Then I again the more conscientious the judge the greater study he will gire to causes before tiling his decroe; and yet the bill puts him in the position of delaying liis decree that he may get more i money for it. The natural effect of paying so much per day will be that the judge, unless he is a very high man, will decide right oil' the bench lastead of reserving his decision and studying it carefully.

COLONEL IRBY AS A FIGHTER. j (Spartanburg IIciaid.) J Of all the strange things that have happened in this woaderful year of politcal surprises the most remarkable is the rise of Col. John L. M. Irby, of Laurens, when we consider th? general fi1(? riifiTi and his record. VX vi*v . ? But a recent dispatch to the Atlanta Constitution states that he has the reputation of being a fighter. That is saying a little too much. Colonel Irbv lias, as yet, done nothing to justify the reputation of fighter. He did, on half a dozen occations, orerrun the town counr.il of Laurens* but lie only icantcd to fight. lie stood on the public square with his gun and defied arrest; but that was not fighting. Previous t? this. too. he was present 1 when Kilg?re was killed, but after s staying several years where the law could not find him, while a reward . was offered by the Governor who succeeded Hampton, he returned, and ! satisfied the jury that he did not do i any fighting ontha^r^gion.
