In writing this notice this hot sultry day, we ure remind? ed of the fine, luscious watermelon she sent us last August, and feel very sure that tbe young B lady 4rboStarts out in Jiff? by remembering tbe editors will be rich and happy ever after. The many friends of Capt. W. E. Plowden, who left bis home near M aves vii Ie about fifteen years ago for Alabama, will be pleased to know that be, with Mrs. Plowden, has returned to bis old home on a visit, which he will probably prolong until January. The Captain gave us a call Saturday, and we were pleased to see that be was looking well, .adi that the years were dealing kindly with IMBI. The Supt and Courier of the 22d instant quote? an article front the Cn ra den Journal of last , week about the two aid? to Gen. Manigault who were smoking while on duty, and calls them "Camden Colonels." Our friend is mistaken. The gentlemen are not from Camden-they are from Sumter, and arc but little known in Camden -Camdm Journal Now that is too bad. The Sumter Colonels j declare most positively that they are not guilty; that they nertr did such naughty tricks io their lives, and never intend to; that they are so proud when they don their asar Ital toggery and mount their war horses, and every body looking at them, that they couldn't smoke for their life. In conclusion, if any ?Teur Kershaw neighbors want to get a fight on their hands let them come over to Smiter and say they saw Sumter "Colonels" smoking while on inspection. Tbe weather is bot and dry. Next week Court meets-Judge Kershaw ! pres id io g. The County Commissioners have put a man | at work mowing the public square. Contractors will notice proposals for build- j lng a Church at Fores ton. Attention County creditors to the notice of j County Commissioners. Col. Earle bas two cottages for rent. Sec I advertisement Yesterday was very quiet. A number of j the largest stores were closed, and business j was not flourishing. Mr. Y Ates bas filled in bis space in to-day's | paper with a most appetizing account of his j ' Bice things. Mr. J. E. Physioc is sales agent in Sumter for tbe renowned Clothing House of Wanna maker k Brown, known as Oak Hall.

There was a good meeting of the I. 0. G. I T. last Wednesday evening. The members ! expect to try to have the one to-morrow night j still bitter. Bat three more weeks to pay taxes and the ! work scarcely began Wake up friends, j Those who watt till the last few days always ! have a bard tone swappiug their money for ! receipts. Some possum hunters from town while out j one Bight last week at their favorite sport, j came across their dog suffering very much j from snake bite; and they were so much j demoralized by the sight thal they ali made | tracks for home leaving dog, snakes aud pos- j k*ums to make the best of tbe situation. We are under obligations to tbe Insurance j Co., ofNorth America, Chas. Platt, Presideuf, j for a "new colored lithograph of the New j York Cotton Exchange, by all odds the largest and finest Cotton Exchange in the world." It is certainly a magnificent build? ing, judging from the engraving. A number of negroes near Heriot t's X Roads believe judgment day is near at band, aad ?re indulging ia numerous eccentricities as a consequence. We have no doubt that good many other people wocld indulge in eccentricities if they thought judgment was M THE Resignation. Col J. D. Blanding, who is candidate for Presidential elector in this District, has resigned his position as a member of the County Board of Examiners for this County and also as Trustee for the S. C. University. His resignation.will be seriously felt iu both of those places. A life-long friend to the cause of education, his influence has always been given to any more that would improve our schools. It is scarcely necessary to add that Col. Blanding only resigus because of the fact that he is candidate for Presidential elector. He regrets doing so especially at this time, when the University is under ?re. He has been connected with the manage? ment of the schools in Sumter ever since 1851, and his been Trustee of the University since 1876. ---??*??***?