We would advise farmers not to be
frightened out of raising reasonable
number of hogs for next years feeding.
There is always loss attending changes
from one branch of farming to another
too suddenly. 1t is the safer plan not to
er-stock with any kind of live stock,
or, when established in any branch of
the business of feeding stock, to abandon
it on account of low prices one year. A
great many persons are apt to be infiu-
enced by the same cause in . similar
way, and comparative scarcity causes
the price to advance. The same rule
holds good in the cultivation of grain
and other vegetable crops. A diversity
of staple crops is the best system for the
majority of farmers to pursue, and once
established, do not be driven from . we'll
matured system by slight and possibly
transient reverses.-Kaasas Farmer.

For the Times.
From Bogansvills. :,

MR, EDITOR IL see in your last issue that
you wish some information from each Township
in the county and being citizen Of Bagansvillo
l am disposed to give you some news OF my
Township. We the border Township to
Spartauburg County, and blessed with the finest
and purest water that gushes from the earth
not only freestone but mineral, but their chem
ical properties l am not able to give. l how
ever can safely say the West Springs water has
very superior medicinal qualities, particularly
for the of such diseases rs Dyspepsia,
chronic Diarrhea and general debility, &c.
This Spring has never received its due merit for
its efficacy. Besides, we have what is called tho
Pruett Spring and Sulpher Spring both of
which have their share Of mineral properties,
but are of little note, and why because we
need capital to give them prominence; conve-
neuce OF access and n trial is all that is needed
TO give them n prominent place among the resorts
of note. But is this all.. our Township has to
boast Of? No, the half is not told. We have the
precious metaisyct unseen, such as gold the most
necessary us well rs most precious metal OF all,
and that in greater abundance than, in any 9TH
er section of the State. We have or gold
mines that have no equal anywhere in the State,
if properly worked and greater yield can be
hal with less labor than from any other mine. i
frequently hear of men who understood it, pan
ming out > to 8 pennyweights per day. The Note
Mine, the Thomson Mine, the Black Mine, the
Smith & PoSey Mine, all four rich in gold
and ii IS strange to me why capitalists do not
come and work them out. In my judgment it
is n second California. | hoTe the time will
soon comc when confidence will be restored and
capitol and labor become plentiful.
AS TO our Farming resources, they cannot be
surpassed anywhere. We have the North side
of Tiger River, the beautiful Stream of Fair For
est through our centre, and the far famed
Sugar Creek in our midst, leaving out 9TH
cr the minor streams such as old South says,
Inr r'.pv '.Nn CT hnr r1nrn,
with the finest of low lands djacent to upands.
Where is the Township that can beat this. Be-
sides, we have about three miles square that is
called the Mcadowwoods that abounds with
what is called the Negro Head rock which is
supposed by some to contain Iron ore. This
section is perfectly level and is good grazing
section for stock. | can't say anything about
the Stock Law just now, but will give you news
as ithc law dcvclopcs, but think all well.

There seems to be n ccnccrt of action among

nifty than we have heretofore been accustomed
to.
Messrs. J. W. McLurc s. Co. arc pushing
their work at the Gold mine to the point where
we believe they will reap handsome income
They have just got their machinery to the Mine,
aud will doubtless, in Il few days, be getting the
pure gold dust from the ore. By-thc-way, this
is not the only Gold Mine in this bcauti
ful section of o'd Tnion and if we had q few
more such entcrprising men as the gentlemen
ut the head Of this we would soon startle the
country by the development Of the rich mineral
resources of our community. Mr.. Jno. Scery,
the efficient foreman ut the mine, and who for
a long time has made mining his business, says
the Mcl.urc Mine is one of the richest he has
ever worked.

Destructive Tornado at Walterboro.

We have not room for the full account Of n
dreadful tornado which passed over the town Of
Watcrboro, the County seat Of Co.leon County,
last Wednesday, Destroying nearly every house
in town, including seven churches, killing from
s to l. persons and seriously injuring several
others. So great was tlc destruction of prop
crty and so destitute were the people left that
the Governor has thought it necessary to appeal
TO the people of the State for prompt and sub
stantial aid.
From what we have read in the Daily papers,
almost every town in the State have already re-
spondei to the call and sent forward crcltablc
amounts to their suffering follow citizens of
Walterboro, and we cannot believe that the
people of Union will stand alone in refu-
sing to respond to this call unon their hu-
manity. We must do something for Waltcr5oro,
and that ut once. We hope some one or more
persons will move in the matter and get up SUBJ
scriptions for the sadly stricken people OF that
town. \ small sum from each one will not be
missed by us and will relieve the distress Of our
neighbors.

An Empty J all.

The dullcst place in this town is the Jail. 1t
has not had boardcr in it for more than two
weeks. Whether it is the law reducing the pay
for dieting prisoners or the busy season aot
allowing time for indulging in stealing, fighting
and other luxurics, which causes the stagnaton
in the Jail business, we cannot say, 1t what
ever it is We hope it will continue. While every
body else are grumbling about the dullncss of
trade the Sheriff appears to enjoy the wasn't of
business in his line.

held in the Methodist Church at this place the

and, 6eher Minis,er of that body, the fruits o.
which the Rev. r. d. Smart, the Pastor Of the
church, with his usual zeal for tae cause of his
Master determined should not be lost without
faithful effort on his part to save them. lie
therefore held series of meetings during the
week, at which he delivered daily sermons Of
uncommon power and effect, and laborcd inces-
sanity with those who cviEced any desire TO
hear and be convinced of the truth of the glorious
gospel of Christ. We are glad to state his "a
bors were not in vain, and that he was rewarded
by the addition of seven converts 10 the church
Probably no Minister was ever stationed in
this town who has been more faithful to the
high and noble calling of christianity than Rev.
Il. d. Smart, and not one has commnnIed more
of the love and confidence OF every class and rci
gious belief of the community. lie is no orii-
