(Vnti.r. the people are discussing the impropriety of burying the dead amidst the lu iues of citizens, and trying to devise a way tj prevent it, a lady has decided for herself, and bought a lot in the Town Cemetery with the intention of removing her dead n xi wiutcr. If others will do likewise, or accept free lots ut the Cemetery, tlie perplexed question will "outi be settled. 'i'jtose wli<> are opposed to removing the dead, might select lots for future ioteroicnts at the Cemetery. ll.wt; you ever seen a phonograph ? Have you even KJisou'a latest ? It is a little instrument run by electricity, that reproduces with exactness whatever is uttered in it whatever it hears, so to speak A minstrel can he reproduced?a comic eong, a speech #ything in fact The sweetest music can reproduced with the exactness with which it was played. It is a wonderful instrument aod the more you see of it the more you like it. Mr. J. C. Kumsey, the agent tor I hem, has ons here now, and after next >Sunday will operate it at Mr. J, K Mat his' store. for a nominal sum you cuu hear the -wcetest music and the funniest songs and -leeches that you ever heatd in your life, l)o you read the advertisements in the | pat crs ? When you have anything to buy, you can sometimes pave time and Double by finding out beforehand who sells the article you desire. Due excellent source of inforinution in this particular is the advertisements in the papers. If you glance over all of the advertisements you will probably find that some of the t longs that you want can be found at more than one place. So much the better for you, you have that much larger stock from which to select. If you dou't tiud just what you want at one place, why you can go to another. If you have the same experience here, however, that w# | have had lately, you will not want to go < from one store to another, for the variety i that will be laid before you in the first store i you enter will be enough to bewilder you, i and your greatest trouble will be to decide ' which to take. Of course you read the i Dry Goods advertisements. Well, the grocery advertisements are just as important. Tnere you have placed before you just what is on the market and whore it can bo found, and by reference to the market prices which will be found in most papers, you can tell about what it will cost. These things being known you can decide intelligently about what you want for the day. You know sometimes the appetite craves one thing, and another time it craves another. That is just i natures way of telling us that we ought to | have a variety and not eat the same thing all , the time. It is not necessary to have a great i variety at each men', but the meals ought not to be exactly the same thing from one month's cud to another. Most housekeepers know \ this, but sometimes they prefer to havo the ( same thing, rather thun send a servant all t over tow n trying to find something else. ( Well that trouble can be avoided ia the way ( 1 havo indicated. Yen can see what is 011 1 the market, and what it is worth, and can \ send for just what you want. t The newspaper is to the housekeeper 1 what the bill of fare is to the traveler. You 1 can pick out what you want and get it. 1 If you have anything to buy in any line, g it might save you something to glance over t the advertisements in your weekly or daily g newspaper, or your monthly magazine, and it would not take much of your time. 0 Tut Congressional fight in the Ashland C District Kentucky was the subject of a good deal of interest all over the United States, u and if we may take the views presented in the papers as a fuir example of popular 1 sentiment the people at large of our nation ^ have sanctioned the Ashlaud districts course and approved of the verdict which sends the Colonel from the Halls of the Nations g Legislature. Whatever Col. Brcckcnridgc s idea way ho the course of his family aud ^ some of his friends since the election show Si that their idea of public oflicc is a very low. They seem to consider public oftice about , . ... 1< the same as a piece ot private property, to which a man may acquire a right by simple ^ undisputed possession for a while, by pre- , scription as the lawyers say. It seems as it" ^ they considered that Col. Hrcckcnridge had a right to the chice and that he was being , defrauded out of his rights by those who were voting for Owens. Consequently they ^ wero very angry when the Col. was defeated "v w " o to wage an open war against all of the Owens men. ^ Wo fear, however, that lucre are very few of us who cm throw stones at the Breckeuridge men. Their i lea is just what seems to be the popular one, gone to seed. In this day of push and scramble for wealth, there are many who see nothing in anything ' except tlie money. The salary attached to ^ the oflice is what makes politic* so alluring to them. If courso they are honest men and a will do their best, but they have lost s ght ^ of the object of the cilice. There arc others * t c of course, and we are glad that there are i t ? s numy ui iiii'.