Can any one tell ns? —Ex-ihulgd Willard has been re tained to assist the District Attorney in the political prosecutions in tlld United States Court next April. —All delinquent subscriber^ to Tit* News and JIkrat.d are invited to call and pay their dues.

It will be an elegant store.house when completed, nnd will bdd no little to the appearance bf that portion of Congress Sliecti —O. W. Buchanan, Esq., has ten dered his resignation to the Governor ns trial justice for this place. Mr. iluchanan has given entire satisfaction in the discharge of the duties of the office. We hope the Governor will be ti& happy in the selection of his succcs* eor. —An apostle of culture, with a com plexion several shades darkel 1 than iuidnight, who would perhaps answer to the exhorter of several years stand ing, approached a physician of this town a short time since with the re mark: “I was earning to see you this morning, Doctor, to get you td rozam- inc me; I am ’fraid that lam taking the nurality.” —Complaints are heard from all sec tions of the county that the farmers are behind with their work—thousands of pounds of cotton in the field unpicked, grain unsown and roads impassable. This, dt first blush, seems to be a bad showing, but we cannot see how it fcould have been otherwise, when it is remembered that we have had nearly twenty days of uain. Why, the Bible tells us that the flood was only forty days. —We arc glad to learn thivt the little boys in town have organized a debat ing society. The object is certainly a praiseworthy one, and we congratu- lote them upon their good taste and excellent judgment. The organization will not only afford them much gen uine pleasure, but will doubtless be a source dt real and substantial improve- iqejit. Training begun this early will cqhip them for* the stirring scenes of alter life, and it may be, from the sftd sown now, they will some day reap the fruit of victory in the debating halls of the nation. Personal.—Misses Ella Doty and Emma Dunn lotion Wednesday for the Hillsboro Female Seminary, carrying with them the best wishes of their Winnsboro friends. They went under the charge of Mr. W. R.

He has hosts of friends all over the State, who are always glad to sec him. Court.—The Court of General Ses sions convenes here on the second Monday—the 12th inst.-*-and Judge Kershaw will preside. Thefd will be a number of cases tried at this term, among them, two murder cases, one burglary, two perjury, a considerable number for assault and battery with intent to kill, carrying concealed dead ly weapons, larceny from the field, and larceny of live stock. The crimi nal court will probably consume the greater portion of the week. The civil docket will be somewhat heavier than usual. The Chester Reporter.—With the beginning of the present year 'the Chester lieporter entered ”pon its fif teenth Volume. The Reporter, frottt its earliest history, has taken a high stand atnong the papers of the State, and has deserved well of the people Whose intcres’s it has striven so faith fully to advance. Mr. John H." Bu chanan is now its editor and he carries to his work experience, talent ami a hearty {letet'mination to make the paper an instrument for good to the people of South Carolina. We wish him many years more oi usefulness. Death at Capt. James Beaty< ■Our community was deeply shocked to hear, on Wednesday morning, of the very suddeu death of Capt. James Beaty, Ho had been in apparently good health for some time past, and though he bad suffered some attacks of vertigo, yet he seemed to have re covered entirely, and was attending to business as nsual. On the morning of his death he breakfasted as usual, but soon afterwards feeling badly he sent for his physician, who prescribed remedies which seemed to afford re lief—to such an extent that the doctor had just left the house, and was sum moned baek, to find Captain Beaty in it dying condition. In a few moments all was over. Captain Beaty was a native of Fair- field, and had spent his life in business in this county. He was born in April, 1823, and was therefore in the sixtieth year of his age. At the age of fifteen Cari-ks’s < Mr. A. J f years lie started life ns a clerk with ’ i with Mr. James A. McCrorey. A few years later he bommenced business on his own account, and so continued till tlie outbreak of the war, living, at 1 different times, at llossville and ttt Gladden's Grove. In 1861 he entered the Confederate service in the Sixth Regiment, S. C. V.} and was after wards a captain in the Seventeenth' Regiment, then commanded by | cx-Govcrnor Means, and continncd in this position until 1864 when, owing to failing health, he tvaH assigned to duty in the quar termaster’s department. Ho was Wounded at the second battle o. Manassas. At the clow of the war ii<5 resumed business at Gladden’s Grove, where he continued till 1871, when he removed to Winnsboro. He was the senibb member of the firms of Beaty & Bro. and J. M. Befety & Co. Ho was elected a director of the Winnsboro National Bank at its organization, and j held that position up to thC t 8 me of his death. He took a prominent part in the formation of the Winnsbord Building lind Loan Association, and was for some years president of that corpora tion. He never took an active part in politics,^though always evincing a deep interest in all that concerned the welfare of the State. In 1870 he was, without any wish from him, nominat ed for tiie Legislature from this county on the “Union Reform” ticket, ft was conceived that man of Captain Beaty’s character would attract the vote of *11 who wanted peace and order here, but he. along with the other nominees, was defeated by a heavy black majority. Captain Beaty was a devoted member of Mount Olivet Presbyterian Church, of which he was for many years a ruling elder. Of late years he attended regalirly at Scion Church in this place. In both congre gations he was held in the highest esteem, and his counsels wefts always received with the utmost respect. He leaves his wife—a daughter of Mr. James A. McCrorey—five sons and three