'ttlbe-July number of this magazine Huts (reached oh, mid as usual is filled with ai ?collection of very readable matter. The Becciicr jury still holds out. What a relief it would be if they and tlvn whole <lirty ntt?ir c\nld be _diy gjpWfel a^L^*TT?nnod^ fr view. Wo cull attention to Mr. J. II. Livingston's card in this issue. He wants twenty good bauds to cut wood, and will pay cash for their labor, this is a good chance for men who are not, afraid of work. Wc have tried not to put any jakes in the paper this week. It is too hot \o set people laughing. Which paper, is going to be the first one to say, that ] we have succeeded as usual in doing so? Big excitement on the Brauehville rond. Impromptu race between Mol ly Darling and Old Bob. Molly threw the dust in Old Bob's eyes. Bobs' owner says he is lame, or Molly could not have done it. There will be a regular disputo between those nags yet Mr. Albergotti will begin moving to his new and convenient store and bakery on Monday next, and begs that his customers will arrange to do without his bread until about Friday, as it will take oil of that time to fix himself so as to give them the kind of bread *.hcy want The Southern Cultivator has again paid us its regular monthly visit. To farmers particularly, the July number must be exceedingly interesting, it is full of information on all matters re lating to the planting interests, and we cordially recommend it to our planting friends. The following Townships have levied for Bchool purposes, the amounts following their names: Bronchville, 21; Cow Castle, 2; Caw Caw, 2i; Elizabeth, 3; Goodby's, J; Goodland, 1; Hebron, <1; Liberty, lj New Hope, 21; Orange, 3; Middle, 3; Willow", 4; 'Zton, 3. The Uuion-Ha aid's extra contain ing Gov. Chamberlain's address deliv ered on the 30th ult. before the Law School of Yale College, reached us yesterday, and wc find it nil that might have been expected from him. polished, logical, incisive, an address, that a "scholar" might, deliver to scholars." The Governor docs his work well both at home und abroad. FRANTZ I) RIG GM A NAT? Is just puttiug the finishing touches, to his hnndsoinc store on "Meronoys old corner" nnd will move over bag and baggage on Wednesday next, and when ho does move over and fix up things, his store will be a gem, after he is settled next week, we will give a full description, that wo know will iutorcst our render. Some roprobnte, without the fear of a newspaper, or a trial juSeicc, before his eyes, did on Thursday last, wil fully, maliciously, fraudulently and by force and arms, tako, steal and carry away from our snnctum, our editorial scissors, and yet tho world moves ou. If the wretch does not desire to have the thread of his life cut short, he will return those scissors, and no questions will be asked. Wo wcio presented the other day with a bunch of five tomatoes in a eompaut clustor, that are not only ad vanced for the season, but arc re markably fine speciineus of the vegeta ble. They are large, round and per fectly smooth.?In fact, all that ono could wish in a tomato. The gen tleman who raised them says he has over a thousand, just now, exactly like them. We call that "tall" gar dening. ODD FELLOWS? The following officers were elected on Monday last to serve for the next six months: Henry Kolin, N. G. F. DeMars, V. G. E. Ezckiel, Secretary. 1*. G. Canuon, Treasurer. The compliment of electing Mr. K!ohn wns paid him while absent from the town, and we learn that there is some question as to whether he will accept the office upon his return. .4 CURIO US TR EE? T Our friend, Mr. D. W. Kobinson, has growing in his yard, a tree of the specie called "Pride of India" or China Berry," that has this peculiari ty that it blossoms continuously, from enrly Spring until frost, and presents through the Summer, the strange .sight of a tree covered, at one and the same time with buds, blossoms, and fruit in all the various stages of its growth. The tree is a curiosity that is well worth a visit. A young colored mau of about fif teen or twenty, put in an appearance herg?Uiuday last, and attracted cou -tf4T4-e?fflnW attention by his ^fcfrrgxdiir appearance and behavior. His mind is evidently unsettled, and he can give no intelligent account of himself, except that he claims the name of William Fields. He was taken home nnd Ttindly cared for by one of our colored citizens, but on Tuesday morning he disappeared, and nothing since has been heard of him. He is a good subject lb r the asylum. With the Thermometer up about ninety, it will be hard to find a better place to go, than the immediate vicinity of Dr. Dukes' Soda fountain. Fur a mere trifle, "She/rod" will sup ply a glass of sparkling Soda, cold ns the condensed essence of the North Pole, nnd sharp as a pretty woman's angry tongue, and send you olfwitha bunch of candy "as is candy" made of sugar, and none of your white clay, or chalk, we have sampled these things, and "know whereof we speak." ?