? I E'lifore 1'i tss and Banner :
| Orcxtf.kmks?A friend has sent mo a
] copy of yr.ur paper containing a lirst-rate
. | caricature. The only conjecture true to
1 ; ta<t in tl>8 editorial'in question, is the
'supposition that I was the author of the
" j articles on which you saw fit to comment.
'*!ln all the other eonjectuies vou are ai
|' fault.
?" | You miss the whole aim of my comtnutt'
nieations.
' ! Of an analogy, which it did not require
10 a Scotch lawyer's perspicacity to discern,
!'* you miss the very point.
My regret at having to reflect upon the
c action of the Legislature (not as corrupt,
5r but aS impolitic,) which was honestly
and respectfully expressed and that but
_ once, you have strangely burlesqued. If
f? your representation is true, I am free to
say the author <>f thy articles is either a
e* hypocrite or a lialf-idiot.
> \ou make assumptions as to my spirit
i \VTiich my whole life contradicts.
r. i You make use cf a fact in regard to
e, Furman University, which you do not
n understand, and which you 'unwittingly
io misrepresent.
id; Itv a rhetorical question (for yon noia
ther by private note nor by inquiry in
n'your paper a.skcil iiiformritw'.i,) you trite
umphantly charge damaging facts upon
line and then build upon them gravearmvuAir
tlia fniKP I
iS' jepresent. Had you asked the question,
j.11 could have Riven you an absolute No,
| \Vhere you seem to think I should be
a' compelled to answer Yes.
^fj On the whole, then, you will perceive
that if my articles are fn vonr judgment
e" I remarkable, the most remarkable thins:
L>.' about them in my judgment, is that they
1K i have drawn out so very remarkable a rcjoinder.
e You have reminded me of ;ln incident
it of ante-bellum times. A late arrival in
y | Columbia found thehouseof mine host
j Janney crowded with company, the only
T spare bed being in the attic, in a room oe1

companied a servant who was to show
! the way and rouse up the sleeper whose
re i room I was to share. A lew raps at the
'.e i door brought to view a most uncouth
] looking personage. He came nearer than
,e i any man I had ever seen to my ideal of
|*! an Asiatic executioner, the Hiirman Spot10
ted-Pace. The pillow on his l?ed lay just
ps beneath the opening in the sheathing of
the roof, and the wind, which was bnigte
t-rous, had during his sleep bloMti the
><* line dust and soot over his face. All mi>
conscious of his appearance, and only
- venting a sleepy grumble for hayjng been
ie awaked, he left me to.my thoughts. Pert
haps, for once in my life, f regretted that
t- I had no pistol to put under my pillow.
11 At any rate f forgot the danger and in the
morning was awa e in time to witness
r- my room-mate's discovery of his strange
>r appearance. With oiie look into the
glass, he exclaimed, "W-h-y, hal-lo, is
i. this rtle?" Iti fact, he was a quiet, clfevi
er, orderly man, with no blow! stains on
.. liiu fin, rem nnH ji lifMo sn.m and water
). was all that was necessary to a very decent
and trustworthy appearance.
When I read your artjcle I was puzzled
v to know what you could mean by great
personal resptect for a man whom, if your
J argument uti.t an argument, you had
,e proved to be unworthy of respect. I
would certainly have exclaimed, if Richard
Grant White had satialied me of the
, authority of the idiom, "/.v this me?"
f Is it too much to ask that you let your
" readers see the articles von have con-1
j demned? Let them be inV defence, and
as you have made your speech, let the
rase go to the J li r.v.
n In default of this, will you allow mo.,to
' make good the points presented above?