daughters. The life of a man like James Beaty is full of tiiofcb examples which good men are wont to follow. If we look through his course, it may be that we shall find no single act con spicuous above all others for its meritorious character. Ilb always fol lowed the straight path of duty, as marked out by an enlightened con science, stopping not to consider the consequences to himself. He had con victions strong enough indeed, but nevertheless regulated by a conserva tism which was born of justice and prudence. These convictions he never hesitated either to express or to put intotictiou whenever occasion demand ed. Unobtrusive in disposition and modest in manner, he was nevertheless ready, when occasion demanded, to express his views Hilly and frankly. We have said that he was conservative; but his conservatism was of that kind which made it a positive feature of his character impressed it upon the community. Moderation would per haps be a better name for this quality, and while it was prevalent in Captain Beaty’s character it nowise detracted from his firmness in the discharge of duty. In all the relations of life duty was his guide, and lie ever acted fully up to all its requirements. He was; alive to all the demands of his citizen- ■ ship, taking an active interest in all that concerned the welfare of the borh- mnnity. In life different institutions of which he was an officer his constant care was to servo the interests of those concerned. In his business relations he had the full confidence of all with whom be dealt. Honest, inflexibly honest, himself, he was slow to sus pect dishonor iu others, and censured only where his ccusure was just. He was a successful merchant, accumulat ing A considerable property by indus try and strict attention to business. The name he leaves behind is one of which any man might well he proud, and it will be honored not alone by those who pay homage to a departed kinsman, but by all who admire those qualities which* we are taught, go to make up “the perfect man and the upright.” —The funeral services will be held in the Presbyterian church at twelve o’clock this morning. The friends and acquaintances of the family are reepcet- finlly invited to attend. ITEMS MOMrjBASTEariLLX. —Miss Maggie Robinson left last week on si. visit to her Georgia rela* tlvos. —Mr. Thomas McKeown and Miss Maggie Cameron were married on lbs 18th nit. by the Rev. J, D. MahJft. —There Is considerable sickness in the upper section. Mr. William Banks lost his infant, one year of ago, on the l?th nit. —Three droves Of* mules recently passed throngh the Cornef. But few Were sold. Prices ranged in the neigh borhood of f 160 for ordinary animals. —Mr. J. A. Coleman had tiro misfoT- tnne to get his thumb crushed a few days since with a maul. The wound* “having canght cold,” gives him ex cruciating pain. —The boarding-house of the Crosby Institute is now being rapidly pushed to completion by the energetic con tractor, Mr. Joe Crosby. When com pleted, it promises to be one of the handsomest and most commodious houses in the Corner. —We chronicle the following late removals: Mr. Lee Roberts from Blackstock to Mrs. Margaret Halsell’s; Mr. Isom Franklin to Mr. Jesse C- Taylor to Mr. t)avid Weir’s; Mr. Henry Varnadoro from North Carolina to Mr. Joseph Neeves’s. —An inclination towards fancy prices seemed occasionally to display itself in the estate sale of C. B. Price; deceased; on the 19th ult. Whilst the price of other effects was reasonable, corn sold as high as $1.16 per bushel | bacon, recently slaughtered, at fifteen cents; fodder at $1.15 per hundred; and a top-bnggy, in use abotit one year, fof $85: —Mr. Elmore Boney has returned, after having spent some tlmfe bn a tour of inspection amongst the farmers near Covington, Ga., and Aiken, in this State. He reports the working classes in Georgia more quiet, politically; than here; but, white and black, in the same financial straits. The negroes seem more systematic and underbet- ter control. lie was most favorably impressed by the thrifty appearance bf the “Levels” lying around and be tween Aiken and Montmorenci. Aiken is a favorite resort for Northern inva lids. More than twenty boarding houses fire filled with visitors. The lands, a light clay subsoil, valued at from $50 to $100 per acre; are largely devoted to fruit nnd vegetable raising for home and different markets. Every where the high road to success seems to be intelligence. —It is not uncommon in country communities to find a decided want of sympathy and co-operation in all pub lic enterprises. A consequence of this is, that the people are not only de prived of the benefits of developed institutions, but farionsly burdened by a surplus of nbn-producing popula tion. The folly of not uniting may be illustrated with the following anec dote: There was once a certain man who wished a tailor to make him a cap. Having bought what he supposed would be clotli enough, and deposited it with the thilor, and left, he began to reflect on the notorious disposition of tailors to “keep the remnants.” Final ly impressed with thd conviction that he had deposited cloth enough for two caps instead of one; and that the tailor would defraud him of the second, he returned and ordered two; and so con tinued the process until five had been ordered. When the caps were fin ished, calling, he received them, one from feach finger-tip of the tailor’s han$. In most communities there is only enough for one good cap. Shall it be one for the head, or several for the finger-tips? —A true tonic medicine, a blessing in every household; is Brown’s Iron Bitters. * Last Appeal.—Looking to your own interest is one of the first laws of nature. Therefore having granted liberal indul gence to my customers, they must not com plain If they find, after the; loth of Februa ry, their accounts in ether hands for immo- aeffe collection with cost added;• In the future payment, will positively be required when lulls come due, regardless of prices being too low to sell cotton, or ration hills and hank debts to pdy first.
