Can't some of our enter prising friends make up a party, and allow us to share in the dividends ? Don't all speak at once. PERsoNA.-Rev. C. E. Chichester returned honme yesterday, from a pleasant trip to New Orleans, to attend the meeting of the General Assembly of his church. We are pleased to learn that be is iuch im p'roved ia health, We have been requested to an nounee that there will be a meeting of the Mount Zion Society in the the Town Hall this morning at 9 o'clock. A full attendance is de sired, as business of importance will come up for consideration. FAIRFIELn FIRE ENGINE COMPANY. At the meeting of this organization on Friday night last, a committee was appointed to make arrangements for a hop, to be given at an early day for the resuscitation of the compa ny's treasury. When the arrange ments are perfected, due announce ment will be made in those columns. We beg leave to call the attention of our "city fathers" to the con dition of the covering of the Court House cistern. There is a hole in it catused by decay large enough to admit a good-sized foot, and it is barely possible that a suit for damages might be the result unless it is looked after immediately. The Mount Zion Society, at its recent quarterly meeting, appointed a building committee, consisting of Messrs, L. N. Withers, James A. Brice and T. R. Robertson, who were specially charged with the matter of repairs on the school house, and the purchase of neces sary furniture foi 'the school room. - The building is sadly in need of re pair, and we are glad to learn that the committee have gone to work at once to make the necessary arrange mients to remedy the defects. The school room furniture most desira ble at this 'time are globes 'and out' *line maps and it is to be hoped that the committee will find no trouble in providing these necessary ar?. juncts. "Ye old folkges" are busily engaged in preparidg theinisettos 'for the "greate concerto' which they pro.. pose 'to give some evening next week, and the entertainrient promi ses to be a complete success. This is the first time such a concert has ever been given in Winnsboro, aidd" the costumes and the musical selec tions have all been carefully adopted with a view to the fundamental ,idea of the entertainmet,--a presentation of the ways of the oldent time. The best musical talent~ of the town will take gart, and the choruses are being drilled, so tja} ~there may be - ' nothing to mar tne pleasure of the entertainment.1 greshments, wifl be served during the evening. The proceeds will be devoted to Winna bore's crack company, the Gordon Light Infan1try. Funllek particulars will be given hereafter. The Columbiq .Regiee,! states that on Thursday mornig Joe B3e1 ton, Frank 3ohmson .and Jackson Burns1 convIctenfrdri 'thilb -co\nty I(f the Penitentiary, .all colored, inade an effort to escae by fllnging into the river .and h'lariipg der the islands. 'They. ha Searly reached one of Ithe isigddat'tl riil before they werp discovered by the guard The signal of escape was at once given, when tho guards along th line opened a brisk and oontinuou fire at the oscaping convicts, whici was kept up until several ljundred shots were fired. The whole force of guards wore employed in trying to capture the convicts, and aftea much difficulty succeeded. It wai discovered after the convicts wer< re-captured that Boltop was shot it several places, while Johnson had received a ball in his back whic passed out through his mouth Burns was unhurt. Bolton died or Friday, and Johnson is not expectod to live. All three of the convict had been convicted ->f burglary Joo Belton was a desperado and an old offender, this last being his thiri time in the penitentiary. He es caped once. Several years since, 114 got into an affray with anothoe colored man and was so badly cut ir the abdomen that his intestine protruded, Prior to his last con viction he was a fugitive from justic for some time, and on one occasior fired several shots at his pursuers It is a fortunate circumstance thai this hardened and desperate crimi nal will no longer be a source o1 annoyance to Fairfield county. After this salutory lesson, it it hardly probable another attempt tc escape will soon be made. A CARD, MONTICELLO, June 1st, 1877, Editors of The News and Herald . It is rumored throughout th< county that an election will be or dered at any early day for clerk o: the court, and there being severe: aspirants for the nomination by the Democratic party, I have been urged by friends to define my posi tion. I was nominated for the oflice of clerk of the court by the county convention, and the recen election of Messrs. Gaillard and Bric< shows that the same ticket is still ii the field, and I therefore claim tha I am the nominee. JNo. B. DAvis. To lte Citizens of Fairfield County, I announce myself as a candidate fo the office of Clerk of the Court for Fair field county. The following are ny reasons for seeking the offie: I have a large family to support, ad children t< educate by my own efforts. I lost an a in the service of my eountry, and thi office would at least be a great help to man in my situation. So If no othe: man offers, wvhose qlaims are better, and you will elect me I p~romnise to fill th< office honestly, and to the best of m) ability. juno 2-tf R. Hl.
