ished at the word "our," because whom
iver Henry loves, we love. But then we
wi?h to know who the girl is. Come, out
with it, Henry.
The Cadet Examination.
The examination-written--of the 12
applicants from Edgefield for the bem
ficiary cadetships, took place in our Court
Hons? on Tuesday last. Major B. F.
Lovelace, Mr. Ii. P. Henry and Dr. Cart
ledge were the examiners. The result
will not be announced until sometime

A Notable Trial.
In Camden, next week, will come off a
notable trial, in which two able and prom
iner voung men of Edgefield will cross
Bwo. We allude to the trial of Capt.
Haile, for the killing of Blair. In this
trial Solicitor Bonham, State's Attorney,
will b* assisted by Judge T. J. Mackey,
while the leading counsel for the defence
will be Col. John R. Abney. This case,
tinged a? it ia with politics, will be of
great interest and attract universal atten
tion.
Charming Pee Dee Ladies in Edgefield
For a fortnight past, Edgefield has re
joiced in the presence of two very charm
ing Pee Dee ladies-mother and daughter
-Mrs. W. J. McKerall and Mis? Kate
McKerall, of Marion. And while Edger
field has rejoiced, no sun has shone in the
generally blithesome hr me of our hon
ored friend and brother, Major W, J.
McKerall, of the old Marion Star. But
that gentleman is not altogether selfish,
and yields up his Bun and morning star to
beam for a while in the home of an old
friend-Mrs. S. S. Tompkins, of our vil
lage. But when we tell him that Majcr
S.. S" like everybody else, is deeply and
hopelessly i-i love with his morning star,
then whc.^ will he think? Yes, the old
Ms?or, under the Pee Dee affhtus, has
gone back thirty-five years!
A Splendid Move.
Coi. A. P. Butler, State Commissioner
of agriculture, will shortly organize three
or four Agricultural clubs in Edgefield
County. He proposes to arganize cluba
among the farmers throughout the State
for the discussion of live agricultural
questions and the improvement of the
fermera. A genuine [revival in agricul
ture has struck this State, and the most
encouraging results are expected.
A Free and First Class Institution.
You can now send. your sons to the
South Carolina College for from $125 to
$175 per session of nine months. See
the card in another column. And your
son can now go to this first-class inatitu.
tion and live like a gentleman for $300
the n.ne months. And in this $300 we
include board, fuel, washing, lights,
clothing, traveling exoenses, theatres,
balls, and social, amusements generally.
For liquor and tobacco we make no allow
ance, inasmuch as we consider the one the
deepest disgrace to the human race, and
the other the dirtiest, most selfish and
moBt unpardonable extravagance, Tui
tion is absolutely free. And contemplate
the contrast. In our day the actual col
lege expenses were almost $500; and if
you lived liked a gentleman, as all South
Carolina boys in those days did, your ex
penses were from $1,000 to $1.500. But
now you can go to one of the best col
leges in the 1'nion, and right at your own
do;r, for from $150 to $300 a year, just
as you choose to make it. And why the
e.tizens of Edgefield do not send their
sous, is a y^ery great mystery to us. The
course, of study is lett optional with the
student.
A Fine Institution in a Lovely Locality
We allude to the English and Classical
Institute at Leesville-our fair neighbor
Leesville. And, aa will be sesn by re
ference to our business columns, the 5th
session of ^this popular school began on

as Principal and teacher of the Senior
Department, we are* delighted to see that
the Trustees hava secuiel the services of
our honored friend aud compatriot, Prof.
J G. Etheredge, ! cacher of the. Junior

Etheredge, this Institution must neces

And besides these, it has a Board of

Louisville a Fortunate City.
This city baa been singularly fortunate,
s.3 several citizens have of late gotten
??mall fortunes in drawing prizes in the
lottery. The last fortunate one is Mr.
Wm. W. Irwin, a Clerk in the Auditor's
Office of the L. & N. R. R., 2d and Main
st3. Mr. Irwin yesterday, while working
in the office, received an offic'al looking
document bearing the N. 0. post-mark,
and discovered, to his great joy, official
notification that he bad drawn one-filth of
$75,000 m the Louisiana State Lottery,
amounting to $15,000. The ' acky ticket
was No. 85,003. Some time ago Mr. Ir
win purchased his first lottery ticket,
v*ry nearly the number which then drew
the capital prize. He then thought he
would try again, and this time produced
such golden results. Mr. Irwin is a mid
dle-aged man, married, and has a small
family. He has been connected with the
L ? N. for several years, and has been a
frith lui worker, and many friends are pro
fuse in their congratulations.-Louisville
Courier Journal, July 14.
The colored voters are beginuiug

the coloxed voters. The candidate
was beaten. After the election he
Wis told that the colored political
fiend had voted ?gainst him. He
did not btlieve it; but meeting him
one day the ex-candidate said :
"I'll give you a dollar, Jim, to tell
me whom you voted for." "I voted
agin you, boss." "Well, here is the

