A Word to the Jury Commissioners. Don't forget to draw your Juries-not more than fifteen nor less than seven days before the next session o? Court, which, you will bear .in mind-, is on the first Monday in June. " A word to the wise is sufficient" tST Jesse Jones, of this town, has been appointed by Gov.

From Longmiers, Rehoboth and Cold Spring Post Offices we hear frequent and loud complaints about the irregularities in the arrival of their papers audletters, and hope the accommodating P^rcMas ter at Hamburg will assist us in remedy ing the evil complained of, and find out if possible where the fault lies. An Office not Worth the Seeking. Since the reduction of the fees of the Sheriff's office, by our Legislators at their last session, the office is worth lit erally nothing. Hearing Sheriff Wall complain very earnestly concerning the reduction of tho fees of the officers of Court, we made enquiry concerning his receipts for the month of April, and after an examination, he reports his entire income for the month by way of fees, service of writs, dre, at only $10 08. And says " It's a blasted shame for a set of legislators to exact six hundred dollars a year for their own services,-which could have been as well rendered in half the time, and at half the pay required,-and then to pretend that they arc protecting the interests of the people by reducing the already miserable pittance allowed certain officers. These legislators strain at, allowing a dime to-: tb ose who are justly due it, yeti they don't: hesitate on any and all occasions to line their own pockets at the expense of the tax-payers, regardless of their much* -vaunted pru dential considerations in behalf of thc people when the dimes fall to some one else" And Sheriff Wall is right While they were reducing fee? and wages, why did they not act consistently and reduce the salaries and fees' of all the State and County officer, the legislator* in cluded? Wo hopie tb see' this fee and salary re ducing business remedied, or'at any rate made more equal, at the next session of the Legislature. . The Augusta Hotel. See the card of Mr. Patrick May, in auother column. Mr. May is the cordial, energetic and gentlemanly proprietor of the Augusta Hotel. . Since the setting in of the new year, Mr. May has overhauled the old Augusta in a very thorough manner ; and now, as regards eating, or drinking, orsleeping, or sitting, orloung- ? lng, or desirable locality, or what not, tho wayfaring man cati find no better place than May's Augusta Hotel. Off fur the Lava Beds ! A "grapevine'' telegram from Presi dent Grant to Capt. E. E Jefferson, the wide-searching and far-reaching Agent of the Piedmont & Arlington Lifo Insu rance Company, orders ?hc latter to go forthwith to the Lava Beds, and seek out and locate Capt Jack and the Modocs. Capt. Jefferson passed through our town a day or two ago, cn route tor tho North West, we are informed, prepared not on ly with Piedmont ?fc Arlington blanks, but also with tomahawks, wampums, war-paint and feathors-so tbat when penco shall bo established, ho may go In and do as Rome does. This order gives evidence that Mr. Grar.c^s mind is grow ing more lu II ii nous; for if-a Life Insu rance Agent-and such aon?as oWfr?erid, Jefferson!-can't lind Capt Jack, then all further search is profoundly useless. ?gf Read " Paul Pry, Secretary;'? on fburfh page ; and if you can pry out what he la driving at, you will have accom plished more than we have been'able to do.

Miles Yeldell, accused of stealing the tooney from Postmaster Tillman, wai carried off on Monday last, under guard, to Charleston, to be tried before the U. S.

They have been liberally assisted by the whites; and have received a set of bran new in struments.

