tho Band hero with scarcely tho requisite

aro to conclude that tho Band will bo
unable to furnish music at tho Democratic
mass meeting horo on the 4th of
October. Tho Crosbyvillo Band has
been invited and has signified its willingness
to bo present on that occasion
if tho proper arrangements arc mailo
for thorn. Will not tho Democratic

The Gamk Law.?For the information
of sportsmen and gunners, we
copy below the law in reference to the
season in which birds and other wild
game may be killed without incurring
the penalty of tho statute. Tho General
Statutes provide as follows:
Sec. 1694. It shall not be lawful
for any person in this Stato betweon
tho 15th day of March and tho 1st day
of October in any year hereafter, to
catch, kill or injure, or pursue with
such intent, or to sell or expose for
sale, any wild turkey, partridge, dove,
wuuuuuuk or (juuustiui.: aim any person
found guilty thereof snail be lined not
less than ten dollars or be imprisoned
not less than ten days, which fine, if
imposed, shall go, one-half thereof to
tho informer, and the other half thereof
to the school fund of the county whoreiirtlio
offenou was committed.
Tiib Market.?Cotton is now coming
in. town in considerabl6 quantities
every day, and it is selling very well
and at moderately good prices. It is
claimed by somo peoplo that Winnsboro
is not as good a market as somo
of tho neighboring towns. "We believe
that our friends aro incorrectly
informed and tho cotton merchants
hero challonge careful ant\ impartial
investigation. It may bo that in somo
l)lac08 tho vorv hifrhost ??rndns of
ton sell somcwlmt better, but it is
claimod by tlio cotton buyers here tlmt
tho average between tho prices for
good and bad cotton is better than in
ChcsteVanda8goodasin Columbia. Wo
hopo our cotton planters will, therefore,
"look before they leap", and not
givo Winnsbouo "tho go by" without
cause.
Good Roads.?Mr. Jas. Q. Davis
has been, for sevornl weeks past, traveling
over tho county, collecting the
county and Stato taxes, and ho reports
tho public highways in hotter condition
than they have been for years.
Wo aro glad to learn of (his, because
complaints of a general character

the county. Tho pre son I admirable
condition of tho highways is v. corhplimont
to the clllcicncy and fidelity of
tho present board of county commissioners;
tvnd thoso gentlemen, leaving
tho ofllco as (hoy will shortly do, merit
tho hearty woll-dono of tho good pcoplo
of Fftirfield county, regardless of
color or party aflllintion. Tho new
board to be elocted in Noyembor next
will continuo to carry on tho good
work begun and will doubtless sorvo
tho county faithfully.

tho Southern Presbyterian Church was
held at Catholic church, in Chester
county last week. Tho mooting was
an ordinarily full one, but. thoro was
littlo business of public interest' to
bo transacted. Tho only question of
much concern to tho peoplo generally
was the 0110 growing out of Dr. Woodrow's
riows on ovolution, which was

thovoto when connted showed that tho
resolution was lost. It was argued
for Dr. Woodrow that his viows upon
tho subject of evolution wero not oxtromo?
that thoy could bo reconciled
with tho Bible?that ho is a Christian
ovolutlonist.

was hold in tho colored Odd Fellows'
Hall and all over boforo any 0110 know
of it. It would bo Infinitely bettor for
tho Dcmocratio party if it had more
earnest and vigorous opposition. It
would hold together tho rank and Ulo
of tho party.
Tub A. It. Synoi>.~TIio Synod of
tho Associato ltoformed Presbyterian
Clin roll of tho South met in Loxington
county, Virginia, last week. Tho
Rev. R. G. Miller, pastor of Now
llopo church in this county, was elected
Moderator, and his bearing as presiding
oftlcor of that body was tho subject
of many llattoring comments. Mr. Millor
was very happy in reply to tho
address of the delegate from the Unitod
Presbyterian Church, ond lie is deservedly
esteemed one of the most
talented and promising young ministers
in his church. Tho meeting was
very largely attended and generally
regarded as one of the most interesting
for a number of years. Wo aro
sorry that wo cannot give a full account
of it. Tho Synod will meet

