The Colored Firemen.?We are informed that the Winnsboro Hook & TndHar ("Vmrnanv left the Chester! k Company thirty seconds behind in the A firemen's contest at that place on Frim day. "We congratulate them on their k success. What is worth doing at all is B worth doing well.

At a meeting of the Chester Disvision of the Sixth Regiment Survivors on the 16th inst., the proposition to hold the next annual meeting1 on the battlefield of Seven Piue3 was considered. A resolution was adopted inviting' among others the Gordon Light Infantry. of this place to jain the surYivors on the proposed excursion. An Erroneous Impression.?It has f been reported here that Mr. Zeb. Mobley, of Johnson county, Texas, was not re-elected to his office of "assessor. The report has occasioned mnch regret among the numerous friends of Mr. .v Mobley in this county and we are , therefore glad to announce that it is not true. We learn from private correspondence that he was re-elected by a handsome majority. Come Ox.?The Kock Hill Herald says it will never do for the boys of the base ball clnb of that town to show |f- the white feather, and advises them to come down here and see Winnsboro at & their earliest convenience. We will be glad to see them; wotrid like to see our boys thrashed out anyhow, and besides they are anxious to know how they would feel under such circumstances themselves.

She was found JPfeuiltv aud sentenced to pay a fine of ten dollars and costs or be imprisoned m in jail fifteen days. Fancy Work.?To build a miniature ship under favorable circumstances is clearly a righ nice job, but to constrnct such a toy in a bottle, without breakit ing the botde, is certainly an astoDish* ing performance. We are assured that Tsroe o ^ ? *- - ** wiu i<ao a amusement 01 the late W. B. Benson, deceased. Those who desire to see some of his handiwork in the bottle which is at once a carious puzzle,and amodcl of mechanical skill may call on Sheriff McCarley. A Youthful Ckdiixal.?Moses JacksoD, a negro boy about fourteen 1 years of age, was arrested here on W ~~ Wednesday by Sheriff McCarley. He c * : 'V:,: ifv " v # < > ' - - ' ' '? Js ' . ik is charged with stealing money from a citizen of Colombia. He admits that it did come into his possession, but says that he found it. Deputy Sheriff McGuirc came up for him on Thursday. j The statement of the News ana courier that Sheriff McCarley arrested him in Columbia was incorrect. The Colored Baxd.?The colored band of town have received their now instruments, and have organized by electing the following members: President.?S. D. "Wade. Tenor?W. M. Gamble. Tenor?W. M. Matterson. Alto?S. D. Palmer. Alto?J. Likes. j B Flat?G. W. Williams. E Cornet?J. II. Mack. E Cornet?K. F. Caldwell. We are requested by them to express their thanks to the public for material aid in procuring instruments. | A Chapter of Accidents.?Mr. j J. M. Elliott, Sr., while operating a j planing machine on Thursday, received | a painful cut on his hand from the chisel. The wound was dresstjv Dr. E. W. Aiken. The Doctor was called the next moment to attend the little daughter of Mr. R. T. Matthews, who had fallen from a swing, receiving a severe cut in the face. Mr. A. M. Timms, of this place, while ont driving on last Wednesday i evening, was thrown from his buggy | aud had his arm fractured. The injury ! rhough painful has not disabled him entirely. He is up and about. Deaths.?Mr. 1). H. Johnston, of Ansel, La., died on the 16th of June, at the advanced age of sixty-three years. He was a native of this county and removed from here in the year 1859. * . The iufant son of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Hall, Jr., aged abont one year, died on the 30th ultimo. The infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Harden, of this place, aged about seven and a half months, died at Lancaster on the 1st inst. The infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. Samuels, aged about eleven months died on Tuesday evening of the 7th inst. All of these bereaved parencs have the sympathy of many friends. A Wide-Awake School Commissioner.?Any one who will walk into the office of our worthy school com missioner will now sec a splendid collection of books which is every day accumulating. He explains that it occurred to him some time ago that a teachers library might be established here without money, and accordingly he wrote off recklessly enough to booksellers and publishing companies asking donations. His^ success has been much greater than he anticipated. We suggest that books would no doubt be gladly received from private individual