Hope he will be able to keep his market up "all summer." Mr. Whitfield's School. With much pleasure we call the atten tion of the public to the card of Mr. Whitfield, in another column. This younjr gentleman came among us three months back, unknown and unheralded -but even then with good manners and cultivated mind to' recommend him Within these three mohths, Mr. Whit-? held has proved himself emphatically worthy not only of the respect but also of the support of our community. His industry, his perseverance, his capacity, all recommend him highly; and if our people have the realizing 3ense of the importance of a good Male School which they ought to have, they will not let him depart from among them for the want of ( liberal patronage. A Reliable Patent Medicine. Dr. Simmons' Liver Regulator, of all thc patent uostrums of the day, we con sider strictly reliable, and essentially valuable as a remedy for diseases arising from derangement of the Liver. We are sustained in this opinion by hun dreds of people in this immediate viciui t3' who have for years tested its superior tucdicinal qualities for Dyspepsia, Head aches, Diseases of the Skin, Impurity of j thc Blood, Asthma, Female Affections, and Bilious Diseases generally. Their continued use of this medicine, and the rapidity with which it sells, speaks vol umes in its behalf as to its reliability aud popularity. But our reasons for this emphatic endorsement of Simmons' Liver Regulator, does not aris? from any mi raculous cure it has effected ou us, or any of our corps, but simply because we have had considerable business transac tions with the manufacturers of the Regu lator, Messrs. J. H. Zeilin & Co.,-of | Macon, Ga., and of Philadelphia, Pa., for a number of years, and have always found them liberal and reliable gentle men ; and if a man is reliable in bis pe cuniary- transactions, he will very likely be equally reliable in the manufacture and preparation of any medicine he may offer for sale. Therefore we commend the Regulator, and would advise the afflicted ?who have not given it a trial to , do so at once. Tax Payera Resisting the Collection pf j Taxes. ' ?Tbe citizens of Iberia parish, La., or '.gan'ized a tqx resisting association on the 4th. The meeting was very enthusiastic and was addressed by several members Of tho bar, who offered their services free of charge. Resolutions were adopt ed endorsing Governor McEnery and repudiating Kellogg and urging resist ance to the usurper's collection 6f taxes. One hundred Metropolitans, with one piece of artillery, have gone to St. Mar tinsville, St. Martin parish, to install ''Kellogg's officers. Trouble is appre hended. The Greatest Newspaper In the World. The Herald, Qf May 2d, contains let tors from Louise Muelbach and Auer bach, printed in German, grving full de scriptions of ?the opening of the Vienna Exposition on the day previous. In ad dition to these German contributions, it publishes twp others-one from Edward Yates and the other from John Russell Young. This is the greatest stroke cf | enterprise in journalism ever accom plished, and the Herald ls the greatest newspaper in the world. ?Sr The Abbeville Press & Banner of the 1st inst, says : " It gives us much pleasure to transfer from a late number of tue South Caroli nian, the following handsome compli ment to a hightoned gentleman, whose wife-tho only daughter of the late Chancellor Wardlaw, and the niece of | onr honored ami distinguished towns man Judge D. L.

