The Crops.?We gather most en
couraging reports from every quarter]
of the country as to the growing]
crops. In some sections the pros
pect was never better than at this|
time?good stands and all crops
growing off'finely. The high seasons

A Word fob tue Clerks.?We
notice that the merchants of several
of oor leading country towns have de
cided to close their stores at ? o'clo
"P. M., in order that their clerks may
have su?joient tjaie to rest and re
vcruit ^rom the fatigue incident to the
excessively hot season upon which we
are entering* We would respectfully
suggest a Bitnjlar course to the busi
jness men of Orangeburg. The dull
ness of the season and the light busi-|
ness trans action 8 alter .6 o'clock will
entail but little loss to the merchants,]
while n relaxation from work at that
hour will yield untold comfort to the
clerks and their families.' What say
our merchants?
Practice.?On Tuesday last the
Young Americas were out on parade
with "Uncle Joe" and presented quite
n creditable appearance. Notwith
standing the excessive heat, the mem
bers performed tihe .different ovolu
tions with spirit and precision. The
race of three hundred yards with the
.reel and hose, including the unreel*
jug, the attaching of hose to engine
and the throwing of water, was made
?in two .minutes und forty-live seconds.
This is certainly a creditable show
ing for young men totally unaccus
tomed to such work, and with a rea
sonable amount of practice they may
equal the Charleston Qremen by per
forming the same evolutions in ono
and a quarter minutes.

On Sunday last tho Commencement
exercises of Clafliu University opened
by a sermon from Bishop Warren be
fore a large audienoo.in the College
chapel. Several of our citizens at
tended to bear the Bishop on this his
tirst visit to our State. The sermon
teas fully up to the reputation of the
preacher, eloquent, profound and
spiiitual throughout. The Northern
Methodists were certainly fortunate
in securing Bishop Warren for the
Episcopacy. Monday tho examina
tion of the classes .be^an find ended
on Tuesday. Mouday evening Hon.
Samuel Dibble, of our town, delivered
the aunual address on the subject of
popular .education. Notwithstanding
the unfavorable evening the chapel
was crowded ;t,o \ts utmost capacity,
and wo learn the address was one of
best ever delivered on that puhjeet-r
taking our Ncrthern visitors captive
by foice. The speaker was applauded
frequently and was most happy in the
effect upon his audience. It is
thought this able address will have a
most beneficial influence in behalf of
popular education in this county and
wherever it may be read. Mr. Dibble
has given the subject considerable
thought and the views expressed on
this occasion are doubtless the fruit
of potienL study and calculated to
benefit the cause of education wherev
er they may reach. Tuesday morn
ing was appointed for,thecontest in
declamation for the regular prizes of
the in tituiion. Tho young men gen
erally acquitted themselves hand
somely and gave promise of au hon
orable future,
Wednesday afternoon at S o'clock
the commencement exercises proper
were had in the chapel in the pres
ence of a packed audience. Every
available seat and standing room
about the doors, windows and pas
sageway was filled with anxious spec
tators from the adjoining communi
ties, which eircumst ijcc alone proves
what a deep interest the colored people
feel in the education of their youths.
After prayer, President Cookc
called the young men out in their
appointed order, each of whom mani
fested a trainning of mind and body
that docs credit to the institution.
The speeches were-original and gen
erally well written showing earnest
study and very commcnd.able prafi
cenqy in the various branches involv
ed. Dignity pf position and grace in
delivery were very marked through
out the exercises. The Latin Saluta
tory by A. W. Whaley and 14?? d-nn\r
.Oration by J. S. Cooper were very
entertaiu iig 10 mu uuuience anil cred
itable to tho young speakers, We
make special mention of the speeches
of J. H. Jones, W. L. Bulkley, M.
Blakeley, E. J. Crawford and H. D.
Witiams as giving evidence of su
perior attainment and careful sJLudy,
not, however, without recognizing the
merit, of the Other young men, all of
whom did well and reflected credit
alike upon teacher and student. The
address of Miss Hattie Dickson was
chase and well prepared. The vali
dictpry by Miss A. L. Jackson de
serves more than a passing notice.
Such sentiment can only come from
a well trained mind and a sensitive
lueart. Miss Jackson is certainly
gifted beyond girls of her race nnd
age. Deplomas were awarded to H.
D. Williams, Misses Hattie Dickson
and A. L. Jackson graduates of this
year and to Miss S. E. Middlcton, a
graduate of last year.
Prizes were awarded to Scipio
Moore, on Declamation ; M. Blakcly.
on Greek ; C. Sanders, Nancy San
ders, and H. D. Williams, on Rheto
ric; J. H. Jones, Nancy Sanders, A.
U. Black and J. P. Brown, on the
Bible; J. H. Jones and Thomas
Simms, on Theology; and the Con
ference prize to A. H. Whaley. After
the benediction by Rev. A. Webster
we left, not, however, without wishing
Dr. Cookc and his corp of professors.
God-spend in pursuing iue nobje
work in which they are engaged.
-?
Round Dances.?Here is what the
Atlanta (Ga.) Oonsiitution says on
the subject of round dances, which
we commend to the attention of our
young lady readers : "A young man
watched the waltzes at a certain dan
cing school for some time last night,
and then asked somebody to tell him
why it was that the young ladies who
submitted to hugging in public would
not permit it in private, whereupon a
bright fellow remarked that that had
not been bis experience." Food for
thought!,
Compound Exthact Buchu, com
posed of buchu leuves, dandelion
root, acetate potash, juniper berries,
pa.eiza brava, and calinsosia root.
All of which arc highly valued diur
ctics, kidney stimulants and depur
ants. The failure of the actons of
the kidneys is a source of many dis
tressing discuses. This medicine
produces a hearty action of the
kidneys, removes from tho blood the
urea and urio acid, which if allowed
to remain and accumulate would in
duce rheumatism, gooty affections,
pains in back and loins. This valua
ble medicine is for sale by Dr. J. G.
Wahnamakor. Price 7? cents per bot

