Geological Surveying Corps, lias just Placed the Meridian Stone in Union. M r. .Sledge Tatem, Topographer on the U. S. Geological survey, from Washington,accompanied by' Mr. C. C. Caldwell, arrived in Union Tuesday night for the purpose of establishing the meridian line and setting up tho meridian stone at this point. They began their observation of the North star ut eight o'clock, and the work was continued for an hour and a point was located in front of and to tho left of the first Graded School building. This point was marked and they retired until three o'clock Wednesday morning, when they returned to verify the records by further observations.

However, they are a couple of very pleasant gentlemen and are very kind tagiye any information required.

Wo just simply take his word for all he said about the business, the only appreciable difference between ' he and we is, he knew what he was talking about?we didn't. We gathered, however, that these j gentlemen, sent out bv the government to establish this meridian line 5 and set up these stones, have been at a work a month in this state covering . an area of several thousand square miles along a belt some sixty odd Tr 5 ? ? ??% fV?n triA . miles wiae. navmg sci up w.~ ? n ridian stones in Columbia, Lexing ^ ton, Chester and Spartanburg, the] ? completed their work by setting u] b the last stone in Union.

Some excitement was caused by the developing of a case of small pox in tl.e Asylum at Columbia this week. The negro who broke out with the disease was one who was sent there from Union j ill. The Columbia correspondent reporting the matter to the News and Courier says: "The authorities in Union are not blamed, because they did not know that smallpox existed in the jail. As soon as smallpox showed itself the negro was taken out on the farm and isolated, but it was too late, and sluco then three CbS.is have been discovered in the male ward for colored people.
