THE FIGHT IS OFF. I
'Die Winnsboro dispensary Iws ^
opened up and is in full blast, and J _
what is more that remarkable institu- J
tion will "pursue the even tenor of its k
? .11
wav unmolested.
i.
The committee of tli2 Good Temp- "
lars have decided to give up the fight j
against the dispensary for the reason
that they feel perfectly satisfied that 1
in view of recent developments, legal
proceedure on their part would in- 1
volve an expenditure of money and a
loss of time for whHi they could have t
no reason to hope for any return. (
J. E. McDonald, Esq , who had been 1
retained by the Templars to conduct (
their fighf, was seen Monday in re- t
gard to the matter. He said: "We t
have concluded to give up the fight in
consideration of Judge Pope's re
maskable ami unprecedented assump- ?
tion of power. We had a sound ease, j
and I have no doubt that an injunction t
would have been gran led in answer to i
our appeal. Judge Pope would
doubtless have repeated the action
taken in the Darlington case, and as
our circuit will not be called in the ,
Supreme Court until the 2nd of s
January, 1S94, the legislature will, in A
^jueantime, have amended the law j
probably." ThaVsCaiiCS the ~ Hrat&l' fina'lly.

There was a considerable mad dog- J
scare in this section last Saturday.
\ dog belonging to Mr. Braswell on
Jcdar Creek made a raid on Friday
night through the neighborhood biting
quite a number of dogs. lie- re-,
turned home on Saturday morning
ind bit two of his children and a
young lady about grown, and came
very near biting one of his sons in the
face: also bit some hogs. They shut
the dog up. but it got out and made
another raid in the same section. It
would have bitten Mr. T. C. Camak's
children who were in the yard had it
uot been that his dog was with them,
and it made for it first, which gave
the children time to get in the house
and shut the door. The alarm was
made and a number of men went in
pursuit of it. The dog was found
and killed by a colored man near Mr.
Tennant's lot in the evening. The
party then organized and went into a
general kiHing of all the dogs that
they could hear of being bitten. It
would have been well to have suspicioned
all the rest and went into a
general slaughter. The dog was bitten
nearly a year ago. I have heard since
that Mr. Braswell has another dog
that has left home.

AN INCIDENT OF THE WAR,
| Related l?y Ont of the 61h S. C. Cavalry.
Messrs. Editors: I read, a tew days
n<iO in the Atlanta Constitution, of the
minion of the Sixth S. C. Cavalry at
Greenwood. I would have liked to
meet onco more with t e ^nrvivore oi
ihat once galhnt command, but dis-.
i lancc was in the way. Yet, through
| Mime occult means, as it were, I mani
jigrd to ?e( with the hoys again and
I lor a little lime live over the tragic
| <i:iys ?t the sixties. I called up old
I ey uniform* and faces of the heroes
i ihat wore them. 1 wonder how they
; look now! I called up desperate
j charges, the crashing of artillery, the
whizz'ng of minnies, and most the
>adde>t of spectacles?an onpty saddle.
j In ilie inid>t of my reminiscences of
j i hose day.-!, I come 10 a serio-comic
I incident, which I will rela'e
j it was in the autumn of '62. We
! were campid at Adams' Kan, S. C.
i One night while ail was quiet and the
j boys particularly unsuspecting-, we
uerecharg-d by an unusual enemy?
; u mad horse. A Urge gray horse had
j evidently gone inad, and wa?? in a fair
way to demolish the camp. Racing
i here and there witn death-dealing
velocity, he made his course through
! ihiis and over men. hi one of hi> races
l.t- picked his coarse through a tent In
wi.ieh four of the good pious Oojs sat
p!a\ing at the tiuie-honorrii game of
"M Vtfll lip , leaving IVVU IKVCICU Ull
each side of the table and dragging
the tent away as the spoil of his charge.
Private Peitigrcvv said that he held
"l.i^h, low, jack and game, but he be
d ?d if hs could stand."
I.ate at night the mid charger was
captured and chained to a tree. Incredible
to tell, he succeeded in breaking
a link of the lock chain with which
he was bound, i>nt was at last killed
by his sorrowing owner. It i? remarkable
how a true soldier loves the horse
that he rides into danger.
It has been a long time since the
curtain fell on the last trsgic scene at
Appomattox Court House, but the
sc-nes ot' all those years do not lose
their lustic in the memory of the surviving
veteran.
~ * * + *
It never occurred to me when Gen.
llmnritnn wns lr>A<iin<r his loval men to
battle, and after when he was leading
us through the nufurgotten days of'70,
that South Carolina would ever lnr
"Trr1r~tt-c!s-s? men that would turn
their backs on ijim without any misdeeds
of his. It is^ piecc-i?f pleasure
to know that ?hc President i* not-iin^

