f HE ADVERTISER. ?Tenais? $3,00 per Annum. : ^'ll \T~--? - ~ More Cotton Stealing. On Saturday night last Gabe- Johnson and Jack Anderson, colored, stole a bale of cottofl&am Jlr. B^F. Watson of the Mino Ci#ek section, and traded the same off for goods to a merchant a few miles distant. Since then Mr. Watson has re covered his cotton, and lodged the cotton thieves in jail to await their trial. - Cotton and Gin, House Burnt* . On. Thursday night last, the 4th, Mr. Lewis D. Lan dru m had the misfortune to have his Gin House destroyed by fire, and with it some eight bales of Cotton, the property of Messr^Ho ward &. Lan drum. The fire was clearly the work of an incendiary. Loss between twelve and fifteen hondred dollars. t*ST Capt. F. A. Belanger, CountyjAu ditor, will accept our thanks for the in teresting statement on our first page in reference to the taxable property of Edge field. This table will be found-interest ing, and we direct: the attention of our readers thereto. <jL?Km It*m? i I The toy dealers are getting ready for Christmas. Indeed there are signs of Christmas on every side. The real thing, however, will not be here until the ju veniles commence ''tooting." The Baptist children - are to haye a Christmas Trw in their Church. Itougbt to be made ? combination affair. Noth ing is prettier, if well managed. Now, as the almanacs say, double lock your fowl house doors! We do.not mean against the xhildren, however.. For wa do not presume there will be any fowls on the Christmas Tree-except perhaps some of Ciisby & Lynch's candy roosters. The Sabreurs are to meet on Saturday next, to decide whether or not they shall have a Tournament and Ball. We pre dict they will have. both. They ought to have a Ball at least-and a pretty ono in the Masonic Hall-with festoons, and flowers, and Christmas berries, and the Miaseltoe bough, and brilliant lights, and brilliant nvisic, and all that! Get ready your white kids, gloves and slippers and as for your tari o tan e trains, let them stretch out at least three -yards on the floor. 'The fon^r^Re^Mtier-abd the more fun in jumping over them, and around them,,and on them. ; Vj. { r i . We hear of two young gentlemen quite~y?tmg"and'**1iarmless n? doves" who wish to give a large egg^nqgg and fruitjp*art,y<to their youugfiiends, of both sexes, but are detecredTjeCause th ey. have no wives to receive the guests and do the honors. _Tn short, they want a female "wise serpent" to enact this graceful part for them. Come forth, therefore, ye serpents, and volunteer. Do not Jet us be cheated out of the egg-nogg. Possum suppers are now "?U vogue. Mr. Johnnie Harrison, who sends us, from his Bar, the most beautiful and de licious mixed drinks that ever gurgled down the sinful throat of man, gave a larga one the other night. . We hear that the room was ornamented with persim mon trees in full bearing. A segment of a drove of hogs has readi ed Edgefield. Not from the mo tmiains, as in old times, but from tbr "Mue Hornsen Tho segment contained eight huge grun ters-and great was the commotion over them. They went rapidly at ? cts. _Serions and dignified items are scarce. In fact the time ls at hand to laugh and be merry. Josh Billings divides the hu man race into three classes-those who think it is so, those who think it isn't so, and those who don't care a snap whether if is so or not. During the coming holi days let us all laugh and be of the last named class. Our popular townsman, Dr.* Parker, has gone on a visit. to a sick brother in Chicago. He will be absent, we pre sume, about ten days ; and we trust he will have a prosperous and pleasant trip of it. We have a pleasant little tale to tell of Madame Janauscbek," the great German actress. Four little children, the young est an infant of six months, whose pa rents ?lied lately of yellow fever, in Bain bridge, Ga., have been brought to Edge field within the last two days, by one of our townsmen, their uncle.. On the jour ney out, Janauscbek, ber troupe, the gentleman, the little orphans, and the colored nurse, were all fellow-passengers on the railroad ; and the great and wo manly tragedienne seeing the poor in fant in distress, rose and requested leave to take care of it until they should part. And we are informed that she did it ef fectually and in the tenderest manner.

