the night of the 15th instant a cyclone struck
this county at the plantation of Dr. Hicks and
“ southeasterly direction, passing out
vT M - Hutchinson’s. It threw down
Mr. Hutchinson s timber at a fearful rate and
did corsiderable damage at other places along
its line—notably at Dr. Hsine's place, which
lay ID its line of destruction. But the s orm
played its wildest pranks and put in its most
destructive work at Dr. Hicks" His gin house
with two gins was utterly destroyed. How the
fared we failed to learn. One
or those giant oaks in front of his
House was rent in twain and thrown
on ® ha’f in one direction and the
other half in the opposite direction. The en
tire frames, sash and all. on the front
of the fcou-te, were blown from their place and
driven against the opposite walls, on the inside
of the rooms, aud yet, strange to tell, not a
pane of glass was broken. The chairs and
other furniture danced around the room to the
mude of the storm, and a I urge glass protec
tor sitting over some wax flowers on the man
tel-piece was lifted by the wind from its posi
tion to the hearth without injury, the wax
flowers remaining undisturbed on the mantel
piece. Where the cyclone passed through an
oat field it literally tore up by the roots and
carrii and away the oats, making a path one hun
dred and twenty-five yards wide, leaving the
grain on either side unruffled. The wind was
accompanied by fearful hailing in the vicinity
of the old Dr. 'Jucker place.”

Facts vs. Claims.
Notwithstanding the great rush of Customers we’ve had during the past
six weeks, and the large amount of SPRING and SUMMER CLOTHING,
HATS and GENTS’ FURNISHING GCODS we’ve sold in that time, our
stock keeps still complete, as we receive additions thereto almost by every
steamer from New York. The people are realizing the fact that to buy
good Clothing is cheapest in the end, especially when they can be bought
at such low figures as we are selling them this season; and that we have
always endeavored to procure the very best goods in the market, and of
the very best makers, is a fact long known to our many customers. These
are not mere claims, but facts, of which we are ready to convince all those
who may favor us with a trial.

A SUMMER RESORT
HAVING been frequently solicited to open *
Summer Hotel here, I have decided to do
so, and will open the HIGHLAND PARK.
AN v EX for the reception of Summer Board
ers WEDNESDAY, JUNE I, 18S1.
The “Annex” is the building formerly known
as the “Aiken Hotel.” It is pleasantlv situated,
surrounded by shade trees, and within two
minutes’ walk of the depot. It has recently
been renovated and repainted, and is now in
first-class order. Prices of Board will ranee
from $lO to sls per week per person. Chil
dren under twelve years of age half price.
Transient $2 50 per day.
Aiken is situated on the South Carolina Rail
road, on the summit of the Sand Hill region of
Carolina, seventeen miles from Augusta, and
one hundred and twenty miles from Charles
ton. It is 700 feet above tide water, and 400
feet higher than the Savannah river at Au
gusta. The healthfulness of the place is well
known; the air pure and cool, especially at
night. The climate and well kept houses of
Aiken have made its reputation national as a
‘Winter Resort.” Many years ago Aiken wa*
a popular and mueh frequented Summer Re
sort. Of late years the attractions of the place
for summer have, owing to a lack of accommo
dations, been overlooked. It is my strong de
sire to furnish such accommodations as will
renew the old time popularity. For further