- .??? w Collision. Last Thursday, tbe construction train on the W. C. & A. was sent down the Central to get a load of lumber. Just beyond Wire's Mill, while going at a slow rate, it was run into hy tbe Central construction train, and a general hubbub followed. Capt. Hall was well jolted up, and several of the hands were hart, one of them being severely cut. Capt. Hall, we understand, has got disgusted with such unceremonious affairs, and resigned his place as engineer. The fast mail from Charleston was delayed a?rerai boure by the accident. A dense fog, and a failure to receive a tele? graphic order were the causes of the collision. Municipal. A poor, druoken unfortunate came in on the afternoon train last Tues? day from Colombia, with a full cargo of whis? key on board. He staggered on up street by easy stages, and about tea o'clock reached Rosendorfs, and thinking that the proper place in which to stop, reeled in and took a seat. After awhile, the bar-keeper led him to the door and put him out, ile soon came io again and was pat oat by the bar-keeper in a forcible way and beaten after be was on the j street. A Policeman took him in charge and j pat him in the G.turd House. Next morn i og before the Council he was fined $7.50 for making a nuisance of himself and the bar- I keeper $5.00 for beating him. Public Roads. The question is frequently asked who are exempt from road duty? State and county examiners and school trustees, real estate tax assessors, teachers and students of schools aud colleges, ministers of the gospel, millers who grind six days in each week, and thc warner, for five days, are exempt from road duty. All other able bodied men from sixteen lo fifty years must work th? roads uot less than three or more than twelve days in each year. I. O. G. T. Providence Lodge I. 0. G T. will hold a degree, meeting at their Lodge room on Sat? urday, October 10th, at 10 A. Jil., and has invited the members of Sumter Lodge to join with them in the meeting. As soou as the Degree Work, which is private, and will not last more than an hour, is complete, the meet? ing will be public, and a cordial invitation is j given to all the friends of temperance tobring their louch baskets and spend the day at the springs. G. W. C. T. Chreiizherg, P. G. W. j C. T. Cuttino. and other prominent Templars } are expected to be pre?ent. - .????? Death. Mr. G; W. Weston of Clarendon, who is j well known by many of our Sumter readers j died latt week at bis borne near Calvary ! Church. Reported Shooting. We learn that Mr George Shaw-and Mr. Walter Ellis of Camden, hud a difficulty yes? terday* io Camden, and that Mr. Ellis was j badly wounded. Dime Heading. The Dime Reading was at Dr. China's last j Thursday night. It was a pleasant affair as j it always is The reading, music and resitations were all ! good bot we must mention Miss Dulcie : Moise's effort as remarkably fine. Commissioners of Election for Sum? ter County. The following appointments have been made by Gov. Thompson, as Commissioners of Election for Sumter Connty : State and County-W. J Beard, A. S. Brown, J. J. Bronson. Federal-D. J. Auld, Bartow Walsh, W. F. Rbame. Pshaw I If the yonng scalawag, who has been try? ing for so long to get some political capital with the g. o. p. at the expense of the Watch? man and Southron, is very desirous of getting gore upon his under garment we advise him j to tackle Butler Spears, who just now has an appetite for such flesh. It is too rank for us -notwithstanding the youngness. S. P. A. A. The Premium List of the Sumter Park and Agricultural Association for 1S84, is before os. It shows all through the perseverance and energy of its Secretan* and Treasurer, Mr. Charles Moise, and we hope his warmest antic? ipations of success will be realized. j Darlington Fair. The Preniitto List of the Darlington Fair Company for the 14th Annual Fair bas been j received. It commences Wednesday 29th and doses Friday 31st October. The Darlington | Fair is always a success. Claremont Troop. The survivors of this historic command held their re-union last Saturday at the Fair Grounds. The meeting was well attended nod the day very pleasantly spent. We will pive a detailed account of thc meeting with the roll of the Company in our next issue. County Treasurer Haile has kindly fur? nished us with a statement of the number of certain names on the tax booksof this county, it appears that th<>re are 84 Browns. 45 Smiths.. 37 Alexanders and 22 Halls.- Cam? den Journal. We can beat that and not half try. We find on the Sumter tax books 223 W Usons and 106 Williamses, and it we had time could doubtless do better than that. Our Exchanges. The Kershaw Gazette has entered its twelfth year. We hear that Col. J. W. R. Pope has again taken charge of the editorial columns ot the Columbia Register. Col. Pope is a writer of great force and our only criticism is that he is too fluent in statistics. However we wave the statistic question and say that we are very glad to have bim back among us. h ' y Isind, one of DeLothrop k Co's, ex? quisite* i ublications continues to win popular? ity by its merits It is edited hy the Wide Awake folks, and the unanimous verdict of our babies is, that it is perfectly splendid.

