SUMTER, S. C, 

 The Oldest Paper and the Largest Circula- 

 tion in this section of the State. 



The W'atchm m and Southron is composed of the joint subscription and in- 

 fluence of the Sumter Watchman and the True Southron, the two having been 

 consolidated by us in August, 1881. These papers were the oldest and most in- 

 fluential in Sumter, the former having been t stablished in 1860, and the laiter 

 in 1866. Before the consolidation tliey were both alive and active, and doing a 

 good business. 



The combination of the two has given to our sub.scribers a first-class journal, 

 and offers to our advertisi:'g patrons a better means of addressing the public 

 than can be provided by any other paper in this sec.ion. 



Subscription $3 a year in advance. Contract advertisers re- 

 quested to write for rates for time and space desired.
