Has he got to be so very virtuous and ecCfiomieal that he will not spend $3 of the tuple's money to give^jtL^iu . (^jjal' and servants ahotit Uie C^ifr# House?

Did not the lamented Orr, whose honesK ty and sincerity of purpose havo never ^non /lAnKtoil r>Vflr?r t rv miKli<t<Wi<\n Sti the "County papers of these presentments or official reports? As an honest and faithful officer lie was anxious that the people should know not only his . own doings, but that they should also ' know the conduct of every public officer in the County. Except from the presentment of the tJrand Jury, how arc the people to get a satisfactory report of the conduct of public functionaries? The people have a right to know what the public officers are doing, and no "edict emanating from an arbitrary Court can prevent their official acts-froin com ing to light, sooner or later. In Janua" ry last this august Judge wasted S5J7 of the people's money by absenting himself during Court hours when jurors, witnesses, constables, et cetera, were in waiting, and now in May, when the Grand Jury failed to endorse or llatter this august Judge, lie want- to keep the report of the Grand Jury from the public eye by excluding it from three of the newspapers published in the County. Is this edict of so high a functiona. ry, in this day of letters ami printing t.presses, not worthy of a tyrant of Itlie dark ages ? -?<?> At the last meeting of the Long Cane Society, the question, "Which affords the greater pleasure, tho Pursuit or the Possession?" was discussed with much spirit.

Abbeville Cou nty lias good reason t j present to congratulate Itself upon tli excellent character of theityarious func tionaries who fill its public offices, an upon none more so than the very efjicieu and energetic Board of County Com 11 wissioners, with Mr. Robert Jones ;i I its head, as its active leader am? chie worker. Cuder his wise management and judicious expenditure of the Coun ' ty funds, a proper "economy, lias beei ! exercised in every branch of the. scr vice, and whilst the expanses a'rpfkep ! within the limits of the income, \h ' public debt is being gradually reduced arid credit of the Couuty Is being fas h ro-instated. " From the Report of-the County Treasurer to the Board", ou the loth June, i appeared that he had collected for Coun ty current expenses $1-0,934.04, and tha i- of this amount'$9,500.00 have boon paid which leave in the Treasttreryon the 15:1 June $7,424.95 to pay current expense ' to the 1st of November. Of t his ainonn jthere is very little due for debts incur red, and is likely amnly sufficient t< meet forthcoming claims. Mr. .Tone, deserves great praise for the manner ii which the whole finances of the Conn t ty have been managed and which un j less some'hinu; unforeseen occurs wi! leave no debt against the County at (h< j cl(t.;-e of the year. i The Hoard have in addition done : ; large amount of extra work wilhou 'competition, in auditing .School claims Cp to this time they have passed iin! | past due School claims, and 17>> claim; for the current month. So (hat it wil be seen that the time of the Hoard i; well occupied, and th;it they are doing : large amount of work lor which the law I h:;s provided no pay. We trust that (In remedy will be applied, and the monej i be forthcoming. The holders of those ! claims certainly owe a debt of gratitude to the chairman of the Hoard for under taking the work, when there is som< doubt as to the requirements of the lav. in this regard. Without this action | these claims must have been thrown upon the market, and the holders forcec i to sell at a great sacrifice. As the report tliat the proprietors o! j the Press and Banner are very wealthy 1 bus folic abroad anion*? o;ir subscribers. : and has made them awful slow about paying up, thinking, doubtless, that wc don't want {lie money, we hasten to say that the report of o>r wealth is false in every particular. If ocean steamers were selling at ten cents a dozen, wc couldn't make the first payment on a canoe. The ligh.ning of poverty has struck us square, and had it not been | for an armfnl of hay our devil managed to steal from a blind mule, our large and interesting family would lie without a mouthful to eat at this, moment. Is this not a sad picture? Can delinquent subscribers look upon it without feeling (he greenbacks rustle with indignation in their pocket-books?

