Davis & Co., dealers in fruit and vege-

The BALL FRIDAY NIaHT.-The COM
mencement ball Friday evening, the first
which we have had since 1868, was de-
cided success. The representation from
the different parts of the State. though
not so large as in better days, was very
fair The hall was large and admirably
ventilated, the music fine, the commit
tees attentive, and everybody looked as
if they expected to have, and did have,
most enjoyable time. Tie supper,
which was prepared under the able
supervision of Columbia's experienced
aud tasteful caterer, Mr.. John Mckenzie,
was everything that heart or appetite
could wish. Every lady was belle, or
ought to have been, and every gentleman
wit. or thought he. was. after the
champagne began to circulate.
The RURAL CARo11NIAN.-We have
received the above excellent agricultural
and horticultural monthly for July, be-
ing the tenth number of the third 70.
lume. The first article is by that prac-
tical and energetic farmer, Colonel D.
Wyatt Aiken. There are many other
articles of grent interest to our planting
friends, included in the departments of
agriculture, horticulture and rural art,
dairy and stock, natural history, bee
keeping, mining and the mechanic arts,
editorial, correspondence and inquiry,
and literary aud home department.
noarly all the departments being pro-
perly illustrated. This is purely South
ern publication, which treats of the
needs and interests Of Southern farmers,
and there is no apology for our planters
subscribing to Northern publications,
unsuited to their mode of planting and
kind of labor, when this magazine is
printed and edited within the borders of
their own State. at the small price of 81
