The Excursion.

Last Wednesday large party of ex-
cursionists embarked on the Str. Nick
King, for Savannah. The steamer did
not leave till after nine; and on the way
the captain took in tow a vessel, so
that the party did not reach its des.
tiination till four o'clock. There was
band of eight pieces in attendance which
furnished the music; and the dancing
was kept up the whole way. On the ar
rival at Savannah, the party dispersed
many in carriages, and some afoot.
The steamer left for Beaufort at seven
o'clock p. NJ, and after re aching a point
about three miles above Fort Pulaski the
anchor was let go, and there the party
remained till IN orning.
Some of the party observing the Cap
tain gazing through his glass evidently
looking for the coming day, and thinking
that glass was a glass anyhow, seized
upon all the glasses within reach and
gazed at each other the most of the
night. There seemed to be great dissatis-
faction with the glasses as the party were
co .tinually making changes and before
midnight some of them had gazed
through the bottom of all the glasses on
board and becoming so exhausted with
their efforts, were scarcely able to reach
the saloon, where upon the soft carpet
they sooa rested from their great labors
and slept the sleep of the innocent.
Mrs. Odell had a bountiful supply of
good things and reaped harvest of
greenbacks.

A VALUABLE INVENTION Messrs.
Wright & Warnock, of Barnwell and
Beaufort Counties. S. c., have just in.
troduced to the market valuable ad-
dition to the me chanical department
of plantation labor, in the form of a
new horse power, which is represented
by those who have seen it in operation
as the most simple, efficient and eco
nomical horse power ever manufactur-
ed. 1t is Of home invention and man
ufacture, and is in the hands of gentle
men whose names are guarantee that
the machine is all that is claimed for
it. 1t is called the Anti Friction
Holse. Power, and it is claimed that,
by Its peculiar arrangement of cogs
and pinions in relation to each other,
the absolute minimum of friction has
been obtained. 1t is compact, durable
and portable, and can readily be NOV
ed and put up, and one of it's greatest
advantages is that the rising or falling
of the floor upon which it rests does
not in any way effect the working of
tie gear.

Our Town Council.

At q time when every town in the
South is awakening to the importance
of attending to their sanitary condi-
ton, what have our town council done
in this direction? Can they be aroused
by any possible means, from their SOM
nolent condition to the fact that dan
ger threatens this community, unless
the sanitary and necessary precau-
tions are taken to avoid it. We are
told that the drain running through
the centre of the town is in bad con.
lition, that garbage and filth is allow
ed to accumulate IN front OF houses
and in the streets, that the stencil OF
uncleau sinks offend the nostrils OF
those who frequent the streets at night.
In a climate where the Thermometer
ranges from eighty to ninety five de-
grees during the summer months, this
ia an unsafe condition of things. Then
gentlemen of the council, by the trust
you have imposed in you, arouse!
Organize your board Of health, (which
you should have done long ago. see
that the town is put in as good saui'
tary condition as possible. Then will
you have done your duty though you
were slow in doing it.

The Fifth Avenue Talk.

The New York newspapers are filed
with the details of the conference of
Thursday at Mr.. Lloyd's rooms, in the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York. The
result of the meeting apparently is that
the weight of the expressions is mani
festly in favor of Greeley and Brown,
though few of those who participated
in the deliberations were determinedly
opposed to the ticket. The meeting
was held with closed doors, some of
the outsiders facetiously styling it the
"air. tight convention," but notwith-
standing the presence ola doolkeeper
and other adjuncts of secresy, the
opinions of the individuals and their
positions taken, and the general senti-
ment expressed was quickly conveyed
to those outside and collected by the
reporters in various ways.

-.s'That portion of the cotton that was
up before the first drought set in is in
most pgopising condition, but that that
did not come TIL the rains late in May is
already regarded. as a failure. This
amounts to about twenty-five per cent. Of
the crop, aud the falling in the yield will
be in that proportion, even If the seasons
from this time forth shall be propitioas.' .
Correspondent writing from Stockton
says: The farmers Of this vicinity have
been rather discouraged for some weeks
past on account Of the drought. 1t is
the general opinion that corn is cut off
one fourth, while cotton is looking very
we'll, and the recent rains, with fair pros
poets for more, will make a good yield OF
cotton in this section.

reference to The proceedings Of the con-
ference, which was held in New York
on Thursday last, it will he seen that
il has been conceded that the Cincin.
natl nominees are admitted to possess
that strength which alone can defeat
Grant. The action of that conference
conmends itself to all thoughtful men :;
and the unanimity which characterized
its deliberations is an earnest that the
advocates of reform will be successful
in the pending contest.

Show Your Hands.

Atyhs Grant and Wilson meeting
On Monday evening, it was amusing to
hear how much the speakers had to
say about Greeley and Grant, and how
little in regard to affairs in the coun-
ty and State. It Is all very well to en-
large on the virtues Of Grant and the
faults of Greeley, but the people are
more interested Ia affairs nearer home,
and demand to hear how the men they
elected to office haYe fulfilled their
trusts.
The people begin to feel the taxes
imposed upon them, and the rumors OF
fraud and corruption that are circulat-
ed lead them to believe that they have
been deceived in their friends, and
that changes in some quarters are
necessary. They know that something
is rotten, and they in vain listen TO the
orators at the various meetings to find
out who is to blame, but the speakers
dare not attack any one for fear they
may be fouling their own nest, and
placing in jeopardy their chances OF
serving the people another term.
In the mean time it is becoming al
most ir possible even with fife and
drum to get together corporal's guard
to listen to the non-committal speech
.es that the people of Beaufort have so
often listened to.
We presume, after the Convention
meets, that the 1osues will be duly
shown up, and that they will all be
found among the opponents OF the
ticket, and then the people will be en-
abled to find out when it is too late
how honestly the affairs of State have
been administered by those seeking
another lease of office.
We call upon all for facts and not
rumors, make your charges of corrup-
tion openly, and Let The accused an

Tobacco Tax.
To the Editor Of the Republican !:

To the Editor Of the Republican
Allow me through the columns of
the REPUBLICAN to call the atten ton
of all dealers in leaf tobacco to the fol-
lowing extract from the recent act of
Congress on this subject:
"Retail dealers in leaf.tobacco shall
each pay five hundred dollars. and, if
their annual sales exceed one thousand
dollars, shall each pay, in addition
thereto, fifty cents for every dollar in
excess Of one thousand dollars Of their
sales. Every person shall be regarded
as a retail dealer in leaf.tobacco whose
business it is to sell leaf tobacco in
quantities less than an original hogs
head, case, or bale; or who shall sell
directly to consumers, or to persons
other than dealers in leaf.tobacco, who
have paid a special tax as such; or to
manufacturers of tobacco, snuff or
cigars who have paid special tax. or
to persons who purchase in original
packagssfor export. Retail dealers in
leaf to bacco shall also keep book,
and enter therein daily their purchas-
es and sales, in a form and manner to
be prescribed by the Commissioner Of
Internal Revenue, which book shall be
open at all times for the inspection of
any revenue officer.''
This act shall take effect on the first
day of July next. From a-d after, that
date, all dealers selling directly to con-
sumers must pay the tax of $500, or lay
themselves liable to a heavy fine, one half
of aohtch actU go to the informer.
Respectfully, s. B. WRIGHT,
Deputy Collector.
