Ear Association*.?At 5 the meeting of the South Carolina Bar i Association held in Columbia this * week Chief Justice Cooly, of Michi gan, delivered the annual address, which was a masterly effort. The annual dinner was served on Thursday * at the Hotel Jerome, and is said to have been a magnificent spread.

A Christmas Trek.?There? will be a Christmas tree for the children of Winnsboro in the Thespian Hall probably on Christmas Eve night. Several ladies in town have the matter under consideratiou, and will no doubt be a grand success. It is proposed to have i Santa Claus arrayed in all' the gor- j geonsness of his winter apparel to j j deliver the prizes ar.d presents to the ! lucky ones. An admission fee of twenty-live cents will be charged which gets also a. ticket entitling the holder to the prize corresponding with the number on it. Any person who desires to !n:tke a nice present to some friend can have the present placed on the tree with the name of the one to whom it will be given and it wili be delivered. After expenses arc paid, the proceeds wili be given to Mount Zion for the purpose of making- a payment-on the piano. We shall speak more specifically in another issue. Reduction ok Salaries.?A bill has been introduced in the Legislature which provides for a reduction of the j salaries of all of all State officers, judges and solicitors. The salary of the Governor at present is not more than we think our highest official should be paid. True, it is more than the majority of men make, bnt he is ut an expense which other people arc not, and from the nature oi'the office the salary should rather be increased than reduced. The juda? s receive a salary of tiiiriy live hundred dollars per annum, but in considering this, wc fail to take inco consideration the fact that they are kept from home ? ~ * ' m r\ y\q\' tlioii* nv 1*1 U>L Ui LliU UUIV? pcfc* uivit on railroads and at their hotels, which is bound to cat a considerable hole in their salaries. The same is true of the solicitors. In hard times, such as we arc now experiencing, we find that there is a general desire for a horizontal reduction. PAItUOT AND MONKEY! SPECIAL DRIVE!! KANGAROO!!!

These articles among many oLhcrs consisted of crockery and parlor ornaments. When he went on Wednesday to have them removed some of them were missing;. Among ; the missing articles were the parlor ] ornaments and crockery. The thief; was very choice in his selections, and ! ordinary dinner sets were passed over ! and the best china plates and ice-crcam j flishes taken. Some silver parlor orria- j tnents were also secured. Out of two | pair of vases the costliest pair was taken. In fact only the best was molested. From a pecuniary point the loss was not so serious as it might }?iif nwnv. of thn articles nossessed - i peculiar value inasmuch as they were presents given to Prof. Wit'oe:o\v by lormer pupils and presents to { lis wife.

On the eve of December 2nd as Lwiligbt began to present her gentle appearance to warn all nature of the coining darkness, quite a pleasant :rowd gathered at the residence of Mr. Alfred Dunn, near Blythewood, to witness the marriage of their daughter.