The Issok Squarely Made.?'Tlio
Republican Convention, recently in
session in Columbia, has nominated a
full State ticket and very properly
turned its back on the Fiddlers. Tho
following is tho ticket nominated: For
Governor, D. T. Corbin, of Charleston;
for Lieutenant-Governor, D. A.
Straker, of Columbia: for AdjutantGeneraj,
Gen. Carlos J. Stolbrand, of
Columbia; for Treasurer, C. C.Macoy,
of Chester; lor Secretary of State,
R. L. Smith, of Charleston; for Superintendent
of Education, tho Rev.
Joshua Wilson, of Florence; for Attorney-General,
Samuel W. Melton, of
Columbia; for Comptroller-General,
E. J. Sawyer, of Benncttsville. Tho
ticket is perhaps as good as could have
been nominated, considering the mateotnl
K
11UI I1VIU >v JI toil (I OU1VUL1UU UUII1U uu
made. Of Mr. Corbin it might bo
said that ho is a man of more than
ordinary ability and a known and
recognized partisan. It will be remembered
that this is tho samo Corbin
that unsuccessfully contested Senator
Butlor's scat in the United States
Senate. With tho exception of Mr.
Melton, and ho is a man of considerable
brilliancy, there is but little ability
represented in tho personnel of this
ticket. AVc are lmppy though that
this Convention saw proper to nominate
a ticket. It will fire tho Democratic
heart, smother the factional
murmurings of malcontonts and teach
the friends of our civilization to rally
to the standard and cause of the Democratic
party. Let every Democrat
wake up and see to it that tho State
and county canvasses are lifelike and
vigorous.
The Day of Atonement.?Yom
Kippur, or tho Day of Atonement, the
holiest day. in the calendar of the
Israelites, began at sundown on Sunday
evening, and closed at the same
hour on Monday. The stores of all
the Israelites heroworo closed, and the
day was duly observed by them. The
day is especially sacred among all the
faithful, and is always carefully observed.
Although God has declared
that on the Day of Atonement man
^1.^11 ~ A ~ ~ C. 11 i I ? -i
5)111111 UlUUC lUI'lUI 1118 81113) U1U pL'OpilClB
and sages of Israel show that the
declaration refers only to transgressions
of tho Divino law. Sins between
man and his fellow man are not forgiven
unless every reparation 1ms bcou
made to tho wronged party. It is,
therefore,, obligatory upon every son
of Israol who has wronged his neighbor
by word or deed to solicit his forgivncss
before the advent of the Day
of Atonement in order that ho may
appear in the prcsenco of bis God with
I n_ aIoai* vai/1 4a
| t? vav??k vv/???jv*vii?vuj T VUi VI VilV/UVyV IV
his fellow man. It is also the duty of
every man to forgivo those who nek
it, for if ho is not lenient to the feelings
of others he cannot expect that
tho Almighty will extend mercy to
him. God has proclaimed that on this
dny Israel ''shall afllict his soul;" that
ho shall bo dotachcd from all sonsual
onjoyment; that ho shall abstain from
food and wator for twenty-four hours,
and also from all association with
worldly affaire, and that his soul shall
bo wrapt in holy communion with its
Maker, and pour forth its tribute of
slnore repentance unalloyed by any
feeling that may diminish its purity.
It was on this day that the High Priest,
clothed in white robes, cmblomatio of
purity, ontorcd tho sanctum sanctorum
of tho Temple at Jerusalem, and
with oyes raised to heaven and hands
to the forehead, forminc thof peculiar
flguro of tho priesthood, invoked for
tho assembled thousands of his peoplo
that sacred benediction which has
boon incorporated into tho liturgy of
almost every religious demonination.

of work that was done by tho one tlioy
loved. Tliey are all memorials of their
dear relative.
"Wo grievo not that tiio woods shall soon
By birds and blossoms bo forsaken,
But, oh! wo griovo for voices hushed,
That never, never shall awaken.
Wo miss tho eyes that nevermore
Shall Hash their love-li^ht into ours;
We sigh because they come no more,
In time of frost?in ?ime of ilowers."
Mrs. Anderson was the eldest daughter
of Col. Win. Kinenid, and she was tho last,
but one, in tho State, of the proud race
who love that name. About fifty years
ago sho was converted, and lired such a
lifo that death found her not unprepared.
She had many noble qualities as a Christian
woman, among which wore her kind
hospitality and exalted power of entertaining.
Long will her relatives and friends
cherish in tender remembrance the silver
treasures of her timely words. The Heavenly
wisdom that controlled tho heart and
tonguo of our friend was "pure, peaceable,
gentle, easy to bo entreated, full of inorcy
and good fruits, without partiality and
without hypocrisy," She bore her sufferings
with Christian fortitude. "It is sown
a natural body, it is raised a spiritual
body." Then, dear friend, wo will bid you
a long farewell, looking forward with tho
eye of faith to a meeting in tho bright
hereafter. a fuiknd.
