the kindest sympathy of ? their friends in this heart-rending be- j rea vernen t. fFor the Watchman and .Southron.J Smithville News Items. Kev. J. J. Myers, in crossing Kaf- I ten Creek, on the 5th instant, found the ice so thick and strong that he had great difiicully in crossing. Fortunate- j ly he did not get hurt; his horse,, though, was slightly cut on the leg. Mr. H. II. Evans killed a hog that : weighed over 500 lbs. Some of the people, around Smith- ? ville, have been trying to see the comet but have not succeeded. Probably their . eyesight is not good. The severe cold has injured the ad- . vanced oats, and the late ones, we arc ' afraid, are all killed. The first part of the Lien and Mort- j jage crop, in this section, came over j the Columbia road, a few days ago. j From accounts, the crop will be a heavy ; :me this year. King Cotton, as usual, is heeinning io stir up his people wonderfully about j bere. The*" best lands, manure, and ?ttendon, will pay homage to his King- j ship, by his dutiful down-trodden sub-, ?ects. The dusky citizens arc asking too ? auch h their labor. D. [Fur the Watchman and Southron.1 Bishopville Items. i Around about Bishopville times are j jard, money scarce, and prospects any- ! bing else but cheering. Cotton nearly or quite all marketed, ; uoney in somebody's else pockets, but ! it tie coru in our cribs, or meat iu our ? ?moke houses. Order of the day-ear- ? Kst communications with factors and ' )lhers, soliciting advauces to enable us : 0 make another crop of king cotton. While thc above truths are not appli- , sable to all, they are, alas, too true as ' : ?gards a large majority of us The prospects for an oat crop (so . >romising ten days ago) is gloomy mough lo-day, owing to the recent reezc of ten days duration, which for i ?everity was unprecedented in the mern- . >ry of the oldest citizens. Nothing 1 lone as yet toward commencing prep- ; irations for another crop. About all ' ,ve have beeu able to do, was to make . ires and stay near them to keep from ,1 reeziug. There is some complaint as ;o scarcity of laborers-several of our ! 'armers, not having been -..ole up to late to contract with more than half the [lauds they wish to employ. ; I believe thc inclination of the farm irs is to plant ns much cotton as ever sven if the prospects do point to low ! prices uext fall. Better be sure to ; plant so as to secure full barns with j reasonable season?, and then, all thc ; 30ttou weean cultivate properly. Land rent in this neighborhood is ? quite remunerative to those who have j much to rent, the usual price being ! from three to five dollars per acre, j Messrs. J. N. & ll. VJ. Carnes rented a j hundred acres a few days since, for ; which they are to pay five hundred and j twenty five dollars; however, it is a ; choice piece of cottou land. Mr. A. Brooks Stuckey, the efficient ; teacher of thc Bishopville free school, j has quite a flourishing school at this i time. Right mau in the right place- j So we thiuk. Miss Elida James, the teacher of the j school at Piedmont Baptist Church, has j been quite sick for several weeks, but : we are glad to hear she is convalescing, j and will soon be able to take charge of ' her school airain. \\ e are about to lose one of our use ful young men, in the person of Mr. Lewis Husbands, who has made up his 1 mind to try Florida for awhile. Our | best wishes attend him. Thc health of the neighborhood is generally good, and although somewhat cast down in spirits when we look back at thc failures of the past year, and at the doubtful future before us. methinks 1 eau see underlying ir all, a disposition to forget the failures uf the past and a de? termination to grapple with thc stringen? cy of the timos ; use mot e economy in the : future, and strive harder (if possible) j than ever before to bring about a bet- : ter style of affairs ; looking unto Him from whom cometh our help, to scud . us the early and latter rains and biess our efforts with an abundant harvest. So mote it be. SOMETIMES. Four Lives Saved. Dr. Hull's Cough Syrup relieved four of my ' children of a most alarming attack of Whoop? ing Gough, from which their throats and necks became so swollen as to prevent them from swallowing. Nothing would give them even temporary relief, until this Syrup uns tried. One bottle, in one night, saved their ; lives, I verily believe. GEO. W. EARHART. Captain of Police, Baltimore, Md. Parched and swollen lips indicate worm?. Shriner's indian Vermifuge will destroy and eject these detestable creatures from the intes? tines, thus restoring thc child to health and beaut Y. Earthquake at Wilmington. The following from the Star gives an account of an earthquake at Wilming? ton lost Friday morning. .What is generally couceded to have been the shock of an earthquake was distinctly felt in this city yesterday morning, about 8 o'clock, and was the theme of conversation during the day. Many dwellings were shaken