Rotatioi of Ju1ges, The act to carry into effect the fourteenth secti",n of article 4 of the Stat constitutionh, rguiring Circuit Judges to interchange circuits, is likely to raise much doubt in qucs tions of practice. It provides fur a regular rotation of Judges in holding the courts of the variuus circuits, so that no Judge shall hold court in the same circuit any two years in succes sion, and it is based on a requiremcut in the constitution that "Judges of the Circuit Court shall interchange circuits with each other in such man ner as may be determined by law." The act does not seem to go as far as the constitution does, for it only pro vides for an assignment of the Circuit Judges to hold the courts of the va rious circuits, and it seems that the act limits the assignment to the reg ular terms of court. To "interchange circuits" would imply an interchange not only of the duty of holding court, but an inter change of all the duties of the Judges in their circuit. But as they can only interchaue "in such manner as may be determined by law," this part of the constitution must be inopera tive, except so far as the Legislature may determine "the manner" of its operation. The second section of the act, after prescribing the manner of notifying the Judges of their assignment, con cludes in these words: "And they shall proceed to hold the terms of the courts in the circuits to which they are respectfully assigned at the times appointed by law for the various Cir cuit Courts therein to convene." Whose is the duty- and the power to hold special ternis when they are needed in any county ? Section 13, article 4 of the constitution says : "The State shall be divided into con venient circuits, and for each circuit a Judge shall be elected," &c. Sec tion 2S of the code says : "The sev eral Circuit Judges shall have, power to hold special sessions within their respectice circuits." Again, who has the power and whose duty is it to attend to all that judicial business which is done at chambers and in vacation ? In the matter of injunctions, the 241st sec tion of the code provides that an "or der of injunction may be made by the Circuit Court in which the action is brought or by a Judge thereof, and in the absence from the cireuit, or ina bility, from any cause, of a Judge thereof. by a Judge of any other cir cuit, or a Justice of the Supreme Court." Who is the Judge of the circuit ? the Judge elected for that circuit or the Judge assigned to hold th'e courts of that circuit ? In whose sphere does the granting of the great writ of habeas corpus come, and the writs of prohibition and mandamus, and the hearing of those numerous motions out of court that' form so large and essential a part of the ad have been provided for by the Legis lature so as to leave as little doubt as possible. There are other sections of statute law which tend to complicate the mat ter besides the ones we have cited. The instances given show the neces sity for a complete and general revis ion of oui- statutes, and the simplifica tion of the numerous laws relating to the same subject, which have grown into conflicting parts by constant tin k-ering in the special branches. A few more years of desultory legisla tion, and we will have a system at once incomnprehensible and unmanage able.-CGolumbia Register. SOUTH CAROLINA MONUMENT As-. socIAio.-The Board of Directors of the South Carolina Monument As sociation beg leave to announce to the public that the monument 'is finished and will be erected as soon as the amount guaranteed to the architects can be obtained. They beg their friends to make known the fact that it is not a county but a State monu ment, erected by the women of South Carolina, and will bear an inscription to that effect. Penny readings estab lished by some enterprising friend monthly in each county town would, by the accumulation of small sumis, relieve the association of all emubar rassment. Wbcn the work is comn pleted, a statement will be made of receipts from each county.

P The Mails. cc The up-country is very unfortu- ro natL as regards the mails. Take fo Newberry, for instance. Columbia is at only forty-seven miles from here, and cc yet we do not get her daily papers lt till 12 o'clock. Charleston is about he ten hours' distance by rail from us, th and we get her mail the next day flr after it leaves there. The dailies ofi we get more than thirty-six hours tlb after they are printed. People m like to get their mail as early as bi possible,- and railroad companies Va should do what they can to accom fo modate the public. .-a We can form some idea of the iimpement~ me coul be made i in the running of the trains from R the Excursion .Train that passed T ap the r~oad Monday. Leaving fo Chaleston at 6 A. M., just in time wi to get the daily papers, it reached gc Newberry at 3 P. M. of the same .cc day, and Greenville at 9 P. M. If the regular train were run on ar that schedule it would be a great N accommodation to the whole up- pl country. As it is now we have to S( wait half a day for the Columbia ce and a day and a half for the Char- 0 leston mail. - fc, * Editorial Review. . -The Oconee Sheriff hasn't a sin- p: gle boarder.

