attached to him because he loved mother SO
dearly. He had been conflIed 70 the hospital

the day before Christmas at o'clock. He
passed away In q peaceful sleep and apparent

Speaking OF Immigrants, recalls TO mind

AbbeviIle's Prosperity.

AS arule the Abbeville business men have
little reason to complain at their customers
and are not grievousy hurt by the hard
times, except from the fact that they laid In
large stocks Of goods and their profits have
not been as good as they might have wished.
But all are going ahead looking hopefully for
better times in the future. Some have made
fairly good profits on the years work, while
few, II any, have suffered loss.
The banks have been prosperous, and at the
recent meeting OF the tockholders, these In
stitutions were found TO be In . prosperous
condition.
Both banks have been managed In most
satisfactory manner. They have done busi-
ness In q regular and fair way. Nobody has
been squeezed" but the profits have been
good. Like sensible and business-like men,
however, they have in a great measure ceased
to manage their banks for the mere fun Of 1t
They now charge better rate OF discount,
and as result the shareholders realize good
profit, and the stock OF each bank is held in
high esteem.
< Among the business men the stock dealers
have had perhaps the hardest time, but their
care In requiring good security, has saved
them harmless In majority OF instances. By
the shrinkage in the value Of horses and
mules the interests OF all classes of citizens
have been affected
As q rule those who hold mortgages of stock
are not foreclosing them. The people of Alb
beville foreclose fewer mortgages Of any kind
than any people in South Carolina. Creditors
are more lenient, and debtors, as rule, have
not borrowed money from foreign loan com.
panies. At best Q mortgage is dangerous
thing, but when q stranger holds mortgage
ruin often comes, where, If the debt had been
due TO neighbor. Indulgence or better terms
might be had.

To the Farmers OF Abbevlle County:
Al q meeting of the County Alliance on

a com mittee to issue an address 10 the farm

Abbeville on Tuesday. 22d, inst at II O'Clock
to discuss such measures as Will best advance
our agricultural Interest.
No argument Is needed TO convince any one
of the necessity Of changing our present
mode of farming.
It is claimed that the exclusive attention
given 10 the production OF cotton, and the e1-
fravagant use OF commercial fertilizers, are,
to a great extent, responsible for the anon.

snooushiner. Moore neglected to disarm his
prisoner. When coming to Walhalla at IA
yorable moment the prisoner fired on Moore,
and Moore returned the fire, and in few miu-

solid as the Rocks OF Gibraltar.

While Abbeville has no millionaires or
"blowhards." yet tho mercantile firms, as far
as known, are on solid basis. We haven't
had q failure in more than two years, and no
town Of its size can boast OF merchants who
are on better or more firm foundation.
They stand we'll in the commercial world, and
their money and credit are equal to all the
emergencies.
So when the time comes that you need sup
plies ofany kind, bring in your securities and
get what you want.

whatever they want, and then In turn require
safe guarantees before they will let ont big
amounts on credit.

The County Supervisor.

The County Supervisor, Captain John
Lyon, went into Office on the first of January.
He succeeded to the trust and the duties here
tofore so we'll and so faithfully discharged
: by the retiring County Commissioners.
At the end OF the fiscal year. which is the
first day OF November, the old County Com
missioners had their settlement and made
clean balance Sheet
The new law required them to hold over un-
til the Supervisor should be Installed into Of

the Commissioners had much work to do.
During November and December the large
amount Of work which they contracted for,
necessarily cost considerable SUM Of money,
which is estimated, in the aggregate TO
amount to 81, 1850, itemized as follows:

The law requires the appointment Of a clerR

should come out of the ynblic treasury. II
would be about as equitable to charge the
