Some days ago a colored man found a grave in th? woods near Bloom Hill, and some.rumors floating around were shaped in to consistency and developed the following facts: Tbat an infaut, tbe illegitimate child of & white woman'the neighborhood, had died and was buried there by friends to the mother. Rumor al.;o intimated 'that. the. in fant came to its death by foul means, and to settle these matters Trial Justice Cain held an inquest/ first meeting at the grave last Friday,:and afterwards in Sum ter yesterday, to complete ihe investigation It was proved to tbe satisfaction of the jury that the child was dead at birth/and was buried iu secret to avoid disgrace^ Co. D. 2d S. C, V. . The survivors of this gallant command met at landing's Mill, last Wednesday, vfor their annual re-union. Col. J. S..Richardson, the President, was absent, and the Tice President, Col. J. D. Graham presided. Fifteen survivors responed to the roll call. letters of regret weH rea<from several- absect comrades; a4 committee was appointed to draft suitable resolutions upon the death of their comrade, J. P. Ard;-the Historical Committee was continued, and urged to per form the work laid cut for them ; the prided rolls were distributed among the members; and the meeting adjourned for dinner. Tbe Survivors had as guests Rev. John Kershaw, son of their first Colonel Judge J. B. Ker shaw, aod the W. $ 8., representative. The dinner was good in quality and abundant in quantity. _We happened to be placed near oar- friend,: Mr. Kershaw, and" were well pleased with tbe arrangement, for knowing that preachers had a. national reputation for being good trenchermen, we expected proper encouragement in our laudable efforts to re duce the quantity of roast chicken, baked chicken, chicken pie, barbecue, bam, vegeta bles, pies; &c, but to oursurprise he ate just like common folks aud we had to stop with our task incomplete. After dinner, some fine watermelons, the thoughtful gift of Captain Brownfield, of Cat cha II, were thoroughly en joyed. The Company held a meeting in the after noon, at which time the 1st Wednesday in August, -1886 as the date for the next re-un ion. The day was most pleasantly spent. Many incidents, both grave and gay, which happen ed around the camp-fires more than twenty years ago were recalled*. Battles, r/ftreats, marches, bivouacs were gone over, and good fellowship reigned supreme. A plesant incident of tbe re-union was' the attendance of Mr. Wm. J. O'Neil, who is now living in Mississippi, and who cam? from his distant home to meet his old comrades in arms. He received a warm greeting. Col. J. D. Graham was elected President and Mr. : M. DeLorme, re-??ected Clerk and Treasurer. The benediction was pronounced by Rev. John Kershaw in the absence of the Chaplain, Rev. J. L. Bartlett, whose feeble health, much to th? disappointment o? the Company, prevented h?3 attendance. ? Criticism. Mc Editor: On your 'first- page in this. weeks' issue, there is a clipping from tbe Car - oli na Spartan, in which the editor of that journal waxes witty and fervent ou a subject of which be bas no apparent knowledge. As one who never has bad and can never, of course, have any connection with the Citadel Academy, I would like to suggest tbat be gain some adequate information on the subject of the trouble, from both tbe Board of Visitors and Cadets of the Institution, before launch ing again upon the uncertain sea of witty rhetoric, lest be not only wreck himself upon the bidden rocks of falsehood and misrepre sentation, but also guide public opinion, or such portion of it as he may influence in like dangerous channels. There never can be a *'rebel! ion" (?) con ducted on more orderly and gentlemanly principles than was the late so miss-called in cident at the Citadel, as both the faculty of the Institution and the Board of Visitors must testify. * We have received from the American Com mittee?Richard Butler Secretary?a fac simile, in slightly reduced size, of the Bartholdi Statue. As we have it on top of our desk, our readers will understand that it is smaller than the original. Attention is called to tbe advertisement in this issue of tbe new coal depot in rear of Market.

