All, both old and young, are invited to at tend. Personal. We had the pleasure of meeting, on yesterday, Hon. E. P. Howell, of At lanta, the present Senator from the thirty-fifth Senatorial District. Capt. Howell is deservedly one of the leadeis of the Senate of Georgia, combining as he does, solidity of judgment with clearness of expression. He has the happy faculty of knowing what to say and when to say it, while the rich elo quence with which he conveys his opin- presents his conclusions always attracts the hearer and at the same time appeals to his reason. We believe Capt. Howell has before him a bright and successful future, and that he may take “the tide at its flood” in every ef fort of his life is the earnest wish of his many friends who know how well “He keeps a loyal heait Within a loyal breast.” The many friends of George R. Sib ley, Esq., will regret to hear that he is confined to his home by illness. One of Georgia’s distinguished sons —Hon. Julian Hartridge—honored our city with a visit yesterday, en route to Washington. He was the guest of Col. Fannin. As the representative in Con gress of the First District, Georgia looks to Mr. Hartiidgej as one who will never prove recreant to the sacred trust placed in his hands. We make no doubt his noble abilities will always be exerted in the cause of honesty and true Democracy. In days agone, Mr. Hartridge has proved his fealty to his native State, and his clarion voice will often be heard in the Halls of Congress in marshalling the Democratic forces to tho attack on the hordes of cormorants feeding at the National Crib. Badges Adopted. The “Survivors’ Association of Con federate Soldiers for the State of Georgia” have, by report of a special committee, adopted the following as a badge, which is recommended to the association of Confedeaate soldiers, to meet at Richmond on the 26th of April, next year. For the Army of Northern Vir ginia—Steel or iron cross, on which is to be engraved the regiment, brigade and corps. For the Western Army—Steel or iron star, one inch in diameter, five points, on whichjis the regiment, brigade and corps. For the Army of the Trans-Missis sippi—Steel or iron diamond, with the same engraving. These'badges will only be issued by the Secretary of each State Association, when the person entitled is registered in form, and proof made-of his connec tion with the Confederate service. The registration fee is only fifty cents, paid on the above proof, and the badge is delivered. This is the actual cost of the badge. Lieutenant Colonel H. D. Capers Is the chairman of the Committee of the Survivors’ Association, who reports this as the action of the committee to provide an insignia for the Confederate veterans. His address is Columbia, s. c. County Court. Noah Howard, a negro, was sentenced to three months on the city chain gang yesterday, by Col. Clairborn Snead, for stealing an axe. James Benton, a negro preacher, who belongs to Harrisburgh, and who is one of a class of disturbers so aptly unmasked by Governor Smith, was sen tenced to twelve months on the county chaia gang, on his plea of “ guilty” of stealing a watch from one of his fol lowers. Improvements. The armory of the Irish Volunteers has been very much improved lately by laying down anew floor, and the building of a very convenient st of closets for the storage of arms and uniforms. The new floor will be used the first time for dancing purposes on the 14th inst., on the occasion of a "calico hop” by the Irish Yolunteecrs Social Club. MINOR LOCALS. - To-morrow Is term day of the Court of Ordinary. Col. H. C. Stevenson has retired from all connection with the Constitutional ist. The running horse Vandal, Jr., which was raffled for la9t night, was won by the owner. The newspaper mails from the North are f getting very irregular again. What’s the matter? The Oglethorpe Social Club will give another hop about the middle of the month. This will be good news to the belles and beaux. The Globe Hotel—P. May, Esq., pro prietor—offers special inducements to the traveling public and local boarders. See advertisement elsewhere. The smoke-house of Rev. W. H. Da vis, at Hephzibah, was accidentally burned on Friday night, but most of the meat was saved. Cotton movements yesterday: One thousand four hundred and thirty bales received; one thousand two hun dred and fifty-one bales sold. Again came the doleful sound yester day from the Recorder’s Court, “No business.” And yet some people will complain. The First Baptist congregation has as yet taken no official action on the recent resignation of their pastor, Rev. Dr. Wharton. A meeting will be held on the 13th inst. to take the matter into consideration. Frank Brown, a negro who was ar rested several days since by our police, on a charge of stealing a horse from Preston Walden, of Jefferson County, was fully