It is too true, that when the ignorant and selfish rule, the people suffer intolerably. s The receding waves of war, in sweep- b ing the millions of your money away, left you stranded, bleeding, helpless. b Pride and envy were two of the many potential causes of the late war.

The solitary regret I expe rienced was occasioned by your absence, s for although I am aware that you do not now shake a foot, yet it would have f completed my pleasure to have had a seat alongside you, and to have heard s your well-timed remarks and footing up ~ as you caught the ''manners living as r they rise." Of course, you are aware that I am referring to the "Anniversary e Ball" of the "Odd Fellows" which took place on the 13th instant, and althought -owing to your absence-I determined ~ s giving you an account of the move ments on that occasion, yet I know that ~ my "grey goose quill" will fail to dot justice, and is but a poor substitute for your facile and graceful pen. It was t a night well to remember. The rain poured down in incessant torrents, andv while withont all was dark, dull and dreary, yet once within the hall, thei storm was forgotten, no clouds there appeared, for all wore wreathed smiles,1 and many a happy fellow basked in their sunshine. The Ball was a com plete success, and the Committee of Arrangements can be wvell satisfied that their efforts met the "well done" of all who were present. The "Hall" and the large room over the storehouse of our genial friend Mike, were both thrown open to the crowd in attendance, and while some preferred to glide through the mazy dance, "in soft Lydian measures," others more on social conversc .bent, assembled in the upper Hall, to speak. of the passing events of the day andl to listen to the many "on dits" afloat; and no doubt many an oar was vexed with a thrice told talc. It was a lovely sight, Messrs. Editors, to look in at that ball-room, and thoughi bowed dowvn by the weight of year's, and 1 can only remember that sneh thingswere,. in the dlays whcn I was young, vet when r I saw the loveliness and beauty of Newberry's daughters there assembled, ( my heart began to thump. I felt some of the old pulses beating, and I caught j myself propounding the query, What a chance would such an old reprobate e have? I beeame almost entranced wvith the bewitching beauty of a certain dear little sprite, and thought if I could book her, I would risk the chance for the t balance of my days. Would be willinge to leave "Odd Fellows' Hall" and fiy with her to a "Lodge" in some vast wil- s~ derness. The illusion, however, was b soon dispelled, for as I gazed into the C eyes of this dear gazelle, and felt the glamour stealing over me, a six-footer, y broad-shouldered fellow, approached v her, and by certain signs (don't know i if they belonged to, or wvere in order,) and other unmistakable motions, soonb onvinced me that if 'Barkis was willin',' I she would not be, and that I was bark- hi ing uip the wvrong tree. . 0 It would be invidious-where all looked so well and lovely-to say what o lady bore awaiy the palm. Neverthe- tI less, I had an opinion of my own-"but here her hamne or what her name I dinna care to tell." because I am uin- w ,illing to stand the storms and peltings n f all the others.