We have been suffering for weeks
from a most diss ressing drought. The
: greater part of the early corn is irretrievably
ruined. With favorable seasons
late corn and cotton may be
greatly benefitted, but the outlook is
gloomy enough.
Gardens are literally parched, aud
j we fear that no amount of rain could
redeem them. Many, who a few
J weeks since were jubilant over the
prospcct of an abundance of vegetables,
are puzzled over the situation.
. 'Tis hard to toil, when toil is almost vain
in barren ways;
'Tis hard to sow and never parner grain
I in harves-t days.
j Owing to the prolonged drought
i fruit is inferior. To sum up, we may
j cite general disappointment in every
i department of farming. Well, rej
grets are useless, and we must be
j reconciled to the inevitable not forj
getting "Thy purpose firm is equal to

of your pupil?, when }eu as ign a lesson
pr?i:ounce all new or difficult
words, and require the class to pro
nounce in concert aficr you, iu order
to secure correct pronunciation. Then
let each schelar in turn prououncc one
word groin? eve the lesson a second
lime. Call spend attention to words
of difficult spelling, :i'id t?th>se contaii
iujf silent Icttrrs. Occasionally
call upon <o:ne pupil to d'c ate the
spelling lesson. R--quire the pupil* to
study their lesson*, both oral and
written, Wy copying the words an their
slates. The act {' writing will sreure
attentiou to the lessen.
7. II a spelling book is not used, in
some measure supply the lack of one
by grouping words into short lessons,
and dictating thetn to the pupil-? to be
copied into their blank books. Thsre
is great waste of labor in taking up
wonls heterogeneous!)', ins'ead of bygroups.
8. In written exercises, ancr mc
papers or slates are corrected, require
pupils to rewrite their misspelled
words.
9. Require pupils t? pronounce each
word before spelling it.
10. In all grades above the lowest,
mike out carefully arranged liflt3 of
word* which pupils are liable to misspell;
let the pupils copy the words
into blank botks and study the lessens
until they are thoroughly learned.
11. Give early and conti ued attention
to the practical application of a
few of the important rules of spelling,
such as doubling the final consonant
before iny and cil, dropping the final e,
etc. By this mear.s pupils will learn
to spoil correctly a large class of words
in current use.
12. The teaching of spelling should
be so conducted a? to unfold something
of the meaning of words, and of
the formation derivatives from
primative words and roots The exercise
then becomes a part of good
intellectual training, instead or a Diina
effort of the memory.
13. Cerrect spelling is a conrentionai
test of accuratc scholarship. The
taarher should endeavor to secure the
best results by stimulating the interest
of pupils bv the charm of novelty,
and amusement.?Swetfs Methods of