-u 100, who nave quttc ft iliHercut idea of office. "A public office is n pub- ^ lie trust," and tlie question between two men j ought to be. which is the fittest, taking nil ^ things into consideration? Not which one the ollice would fit. but which one would fit e tho ollice. Not which one needed the salary ^ the most, but which one could perform the ^ duties most efficiently. Until we get back to this primitive and correct idea and rote accordingly, we will never have any pence in ^ politics because in choosing we will have no standard by which to be guided. - - ? i Tut nut-to-be-downed I)r. l'ope is still in the race for tho Governorship. He's alight weight and a long way in the rear, but lie's toting his own gig. From what we have " read of Dr. Dope he seetns to be a sort of a J "san-guy-eu" tsanguioc) man. You know what a "san-guy-en" man is .' lie is a man that'- got everything to-morrow nud nothing to-day. A "san-guy-cu man in politics is a man who counts his own votes twice, doesn't count the other fellow's at all, and ? tlien considers himself unanimously elected. ,| All that's to-morrow, though, he's got nothing to-day. A "san-goy-en" man is no ford because if lie were he would learn something by experience for you know they say that even a fool will learn by experience. A a "san-guy cu ' man really never considers the presetit long enough to have any expert -j eueo. His experience is always to-morrow and its aiwavs bright. \V? i<na?> ? ....... o - - " ' mill who spent a fortune mi l a life-time tinker- j, ing on an old machine, trying to invent ( something, lliat never amounted to a hill of ( beans. Hcfiw t une and millions in it for next year, next month, next week. V?nt he v always saw what he wanted to sec and rofused to sec what was. Now, you know with I . all of that experience a fool would Intro I learned tumething, but this man guy-en" man and couldn't have an expert eucc. It is 'juite probable that if a "sun j guy-en man could just have one good | round experience and realize now just one i time he would learn as much from it as an , ordioary tfool We think the neighbors i ought to citch overy "sin-guy-en" man and i hold him d >wn just once and let him have ti an experience and ?ec if it would not bring t him around alright. A 's in guy en" man j can work out a fortune on a piece of paper j of course, and be in the full enjoyment of } it, while an ordinary man is looking for a job. l>on t be a ' sin-guy en ' mun unless \ you have plenty of money and friends | enough to keep you out of the lunatic ? asylum. J. < Is accordance with the call published is our 'ast hsue, quite a iiuuibcr of prominent oi?izciim met in the Courthouse last Monday ?t 1 o'c'ock, p. m., for t lie purp so of organizing a county society auxiliary to the l*i#<lrnont Colonization Society. Mr. Wni. Muuro was called to the chair, and Mr. K. Nicholson was asked to act as Secretary of the meeting Mr. Muuro then real from Tiik Union Timbs the resolutions adoptel at Itock Hill, authorizing the present meeting and stated the object of the meeting. He said that we differed among ourselves about politics and religion and a great many other things, but that there was one thing on which he was sure we would all agree, and that was that we had tbo best country on the face of the earth, llut our country needed more people to develop it. We need more good population. That South Caro'ioa had not been filled with population, not because her advantages niul splendid rc Hourcc* were not known an?l bill I because she had not been a* cordial in her j invitation to strangers as some other sections. He said that the North nnd West had been populated because their States bad for a long time bad agents at Castle Garden, and even in the foreign countries, whose duty it was to turn the tile of immigration towards their own sections. South Carolina had never had any such agents, and, consequently, had not bgfn populated. That there were some^io--*l"'unts that wc did not want an l^^M^^xofTTitve. We did not want Holes or Hungarians, hut wo wanted good and substantial men. Tho object of the :oloni/.ition Society was to bring such among i?. Money would bo needed to carry out he enterprise, and ho hoped every land>wner and citizen would aid by giving as uuch ns lie might be able, lie said that it vas not a money making scheme, except in o fur as it was money to every landowner o have his land cultivated. The object was o buil l up the Piedmont section of the State, eve! up the galleys, and make red hills ;i?e place to waving fields of corn and rhent. 