besides the new office will be more |
convenient to most parties.

Trial Justice Cathcart was kept busy i
Dn "Wednesday. James Sawjer was h
up before him and given a prelimina- j ]
ry heariug on a charge of larceny of ! j
jrain from the field. He was bound i i
i>ver for trial at the next term of the t
Uourt. The case of the State vs. Sam .
Sawyer came up next ancl suffered the <
fate. The last case for a hear- ;
ng was the State vs. Tom Aiken cka'rgsd
with carrying codcealed weapons. .
He was also bound over for trial at (
:he next term.
Death.?We regret to learn of the ,
ieath of Mr. Walter C. Yongue. Mr. <
Yongue was brother-in-law of Captain
Boyles, Judge of Probate of Fairfield
;ounty, and the youngest son of Mrs. 1
Frances Yongue, also of this county.
He had been attending the Leesville
Academy, and the first intimation the (
family had of his illness was the an- .
nouncement of his death, and a tele- ;
gfram stating that the body would be
brought up on Friday's train. Mr. '
Yongue was in his nineteenth year. ;
We extend to the bereaved family our
sympathy in their trouble.
Another Tramp. ?On last Tuesday
night another tramp applied to Mr. :
Gilbert for a night's lodging in the
town hotel. He was accordingly given
quarters for the night, after Mr. Gilbert
had observed closely a bag which
he said contained his clothes. The
next morning when his door was
opened, Mr. Gilbert noticed that his
clothes bag had grown considerably
larger daring the night, and an iirvestigation
revealed the fact that ?ne of
the blankets had in some mysterious
way gotten into his clothes bag. He
was after the examination sent on his 1
way rejoicing.
Public Sales.?On Monday last,
being sales-day, the Clerk of the Court
of Common Pleas sold the followingmentioned
property:
In the case of Gooding; & Elliott vs.
John Lee, a tract or 2U acres, oounaea
by lands of April Russell and others,
bought by Mrs. Lillie E. McDonald,
for $125.
In the case of A. F. Raff vs. S. J.
Joiner, Administrator, and Others, a (
tract of 224 acres, bounded bv lands of
John Cooper, Sr., and others, bought
by A. F. Ruff, for $200.
In the case of Margaret M. Yongue
vs. Nancy Yongue and Others, a tract
of 442 acres, bounded by. lands of
R. M. Stevenson and others, to Mrs.
Nancy Yongue, for $3,090.
Mr. J. A. Turkelt, as executor of
the ..will of Turner Turkett, sold a
tract of land, containing 265 acres,
founded by lands of J. Russell Black
and others, to Jacob Frick, for $1,025.
The Sheriff sold no land, but sold,
as agent for different parties, quite a
number of mules.
Circulating Lkjrary.? Mrs. G. L.
Morgan, general agent of the Franklin
Square Library Company, of Louisville
Ky., is now in "Winnsboro, for
the purpose of organizing a Circulating
Library among the resident! of
the town. The plau is to procure fifty
members, who pay a fee of one dollar
each. For the sum of fifty dollars,
made up in this way, the Company
propose to furnish seventy books, to
be selected from their catalogue. This
catalogue embraces works of the standard
authors, and in many cases one
book contans several stories or other
matter of good reading. For two

FrAKK LkSI.IH'S rol'CLAK MONTHLY
for December opens with a very timely
article called "Another Bit ot Turkey."
It has no reference to Thanksgiving,
but to the annexation of Iloumclia by
the Prince of Bulgaria. This unexpected
seizure of another bit of Turkey,
and the events that have followed, |
required explanations. In tuis article
Mr. Oscanvan, formerly Turkish consul-general,
thoroughly versed in the
system of Oriental rule, gives a clear
view of the Province and its people,
as well as of Bulgaria. "The Shakers
in Niskayuna" is a sketch by a lady of
that curious community accompanied
by a fine series of illustrations. "The
Story of Napoleon Bonaparte's Divorce
from the Empress Josephine" is told
by Noel Ruthven in a way to excite
the reader's warmest sympathy with
the amiable lady whom a husband's
ambition compelled to descend from
her throne. Waller S. Bailtie describes
and illustrates a little known
part of our hemisphere in his attractive
"Glimpsesof South Brazil"; while
Lieutenant Winder, of the Navy, carries
us back to the days of Robinson
Crusoe, in his "Rescue of Trinity's
Crew"?the story- of the crew of an
American vessel lost on. a rarely visited
island in the.Antarctic Ocean.
Ackroyd's scientific article on "Whirlpools
and Whirlwinds" explains the
origin of those deadly forces in nature
which so frequently compel us to
record their destructive ravages. The
lighter elemeuts in the magazine, the
fine illustrations, the stories of Mrs. j
E. B. Duftey, C. M. Boutelle, R. C.
Myers, Laurence Germaine, with the |
poetic and other miscellany, make the

