Beulah Oh q Boom.

BETHLEHEM, FLORENCE Co., Aug. 30
llL. Editor: Although We are in an
other county, and much against our
will, we read the Manning papers with
pleasure, and take great interest in
the welfale OF cid Clarendon, as we
congratulate ourselves in having
many true and tried friends within
her bounds. Long may she prosper
The candidates for election in Flor
ence county had their meeting at
Beulah according to announcement
on the 10th inst. Everything passed
off amicably, although it was feared
that there would be ''war Of words
between Nh. L. S. Bigham and some
of the candidates who want to be re-
elected. This was the first visit Of a
good many of them to this section OF
country, and they expressed them
selves as being agreeably disappointed
in the looks of the country, as also in
the manners, habits, &c, of the in
babitants. They were under the i'm
preston that Beulah was situated in
a mere frog-pond, and that its quiet
denizens were serenaded at night by
the frogs, and lulled to gentle slum-
Der by the soothing and melodious
tones of that much talked about and
much felt insect, the mosquito. 1t was
happy circumstance that delayed
their visit a few weeks, or they might
have been tempted to exclaim in re-
gard to the mosquitoes, that "the
half had not been told" They were
also under the impression that the
social status of this favored corner of
civilization was only few degrees
above barbarism. They were most
agreeably surprised however to meet
with so much intelligence and hospi-
tality, and could speak from personal.
experience, that. they had been most
kindly entertained during their short
stay.
Our future town of Beulah is max
ing slow but sure progress, as will be
seen when I tell you that there will
soon be two stores in full blast.
Messrs. Baker & Floyd own one, and
Mr.. @. J. Joyner, an enterprising
young merchant, has built and will
soon have his store well stocked with
general merchandise. We can then
boast of two stores. one steam saw
and grist mill and gin, one church, an
academy, postoffce, and four Or five
residences in sight of the church. Now
who Will say that Beulah is not on a
boom, and that she may at no distant
day aspire to the honors of village? ?
A railroad is the only thing we need
now to connect us with the outside
world,-one leading from Lake City
to Lynchburg would materially ad-
vance our prospects in the direction
Of the proposed village.
Corn and potato crops are fine.
Cotton is injured by TOO much rain,
only two-thirds crop IS anticipated.

Along Wanted Necessity.

Mr.. Gustave Alexander, our popular jew
eler and optician, has at great expense, pro-
cured an optometer, or eye tester, with
which he can readily determine what is the
matter with your eye, and can tell
whether tie use Of glasses is nee
essary or not. Many persons are buy
ing glasses from any dealer, and think as
long as they can see through them they fit,
but this is very great mistake. glass
only fit for awhile, and not properly fitted,
must soon ruin your eyesight, which is
priceless to any one.
If you want pair of glasses properly fit
ted 90 at once to Mr.. G. Alexander, who
will examine your eyes free Of charge, and
will fit you with the proper glasses at very
low prices. keep spectacles and eyeglass-
es in stock from Is cents up, IN gold, silver,
and steel frames.
1t don't matter whether You desire to get
glasses Or not any person can come and
have their eyes tested free Of charge.

from the medicine itself. That is, those
who are cured by it, speak to friends suffer.

fit and urge others to try this successful
medicine. Thus the circle Of its popularity
is rapidly widening from this cause alone,
and more and more are becoming enthusi-

actually demonstrates its absolute merit.
All that is asked for Hoods Sarsaparilla is
that it be given fair trial. If you need a

Hare, Druggist, Bellville, Ohio, affirms:
The best selling medicine 1 have ever
handled in my 20 years experience, is Elec-

added their testimony so that the verdict
is unanimous that Electric Bitters do cure
all diseases Of the Liver, Kidneys, or Blood.

s GOOD APPETITE

Is essential to good health; but at this sea.
SON it is often lost, owing to the poverty OF
impurity of the blood, arrangement OF the
digestive organs, and the weakening effect OF
the changing season. Hoods Sarsaparilla Is
wonderful for creating an appetite, tonlng
the digestion, and giving strength to the
whole system. Now is the time to take It.
Be sure to get Hoods Sarsaparilla.

The London telegraph pays a high compli-
ment to President-elect Harrison when it says
that anybody he sends minister to England
will be persona grdtd, but takes the taste of
this out by its other statement that the English
people have lwayscontrived TO make our min
listers ''more English than they were before
they came to England" If by this is meant
that the representatives of our country lose
any Of their loyalty in their admiration and
affection for the motherland il is something of
which we have no reason to feel proud. If.
however. the remark signifies simply that
Americans improve their knowledge of English
people and institutions by residence among
them, We may say quite as much for the effect
produced upon Englishmen when this condi-
ton is reversed. The London cockney who
visits the United States and learns that he can
not shoot Indians from the windows in Bunker
Hill monument or chase the wild bison on
Broadway, is marked Improvement upon his
brother who STAYS at home and cherishes the
fond decisions of his youth: and even the cul-
tivated habitue of West End drawing-rooms,
who discovers that educated and refined Amer
leans are not very different from educated and
refined persons of other nationalities has ac-
tually taken stride in Americanism him
self.

Philadelphia statistics show that the suicides

the astonishing number of 90, more than three
times as many the homicides. The Quiet

The episode in which Lord Lytton figured in
q most conspicuous way, few years ago. as
one of the patrons of beautiful circus-rider,
who foated through In1ia on a cloud of white
tulle, created so greats scandal as to cause his
lordship's transfer at an early day. More than
dozen years ago a show caravan of six
wagons. twenty or thirty men and women. and
eighty horses, was stopped at the frontier
while attempting to pass from Germany to
Belgium, and was the cause of diplo-
matte correspondence by telegraph,
in which even so great a magnate
as Prince Bismarck took part. There was also
started on its travels, about the same time. a
newspaper story of the operations of some per-
sons of note in American public life, in turn
ing the consular service of the United States
into an advertising medium for a travelling
menagerie and hippodrome. Now comes news
of the application Of Consul Astwood at San
Domingo and the government of the Domini-
can republic in behalf of a Snowman
who proposes to carry the mortal
remains of Christopher Columbus on
a tour of the United States. There is no rea-
son, perhaps, in strict logic, why the show bus
mess should not stand ON the same footing as
any other business. and enlist the service of
American consuls as intermediates when nee
essary. But in the unwritten ethics of such
matters there exist certain subtle distinctions:
and the rule which would permit a correspond
ence OF this sort over the sale of a Jumbo or
the taking of cast from the regalia in London
Tower will not bear stretching to the point of
proposing partnership enterprise between a
government and amuseum-manager in rafting
great mans bones over our country for exhi-
bition at half-dollar head.
