But it would not be legitimate ^ to conclude that just the same credit has been given, as it is possible'tbat the "opening" may have gone in the one case much deeper than in the other. ?Col. S. A.

The unauthorized use of such words as scoop, mash, etc., it is said should receive special ani mad version, and in this we take occasicn to say that we very cordially agree. In fact it wouldn't be much amiss to make the preseDt current misuse of the latter term a misdemeanor, punishable by fine and imprisonment. * ... ASSAULT AXD BATTERY OF A iilGH an*d Aggravated Nature. ? Trial Justice Neil issaed a warrant on last Thursday for the arrest of Andrew Gadsden, colorcd, who lives on the plantation of Mr. S. W. RnfF. lie is charged with committing a violent and brutal battery on the person of his wife with a bed slat. She is said to be in a very critical condition, and he is at large. The Sheriff has dispatched a deputy in search of him. Survivors ok the Twf.lth Regiment.?Capt. J. R. Boyles, Secretary of the Twelth Regiment Survivors Association, has received a letter from Hon. I. D. Witherspoon declining with much regret to deliver the annual address before the next meeting of the said Association. Asking the Secretary to assure the Survivors that it would afford him great pleasure to meet and address them, he insists that only the pressure of official duties I could induce him to forego the same. A Liberal Offer.?In order to advance our subscription list we have decided to make the following offer: To any one sending us one dollar cash we will send the weekly News and Herald till January, 1S86, or for two dollars cash we will send the tri-weekly News and Hf.rald till the same date. A prize of five dollars will be givj to the party who sends us the greatest number of subscribers at the fnr^o-rtincr r>rovided the success -*""7 i ful contestant shall send at least ten names. This to stand until the 15th of June next. In the Tkial Justice Court.?On Friday the case of the State vs. Joseph Bird, charged with breach of contract, was heard. He was found not guilty. The case of the State vs. Os Yongue, charged with assault with intent to kill was called on last Saturday. The defendant waived a preliminary examination and gave bond for his appear ance at the next term of the Court of Sessions. On the same day the State vs. Silas Paulding was tried and he was found not guilty. County Normal Institute. ? Dr. Boyd has received a letter from the school commissioner of Chester county suggesting that instead of having the Normal Institute in each county, as Drovided bv the school law. that the four counties. Chester, Fairfied, York and Lancaster, combine and hold a union institute for white teachers at Chester. By such a union a larger fund would be secured, and the session of the institute made larger. The question is, would the teachers of the adjoining counties go to Chester? The Board of examiners are holding the matter under consideration. A Normal Institute for colored teathers will be held at "VVinnsboro this summer. The Supposed Incendiary .?William Shuley has. been arrested and lodged in jail, charged with the attempted incendiarism of Monday. The evidence against him, however, is not very conclusive. The accascd lived with Mr. Sugenheimer, and it was thought that the first fire, which originated in the plunder-room of Mr. Sugenheimer, was the result of his carelessness with his pipe, and Mr. Doty, whose property was in dangerous proximity, did some plain talking to him. tie was accused or firing the stables out of revenge, which he denied of course, but failed to give a very coherent account of his whereabouts during the interval of the first and the second fire. He is a boy about eighteen years old. A Pestilent Imposter.?TV'e learn one "Doctor" Diana Sumter, a negro claiming to be from Lancaster has set up as a physician near Flint Hiil in this county, ana is now "practising" to tne great terror of the colored people in that community. She offers the lizard it is said as a panacea for all the evils with which her race is afflicted, and th*1 negroes far and near are thoroughly frightened at the power of conjuration which they are persuaded that she possesses. Her charges for services rendered are paid, as the story goes, * i- J 4 - very promptly, ana witnout regaru iu homestead exemptions. She has be* come so troublesome in the neighborhood that complaint has been made here to Trial Jnstice Neil, and he has issued his warrant for her arrest. stii-l Ahead.?On Sunday, May 17, the celebrated Atlantic Coast Line changed their schedule between Charleston and Columbia so as to leave Charleston at 7.25 a. m., instead of 7 a. m., and arrive at Columbia at 10.55 a. m., making the ruu of 137 miles in three hoars and a half. This is the fastest train in the. South. This line, so celebrated for keeping up with the times and providing-for the comforts of its patrons, has substituted for the ordinary ladies' cir, on the Charleston run, elegantly equipped parlor-dining cars, without extra charge for a seat, on which you can get a first-class luncheon or meal at a moderate-cost. This effort to please the traveling public should be encouraged, and We advise our readers to take this route when thev visit the "City by the Sea".

York. The St. Louis Range.?Attention is called to the advertisement of the Wrought Iron Range Co., ofSt. Lonis, Mo., which will be found in another column. Perhaps the best evidence of the merit of this article is found in the following, which we take from the Sumter Advance: Sumter, S. C., May 9, 18S5. We, the undersigned, citizens of Sumter, S. C., take pleasure in recommending the representatives of the Wrought Iron Range Co., of St. Louis, Mo., to the favorable consideration oi the good people of our neighboring towns and counties. They have made this city their headquarters for the past four months, for ihe sale and distribution of Wrought] Iron "Home Comfort" Cooking Ranges during which time they have sold over j * U KimrlpA/? 1 r\ AI1I' bUl^g liUilUl^U lit VIH All* UAVVtAWbV WW , tion of country, and had dealings with the very best of our people.