very per? ceptibly, and in s mc instances to an estent to create alarm. We heard of oue gentleman who became impressed with the idea that the foundations of his house were giviog away. Another party states that he was in a close room at the time, and that the concussion was sufficient to agitate articles of cloth ins: hanging in the room. In some instances crockery and glassware were made to rattle by thc force of the shock, which was not confined to any particu? lar part of the city. Some of the older peopiesay they have heard a?d felt earthquake shocks before, but none so perceptibly as this. Some persons say the shock was accompanied by a rum? bling: sound, and one or two declare that they felt two or three distinct shocks. The main s! k lasted from eight to teo seconds.' - II II 'i i ? nniw - - Salaries of Supfcrv Until March 1st thc salaries of Super? visors will be at the rate of ?100 per annum. After that time and until October 31st, when the appropriation expires, all supervisors, except the supervisor of Charleston County, will receive pay at tho rate of ?500 per annum. Orangeburg has had another fire. A frame building occupied as a store by Messrs. Leudo, liansdale & Co., was burned. Lowson the building ?1 OOO on the goods ?2,000. Thc latter was toured for ?1,500. New* of another terrible disaster comes, namely, the wreck of thc steam? er City of Columbus, plying between Boston and Savannah, entailing the loss of over one hundred live?. The vessel struck on a reef near Martha's Vineyard on the cast coa.< of Massa? chusetts, ab"ut 3 o'clock Friday morn? ing. A heavy gale was blowing at the time and but 23 persons out of thc 147 ou board were saved. Following close upon the accident to the Steamship Celtic comes the news that thc Germanie, of the same linc, j has broken her shaft on the voyage 1 from Liverpool to New York aud has j been compelled to return to port. Ger- ! tain prearranged routes across the ! Atlantic which steamers ought to fol- i low would aid largely in bringing re- j lief to them when they arc overdue and j allaying the anxiety of those who may j have friends ou board. Kev. Dr. Xewman, formerly iuspec- j tor of consulates under President. Graut ? and the discoverer of the garden of Eden, is again in trouble. Although a fol- j lower of John Wesley, he accepted the ! pastorate of a Congregational church in ; New \ork city, and at. the annual meet- j iug of thc church on Wednesday night one of tho deacons asserted that the rev- j ereud gentleman was not a Congregation- ! alist, aud reported his work to the Meth- : odist conference, as if the church in quos- . tion was s Methodist mission Mr. New-1 mau retorted angrily, but was stopped j by the presiding officer, wiio said, j 'Don't call our beloved deacon a liar; ! he won't staud it.' A new command- ; mont might, well be added to the deca- ? logue believed in by that church. "Our Women in the War." j The Zieles and Courier, Chu rles lon, S. C., ; desires to obtain fifty or more sketches of the j experiences, grave or gay, lively or severe, of ? tlie Southern women during the tvar. Little ; has been published hitherto concerning their j sufferings, anxieties and privations, and the j News and Courier wishes to make the record ; of the war complete, by giving the American public a just idea of what the Southern wo- ! men endured during the struggle for the Lost j Cause. There was comedy as well as tragedy j in their daily lite, and the object is to obtain 1 descriptions of every side and phase of a ? Southern woman's trnls and triumphs, at ? li?me oras a refugee, during the Confederate : struggle. The sketches in question will be I published in the Weekly Jfoics. Charleston, S. ! C.. under the general title of''Our Women in ! the War." The conditions are as follows: j 1. The sketches must bc written by South- ; 3rn women who were in thc South during the j war, and shall be confined to a description of ! events and circumstances of which ilie writers j liave personal knowledge, and with which ; they or their families were connected. i. Each sketch shall lill not less than (if- \ teen nor more than thirty pages of foolscap j written on one side. 3. The sketches shall be sent, with real ; name of the writer to I li e ?Vete* and Courier^ \ Charleston, S. C., not later than March 1st, ? I SS*. 4. Every sketch that is accepted will be ! promptly paid for, and any Southern woman I who ih-sires to do so can send in two or more i sketches. ? The object in view is certainly an excellent ' one, and it is hoped thal Southern women everywhere will do their part in making tin* undertaking successful, '"in order," as ilie j Sties and Courier says, "that tardy justice j may be rendered to the women who encour? aged the soldiers by their pa tien 1 fortitude and solaced them with words of cheer, and who, through all manner of hardship, of an- i guish, of misery, were faithful and true to the j very end-and after!"
