In L4abo Again.
There are some peopl in this
world seemingly doomed to oon,
tinued trouble. Once they get out
of one scrape, they are into another,
and once they recover from the
effecti of one misfortune, aother
and a greater ovoi takes them, Of
this piitble class of human beings
would seem to be Spencer Hughes,
an individual not without some re.
nown in these parts. LaAt siumer lie
got involved in a little conpl o tun
about a hog belonging to Mr. John
Wylio. Somo pople were ungoner.
ous enough to intimate that Sponcer
had actually stolen this valuable
animal, and a relentloss trial justice
coumlitted him to jail to await his
trial on the charge of grand larceny.
The weary months rolled by, and the
lonely (1) eaptive looked wistfully
through barred and bolted windows
down upon the busy throng that
Came and wont, altogether hoodless
alike of his wrongs and of his in
noconco. But November came, and
with it the court before which the
accused froodman was to appear for
trial. Ho was well prepared. No
less than three distinguished men
learned in the law had been retained
in his defence, and this fact, in con
nection with the high charactor of
the accused, was considered sure to
secure a full vindication of that
charaoter. Yet there was some
thing wrong. The defendant, with
a degree of candor that does him
honor, stopped boldly forward and
pleaded guilty of petit larceny.
Fortunately for his charactr, the
stolen hog was not worth twenty
dollars. Sentence day came and
Spencer was doomed to confinement
for one day in the county jail-a
place from which his sensitive
nature caused him to shrink with
a strange feeling closely akin to
horror. But h' endured, in the
hope of an early release. What his
thoughts were in the drear hours of
his imprisonment, we leave the
sympathetic reader to imagine. He
went to his home, but not to that
peace which innocence should bring.
It was not very long cre he was in
the hands of a law-officer again. In
a fit of temper-he is a very high
strung man-ho used threatening
language to his wife, whereat the
said wife was greatly alarmed, and
she hied forthwith to the office of
Trial Justice Rober'tson and sued
out a warrant for tihe arrest of her
irate spouse, praying that lie should
bo required to give surety for tile
peace, else he might do her great
bodily harm. But where was a
stranger to find szreties ill a selfish
communnity like this? There wie
none. And the umfoitunate man wa.
commlifitted again to the con siderte
keeping of the sheriff, till apeo
hond should be excnted according
to law. The c'hIauces :<ieme
ini favor of Spencer's reumaning in
the county jail for the period oif a
year and ai daly. But she relenited,
and1( consentedl to at diicharge of the
unfortunate man, and, after paying
costs he was set free again. Such
is life. Such is wedlock. Such is
woman. tSuch is law. Such is
justice.
Presentment.
The following prlesenltmont was
made by the grand jury at the re
'cnt term of the circuit court, for
Fairfield county :
STATE OF SOUTH CAROLIA,
CoUNT'Y 01F FAIVELD511.5
Tob the Hfonora(doh Th'/omas Jf.
Miackey, F'res lding Jfudgec:
The Grand Jury for Fairfield
counity, at this~ the November term
of the Court of General Sessions,
A. D. 1876, beg leave most resp~ect,
fully to make the following Presente
ment :
We have examinecd the county
jail, and find it in goodl condition,
securoii, and the prisonersF prorly
cared for, as weclh as supplied with
wholesome food and sufficient
bedding.
The public roads of the county
are generally reported to be good
and the br1id ges in fair condition.
The offies of the Sheriff, Ulerk of
Court, Probate Judge, County
Traurer, County Auditor and
School Comumissionmer have been ex
amined by a committee of tiho
Grand Jury, and found in proper
condition, andl tile records and
Ibooks .neatly kept.
The County Commissioners' oflico
has also bee~n examined, and its
affairs found to he in a healthy eon
dition, and the duties incident to
its administration properly dis
elharged. The short time allotted to
thle examination did not admit of
a critical investigation, bult the
Grand Jury believe that the books
are kept, and the accounts filed1, in
accordance with law.
A committee of the Grand Jury
visited the County Poor -House, and
reported the inmatos well eared for.
No complaint whatever was made in
this quarter. On the contrary, tile
Inmate seemed contented and
satisfted with their surroundings.
They are well fed, corofortably
cinthnd. and kindly trated by Ms
Smart, the Matron. The Gran(
Jury very earnestly recounend tho
Mrs. Smart be retained as UIatro
by the newly elected Board c
County Commissioners.
From a statement of the count3
fnances, exhibited by the Count,
Conllmissioners, the entire past in)
debtedness of the county, contracte<
prior to the 31st October, 1874, ha
been paid, and there remain no uin
paid accounts for tle fiseal yeai
eidiing 31st October, 1875. Thi
C(ommissioners state also that ther<
are inflicient funds in the hainds o
tihe oity Treasmuir, uibje t. t
their order, to py aill aulditet
claimiIs for the fiscal year onding
31st October, 1876 For the pres
CIt t8cal yoar there has been loviet
a tax of three (3) mills on the taxablb
property of the counity, to mmecc
current expenses. This levy wvil
raise $10565.97, but this amount iN
doemed to be insufficient, in th<
the light of past expenditures. Th<
Grand Jury reconnnend the re
duction of the salaries now paid t
public officeor, and also the abolish
iment of such ofilos a" are useles:
and unnecessary. The imnpoverish
eId condition of the people imnperla
tively donands the strictesteconoin
in the administration of publi(
affairs, and this Grand Jury especial
iy enjoin ulpon the newly electo(5
General Assembly such legislatior
as will tend to lift from the peoph
the heavy burdons that retard thei
advancement to prosperity.
We feel it our duty as public ser
vants, with a due appreob 'tion of om
responsibilities, to resent, in th<
name of the whole po p e, the im.
putation that certain p .rsns, high
in authority, sought very m ecently to
put upon this county, in comimmon
with other sections of the State.
With reference to the proclamation
of h's Excellen, y tihe Gavern r,
issued on the 7th October last,
wherein it was charged that anm
armed insurrection existed in this
State, and that unlawful commbina
tions had been entered into with a
view of obstructing the execution of
the laws in this State, we declare
distinctly an1d unequivocally that, fao
far as said proclamation was in
tended to refer to the citizens of
Fairfield county, the charge therein
conitined was wholly false. and we
brand the same as a malicious libel
upon a people whose reputation for
law and order has remnainod un
sullied since the establishment of
the Republic. We proclaimi that
peace prevails within the limits of
this county, and that the civil au
thorities are all-powerful to enforce
the laws. We believe, and so as
sert, that there is no class of our
people aniamated by a desire to resist
tihe regularly constituted authorities
within this county, and we havt
entire confidenco in the ability of
the a1forvaid authorities to Vxecutj
all legal processes.
In taking leave of your Honor, the
Grand JJury cordially thank yNou for
thme pautienlt and1 abIle mmanner ii
wiclh they have been i nstructed bym
you in the dischmarge of thmeim
oneroflus dulties, and also for th<(
uniform kindness and courtesy thn

All of whiichi is agr'tood to iumanim
