The editor in making this : < announcement says: "There is in; < such a transfer as announced to-day j i the final evidence of stability". When : ] a firmly established, money-making j: newspaper passes into the hands of a 1 company it dei^ends no longer on any j i single life, and is in position to eontin-; ue its development under successive ! managers from generation to genera- j; tion. This is the meaning of the re- j 1 ; organization of .the Jfews and Cou-l i | rier" The 2feics and Courier is un- j; questionably the ablest and most en- i j j terprisiug newspaper in the South, and j and it n?ay be classed with the very j < | best newspapers of the countrv. It is : < 1 i1 i ? ?maaaaBc i gratifying therefore, to know that so j J worthy a journal has been financially i ( successful. The editor says it has!

A Strictly Private Execution. < Jesse Barber, convicted of the mur- s c Jer of Mack Ferry in August last, will . be hung on Friday next. At the time j c his sentence his counsel, Mr. A. M. j I Mackey, gave notice of an appeal to ? he Supreme Court, upon exceptions ^ :aken to Judge Pressley's charge to the 3 iury, but we are informed that tJie ap- 3 ^eal has been abandoned or at least * :ias not been perfected. It is almost j ^ sure, therefore, that the doomed man ! v K-'iii nr?v tho noimltv of his crime on ! c Friday. He expresses his readiness to J t lie, but still says that the shot that! villcd his victim was fired accidental- j a ly. lie appears to realize the enormity j i )f the crime of taking the life of a j ? minan being-, and has expressed deep jontiition. He has speut most of his ime in reading h's Bible, and frequent- * y engages in prayer. On Sunday 1 tfternoon he said to Mr. Milling, the * leputy sheriff', that that would be his ast Sunday on earth. He showed no ^ special emotion, and seemed to con- a emplate with calmness his near ap- j c iroachingend. i r The execution will be conducted in j jrivate. As this will be the first in J a Tairfield under tiie new law, we pub-1 * ish the provisions of the statute, asfol- j ows: "That from and after tlie passage of | a his Act, wht (i the punishment of a leath is inf.ickC.l upon any person pur- j uant to i lie sentence of any C'ouri, the | ? xecution shall take place within the i ~ ail or tii 3 enclosure oi' the jail of I!?c ' ' ounty v herein sue!) execution shail j ? e ii.ado u tlic same can lucre iasc i >!ace in such maimer.