Memorial Day.- Another Memorial Day has passed and an appropriate tribute has been once more paid here to the memory of our fallen soldiers. At 5 o'clock p. m., on Monday evening a large crowd had assembled in front of the Court House and around the monument which was beautifully decorated with flowers. A procession . /-ineicfincr nf thp. Hordon Li?ht Iifiant rv, and a line of carriages having formed on the College green, were marched down to this point. The guns were stacked on the speakers stand and the exercises were opened with prayer by the Rev. G. P. Watson. Gen. Bratton was then introduced to the audience. He delivered an elo! ouent address, paying especial cotnpli | inent to the heroism and fidelity of the Southern ladies. He was listened to throughout with undiminished interest. At the close of his remarks, prayer was offered by the Rev. John I. Chalmers and the crowd dispersed the special committees repairing 4o the different church-yards to decorate the graves. Memorial Day will be observed by our people until time has tnken all seeming reproach out of forgetful ness. Personal.?Miss Alice Barkley, of Nicolasville, Ky., who has been spend ing- some time with relatives in town, returned hpme on Friday. Miss Barkley made many friends during her stay here who parted with her with much regret. "VVc wish her a safe and pleasant trip, and that .she may soon coine again. Mr. D. V.

They are cordially invited to return. Mr. Q. D. "Williford returned ou Sunday from Lexington, Kv., where for the past two months he, with Mr. H. C. Elliott, has been in attendance upon the Commercial College of that place. Mr. Elliott will return to-day. J. M. McMaster, Esq., of the Columbia bar, was in town last Saturday on j professional business. Messrs. J. H. Rion, A. S. Douglass i and J. E. McDonald, of the Winns-1 boro bar, left on Monday evening for j Columbia, to attend the Supreme Court. Wc have been much pleased to receive a call from Mr. Benny Salinger, the superintendent of tbe Central Newspaper Union, of Philadelphia, Pa. Mr. Salinger is an affable and agreeable gentleman, and he makes friends wherever he goes. ? ' | A Bold Attempt at Incendiarism. | ?The alarm of fire was given on Wednesday at 12 o'clock a. m. A small plunder room in the rear of Mr. Sugenheimer's saloon, near the store and livery stables of Messrs. W. R. Doty & Co., was the immediate object of solicitude. The flames were soon extinguished and it was generally agreed that the fire was the result of an accident. Later in the day however, at 2b o'clock p. m., the. alarm was again sounded; it was discovered that the large -stables of Messrs. Doty & Co., on fire. Fortunately the discovery was made before the fire had made much headway, and again the trouble was soon ended. But the fact DerhaDs most to be resrretted is, that the circumstances in this connection leave the idea of accidents out of the question. There is no room for them in the horse troughs of the unfrequented rear end of these stables. The fire in the first and last instance was a diabolical attempt at incendiarism. It may be said that it is unreasonable to suppose that one intending crime would choose the middle of the day for its perpetration, and that a second attempt would be made within two hours after the first had proved nnsuccessfol, but to this the stereotyped answer comes up that crime is always illogical. It is to be hoped that the guilty scoundrel may be apprehended and punished. There is no criminal against whom society has fewer resources for protection than against the sneaking emisfrnv>li oai ? vi w?v iwfcVM. The Entertainment To say that thp entertainment at Boag's Opera House on Tuesday night was a success would scarcely convey our meaning, in as much as the word j is given to some ambiguity. But to j say that the fullness of the audience I puts its financial success beyond ques tion is to affirm a fact patent to evenone; and if the continued rounds of applause which greeted the rendition of each successive piece may be taken to mean anything, we may certainly ? I: ^ * .. j* it. say that tne dramatic success 01 me venture reached also the level ofexpections of its most sanguine promoters. The performers were doubtless conscious of the fact before hand that they would play to an audience, "who if not versed in the technics of the art of music, were at least sufficiently cultivated to distinguish the goou from the bad, and who have been Jong given over to extreme canucr in criticism. Artists who undertake to entertain the people of this town must reach the level of success; mediocrity, is endured with silent toleration, and the least jugglery; the least exhibition of want of capacity, is mercilessly hissed from the stage. It must therefore have been a source of gratification apd encouragement to the amatuers on Tuesday night to be reminded at every | step of the programme that the sympathy of the House was theirs. We cannot undertake to say which was the best piece, or which was most artistically rendered as the traditional variety of tastes among mankind, for which the Baptist deacon was so thankful, would at once ass... t itself. We may say however that the "Mellican Man" was received with especial favor, and the "Catholic hymn" whose sombre eloquence reaches "the height of sublimity" was rendered with splendid effect. The realistic representative which accompanied this piece