A Greenwood man contributes this story to current smallpox literature. In 1867 his family lived in Edgefield district. A stray cat came to his house broken out with pustules, and in a short while his family took smallnrx-r Ho iQ euro the eat brought them O the disease, as they had no other opportunity to contract it. Sustains Judge Benet. In its dual report to the court last Saturday, the Spartanburg grand jury incorporated the following: "We most heartily commend the action of your honor in refusing a change of venue in the Newbold case, aud we condemn unqualifiedly the malevolent aud libelous headliues that appeared in the Charleston News and Courier of Tuesday, the 11th iustant, over an article in regard to the said case." Lee's Birthday. Columbia Register: Wednesday is Lee's birthday and is a holiday iu this state. As a consequence the legislature will uot be in session on that day. The members will visit the South Carolina college at the invitation of the students aud will be in attendance upon the exercises of presenting the Daughter of the Confederacy medal to the successful essayist. They will also attend a receptiou tendered by President and Mrs. Woodward, at which will be present members of Camp Hampton, the Sons of Veteraus and prominent citizens. Thirty Partridgeft In Thirty Day*. Ou a wager, Charles Carraux, a young Greenville sport, last Saturday, completed the task of eatiug 30 partridges in 30 days?one partridge each day. He said he experienced unpleasant sensations on the 16th day aud again ou the 26th day ; but otherwise got along very nicely. The News '* ^ r__ * i says IDis is me nrsi unie me ieai una ever been accomplished. A young Chicago sport, who made the attempt a few years ago, managed to get away with 28 partridges; but quit at that and turned his toes to the ruots of the daisies. Vaccinated Iti the Mouth. Honea Path Chronicle : A Negro iu Greenville was vaccinated in a very peculiar way a few days ago. One of the physicians of that city had vaccinated some one and threw the point away, little dreamiug that it would be brought into service again. A certain energetic colored citizeu picked the point up and used it for several days as a toothpick. In a short time his lips and gums began to pain him and swell up, and it soon became apparent that the poor man had unthoughtedly vaccinated himself by using the point as a toothpick. At last accounts his lips, naturally large, were swollen out of proportion and causing hira much pain. Trial of Newbold. The case of W. H. Newbold, for the murder of J. Henry Turner, was called for trial in Spartanburg on Monday. The attorney for the defence made a motion for a continuance on the ground of absence of certain material witnesses, including Senator Tillman, who could not be arrested because of his attendance ou congress. The prosecution offered to admit that the witnesses would swear as stated, provided their statements were admissible, and Judge Benet refused to grant the motion for a continuance. The trial was set lor 1uesaay moruiug. auw ney General Barber, G. Duncan Bellinger, J. K. Henry, W. A. Neal, J. C. Wilborn and D. E. Finley, Esq., are in Spartanburg to testify as to Newbold's character. Sale of a Newspaper. The Columbia Register was sold at pubiic auction last Friday under foreclosure of a chattel mortgage held by Henry Lindeumeyer & Sons, of New York. The only bid made was one of $5,000 by Wm. Siuart, a New York lawyer, who is said to be the representative of Win. Hatfield, an advertising agent of the same city. The property was knocked down at the price mentioned. Whether or not Hatfield has auy connection with the Lindenmeyers has not satisfactorily developed. The Register announces that its publication will be continued, as heretofore, and The State talks as though the question as to whether or not publication will be continued is a very uncertain one. According to the Columbia State, during the last seven years, The Register has been run at an aggregate loss of about $70,500. Whipped By the Teacher. A sensation was caused in the city graded schools here by legal proceedings being threatened against Prof. B. L. Jones, priucipal of the city schools, for whipping Alfred Martin, a son of W. T. Martin, one of the best known - - - _ business men ot ine city, says a Columbia dispatch of last Saturday. Young MartiD persisted in whispering in his class. Professor Jones called him up and gave him a severe flogging. On reaching home, Mr. Martin examined his son and found stripes on his body as large as a man's finger. Next morning he weut before a magistrate for the purpose of taking out a warrant for Professor Jones on the charge of assault and battery. The school trustees got him to desist on the promise that the matter would be investigated. The affair caused a great deal of excitement among the patrons of the school, and the situation is still somewhat ruffled. Smallpox or Chickenpox. The controversy as to whether the Claflin cases, in Orgaugeburg, are smallpox or chickenpox, is still unsettled. Dr. Stuart, representative of the state board of health, said they were certainly smallpox; but Dr. Lowraan, president of the local board, still not being satisfied, sent for Dr. James L. Beckett, of Summerville, who is known to have dealt with dozens of cases of smallpox on the coast and elsewhere, and asked him to make a careful investigation. After looking into the matter patiently, Dr. Beckett, submitted the following signed report: "I certify that the cases of eruptive fever examined by me at the Colored Mechanical college are typical cases of varicella or chicken pox. My conclusions are based on the iollowiug symptoms : The eruptions in the eight cases examined are of successive stages of development; in those pustules where desquamation has taken place the scars left in the skin are destitute of that peculiar hardness, kernel like, of tubercular elevation which is a distinctive characteristic of smallpox. In smallpox the scab fulls oil in one solid piece ; those scabs examined are coming off in scales or flakes, the eruption in these cases being superficial, in the cellular tissue, elongated, or globate iu spots ; whereas, smallpox pustules are deep seated, with hard unyielding bases, which nodular or tubercular feeding remains a considerable time after the patient is up aud attending to his