The Press and Banner Wednesday. Jan. 9,1878. Sale Day. The lnrcc*t crowd we have ever seen her on a Sale Pay thron-red the public square o Monday. The spaeUvts area was llkea den?( ly packed hall. F.veiy man and sun of a tua in the county was here with his horse d intiIc. imriny llic forenoon the crowd wa very 'quiet, well-behaved.' and seemed st KiwlniK< \V#? nri? rnnrtilon that no county In South Carolina could niir lor iv more respectable. more intelligent <i better-looking assemblage than the 011 which wo saw hero on Monday. It include the great l>-?dy of the substantial yoemanrv merchants, professional 111011, and divine.' that gives high character and tone to thepoj illation of Abbeville county. Tho Shorifl" sales were the nucleus of n dense throng ui III their close at about two o'clock. Thcrea ter was 9 a oecidkp citAXon. The respectable portion of the cltlr.enst the number of several hundreds harncssc their horses and quietly went oil' homeward: Hut there lingered a considerable number ?i the less respectable?some thirty or fortywhose unruly and violent conduct brougli iliscredlt 011 their county. The extreme cold tiess of the day had suggeeted to an unusual ly large number the propriety ef going to th bar rooms and, as the Irishman said, puttin 011 an extra over-coat Inside, just t keep the cold out. The whiskey retailed 1; Abbeville has wondrous properties. It make .he imbiber sh?/ut like a Comanche and shoo Dtr his pistol hMantcr. Such yelijso asi> Wttnoi'tso \nd cursing ana nrtng 01 pistols in ino air ? .his rowilv remnant we urc clad to say w never had here before, and heartily hop never to have again, Koran hour or two tli [>uhlic square was virtually abandoned t hose boisterous spirits who tilled the air witl irofanlty. It was an unlicensed revwl. A 'or ladies it was impossible for them to com within ear-shot of ihe square. Hilarity i ommendable, but when it is mixed with oli icenity and cursing and firing of pistols, i becomes A NUISANCE. If men would be satisfied with only "getlin ou and unco happy." and leave the publi H'ace unbroken. nobo<i.v could object. Bu o prevent a repetition of the disgracelu ccties of last Sale l>ay, It would be wise It mr council toshut up the bar-rooms ou sucl x*casion?. The doing so hns done much goo< lefore, and it seems to be absolutely demand d. There is, if wc mistake not, a munlclpa >rdinance against shooting In our streets V litlle rigorous enforcement of the sam< vould send some of those turbulent fellows t< tie calaboose where a cold night's solitary re lection would be wlolesoinc. We ure sun hat all good m?-n are ready to mihold thi r.inds of the town council, or of the sherit hould hr summon a posse for the preserva ion of the peace. Tit K NEGRO enerallv conies on Sale Day In January ot h<* look-out for new homes for the new year ?r to ape the white man by being at the eour louse he knows not why. In a majority u Hues, the demand of the negro in forme ears at this time has been for land toeultl ate on his own account, but there Is now s narked change, lie wants to hire for wases s by tills arrangement, ho feels "sure o omethlng to eat." He fears the hunger an< ard times which In the near future stmt nil in the face.
