West Springs Items.
For the Times


Mr.. II, II. Robinson. one of our Commission
ers, was in our little village a few days ago. lie
had n wagon along, and VIC have been listening
every day since for the order to shoulder axes
spades, and hoes, and work the roads.
We have heard Of the hens of Massachusetts
that were too conscientious to lay on Sunday !;
but they were wise enough to know when Sun.
day came. Ours are equally conscientious, but
not so wise, and for fear of doing something
wrong they refuse TO lay at oil.
We were just thinking of writing an obituary
of the West Springs Base Ball Club, but this fine
weather seems to have the desired effect and we
are saved the trouble. Judging from the material
this club has in training, West Springs will not
be far behind this season in this manly sport.
Your correspondent finds by visiting the mill,
| Of the enterprisipg West Bros. that all the cot
ton of our community is not yet sold. These
gentlemen have at their gin twenty five or thr.
ty bales still unginned, and others are still haul.

MobleY on the Rampage.


This ubiquitous individual appears to have re-
tired from the pulpit and taken to politics
again. He has been preaching in Mecklenburg
County, n. c., for about year, but when the
Radical Executive Committee of South Carolina
one of whom he is which-was called together
he came down from the pulpit, laid his bible
asiIe-if he hos one-and again took his place
among his old associates in corruption aud in .
fanny. We are told, but do not vouch for the
truth of it, that when he returned to his charge
in Mecklenburg, after the meeting Of the Exec
utive Committee, he managed to get up q fuss
| among the members Of the church and then, in
seeming indignity, resigned.
lie has been here ever since, and we see him
on the streets button -holing every colored man
he meets from the country. He says boldly that
he intends running ticket in this County and
is organizing the party for :hat purpose. Well
perhaps he will and pei haps he won't. He is
"on the make" no doubt; but so long as the
colored people of Union believe as they do and
say, that "he sold all the niggers in Union Coun
ty for $500, at the last election" we don't SC,
where he will get his party from.

Death Of Judson Gibbs.


Our community was startled on Saturday
morning last by the sad news that Mr.. Julson
Gibbs, young man much loved by all Of us,
died at Spartanburg the night before, from an
sbscess in the head and measles.
But few young men in any community bore
purer christian character than Mr. Gibbs, and
although quite q young man, we have reason to
know that both by his precept and example he
exercised n very salutary influence over the con-
duct Of many wayward young mon who came
within the range of his acquaintance. He was
what might truly be called an ever watchful
working christian, and, so far as man can judge,
| from his pure walk and conversation while liv-
ing, he has gone to meet his reward in the Heav-
emily Kingdom and his works will follow him.
He was the only surviving son Of Rev. John
Gibbs of this county, his brother, very prom
ising young man, having died while attending
college At Greenville little over year ago.
AS On evidence of the love and respect held
for him by the young men of this community a
committee Of his acquaintnnces met at the depot
on Saturday morning and received his body and
on the following day all who could attended hi
fune,a al at the family burying ground at Padg
ett's Creek church, some miles from town.
We sincerely sympathise with his venerable
parents and sisters in their sad bereavement.

The First Shad,

Inc FIRST Shad.
nn nszo,..i = ar-.l~-oA- TO MT. c. r-~-
| gregory for splendid row suau u".vn we EN-.
Joyed very much last Sunday. It was as fine
shad as we have seen for many years. Mr..
gregory proposes to keep q fish Market in con-
nection with his Beef market, if sufficient en-
cour"gement is given him; and we would here
remind our citizens tAat the reason why we do
not have a regular supply of fish during the
season is, instead of concentrating their patron
age upon one individual, so as to make th :.
business reliable as we'll as profitable for any
one to engage in, they encourage q dozen or
more to order fish and divide their patronage
among them, the result is, nobody makes any
thing out of it and over half the season our
market is not supplied.
There is one other thing we have noticed late.
iy: Either Mr.. Gregory selects better ca tile for
killing than heretofore brought to this market,
or the fence law has had the desired effect of
compelling the owners to takc better care Of
their stock, for there is decided improvement
in the quality of beef sold hsre.

Excursion to Charlotte,

Excursion to Charlotte.
The go-ahead merchants of the progressive
City Of Charlotte are getting up free excur-
sion to that city. TO commence on the 1st Of
March and cna on the 10TH This is very lib
eral and attractive move on the part of Charlotte,
and we have no doubt will rebound to the bene
fit of oil parties. But few Of our Merchants or
other citizens have any idea of the immense
stocks of goods carried by the Charlotte mer-
chants or the advantages they offer to pur-
chasers, and we advise all who wish to buy, at
Wholesale or retail, to take advantage of the
excursion trip and visit that wide awake com.
munity One thing we know, cleverer set of
gentlemen don't live than the merchants of Char
iot'e' and when they propose to be liberal and
hospitable, they don't stop until they have
h!led your cup full of both. We honestly be.
iieVo goods can be bought ss cheap at Charlotte
as at any other market this side OF New York !:
and we have seen goods from Charlotte laid
down here cheaper than from New York.

The BLUE RIDGE RoAD.-Both houses of the
general assembly passed the bill to facilitate the
completion of the Blue Ridge road, which will
supply the missing link connecting Charleston
with the Cincinnati Southern railroad via Knox

scriptions to the enterprise. In section the
State agrees to remit all taxes and penalties now
due oil the railroad and all taxes except the
school tax for the next years, provided the
work shall be begun by the first of January,
1881, and be completed in three years. In sec
tion the state pledges its faith to remit all state,
for twenty years consccuively to parties begin
ent terminus by the first of January, 1881, and

from that date. Section 6 defines as one of the
conditions Of the act that parties accepting its
benefits shall build the road from Walhalla in
the direction Of Clayton, Ga, and thence to
Knoxville, and that when completed they shall
never discriminate against the interests Of any
ports of this state, offer better terms of freight
or passage 10 any other ports, or enter into any
combination with the roads within or without
the state, by which they shall discriminate in
favor of any other port over Charleston, and any
persons hereafter coming in possession of tho
road shall take it subject to the terms of this
section. Persons owning or operating said road
shall not have the right to make any discrimna.
tion against Charleston, either by rebates OF
special rates, nor in any other way, nor combine
or pool with any other companies to do so. Sec
tion authorizes the putting Of as large q mort

scarcely a cent of profit on subscriptions, and
we cannot give credit. Those who do not settle

blame us if they do not receive paper after
that week. In order to "make both ends meet
at the end of the year we shall be compelled to

preference to reducing the size or increasing
