Correspondence of the YorkvilIe Enquirer
80 LETTER FROM ROCK HILL.


Rock HILL, S. c., January l9.-The town
election for Intendant and Wardens, on the
18th instant, was quite lively contest, there
being two tickets. A meeting of the citizens,
on Saturday previous, nominated regular
ticket from which majority bolted on the
day of election. The regular nominee tor
Intendant was also the choice of the bolters.
The ticket elected is as follows Intendant-
Capt. Allen Jones; Wardens-J. V. McFad-
den, R. j. Hagans, w. L. Roach, D. Hutch
ison. The council, on assuming their duties,
elected w. M. Steele as town marshal, and
w. M. Frew as secretary and treasurer.
In addition to the sale of lots mentioned in
my last, of the j. N. McElwee property, anoth
er has been sold from the same parcel, to 1. e.
Robertson & Co. During the coming sum
mer it is probable our town will be made
lively by the sound of the saw, hammer and
trowel. {
A new mercantile firm has been formed in
our town-Howe u Brown-as successors to
j. M. Howe & Co., which firm was dissolved
by mutual consent.
Hon. I. D. Witherspoon paid US protes-
sional visit last Friday and Saturday. We
were glad to see him looking so we'll. He
seemed to be in fine spirits, and expressed
himself as highly pleased with the beauty,
life and prosperity of our little town.
The members of Terpsichorean Society
gave complimentary hop last Friday night,
in Roddy's hall, in honor Of our worthy
young friends, Mr.. and Mrs. Walter j. Moore,
the marriage of whom was consummated in
the city of Charleston on 3lst of December
last. Mrs. Walter j. Moore, nee Miss Bessie
Mofet, is no stranger in this community. She
was the assistant teacher in Mrs. Reids school.
While here in that capacity and occupation,
she endeared herself to all who had the pleas
ure of forming her acquaintance. We gladly
welcome her in our midst as Mrs. Moore.
/ learn that the post Office at Fort Mill was
broken open last Wednesday night though l
have heard no particulars
A fearful complaint comes to US from
many farmers that the fly is working great
havoc on the wheat. Some fields, which
were green and beautiful last week, to day
present the appearance of dead stubble The
strange part of the visitation is that while
one field is devastated by the insect, the ad'
joining field is unmolested.
Our town is now the owner of new and
beautiful hearse, built by W. G. Reid q Co.,
of this place. LUX.

The above extraordinary yield Of cotton and
corn, made on the average lands of Ansou Co.,
N. c., speaks for itself. The amount made with
the use of the 'HOME FERTILIZER" alone !;
a manure manipulated at home. We can give
you many other cases, just as strong and authen-
tic On the success. of the "HOME'' there are
and will be, hundreds of limitations; formulas
started similar to ours for one or two dollars per
ton less, of cheap and often impure chemicals.
So beware. Buy the genuine, when you know
you will get good, cheap and reliable manure.
The "HOME FERTILIZER" mixed at home,
without Cotton Seed or Stable Manure, will make
more cotton or corn, for amount of money invest
ed, than any Fertilizer on the market. Ware
