Thq jowjrs were drawn under the new law, , and for the most part are quite intelligent men; well sustaining the old ^reputation of Abbeville in this parti on far. In bis charge to. tho Grand Jury, bis Honor, after defining tho offences charged in the various bills committed to t^iera, presented an able and interesting review of their general 'duties. They wore the conservators of the public peace and general police Of the county, and were particularly charged Vith the doty of enquiring into the 'conduct of the county officials County Commissioners, Trial Justices, Clerk, Sheriff, &c.?the condition of thepnblfc buildings, court house, jail, poor house?and making presentment /.II vwdnfinrta nf In w nnd of official VI AU If^wvtwuv V* ?. .. ? duty. 'And to cnsuro a faithful and earnest discharge of duty, tho law had provided that their deliberations should be entirely secret. His Honor advised the jury that wherever there was^ prima facie case made out in support of the offence charged in the indictment, they should find a true bill. It was a duty which they owed alike to the defendant and to the State. It; was to the interest of the A~^ 1*^ cltrtnli'l Kft rin. puny uiau itv duvuiu w ?... dieateiijby a full enquiry, and a false charge be set at rest. He regretted, he said, to see so large an increase of crime, embodying almost every offence k^owto to the Decalogue, and pledged Lis es^cst efforts to met? out speedy aod exact justice, and thus bring about its speedy suppression.

The Grand Jury were discharged on yesterday. They havo made a searching investigation, and we will publish their presentment in our next ?a document doubtless of interest to our readers. Death of Mr. Vallandingham. ~ Tho telegraph a few. days since brought the unexpected announcement of the death of this prominent leader of the Ohio Democracy, which will be received with general sorrow throughout the South, as it removes one of the ablest aud most persistent sunnorters of the claims of this sec r K ' . y tion to a just recognition in the government. Mr. Vallandighara has been taken away in the full prime of his usefulness, but his ra&ntle wilt doubtr less fall upon some political Elisha, worthy to bear it. "Wo append the following brief sketch of the promi. nent events in his life: . 5" Mr. Yallandingbom was born in New Lisbon County, Ohio, in 1822, of Huguenot family. He * spent ono year at Jefferson College, Ohio; two years as principal off an academy at Snow Hill, Maryland; returned tp * '? 1 C*4A A/1 lom iroc VlllU 111 101U) DlllUI^U iUM UIIU liu>< admitted to the baran 1842. He early began his political career, being elected to the Legislature of Ohio in 1S45 and 1846. From 1847 to 1849 he served as editor of tho Dayton Empire, and for many years subsequent to that date he paid considerable attention to his profession and to politics. He was a member of the Democratic Convention in 1856, and ran for the Thirty-fifth Congress against Hon. L. D. Campbell, present I msmhfip from tha third district, whose seat he successfully contested, anil .was re-elected to the Thirty-sixth Congress; Berving in both Congresses on the Committee on the Territories. In 1864. he was a member of the Chicago Convention, where hu played a very important part in the nomination of McClellan, In. 1.869 he was agatr* a candidate for Congressional honors, against General Kobert C. Schenck, but was defeated by less than five hundred votes. Since, that ' - V? :?A lime DO iiUS ICJiiiUUVU 111 |?viitriv.?i a\jclasion, until within two .or three weeks past, at a meeting of the Democratic citizens of Dayton, Ohio, ho introduced the celebrated preamble and resolutions generally known as the "New Departure." The New York Herald thus concludes a sketch of his life i / - , ; ; > > . .. ! i -?v - j j r\\. j JLD person me UI'UI'UOIU uuiuau n no a man of medium height, with dark eyes, lull beard and whiskers and florid CQmplexion. Although not what would bo called handsome, his features were quite agreeable, so full of animation they always were. In his uyinner ho was quick and nervous, betraying hi* Southern origin. His oratory was noted for its eloquence. The style of delivery was impassioned and resolute, and his clear,, ringing voice gave to his words their fullest expression. Ia private iild Ji'V VaJlaudigham was tnucb esteemed. Ho wai of u most exemplary character, generous to a faulty lull of charity, u stauuch friend and a magnanimous foe. It is not for us. to pass judgment on his political life, What is treason today, may be patriotism to-morrow. But justice, to the dead and to tbe living impelsus to recognize the purity of the motives which prompted Mr. Yallundigham to sacrifice his political prospects during tbe war. He had faults ; but who is there without them? -.He may bavo erred during the rebellion; but are we '1 - 4 *? O IT /v n Atr114). sure mat ue cchju ( jj-v ..utV? traded one word that he uttered iu that eventful period nor expressed regret that he pursued ^the course he did. He died believing, that he was right, and his sincerity demands our respect, even as did hw abilities command our recognition and our admiration." 0 I n' [ i?; VST On Friday last tho Catholic Churches throughout the world eel ebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of" the Pontificato of Tope Pius; th& Ninth, an occurrence which has not taken place 6inco martyrdom of St. Peter, eighteen hundred and 'three 'i year# ago. j TJ* Cotton Crop of 1871. I ?S5' Jf3#< f ' J --- JSi ? ^ j It appears from the reports which ihave Qdm0o the/Biareau of Agriculture ifronU all .the cotton-growing j State?5>f tio Soath that the area of cotton; plaateif" this year i* on an average Tktwe'cn fourteen"and fifteen per cent less than last year, which.is equivalents nearly a million and a 4 " T? la /vol ivWaIa/I 4! ? imru U(;r^3? n vfore, that the crop of 1871 will not exceed three ralilionB and a half of b*le^ and that should the soason prove unpropitioas, not more, perhaps, than throe millions of bales. The planters are growing:more corn and other products for home Consumption this year. They find by expcricnce .that a largo drop of cotton brings no more, or but little moro, money than a short one, the price in tho market being regulated by the supply. The prospect of a short crop seems already to have had its influence upon prices. Cotton has been steadily advancing for weeks, with eveny prospect of the price being sustained. : . J ' , /ST Tho correspondent of the Tribune writes: "Uiiliko Mr.- Toombs, Mr. Stevens does not believe that another war is poasiblo between the North and South, and ho thinks a remedy for tho evils of which ho corapluins can bo reached only through r..i 11 - l._ u. jjuuctuui iiivano. ue e-uiu no ucnuvcu the Democratic party could yet -save the country if it would make an earnest and solemn appeal to tfio people at the next Presidential election, warning them of the plot to destroy their liberties. If this were done, he was confident that there was yet honesty and sense enough among the people to cause them to rise and 'hurd ihe Jacobins frcm power," as ho expressed it.