- Interesting reminiscences of tho civil
war are now being published weekly by
t'rje New-i and Courier, from the pens of
those who were active participants in that
great drama. This is as it should be, for.
i- it is a most interesting method of perpet- ]
v uating the gallantry of oui lamented i
a dead, *nd familiarizing the rising genera-1
o tion with the noble deeds of their sires, j
? These newspaper articles supply the place'
e of novels that is lost in detail in volumes
e of history, and now that time has greatly
b assuaged the prejudice of the world
against the efforts of the South, these rek
citals will intensify the patriotisih of our
,1 youth who know nosucli thing as enmity I
,j to a restored flag. I wish we had willing
j pens to give as newspaper chronicles of
. the war deeds of such men as Marshall.

and upon the kn^esof their grand parents ;
* with as much interest to narrations ofj
" these rrifen's deeds, ar we did in our youth \
1 to the stories of Mnrioh and Sumter, and
* "bloody Bill Cunningham."
There is one circumstance that will
never be recorded in history, which I den
sire to hand dowii to posterity through
" thf- PreKH and Banner and the scrap books 1
of the couHtry, and that is this:
d We are told, that South Carolina was I
led into Secession by designing politi>
dans. and that the people Would
never have done so rash a thiiig but for
>. these roaladvlsehj; , The circumstance
)l which I am about to relate I think will
v prove, that the people were at least ahead j
ir of the "powers that be" when Secession
d occurred. I hope mv memory serves me'
correctly. Jf it does not you can correct j
me. , . I
^ During the Fall of 1860 the people snuff- j
ed war in the very air, and a general feel-1
, ing pervaded the public rrlind, that we;
j" were to smell hostile powder vithin a I
,s" short time. So intense wis this feeling, !
.. that at the Fall parades of the various!
malitia battalions of Abbeville county it1
was proposed to organize a regiment of!
's men for active service. At once tbluuy
teers were tendered, and in obedibnce to a t
H call made, not by authority but by public,
e sentiment, ten companies of one hundred
11 men in each were organized,and by their:
union a complete Regiment of "Minute'
w Men" was formed, officered, and it? ser- I
>t vices tendered to tho State immediately I
>r u;?on the publication of the Ordinance of
>r Secession.
y The Field Officers elected were Col.
Aug. M. Smith, Lieut.-Col. D. VVyatt
Aiken, and Maj. W. H. Parker,
o Immediately after the organization of
,e the Regiment was completed,.Cbl: Smith
[. went to Columbia a?id tendered the services
of "One Thousand Minute Men i
from the County of Abbeville" to Gov.!
*. Pickens. When Col. Smith with some i
^ little formality had ended his patriotic!
deliverancs, the old Govferhor looked Him
square in the face, his eagle eye peering j
2- over his jjold spectacles, and said, I
"Smith, are you people ir Abbeville i
it crazy? Return to Abbeville, and dis-1
bund that Regiment of Minute Men, or 11
will have its officers arrested and imprisoned."
This is the life and history of Abbeville's
Regiment of "Minute Men."

Editors Piess and Banner :
,n Your timely comments in your last ist
sue in regard to the supreme importance
of looking out, with an intelligent eye,
for the most available material to supply
r" the County Commissioner's office, are
4" worthy of much thoughtful consideration.
* They precisely coincide with the
n views I entertain. No office in the conn*
d ty requires as much practical, trustworthy
and mathematical insight of business
qualities than the County Board,
j. The financial prosperity of the county is
^ hinged upon its administration. Commissioners
are the pilots or trustees of
her well-being. Hence, all prejudices,
111 personalities, side issues and rumored
petty foibles should have no weight in
y voting for suitable men to occupy that all
iiuportant post ol trust. Let merit pre,n
'dominate, for the good of the tax-payer,
over all favoritism for special friends. I
beg leave to suggest one of the number
1" required* upon whom, exporience has
taught, we can rost with the utmost safeis
ty. He is in possession of the requisite
is qualities to give the most general satisfaction.
His pjt?t record in that office is a
r. sufficient guaranty of merit. I ht?sitate
| not to mention G. M. Mattison, Esq., of
^ [ Donaldsvilie, (ex-Commissioner Abboj
ville county.) I feel Satisfied I speak the
I sentiments of a large majority of the dei
mocracy. He is known thoroughly and
id canvassing the county will be a supertiutelcus
work. Nothing more will be ror*
quired of him to secure his promotion
than his consent to hare his name enroll,v