Oi'I'OSi:i> TO S Ti: A IT. I J C ."ho Strange History of the Introduction of j Steam Fire Engines in the City of Char- ! li'^toa. j !i Iii connection with the detcrmina- 1ion of the Town Council to purchase c< steam tire engine, it is interesting- to icte that only twenty-two years ago ; t< here existed the opinion that such an ; b pplicatiosi of steam power was ir.iiracticable. In an article sketching t<" he history of the Fire Department of o "harleston. the Sunday St tax contains a* he following: : e: In 1S60 the question of applying! team to the extinguishing of tirts pro- l .uced a very grave ami serious dis-: y nssion in Cliarlesioji. It seems some-: idiat strange, hut it is true, tiiat. the! imposition came tir-t from the most J M :irient ori?anix.ition in tho depart- .ac isent.the Charleston Fire Company of: Ixmcn. Sometime that year, at a' meeting of the company, Mr. \\\ I*.} tassel moved thai Mr. John F. Tay- i tc jr. who hud just a 1'o.w years before j x ecome a member of the firm of Cain- J ron & Co., (Taylor's Iron Work.?,) ; e sent to the North to examine into i ^ he new steam lire engines and to see if J; t would be practicable to build one. s< Ir. Taylor was according sent North, he. company paying his expenses,- anrt etuiWd soon afterward 'fully posted. ^ ^.s the result of this the first steam lire j a< ngiue used south of Baltimore made ' ci ts appearance in Charleston. It was milt by Mr. Taylor at the works at lie cast end of Hasel street, and sue- ^ essfully tried before the groat tire of 1rfGl. Before the brass work was put ej ipou it by W. A. Rook & Co., a tream ot water was thrown a consid- ^ rable distance. The time, however, ^ i*as not propitious for the introduction lc if steam. The firemen themselves [ 21 eerned to regard it as something to be j ireaded, and very serious discussions i-ere had. the new steamer having oil' _ Qor?; tlian one occasion been driven ii rom the scene of a fire. So great was 1 o< lie prejudice that when the company pplicd to the Legislature for a changc , n their charter so as to allow them to ' onvert their organization into a steam ai ire engine company, Chief Nathan was ! $ (ireeled by the Board of Fircniusters j o go to Columbia and oppose the | _ novement before the General Assem- j * >ly. He did so, and afier a warm debate o lie Legislature refused to grant the i . ? n-oposed amendment. The argument j inn iof steam ! ounds very queer now. It is that steam ^ mgrines were calculated to destroy one * ?f ;he best organizations in the conn- c< rv. Chief Nathan, however, hazarded lie opinion that a steam engine could , )C used advantageously as a supply j engine if the necessary supply of water > v :ould be obtained. The great fire of c(il, however, settled the question of team. The new steamer lay in hi;r iou>e with steam up for an hour after :he fire started, the members not dsir- j n<r to use her until a. Uouicueratc om:er ordered lier out. The work of that 0 vrrible night set at rest forever the (_ juestion of the effective work of steam v is compared with manual labor. The var, however, prevented the development of the idea. ^ JEXJOTISG CHRISTMAS. 0 low the Youns: People of Bear Creek Did y This?A Tournament and Two Sociable.*. j] Bear Crekk, January 4, 1882.?The roujig folks along the shores of this * lively but somewhat turbulent old tream, depressed I suppose by the h iontituial cry of "hard times''. from iheir elders. Jet Christmas pass with- ^ >ut any demonstration or merrv-mak- A ?g whatever, bnt finally arousca to he foolishness of any such way of dong determined to enliven up and have ioinefun. It was begun by a tournanent and ball?the former at the old ace-track near Smyrna Church, and he latter at the residence of Dr. J. -A. ^lenn. Fourteen knights entered the " ists?each resolved to do his best for a - - .... 'J lis intended "yueen 01 ijove anu si Beauty". After an exciting- contest t ;he following-named gentlemen were 0 leclared the victors: Mr. Reese, 'Knight of Congaree", first prize, u crowning Miss McQnatters; Mr. Sykes, 0 'Knight of Bear Creek'', second prize, jrowning Miss E. Kennedy; Mr. a [Ieins, "Knight of Ridgeway", third c prize, crowning Miss M. Kennedy. After this was concluded those present r irnro invited to the residence of Dr. c Glenn, where, after partaking of a nice | a supper, dancing was commenced and ! " kept up till broad daylight the next j * morning. Both the tournament and i the dance were very pleasant aflairs,! " and despite the inclemency of the ] I weather were largely attended. Being thoroughly awakened now, the ! _ voung people resolved not to stop, but! 5 to have some more enjoyment. Ac- j cordingly it was agreed upon to get up 1 a masquerade .ball. Some thought this j t a rather aouotiui experiment, as it | \ was to be the first of its kind in the i ^ community, but the result was a most j gratifying succcss. There were more j than thirty in masque. Many of the sost times were very unique and tasty, t>ut where all did well, distinctions trould be invidious. When mingled n the mazes of the waltz, scliottiscl.e, >oika,' racquet, quadrille, etc., they >resc0ted a scene tliat was grotesque tad nicasiiiir in the hiirhest decree. L'Jie gay revellers "tipped the light fanastic?> in costume till eleven o'clock ?the hour for unmasking. This was lojie amid much merriment and many surprises as to identity. At the con:lu>k?n of this dancing' was resumed md continued till the wee sma' hours ?f tho morning. It was an exceedingy well-conducted and enjoyable occaion. and we hope to have the opportutitv of attending- many such. The )leasure of the occasion was greatly eujanced.*hv the presence of one of Coumbja\s most charming daughters and aire?t flowers?Mifs Lillie B.

In miasmatic dis- * tricts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst, lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in the back and loins, and coldness of the spine and extremities, are only premonitions of severer symptoms which termin^te.in-tlia. ague rwovvsm )>v?? fiigu fever andprofuse perspiration. It is a startling fact, that quinine, arsenic, and other poisonous minerals form the basis of most of the " Fever and Aguo Preparations," " Specifics," " Syrups," and "Tonic*," in the market. The preparations made from these m ineral poisons, alt.hrtiiorh f.hev flrA mlatable. and may i t break the chiLl, do not cure, but leave tha j -1malarial and their own drug poison in j Dl'j tho system, producing quinism, dizziness, j are pinging in the ears, headache, vertigo, and j 3ther disorders more formidable than Ox & the disease they were intended to cure. A.vex'3 Ague Cuius thoroughly eradicates these noxious poisons from the system, md always cures the severest cases.
