The D eniocratic part? take every opportunity
to let it go forth to the world
that all they wanfis good 'government,
retrenchment and low taxation, yet it is
evident from the above that they do not
wish to accept it at the hand- of the Kepublican
party. AH they want is power
and'office, and their leaders who are coveting
the'flesh pots, would that tho.-e in
power, would go to greater excesses than
any party in ]*>wor 1ms done, even to
such an extent, figuratively sn viking a
to steal the eyes out of our heads and
the hearts out of our bosoms. " The
Rcpulican party will not gratify them.
but will in the next campaign go to the
people, with their redeemed pledges of
low taxation and retrenchment; made
during the la^t canvass. This to the
chagrin of the opposition,

The Unio.i Herald calls attention
to the fact that if the amendments recom'
mended by the committee of the Senate
to the bill to fix the salary of certain officers,
is ado| ted tire County Treasurer of
Beaufotfc would if the State and County
taxes were fifteen mills, only receive $1,602
per year, while under the provisions
of this same bill the County School Commissioner
would receive $1,000 for his
services, and yet we have it front high au.
thority that the duties of this office could
bo faithfully discharged by devoting three
days in each month. The above comparison
shows the absurdity-?not of retrenchment
for this was a pledge of the party?
but of the manner in which this bill proposes
to bring that retrenchment about.

ful admission on the party he serves, it
will make the approaching campaign ninth
easier than it otherwise would be. It' Nomocracy

Bradley, vs. South Carolina'
Phosphatie Bivcr .Mining Company and
the Marino ami Bivcr Phosphate Mann
facturhig <'oiupany. This was a billon i
jb.ing } arties Irom digging phosphatie
t deposite in any oft he navigable steams ol i
: the State of South Carolina. The bi 1
alleges that on the first day of March.}
1S7??, the (Jeneral Assembly of the State i
of South Carolina passed an net entitled
"An art to g ant to certain personsthere-;
in named an i their associates the right to .
dig and to mine in the beds of the navi- ;
vable waters of the State of South Caroli- ,
f
na for phosphate rock and phosphatie de- }
posits. ' The plaintiff allege that by virtue
of the said act they were granted exclusive
right to dig. mine and remove |
such deposits fin-a term of twenty-one |
year\ The defendants deny that the j
plaintiff-, had such exclusive right; and ;
also deny that the plaintiff (Bradley) had :
the light to sue in his own name. The j
question to be considered, which was do-1
| cisive of this case, was whether or not
tiie grant to the plaintiffs under the act
of March 1st, 1870, was a grant of an exclusive
right to dig, mine and remove the
t *
I phosphatic deposits in tho navig ble wa
ten* of the State. The court did not think j
that "the act gave such exclusive right,
and aetoidingly refused the injunction and j
dismissed the bill. A notice of an appeal !

