C_. . ^ * _ . \-'(?he Presentment of the Grand . Jury.?We publish elsewhere the admirable and conscientious Presentment .pf theGraud Jury?althoughJJudgeCar^penter expressed a desire that weshould iJiot do so, for the reason, as he said, :that "The County could not afford the ^expense." The why and wherefore of . the Judge's economy may be found out :.by reading the presentment. We know (-this much about it, however, thac the rtt^qame upon him after he had ordered the.Treasurer of this County to pay Solicitor ltunkle five hundred dollars for V.:,. thft nf tlin Pnnrf^ SCI Viw UW tiiV IVIIll \Sk WMa V just ended, aud which lasted only three days. .' JPerhaps if the PresentmentT'has been little more complimentary to his Honor, there would have been less reason for hisinclination to see it in print. The .Grand Jury announced to the Judge . that they meant no personal disrepect \ to "The Court," by the findings. Of . course not; they merely presented facts, and if the facts reflected on Judge Carpenter he must blame the facts and not the Grand Jury. What are the facts? Two terms have j passed since the Grand Jnry presented h the late County Commissioners and oth-| cr County officers for malfeasance (or' 8tealage( in otHce, and no steps have! been taken to bring them to trial. Now! whose duty is it to do this? l'rimarly, ' it is tne uuty 01 uie ooneuor 10 muici, but it is the business of the Judge to see that the Solicitor does his duty. That tiie Judge has neglected to do?aud these are the facts that present Judge Carpeu- 1 ter Jiunkle, the Solicitor, has not sense enough toeonvict the devil on his own ?? oonfowion, and Carpenter, who has the ability, makes no elfort to bring him up to the mark. < This thing of allowing parties to evade ( trial has gone so far in Edgefield that 1 even Jesse Jones, the twenty-years-old I mulatto Clerk of the court says, to use < precisely his own expression, "there is' something rotten in Denmark." And if Jessie can smell anything bad, how must an honest man's nose tingle?? Edycfield Advertiser. The Most Deadly Disease. * ii 'The most deadly disease from which j 1 line _peop?e 01 me uuneu ouius me iu.day suffering is pneumonia. Many are nearly down with it who do not .expect it, and these may have brought it on by a single act of indiscretion. Ten minutes on the street corner in tiie -cold wind; a glass of brandy or whiskey, late hours and exposure at night; .and evening in a badly ventilated ^church or the entre?any of these may permit the latent disease to manifest Itself. The disease detacts the lungs, but not, as generally supposed, a species of hasty ,consumption. There is very little expectoration in pneumonia, and in many cases none at all. The cold settles on .the lungs, the air passages fill up with mucus, and death is due to the impossibility of breathing, or to the weakness which the disease brings on, as cautions dieting is necessary. When the trouble in the lungs is overcome the patient is; often left in so slow a condition that it is impossible to make him rally. It is a| rather singular phase of this daily dis-| ease that the per centage of cases" is as 1 four to one in favor of men. Women \ .very seldom suffer from it. This may : " be due to the greater exposure to which men are subject, and the more sendentary life of women, who do not suffer from such constant changes and such , shocks to the lungs. The best preventive against pneumonia is to keep the! -mouth closed when going from a hot place to a cold, and breathe through the nose. It comes like a flash of lightening; one may go to bed healthy, to all ap- . pcarances, and wake up with the disease .in full blast. Then it is simply a ques< trvtt nf nnncfihitinn PI* no unldnni pursue but one course?to keep the pa-1 tient in a warm, equal temperature; to1 give remedies as much as possible to j clear the lungs, ami to seek to keep up! the-proper animal heart. The crisis is usually reached on the seventh day after being taken. If notdeadthen, there is a small chance of recovery, and all depends on the strength of the patient of ?Hall's Journal of Health. Teleokaphic Despatches.?Ourdaiexchangesaunounce that from henceforth they will be able to give them a Jargely increased quantity of telegraph-1 ic matter.