Edifort: In~my *Jast communication I stated, {asThav?^ince been-informed ? erro neously, tbat Miss Leila Melton was at home from College. The impression was made on my mind by a friend who was giving rae the names of some of those recently at home from school. Among others he mentioned the name of Mr. VValter'Melton (of Wofford Col ilege) and not listening as closely as I should have done, I mistook tbe name and three days later committed the inexcusable blunder. Assuring all concerned, that it was uninten tional, I ask that my error may he charitably construed. Miss"Leila Melton graduated with distinction at the Columbia "Female College a year ago, and of course has not recently re turned from College. In addition to those previously mentioned, Miss Abbie Reams is. at ber home from Wil liamston College. Miss Emma Sarter of Union County accompanied Miss Reams home and is spending some days there. Miss Lizzie McKnigbt, of Clarendon, is vis iting her sister, Mrs. Samuel Barrett. Miss Pettigrue, of Florence, is visiting at Mr. J. E. RaskinX and Misses Ella and Florence Work man, of Camden, are visiting friends in Bish-. opviile. The young ladies and gentlemen of the neighborhood assembled at the residence of Mr. J. E.Raskins, on last Friday night, (in vitations bad previously been issued, by tbe committee of arrangements, eonsisting of several joung men). where I am told every thing passed off pleasantly and the hour for breaking up came only too soon for many present, ? I hear there is to be another party at the residence of Mr. J. is. Carnes to-night. The Bisbopville base ball club are practic ing, for another match game to be played with the Stokes Bridge club, of Darlington, Saturday next. Tbe President of the club tells me they do not propose to get beaten tbis time. A house occupied by a negro woman with three, children, near Mr. Joshua Marsh's, was destroyed by fire a few days ago. The moth er was away from borne, and the children barely escaped with their lives. The sick cbHd of Mr. Preston Floyds, spo- , ken of in my last, has since died, and Mr. and Mrs. Floyd are at tbis time extremely ill with the same disease. Also two negro fam ilies on the same place ^re very sick, in like manner. Seasons continue good and the crops of tbe diligent planter promise an abundant yield. During tbe past week ? have travelled is??und some^a^?<^ne"pr9Spect that_greets the ^eoj^Bver^ hand is certainly rcheenmji?- ?. look upon. I would say who I thought had ? the best crops, aud make some guesses as to the probable yield of some fields of coru I have seen, but some one-might take exception and therefore ? desist. Will-risk the opinion however, tbat near me is a farm, cultivated by two horses, which I am confident will make 550 bushels of corn, and twenty-five bales of cotton; another 2 horse farm will' make, if seasons continue,. 35 bales of cotton ; and 175 bushels of corn. (Said farms are not situated in tbe Bisbopville cotton belt either.). Most farmers have commenced to plow over their cotton for tbe last time. Mr. Editor, by omitting to insert tbe word *'Later," as written between the first and last part of my last communication, I seemingly ? asserted that the weather was cold and hot, dry aud wet, &c, at tbe same time. Please give me the benefit of what accuracy maybe due me, as the critic seems to be ever on tke alert, to scrutinize, analyze, emphasize, and criticise what I write. When the Ancient Fathers wanted to illustrate hum?n nature as it then exjsted "They made tbe figure of a man whose proportions were very Iarsre in front, but quite small behind."?signifying the carrying of-the faults of others before, their own behind. I wonder if there are auy of those kiud of people living now. L.

We try hard to keep out error.?Ed.] Xiynchbur? ?tems. , LYXCHB?RG, S. ?. July 20, 1885. Mr. Editor : 11 bas been soma time since J bad the pleasure of writing to your valuable paper,_and as everything is quiet, I will en deavor to give you a few dote from our little Village and its surroundings;. ...... Weare having plenty of rain, and another . crop of grass is flourishing. The crops though are fine aud in good condition, and som? of. the farmers are through plowing. : Mr. Jake Keels has tbe best crop I bav? seen this year.. I bad the,pleasure of attendjng a picnic at Mrs. M. Wheeler's in. Clarendon County, on the 17?a. There were between one and two hundred persons present. Rations were plen-. tiful and of the best. Every oue did justice' to the occasion. Crops are fice all th? way down there. I am afraid that the high season will cut our watermelon crop short, as it will cause the vines to grow so fast that they will wear tbe little melons out dragging them along. W. M. Keels is having brick made as he expects to have a brick store built by Fall. Our steam mill men are getting things in readiness for the coming cotton crop. J. W. Hodge has bought a new cotton press. The health of our community is very good. There are a few deaths among the colored people. Mr. Editor, we had up an argument some time ago, whether tbe Earth revolved