of Anderson. in March, Is-1, in high hopes of J
finding emit pros|H.Tlty aim happiness on I lie 1
l<trm? of Louisiana, but her recital of facts
show how greatly tlicy have been disappoint- j
tnl.
On their arrival in Louisiana at the point
for distribution anion;: the planters this lol-1
lowing named persons went to what she
terms the Lyon farm, viz:
Edmund I Slack well, wife and four children

Lucy Mackwell spoke lightly of the scenes
of sickness and dentil through which she had '
passed, and spoke enthusiastically of tiiei
crops which she left in that wonderful conn-1
try, of which she seemed to know so little.
She could give 110 idea as to what part of the1
Stateshe went to. and could only itcseribetlie
location as the "Lyon Farm." she is a ui >ger-cake
colored woman, having two children
of a darker hue. she wore a white
"Mother Hubbard" dress, and was t lie observed
of all observers, while she took great pleasure
in reciting the (acts ab >vo stated.

I>cnth of Mrs. Cicero Hutches.
Mrs. Kllen Hushes, wife of Mr. Cicero
Hughes, died in this village on Sunday morninsr,
after an illness of about three weeks.
Mrs. Unfiles attended the funeral of her
mother. Mrs. Johnson Kamey, at Anderson,
on the21th of May. Returuim; to her home
in Abbeville on the next nay, she was taken
Kick 011 the 2i>th of May, and was, fur a tiiue,
ill a critical condition. About h vreek before
her death, she had so far recovered as lo
be able to come down town to the residence
of her sister, Mrs. J. I?. Chalmers. While on
this visit she .vas taken worse and was unable
to return to her own home, and died at
the house of her sister on Sunday morning,
where loving hands and skiiuii uocturs rendered
every possible attention ; but every of- ,
fort to stay the approach of death was unavtilling.
1'eatli nt all times is nn unwelcome guest,
but In cases like this, where the mother of a
large family of children is taken, the heart of
every one must l>c moved i>y sorrow, and we
know the great heart of tills community is
moved In tender sympathy for all the members
of this household, tmt. more especially
lor the Infant, and other children who are too
young to realize the great loss which they
have sustained. i
The deceased was buried at I'pper Long
fane cemetery on Sun-lay afternoon, after the
burial service of the Methodist church had i
been read, of which church she was a member.
The Infant, of the departed mother is in a
critical condition. We learn that Mrs. Trowbridge,
sister of the deceased, will adopt two
of the children.
Ilnppy .Sellout Children.
The exercises of the Abbeville High School
were closed yesterday morning, and the children
were very happy, as they marched
homeward from the school. They have studled
hard during the last year, and have made j
commendable progress in their various stud- 1
tes, and are now entitled to the respite from
books which their industry has earned for
them. The seliool year has been an unprece- '
dentcdly prosperous one. The attendance
lias been large, and the teachers have given
abundant satisfaction In the discharge of
their dilllcitlt and arduous labors. The re- ,
celpts of the school are supposed to meet all 1
expenses, and the School Association have
abundant reason to be satisfied with there- '
suit of the year's labor. The teachers and
children have arranged for an exhibition in (
the t.%iurt Housa to-morrow night, in which
the children of the school will unite their individual
etrorts to att'ord a pleasant evening
for such of our citizens as may come to see .
them, and thus the children ami their parents
may enter upon the holiday season with joy- '
ous hearts, liopelully trusting lor the future.

Ik a good one, the location Is ndmirable,
and everything would point to this as a desirable
arrangement, so far as the people of the

b!e to t h"R" who own tho property. We need :
additional school room in town, and no morel
suitable location, could be found. The house j
is desirable, and by proper enclosure of the

1'rcscn (wciil ?nlie Ciraml Jury
To Ilist Honor J. S. Cot h ran, Trcfkl
ivy Jucl'/c in June term Court of
Common Plain and Scwions for Abbeville
County, JSSo:
The Graml Jury respectfully submit
the following report:
\\*u flit* liillu Yintwlnl
I us bv tbe Solicitor, and made such re*
1
I turns as tbe facts seem to warrant.
We bave examined the public offices.
Tbe Treasurer's office, so far as we
are able to judge seems to be well kept.
He reports cash balance on bauds
6-33.o(J, and amount of special tax collected
on bands $747.11).
The borrowing of money to defray
current expenses we coubi approve of J
if proper safeguards could be thrown
J around it, but the radical defect seems
i to be tbe selection of County Commissioners.
The School Commissioner i9 zealous;
aud efficient, we think the cause of,
education would be best promoted by i
giving a salary sufficient to command;
the best talent and mpiire the entire
time of the incumbent.
The olficeof Auditor wants additional!
furniture, we recommend it be supplied.
Complaints have reached us of the
difficulty of finding papers in the
Clerk's office, but the Clerk assures us;
that now he has hisoflice in such con- j
diiiou that there shall be uo more
dilllculty iu this particular.
The oilices of Probate Judge and
Sherid'no far as we can form au opinion
are well kept.
We have examined the jail. The
inmates appear to fair twmpluouuly
every day. This place to a certain class
of prisoners should be less attractive.
We recommend the fare be reduced to
actual necessities.
Nellie Earl is in jail on a peace bond
we recommend her discharge. The
jail should be whitewashed on the ;
iuside. 1
I
The roads in some localities are bad- i
I ,
; ly worked and in some not at all lii.t
we deem it sullieieut to uoiify the par- j
ties interested to have the work done j
at the proper time.
We have examined the Poor House
carefully, aud tind the accommoda.
tions inadequate for the number of inmates.
One of the houses now oceu
! pied was donated for a house of wor
ship; we recommend that other houses
be built suitable for dwellings, aud the
chapel be used as a place of worship.
V\7r? fniitwl tlin frirwi \?nrl nlnlliitxr fur
uished In quality ami quantity sutti
cicnt, and the inmates well cared for
except they are too much crowded to
J gether. The system of letting out the
j Poor House to the lowest bidder, pro
! hibits any very great changes, we re
commend a change in the manage !'
mcnt, The cure and treatment of the '
poor is an index of the highest civili
zution, the present establishment
comes fur short of what it should be.
The Trial Justices have sent up only
i a few books for our inspection. They
are neatly kept, in a busiucss style;
i we recommend they be required to
adopt the same forms, aud have their
books oil hand at each term of court.
The druggists in some localities con
tinue to violate the law restricting the
sale of ardent spirits, we have not
sufficient evidence to prosecute.
At the last term of the court we pre
: sented the C. & G. It. II. for violations
' ? ? ? ? i 4o i l..w
, ; ui viuut'nu outlines lio-t uuu i-jd-., uui
|J from sonic neglect, wo arc forced to
ijtlio necessity of directing the attention
f j of the court again to the same point.
I j The Coroner i.s reported to us as over
: zealous in the discharge of his duties,
|j we specify the ci<ses of Lite Williams
'and I'hebo Valentine, post mortem
II examinations without warrant and
)j under protest.
?j This seagou of the year is very uu
f favorble to the public for holding
11 court.

t Jenifers of the court we beg to be dis
