Merrick Ford lmd line ripe to matoes on his free lunch counter ycsletday. They disappeared after we got there. Tlie cold wave struck the city in earnest Tuesday night, and Wed nesday morning the boys were trad ing fur overcoats. It is reported that an Americns coil on buyer went over to KHavil e Wednesday and bought one hun dred ant] fifty bales at 8i cents. A hank cashier paid a farmer just $700 ton much on a check for cotton yesterday. Tbe farmer dis- covered the mistake before he gut ta the sidewalk, autl hud it cor rected. TUE “OBAND OLD PAHT¥.» 11.w Crl«p ssd K-n H.Bna.rnl It A.onsd VV.Sws.dsx, Jim McGregor, n drummer of Macon fame, was in town jester- day, and it is said one young lady’s heart palpitated very per ceptibly. Madame Rumor has it that the wedding is set for Decern' ber. Russ Slsppy, who lives at Plains of Dura, has been having a hard lime of it. For several weeks lie and wife and all the children have been down with the fever. This week one o’the children died. The family has bten moved to the Springs, where it is hoped they -will recover. “Yes," said the tramp, “there is marked difference between the pent up city life and the restful rusticating and dreary quiet of the country. But winter is com ing. At the last place where I called I saw the farmer sharpening tbe wood axe, in a thoughtful mood, and tbo cook eyed me with a leer that boded no goodand then as he shifted bis seat to a softer spot on the lounging bench there camo a reminiscent look into Itis eyes, and ns we moved ofl we caught tbe mellow refrain of that sweet pastoral hymn— ’•OrMFho (i*r fetin' on a «wrc» tutor vine, 8-root t»ter vli.e, owoet ta er vine; Ghas-t-npiwr *eu.u’ on n atveel tttrr vine; U « turki’T K rdipiu-d up buhltid, Iluueock Pillow*. Mr. M. Hancock,of TUoxasville, has on exhibition in this city a plow stock which lor convenience, durability and excellence surpasses anything yet invented. It can be used as a breaking plow, as a cul tivalor, for siding corn or cotton, or opening and covering. By a imple and novel arrangement it can be used with one, two or three shovels, ami they in turn can lie placed In any position desired. All except the handles being made of wrought iron, they arc strong, light and durable, not easily got out of order, and can be regulated to plow any depth. It is Bafd to say that double tb > work can be done with them than any other plow now on tbo market. The double plow is well adapted for putting in grain, putting it in as ilb a drill. It can also be used ir breaking light ground or strad tiling a row of corn. In point of price Iliis plow slock is the cheap est implement yet offered to the farmer, as it can be used to serve every purpose on a farm. We ad vise every farmer to examine these plows, feeling assured that it will be to their advantage to do so. Some of them have been used by some of the best farmers in this section, and they universally praise them. During tbe abort time Mr. Hancock has been here he has dis posed of a number of farm rights our best farmers. We should glad to see tome one purchase the right for Sumter and adjoining counties, as it cannot fail to prove profliable investment, ns they at sight commend themselves lo every practical farmer. In bia way Mr. Hancock has proved himsoif a pub- benefactor, as be has placed at the disposal of evorv farmer an implement that must reduce the c ist of farming, at the sane time seeming better work. Mr. Han cock will remain in the city but a few days lunger, and we would advt«e every farmer and meclunle to examlns bit plow*. According lo appointment, Hon. C. F. Crisp, candidate for congress for this district, and Hon. R. M. Hodge, candidate for elector from this district,addressed a large au dience at tbe court house Wednes day noon. Judge Crisp's appearance was greeted with applause, lie made a short explanatory address and ttieu commenced his speech. For a quarter of su huur lie held the reputdican party in a terrible ar raignment, contrasting the diller- enu-6 between the administration of the present time and that of thirty years ago. He then utlaekeil the t mil question, aud upened the eyes of many of his hearers by his dis closures ol the real Uuths of protection aud tree trade. He illustrated his remarks by showing the cost of mak ing c mmun wearing apparel, and at the price at which it is sold, being protected in its high price hy the tariff duty, which prevents competition. He explained that the democratic party was not in favor ot direct taxation, which he staled meant taxation by pulls in stead oi ad valorem. The Judge then touched upon “the man trum Washington," who puts in his up pearauee in this district every lour years, trying lo get elected to con gress. He asked the colored voters present who cared lor them during the four years their famous politi cal friend was in Washington? Who erected aud kept their public schools in order? Who carid for them when they were sick? Who went on their note when they want ed money from the banks? “In nil these things," he said, ‘-the demo crats are yonr lriends, and tile republicans care naught lor you except to use you as vassals and vote you like they would drive sheep." He closed his speech with a stirring appeal for every demo crat to cornu out on election day and cast bis ballot. For twelve years this district has been repre sented by a democrat, and now when the prospect looked so liri ht for national success, it would not do lor tue “Old Third”to ho ncgli g nit in her duty. He then intro duced COL. It. M. HODGE, Elector for this district. Not a word had been heard of the elec tion the day before hy those in the audience. Col. Hodge had come in on the train while Judge Crisp was speaking. As he tvns intro- dues! he bowed and said : “The latest advices from West Virginia show that that grand old State has gone Democratic by S,000 majority." The applause whieli greeted tills statement was deafening. The speaker then gave the news (rom Ohio, stating how the Republican victory, if such it could tic termed, was accomplished liy the aid of money, c irruptionisls, ami every device known to shrewd politicians in power. Col. IJudge made an eloquent argument for the short time lie was speaking, and made a very favorable impression upon t'lo. e who heard him. lie lias u strong voice, and uses exe (lent language, which, coupled with the emphatic manner of his address, makes him a very forcible speaker. Tbe speeches aroused a great deal ot enthusiasm, and will go a long way to arouse the Democrats in this county from their lethargy. It is quite evident tbe Republicans arc making a strong effort for their man, and tbe Democrats should look wcli to their laurels. A Bad Runaway* While tbe employees of the Bargain Store were enjoying the rain last Friday, two eonntty men walked in ihe .tore, inspected and priced some clothing. The prices bting so astonishingly low, they paid for them without having them wrapped np, and ran down C.itmn Ave nue, believing, no doubt, iimt tbe sales men bad mede a mistake.