To us he owed nothing in life but kindness, and in death has put us under renewed obligations, by furnishing a feast worthy of a prince. Thanks to servant and master. ?.. <*> Lr?th!i-:d ix Jail.?William (?'a colored man of the Hopewell neighborhood, was lodged in jail here on Sunday, by Mr. M. 0. MeOaslan, the eiliclont constable of Trial Justice Talinan, charged with shooting and wounding fatally a small colored girl seven years of age. ITe had been to the village, and irol drunk on mean whiskey, and on his return stopped at a house about a mile from home, created a disturbance and picking up a loaded double barreled gun, discharged both barrels, wounding perhaps fatally the little girl. The gun was loaded with large shot, and one load took elFect in the child's brea-t. She lies in a critical condition. Tin; Cvclonk ok Wkdxksuay Last. ?A storm of wind with but little rain visited our town Wednesday, and rais.ng clouds of dust, threatened for a time serious damage to all within its reach. We escaped however with no loss save a few limbs torn from the trees. The ?torm came from the North and seems to have been general throughout the Slate and County. In Anderson the roof of the Court House was rolled up, and blown oir. TitiiSTi.K Wash Kt> A way.?The heavy raiuij on Saturday night washed away the greater part of the trestle of our Branch Road about a mile from town, so that this part of the road is now impassable and passengers are transferred to separate trains. The trestle on this side of Long Cane was a!:;o injured and one of the spans fell as an extra engine was passing on Sunday, but without damage to theengine. The road is sadly out of repair, and is dangerous to life and limb. Wk had the pleasure of a call from Gen. P. H. 1'r^dley a few days ??o. }Ic is one of our best farmers and always makes money, by sowing largely of oats. He thinks no man can make money at farming, if he cultivates only cotton. We fully concur with the General in the opinion that it is necessary to have a diversified crop to make farming profitable. Mu. It. Vj. Hii.t* had a job which lasted'him a whole day, last week. He has a night latch on his door, and laid the key on the table in the room. It was when he went out and drew the door last, that he had the job of making another key by guess, which would unlock it. An old chestnut trco came near doing the work for Mr. J. II. Hamblin, on Wednesday evening during the storm. It fell across the road just in front of him. C ~"^ '"'"'-.?-~r ?. - ^riv' We Rise to Explain. & - Our endorsement of Judge Cooke's e order limiting the cost of printing the orders of court to half price, if, in his judgement, ft was nece-sary, has set the a .Fnnior of the Press. and Banner all t ablaze, and lie calls us Cooke's apologist. 1 Yes we are, in that particular, but,, as t j to the expenses to tho court, we said jnothiug; we oll'ered no apology, as is !I ingeniously insinuate^. "We would be ! quite as far as the Junior from apologis - ing for any such conduct, if true, but we have no opportunity of knowing the , j facts except as he gives them ; aud not "j knowing what'greater reliance to place 11 in themthan'in his opinion about the e prim ini:order,.we are slow of belief. The Junior is fond of casting "keen ' darts at us. \ye hoj>e he will forgivcpour j blunt shafts in rcjfly.

When x ] our county officers refuse to make his _! paper their advertising medium, he _;grows ill-natured and doesn't see much j} use of advertising, anyhow. J He says: "As to the expenses of | the Court, we said nothing." No, lie ; didn't; and in all probability he never j wiil say anything but fulsome praise of this august Judge. jj lie "wonders why we never thought 4 of expenses of Court till after the days I of ollieial organs," etc. The wonder to . us is, that he (lorn no! yd xc.c it. even t when plainly pointed out to him. It . seems that he refuses to see any fault in ,'tho august Judge. We suggest that . no desired thrift will follow I lie JSx tv ? JJra's fawning in this particular. J "And not knowing the facts except .jus he gives them," Sec. The facts as ?igiven by us are matters of record that . any citizen may see for himself, by putting himself to the trouble of calling on lithe officers in the Court House. As lie has adopted the plan of asking j questions, may we not ask, if much of j the fulsome praise bestowed upon this 'august Judge by the New Era is not; r . . . ' given with the hope that thai judicial olVicer may reward him for it by a lit-j 1 tie otftcial patronage? ]'*A Christian Man RegardetU tlie Life: of His Beast." I Con. McCowan's success as a lawyer] , is well known, but it may not be gen-! lerally Known that lie is one ot our most successful cultivators of the soil. If Is success is chiefly in gardening' vaml in the production of an alum-' dance of forage for his horses and c:it-i tie, on a small tract that was recently a. barren red hill side.

Thci J growing crop with which a man feeds' ; his horse or appeases the hunger of his |cow, is something that unconsciously; touches the heart of the owner, and .must carry his thoughts up "from na-j tine to nature's God,"?producing an1 j emotion of the heart akin to the feeling! J of a partnership with Jlim who fed the j ravens. Our farmers, to be successful, must not j forget to provide for their horses aud cattle, which can readily be done by! sowing crops for their benefit.

There is no reason why the i inside should not 1>q equally as well i printed as the first side. We thiirk ed- ' ilors who ii:-e patent outsides should;f print lar^e sheets and have the advertisements which run for months put on the outsides, and then- devote nearly the c whole of the inside to local and State j news.

A good point. The 1 Press of South Carolina has a habit of loinj; more for less pay?more gratuitous and half-rate work?than any oth- \ 2r institution known to the country, lowjring, as we contend, both its dignity md independence. In the case of every sort of charity, organizations of every \ lescnption ami even personal euterpn-j< sea, the pre si is expected to work for j "j nothing and pay all expenses, and con-.? tributo n full quota besides, in money, h ivith other people. Giving (which we j < jver expect to advocate and hope to be; vhle to practice) is one thing, but busi- jx ness is another. L And while upon this subject, we utter-; t ly repudiate the idea or legality of any ] law lixilit? rates for public advertising. , ,\s well might the legislature attempt to hat price all classes of professions, artisans, merchants, and others should fix; md more so, because, if there 1?h any-;] thing that is free, and licit should be | J free, and whose freedom is guaranteed f ;iy the organic laws of the land, it is a | J public journal. And besides, no' such aw could be framed with any regard tol ustice. It would l>e equally just for the! law to say that ol)0 circulars shall be; I printed for the same sum as 1,000, rts!, luit the advertising rates of all the pa-1 pers of the State should be be the samci for, when-an advertisement is inserted 11 a paper with a circulation of .">00, it is printed oOO times ami sent to 500 people' nnl when in a paper of 1,000 circulation1 t is printed 1,0(H) times ami sent to l,0!.'0i people, and so of all disparity of num-; bers in circulation. M The Press of South Carolina needs to tut itself upon a higher plane.
