LF.soM AN OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT
The health of the people in this
ncighborhood is. very good, excepting
only few mild cases of pneumonia.
The people have gone we'll to work on
their farms. We have a fair prospect
for agood crop Of oats, but wheat is
looking rather badly OH account Of tho
fly. We hope, however, that the cold
of the past few days will put an
end to the pest. Labor is somewhat
scarccr than it was this time last year,
but it is good. The best of feeling ex-
lists between the two races, and home
leaving, hog-stealing and the like seem
to be no more. The colorcd people
seem to have opened their eyes to their
tue interests. Some of them in this
section are doing very well, owning
good stock, wagons, farming implc-
mcnts, etc. The general outlook
about here is good. Money is moro
plentiful than ever, and on good paper

Professor Busby, and the other by that
equally esteemed lady, Miss Lizzie

tunitics, it will be our own fault.
There is hardly any way to force a

We shall find"
We hear but little about politics.
We sincerely hope that General Gary
and our honored Hampton, as we'll

man, Colonel Haskell; will discontinue
to agitatc their by-gonc troubles. The
most common mind can sec that this
is no time for such things. We are
told every day of q new party, and
are constantlyhcaring that tho Demo.

TIE TELEGRAPH OEFICE.-Thc Office
of the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany has been moved back to the pas
senger depot, to the great convenience
OF tho people. Of Winnsboro. The
office was moved in consequence of q
misunderstanding between the two
corporations. The Railroad Company
has for some time been desirous of the
change, but the agreement was only
made recently, and tho office moved
back on Friday. Mr.. S. X. McDon-
aid, an experienced operator, is again
in charge. The present management
ofthcRoad is much more accommodate
Ing than it's predecessor was. AS we
have often said, spirit of liberality
will pay tenfold. The stock of the
Road is also rising and promises to be
better in tho future.
The B. P. UEIoN.-Wo learn that
the members Of the Bachelors Protec-
tive Union intend to hold preliminary
meeting this evening IN the Town Hall
and take steps to cxpel those Of their
humber who have rendered themselves
obnoxious to the aims and principles
of the organization. The Union
isnot in o triving condition just at
present; for at least two-thirds of tho
members have rendered themselves
liable to the penalties prescribed in the
article Of the constitution providing
for expulsion. We say this without
fear, favor or affection, reward or the
hope Of reward. There have been ell
tirely too many "moonlight drives"
for tho good Of tho Union, and Art. s
Of the constitution, known as the
"candy and soda-water rule" has be-
come dead letter, and hence has no
binding effect upon the members.
Nearly oil the provisions Of the consti-
tnHon have bGen most grossly violated,
