Tbere was a meeting ia the Court Hon?? or. Saturday last of the Presidents of the Sub Alliances throughout the county, to get in? structions in the ?ecret work of the order. The negroes seem to think that the Farm? en* Alliance is f great institution. One of them when asked by a merchant of this city why he had joined the Alliance, said, that the Alliance had raised the price of cotton and lowered the price of meat. We made a mistake in giving the name of Harrison as that of the man who re? cently robbed the Stateburg Post Office. Harrison is innocent of that crime, and feels a little hurt lLat he should be named in a newspaper as a thief. The name ought to have been Henry Robinson. There was a Urge negro excursion over the Pinewood Road last Saturday. Great num? bers tock advantage of the cheap rate to come up to Sumter and lay ?ri their faU sup? plies. It might be well for our merchants to orgaiBiae these excursions more frequently and from all points along the roads. The large two-story building known as thc Manning Academy, belonging *o Mr. S. A. Nettles of the Manning Twits, was completely destroyed by fire on Friday ?as;. The origin of the tire is unknown to us This loss is particularly heavy just now, when -he school is in progress. We learn that Miss Grave?, the teacher o' art and music in the school lost ail tier *r models, many vaiua .> painting* and sketches-, * h ?ch were in the buiiding ai the time. Two music*! iusfra ments, piano and organ, belonging !<, Mr?. Aisbrooks, oue ..?; the teacUet?: were los?. Death of J. Blanding Upshur. We regret to learn that a telegram has been received here, "innouncing the death this" morning, o?" J. Blanding, eldest son of Mr. Thus. IVand Caroline ??. Upshur. in his six? teenth vear, ut Princess Aon, Maryland. It was believed by his physicians that he had successfully passed a long spell of typhoid fever, when suddenly heart failure ensued and he passed oif quickly. This comes as a heavy blow upon the pa? rents, ss, about two years since, they IDS'. their oddest daughter at the s*me age. We deeplv svmpathise with our friends in their sad bereavement, as well as with Co! Bund? ing, the grandfather of the deceased, who lately hus had se feral heavy blows. -L"-'.?"? . . - - Religious. Rev. E. D. Wells, pastor of the Baptist Church at Hnrvitis md Summerton, occupied the pulpit of the Baptist Church at this place on last Sunday ;.:??:t. Mr. Wells is a young man from North Carolina recently appointed to his present ch arges in Clarendon. Kev. Mr. Ayer, of Wedgefield preached in the Baptist Church in this city Sunday morn? ing last. The usual monthly union service will be heid at the Presbyterian Church on next Sun? day night. A representative of ?he faculty of Davidson College will be here during the convention of Harmony Presbytery :o convene at the Pres? byterian Ch nrth on Friday evening next, and will probably preach ou the subject of educa? tion on Sun day night. Ker. Mr. Mcalister the retiring moderator will preach the opening sermon of Presbytery ou Friday night. Rev. E. D. Wells and Rev. E. E. Ayres, recency reported pastorates at Summerton and at Westfield, preached curing the Bap? tist Union Meeting at Graham Church, last week, and rumor says, they have already won a warm place in the minds and hearts o? those who have heard them preach. Thanks to Mr. J. D. Craig for a bottle of Cedarine, a new polish, imparting a beautiful gloss to furniture, and also for a handsome tape measure. .Yr Craig's establishment is well stocked with goods seilend by one who has the eye of an expert in his business. In imitation of the Alliance men at Blacks burg, some time ago. the Alliances of Lynch? burg, Shiloh, Norwoods and Beulah, all of this count;-, united and sold their cotton at Magnolia.on 2?;h ult., in bulk. The cottou amounting in all to eighty-five bales sold at 10 33. It was bought by tocal merchants, as in the case of the Biacfcsburg sale. Improvements on the Post Office. Extensive and long-needed improvements are bekig made ia the post office here The money order department will be placed far? ther to the front of the building, where a new room is cow in course of construction for tlu3 purpose, this will give more interior space and elbow room to the post master and his clerks. In addition to this, forty-eight new letter boxes will be placed in position, tak? ing, up nearly the whole front on the piaza. Another driivery window, exclusively for the use of ladies, is also to be put in. An Accident on W. C. & A. R'wy. A most remarkable acc:cect occurred on Monday morning on the Wilmington, Colum? bia & Augusta Railroad at the Wateree tres? tle. The passenger train which passed here at5 A. M., while running at the rate of fifteen miles to the hour struck a big tree which had fa!i?n acrors the track. The engine was thrown from the track, but did not leave the trestle, dragging the train filled with passen? gers a distance of fifty yards over the cross ties. It looked for a while as if the entire train would go over the trestle into the swamp, but by a maneuver a<> remarkable as it was timely, the train, though, derailed, turned and ran out on a side trestle which had been constructed near the bridge and filled in with earth, where the cars, when tilted over, rested on the embankment instead of plunging into the swamp. The engine and two cars were upset, and slightly damaged. All the passengers escaped unhurt. A relief train was despatched at once hom h^re. Insurance Rates. There has b?eu some talk io insurance cir? cles of advancing the existing rates ten pit cent, on property in the city of Slimier along the line of business exposures. A representa? tive of the Southern Insurance Tariff Asso? ciation vlsi ?fed Sumter last week with a view of adjusting the r.:!es, on the ?cale of this threatened increase over existing rrtu-s. but m the instance of the local insurance agents con? sented to leave things in statu quo on the con? dition that the Cit} Council should have font more weils of the same kind as th.-.: no ..- in use near the Fire Engine company's building sunk on Main street. This the Council has agreed to do. We do not know, beyond a reluctant doubt, who it is that has caused this fresh agitation of the insurance question and water supply in our city. Instances in the recant past have very flatteringly demonstrated the efficiency of our fiie service. It is very wei! to have the addi'ional wells, but our insurance rates are already higher than they ought to be. If they are increased it will have a tendency to cripple the business of Sumter by forcing up the rents to cover the insurance. The insurance companies have evidently been made to be!?eve that oin- water facilities are inadequate. Tb s is thu probable and only reasonable explanation of the matter. We are curious to know "for certain," who their reporter can be. Italian E. E. Laborers. Mr. R. S. Prince Ivis, for the last few weeks, been negotiating aa engagement with a party of fifty Italians to work on the Eutaw ville ll. R. between this point aud Summer? ton. In r?ponse to a letter recrhed from the representative of the Italians, Mr. Pringle has sinned and sect forward a contract stipu? lating among other conditions, to give th'em continuous employme:>t on the R. R. for a period of four mon-hs if eo much time shall be required to complete the grading In the event the grad.ng on ?. bx. road shall be com? pleted beiore t?ie expiration of 'be time thus agreed on, Mr. P. "has obligated himself to procure work for them at the phosphate works near Charleston. Arrangements have been m;tde with a phosphate company 'o take the Italians should ir become necessary. Mr. Pringle, by this new arrangement for ?abor, will lender biaxseif independent of the uncer? tain and na rel table local supply o? hands, and will be enabled to rapidly push forward the work cf the road. After the expiration of their term of service with Mr. Pringle it might be- well for s >me of our local industries to experiment with the Italian. Ir: Florida where they are exten? sively employed, they prove industrious, eco? nomical, and more trustworthy than the usual laborers of the Sou:!). The italians are a gregarious people and wi!! have to bf em? ployed either together or in the sante commu? nity. In bands of the size of this gang thev are usually organized and commonly nave a na? tive priest along at the head as both spiritu? al and temporal guide. Healing Waters. . About eight miles from the city of Sumter, one hundred yardsin the swamp from the east? ern bank of Pbcotaligo, on the lan i- <,?".J. T. Scurry, ts situated a most wonderful spring of water possessing, unquestionably, remarkable medicinal properties. The lands on which th" spring is sit?an 1 is:-, part of the Scurry homestead and has been owned by that fam? ily for more than one hundred and thirty years. According tu family tradition the medicinal value of the wafer has been tnown for that length ot lin e. Tom Scurry, a val? iant soldier under Marion i'i revolutionary times dressed and bathed his Tory inflicted wounds in its healing Hood. The waters come straight from the bowels cf the earth, the depth being unfathomable. Easy of access, ir has been resorted to by the people of the Concord community for a hun? dred years, un i has invariably proven un? failing as a cute lor diseases ol the skin, wounds, sore eves and blood affections. It seems a specific lor diseases of the blood. The water looks pure an i clea.