themselves moro accomplished in The
art OF storing away provisions than in
spreading them out. This portion of
the programme went off well, and we
think every one enjoyed the capital
rcpast.
After dinner the judges, Coils. Elllin
and Lamar, and Mr.. S. Y. McQuattcrs,
declared that Private Haynes had won
the prize by scoring fourteen, or one
less than the maximum. Scrgcants Davis
and Lowther and Privatcs Walker and
Lamar scored thirteen each. Few
scored less than ten, and the entire
shooting was pronounced by Col.
Elliin to be the best he had ever wit
messed. The prize, a small imitation,
in silver, of the Crccdmorc target, and
aprcscnt to the company from Captain
Dcsportcs, is to be shot for yearly, and
each winner is expected to add another
bar-pcndant inscribed with his name
and score. Thus in time it will become
quite beautiful badge, and will be
worn with pride by the best shot of the
year. Major Thomas III a very pretty
and appropriate speech delivered the
prize, and cautioned the wcarcr that
his laurcls be not plucllcd from his
brow at the ncXt match. He consoled
the unsuccessful competitors by saying
that they had done well, and had only
lost by their comrades doing better.
The II. r.. G.'s then gave three rousing
cheers, at tho Captains proposal, for
their newly elected major. Returning
to headquarters, the company was dis
missed to assemble for drill on Thursday
evening. The "IIop" at night was
quite success, and VIC were pleased
to welcome some of our fcllow-soldicrs
ofthc G. l.. I. in their handsome uni
form, as well as some of the other Doro
boys. The beauty and intellect Of the
fair sex Of Winnsboro were also accU
represented Oh the grounds and at the
hop. Thus ended the pleasures of the
day. RIELEMAN.

Anniversary Parade and Practice Of
Cupid.
(CoRREspoNDENCE OF THE NEWS AND HERALD
RIDGEwAY, September 30.-Friday,
the 9th ult., was chosen by the lIamp-
ton Rifle Guard on which to celebrate
the anniversary Of their organization.
a few days prior to Friday the wealth
CT was very threatening, and the clouds
forcibly reminding us Of the time when
our organization first originated. In
the gloomy days of '7G, when the po-
litical sky was SO heavily overcast, and
Chamberlain and his associates were
seen above the horizon rs thunder
clouds threatening destruction to our
devoted country, and when TIE News
AND HERALD came touS with the tidinGS
OF those dreadful riots at Cainhoy and
Charleston, then it was that the law
abiding and peaceful citizens Of Ridge
way and vicinity were aroused to the
true state Of affairs. 1t was at this
time that might have been seen going
to some place Of rendezvous all the
men ofour village, from the gray-hcads
to tho bcardlcss boys, all with dctcrmi-
nation written OH their brows. The
object of these meetings was to Or
ganizc for the protection Of our homes
and fircsidcs, and to render assistance
to any other section that might call on
us for aid. All this may and probably
does seem foolishncss to any one who
did not participate in the excitement of
those times. A collection of men
without any special leader, and with
no.goycrnmcnt except mutual interest,
was gradually organized into riflo
company with r. S. Dcsportcs, Esq,
as captain. The next event in our his
tory was our disbandment by his Ex-
ccllcncy CD Governor Chamberlain.
To this we apparently submitted, but
were all tho time as unit. Under the
home rule of Governor Hampton the
company again hung its flag to tho
brccze, and adopted its present name.
1t having been decided by the compa-
ny to celebrate their anniversary each
year by shooting match and picnic,
last Friday was selected as the day.
Tho company assembled at their head
quarters about nine o'clock, and pro-
ccedcd to their shooting ground near
Palmer's spring, about the best loca-
ton for a picnic we ever saw. Tho
firing, ut regular Creedmorc target,
q hundred yards, was commenced by
Orderly L. p. Davis, who struck tho
"black" and scored five. Shortly after
followed Haynes, Lowther and G.
Walker with score of five each. The
shooting continued, and out of ono
hundred and two shots only two or
three missed the target, and tho BULBS
eye had at least q dozen balls in it.
While the firing progressed, tho
Guards chattcd with the fair scx, many
of whom graccd tho occasion with thcir
presence, and alas! one soldier so far
forgot himself as toactually degrade his
bayonct by using it on tho sly to impalo
some pickle for his fair companion.
The Guards were thcn marched to the
spring, and the sergeants detached to
spread out the bountiful supply of re-
freshmonts furnished by the ladies.
The detail, however, must fain call on
the ladies' for assistance, declaring