Tewbcrry have I seen gentlemen better ressed. I had not the slightest idea bat Tyrant Fashion had made it in umbent for them all to don dress coats. Vere they made, or improvised for the ccasion, or were they hanging over rom the Lenten season? The latter I urmise, for on the morning after the all I heard a chorus of voices singing. When the swallows homeward fly." The music was obtained from Colum ia, and you can judge of its sweet notes 7hen I inform you the dancing was ept up until half-past three o'clock, nd my belief is that some of them iould have kept the dancing on until ow, if the musicians had been willing play. The refreshments were of the very est and in great abundance-of this on will be satisfied when I tell you that IcKenzie, of Columbia, whose reputa ion as a caterer is established from one nd of the State to the other, furnished be ice cream and cake. The young people of our community hould be very grateful to the commit e of arrangements, who, by their,un earied efforts, succeeded in giving so leasant an evening; and our young aen should return their heartfelt thanks a the ladies who, in spite of wind and veather, turned out in such large num ier, and who by their buoyancy of pirits, made us all forgetful of the eiting storm which was raging out loors. I sincerely hope that before long we aay have just such aLother Ball, and at "we be there to see? OLD BACH. In Christo, in Pace. Lucy WILSON RAMAGE, second daughter f Burr J., and Sarah Ann Ramage, born ay, 1850, fell asleep through Jesus on the iorning of the 7th of May, 1877, in the 27th car of her earthly life. Leaves hiave their time to fall, Lnd flowers to wither at the north wind's breath, Lnd stars to set-but all, 'hon hast all seasons for thine own, Oh! Death." We need no song of poesy to remind us of his solemn fact, mournfully illustrated in lie departure of this gentle maid; and yet re ought not to lament that she has com leted her earthly pilgrimage, for it is better rith her now than ever before. She was one f nature's retiring opes; she bore for many, iany years the burden and the cross of suf ring, and meekly bore them; so meekly nd uncomplainingly, that those without the ircle of her family, and a few intimate riends, did not even know she walked be eath their heavy pressure at all; she was ven more mindful of the happiness and wel are of others than'of her own, and crystal zed into beautiful yet modest actions the ommandment of her Saviour, whom she )ved, and whom humbly and rejoicingly he served. She pleased not herself, but ought the good of those around, and filled er woman's sphere and filled it well. Her dmily, her church; we all, her friends, have uffered a most grievous loss. Yet it is rrong, it is selfish bitterly to lament and hed disconsolate tears. The earthly life has nly blossomed into the fullness of that glo ous one in which there is neither sorrow, or cross-bearing, nor pain, and she has ntered into her eternal home. In the bridal arment of salvation, and with her brows circed wih the unfading amaranthine rown, she rejoices with joy unspeakable in be presence of her Lord. Only a little less an two months before her own departure lie went, with others to the sanctuary, to ommit to her quiet slumber another of the aviour's gathered ones, and as she returned a her earthly home, remarked with sweet u aility and deep emotions of gratitude: "How hankful, how glad I am that I am prepared a die; that I am ready to depart whenever alled, and have only now quietly to await e summons and obey it wheneyerit comes." hey who can say this, and whose lives attest hat their utterance is more than .empty ords are better off when taken hence than hose who remain. "The day of their death s better than the day of their birth." So it s with this one. Beneath the shadow of the arest trees in the quiet country graveyard ier body rests, sleeping until the resurrection orn; while her spirit has soared away into e presence of God. 'Weep not for her, that she has reached be fore us, Thea safe warm shelter of her long loved home; Veep not for her-she may be bending o'er us, In quiet wonder when we too shall come. 'eep not for her-think how she may be kneeling, Gazing enraptured on her Saviour's face; loving, humble smile but half reveatling, The perfect peace she feels in that best place." * * * Newberry, June 14th, 1877. .7Tew V .T?isceulaneous. "A CA RD." In the last issue of the HERALD there ~ppeared a card signed Thomas J. Lips omb, that forces me to appear in a ewspaper war, which is more to be readed than a two hundred pound nan with pistol and knife. The correspondence explains itself, nd I have no cause to be'ashamed of ny share in it. The statement of the bull-dozing olonel, about the little difficulty which eurred after the correspondence, is o incomplete, that it seems necessary, or the information of parties who did ot see it, to make it a little more omplete. As to my waylaying him, and taking im unprepared, that is disproved by be number of weapons pe carried. The import of the words he imputes a me is correct, and, "the sentiments xpressed by me are still entertained." 'he Colonel says, "My reply was a ~roke with a cowhide, upon which a ugle ensued. We were then separated I persons and further fighting prer-ent 1l." The truth is that he raised his rm to strike. I seized him and threw im from the sidewalk into the street, -. tling on him, during which time the rhip fell out of his hand. While ly 2g on th]e ground, the Colonel drew knife or dagger, which he had no pportunity to use, as I held his arm y the wvrist.; while holding him down struck him twice in the face. As to is having denounced me in unmeasured rms, that was returned in kind. Any ne interested in the matter can get a tore complete statement from some ne of the numerous crowd which ga ~ered during the little difficulty. In conclusion let me distinctly state, iat I do not think there is anything hich the Colonel could either say or 'rite which would call for any further atice from me, and if he is satisfied, his communication seems to imply, us card ends the matter so far I am >ncerned.
