CHARLESTON, October Tt is
learned to-day that the ytstry OF ST
Nfarry's Catholic Church have DIS.
charged Deacon Jno. w. Kannapaux
and elected successor in his place
The cause which led to this is that
Kannapaux had made himself con.
spicuous in upholding DR.. Mellow
the slayer Of the late Captain f. w
Dawson, who was for many years q
member of ST. Mary's Church. Kan.
napaux is an especial admircr OF
Mellow and the congregation of St.
Mary's having heard of his actions
demanded his discharge. Kannapaus
is the Secratary of the La Fayette
Artillery, the only organization in
Charleston which has not expelled
or compelled Mellow to resign.
Mellow is still surgeon of that high
toned organization. All the honor
ary members OF the company have
resigned.

Our Richland Correspondence.

RIcnLAND, S. c., Sept. 80, 1889.
DEAR CouRIER: Mr.. Stoddard, Of
Westminster, who took the contract
for the building Of our new academy,
finally flickered out before he did
any work and the trustees had to re-
let the work. Messrs. John Ballin-
ger and M. Il. Hughs now have the
contract and commenced the work
to-day. We will in q few days see
the building complete.
There is an occasional bale of COT
ton on the market here, but the most
of our farmers prefer to get bid
here and then take their cotton TO
Seneca, where they generally get the
offer beaten; but our buyer says he
has about decided to quit bidding on
cotton headed for Seneca, unless the
farmers will agree to pay him half
they gain at Seneca by his bid. Last
week we saw man who went to
Seneca with two bales of cotton after
having bid on them here and re-
ceived 104 cents per pound for them,
while two other men took their cot
ton to the same town without get
ting bid before leaving home, con-
;saluei,iiy ono OF them received 10
cents per pound and the other 81
cents. Why is bale of cotton not
worth rs much before it has been cut
and priced by buyer five miles away
as it is aftorward?
Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Goodman were
in town OH Saturday last. We are
always glad to SEQ them and wish
they would come and settle in our
town.
Mr.. Luke w. Werner has gone to
Gainesville, Ga, to take charge of and
train number of fine horses.
Mr.. VIM. G. Foster has returned
home and will probably remain some
time.
Miss Virginia Burns, of Wcstmin-
ster, is visiting relatives in town.
Messrs. l.. d. and John Y. Strib-
ling are eanvassing in connection
with their other business for num-
Der of good books. MIR. John Strib-
ling is also selling patent roller at
tachment for sewing machines, which,
when applied to machine, renders
it very easy to move in any dircc-
ton. II,

The Washington correspondent of
the Charleston Nc,cs un0 Courier
says: The watch dogs of the Inde-
pendent Republican party in South
Carolina, "Col" Russell and "Judge"
Macusker, are still on guard in the
departments, and they manage to
gather up few minor post offices
and "iob-lot" appointments, which
are apparently "too small pickings''
for the representatives of the regular
organization. The "Judgc" and the
"Coloncl" can be found daily at the
post office department seeking infor-
nation, and making requests con-
corning the postal affairs in South
Carolina. They are untiring work
crs and there is an impression here
that they receive something besides
"glory" in payment for their labor.

Tho Farmers Now Move.

ATLANTA, October 1.-The ses-
sion Of the National Cotton Commit,
tee of the farmers Alliance last
night was more important than the
published proceedings indicated.
They agreed to recommend through
the usual channels that the various
sub-Alliances begin en- immediate
agitation toward having special ses-
sions of the Legislatures of the diff
ferent States called to pass laws to
suspend the collection of debts for
six months, so that farmers may not
be forced to sell their cotton until
tley can bring Liverpool to terms.
The argument used is that Liver
pool it using all its influence against
the farmers, and to defeat them in
their war against the bagging trust.
One of the strongest weapons in the
hands of the Liverpool people is the
collection laws of the various States.
If these could be suspended tho
farmers could hold their cotton and
break up the commercial rings and
thus compel Liverpool to accept cot
ton bagging and to raise the price of
cotton. The Georgia Legislature is
still i'll session and will likely be the
first called upon to take steps in de-
fence of the farmers as against their
enemies.

SENECA, S. c., October 8, 1889.
DEAR COURIER: Frank Green, a
young white man working at Lum-
kins' gin, got his foot caugh, IN a
belt last Saturday and his le.. was
broken below the knee befolc he
could get released. DR.. Stribling set
the broken limb and the patient was
doing very we'll when last heard
from.
Mr.. II. e. Dickson has received
his commission as postmaster here
and took charge Monday. Mr.. Os-
car Harris is his assistant.
Mrs. G. w. Gignilliat returned
last Saturday evening from visit
of several days to her sister near
Charlotte.
Cotton continues to come in pretty
lively, Notwithstanding the decline in
price. Seneca still keeps little
ahead of Grccnvillc and Anderson
in the price she pays for the staple,
We had heavy frosts, both this
morning and yesterday. Some par
ties report ice both mornings. There
is difference of opinion as to the
amount of damage done. Some
claim that the cotton is benefited,
while others say that there will be
considerable loss on the cotton crop.
SENECA, S. c., October 8, 1885,
Rev. w. II. Kings residence caught
fire this morning and burned down.
Most of the furniture was saved.
Mr.. w. II. Coles house caught from
Mr.. Kings and was burned. Coles
shop was saved by hard work. If
the shop had caught Mr.. f.. p,
Earlc's house would have gone too
Everybody, black and white, worked
hcroically. I am informed that there
was no insurance on either house
Kings loss is about $1,000; Coles
about 5000. Rats and matches arc
thought to have caused the fire.
