Norton would resign his posi lion as Comptroller General and who would succeed him. Mr. Norton has recently said that he will not tender his resignation until he holds a commission as as Congressman. The State board & of canvassers meets today, Mit has " 7 fifteen days in which to issue the certificate of election, so we will probably not know who will be our next Comptroller General for some time. It seems pretty certain that Auditor Epton, of fepartanburg, will be named by Got. Ellerbe to succeed Mr. Nortnn ? ? We have received the prospec tu8 of the Southern Farmer and Horticulturist,* paper which Mr.E H Aull proposes to establish in Newberry, the first issue of which is to appear Nov. loth. As its name implies, the paper will be , purely an agricultural journal. Prof. J S Newman, of Clemson college, will be editor of the new paper and Mr. Aull will have the business management. The very fact that Mr. Aull is at the head of the venture is sufficient warran ty for its success, and the Record will cheerful y welcome the coming of the Southern Farmer and Horticulturist. Hr* fLeutgert, the now famous sausage maker, who for several weeks > has been on trial for bis life, being charged with murdering his * wife and dissolving her body with _i _ ? - - - 1 cuenucais in one ot his sausage at*, was not convicted, the jury standing 8 to 4 for conviciion. Since the trial Leutgert has been tiered a position in a dime museum at a salary of $500 a week, y la commenting upon the offer the Colombia Register said: It may be an unpleasant and tedious thing to be tried for murder now adays, but in the end it seems to have its Compensations. ~ \ Judge Witherspoon will preside at the November term of court ^ which convenes here next Monday. Judge Witherspoon's term of office expirs pretty soon and the legislature at its meeting in January will elect his successer. As he has expressed a refusal serve on the bench any longer this will be bis last visit to this place in bis' i r a. a fi & present omciai capacity. Judge Witberspoon has served quite a number of years as circuit Judge, and has been here several times He has numberless friends in this county and they will all regret to know that his visit here next week will porbably be his last one. The Columbia Record says: "There is interesting war relic s.t Bloorafield, Ky., in the personalty of Basil Hayden, who has not been outside his house for the last 34 years, although he is in perfect health. Mr. Bayden was a large slave owner in 1863, and when his ^laves were taken from him he maintained thai the Almighty has treated him harshly in allowing his slaves to go free. And, by way of retaliation, he swore that he would "never set a foot on God's earth again-" < ' ' ' * ' - \ Aaron Smitn, editor of the j Mount Pleasant (Tex.) Tines lie I viewas born viihoiit arm!
