night after the lecture of Henry NJ.
Stanley, the great African explorer,
the band played "God Bless the
Prince of Wales" and as soon as the
familiar air was heard the audience

almost drowned the music of the
band. He is also being denounced
by the religious denominations OF
England for the part he played in
the Baccarat scandal.

Summerton News.

SUNMERroS, June 15.-The crops
in this community are looking very
well but are at least two weeks behind
last years. There las been plenty
of rain, and for some of our farmers
a little too much as to the size OF
the grass.
Thursday, the II inst, was a day
long to be remembered by the Sum-
mertonians. At about half past
five an unusal stir might have been
seen in and around the ". & S.
railroad Office. The agent Of the
W. & S. road was at his desk with
a look of expectancy on his face,
which was turned into a happy smile
on the first party coming in and call
ing for ten tickets to Jordan. Prompt
ly at 6 o'clock the whistle sounded
and about forty-fve took their seats
bound for Jordan. Among the crowd
was the venerable soliciting agent OF
the G. S. & n. railroad (Mr. j. J. R.)
This gentleman although a little
dudish, wearing his hair parted in
the middle, is I believe a general
fayorite and added no little to the
amusement of the crowd. He is
certainly a fine singer and any one
who saw him walking up and down
the aisle and joining in with the
young ladies in their songs will
not soon forget. At Benbows twelve
or fifteen ladies and gentlemen got
on. At Davis we waited fifteen min
utes By the way they say at Davis
that it is the garden spot of Claren-
don. Well, / declare, how many
gardenspots there must be in Claren-
don!
The academy at Jordan is hand
some building and credit to the
community. A very entertaining
program was provided which for two
hours or more amused and entertain
ed the large and appreciative audi
ence. The scholars evinced careful
training, creditably performing the
duties assigned them. We congrat-
ulate Prof. Knight on the success
of his entertainment.
The trip home was as pleasant as
could be. On arriving in Summer
ton three cheers were given to Con-
ductor ". W. Suits for his untiring
efforts to make the trip pleasant one.
Jordan is not as hard road to travel
as the old song would have it.
On last Monday night Jimmie
James, a colored boy about Is years
old, appropriated to his own use
two shoes from the samples of q
drummer for the house of McGhan,
Brown, & Evans. On the next day
he was trying to exchange them with
one of our clerks, who knowing Of the
theft identified the shoes. The boy
on being questioned owned taking
the shoes. After consulting with
the boy as to his preference to go to
jail or to take trouncing and leave
the village he preferred the latter
So the boys tied him up and Mr.
Jimmie James hasn't been seen on
the streets since.
There has been several petty thefts
from the stores in the last six months.
It is hoped this will place a check
on this business.

who graduated at the Sumter insti'

STRANGE BUT TRUE.
Col. I. w. AYery's Remarkable Statement.

This gentleman was treated for years by
eminent specialists, and the Brown-Sequard
remedy was tried. He states he had spent
upwards of seven thousand dollars with the
most eminent physicians, and otherwise,
but without the least benefit He bade his
old comrades in arms an affectionate fare
we'll more than year ago, and yet, here is
what he writes under fresh date. Could
anything be more wonderful?

SAN SALVADOR AND HONDURAS,

CITY OF MEXICo, April 27-It is an
nounced that the governments OF San Sal
vador and Honduras have arranged r
treaty of neutrality between the two coun-
tries. The treaty provides that in case
difficulties arise between San Salvador and
Honduras they will be subjected TO arbi-
trstion, and in the event OF war between
either OF the powers and another power,
each of the countries named will admit
the others products free OF duty The
projected inter-oceanic railway of Hon
duras will be accessible TO san Salvador in
case of war, and San Salvador will build
canal from Puerto Union TO the main line.
and this canal will be free TO Honduras
under like circumstances
T. is very plain to be seen that the object
of San Salvador in effecting this treaty is
TO isolate Guatemala in the event of war
between these two countries. According
TO advices from san Salvador. such a con-
fiict is not far distant. while dispatches
from Guatemala say that peace is impos-
slble III Central America on account of the
hatred OF the Salvadorians fer the Guate-
malans.

ENGI AND AND ITGIN

LONDON. April q. - Notwithstanding
denials there is reason to believe the re-
port OF an Italo-British alliance present or
prospective, and the subject is causing
considerable uneasiness among those who
wish to see Great Britain keep out of Eu-
ropeans complications. 1t is stated on au-
thority generally accurate that England
has been asked to promise to protect Italy
from hostile approach by sea, Italy in turn
placing her fleet at the disposal of Great
Britain. The only apparent reason for such
an arrangement is the fact that in the
event of war, a French squadron might
descend upon the Italian coast and cap
ture Rome and Naples, after defeating the
Italian feet, which, according to past ex-
perience, would not be difficult task
Lord Salisbury has ali along shown dis
position to entangle Great Britain in the
triple alliance. and it is the common view,
both in London and Berlin, that without
the British fleet to oppose them, the French
would be masters OF the Mediterranean.

DESTROYED BY TORPEDOEs.
Two Ironclads Of the Ohilian Insurgents
Sent to the Bottom.

PARIS, April 27.-Advices received here
from Chilli, via Buenos Ayres, state that
during the battle at Caldera five torpedoes
were charged at the Chilian insurgents
war vessels, sinking the monitor Huascar,
as well as the Blanco Encalada Presi-
dent Balmaceda's feet then returned to
Valparaiso, without having sustained
any damage. The ship Florence has gone
over to the insurgents. President Balma-
ceda is in dread of being poisoned. He
will not partake of any food which has not
been preDared by his mother.
NEW YORK, April 27.-The Chilian lega-
tion in Washington received today the
following telegram:
THE First naval division of the govern
ment Of Chilli, on the morning of the 22d
of April, in the port of Cadera, attacked
the ironclads Blanca Encalada and Huas-
car, and destroyed them both by the use of
Whitehead torpedoes thrown at the first
moment. The government vessels Amir
ante Lynch and Condell received no dam
age whatever, and are preparing to attack
the rest of the rebel squadron"
The house of Flint & Co., received the
following cablegram from Santiago:
ION the morning of April D. the gov

Lynch and Almirante .Condell, command
ed by Capts. Moraga and Fuerentes, at
tackled in the bay of Caldera, the iron
clads, Blanco and Huascsr, of the in
surgents' squadron, and destroyed them
with Whitehead torpedoes. The Blanco
was the flag ship of Capt. Monte, chief of
the insurgents squadron. The govern
ment vessels received no damage whatever
and have returned to Valparaiso, where
they are preparing for another trip to de-
stroy the remaining vessels of the revolt
ing squadron. This is believed to be the
death blow to the rebellion, and it is be-
Geved that the revolution will be term-
mated in fifteen days, as the torpedo
cruisers. Lynch and Congdell, have greater
speed by at least ten miles an hour, than
the vessels that still remain in the hands
