Ax A MPLS APOLOGY.-Through some unaccountable carelessness in the com? posing roora of a rural journal the obituary of one of t' e town's livest citizen's crept ir?to the paper one morn? ing, it was not many hours after the issue of the edition that the '"lamented" himself crept into the sanctum, and vig orcsly dctiMTjd?'d a correction ia the next morning paper. It appeared us fol? low in <r: '.Our y estere av's edition contained the announcement of the death of our esteemed feilow-townsuian Colone! Jones. It is with vrofound regret that we state tbat our announcement was rremotnre. The Colonel still lives, and we beg to assure him not only of our distinguiehed consideration, but that it shall be oar constant effort to see that he shall not le annoyed in this manner again until the last dread hour has in very truth arrived. To this end we have ordered the standing obituary of Colonel Jones to be distributed.'' Editor's Draicer, in IJarpcrs Magazine for January. Walterboro, a little country town in Colleton County, bas two barrooms which pay a license of ?1,500 each. Selling whisky must be a profitable business there. Four hundred attaches of the Ponce D. Leon Hotel at St. Augustine passed through Florence on Sunday morning 6th inst., aud were lunched at the eat? ing house. On the 1st instant President Ham? mett, of the Camperdown Mills, paid out $30,000 in dividends to the stock? holders. This is the semi-annual five per cent, dividend on the capital stock, of which $25,000 was to Piedmont stockholders and $5,000 to Camper? down holders.