around tbe Sun or the Sun around the Earth. Will be glad to bear your opinion and others on tbe subject. Mrs. Fannie Sease, of Bamberg, Barnwell County, S. C, has been ou a visit to to her parents Mr. and Mrs. Kistler. Fruit is beginning to come in and we can soon sing, a Tittle more cider do. Lyncbburg, Fair Hope and Beulah Presby terian churches were fortunate in securing tbe services of Rev. D. X. LaFar. He is liked by all who know bim. As it is hot I will close. Yours iruly, SAMBO. [Years ago a celebrated colored divine of Richmond, Va., proved to*his own satisfac tion and the satisfaction of a few admiring friends, who even yet approvingly quote his immortal saying, "De Sun do move," that tbe Earth is stationary gi^~fe tMi-aj^other heavenly bodies revolve around it every 24 hours. An English Philosopher is in this country now engaged in tbe effort of proving tbe same startling phenomena. With these illustrions exceptions, tb? rest of the world are of the opini?n that the Earth, while turning on its own axis every twenty-four hours, thereby making day and night, has . an annual motion around tbe Sen in a well 1 defined orbit, Completing its revolution m 365 days and a fraction less than six hours.? Ed.J LYNCHB?RG, S. C., July 20, 1885. Mr. Editor : Times are so dull, and so little of importance is traospiflpg in tbis commu nity, that a correspodent will have to exert himself considerably to get up enough news to make one square of items. Crops and farming have become monotonous, but it is so satisfactory to have and see crops growing ?such as we have in tbis section?that one can hardly refrain from keeping ibe ball of discussion in motion, so I will say the prospects of corn and cottou bere are flattering iudced ; and if favorable seasons j contiue, we will bave nothing to complain of at harvest time. Tbe reccut heavy rains have caused cotton to take up a good deal of sap and unless rain continues to come from now r ' .""?'.? ~". oh, at the proper time during the season, it will be greatly injured. The pea crop was planted so late that it is impossible to tell much about it as .vet, ex cept as to thestand, which is very good. Watermellons, apples and peaches have be gun to come in. They are not very good in quality but tbeqtiantity is all right, and will keep the howling "wolf from the door" until we can get "life preservers," which time, I hope, is not far in the future. The small quantity of corn bought and sold in this immediate neighborhood indicates that the farmers have come to tbe wise con-? elusion, of planting more grain, and less COt ton. Many are speaking of planting wheat the coming winter, as the conveniences for having it manufactured into delicious flour is so much better than it bas been since the war. The value of resuming this old plan cannot be over estimated. The large amount of money annually spent for provisions will be kept among us, to be appropriated in a man ner that will prove to the betterment of our condition, and besides, we will be freed from the heavy burden of making cotton at a cost of eight cents per pound to purchase that which we can so easily and conveniently pro duce at home so mach cheaper. Almost every farmer in the County can (if he were disposed to do so) select a few acres of rich land and by planting it in wheat make enough "Sour with little labor and expense for domestic use. Mr. William Tcnstall, a whilecitizen of this community, was arrested a few nights ago on a charge of bigamy. It seems, as the rumor goes, that a previous attempt had been made to "arrest bim, but the deputy, failing to find him, returned home ; but last Tues day night a party of four, headed by a color ed deputy, surrounded the house in which he was staying and captured him, without the sligbest resistance on his part. It is said that be was taken from the house, and bonnd with ropes then placed in a buggy and car ried before Justice McDonald where be gare bond to answer to the charge?t the next term of Court. It does not seem to me that such rough usage was entirely justifiable to the accused since it yet remains to be proven that he is guilty of the charge. . A colored man, who it is said nailed from Florence, S. C, was drowned in Lynchis River to-day wbile riding in a boat. Up to the time of this writing, his body has not been recovered. ' No one her? knew bis name. ' The Trustees of the .Lynchburg Academy bave been successful utprocuring tbe services of Prof. I. C. Buchannan, of Winusboro, S.

We are so near laying by our crops that we can see light beyond, and are treating our selves toa little rest; but this must not last long or we will feel onrselves so strong that we will be tempted to challenge Sullivan, the pugilist, and worse than that, we may bave rf? ?onfffml w?frh^w^hf?'r^frftti tea^SP^M country more injury than ring fighting^Fp mean laziness. Yonrs, ZEB. j ^? ? ? - Mayesville Items. Mayesyille, S. Cr, July 20,1885. Mr. Editor: Crops are still fine, thanks to the kind Providence which has given us pro pitious seasons. We are looking for a big boom in trade this Fall. The U.
