Judge Cothran speaking of the
report that he is possible candi-
date for Congress, says, Gas unwil-
lingly as 1 may be personally, to
thrust my name before the public,
it is nevertheless due to my Of
fetal position, to say most emphati-
cally that I have neither desire for
the position indicated, nor the van
ity to believe that my services as a
member of Congress could in any
wise be indispensable to the well
fare of the State

A meeting of Barnwell farmers

A meeting of Barnwell farmers
was held at Blackville last Thurs
day, and The South Carolina
Truck Farmers Association" organ
lied, it's object being to promote the
interest and develop the enterprise
of fruit and vegetable growing in
that section Of the country. They
will at once make arrangements
with responsible parties with whom
consignments can be made in the
principal Northern and Western
cities. The South Carolina Rail
way Company, being anxious to
aid in the development Of the coun-
try, has arranged special tariff
for fruits and vegetables, putting
the rates so as to realize but very
small profit for the company.

Something New About the Sun.

Although Solomon told US, nearly
5000 wears ago, that ''There is no new
thing under the sum-" it is well
established fact that some startling dis
coveries have recently been made IN
the sun.
! Men have always had some vague
idea of its heating power, but OF its
other mighty agencies and influences
they were largely ignorant.
It is a subject as fascinating us it is
instructive, and it is worthy OF our
earnest attention, especially when so
admirable Il work as ''1he Celestial
Symbol Interpreted" advertised in an
other column, published by j. c. Nc
Curdv & Co., Philadelphia, Cincinnati,
Chicago and St. Louis,} is within the
reach of every one.
The learned author not only acquaints
us with. and makes plain the newest
scientific discoveries, but he also
teaches, at every step, some great moral
truth.
Lest we be accused of undue en-
thusiasm in speaking OF this book, we
take the liberty of quoting the opinion
of the able and critical n. Y. Observer:
'sThis work has been carefully eX-
amined by eminent, learned and ortho-
dox divines, who unite in testifying to
its great beauty, usefulness ahd truth.
TO some, the analogies may appear
strained, yet they are not more 50 than
the fgurative language OF the Bible
fairly warrants, and the Illustrations
are fitted to exalt our conceptions of
the glory of God in nature, and
especially as it is seen in the brightest
of all His works. The reader finds the
evidences of Gods powerand goodness
constantly reflected from the Sun in
these pages, and is led from admira-
ton up to that alteration which be-
comes the creature contemplating his
Divine Maker" 1t

The Philadelphia Record speaks
in commendation Of Senator But
Ter, as patriot and philanthropist,
and says: We do not hesitate to
aver that if he gives his mind to
the Carolina roads, and succeeds in
bringing to bear the power Of the
State in making and keeping in or
der her public highways, he will
have done a more essential service
to his fellow-men than he ever
did before.

On the 2nd, the Columbia Board
of trade pledged $500 to enable
South Carolina to take her place in
the Boston Exposition next fall, and
adopted a resolution asking the
State Board of Agriculture to lend
ahelplng hand. We hope that the
State will be represented, but
we cannot see that the Board of
Agriculture has the authority to
make an appropriation for that pur-
pose. The Board should not let
the press force it to do what it has
no right to do.

THE NEWRERRY COTTON MILLS.

When the Newberry Cotton Mills
were incorporated in 1882, many
persons believed that the charter,
like that of 1872, would never be
Of greater practical value than the
paper on which it was printed.
Our capital was timid, our people
were not accustomed to manufac-
lures, end, as a rule, they knew lit
tie about any other than real estate
investments. Even the most san
gnne felt that, owing to the temper
of our citizens and the novelty and
magnitude Of the enterprise, much
patience and time and hard work
would be required to raise the mon
ey necessary for the erection OF a
factory. Results, however, have
leaped beyond expectation, On
ly a few months ago the corporators
appointed a committee to receive
subscriptions; at the meeting last
Monday, the chairman of that COM
mittee reported that the subscrip-
tions reached the sum of $157, ,000--
seven thousand above the limit at
which the organization was to be
effected. These are money sub
scriptions; they are perfectly sound,
and represent the very best busi,
ness men of our county.
The company is now organized,
and the character of the men who
compose the Board of Directors,
gives assurance of an economical
and successful management of the
concern. By experience they know
the Importance of labor and the val,
ne of a dollar. They are, without
exception, men who, from q fnan.
cial point of view, have ayouched
their merit by the best of all tests,
the successful management of their
own affairs. Representing at least
two thirds of the capital stock, they
look upon the enterprise as an in.
vestmcnt that must be conducted
so as to yield a fair per cent. They
are very different in mould, but
they are alike in being earnestly
and practically bent upon one end
profit, with, of course, such inciden-
tai advantages as will necessarily
flow to the community from the
success Of this enterprise.
1t has been shown that our
favorable situation will be q set,
off against any disadvantages
that may result from a lack OF
water power, and we believe
that the success Of the venture
is now assured. All feel that
the factory will bring incalculable
benefit to the town and county.
The only doubt that ever existed
was as to the probability of success.
We think that doubt has been re-
moved, and Newberry will soon lis
ten to the rush Of looms and the
hum of spindles.

a Perfect Remedy in 20 Diseases.


1 am verging on eighty years, and deem it
my duty TO suffering humanity TO say that
my long life is due 10 BRANDRETH's PILLS
which have been my sole medicine for half a
century. know The last forty-three years of
my life is owing solely to their use. Your
PILLS saved me many times after the best
medical skill in several States had given me
up as hopeless. have had many converts
to purgaiion with BRANDRETH'S PILLS, and
have seen them perform almost miracles of
cure. For children, a few doses have cured
measles, scarlet fever, and whooping cough.
In all female troubles and weakness I have
never known them TO fail. In adult males |
have known them TO cure the worst cases OF
dyspepsia, rheumatism, kidney diseases, dys-
entry and diarrhoea; even dropsy, paralysis,
and apoplexy have yielded to a persistent
course of BRANDRETH's PILLS. In fact |
have found them the true Life Elixir. They
act as continual preventives against the
effects of time, disease, and labor.
