Governor Hampton has appointed
Mr. T. It. Robertson tral justice for

hps held the office for two years
past, and his re-appointment will
give general satisfaction.
We learn of the death of Mrs.

SFRMON TO THE YOUNG.-The Rev.
J. M. Todd, pastor of the Associate

in the Methodist Church. There
will ba no services in the other

attend.
A negro named Prince Pinkrney was
brought to town on Wednesday,
chargeid witlh an attempt to commit
un outrage upon a respetable lady
living in the Loingtown neighbor
hood. We trust he will suffer the
severest penalty known to the lawv.
Our regret is that the amended law
-inflicts too mild a penalty. The
brute deserves to die on the gal
lowy.
A CORREcTO.-In THlE NEWs AND
HEMiLD of January 25, we published
the following, as "showing the spirit
of Lancaster" :
Mr., U.). Whiiten, tax agent,
opened his office in Lancaster Jan
uary 10th. During the day he took
in $1,060, about one-sevenith of the
proposed amount, The people
'were annions to pay. An old coloi-ed
man, Wan. DeWalt, better known as
"Uncle Billy," insisted on contribu
ting a dollar, though he owns no
property and is exempt from the
poll-tax. Mr, Pettis Chick, whose
quota was only $13, said that wasn't
enough for Hampton, and paid $50
more, Mr. S. K. Diek, a Georgia
cotton buyer, asked leave to con,.
tribute a ten dollar bIll, which was
granted. Tho whpis smount called
for will be paiid.
This paragraph referred really to
Newberry,, and we gladly make the
correcti on,
C9NLE9TION~ OF TAK~E.-TbO offie

Among those who paid early was

ownin~ any proprtyr in . Eniigel4
and. Ub~llaiefentixl itn ~is
eounty, contributed flye dollars--five
yeas'goggaggelj gap ton
We note, as an indication of the
confidence pf the business men in
the strength and stability of the
Hampton Goyrnrnent, the fact that
the Winnsbro National Bank has
paid its quota to the Special Agent
here. This bank is under the
ma uagemont of some of the best
financiprs in South Carolina, and
the fact that gucl a corporation
recognizes and supports the Hamp
ton Government is a good index of
the state of feeling among business
men and capitalists gonorally. All
over the State the earliest and most
libera4 responses to the Governor's
call have been from successful busi
ness men,
The total amount collected by
Special Agent Davi>, up to four
o'clock, on Friday afternoon, is
$1107.13.
THE STATE GRANoE.-The State
Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry
in South Carolina will hold its annu
al meeting at Columbia on Wednes
day next. Delegates will be passed
over the Charlotte, Columbia and
Augusta, and the Wilmington, Co
lumbia and Augusta Railroad at the
special rate of three cents per nail
each way. Delegates must purchase
round trip tickets - such tickets to
be good from the 5th to the 12 inst,
inclusive. Over the Greenville ani
Columbia Railroad round trip tickets
will b? sold at the same rate, from
the 5th to the 7th, good for ten days.
The same privilege is extended to
the families of delegates. On tho
south Carolina Railroad excursion
tickets will be sold to delegates and
their families at six cents per mile
for the round trip-being about half
the regular rates. The hotels in
Columbia make to delegates great
reductions in their charges, as will
be seen from the following schedule
of rates
Wheeler House, $2.50 per da3.
Columbia Hotel, $2.50 per day.
Mansion House, $1.50 to $1.75 per
day.
Rose's Hotel, $1.40 per day
Central Hotel, $15Q per day.
gendrix House, $2,00 por day.
THE QUBERNAToRfA QUEgTION.
The question of the governorship of
South Carolina- came squarely before
Judge Mackey at Chester, as will be
seen from the following telegram
from that place, dated January 31
T he habeas coI'pus case of Amzi
Rosborough, who was pardoned by
G*overnor Hampton, camne up for a
hearing to-day before Judge Mackey
on the return of the sheriff to the
writ. The sheriff in his return de
nies that Wade Hampton is Govcrn,
or of South Carolina, an~d denies
therefore that the paper purporting
to be a warrant of pardon is a valid
pardon.
The case was argued for the pris
oner very ably by Gen. WV. A, Walk-.
er, and in support of the sheOriff's
return by T. C. Gaston, solicitor of
the circuit, and John A. Bradley, Jr.
Juidge Miackey rendered his de
cision immediately upon the close of
the argument, holding that Wade
Hampton was dilly elected Governor
and was installed pursuant to the
Constitution. In the couirse of his
decision Judge Mackey gahl that i
the essence must yield to the matnner
and the substance to the forpn, then
D. H. Chamnberlp~in has n)ever been
Governor of the State ; for the Con-.
stitution declares, iln Section 8, Arti..
cde 3, that the Governor shall be
installed on a day to be provided for
by law, and the General Assembly
has never passed an act designating
such day,
This point has not before been
presented in- the case. The bar here
regard this opinion of Judige
Mackey's as clear and conclusive
upon the issues involved, and believe
that it will eity 'conviction every
where to tile legal mind of tile colln
try. Judge Mackey announced that
he would file his written opinion in
the cage on, Strday,
A similar case has likewise arisen
in Aiken county. Governor Hampton
sent to the sherif' a pardon for
Benjamin Cato, confined in jail
under a sentence for malicious mis
chief, and thei prisoner 'was at once
released by th~e sheriff Mr, Willdge
T. Thalley.
