First, the Gun Club gave 'warning tliat any person caught shooting birds before the loth,of October, would be prosecuted by them. Then, as a joke upon the Gun Club, an '''old gunner" inserted a notice to the effect that if the Club or QTJT* maTnlvAiv A-P if Aonffhi Vi lliv O U1 jLfc H vx V/ VMU^UV shooting before the 1st of November, they would be prosecuted. The gun club is slightly off as to the date the game law expires. The 1st of November, the date stated in the second warning, is correct. ?When symptoms of malaria appear, in any form, take Ayer's Ague Cure.

The Solicitor on Tuesday morning announced that no further bills were to be submitted to the sraud jury, and they were instructed by his Honor Judge Presslcy to proceed to the performance of their other duties. The following is their presentment: To Eis Honor Judge Prmley: The grand jury for the present term beg leave to submit the following report: ? ? - J? i ~11 u:iu i mat we nave aisposeu 01 uu ums placed in oar hands. That we find the County jail has been properly repaired and made amply secure, and that the debtor's room has been furnished with suitable furniture, all of which was recommended by the jury at the last term of Court. All the prisoners are comfortably fixed and no complaint from any of them. The County poor-house has been examined and all the inmates are properly cared for. We have examined the books and reports of the various xnai justices and find them correct. We wonJd recommend to all Trial Jnstices thac they state more clearly the disposition of lands. That the columns of fines, costs, etc., be footed np and if not timed over to the treasurer to so state it, as we liud in some cases that the statement of cases are not sufficiently clear, aud have to be explained by the Trial Justice in person, thereby causing delay. We have examined the books of the Coroner and find he has entered all ? ?^ T-T rt OCQ cases pro^jtri'iv, \v moil wu= uui v/ocn, at the last term, o?ving to the fact that attorneys would procure his notes for the purpose of obtaining bail in murder cases and they were not returned to the Coroner promptly, hence he had no record. We find at this term that he has all cases properly recorded up to date. We desire to call the attentiou of your honor to the fact that we have in some instances reported directly to Trial Justices certain persons for living in adultery, and that no action was taken. The reason given Dy tne justices was that no one would make the affidavit, and it was stated that they had no power to act unless an affidavit was placed in their hands. We ask your Honor for his advice in this matter and also solicit the co-operation of our representatives. The roads and bridges are in general good condition. We recommend to the County Commissioners that they purchase a piece of land and change the road on a hill between the three and four mile posts, near the residence ot Cant. Thos. Jordan, on the Monti cello road. "We present one Lemuel Sharpe l'or living in adnlterv with Virginia Torrence. Said Lemuel Sharpe is reported to us as having lived in adultery with said Virginia Torrence for several years, has raised a family of children by said woman, and is lawfully married to another woman. We report this case to Trial Justice Hsins and give as witnesses Dr. .Tno. A. Glenn, Jno. C. Williams, W. S. Perry. Elliott TCfinnodv- Rnfus Abbott, and W. D. Evans. * . Thanking your Honor for his courtesy at this term, we respectfully submit the above. Thos. P. Ligox, Foreman. Only two cases were disposed of on Tuesday.

Every one in Winnsboro feels an interest ia the Gordon Light Infantry. The people receive with pleasure any ining wmcn ternis 10 10c improvement of tbe company, or which adds to the attractiveness of *he?r already handsome armory. We doubt whether any company in the State with few exceptions is more efficient, and we know of no company in a town of the ai7P nf this nla^e that has a more beautiful armory. At a meeting of the company on last Mocday night, a very important matter came up before it. Captain Jordan, who is ever alive to the welfare and pleasure of the company, announced that be had been struck with the fact that Ihey derived but little funds for the use of the hall for entertainments, and he thought that it would be well to have the hall open nffanoi* Tlic -nlon ?q tn haro ftlihrflrv. VllWUbl. i""" . Squads of the compauy will be app'ointed each week, whose duty it shall be to opeu and light up the hall and drill. Other members of the company can exercise their pleasure as to whether they will drill or not, when tiheir squads are not on duty. The regular drilling of the squads will noooecorilv 1 n^rrnsfi. fhfi efficiency Of the compan). The Gordon Light Infantry has on numerous occasions received the highest compliments, and if this plan now about to be inaugurated is executed, we may confidently expect them to win even greater laurels. This matter of a library is a most needed thing in Winnsboro. The young men of the company have no where to spend their evenings, and it will certainly increase their literary taste and social natare to meet in the armory and read wholsome books, magazines and periodical?, and engage in innocent srames, and, moreover, it will increase the interest and enthusiam of the members of the company. The whole thing, of coarse, is as vet, in si crade S*<*te. It has been referredto the c^">:;,Umoijci1 officers, who f/.irAi .* q 11 #1 n HAfinite WliOUU i'rvuivjj WWSt IVJ/V.