duties. The papulae smallpox are hard, resisting and movable ; in the cases referred to eruptions are soft, yield under the touch and entirely destitute of the tubercular hardness. Iu the Negro after desquamation the eruption, without a single exception, always leaves a circumscribed white spot ou the surface. In the case of Student Hicks, who is entirely recovered, the marks of the eruption are a shade darker; therefore, in my judgment, these cases examined are ehickenpox of an aggravated type." Opinion in Orangeburg is still divided ; but in order to be ou the safe side, the people are taking every precaution the same as if they were assured that the disease is smallpox. As to Beet Sugar.?The Washington correspondent of the Columbia State writes as follows with regard to the importauce of the development of the beet sugar industry in this country : Among western "growers there is but one opinion about the importauce of the beet sugar industry. They gen eraliy agree that lis development means great and permanent prosperity in the country. About two and onehalf millions of tous of foreign sugar is consumed annually in the United States at a cost of $125,000,000. Every penny of this sum can be kept at home for local investment by the production aud manufacture of beet sugar. France, Russia, Germany and Austria have been making beet sugar for 50 years or more, and have demonstrated thut its manufacture pays, and pays well. These countries have, be tweeu them, 1,245 beet sugar fact ories while in the Uuited States there are only eight. It is estimated that within the next 10 years perhaps fully 3,000, 000 tons of beet sugar will be annually used in this country. If the farmers will set about to raise the sugar beets they will experience some sure-enough prosperity. To produce this amount of sugar would require 33,000,000 tons of sugar beets, which would bring, al the lowest estimate, $130,000,000 The industry would employ 3,300,00( acres of farming land and something , like half a million men to work in the s fields. The factories for making the sugar would give employment to many more idle people and create a general demand for the stuffs that are necessary in the manufacture. MERE-MENTION. A single steamer left Savannah, Ga., one day last week, with a cargo of 18,200 bales of cotton, valued at 9624,952. This was the largest cargo that has ever been shipped from an Atlantic port. The hotel bill against Queen's county, New York, for the entertainment of the jurors who tried Martin Thorn, the murderer, amounted to 92,049, including 935G.15 for wine, 9328.40 for cigars, and 952.40 for billiards. The items designated were stricken out by the supervisors, and the bill as paid amounted to 9904. The residence of United States Minister Wood ford, in Madrid, i9 under guard to protect it from a possible attack by a mob. On account of a dangerous counterfeit that is now in circulation, Secretary Gage has issued an order calling in $100 silver certificates. The annual report of the New York chamber of commerce, shows a decline of more than $3,000,00f- in the receipts of that port last year. On December 28, 800 buildings were destroyed by a fire in Port-au-Prince, Hayti. With a Tiny Pistol.?-Mrs. Lucille Lane, youngest daughter of exSenator Joseph Blackburn, shot herself in her room in Washington last Sunday. A friend of the family has given out a story to the effect that the shooting was accidental. The lady went to a drawer for the purpose of getting a handkerchief. A small revolver?a present from the lady's father?caught in the folds of the handkerchief and dropped on the bureau with sufficient force to explode it. The bullet struck Mrs. Lane in the left breast. At last accounts it was certain that the wound was very dangerous and as to whether! or not Mrs. Lane could recover was a| matter of serious doubt.

January 15 5 saw THE .ETNA FIRE Insurance Co., OF HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT, is the strongest fire insurance company in the United States, as well as one of the most liberal in its adjustment of losses. It is a member of the South-Eastern Tariff Association and it requires no more money to secure a policy in it than it does in any of the smaller companies, besides you can always feel assured that it will be able to meet any emergency and withstand the disasters of almost any conflagration. In 1871 it paid fire losses in the Great Chicago fire to the euormous amount of $3,782,000, while there were over 100 companies crushed out of existence and awarded to their confiding policy holders in full, all of the light, heat, smoke and ashes, as consolation for their folly and in consideration of their premiums. Nine months later another conflagration was born to the ^ETNA?the Great Boston fire?and it this time paid its fire losses without quibbling, which amounted to $1,635,007, and by their reports to the insurance commissioner of Connecticut, show total assets on January 1st, of? ?13,089,089.98! True there are many other strong comEanies, (I have four others) and there are undreds of clever agents ; but there are no companies, or no agents who will appreciate your business, or even a part of it, and treat you with more consideration than I, and companies I have the honor of representing in this vicinity. I have millions for your protection, and not one cent will ever be kept from any of our patrons unjustly. When you want fire insurance on your property, consult with ine. My rates are as low as any standard insurance, and better insurance does not exist. Yours truly, L. GEO. GRIST, Resident Agent. N.

Cut Prices 011 Overcoats, Blankets and Quilts. The season for cold weather has four months yet to get in its work on shivering humanity, and while up to this time it has been more lenient than usual, the weather prophets of reputation predict "a cold old time" yet to come. And since this is the case, now, while I have afull stock of nice Overcoats, Blankets and Quilts, is the time to buy them. The Blankets and Overcoats, through the operation of the Dingley bill, have increased in value 33 per cent, since I bought them ; but as I buy and sell goods in season, they've got to go, and the persons who buy now will BUY BARGAINS and thus escape the full force of the Dingley tariff law which they will have to encounter after present stocks are exhausted.