( She has the most alluring eyes, A little Grecian nose ; She wares the moat bewitching guise, And parti-coiored hosol * Her touch can thrill one strangely when One clasp her in the dance : At least, they tell me so?but then, I never had the chance! Her melting tones, so people say, Intoxicate the brain, And leave, when she has gone away, A joy akin to pain. Her voice is like sweet music when Its strains are soft and low; So those who've heard it say?but thcu 1 never did, you know. She makes the most superb ragout,? Knits stockings by the score ; Knows Latin, and Italian, too, Greek, French, and plenty more! She's just the girl to sweeten life,? Adorable!?div-ine! [ In short, she is a perfect wife I But then she isn't mine! . O How to Be Happy. 1. Have a healthy stomach, with good digestion through eating and drinking only that which is healtnfttl food. 2. Have a clear conscience by being honest and doing that which is right between men, and striving to do as you would wish to be done by. 3. Engage earnestly in some useful | pursuit, by which good to others and reasonable profit to yourself may accrue. 4. pay attention to the requirements of the body, exercise, bathing, clothing, etc., for health aud for comfort, according to the lawa of hygiene. 5. Indulge in no bad habits; if the quacks have induced you to swallow their pills or their slops, called "bitters" j and thence you may have come to their stimulants or narcotios, drop them, one. ana an. iney are lusiuious uueiuiuN. i (J. Keep j'our temper; do not permit,: your angry passious to rise. A bad or unregulated temper corrodes and spoils I the one wlio indulges iu unrestrained H anger. 7. Keep down an envious or a jealous; * spirit. Seek to serve others rather than I require others to serve you. It is al- j < ways better to minister to others than!, to require others to minister to us. i, 8. Avoid controversy. Good men,j honest, godly men, men who seek the happiness of others, find it not difficult i to agree with eaeh other. Such men,|] when differences arise, seek to divine j( aid to resolve the difficulties. j i 9. At a proper time?age, circumstan-: cos being favorable, you beginning in sound health and established in busi-^ ness?lake a partner of the opposite sex, j t who is suitably organized and cultured I ( and appreciative of the domestic rcla- j tions., ,j 1 a Read the ten commandment?. ' ' i 11. And follow them to the letter. t 12. Pa}- attention to daily devotions. f IS. Pray for your enemies. j 1 14. And if you are not made happy, j you ought to be. * j s J Jealousy, Jealousy is at once the meanest and the most unaccountablo vices. What c belongs to us we shall have inevitably; < \ and what we want and have not, we la shalnever, win by unreason. If i we "aere lovely, we shall be loved, no} matter whether any other takes our| place or not. Jealousy of thewealth the e social importance, or the happiness of t others is like unaccountable and absurd, i * Your own house is not lowlier because j1 your neighbor's is two stories higher. ? If he should fail, and have to give up his carriage, it would only crowd the i omnibus a little more, and by this means j provide you with a vehicle. t What is human nature that makes our t poor tare seem poorer because our neigh- t bor is eating roast duck and drinking champagne? To envy the love bestow-1 ed upon another is equally idle. Hearts 11 keep their accounts usually with very J d tolerable fairness. We shall receive that j r jf which we are worthy?no more?and ; t what is our own, by virtue of our desert,! r 110 fate can take away. Under the Rose.?The custom. ? making the rose a symbol of silence or i secrecy seems to date back as far as the 0 sixteenth century, as it is mentioned r by Newton in his "Herbal to tiie Bible," j h published in 1587, as follows: I will here add a common county cus- , torn that is used to be done with the j rose. * "NVhen pleasant and merry com-jg pan ions doe friendly meete together to:6 make good cheere, as soon as their feast j j or banket is ended, they give faithful | promise mutually one to another, that whosoever hath "been merrily spoken by Miy in that assembly should be wrap- t riorl nn in a 1 lon/ta i>arrif?H nut. of 1 .

For the assurance anu perform- t ince whereof, the tearme whic they use d is that all things there said must be ta- c ken as spoken under the rose. Where.,.j upon they used in their parlors and dining rooms to hang roses over their tables to put the companie in memore of o secresie, and not rashly or indiscreeting v to clatter and blab out what they heare. r Likewise if they chance to show any 1 tricks, wanton, unshamefast, immodest, o :>r irrevent behavior, either behavior ei- * ther by word or by deed, they protest ing that all was spoken uuder the rosej Jo give a straight charge and pass a cov-j ? enant of silence and secrecy with the hearers, that the same f hall not be blown , abroad"nor tattled on the streets among ; * any others. j j; ?>. j t Mark Twain's Adventure.?I got into the cars and took a seat in juxtapo-1 sitiou to a female. The female's face * was a perfect life insurance OCUip?.1*}' to J lier. It insured her ever getting mar- ried to any person except a blind man, 8 Her mouth looked like a crack in a dried c lemon, and there was no more expres- | 3ion in her face than there is in a cup of cold custard. She appears as if she had been through one famine, and got two- 8 thirds of tho way through another She i a was old enough to be a great-grandmoth-1 c er to Mary, who had the little lamb, j ] She was chewing prize-popcorn, and; i carried in her hand a yellow rose, while 3 a baud-box and a cotton umbrella nest- ? led at her side. I couldn't guess whether she was a mission of charity, or going West to start a saw-mill. I was full of 1 curiosity to hear her speak, so I said * ? The exigences of the times required | circumspection in a person who is trav- j eling.' 'What ?'said she. 'The orb of J day shines respleudid in tho vault above * says I, She twisted around uneasily, and then raised her umbrello and said ; 'I don't want any of your sass; git out; And I did git out. Nothing of Court proceeding is of more general interest than the descisions in bankruptcy. The latest is that of a petition in voluntary bankruptcy tiled by James C. Derby, of New York, and referred to register Williams, who cortitied that he was of opinion that Derby was entitled to a discharge, unless the Court should hold that it re quires the assent"of one-fourth in number and one-fifth in value of a voluntary bankrupt's creditors, including those who have and those who have not proved their claims, to entitle the bankrupt at a discharge. Derby had received tlie assent of one-fourth in number aud one- , third in value of the creditors who had proved their claims, and Judge JBlatch- ( ford held that this was sufficient under the law, and granted.a discharge. Did it ever occur to you what the meauingof "No cards," and "NoCake," appended to a marriage announcement , means?

At a meeting of Confederate soldiers tl ther day in Atlanta, so many were dubbo ath titles that the following approprial esolution was introduced: "Kesolvei ["hat the president appoint a committee < me to inquire whether there were any bu iving privates of the late war."