Soon after the marriage our host announce that supper was read}*, all were cordially invited to partake of the viands which were so carefully prepared by our hostess. Atfer the "inner man" was perfectly satisfied, ail repaired to the parlor whore we were entertained will inuic and social chattering. At quite a late hour wc all returned to our homes there to seek repose for the remaining part of the llight. A i'Rl END. The Trial .Justice Bill. The following- bill relating to the trial justice system of the State, has been Introduced in the Legislature by Mr. Douglass, of Fairfield, an 1' by a unanimous vote ol" the judiciary com- j mittee has been favorably reported | upon: Section 1. That as soon as practicable after tne passage of this act it shall l><; the duty of the County Commissioners of the several counties of this Slate, and they arc hereby empowered and required, except in those counties where a division has heretofore been made under special enactment, to divide said counties into convenient and suitable Districts, to be known and designated as Judicial Districts, which said Judicial Districts shall correspond ii: number to the-number of Trial Justices to be appointed as is 1 hereinafter provided for, unci shall be numbered accordingly; and the said County Commissioners shall, through the Chairman of their Board,notify the 1 Governor oftheiraction'assoon asprac- : ticable after they have divided their J i respective counties into Judicial Dis- , tricts as provided for and required by j the terms of this Act. m Sec. 2. That as soon as practicable j( after having been notified of the division of the several counties of this State into Judicial Districts as is provided for in the first section of this < Act, it shall be the .duty ofthe.Gov- 1 ernor, and lie is hereby authorized, i empowered and required, to appoint 1 the following number of Trial Jnstices ( for the several counties. - ' I After this comes the section provid- j ing for the number in each county. r\P fliA TViol .Tnctinoc CA J HiXXj uaun vi jLnui <JV appointed shall be a resident of the Judicial District for which he is appointed and shall reside therein daring * the term of office; and in the District 1 embracing the county seat the Trial < Justice appointed shall reside at said t count} seat. 5 Sec. 3. That in all prosecutions of , civil actions triable by them, the said ' Trial Justices shall each have exclusive junction within the iimits of his.own. ^District; and in prosecution co^niza- 1 ble by the Courts of General Sessions * they shall each have jurisdiction 1 throughout the limits of the county: Provided, That prosecutions and civil actions may be removed from.;one " Trial Justice to another for the same - causes, and in the same manner, as is [1 now provided by law: And provided, |* further, That the Courts of Common Pleas shall hive concurrent jurisdic-1 tion in all civil actions triable by said I Trial Justices. Sec. 4. That each of said Trial Jus- j tices shall receive from the county, as j compensation for his services, aud in j j lieu of all costs and fees in criminal j ( cases, the followin-rsalaries per annum, ; payable at the cud of each quarter in ^ oqtial installments, upon the wan-ant | * of the County Commissioners, to wit: I In Judicial Districts outside of any j t incorporated city, town or village, the 1 sum of seventy-five dollars; in Jtuifcial ! j Districts embracing an incorporated | ] town or viilage ot not more than one ' thousand inhabitants, the sum of one ; hundred and twentv-live dollars"; and | in Judicial Districts embracing 'an j incorporated town or village contain-! i ing more than one thousand ;inbabi-j tants, the sum of one hundred and seventv-live dollars; except in the j Judicial District embracing the city . of Columbia, where the salary shall be dollars; and the Judicial } District embracing the city o?tirpen- a ville, where the salary shall be dollars; and expect the Judicial Dis-"? trict embracing* the city of Spartaii- 1 burg, where the salary shall be-^.i . '? dollars. * ..... . , Sec. 5. That each of the Trial"-Jus- \ tices appointed under the provisions 1 of this Act shall be authorized and * empowered to appoint and employ a s constable, who shali receive from the county as compensation for h'i'S services the same amount as received by \ (he Trial Justice making such appointment, and which shall be payable in the iame manner; and such constable ! . shall not receive any sum of money j from the county, or from any person, ; for any services rendered by him in : any criminal case under such employment or appointment, except asberein provided: Provided, That in criminal prosecutions cognizable by the Court of General Sessions the Sheriff of the county may be authorized to serve process, and he shall receive therefor the same fees as are now or hereafter may be ailowed by law for such scr- , vices. j { Sec. 6. That each of said Trial Jus- , tices shall collect and pay over, to the couutv treasurer of their respective counties ali costs and fe^-s to which he or the constable employed or appoint-: cd by him would have been entitled but for the provisions of this Act, , together with ail fines collected; and ^ shail, at least ten days prior to each term ] ot the Court of General Sessions for fVin rtninifir vetiarnin iir> VPSIfinS. make I out and file with the Clerk of said Court a certified transcript of his criminal docket, which shall show the amount of fees, costs andfines imposed and the amount collected thereon. > Sec. That the provisions of this Act shall noi apply to the Counties of j Charleston and Fairfield. ^ This bill is almost the same as the one now in operation in our county, except that the division into districts will be done by the County Commis- < sioners, and the salaries of the justices are not as large. The bill now in opeiation in our county, we are. of the opinon, could be improved by increasing the number of Trial Justices, and their salaries so reduced that the increased number would get ^ just as much as the number at present. ( l. O UK LA 1V-JIJ KERS. Messrs. Editors: Our wise men arc now in counsel and it is earnestly hoped that they will not be overruled by any action taken by the late meeting of the Farmers' Convention at "Philipi," and saddle upon the people a real Mechanical and Agricultural College, after the mode of Mississippi and Michigan or any other Farmers' College, until it is made a test question in our next general election and if the good people so decide, "mnm" is the world for us. In the meantime our wise farmers, it is hoped, shall devise some mode or system that shall bene" *? il 4-U* nt our iarmers ana put tnem uu tuc "high road?? to success and prosperity. It seems that there is not love enough in the State Executive Committee on Agriculture to have a "love feast." Would it not be better on the next suitable occasion 'o sing "Come ye sinners poor and needy," and call for mourners, for it seems it is the intention of some boy to write "Ichabod" and place it over the office door of this venerable committee. These are sad times with liic farmers. Cotton crop short, corn with j many a myth. Cotton marketed, proj ceeds passed to credit, a large balance remaining and merchants or agents hunting up the old mules, cattle and I wagons. This leaves many without } I I MB?

"We are consoled a litflo TTrlioti vpmpinhftr ISG/S. no one perished. It is scarcely worth while to say plant less cotton and more grain, for this has been sounding it: the ears, of the farmers for "lo these many year." . But few are go circumstanced that they cannot take this advice. A man without property has 110 other ba-is upon which to ask or expect credit. The necessity is upon him, what else can he do? . Thousands of poor in the cotton States would bepieased to have this question intelligently solved. Xo difficulty with men who have plathoric , pocket books or salaried officers who v receive their bread by the "sweat" of others, to give advice that is' worth nothing to a "moneyless man."