FAIRFIELD GKASITE.
The Opinion of its Superior Qualities,
Given by an Expert.
Oar granite industry is looming up.
A. very large number of hands are
now busily engaged at the "Winnsboro
Granite Quarries," owned by
Messrs. Haskell, Woodward & Rion.
We have always supposed this granite
to be very fina, and have heard that
' * J iU.
sxperis nave pronouuceu uiw muuc w
be the best in America. The following
letter, written by the lion. Thos.
Gr. Clemson, a graduate of the Polytechnic
School of France, and the only
American who ever filled a professor's
2hairin the School of Mines of France,
md besides for many years very high
Authority ou all mines and quarries in
America and Europe, confirms us in
Dur opinion that Fairfield has a very
valuable industry in its irrauite.
The letter was written on receipt of
a, paper weight sent him by his friend
Uol. Rion:
Fort IIill, 26th Nov. 1885.
Dear Colonel: I have yours with
the beautiful paper weight of granite.
It is not often that you meet in nature
with a variety of that ancient rock in
which the different minerals are so
equally divided as in this specimen.
If all of your rock presents such properties,
you may look upon yourself as
being possessed of a material that is
indestructible with all the natural
acting agents as far as we know, which
are defiant. Usually the felspar found
in granite (one of. the constituents) is
unlike this, destructible to the atmospheric
agents. The two others (quartz
and amphibole) are also indestructible
in (his specimen. I donbt if a more
indestructible material could be found
than you have in this material. Your
polished granite must go into use for
house furniture; indeed, I do not see
for what use it could be placed, in
which it would be misplaced. My
people on seeing it said?How beautiful
for covering to bureaus, bath tubs,
tile for flooring, ad infinitum
Yours.
T. G, Clemsox.
FROJf MORRIS CREEK.
The stillness and quiet that formerly j
reigned about Granite Hill no longer ;
exists, bnt have given place to the
sound of the saw and hammer, and
the constant clicking and clattcring of
drills aud dressing chisels; and this
from early dawn to twilight gray. The
Nashville Company have gone to work
in earnest. They are preparing our
fine blue granite forbu;lding a government
house in Louisville, Ky.?the
building to serve as a custom-house
^nd postoffice. Mr. Stewart is here
himself, and has, as I learn, more than
thirty persons already at work. If
our people will not develop our own
resources we welcome with pleasure
those who will come and do this for
us. The Palmetto State will not only
take pleasure in contributing to her
younger sister such an ornament for
her noblest city, bnt will also take
pleasure in having in the far Northwest
such a standing advertisement of the
excellency and beauty of her building
stone. Thus while our section of
Fairfield may not boast of the fertility
of her lands, she may boast of the
excellency of her granite, perhaps the
best in the United States.
But I promised in my last to say
something in regard to our schools, or
rather iu regard to diverse views in
respect to some of their regulations. It
would be well for our people generally
to have a clearer understanding of the
operations of our public school-system,
especially as it would lead to less
caviling and to more uniformity of
action. Some, for iustance, have as
serted that the trustees of our schools
have the right to appoint teachers for
them, irrespective of the will of the
patrons; that the latter have no voice
in saying who shall teach their children:
making the children during
school age the property, not of the
parents, but of the State, just as the
laws of Lycurgus did the Spartan
youth. I have heard others affirm,
with equal confidence, that the patrons
alone had the right to select a teacher,
the trustees having nothing to do with
?^a^i
it. How is this? Another apple of
discord. Does the same grade certificate
command the same uniform C".V

bis pay? Or are teachers
who have ten scholars paid the same
as those who have thirty or more?
Now, Messrs. Editors, as few have a
r-nnv of the school law. and as vonr
paper is extensively read in ?or county,
I hope it will be your pleasure to
oblige many by putting these questions
at rest. I believe it would be wise to
enforce our school laws uniformly,
and to the letter, so long as they remain
in force; and if they are bad
laws, unworthy of being strictly enforced,
let them" be repealed.

?"We don't have to recommend
Parker's Hair Balsam but once,"
writes Mr. C. A. Burger, druggist, of
Liberty, N. Y. "After that it stands
on its record." It stops falling hair,
restores original color, softness and
gloss. Exceptionally clean, prevents
dandruff. ' *