committed by Justice Haber sham. Mr.Walden came to town yester day and identified the horse. By reference to our advertising col umns, it will be observed that the Plant er’s Hotel offers extra inducements to travelers and local boarders. This fine hotel has now all the modern improve ments and a corps of cooks that can not be excelled in the South. A Winter cane has been invented. It is a long hollow tube, and, before the swell owner goes ou u on his prome nade, it is filled with a chemical prepa ration which generates heat and keeps the hands warm for hours. Senator Gordon has bought a house in Georgetown, and Mr. Lamar is going to live with him this Winter. The Springfield Republican thinks this will be a nice, quiet place to talk over candidates and platforms and things, without having to club the enterpris ing young gentlemen of Newspaper Row off the doorsteps. Yesterday, the members of the bar met in the Superior Court room, for tho assignment of causes. No definite ac tion was taken about assignments, and the meeting adjourned to meet at nine a. in., on Monday, when it is hoped ► every member of the bar will be pres ent. The adjourned term of the Su perior Court will commence on Mon day. The Lady Washington Tea Party will be held at Masonic Hall on Wed nesday the Bth of December, and promises to be a very nice affair. The price of admission is only 25 cents, and the costumes of 1770 will be intensely interesting. All those who are willing to appear in costumes are invited to (lo so. We understand that a well known member of the press of our city, is to represent the Father of his Country. “Honour should be concerned in Honour’s cause,” and a better selection could hardly have been made. A New Public School House. On the second Saturday of January, 1873, the present Board of Education was organized, and the First Ward was represented in that body by James G. Bailie, George R. Sibley aud Martin V. Calvin. When the schools were opened early in the following month, these gentlemen from the First Ward found an excellent school house for the col ored children of the ward. After put ting this colored children’s school house in good condition, they then cast around for proper accommodations for the white children. The only house that could be found any way suitable, was on the northwest corner of Broad and Sibley otreets, and it was made as comfortable as circumstances would allow, to answer for temporary use. Immediate steps were taken, however, to remedy the evil by the purphaso from the city of a lot on the north west corner of Telfair and Forsyth streets .running half way through to Greene street, aud a handsome well ventilated school house was built and ready for occupancy in October, 1874. The new building has two rooms sepa rated by folding doors, with suitable cloak rooms, and gothic furniture. Not content with their successful ef forts in getting one new school house, the trustees determined to erect another building, and we had the pleasure yes terday of visiting the new building which has just been completed. It fronts on Telfair street, is of wood, one story high, and 40x25 feet. It has one large room with clonk rooms on either side of the front door, made by the projec tion of the front. The ceiling is 14 feet in the clear, and provision is made for the accommodation of fifty pupils. Black-boards are placed in all the spaces between the doors and windows. It is one of the best ventilated build ings in the city. William Painter con tracted to erect this building, and it has cost about 81,200, and does him great credit. These schools will now accomodate about one hundred and firty boys and girls. After the Christmas holidays, the schools will be closely graded. The erection of the new building ne cessitated the engagement of another teacher, and Mrs. C. P. Bailey, a lady of refinement and education, with apt ness as an educator, has been engaged by the trustees, and will enter upon her duties next month. Denver wants to know why every Eastern man that deserts his wife comes there to join the church, rolls his eyes around and pretends that he isn’t over eighty rods from heaven.— Detroit Free Pr&s. New Books. Little Folks’ Letters.; By Mis Emerson. < Mrs. Emerson has acqmred great and deserved fame by has writings, especially in the composition of books for children. The above work is every way charming, and must prove a real treasure to the little folks. Marguerite’s Journal. A Story for Girl?. The celebrated author of “Rutledge” introduces this translation of a French book to the American public in a pre face admirably written and honestly adapted to popularize a volume which is one of the sweetest, tenderest and most pathetic in any language. We cordially recommend it to all parents who have daughters, and they can make their offspring no better Christ mas gift. Mr. A. F.