who might wish to contribute If our teachers profit by the example of their official lead there can be no; lack of interest in the schools. Breaking Arrest.?Ned. Caldwell was brought before Trial Justice CathMpt nn SafnrHav rharced with hipfamv. w w" O"" 9 JWhile comiug to town he fouud an opportunity to break arrest and availed himself of the same very promptly. After runding about half a mile he was overtaken [by the constable who decided it would seem to pick him up without bloodshed if possible. The prisoner didn't appreciate the kinduess, however, for as he found himself a second time in the clutches of the law, he proceeded to bite and scratch something after the fashion of a hyena. A little well directed pummeling from the officer brought him to his senses and they resumed their journey. He was committed by the trial justice to await trial at the next fowm of fhp f!nnrf. of fi-er.erfll Sessions. The Charlotte Institute.--We would call attention to the advertisement of th? Charlotte Female Institute, published in another column. This is one of the best colleges for young ladies to be found in the South. We think we cannot do better than to reproduce the following, written byProf. R. Means Davis, while he was connected with The News and Herald: "The Rev. Wm. R. Atkinson, the Principal of the Charlotte Institute for Young Ladies, ,graduated with distinguished honors at the South Carolina College, and since then he has assiduously devoted himself to the acquisition of knowledge. It was the good ionune 01 xtie eauor 01 tius paper iu eDjoy the benefit of Mr. Atkinson's instruction, and he can bear witness to his ability and thoroughness as an instructor! Mr. Atkinson has been successfully engaged with several institutions of high grade. With his present corps ot assistants he offers great inducements to persons wishing to perfect the education of their daughters." m Frank Leslie's Scxday Magazine for August is a bright and sparkling summer number. The leading article is "American Missionaries in Mexico," anent whom some hard things are put down. If the writer, Emily Pierce, is sure of her facts, it is not a creditable record. Another of the series ot Uhnst s Parables, and two more of the Sacred Musicians, appear in this number. "The First Missions in California," with its illustrations, is a very interesting article; and "From Canterbury to Dover," by G. A. Davis, a delightful bit of description. Dr. Talmage's sermon is on "Left-handed Men." There are three pages of music cL /oted to a setting of the Te Deum, by D. E. Hervey. A readable article on Lowell is accompanied with his portrait and copious extracts from his poems.\There is also an article on John Ruskin, with n. nortrflif Thp si TRihlp. History" is devoted to King Solomon, and brings the subject to the end of his reign. The eccentric Georgia evangelist, the Rev. Sam Jones, is given a portrait and biographical sketch; and there are also portraits of Dean Smith, of Canterbury, and Bishop Ellicott, both of the Bible Revision Companies. The two seslal stories?"Love's Harvest," j oy B. L. Faijeon, and "What She J * ~ / Z9 Made of Her Life," by Lydia Hoyt j Farmer?are continned, and the shorter articles are abundant and attractive.

Eion informs us that the train leaves "Winnsboro at 3 p. m., of "Wednesday the 5th August, stopping at Chester and other points for Survivors. The train arrives at Seven Pines at 8 a. m., of Thursday the 6th August, returning that evening to Kichinond, where the train stops over foi twenty-four hours to enable the Survivors to "do" Richmond. The Regiment of "Buck Tails," from Central Pennsylvania, -will I meet our boys, but in a far different spirit from that in which I they met at Dranesville and Seven ' Pines. It is expected that the Gordon Tiic/hf, Tnfn,ntrv. of this olace. and O " J ' x ' the Lee Light Infantry, of Chester, will also join the excursion. The Sandy Elver Band will furnish music for the occasion. It is Said That public office is a public trust,; That when an official rattles in his office he does not fill the offii-e; That the trial justice courts of town have not been very busy this week; That the Gordons will acccpt the invitation of the Sixth Regiment survivors; Tl-i 4'.,..,nn..c l,o,m iiiilt MUtlJC VI UUl iai tutio ituvg I planted cotton on lands tVom which ! they have recently cut grain; That a party of gentlemen of town will go over to Broad River in a week or two on a fishing expedition. ? Young America. The early development of genius is characteristic of this country. It manifests itself in various ways; and all of this is perhaps