Mr.. TeL.c Reid planted one-eighth of an
acre in Irish potatoes last spring, and after
using them plentifnlly for family of eight
during the growing season, and when the
crop had matured he gathered fifteen bushels.
Thislwas q handsome yield, and shows that
Mr.. Reid understands the culture of this
excellent vegetable.
We regret to announce the death of Mrs.
Nancy Braswell, which occurred at her resi-
dence rear Honea Path on Friday last. She
was eigaty-six years old, and died within a
few days of her elder brother, the late Mr..
Silas Massey. She had been member Of
the Baptist Church for ffty-one years, and
had raised sixteen children. Her many rel
atives and friends mourn her death.
The sorchlght procession at Abbeville on
Friday night was an imposing affair, and
was participated in by great many of our
citizens Y Speeches were made by q number
of gentlemen, including Maj. E. NJ. Rucker,
whowent down with the Andersonians. 1t
is little peculiar that the Radicals were
attempting to have similar demonstration
at the same hour in Columbia, but "Provi-
dence failed to smile on them" as the heavi-
est storm known this season put out their
torches and dispersed the motley gang.
ON Saturday, 10th inst, a large Democrat
ic flag was hoisted in Williamson just over
the Railroad at the depot, where it can be
seen all oyer town. It was raised by the
Hampton Legion, Company D, who were

raised, Dr. II. /. Epting and several colored
men addressed the crowd The cololed men
all spoke for Hampton. After thespeaking,
the Company, dressed in uniform, mounted
horses ind rode all over the town with
shouts snd hurrahs Williamson Is very
enthusiastic on politics, and expects a big
time on the 18th inst.
We wduld again call the attention Of our
readers, aud especially those who are inter
ested in machinery, to the advertisement of
Messrs. Poole & Hunt, so widely and favora-
bly, known as Engineers, Founders and
Machinists. Ever determined to be among
the first in the grand march Of Improvement,
andto keep pace with the marvellous advance
of the age in science and mechanics, this firm

capacity and appliances Of their splendid
establishment. Their new pattern and price
lists, with many valuable additions, are now
ready for distribution, and will be sent,
postage-paid, to those who make application

ceptionally large and comprehensive list of
miscellaneous machinery patterns.
MEssRs. EDIroRs: I rejoice to see and hear
from the various Democratic Clubs of our
County that the good work is going so brave
ly on. write to press it upon the minds OF
the citizens of our County not to fail voting
at our primary election for Auditor and
Treasurer. Our people have choice as to
who should fill these offices, and let them
express that choice by their votes, no matter
whether &heir man has been nominated or
not by any of the Clubs. This is the good
old way. am getting to be quite an old
man, but it makes my heart rejoice and beat