Parker, who still flaunts around j town with his fancy team as grandly as if , he were still treasurer and issuing his I i thousands of "bonds" a day, evinces a i little shame nevertheless. He has chang ed the name of his sub-treasury froni Par ker's Hall to Parker's Block. The idea ?f. | calling a single building a block ! but he can't escape, for the buildmgwill undoubt edly go down to posterity as Parker's Haul < There has been nothing settled npon be* . tween the committee of citizens and Sen ator Sprague in rejatioa to the sale of the canal. Mr. Sprague has-left for th?'Noit?. He would make no abatement of his prioe of $300,000. -The ctnimrttee- of eiii- j zens meet this morning to determine what they will do about it. It is the common opinion that Mr. Sprague has acted very ? shabbily, and he does not stand high now in the good graces of the people of Cb-j lumbla. The State Treasury is st^UinA muddle. All that outsiders know cert^inl^ is tba$ there is said .to be no money^n^' ^hfi true cause of this failure of funds so early in the year will probably not be satisfac torily known until the legislature jneets, if then. Cardozo's friends say that the county treasurers are behind, and the ar rests which were made some time> back gave some coloring of truth to the apology. A prominent State official told me to day that he was beginning seriousiy to fear that Caniozo had sadly mismanaged the funds, and t&attbe,'"de\]lwoii?d'brfo ' pay" before the year ended. Messrs. Hope & Gyles, who have been supplying th? Asylum with provisions for the past ttrree or four months, and whose bill amounts to eleven or twelve thousand'dollars, have not been able to get a dollar yet. Messrs. Agnew & Son have sued the regents of the Asylum for the balance of their biil of ] last year, and so it goes, I have heard no complaints about the Penitentiary as yet. Tile Governor is pardoning all that he can, and some that he should'nt, of the convicts! probably with an eye to the economy which the scarcity of money nec essitates. Dennis, however, may be relied upon to get his share as long as there il a dollar in the treasury. The enemies of Cardozo, on the other hand, say that the arrests were all for ef fect, and intended to divert ceasure from iii proper object, and that the money has been collected and squandered. The truth, as usual, will probably be found between these extremes. A good deal of money is nc- doubt still due the treasury, and a good deal has been allowed to slip from it im properly and unwisely. # There is two years' interest upon the bonds of the State m arrears, and even if J th-j debt be reduced by discarding the fraudulent bonds to $9,000,000 the . enor me us sum of $1,120,000 would have to be raised to pay the interest, and this would necessitate a tax of eight mills. R. K. Scott has had his "little feelings" hurt too since he has been among the outs. He tells the story on himself. . Says the mortified and disgusted doctor: It was jusi, after the inauguration of Moses, when one day I was coming out of the State house feeling sad and melancholy, with not a fpiend in the world scarcely that I felt I could rely upon. Outside the door I noticed a group of niggers chatting to gether, and as I passed they looked at me in an odd sort of way, as if undetermined whether to speak to me or not. Finally one of them came forward extending his. hand', and said very cordially liow'dye do Governor; how are you to-day? I shook hands with him and walked In, when I heard one of his comrades say to him, " Who dot you call Gubner ? dat no Gub ner ; he nuttin but ex Gubner; he can't do you no good now ; what de debbil you shake hands wid him fur? And until I got clean out of sight I could hear the ungrateful scoundrel repeating his words louder arid louder every time, evidently for my gratification. 1' never, says the' doleful ex-Governor, saw the base ingrati tude of the nigger so plainly exemplified but once before in my life, and that was when old John Brown was hung. There was a large crowd of niggers to see the hangrg, probably two or three thousand, all of whom see ded to enjoy the sight. Just as the trap-door fell, and poor old John was dangling at the end of the rope, an ungrateful nigger scamp yelled out: '. Kick, you darned old gray-headed scoun drel you. We'll show you how to come down here and teef gentlemen's property." Qui VIVE. psr Dr. J. W. Huckabee, the well known Druggist of Augusta, Ga., whose recent severe bereavement in the loss ol a cherished wife we noticed in our last issue, (says the. Abbeville Press ct Ban ner, of the 1st.,) has been on a visit to relative? here and at Lowndcsville, aud took the train at Abbeville on his returu to the city on yesterday. His friends will sympathize with him in his great affliction. tST Both the planting kings, Col. Lockett and Col. Jordan, of Dougherty, Ga, have planted an abundance of corn, as well as of cotton, and it was a real beautiful sight, says the Albany News, to witness the expensive and garden like fields, so neatly worked and so ar tistically laid off. Both crops look prom ising, and geneval prospects cheering. The death of General Can by re d?ces the list of brigadier-generals on the army register from seven to the limit of six established by a recent act of J Congress, and hence there is no vacancy created. ?&~It has been suggested (says the Anderson Intelligencer) that the corpora tors of the Anderson, Aiken, Port Royal and Charleston Railroad Company, num bering ono hundred and thirty five able bodied citizens, go to work upon the pro posed road and push it forward to com pletion. Mr. Aaren Smith, qf Madison County, Ga., died some days since, from a little briar being run into his hand, .which so inflamed tho whole limb that death ensued. Mr. Smith was about seventy years old, and up to the timo of | the accident that caused his death, was a halo hearty man. p3f Augusta Factory and Granitoville Manufacturing Company goods have been reduced In price.
