Major Wm. L. IIi'Mi'iir.Evs, Pro
bate Judge of Anderson County
paid our town a visit last week ii
thei nterest of the Masonic Order
and did us the honor to call at our ol
fiee. The Major is an old army friem
and one of the gallant soldiers o
Bratton's Brigade and Longstreet'i
Corps. An officer of rare courte
?y and entire reliability, he wai
generally popular in the army, anc
the exhibition of the same qualitiei
at home, has given him a secur<
place in the esteem of his fellov
citizens. He deserves all that tliej
can give.
It i? ?tatcd as a reason for tb<
trouble of transfer of freights frorr
the Air Lino Road to the GreenvilU
and Columbia Railroad, that the lat
ter i? largely io debt to tho formei
for freight already delivered and thai
the Air Lino will not deliver anj
more until old scores are settled
Let this be as it may tho difficult}
is exceedingly annoying to those whe
have freight on tho routo to Abbe
. vi.'le, and we hope to see the mattci
soon settled.

New Idea.?Wc learn that an estimable
lady friend of ours at Ninety

calaboose of that town, for the pur

This wo think a good move , and we
would advise the council to let her
have it, and to take pay in coat-butten-hole
bouquets for the use of the
City Fathers. If the council at Dae