Messrs. Editors Press and Banner: In reply
lO certain lumO's tnni nave neeu sei auimi uy
some of the candidates for County Commissioner.
with the nurpose evidently of elevatinie
themselves into office upon the wreck
they hope to make of thfc present Board, wc
submit (he following
It has been stated, and stated generally, by
a memh?*r of the Board of Itf7i>-S(i. who Is 110W
a candidate for re-eleclion. that when they
left the office In ISso, the County wus almost
clear of debt, and that there was a balance in
the Treasury of Sl.lHK). and thai the present
Board ran the I'ouuty in debt lust year to the
Extent of $14.0!>Q.
With the hope that you will "nothing extenuate
nor aught set down In malice" we
piake this showing for public Information
and with the purpose that we may be vlnillc
ited as far as possible In our course, and that
no candidLftti- shall stuHd on anything but his
own Individual merit.
From the report of the old Board, published
in November. lK-it), we see?

This Surplus was by net of Legislature
applled to deficiency of current ai>

deficiency of . 81,219.07
Besides this, there were various fence
claims which were to he paid out of
the p?ist Indebtedness accounts, and
which were not included in the

and echo answers, where Is the clearness of
debt and the balance on hand of 81,000. This
is a clear mlsealculation of S2.9S2.H7.
As to the 514,(XX) debt of last year:
The deficleucy of the current accounts of
last year was 87,189.15? very large, it Is true,
but on closer inspection It docs not seem so
stupendous:
In the first place, there were two accounts
foi* bridges. One of 8150 and another of 85UO?
work let out by the old Board, and not entered
on their books, until after the icport was
made up.
Then came the freshet of May, 1881, which
necessitated the rebuilding of McKettrlck's
bridge, Brsidley's bridge, Searles' bridge, and
the Calhoun's MillH bridge. The latter, It will
be remembered, was replaced by a splendid
truss bridge, which cost $3,000? nearly onehalf
of the deficiency.
The whole of the Savannah side will bear
us out In the assertion that there was scarcely
a passable bridge In that f art ol the county,
and numbers of bridges, all over ttie county,
were left in a tottering condition In order to
throw them Into the next year's accounts.
l ast yeur the amount spent for bridges wns
; $9,02tf,H4, anil up to date this year the amount
1 spent .or bridges Is S505.9O ! What does this
I show but that the whole couniy was built up
1 last year, and this year there has been no
i need of building bridges.
| Besides this, of last j ear's expenses tbe folj
lowing accounts the County Commissioners
! have no control over. When the accounts are
I presented the County Commissioners have no
discretion but to allow them:
Poor House, SI ,981.91
Hherltl 2,?8l.?:0
Lunacy, 148.00
Trial Justices 1,122.6$
Constables, 1,(122 10
Court Expenses, 2,157.10
Clerk, 272.75
Post mortems 285.00
Coroner 00.25
Board of Equalization, 5175
Jury Commissioner 03.00
Auditor 600.00
County Commissioners, 017.80
812,001.24
Here are accounts then to the amount of
812.063.24, over which th?; County Commissioners
ha\e no control whatever. The Sherltr,
; for Instance, brings In dieting accounts 'or
! 81,380 40 for hist year. The services were honj
e?tly rendered and the charges are according
' to law, 35 cents per diem, and what discretion
is there but to allow the account. The lnI
crease of crime is I lie cause of it. and so with
Trial Justices and Con.-tables, and until crime
diminishes these accounts will continue to
swell anil will have to be paid. So with the
Court espemes, including the McClung trial.
We court, Messrs. Editors, the very fullest
inve?tigutiou of ttie otlico and of our otliclal
I acts Iroin beginning to end. and are confident
that our course will be sustained.
j In refeteiice to the Poor House. When we
entered the Office the County was paying S"
! i-er head per niOnlh for supporting the paup
ers. mid received no rent for the farm. Now
the paupers aie supported at 85.75 per head pet
month, and the County receives $152,00 pei
annum for the rent 6f farm.