11c enumerated some of the advan;es that we have over the North and West nd sail that fire and faunae ridden people tily needed an invitation, And they would i one with their flocks and their herds and 1 heir money. ' After Mr. Munro had finished he called ' poti Mr. D. I'. Duncan, who was sitting in ! lie audience. Mr. Duncan said that he was ] cartily in for whatever pertained to the upuilding of tho country, and that he was rell pleased with the immigration move, i lent. That he did not want foreign iuinti- ! rants, because they do not make gool citi?ns, but would be glad to get the sturdy iriuers of the I.'orth and West to come aud ' in Kiiinti fuiuntv lie said that a great many farmers were J ;aving the Northwest on account of the uM climate. lie said that mauy of tlicoi < nd money, and were in every way desira- i le immigrants, that we could get them if we I rould put forth an effort, but if we neglect o do so that they would go to Mississippi, j irknnsas. Texas, and Indian Territory. lie aid that they do not ooine here because they io not know anything about us, and have iot been invited. Col. Duncan was in favor t semilog men oil' tnere to toll them about ur country and invite them to come and see 1 or them?elves. lie said that he had L'OOo 1 cres of land and that ho would be glad to 1 ell half of it and use the money in cultialing the other half more efficiently. Mr. II. Nicholson spoke next. lie ex" 1 lained what class ..f immigrants the Soci- 1 ty proposed to bring here. Said that we 1 fere not after foreign immigrants at all, did iot want them, hut wanted those Western 1 nd Northern nations who were discontented 1 rith their present homes ou account of the 1 old. tlie forest tires, the drouths, etc. lie ' aid that the object of The Piedmont Coloni- ! ation Society was to advertise the l'ied- ' nont section by distributing literature lescribing it and giving its advantages and ' lso by sending out agents, lie said that ' lie object of the county Auxiliary Societies fas to collect data in regard to the different 1 eetions, to secure options on land and to ' relcomo the immigrants that may come ' tiiong us. He sui I that each of the ten ' ounties represented in the colonization ocicty was expected to raise **>UU, and it 1 ras hoped that as many as possible would ' ontribute. He said that it w is very much ecired that all land owners and nil unn.l ili/.en-* in 1 ce<I should belong I > the Aux- | iary Society on 1 have a good word for the lovenu'iit, laying special sires* on the tact iut it did not c<>st anything to join, lie icq asked that nil who were willing to giye ic Society their support, would signify it y signing a paper to that cllect, which lie tiered. A good many signed the paper. lo don't know how many, as we di<l not onnt them. l'ho orgauizati ?n was then comple'cJ by io election of Capt. F. M. Fai r, President: 1 nd Mr 11. Nicholson, Secretary and Treas- 1 rer. i)n motion a committee of three, consistig of Me?"rs. T. I.. Maine. p. M. t'olien nd t'apt J. T. I>otiglass, was appointed to atnc vice presidents from each township, here being no further business tlic meeting djonrncd. We arc glad to sec that so much interest s being taken in this subject. We believe bat we all ought to give it our support. It s not a catch penny contrivance. We arc lot required to spend any money, though ve can contribute if we desire. It is for ihe ipbuilding of uiir section, and let us give all he encouragement we can to tlio.se men vho have the work to do.

The Villago Cemetery. nni'?..vu ojr ...^Moenuttlui worK receim/ lone at our town cemetery we were induced lo euquire by what kind of co-operation it was accomplished. We learned that the grave yard is over >uc hundred years old and uutil recently it was a wilderness of briars and undergrowth, where cows grazed and other intrusions nadc it a disgrace to civilization. Some of our women interested, called a neeting an 1 formed a society for the purpose of reclaiming it, and laying it out into Irivcs, walks and burial lots. This after tird labor and much expense they have tucceeded in doing, changing it into a place )f beauty. Within this enclosure there are two acres. Jno was given for a grave yard and the )ther for a church. The North side is the reave vard whera tho Inir'ml l.??j ?r,? ?n gifts. The South side. known as the "glebe land." on which the oil church stood has been entrusted to the Cemetery Committee by the trustees of the |>roperty. l'his part of the grouu 1 has been worked out to a beautiful plan, forming desirable burial lots which they have valued at the nominal sunt of 'en dollars each, appreciation f which is shown by the popularity of these lots. This fund is n'cissary to aid the society whosi inemheis contribute monthly assessments for the purpose of keeping the enclosure. drives, wa'ks ami nurinl lots in proper conditions, it is through the tintiring efforts of a few earnest women that this work has been accomplished. We would add that Mrs. Judgo Wallace is the President of this society, Mrs. J. L.