Court of General Session.
The above court for the February term
1 commenced on Monday, was organized
and proceeded to ?business on Tuesday,
Judge J. J. Malior, presiding,
j The following members of the Bar
! were in attendance: Messrs. \V. J.
j Colcock, C. Colcoek, C. J. C. Hutsou
' J. M. Mooic. T. S. Tillinghast, W. J.
Verdier, * Jeff Warren T. II.
Wheeler, Alfred Williams A. A. Brad|
ley.F. I>. J. Lawrence,S. J.Bampfield.
The pe.omtl of the Grand Jury was
i a change en that of previous years, a new
jury couimis>icncr having been appointed,
i There were eleveu white men on
: the grand jury.
His Honor explained to the jury the
j nature of their duties, reminding them of
t the sacreduess of their oath, and particu!
larly cautioned them against talking wiih
j anyone as to the cases that came before
, them, and especially as to how, this or
; that man voted in any cases as 'hey were
bound to secrecy, and were very reprehensible
wh.'n they divulged anything.
It was an insult to them for anyman to
approach a juror on the subject of cases
during their entire term of twelve months,
and if they knocked such men down he
would say as a judge, it would oo tne i
mildest case of assault and battery that
ever came before him.
Mr. T. II. Wheeler called the attention
of the court to the fact that
there were 110 qualified juries,
as the jury com:? issioncr was not qua1
ficd and the chairman of the board ol
county cctuinissincrss was not present at!
the drawing.
His Honor . You had better challenge
the array when your ca>es come up. I
propose to go on with the court, the Su?
preuie Court has decided that a majority
j of the board can act.
Mr. \\ heeler : We admit that when
all the parties are summoned a majority
1 can act but in this case the Chairman of
i the Hoard of Commissioners was not no'
tified.
' His Honor : He ought to have been
f as a matter of propriety, and it is aston
1 ishing to me, that so simple a law can.
_ 4 I
I not be carried out. The act was made
to prevent irregularities, and this neglect
! on tHe part cf the commissioner receives
j my st rouge-t condemnation. I shall
however go on with the court, and you
! can challenge the array when your cases
come up, and bring out the fa.ts in a formal
way. Hut as to the jury commissioner
?
Mr. Wheeler: He does not possess j
the necessary qualifications. Ho has ncv- j
cr been confirmed by the Senate, and I ;
am informed that his name has not even j
been sent in.
His Honor : The law is different on j
the conjunction ot jury commissioners,
than as to Treasurers and Auditors. The
non-coufiroiation ofii jury commissioner j
does not restore the old commissioner, so j
tint there would be no commissioner, but j
?tiil lie had some color of authority lie
was a do facto officer. Yoa can bring [
the matter up again.
Several idictmei's were handed
to tie grand jury, and t!u court j
adjourned until Wednesday"
Messrs. Vflr.pper, Wheeler and Colcock '
argue ltheque>tion on Wednesday. Atfida- '
v its were into dueo I setting forth that Dr. J |
lYitchard had uevcr received the neccssarv
notification, and that the Senate up to i
the S;t inst., had not confirmed the ap- I
p lintment of Mr. Conant, and to the lc;t I
ot their knowledge, not since.
Mr. Whipper contended that the com- i
mbsioner could not legally set unless con- j j
lirmc \ ai d although in this ease the ap-!.
pointment was made duiinga recess in j
the Senate, yet there had been sufficient j
time lor his name to have been sent in, ' i
and action taken by the Senate .after its ! 2
re assembling liefore the jury (oinmission-! j
er was rccjuit<h! l v law to peif'orm the ne-! t
cessary duties of his office. He explained j i
the intention of the !c :i- -attire in throwing j1
around such appointments th) protection t
of Irving tho voice rMhjjicop^
ttic ease in ;he ? -.> vt Ixiuicii-i wtuio
the jury had !eon sot aside on the ground
of thero being* no loyally appointed jury I
commissioner under similar oin. um.stanoes
as exist in this county.
Mr. Colcock was of opinion that there j
was nothing in the first point, b cause the i
law give authority to the majority to act. j
And he held that even it the Senate re- i
fused to /onfinn Mr. Conant, his acts
under commission would he rn rfeetlv t
lawful.
Mr. Wheeler followed, reviewing the j
law a< to the appointment and confmna- !
tio i of the jury commissioner, and also
strenuously urging that although the law
had been so changed that a majority of
the board of jury commissioners could
act, yet it was incumbent upon the jury
commissioner to notify each member of
the board of the day of meeting of said
board.
[lis Honor decided to go on with the court
and allow the parties to make the question
in the Supreme court, and granted
an application to file the papers connected
with the application, and to take a certified
copy of the same in each case that
thev desired to carry up. He however
admitted that he was not very firm in the
view he had taken of it, but was acting
more on his inclination.
The following true bills have been returned
by the Grand Jury : Joe Singleton,
burglary and larceny, Alfred Linguard,
burglary and larceny : Thaddeus
Orr, murder; Lazerus Green and Paul
Jackson forgery; Monday Jackson* assault
with intent to kill; Aaron Middleton

report of the committee sets forth that
after due consideration "that the said J.

legislature, and al o a member of the
commission on school text books, did
make improper and corrupt proposals to
several publishing houses.'' The com
uiittee however made no recommendation
as to whether Mr. Robertson should
be expelled, reprimanded, or forgiven, so
that the report was recommitted to thim
for further action.

executive officers to $2,000, with

' abroad, and at the annual conference in
, H74. the Rev. Bishop was induced in
I consequence of the great need of Beaufort
to appoint 31 r. 3Ioms to the pa. t>rnte
here. He assumed charge here one year
ago, and was working a great change in
the church, when his health becoming
impaired, he was advised to temporarily
give up his profession and engage in the
