The closing exqrcisos of Prof. Pip¬

20, at (Vcsley Chapel. Whon wo arrived
we found a large crowd in attendance
and the exercises in full blast, and the
pupils doing credit to themselves and
Prof. Pipkin, and thus it continued un¬
til 12 o’clock, when djnner was announ¬
ced, after which the crowd repaired to
the church to hear tho speaking from
the little folks, which was good indeed.
Col. Clarenco Wilson then addressed
the audience on Education, and it was
one of those forcible and brainy talks of

On Saturday afternoon, last, Mr. Jno.
Camp, who farms about nine miles south

burned, resulting in the lose of the

between two and throe hnndred dollars,
100 bushels of corn, a big lot of fodder

For sometime past we understand Mr.
Camp has been intending to insure, but
he put it off ouo day too long, aud con

Ico is a great luxury during tk s warm
weather, and it is cheap enough to be in
reach of most people, but great care
should be taken not to abuse its use, as
a little imprudence iu that direction
might be fatal. Wo ktiow the tempta¬
tion to cool of when one is overheated,
is great, introducing ice into one’s sys¬
tem, or to drink ice cold beverages when
one is iu that oonditiou, is a most dan¬
gerous tliiiig to 'do.
Little Willie, three, vear-old daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Coleman, while
at play, and sitting in a chair which she
had placed on top of a sofa, fell to the

are sorry to learn of the accident, but
glad it was uot more serious.
Sheriff McAllister, after a trip to
Bluffton, Saturday, was attacked that
night with a sudden sickness, the svni

are glad to say, however, ho quickly ral¬
lied, and was on the streets Monday
looking a little pale, but not much the
worse off for his sickness.
According to law. the barrooms here
closed Tuesday, dnring the election fur

say that no great loss reunited to the pro¬

day is remarkably small
If a minister’s sincerity were doubted,
the fact cf his being w illing to carry ou

that he is sincera Would a worldly
minded, unchristuvu mau do it ?
How queer wo mortals be. It is never
too wet, dry, hot or cold fer folks to go
to a ball, circus, theatre or any other
place of amusement, neither does busi¬
ness ever prevent tht-m from going, but
any tr all of these causes are sufficient
to keep them away from church.

suppose the reasons are too many for me

Their high protective tarifi measure,

its progress. I must plainly say, that
no southern colored man can be a Re¬

comes to national government they are
not in it, only to help elect the
officers—after that, they are hoodwinked
aud their hands are tied by the eastern
Democrats, and Republicans, and none
of their platform planks caauot bo en
aeted into laws.
Unfortunate for them, they haven’t

So far as the platform of the Demo

and our southern congressmen have gen¬

yet it docs not amount to anything—
they cannot put into action any of tlieir

THE MARCH FREEZE.
Throughout the state the disastrous
offoct of the March frtoze was felt, in
some localities necessitating tho entire
replanting of cotton, and, in the more
northern portions, even the young corn,
which was just coming up or had com¬
menced to grow off, had to be plowed
up and planted over again. But by the
middle o t May these cropi had almost
recovered from the temporary backset.

HARVESTING THE CORN CROP—PULLING

It seems ratheb premature to refer to
this question at this season, but it is of
bs much importance to the farmer to
save the stalks and fqdder, as to save
tho corfa, and we introduce it hereto
ca3 the \ attention usual method to the of tremendous pulling the blades waste
leaving the standing stalks, which,

every part of the corn stalk is of equal
nutritive value, and that the whole is of
more value than the ears grown upon it,

which has been established, not only by
