The Speaker need not ha?e been so very rood:-s? in claiming for his Council that it has done more to advance our cicv thm any Council that has preceded it. The facts bear out the .assertion. Swamp Lands. Among the no-ab-e arrivals at the Jervey House appears the nam?* of R B. Do'sey, ot Bay City. Michigan.

In a local last week the Watchman and Southron said something about Sumter's lack of suitable hotel accommodations, which ..some faultfinders are endeavoring to coostrue into a disparagement of the Jervey Hollie and the manj excellent boarding houses in th* city. This construction of the tocal referred to is a strained one. The thousands of drum? mers and other business travellers who often $?o out of their way to stop at the Jervey House, sometimes travelling fifty miles in order to spend their Sundays there, will testify that '-Mine host': Jervey keeps an ex cellent hotel for the kind of patronage for which his hotel is adapted and intended. But we had reference to an altogether dif ferent kind of a hotel, i-.xch a ho'ei as High? land Park in Aiken. specialty adapted to the -aecomraodation of Northern invalids, pleasure seekers, sportsmen a:id those who seek the South to" escape the rigid weat-her of the SiorXi. Tfeese classes of travellers go only to those places where they can get . ail the ; comforts, elegancies and luxuries of the homes -they leave behind them. Ha* Sumter a iio'el : or boarding house that can offer these induce? ments? If not, then why snarl and saap at the iT'ttchman and Southron for saying that Sumter needs soch an hotel? We repeat ir now and propose to tepeat it unt;l o'.e J* built, a grand hotel is becoming au abso? lute necessity to Sumter. ---~.?'"****??? ?II Temperance Lecture. Rev. T. H. Pritchard, D. D , of Wiln.ino. ton, N. C., delivered a lecture on the subj - t of temperance, or rather, intemperance, in Music Hall last night to a lar^e audience. The lecture w*s a good one and particularly effective by reason of the conspicuous absence from i? o? that vituperation and denunciation go C0?moo with temperance lecturers arid which always mars the effects sought to te produced. Dr. Pritchard had nothing harsh or unkind to say against the unfortunate tuan who drinks or bim who sells liquor, but his lan? guage was from Ins great heart, full of charit;, forgiveness and compassion. He condemned the law which licenses vice and pictured with ' impressive rhetoric the mary mournful trage- I dies which wait on the lives of the moderate drinkers. His lecture was impressive and we trust fruitful in good results. His audience ought to feel grateful to that big hearted ci ti- j jen who paid out of his own 'parse Dr. j Religious. *Tbere will be a special service at the I>Hp tis: Giturch on Sunday evening next.
