Our farmers have been so buSily engaged
in repairing their losses from the flood that
the town has been almost deserted, and it
has been difficult to obtain further particu-
lars of the damage in this County. Both
the bridges over Eighteen Mile Creek were
washed away. The bridge at the Pendleton
Factory, on Three and Twenty Greek, was
also washed away, and the one on the Pen
dleton road over Six and Twenty was badly
damaged. The lower bridge over Eighteen
Mile Creek has been rebuilt and the one
over Six and Twenty has been repaired.
The Commissioners will have the crossings
over all streams repaired as rapidly as
circumstances will allow. Indeed, many Of
them have already been replaced or repaired.
We are glad to announce that Miss Emma
Moore, daughter of Capt. James y. Moore
of this town, has just returned from the
Richmond Female Institute, at which excel
lent institution of learning she has been
pursuing collegiate course ofstudy during
the stsession. Miss Emma graduated last
year in the Carolina Collegiate institute, at
this place, andthen repaired to Richmond for
the purpose of extending her college course.
She has now returned, to spend her vaca-
ton at home, and brings with her the
evidence of studious habits and excellent
attainments, in the form of diplomas in the
schools of Moral Philosophy, English and
Composition, Mathematics and Literature.
In addition, she was awarded beautiful
gold medal, with the inscription, "R. F. l.
Spelling" on one side, and "Sen Class
1a Honor" on the other. These testimoni-
ais of proficiency are gratifying to her
friends, and we extend our congratulations
hoping that her success i'll the future will be
as great as in the past.

THE VAN IN ABYssEN14.

The khedive of Egypt has met with an
overwhelming defeat in Abyssinia. From
the meager reports which reach us by
telegraph, the defeat of Col. Arend0op
was light reverse compared with this,
and Khediye Ismail win doubtless aban-
don, for the present, his scheme for an
nexing Abyssinia to his dominions. The
expedition, Of which only remnant is
now returning to Egypt, left Massowah,
on the Red Sea, last January, under the
command Of Ratib Pasha and Gen. Lor-
ing, an American officer in the khedive'a
service, who were accompanied by COPS
Dye, Field, Derrick, Major Loss, Capt.
Porter and DR.. Wilson, also Americans.
Prince Hassan, the third son of Khedive
Ismail went with the expedition as a
spectator and student of military opera

was between fifteen and twenty-thousand
men, superbly equipped, while King

The late d. M. D. Bloss, Of the Cincin-
natl Enquirer, who was killed by q rail
road accident few days ago, wrote a
very illegible hand, and It is stated that
only few compositors, who had BY long
experience become familiar with his pc

II was remarkably like the handwriting
az the late Horace Greeley, only inf
nitely worse, which is saying q good deal.
II was formerly the custom Of certain
ambitious youngsters to secure scraps Of
Mr. Greeley's manuscript and try to ac-
quire his peculiar style. They were
probably unaware Of the fact that Mr..

TRB ExTRAT4GANCE or TIE DE
THRONED gULT1M

Abdul Axis had not been on the throne
many years before he yielded to the per-
nicious influence of the enemies of re-
form, the old Turkish party, and fell in
to the luxurious habits of his predeces-
sors. He soon had a harem peopled BY
innumerable concubines, which cost the
state immense sums. He dabbled in ag-
riculture, with the sole result Of adding
heavy burdens to the already overbur-
dened treasury. He also went into the
menakerie business, and expended enor-
nous sums in collecting wild beasts and
birds Men-of-war were sent to all parts
of the world to increase his collection,
and the governor of every province en-
deavored to afford him agreeable surprise
by costly presents-Arabian horses, car
pets, fruits, etc. So, too, wealthy Mo-
hammedans, as soon as they purchased
handsome slave, sent her to the sultan,
who never refused her. Pictures and
vases from China and Japan accOmpa-
MED these gifts, the sultan having taken
a passion for these, and having spent last
year 100000 on pictures: Even that
trip to western Europe which resulted in
his inaugurating numerous administra-
tive reforms resulted in the squandering
eff an enormous sum, while the hunting
excursions and other amusements of his
court cost fabulous sums. The palace
expenditure has been $40, 100000 a year
ever since his accession. His ser
wants numbered fifty-fve hundred-the
kitchen employing five hundred, the
stables four hundred, the menagerie one
hundred, while there were four hundred
caikdiis, four hundred musicians, three
door-keeperp of the twenty-one palaces
and Mosques, and one hundred pOrters.
The harem had one thousand two hun
dred inmates. The sultan had twenty
five aides-de-camp, seven chambermaids,
six secretaries, and at least one hundred
and fifty employees with various func.
tions. There were fifty medical men,
one hundred and fifty black eunuchs and
one hundred harem messengers. Many
of these servants were married, and fed
their families with the broken meat,
while they had uhder-seryants, so that
seven thousand persons were daily fed in
the palace al an average cost Of five
francs each a day, or $2,5O0,000 a year.
The horeses, six hundred in number,
were mostly presented by the khedive,
who also annually sent costly jewels,
pictures and birds. The stables cost at
least 100000, and the harem $500, 900 /;
while the pensions to the members of the
imperial family amounted to SO, Los, 900,
and repairs to the palaces and Mosques
$4O0, 900, not TO speak of the 'ex-sultan's
passion for building, which has swallowed
up at least s2,SOO,0OO. His nominal
civil list being only s6,7OO,OOO, the re-
mainder Of the slO,00O.0O0 necessarily
figured in the annual budget under other
and deceptive heads. This prodigality
added to the expense of recognizing the
army and navy, ruined the finances of
the country, and was the fruitful cause