natural. The country is new, the aveunes to wealth and distinction are open to all, and the dogma of order and more conservative communities that wisdom and frosty locks are inseparable, does not prevail. On the contrary, the dictum of the Latin logiciaus that the exception proves the rule is admitted in all of its entirety. it not unirequenuy nappens ior example, a member of comparative youth leads the Congress of the United States; and young men are daily seen coping with their venerable and distinguished contemporaries in all of the varied professions. The younger Pitt it is true, at the age of twenty-six was prime minister of England; and his disiiuguised father, the illustrious Chatham was at the same age, the proudest figure in the British Parliament. But these are solitary exceptions in English history, which upon the whole presents a striking contrast to the unrestraining customs of American life. Here the incentives to exertion are manifold, and the contest for the highest places is limited only by the law of co-ordinations between the capacity to success and the ambition to covet success. It is the ears of precocity that catch up the temptation which greatness whispers in the hearing of man. Young America may theu congratulate himself upon each recurring anniversary of the Republics birth. Here he has beat dowu the barriers to his advancement, by a positive de _x? ?~_il- TT~ muiisirauuii ux wurtu. nc un* nciu the coafidence of his fellows for more than twooentnries and their faith in his capacity has crystalized into a ruling tradition of life. Assuredly, he may always close his eulogy upon the Iiepublie with the classic quotation from Roman patriotism esto vertetua. A Hard Fought Case. The case of the State vs. J. W. Cainack was heard before Trial Justice Douglass on Friday last. The warrant charged the defendant with enticing away a colored laborer under contract with another, but before trial, -.was amended so as to charge the kindred offense.of hiring a laborer, knowing such laborer to be under contract with another. A jury was empaneled to try the issue and the defendant appeared with counsel and pleaded not guilty. ' On empaneling the jury, counsel for defendant entered a challenge to the whole array and moved to quash the pannel on the ground that a tri^J by a jury of six as provided by statute is not such atrial by jury as is guaranteed to the accused under the provisions of the constilntion of 1868. The motion was overruled and the case proceeded to trial. The State introduced the testimony of several witnesses and among other things proved that the prosecuting witness on the 31st day of December, A. D., 1884 bargained with a certain colored woman for her services and- the services of her children (whenever he should call for snch services) during : the year 1885 and moved the family en bis place. At snch times as these parties were not needed by prosecuting witness they were at liberty to work for whom they pleased. The State closed and the defense declined to offer any testimony resting upon the ground that the Slate had failed to make out its case; that the evidence failed to estab lish the relation 01 ianaiora ana Irborer and that the contract was void under the statute of frauds. Tbe jury retired and after a few moments deliberation returned a verdict of guilty. Counsel Ifor defendant made a motion in arrest of judgment which .was overruled and defendant gave notice of appeal to the Court of General Sessions. The case excited a good deal of I interest in the neighborhood and was larorplv attended. , 9 \ . ^ ^ A. CABD. I Messrs. Editors: Will you allow me to announce through your columns that the Rev. C.

Messrs Editors: Of course the "cold wave" has readied you, and has been much enjoyed. Your "city" people can rejoice over the delightful nights without the ever recurring thought, "but this is bad for cotton!" The general fear here is that crops will suffer from the continued cool nights. The grain crop, wheat especially, wsa a failure iu this immediate neighborhood, and some are leeding wheat to stock, thinking the quantity made ~ a LI does 1101 warrant toe iruuuie uj imcouiug-, etc. One gentleman mad* seventeen bushels 011 the same land that produced seventy-five bushels last year. Another measured twelve bushels from the identical field which yielded fifty in 1884. "Death the reaper still is reaping." On Monday last, Mrs. "Win. Blair was buried at Salem, and on the following day Mrs. John Goree was interred at the same place. Both were members ?.t* Vi-pfilnterian Church. In *omc respeels their cases were parallel.