- when first taken from the .-pring, but when left exposed to the air for a tune a yellow scum seules on the surface. A jug of the water has been sent to this office to be transmitted lo the Department of Agriculture for analysis, which we will pub? lished when received from the Department. The tas?e of the water is not unlike thal of rain water and does not disclose ?he si nee of any m i nf-ral known to ;!??. It is rather remarkable that the existence cf a st'iin^r of water possessing the medicinal properties claimed for this Scurry spring should have been so long concealed from all except those in it? immediate vicinity. The water of the famous Bromine-Arsenic gorings of v irginia does bot betray ti) the taste the presence of .tny mineral. The prop? erties Were only discovered by chance use as drinking water by the proprietor of the springs. Ir may bc that- we have something in our mi.is'ip.?te e< ?:,;! lo these Wonderful i'.Tir"* ..?. Virginia Meeting of the Board of Trude. At a called meeting of the Sunter Board of Trade held ?ri tilt- Engine Kail on last evening about thirty members wi re present, Mr. Altamont \!os?s in the chair and Mr. Lawrence S. (.'arson acting as secretary. A communication was read from an Ice Factory Company, asking about Sumter as a place suitable for establishing a plant for manufacture of ice. Messrs. W . M. Graham and H. Schwerin were appointed by the Board to get up the information desired and trans? mit it to the Company. If thc inducements prove satisfactory the Ice Factory will bc established hcie by next summer. The matter of discrimination in freights against Sumter was discussed, and the chair? man of the R. R. Committee was instructed to attend a meeting of the R. R. Commis? sioners and lay the matter before them with a view of procuring some redress. The discrimination complained of is the charging of rates for short distances ovt-r the Roads out of proportion to charges for long distances, thus pacing the merchants of Sumterat a disadvantage in competing for jobbing trade which now goes to larger cities. The matter of the proposed Business Re? view of the city by the Watchman and South? ron was brought before the Board and on mo? iton of Mr. A. Rettenberg, freely and fully discussed by the members present, the follow? ing preambles and resolutions were unani? mously adopted : Whereas, A representative of the Watchman and Southron has laid before this Board a plan for advertising the general resources, business, trade, manufactories, and all the industrial, mechanical and commercial ad- , vantages of the City of Sumter, and Whereas, lt is the sense of this Board that such sn exhibit through the columns of that paper will result io great and material bene? fit to the general business and prosperity of the City, and is an enterprise that merits the hearty co-operation and pecuniary aid of this Board, now. therefore be it, Resolved, That the Board of Trade of Sumter does most cordially commend this spirit of enterprise on the part of the Watch? man und Southron and promises i's active co? operation with the propretor of that paper in making the proposed review a creditable and truthful exhibit of Sumter's trade, busi? ness and ad van rages. Resolved, 2nd. That Messrs. R. M. Wal? lace. A. Ryttenberg and Neill O'Donnell, and the president, A. Moses, bc, and '.hey a:e hereby appointed a committee representing this Board to act in concert with the Watch? man und Southron in obtaining and preparing for publication in said review ail necessary data concerning the City and its business. Resolved, 3rd. The som of $50 Dollars be and the said amount is hereby appropriated to be paid to the Watchman and Southron on receipt of N. G. Osteeu, upon the completion and publication of 2,500 copies of said review or trude issue, to be paid by the Committee a;.pointed in iesolut;on No 2, when said Com? mittee shall be satisfied that the conditions have been complied with. Retolced, 4th. That this Board cordially recommends to our business men and mer? chants, our citizens generally, and all manu? facturing corporations, to contribute liberal? ly to this enterprise and to subscribe liberally to the space iu said review, assuring theru that, in our opinion, it offers the best adver? tising medium yet presented to the people of Sumter.