Carrington, President Piedmont and Arlington Life Insurance Company: Dear Sib • lain requested, as Chairman of several of your Policy-holders, to reply to certain points in your card of the 16th inst., especially to those reflecting both on our integrity and our intelligence. We are only plain farmers, unversed in the technicalities of law and the mysteries of Insurance, yet none of us could be made the “cools” of any one or be impose 1 on by “wilful and malicious falsehoods,” We spurn such insinuations, and you are right in saying that myself and the gentlemen I represent would ‘ scorn” being so used. You are doubtless aware that for several years, wide-spread dissatisfaction, confined to no class or section, has existed among your Policy-holders, insured on the half loan plan, and that all of your agents act ing under the same instructions, because making the same statements, have, unin tentionally. no doubt, misled their friends insuring with them. We were deceived, too, by your promises of large dividends, direct ly or indirectly, made in all of your early publications; and we were grievously de ceived in having the loans charged against us when desiring to withdraw our invest ments. A common sense interpretation of the “notice” on our policies and your official instruction, in your hand writing, signed by you as President in 1868, together with other evidence, justifies us iu our charge that you have grossly violated your contracts, when you now say through your actuary, tWt unless the lo ni is paid, we have no rights “outside of equity. • With all due deference to your long argu ment on the legality of our position, allow me to refer to a recent decision in favor of a ‘half loan” policy-holder sueing you through the Circuit Court of Columbia, Judge Carpenter, presiding. Mane the same settlement with us that you mado with Dr. J. E. Lewis, and that is all we ask. He was insured like us, on the half loan plan, paying two years, and you gave him a paid up policy (without the loan) for S2OO, the “even hundreds” you iiad received in cash from him. Your later all cash-policies read, after three annual payments, if a policy should cease by non-payment of premium, etc., a paid up policy will be given, generally ec/ual and sometimes exceeding the even dollars paid in; yet Maj. Abram Jones, having made five annual ail-cash payments, on a SIO,OOO policy, amounting to $5,194.80 paid out, when contemplating a withdrawal was offered only $2,300, payable ninety days after death, not fifty per cent, of the amount paid in. We only refer to two out of many similar cases, having neither time nor means to waste in newspaper discus sions; and with this we are done, simply asking that justice be given to all, which will be a constant source of satisfaction. Very respectfully, A. P. BUTLER, P. S.—Since the above was published in the Edgefield Advertiser, the Supreme Court of Georgia has rendered a decision iu accordance with our demands, A. P.

Tutt In gratitude for the benefit, received by the use of your Expectorant, I do cheerfully add my testimony to its won derful power in curing deep-seated coughs. For several years I suffered dreadfully with a cough, attended wi h great difficulty of breathing. I was induced to try your Ex pectorant, and it gave almost immediate relief. I took six bottles, and am bow per fectly restored. It is about five months sinco I began its use, and I have not had an attack since. It has been a great blessing to me; I cannot afford to be without it and heartily recommend it to all who have.lung or throat disease. Very respect fully, Mrs. A. M. Wellborn. oct!3-dsuwefr <fccl v OYSTER SHELL LIME. The Cheapest and Best Fertilizer in Use in Georgia. VTOTHING in the way of a Fertilizer and Renovator of old soils has been found equal to PURE OYSTER SHELL LIME. It is not only for one year, but its good effects are seen and continues for eight to tou years. Lime is greatly beneficial to all Grain Crops, applied as a top dressing, and also to Potatoes and all root crops, and should be applied in quantities not less than sto 30 bushels per acre. For Compost Heaps it is invaluable, and to the planters of Georgia this plan of using Lime is speci ally recommended to bring up our State to the front rank in Agricultural matters. The cheapness of our OYSTER SHELL LIME will recommend it to every fanner who has used fertilizers largely for the past few years. Its value is greatly enhanced by its long years of service, acting as it does for years after its application has been forgot ten. In soils abounding in vegotablo sub stances the mauurial quality in Dime is more fully recognized. Nitrogen abounds in all soils of common fertility, but little of it is available— Lime unlocks this store house of Nitrogen and renders it readily available for plant food. A splendid and econo ideal compost fertilizer may be made by thoroughly mixing one bushel of salt and three of Lime, and let the mixture stand six to eight weeks bofsre using. This is specially adapted to using in drills for Turnips. The cheapness and facility of procuring this wonderful renovator of the soil ought to make it one of the first objects of the farmer (who desires to improve his land) to obtain it. Nothing in the way of a fertilizer or renovator has been found equal to it, as proved by the increased yield of crops and permanent improvement of the soil at a cost less, by far, than any other manure. We are prepared to furnish PUKE OYSTER SHELL LIME in any quantity at $lO per ton of 2,000 pounds, free of cart age, on cars in Port lioyal, S. C. We also have a Compound for Prevent ing Hot in Grapes for sale at ssl) per ton. Give it a trial. TERMS STRICTLY CASH IN ADVANCE. Send all orders to PORT ROYAL LIME CO.. PORT ROYAL, S. C. W. D.

They com manded the admiration of the true and the brave in every land. But how few admire a fine head enveloped in grey hair and whiskers!—very few. We all love admira tion, and nothing in our appearance is more calculated to secure it than pretty hair.
