The Court was organized by the empanoelling of the following named Grand Jurors, to serve for the year, (beiug in tho proportion of nine whites to eight colored,)?to wit: A. M. Aiken, Foreman, AV. C. Wavdlaw. James A McCord, Thos. liobinton, Btephon Franklin, (colored) Sit Rosamond, (colored), Alley Butler, (colored), "Win. McCaw, (colored), Thos. M.

After an appropriate address from his Honor, the Presiding Judgo, a numbor of bills wero given out to the Gracd Jurj'. They were comparatively few in number and for the most part wer? for trivial offenses. We congratulate tho District upon this aspect of affairs, which we attribute as^much to tho general good order, as to the -wiae discretion of magistrates, in saving tho tho courts from tho investigation of frivolous complaints. One of the long lookod-for, tho long talkcd-about, cases of the State against tho alloged murderers ot" Iiaudolph, was givon out at last, and cuded, us all might have anticipated and did an. ticipato, in smoke?"sound and lury MA4i.:nn.? rpu? Dl^llllJ UUUIIU^. JLUU UU1IV.IIU1 took Lis stand upon the casein which he was prepared to make the best showing?tho State vs. Johu Fletcher Hodgea,?-but tho Grand Jury very promptly returnod "no bill." This presentment seals the fate of all tho cases iaad so "ends this strange cventfulrhwtory." "None of our citizens believed for a moment, that there was any evidence to connect tho persons charged with the alleged crime, and felt outraged that these "falso accusations," have been bo long pending. The Solicitor, Mr. llcGowau, has only done his duty in the matter?the fault, if fault there bo, lies at somebody elso's door. In the case of the State vs. Samue l 1L Erwin, P. F. Tomlinson, J. IT. Allen and others, for 5n alleged riot at Calhoun's Mills, at tho last election, the Grand Jury found a "true hill," aE to the parties neraod, but "no bill" as to tho others.

I By rofcrcnco to tho Presentment of i the Gra<?d <Jury, which wo pubHsh--iu another column, it will bo seen that 1 tlioy hold tho Town Council of Abi bevillo responsible for the disorder < which prevails upon our public streets .1 on public occasions. There is no j doubt too much disorder on Sale Days' uud during Court Week, and as some-! body is to blame, tho Gruud Jury'; very naturally lay the sin afr the door of the Council, whose duty it is to preserve tho peace. This much we will say, however. Ou ordinary occasions our village is the most quiet and j orderly, and if 011 other occasions it bo otherwise, we do not know that it constitutes an exception to tho condi-! tion of its winter villages; or that tho| means under tho control of the Coun-1 oil, could well prevent those occasion-1 al excesses which grow out of ourj present anomalous condition. This' much wo do know, and take pleasure j in expressing, mm mo present uoun-l, oil is one of the most efficient wo have' ever had, and bns surpassed perhaps ! all of its predecessors, in its wise ex-1 penditnrcs, and beneficent public improvements.