A Land That is Fairer Than Ds
! But Still bas no Fried thicken
KEW YORK, Aug. 25th 18S2.
MESSRS EDITORS: A rapid dri
the morning we left home, broug
u.i to Trenton a half hour before t
train. At Columbia we took a Slee
er, avoiding a great deal of che a'
ful dust that we usually get, especii
ly at thia season, on the cars.
I wat very much impreaaed wi
our fine crops all along the road, ai
how thankful we should feel. Abo
2 o'clock (aome time before we got
Chester, at whicn place the tra
atopa for d.nner) my young comrai
announced that he had lunch. I
course bachelors like myself nev
carry auch. The porter fastened i
a table or us, and my friend open?
the lunch and remarked that he cou
eat aa much fried chicken as az
body in Edgefield. This waa a tr
mendouB assertion from a lad of se
en teen ! Having seen a-quantity of
eaten, I thought hie remark rath*
stupendous, but will not say how
was impreBaed after we had finiahei
The quantity of fried chicken ri
minded me of the many delightfi
picnics we have had thia summe
Notwithstanding the many lunch*
we had, aome of the fried chicken wf
brought far North, where it does nc
exist. My young friend hated vet
much to leave Edgefield. And it i
aiking a good deal of one who ha
lived in Edgefield, to leave it for a ev
eral months and especially togo wher
there ia no fried chicken ! I ate break
fast in EJgefisld and took dinner i:
New York the next day, which ia raak
ing very good time. The day after I ar
rived, the first thing to be done wa
to attend to all special orders. Anc
among other thirgs, I gave order
for two engagement riugs. I am no
supposed to know who the younj
ladies are that are to receive the rings
but will say that the boya a.e verj
well known ic and around Edgefield
Now guess till the weddings oma ot
who they are ! *
There ia a large trade on here Iron:
South Carolina, and they are in good
apirita and buying heavy etook?. 8c
you aee our good crops are already
beuefitting people quite a di ?tauet
from home.
I could not help but notice the
large travel on the Elevated Rail
Road thia afternoon. Trains every
5 minut?e, and four long coaches to
each train-crowded all the time.
Only charge L?C. for certain hours in
the mornings and afternoons, to ben
efit the working class. The balance
ol the day 10c. Tbe poor working
man and the mnch-to be pitied, hard
worked shop girls can thus get to
their buaineas easily ana cheap, even
if they live aeveral miles away. It
is strange that New York did not
have an Elevated Railroad many
years before she did.
Yesterday afternoon found me up
town with nothing special to do, and
in the vicinity of 20Tb~8t., ah?fuue,
to a stroll through the leading retail
Dry Goods establishments, and acroaa
over to Union Square through Tiffi
ny a, and among the largeat retail Di y
Goods houses down Broadway to A.
T. Stewarts immense establishment.
And in a walk clear across the first
floor of the latter I caw not. a single
cnatomer. Salesmeu were leaning
about on the counters and sitting idiy
on the ato?la. I guesa such a state
of affaira makes the great Merchant
almost turn over in his grave. How
ever, I forget that his bones have
been stolen. So after all it ia the
mu/Mhat makes*auccesa.
Mr. P. t. Wright, of Johnston, Mr.
Henry Wright, of Clintonward, and
Mr. Joe Watson, of Ridge are here
buying gooda. They have been up
to Saratoga.
The Railroad men are going to
raiee freights very soon; and I em
trying to get my freights off before
they do.
I went to Wallack a Theatre last
night. "Patience" ?B being played
there. I enjoyed it very much. The
scenery was extremely fine. It ?8 the
most comfortable and decidedly the
grandeat and moat beautiful Theatre
in the City. It is really a Irest to
see the drop curtain alone.
I will endorse all . that my gifted
friend "Oriole" has recently said about
Coney Island
Stocks are veiy full, and goods are

Ticket No. 56,0*1.
We hid occasion to interview Mr.
J. A. Burke, the Station agent at
Robeline. Mr. Burks was the 1 cky
holder of one fifth of ticket No. 50,
021, which drew the capital priza of
$75,000 in the Louisiana Siate Lot
tery Drawing of August S. He eta
ted that he had forwarded the ticket
to New Orleans, by theSouthern Es
preas Co., and exhibited a letter show
ing that th9 Bum of $15,000 was paid
in cash, by the Lottery Company,
without scaling or any deducti n.
Mr. Burks eeemed delighted with hi?
good fortune and was lull of pleiaant
humor.
Mr. Burke ia rather below the me
dium aiz?; wears a light brown mus
tache and goatee, and has dark brown
bair; he ia genial, pleasant and ?ocia
ble in diapoaition. He ia a compara
tively young man; haa a wife and two
children, and ?8 a na'ive ol Sonora,
Ky-i wiojM he owns some real estate.
He has been in hie present aituation
at the Depot of the N. 0. P. R. R
and in thia Stata since last Docember.
He takes bia good fortune quite non
chalantly, and in a sensible manner.
He aaya that he will retain hie pree
ent position for some time to come.
He ia evidently an intelligent gen
tleman, of eound, practical judg
ment. He speaks in high tarma of
the promptnesa with which the Loui
aiana State Lottery Company cashed
his ticket, without any quibbles or
tin
lor any cause whatever.
