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.

talkcd-about, cases of the State against
tho alloged murderers ot" Iiaudolph,

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.

The Grand Jary and Town Council. 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.
The Town Council have j
! enlarged powers?are backed by thei
"purse and sword " of our citizens??j
and if anything more can be done by j
them to prcservo the public peacc, j
wo trust that it Avill bo done. '-Let I
i
us have peacc"?peacc in private, and j
peace in public, pence for whites, and j
peace for blacks?peace to work, and J
pcucc to rest. Let legal process be;

WE WOULD - respectfully iaforn*
such of our customers as nro iu
arrears' to us for goods told tbem last year,
5 that the time has come when wecxpectali,
without an; exception, to pay up.
We are compelled to have money during
ibis month. We have waited on our customers
long and patiently, and we know rfc
is only necessary to assure them of our
need of moner, to induce them to pay up.
Cotton is b/mging a good price now, anil
there is no reason or justice in keeping a
merchant out of his money longer, when
the debtor has the means of paying at bia
command.
Come forward gentlemen, settle up old
j scorcs and put us iu a condition 'for indulging
you during the year upon wbicb we
have just entered.