Andrews killed a hog last Friday, affected with every symptom of hydro? phobia. The hog was bitten about two weeks before, during Mr. Andrew's absence, by a large yellow dog, that passed that pissed through the neighborhood, and which is supposed to have been mad. The hog nine days afterward began to develop symp? toms of rabie3, and soon became so violent as to necessitate its separation from the other hogs. Finally all hope of its recovery being lost, Mr. Andrews killed it as above stated. A friend from Bisliopville informs us that he killed a youDg cow a few days ago that was apparently affected with hydrophobia. He did not known how she became inocu? lated with .the poison, but thought best to kill her. Mayesville Items. MAYESVILLE, S. C., September 29, 1834. A negro lad named Robert Banks was thrown (supposed accidentally) from the 4 A. M. train, Sunday morning, the 21st in? stant, near this place and seriously though not fatally injured. Dr. Corbett attended him, setting a fractured thigh, etc. He was from Wilmington aad has been sent home to be cartd for. Another negro named Drown Mingo was accir1 n ally shot at Wedgefield on Saturday afternoon last and brought here for treatment. Dr. Corbett examined the wound and found that the ball had penetrated the skull and lodged in the brain. Very little hopes are entertained for his recovery though he is still living. Kelly Mack, colored, died some days ago, after a long spell of sickness. The youngest child of Kev. J. ?. Platt has been quite ill but is now better. Mr. Henry Anderson and Mrs. Warien .ire both sick. Mrs. N. G. Du Bose has returned from her vis-it to Manning. Mr. Willimar) and sister from Charleston are visiting Mrs. J. W. Low? ry. I see Lawyer Bowman has been visiting Mayesville for the lust few days. Messrs Chandler & Lemon have painted the front of their store, which now looks quite stvlish. You know "fine feathers make fine birds." Shipments to date, 1250 bales of cotton. Prices 8 to 9 cen ts. DL'GC A X. Privateer Item.:-. The cotton crop is being harvested more I rapidly than usual. It will turu out much j shorter than wa* expected in July, owiug to t tbe drought of 4% weeks which ended Septem I ber tenth. The pea crop was cut off by the dry I weather. We have been figuring nt the cost of pro ! dticing cotton and corn on our light lands I with tbe following results : Cotton costs 8 I cents per pound, corn 39 ceuts per bushel. Iii cents per pound is avery small margin j with which to buy poorer corn than the home i raised at from 2 to 2? times the latter With ! an abundance at 3& cents per bushel we could I mise our supply of breon at from 6 to 8 ceuts j per pound. When this is done we may prob I ably be aide to make the oue aird one hair j cents profit on cotton keep us out of debt and leave some pocket money. Apropos of this we know of a sow that the ov\ner moved G3 miles rather than sell for less than S20.00 although advised tu take Si 0.00. In two years her offspring were worth $178.25 at an actual cash valuation, after deductiag$20 00 with interest for first cost: and $40.75 of this was in money for pigs sold. The cost was merely nominal except when fattening and then did not reach 5 cents per pound. Since writing the above we notice that when the cotton that ii now open is harvested, there will hardly be 10 per cent of the crop to open. Miss Mamie ILighson of your town is visit? ing her grandmother, Mrs. IJughson Mr. and Mrs. Willim.nn of Charleston are visiting Mr. David Lide's family on Sammy Swamp. DEW. The Sequel to "An Interesting Meeting." PRIVATEER, S. C., SEPT. 22, 1384. Afr. Editer: Rev. B. C. Lumpiey baptized the twenty-four recent converts at Bethel Church on the 3rd Sunday. After the ordinance of baptism had bren performed, he preached to a large congregation on the character of theChrist ian's pilgrimage through the world. His sermon was fine, and con? tained practical thought for old as well as young. We regret not bei ug able to give a synopsis of his discourse. (There is an old adage that ''Children should be seen but not heard." This has become a myth in thc day when "Vuung America" asserts itself with so much force. We remember when about three years old trying to turn the house of God into a play house; but our maternal parent soon quietly led us by the hand imo the grave-yard where a switching was admin? istered that makes us feel warm under our jacket whenever we think of it, and caused us to remember that we go to church to hear and not to be heard.) In the series of sermons preached at Bethel about three weeks ago and the regular services since we were glad to notice the entire absence of excitement. Rev. R. W. Lide of Darlington preached nine sermons, Rev. J.H. Carpenter of Mayesville three, the pastor one, on the regular preaching day, and Rev. L. W. Bass of Manning preached last Thurs? day night. In every one of those sermons sensationalism was conspicuous by it? absence. They were all clear, forcible, and cattiest presentations of saving truths appeal? ing alike to the head aud the heart. We have always believed that no undue pressure should be bronght to bear upon the hearers and tlie results in this instance have con? firmed us in this opinion. There has been deep feeling shown by about as many more, and it is to be hoped that the good work will go on. CITIZEN. Programme Changed. Mr. Etlitor Will yon please announce that the Charity Ball advertised in the Watchman and Southron to take place at the r?sidence of Capt. P. P.