BUCKIIEAD NEWS.
Buckhead, S. C., July 20, 1893 ?
This is one day before the annivc rsarv
of the first battle at Manasas Junction '
in 18G1 of our late civil war. "NYe I
recollect the gallant "Wade Hampton |
as he composedly rode back with scar j
wounds in his face, as we were marching
out to the field. lie said to us, I
"Boys, go on, but we have got. them (
routed;" Jeff Davis arrived at the ]
same time at the Junction that our
Regiment did (the Gth S. (J.) As he
went hurriedly to the field?we heard
cheering for the hero of Buena Vista. ,
I did not see him though. TLe only ,
time I ever saw Jeff Davis was when J
-i-x? J T
our army was suuioucu cum ui ^
out Mountain. lie was accompanied ,
by Breckenridge and Bragg, Confede- :
rate Generals, all on horseback. The 1
three lifted their hats a5 they passed '
byr~-ibave touched a little 011 history, !
but wilTr^iaejnvdiary. ' ;
On the 8th there wiS4??0&CiU. fi^fc
rain at Wolliug. There has been nom^
here in about five weeks. Everything
of the crop or vegetable order is very '
much damaged except some very ;
early corn that had been worked goed,
and was made, and the cotton crop,
which can do on so much less rain.
July 9th. Preaching at Rock Creek ;
Church by Rev. B. 1\ Estes. His ,
preaching was earnest and instructive.
There is a picnic at Salem Church '
today, and a protracted meeting going 1
on also. The preaching is done by
the Rev. Wra. Boggs, evangelist of
Bethel Presbytery.
The protracted meeting at RockCreek
Church commences the first ,
Saturday in August.
There will be a picnic at Rock Creek
Church 011 the 28th inst. The ladies
ovnof't fn ?f>ll rrcam for the bene
fit of their church. ^
There is to be a two or tlircc^ days
meeting at Liberty Church commenting
August 19.
This is the 21st July and we had
a very good rain on-tfcTT 19th, and
another on the 20th, and it is still
cloudy.
My [brother David writes me of the
death of Mr. S. M. Simons, which
occurred on the 3rd inst. near him in
Arkansas. I also Irani from his niece
Mrs. Martin of l.c death of Col.
Thomas l);tu Ivi.is on the Gth inst. in 1
Texas.
I think Mr. Cleveland has done to 1
himself, to his administration and to
the peopie of South Carolina in upholding
one of her most honored and <
famous s6t& great honor; and he de
serves the gratitude of all the people
of South Carolina.
I think there has been enough of
tax money for the present spent for
intoxicating drinks by the Governor.
That money was produced by no government
stamp, but by the toil and
sweat of the people.
July the 22nd is beautiful and fair.
It is a good time to prepare the turnip
patches or to plant.

This enables you to visit tlie pictur

to entertaiu strangers hospitably and
reasonably.
The universal verdict of the traveling
public is that the Pullman Safety

and Monon, between Cincinnati, In
dianapolis and Chicago, are without
doubt ihe "linest on earth."' These
trains were especially built by tli3
Pullman Company fo* this service,
and embrace every improvement.
Their magnificent c?aches, luxurious
smaking cars, superb sleepers, observation
cars, compartment sleeping
cars aud unexcelled dining enr service,
afford "all the comforts ot home."
Leaving Cincinnati you pass through
the beautiiul Miami Valley, and for
twenty-five miles the d?ub'e tracks
run through the very front door yards
of the finest suburban homes in the
country. Beyond Hamilton and up to
Indianapolis, the line is noted for its
scenic beaut v.
A stop over at Indiauapoli#, the
capital of Indiana, may bs obtained by
depositing your ticket with the Secretary
of the Commercial Club. This
city is more worthy of a visit than
almost any other of its size in the
West, and offers the greatest inducements
to traveller and tourist. Between
Indianapolis and Chicago the
iine traverses the very best agricultural
and commercial territory, a;id the
ride is one of unparalleled' comfort and
beauty.
Dear in mind that the C. H. & D.
*nd Mo?:on Route trains all run via
Bnrnside Crossing, from which point
ilip Illinois Central suburban trains
run direct to the World's Fair Grounds
every inement. At Englewood con
neetion is made with the electric cars,
whi;h run every five minutes to the
grounds, but we recommend all
persons to go directlv into the Dearborn
Station, which is located in the
heart if the city and from which all
street car lines converge, then go directly
by car or cab tj your hotel or
boarding place. First locate yourself;
know where and Inw you are lo live
while in Chicago. Get the locality
firmly fixed in your mind, before
going to the World's Fair by any of
the numerous convenient ways; the
cable cars, electric roads, elevated
railroad, Illinois Central K. It., suburban
trains and the steamboats
afford ample accommodations for all
possible visitors, and it is but five
minutes ride from the business portion j
of the citv to the grounds. Take vonr
breakfast down town, buy your lunch
at the grounds, and take your supper
down town. If you follow these J
suggestions you will save money.
