?A. X'upoi* fox* tlio People,
Orangeuurg, S. C, August 20,18S0.
We regret to notice the difficulty
nr.d dissatisfaction into which our
Aikcn friends have been led by
means of the primary system. We
are glad Orangeburg is free from any
muddle of this kind.
Mr. James Cannon has removed bis
talor shop from the Public Square to
Middleton street, opposite Mr.
Strauss' residence, where ho will bo
pleased to see his friends and pat
rons. See his advertisement.
Mr. E. L. Salley, who spent three
weeks with his family and friends
here, loft last Monday for his distant
borne in Texas. We wish you a safe
return to your loved ones, "Jack,"
and trust you will visit us again in
less than six years.
Lecture.- -A lecture will be deliv
ered at the room of the Young Men's
Chris nan Association on next Mon
,day evening at half-past eight o'clock
by S. R. Mellichamp, Esq. Subject:
?'True Heroism, or Moral Grandeur."
Admission, ten cents.
Haie Storm.?A severe rain and
hail storm, accompanied by consider
able wiud, fell about six miles from
to^vn on the Five Notch Road. Con
siderable damage was done to the
crop of Mr. Henry Stroman and oth
ers in Iiis immediate neighborhood.
The yard and cotton rows were com
pletely covered with the hail stones.
How beautiful is night! How si
lently she tiptoes across the meadows
of yonder peaceful vale. I hear, in
fancy, the soft rustic of her shadowy
garments as they tra 1 above the?
plague take the candidates. A fel
low can't indulge in a little bit of
sentiment without something start
ling him back to the stern realities of
life.
Mass Meeting.?Monday, October'
1 Ith, has been appointed by the State
Executive Committee as the day for
holding the Democratic Mass Meet
ing in our county. Let every citizen
bear this in mind nnd so arrange Iiis
business as to be able to attend.
This is to be Orangehuvg's great day,
and every citizen is expected to do
his duty.
List of consignees for unclaimsd
freight at the South Carolina depot
lor week ending August 19, 1880:
1). A. Griflin, IL L. Taylor, T. J. P.
Walsh, Thus. E. Rickcobackcr, R.

.7. F. Way, J. II. Stalcy, J. K. Hart
& Co., James Rayland, Geo. D. Sel
lers, Dr.J. W. Summers.
Worthy Example.?The Radical
traders of Middle St. Matthews have
.icen no little thwarted in their move
ment in consequence of a few minis
ters of the African Methodist Church
refusing to allow political meetings
to be held in their houses of worship.
This indicates an advancement in
morale realjy commendable, and we
hope other churches will follow an
example so worthy of imitation.
Election ok Delegates.?Willow
Swamp Straightout Democratic Club
met on last Saturday and elected the
following delegates to the County
Convention: C. F. Dowling, J. F.
Williamson, J. H. Baker and B. D.

to vote for Dr. J. C. Hoi man, for
Representative, Jos. F. Robinson, for
Clerk, C. B. Glover, for Judge of
Probate, and Robt. Copes for Treas
urer. t
Cotton Picking.?This week might
be called the beginning of the cotton -
picking season for the present year,
us many of our farmers have entered I
the Heids and will not leave them un
til the last pod be opened. The re
espt very hoavy rains will cut this
season short, as the estimated cotton
yield of two weeks ago will not more
than approximate the real yield so
damaging has been the rains on the
crops.
Death of Mrs. Jones.?We regret
to announce the death of Mrs. Imman
uel Jon cm of the Pine Grove section
which occurred at the residence of her
husband on Wednesday iast. Mrs.
Jones was a most excellent lady and
by her qualities of heart and mind
exercised a control.ing influunce'iipon
all who knew her. She leaves a large
family of children and a devoted hus
band to treasure her monory nnd to
mourn their severe loss.
Settling an Estate.?Allen Phil
lips, ol the Fork, was assaulted and
brutally beaten one day last week by
Wade Johnson anil wife. Meyers
Moss also lu'at the wife of Allen Phil
lips in a shameful manner. Allen
Phillips is the ad it inistrator of Thom
as Pnillips and, it seems the . clfort
to remove the properity of the latter
to a place of safety, and the adminis
trators arrangement of the affairs of
the estate did not meet tho approval
of the parties interested, hence the dif
liculty. The assaulting parties were
arrested taken bofore a trial justice
and lined. Ail the parties to the dif
ficulty arc colored.

ing in the swamp, brought into this

TiiEin Strenotii.?If tho strength

corn by the head and tail, tie it a con

will be left outside to "chew the cud
of melancholy" over an ingloiious de