was also a pleasing surprise to those who have heard and admired it before. The concert opened at 8? o'clock and closed at 102 o'clock p. m. The thanks of the community are due to the miu strel troupe for a very pleasant entertinament. THE COLORED PRESBYTERIANS. Messrs. Editors: Permit me to say through your paper that the Colored Presbyterian Church is nearly completed. "VVe hope to have it fully completed by the middle of June, at which time we want to dedicate it to the service of our Lord, and we cordially invite all the white friends to be present with us. The Rev. S. P. Hood, of Beaufort, S. C., will preach the dedicatory sermon. B. L. Glenn. May 15 th, 1885. ITE3TS FROM HOREB. Since our last communication the mad dogs have been ranging and pneumonia ragingiu this section. Our farmers think that winter is lingering too long in the lap of spring. The nights are cool and cotton looks sick. Good stands are reported and some have commenced "chopping out". UJd corn tdat nas oeen worsea out looks well. Mr. Joel Ashford has a field that is hard to oeat. The wheat crop is fair, but the oats crop will be almost an entire failure. This will be a heavy loss to our farmers, but we think the loss will be heavier on the horses and mules, as they need all they can get to give them strength to carry the heavy mortgages with which most of them are loaded. We regret to learn that our old and oetoomsil frionf} Mr. Thomas MeKin stry is very ill at the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. "W. P. Gibson. Onr community has been called upon to mourn the loss of one of its oldest and most useful citizens, Mr. D. Y, Camak. He died of pneumonia on the morning of the 8th inst. b. ITEMS FROM HOREB. Ifoev-fe 7TrJifnm' As snmfi matters of interest have transpired in and around Horeb since your correspondent (Senex) wrote you, and he has failed to keep you posted, will you allow me to jot down a few items? By the way, what has become of the old mas, and what does he mean by styling himself thus? I think I am acquainted with the gentleman, and when last in his company was not impressed with his ancient appearance; but perhaps he feels old now, as I learn his wife has left him and gone back to her lather, and, furthermore, took the children with her. Bat to the point: On the 27ih ult. Mr. I. D. Griffin, who had for years been sorely afflicted at intervals, passed away from this world of affliction and was buried in Bethel chnrch-yard on Tuesday, the 28th, the Rev. J. K. McCain officiating at the funeral. There Uaa^ rrrfA /\fK At* ir? fViie imYC IUV V/IUWI u^aiiAO *?? vuio immediate vicinity?one a little negro girl, the other an aged and respected negro man?Osmond Burrel?for years daring tbe days of slavery a faithful servant in the Mann family. He died at the old family homstead on Sunday, the 3i*d inst., and the number of white people at his burial testify to the esteem in which he was held in the community. The funeral services were utjnuuuicu in o. ?ci j cvicuiu uuu impressive manner by the Rev. Mr. Edwards, of the A. At. E. Church. How true that death is no respe'ctor of persons. The young, the middle-aged aud the old, the white and the colored, one by one cross the river and are seen <-vn tKic nn mnrfl. Tn this nonnfifl tion allow me to say I have jast heard of the death of Judge W. R. Robertson, and panse a moment to pay a silent tribute to his memory. "We still have some sick ones who deserve and are receiving the kindly attentions of their families and neighbors. Uncle McKinstry is still quite feeble: Mrs. M. E. Smith is somewhat improved, Dot stm connnea 10 oea; Mr. David Y. Camak is quite low with pleuro-pneumonia, and Mrs. Martha Elkin is quite sick at the residence of her brother-in-law, Mr. C. E.

Farmer are generally pretty well through planting, except bottom corn, which will be planted during this month. There is quite an increase in the acreage of upland corn, and it is looking well. There was a dime reading at the Fairfield Circuit Parsonage last night in the interest of the "Woman's MisoiAnom? Romofr IV/*<&**. J IL/WVdVVJ Having given you the sober and serious view of things in our midst for some time past, let me now relate an occurrence of a ludicrous, if not ridiculous character. A few Saturday nights ago there were heard in this immediate vicinage shouts of "Hang him! Full him down I Kill him! Oh, father! Oh, my brother! Hold him!" etc., with ever and anon bursts of laughter, intermingled with cries of "Help! help! murder!" and the like. Your correspondent was asleep at the time and heard nothing of the medley till aroused by some of onr frightened neighbors, bolting into the piazza and raising the alarm, that some one was beinsr lvnched, whereupon he arose, robbed his eyes, looked around and listened, and knowing that the dear frightened women and children would not consent, he mustered up courage enough to propose to go out and reconnoitre and perchance find out the cause of the disturbance, but not being hard to dissuade from his rash proposal, returned to bed and awaited the coming of the bright Sunday morning's sun to reveal the feet that there had been a negro log-rolling in a neighbor's new ground near by. Strange time for a log-rolling in a Christian community! Eh! But no more strange than true. " And it was not at a very early linnr Rafnrdav mcrht either. P. S.?Have just learned that Mr. David Y.
