I desire t(\ tnukc a brief statement in regard to * the recent survey and location of the boundary line be tween Kershaw and Lancaster Coun ties made by authority of the Hoard of Commissioners of Kershaw Coun ty as there seem to he orroneouH im pressions on tho part of some in re gard to this matter. Tho linn between tho two coun ties, as prescribed by tho Legisla ture, in tho statute of 1n!I2, the last on ibo subject, had never, so far oh lmown, bo<n located by aq trial sur vey, fttnl the defoTtninafion of iIiih boundary lino bad become a matter of neco?si'v for tlio proper conduct of tho business of (lie County. All ftttompis to have a survey under h islative enoctinent bud failed owing to obstruction interposed in some quartern*. 'J'ho Com mufti oners of Kershaw County, being thwarted in . scouring ii'iy relief through the Leg, islaluro, determined themselves toj have the lino laid duwn on the lund "by a competent engineer, in accord ance Willi tho description of I lie boundary in the Inst act fixing tin* same. lJeforo taking the step. how ever, an invitation wns extended to) tho Board of County Commissioners of Lancnst-i r to co-operale with the Kershaw County Hoard in making this survey and settling nil disputes and doubts in regard <o tliis lino. The Lancaster Board declined to ac cede to the proposition, and the KerJ sliaw Hoard proceeded to locate the J 4iue for itseir. The Commissioners of Kershaw County fully believe llial<| the fiurvov they have tnado is a cor rect loca'i >n of the boundary, and they expoor to claim jurisdiction to that liue. l'axpayers who recognize1 that line, and pay their tuxes to Ker shaw County, will receive tho sup port of the Kershaw County Hoard J.

Lee, a mining expert and mineralogist, formerly of J>ub? lin, Ireland, and now of Kerahaw county, Hontli Carolina, was in the city yesterday in tiie interest of a company to bo formed to mine gold, tin and alnmnoid in Kershaw and Lancaster I)r. Loo K< a graduate <>f Heidleherg ami Kdiub<*rough uni versities and camo to this eountty about two or three years ago well recommended. ' South Carolina is ri?. 1 * in mineiul wealth," said Pr. Lee, "Inr riclxor than the ordinary citizen supposes and some examinations I have made bear out tl.o recent reports made by your State geologist. Mr Karl Kloun. There is not only gold but iron ore and a clny that' is a substitute for white lead. I find this clay fully equal to that now mined in Penn sylvania npd in Germany and vast beds of it arc untouched." ])r. b< e lian also inspected tiicKa olin bod ? in the upper part of Rich ! land county and his report bears out,' what has already been written of, them in the State from lime to time The poJU ore to which he refers ' pays about S70 to tho ton of quartz j and the vtir extends from tho vicin ; ity of Lugoft, on the Seaboard; Air Line Railroad, on through to, Lancaster, with branches np into!

Youmaua ! stood alone a quarter of a century ago, and tliore in now none to take .hi* place." After deliberating all night over their verdict, the trial committee, qlothcd by the Methodist confer ence with full power# to dispose of the charges of gross immorality brought ngainst tho Rev. C.