Tub Faib.^-TIio opening of the

reeall to mind the little ejngbam hud

Siiame ?rOu Monday afternoon of
last week, during the bearing of a
case before the Inlendaut and War
dens of the town of Hamburg, a white
woman named Sally Sbinall, made use
of offensive language and so interrupt
ed .the court that she was adjudged in
contempt and ordered to be taken to
the jockup. The town marshal, nam
ed Creighton Maljjeny, took charge of
her and-started with Irer to the guard
??oUwe?n %M^rjN*r,?6fro^
which she died on Friday, Tho m^v
shai and his friends say that she re
sisted violently and h.o was obliged to
strike her. The friends of the woman
say that she did not resist, but mere
ly sat down on the ground and refus
ed to go and that thereupon the ofii
cer struck her.
Letter Carrier Caught.?Quite a
sensation has been created in fashion
ion able colored society in Charleston,
by the arrest of W. Qr. Lawton, a
colored letter earlier, on' Saturday
night last. The matter has disclosed
a most alarming condition of things
in the postal service. It appears that
during the past five years a regular
system of plundering has beep .carri
ed on with such consumalo skill as
to evade every attempt at detection
The total losses during that time are
estimated at Ir.oni eight to ten thous
and dollar's. A trap was set, and he
was finally detected through tho
means of a decoy letter. Quito a j
number of letters from this place have
been lost from time to time, and it
will be pleasing to those who have
suffered to know that the rasea} bus
been caught.

Our Agent In New York Is already in
receipt ot our instructions directing 1dm
to be on the alert for every sule and fail
ure as well aB every bouse tottering on
the brink of bankruptcy, so that he,.with
cash in hand may rake Jn eyery bargain
and thus er.aide .us during the present
year not only to Increase our own re
sources, but to become also a never
changing source of assistance to lour
friends by selling them goods Cue beiov
the wholesale murketof New York.
It was the credit system that paralytcd
onr Industries In the past and caused so
many interests to droop and wither while
every article needed for family consump*
tlon doubled in value. Thus while labor
\yu_Rinadequately compensated, goods of
every description approached almost fab
ulous' prices and'tbe'dally sweat ot a
man's brow barely .obtaio^d for himself
and family the commonest necessaries of
life. Too much credit will always oreaTo
demands greater than tbe sources of sup
ply will satisfy, hence everything takes
an upward tendency under its operations.
I On the other handcush transactions will
make the supply larger than the demand
and consequently goods fall to bottoui
prices when this rule prevails.
We pay .cash .for ?11 our goods before
they leave the place bought from. Hence
our ability .(independent of our unrivaled
facilities for buying) to outstrip and un
dersell all our competitors. The men
.chant who tbuys on time, ,(and who of
them doesn't) not.only has to pay the high
est prices for what I hey get but also the
additional percenUige added ou all credit
sales. Now all this oornes out of the con
sumer, the man who patronizes the time
merchant at home. It will at once be
perceived that the diflerence between us
is vast indeed, and that the buyer on
credit system cannot purchase goods at
market prices, while we, by paying cash,
get the most extraordinary bargains at a
large discount ou wholesale cash prices.
It is therefore quite easy tor us to sell
below other merchants and guarantee
perfect satisfaction iu every case.
Our system Is one of our own, nud has
many advantages which we shall not ex
plain, but let it Millie that the larger
portion of the benelits arising from it are
reaped by our friends and patrons, and
Py: ,lt wie payp established a reputation
near and.dear to us. With honesty, fkir
dealing, quick sales and .small profits as
our watchwords we have conquered the
demon of high pikes and forced from
him the acknowledgement that h e has
been systematically swindling and de
frauding the people.
We have demonstrated to thousands
in.this and other counties that it Is pos
sible when dealing with u fair aud honor?
able merchant whojjuys strictly for cash,
to purchase goods at prices which wero
mirrjept before the war. To buy aud sell
goods does liqt necessarily imply that to
o.o successful one must either be a cou
jscienieless extortioner or, u ?????;?...
?Sj,,.i_iL. m? uiKimy und ennoble bis
profession or he can sink it into iniquity
and trail its courtly garments through
cesspools of deceit, dishonesty, fraud and
double distilled misrepresentations. Ho
pan be a JLdessing or a curse to his coun
try. As for us "^ye prefer a good name
w,lth a slow'opt steady Increase In busi
ness to the gouging process which makes
one merchant rich to-day und a thousand
poor farmers" penniless and breadless to
morrow.
Ours is the true plan, by adopting it
you avoid the Scylla of .credit on the one
side and the Cliurybdis of a leln execu
tion on the other. To trade with us Is to
insure satisfaction, Increase your wealth
and general prosperity. Week after
week during ihe present year we shall
spread daily upon our counters a stock
of goods as varied us the leaves of the
forest, 4. cordial invitation is extended

or answer questions.
We will sell lor one dollar cash what
you will pay three for iu October If you

cheapest markets in America for ca>di
less the large discount, and can and will

ular custom we offer ns rare 'inducements
as were ever offered in tnis bi'any fJtber
community Our goods arrive weekly

und call on us when you visit town.
Farmers, luok to your own welfare,
i you who have sunk low aud lower each
succeeding year while the middle men
around you have grown rich in'jbomfdria
and wealth, you have barely lived'by

their already plethoric treasures, by sell

in future and learn to' watch as well as
