A NAN OF HIS WoRD.-We we're
indeed grati6ed Tuesday TO zee our
good friend Mr.. Jas. Team in town.
He is literally q man of his word.
Last spring when the willows first be-
gan 10 bud, and the trout to run, this
noble old three score and ten year SOD
of South Carolina, said,: RI mean to be
at the polls in November, even if l 60
upon bed" He has been here, and
his conduct in the matter is praisewor-
thy and makes US feel proud Of that
portion of Western Wateree, which has
always been to us place of pride.
1t is in striking contrast with some
Of younger years. and while we give
praise to our venerable friend for doing
his duty while the hand Of diease held
him strong in its ruthless rivet, We will
rot forget to pay our respects in our
next issue to those who. to-day while
our mother state is being straugled, have
failed even to raise finger in her de-
fense. God is truly merciful to spare
such people.

From Stokes Bridge.

The Colt Show held at the Gully
Camp Ground on the End Of the pres
ent month, was well represented by the
citizens of this section, some of whom
brought off premiums for fine colts.
AS the Circuit Court is now over,
this community breathes free again.
Messrs. i. A. Woodham, George Bruce
and Ed. Skinner, who were tried for
the murder of Euberry Woodham, were
acquitted. Both sides were we'll repre-
sented, Messrs. Townsend and Townsend
assisting the Solicitor in the prosecution
of the case, aud Major A. G. Spain and
Generals Noise and Kennedy appear
ing for the defense. In his speech,
Gen. Kennedy alluded to the people
of the Lynches Creek section, saying
they were chiefly Of Scotch and Irish
origin, the best people the sun ever
shone upon.
The weather is fine, and potato dig
ging and corn gathering is now the or
der of the day. Both of these crops
are very good. Cotton picking still
continues, but hands are scarce. The
cotton stalks have taken on at least half
a crop of young bowls, which are now
about half grown. If a killing Frost is
delayed fourteen days an average crop
will be gathered. Will writo you
again soon. j. H. R.

to Him, who gave His own most
precious life for them and us, Thine
only Son, our Lord.
If d time shall ever come when
Thy people shall fall away from
that faith in which these brave men
died; if, when they have beaten
their swords into ploughshares and
their spears into pruning hooks,
their love of country and of duty
shall grow cold; or if distress and
trouble come upon Thy people and
mems hearts fail them, as they look
abroad and see the storm cloud
gathering about them, then let their
faces be turned toward this monu-
ment which we have dedicated to
our dead. Let this stately column
be to them pillar Of fire to cheer
and to lead them in the day of their
dependency and gloom. Let those
noble forms, which stand like slesp-
less sentinels guarding the honor Of
their comrades fame, speak to the
four corners of the earth, and let.
their words be borne, like the archan~.
gels trumpet, upon the four winds
of heaven, and tell throughout the
world how grand and how noble a
thing it is to die even for O cause
which men call lost. And so
through all the ages, in the brave
times of prosperity and in the faint
hearted times of adversely, let this
stately pile stand like the ''smitten
rock in the desert, round which the
people gathered in their thirst"
And now, 0 Lord, We commend
it and its sacred memories into Thy
holy keeping. If angry, or bitter,
or reyengeful thought be in our
hearts to>day as we stand here to
commemorate our dead, let it not
stain or sully the purity of the of,
fering which we have made and
reared to their name, but hear Thou
in heaven, Thy dwelling place, and
where thou nearest, forgive! Grant
that the burning words of eloquence
which we have heard this day may
be so grated in our hearts that they
bring forth in US the fruit of the un-
selfish life. Pour out Thy blessing,
o Lord, upon this our land, ,Eand es.
pecially upon this commonwealth of
ours. Bless us in the city and in
the field, in our going out and conn.,
ing in, that ''peace and happiness,
truth and justice, religion and piety,
may be established among US for all
generations" All of which We ask
in His name who gave His life for
worlds transgressions, Thy Son,
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

BREVITIES.

The Indian summer Is nearly over.
Good news from nearly the whole
State.
During the past week the weather
has been very pleasant. ..
Quantities of oats are being sown
around Camden this season.
Now our forests are painted with all
the hues of the rainbow.
Nearly all the cotton crop for this
season has been gathered in.
Only few small quarrels and sew
eral dog fights on election day.
Kershaw county is now thoroughly
purged of Radicalism. Democratic
medicine, pure and simple, did the
work.
Many farcical and amusing scenes
we're enacted during the day Tuesday.
To be appreciated they must have been
witnessed,
The firing of the cannon on Broad
street last Saturday broke great many
window glasses in the houses near
where the firing took place.
IA stitch in time" &c. So thought
those study Democrats who went to the
polls Just ahead of the Radical cohorts
two hours before the boxes were opend,
and stayed there!
The Radical ruf6ians, after they found
out that they could not take possession
ofthe polls and hold them throughout
the day as they have always done hero
tofo-e became utterly demoralized.
We have the authority of our County
Chairman for saying that the Demo
cratic clubs of Kershaw county may
now go into winter quarters, but must
preserve their organization intact for
the next campaign. ...- T.
| The impression got out among the
Radicals at an early hour that the
Democrats wanted them to vote the
Radical ticket. Clearing the Greek:
even with gifts in their hands" they
wouldn't do it. Poor, deluded vii
lians.
After order was effected at the polls
at half past seven o'clock in the morn
ing, and arrangements made for thu
voters to come up without being
"scrouged," the Radicals would no
vote, thereby showing that their objec
