Your correspondent had the pleasure OF
visiting Troy on the 9th Sunday to wit
ness the celebration of Children's Day in
the Baptist Church. The day dawned
upon us bright and balmv and by l
O'Clock the whole grounds were filled
with horses and buggies and the large
and c~ommodious church was rammcd and
packed. Every one one felt confident
that they would get richly paid and we
say they did and ten fold more. The
people Of Troy know no such word as
fail, as was clearly set forth by the
grand success attained. We must con-
graduate the officers of the Sunday
school and the scholars, especially those
who took part in the exercises for their
success on that occasion. The excel
lent music was furnished by Miss Nellie
| Morcy. The order Of service was as
follows
l. Organ voluntary.
2. Invocation by pastor.
3. Singing long meter doxology.
4. Scripture selection by assistant

5. Reading letter from DR.. Griffith by

AT this time an intermission of an hour
and and q half "as given for refresh
ments which was served in rear Of the
church. An invitation was given to nj!
to partake. There had been a nice table
arranged and everything passed off nice
ly until the hour arrived to assemble
again for a Sunday school mass meeting,
The superintendent called upon several
young men to address the Sunday school
but they all excused themselves by say
ing they had never done such a thing.
We think that is a poor excuse. How
can we expect the children to take an
interest in the Sunday schools when we
ourselves hold off and refuse to do our
part? Rev. Mr.. Smart gave us a good
practical talk, also the assistant super
intendent Mr.. Ike Sibert.

We are sure that Judge Cothran
could not be persuaded to ent r the
race for Congress, merely for the sake
Ell Abbeville. We are not sure that
Abbeville can point to a single advan-
vantage which she had enioyed more
than the other counties by reason of
having the representative for the last
ten years. Pickens has been admirably
represented, by one who is emphaticai-
iy a citizen of South Carolina. There
is not in out Judgement any aspirant
for Congress in this District who
wants TO be elected to keep some one
else out, or to keep any county from
securing its a Other things being
equal we agree with the Intelligencer.
that locality ought to have some Weight.
p'ckens Comfy has suffered a dcarth,
but her slips are young and can stand
more. We hardly think Abbeville
would try to beat us down; if she does,
there is some consolation in the fact that
it tokes her biggest club to down US. It
should be remembered that Abbeville
can do nothing by herself, and whatever
may be the motive prompting the sup
port which Jug Cothran may receive
in his county, We hasten to assure
all concerned, that he, would b., the last
mar to quench the fires of a laudable
ambition in the baeast Of anyone
There are stars rising on the political
horizon Of the Third District, which
will shine with lustre when there is
nothing left Of Judge Cothran, but his
exemplary deeds.
We know a slender young citizen,
with kin folks in every county in the
District who would much rather rep
resent it in Congress himself thar to
have any hard feelings among the
counties in regard to the place from
which the proper nan is to be selected

~. Tribble, Esq, Of this place, re-
Gently wrote to Judge Cothran concern
ing the suggestion Of his n%omipation for
Congress, and having received the fol-
lowing reply it is furnished for the
information Of the public. 1t may now
be considered certain hat Judge Goth

may be decided upon. Here is. the

SuMrEn, S. C, May rs, 1886.
j. l.. Tribblc, Esq, Anderson, S. c.
My Dear Sir: ! have your favor of the
18th inst, addressed to me at Abbeville.
In replying to sundry letters of like I'M
port received within the past two
months. l have expressed myself as be-
ing content with the official position
which | now hold. These communica-
tons, however, have been addressed to
individuals. l o feel called upon to
define my position clearly to the pub
lie.
1t is we'll known to my friends that l
have never sought or desired political
office of any kind. A public office is q
public trust, and one who holds such, to
some extent at least surrenders his right
to choose. Regarding it, further, as a
thing neither to be sought nor declined l
have only to say If the people Of this
Congressional District, after the retire
ment Of my neighbor and friend, Col.
Aiken, demand my services as his sue
ccssor, l do not feel at liberty to decline
to serve them, always bearing in mind
the distrust that l have of my own fit
ness for The position, contentment with
my present Office, and knowledge Of the
fact that there are others desiring the
office in question who are we'll qualified
for all of it's requirements.
Very respectfully and truly J5vurs,

We make the following extracts from
the catalogue
LOCATION
The Due West Female College is
situated in the pleasant village Of. Due
West, Abbeville County, S. G., one
hundred miles above Columbia and forty
niles below G%reenville. and within four
miles Of Donnald's station On tho Column
bia and G~reenville railroad. The eli
mate is one Of the most delightful in the
world, the atmosphere being pure and
bracing in winter, and not oppressively
warm in summer. The water is pure
ireestone and remarkably fine. In point
Of healthfulncss. therefore, Due. West
yields to no other place in America.
The society OF Due West and vicinity
is distinguished alike for intelligence
and sobriety, for refinement and morali-
ty.
H COLLEGE
The Due West Female College was
built in 1860, and was constructed Tor
the purpose for which it has since been
used. 1t is a large three-stoIy brick
building, 81 feet square, with two wings
two stories high and 44x32 feet each. 1t
contains 80 rooms, besides porticos, .piaz-
zas, cook room and pantries, affordiug
pleasant quarters for a family and rooms
for recitation and Society Hall.
THE ANNEX
We have completed at very consider
able expense a two. story annex to the
College building, 60x4O feet. The first
story contains ten Music rooms, a
Concert and Calisthenic Hall, and a
comfortable room for the Primary
Department. The second story is di.
yided into dormitorics and a Hall for
Painting. These rooms are in every
way comfortable. Qua boarding capace
" Isl huS greatly increased.
THE MUSIC DEPARTMENT.
From the organization Of the College
special attention has been given to
Ffusic-instrumental and vocaI-regard-
ing it not simply as an ornamental
branch, but. as being ~elevating and
refining as WE'LL Where the talent for
music has been given tits certainly accom-
panied by the obligation to cultivate it.
Hence the Due West Female College
has from the beginning employed the
best music teachers and given all pos
sible opportunities for the study of
music. and in this department the Col
lege is better equipped now than at any
previous time, having only -frst-class
teachers employed. 10 the vocal
department especially moae attention is
now given than ever before, MS we hope
and believe will BIS discovered in the
progress Of our pupils. Our arrange
ment for music is all that could be
desired.