From the present outlook we may I reasonably expect a bountiful yield of | cotton and corn. Will call the atlen- j tion of your readers to a neglected, but j all important topic in ray next. c. a. s. PICXIC NEAR BIDGEWAT. Messrs. Editors: It was our happy privilege on Friday, the 3rd inst., to attend a picnic given by the patrons and friends of Mount Hope School to the pupils of said school. This school is located near Ridgeway, and presided over by Miss H. E. Thomas, whose reputation as a faithful, conscientious and efficient teacher is known, not only to the citizens of Fairfield, but throughout the State. This school numbers forty-five pupils. Early in the day the friends and pupils assembled. The hospitality cf the family, which is noted, was shown by throwing open the doors of the residence, which was occupied by the older persons. The voting people filled the basement and yard, amusing them* selves in different ways. Croquet appeared to be the favorite game. The little folks had a play called by them "Wild Irishman," which they appeared to enjoy hugely, and which was enjoyed by some of the seniors who witnessed it. At the appointed hour the pupils were formed into line by Maj. C. E. T. marched down in military style to the table, which was placed under tljc large oaks well protected from the burning rays of the noonday sun and which groaned under the weight of the many nice things prepared by the good house-wives of the vicinity. On reaching" the table, the order was given to file to the right and left. The pnpils arranged, a blessing asked, and the order given to help "yourselves. This order was promptly obeyed by all parties. Ice lemonade was in demand which fried Mc knows so weli how to prepare, and which he served up so lavishly. Dinner over, the party scattered* in different directions, amusing themselves in different ways, and left when forced to do so by the evening sun, which warned them that it was time to start for their respective places of abode. This picnic will be long remembered by Ajt Invited Guest. TAKING OTHER FOLKS' PAPERS. Messrs. Editors: Your highly valned paper is regularly received here and is read with much interest; not onl^ because it is oar conuty paper, but for the reason that it contains the best, latest and most interesting news. While this is all truejwe have one seri* ous objection to urge against it, to wit, it is the too^ easy snbject of involuntary loan. This objection is of almost Universal application to newspapers. The paying Subscriber hardly ever has an opportunity of reading its contents until it suits' the convenience of some sly, habitually, thievish newspaper borrower to return it to him. If there is one being just a little more low, degraded and detestable than another it is this involuntary borrower. By "involuntary borrower" I mean the man who geU your newspaper from your office in your absence, who never allows you the privilege of reading VUUi" uwu papct uuui uu li?s lliuiuu^u" ly devoured its contents. Oh! for some chosen curse, some hidden thunder of heaven, red with uncommon wrath, to blast the wretch who gets his daily information from his neighbor's stolen newspaper. Such a man would cheat the devil (newspaper), and if possible would steal from his God. "He who steals my purse-steals trash, But he who robs me of my newspaper Takes that which enlightens him not (bemmcp tno Tripsin V" These fiends incarnate are around here, and whenever The News and Herald or the News and Courier comes in the absence of the owner they pounce upon them like harpies. Please inform us through your columns how to rid ourselves of these nuisances . Tell us how to accomplish it successfully and we will send up the largest club from any postoffice in the county.

Editors: There are sotfre recent occurrences at the County Poor House, to which I think it ray duty as o />;fi-Toii *r? mII fh? nftpntinn of the public. It seems that Mr. James G. Heron, one of the County Commissioners, lias undertaken to manage thing* at the Poor House, after his own fashion. On Thursday last lie was there, behaving in a boisterous and meddlesome manner, and went so far as to use violent and insulting language in the presence of Mrs. McGrady, the matron of the institution. Upon Mr. McGrady's requesting him not to talk in that way to his wife, Mr. Heron flew in a rage, and undertook to discharge Mr. McGrady from his place as Keeper. Mr. and Mrs. McGrady have left It is due to Mr. Heron to say that he claims that Mr. ; McGrady left of his own accord. If I Ir ?e A/\wi?AAf AAitfitinl t* ha Ann sa*i11 WUiO iO UUill \ IIV WUV/ Vyvlll blame him for trying to escape the ii salts being given him by Mr. Heron. After Mr. McGrady left it seems that Mr. Heron took charge of the Poor House himself. He came to Wiinisboro early on Friday morning, bringing with "him the keys to the provisionrooms. In consequence of this proceeding the inmates had to go without breakfast and dinner?getting nothing to eat from Thursday evening to Friday afternoon. Asl understand this matter, Messrs. Editors, it seems to me that Mr. Heron ? ! U?U1 UU U1UIU UUiilUiltV IU UlfeCliHr^C Mr. McGrady. or to manage the Poor House himself, than any other citizen of the county. I hope the County Commissions as. a body will at once make a searching investigation into thecir cnmstances which have caused so good a mail, and so faithful an official, as | Mr. McOradv is, to leave his po.-t, and leave ihin.s in such eunlu-iun at the Poor F^ocse.