Lexington-Conn ty, and the Agent of the Palmetto Home in Columbia, paid a visit to our town on Friday last, in the interest of thia noble charity, and would have addressed oar community on Friday eveaing-as had been previously announced-but for the extreme inclemency of the weather. Be ing obliged to depart from us on Satur day, Mr. Caughman could not speak to our people at all. In the mein time, how ever, ho begs us to say that any contribu tions to the Palmetto Home, of any sort -money j provisions or clothing-if de posited with Mr. A. J. Norris of our town, will be safely forwarded to their destination. This Confederate,Orphans' Home waa founded not quite two years ago, and is now in the breach of its struggle for per manent existence. In this connection we have no long speech or exhortation to make. Next to God, our duty is to the widows and orphans of the noble men who laid down their lives for us in battle ! He wno does not feel this spon taneously, and deep down in his heart of hearts, wili hot be made to feel it by speeches and exhortations. New Counties. We understand that application will be made at the present session of the L?gislature for the formation of two new judicial and election Counties wherein the people of Edgefield are much inter ested. One of these new Counties will be com posed of a corner from each of the four Counties of Edgefield, Newberry, Lau rens and Abbeville, and will be known as Ninety-Six County, with the flourish ing town of Ninety-Six as the county seat The convenience of the people in the section mentioned would be greatly promoted by the formation of this new County, and as the present status of the voting population of the proposed new' County is largely Republican, doubtless the scheme of the petitioners will be consummated during the present session, and the new County of Ninety-Six will become, as it should be, an established reality. Edgefield, it is true, by the establishment of this new County, will lose -no inconsiderable portion of her very best people and territory, and we deeply regret, on that account, to see the change made ; but then we are satisfied that the interest and wishes of our friends in the . North-Wost corner of Edgefield will be best subserved by the creation of this new County, and we will I therefore raise no captious objections in < j the matter. And furthermore, we are firm in the belief that the robbing of ' Edgefield, and the other three Counties, of a portion of their respective area, with which to, create the new Ninety-Six County, will right speedily " prove a blessing in disguise." Because each ' County will also lose ?heavy Republican 1 vote, the losing of which vote will ' certainly euable the four Counties men- 1 tioncd to win conservative victories much sooner than if we have the Republicans of the Ninety-Six country to contend ( against. f\- 1 Another new County is being talked t of by our fellow-citizens ol the Saluda 1 Regiment. They wish, we understand, t to cut oil' that portion, of Edgefield lying ? Ncrth of a direct line running from j Johnston's Depot, vta Meeting Street j and Mountain Creek, on to the Abbeville line, and have their county-seat in tho vicinity of Sardis Church. This section has long boen clamorous for greater - judicial facilities, and not without just ' cause. tHundreds of these good people i live a full day's journey from the Court t House, and are therefore seriously dis- } commoded when having legal business j to transact. But, gentlemen, be more 1 moderate. You cut too deep. Say the North-Eastern half of the Saluda R?gi- 1 ment, and we will right heartily join \ you in jconr appeal for a new County. In facti;we father favor the idea of divi- I ding each of our large Counties into two . or three small ones. Small counties, and more Court Houseswould not neees- ( sarily increase litigation, as some con- 1 tend-but would indisputably lessen the \ expense and trouble now attendant upon the transaction of legal and public duties 1 by parties residing twenty and thirty ^ miles from the County seat; and -vould likewise inaugurate more frequent inter course and closer social relations between the people . And then these small Coun ties, if not already conservative, would very likely become so in a few years. , Radical strength, in a great measure, lies in its known large majorities, but once divide these large majorities into small majorities, and the great work of breaking the back-bone cf Radicalism is well nigh achieved: ] Hence, looking to the future prosperi- , ty of tho country and the long hoped-for i triumph of conservatism in the State, we side with our Ninety-Six and Saluda - friends in their new County projects, and j bid them God speed ! The first will doubtless bo established before the Gen- , eral Assembly adjourns; but in our opinion the divisionists of Saluda are < hoping in vam, inasmuch as our Radical Legislators know full well the conserva- ! ti ve strength of that section of Edge- . field, and in their usual partisan spirit, will oppose tho measure out and out. , Now is the Time to Visit Thos.