-?-. We have received a long and com plete description of tho closing exhi bition of Capt. Hugo G. Sheridan's school. Want of spnee prevents our publishing it From the account all hands, young and old, must have enjoyed themselves extensively. Such affairs exurt an influence for good beyond tho immediate object aimed at. The current rumor thnt Capt. Sheridan and Mr. Mcllichnmp are about to join their schools, and open in this place is denied by both gentle men. They will continue as before. A meeting of the taxpayers of this township was held on Saturday last at "Brown's'' School House, in this, place for tho purpose of levying a school tax for the ensuing year. We understand that the matter was very thoroughly discussed in all of its bear ings, nnd thn meeting finally decided to levy a tax of three mills for edu cational purposes. Wo do heartily trust that under thnt decision, the amount realized will be amply suffi cient to keep all of our schools going, both while and colored. The hope of our county in the future, is to educate the coming generation, and we are inclined to think that a three mill lax ought to be enough to accomplish tlutt for the next year. The second game of oase ball be tween the Crescent and Orange clubs will take place at Bambe rg, Tuesday July 6th. Ali parties wishing to make this pleasant trip can do so by purchasing tickets from Mr. Dawsori R. R. Agent, at SI.25 for round trip This arrangement being made with Mr. S. B. Binckney, General Ticket Agent, through Mr. J. S. Albcrgotti, President O. B. B. C. Visitors to Bamberg will be conveyed to Branoh ville by down freight, which leaves here at 8 o'clock A. M., connecting with up Augusta passengers. Tickets for sale on Monday. Bo sure and get tickets on Monday, as by special or ders noonowill be allowed on the train without a ticket from the Agent. The I club will assemble at Moselcy's store near-Railroad at 7J o'clock sharp Tuesday morning, i ? <i A white man aged about sixty, named Bend, was run over on the So. Ca. railroad and killed on Thursday i last. He was on his way from Flori da to Branchvillc to see his son. The 1 killing appears to have oocn entirely accidental.) RIVISO THE HORSE? We saw this tried the other day at the suggestion of one ?f a party, of five accomplished horsemen, but s: range to say, the party suggesting the experiment, was thrown in five successive attempts, and was the only I one thrown. Whether it was luck or I fate wc cannot pretand to say. We only know that the unfortunate equestrian could not understand "why these thiugs were thus," ? ???p- ? -. i???? $250,00 REWARD? In another part of our paper, will be found the notice of the above re ward for the detection and conviction of the party, who fired the residence of Mr. Geo. S. Shircr. As we have before expressed oursei ves, wo be lieve that this fire was deleberately, and intentionally set, and we earnest ly hope that the reward offered, will stimulate parties here, to an active and successful search for the misere ant who was guilty of the crime. TRIAL JUSTICE COURT? Business has been active this week, as tho' to contradict our last weeks report, several cases of importance to the people at large have been tried, and thoroughly argued by able Law yers on both sides, prominent among these, has been the ca3c of Burglary and' Larceny, nndnttemted Rape, up on a Lady of our Town, this matter is now under investigation, and we have no doubt will be well and thor oughly sifted. Some minor cases have also arisen, whpjh weie thrown out of Court, upon an exhibition of their pettiness. OranoEnuuo, June 2Sth '75. Gco. JSoliver, Efj., ?rariffcburff, 8. C: Dear Sin?I am directed by E. A. Wehster, Asst T. M. to, acknowledge receipt of your note of 26th inst., in which you state that "complaints were being mado by your subscribers that they did not receive thoir paper be fore 12 o'clock, and that you must insist upon this being corrected, and the paper delivered at a proper hour, &c.'* For the information of yourself and subscribers, you are informed that the "Orangeburg News & Times" will not. be delivered hereafter until after the Charleston mail slinll have been received, opened and distributed. Every effort will be made to accom modate the conimnnity at large, but the Postmaster reserves to himself the right to regulate tho affairs of that office. Very respectfully, Cuas. S. Bull, Clerk. To explain fully the above letter, wo would say, that although our papers are sent to tho Postofliee about 8 o'clock every Saturday morning, yet complaints arc made repeatedly to us that subscribers cannot get their paper until after twelve or one o'elock. Our friends will see now that the delay is not our fault, but that they are put to this inconvcnicnco to satisfy the whims and caprices of an assistant Postmaster. - - - IMIIII-. - ? ??
