Progicaa of the Court. As we went to press last week, the case of the State against Flint, for the killing of Sharp ton, was being argued before Juflge Melton. In this case Messrs You mans <fc Sheppard appeared for the De fendant, Mr. Barnwell for the State ; and all mads earnest and fable speeches. Flint was acquitted. ' The next case tried, of any impor tance, was that of the State vs. Brewer, of Granite ville, charged with the kil ling of the negro woman who shot his (Brew er's) child. Messrs. Gary & Gary and Youmans & Sheppard for the defenoe, Mr. Barnwell representing the State. The State, however failed to make out a case, and the Solicitor gave the matter up and the case was; dismissed, Mr. Brewer, for whom great sympathy was felt, departed for his home on the same day. On Friday afternoon the Court of Ses sions was adjourned. And Judge Mel ton dismissed the Juries-not retaining them for civil business this week. On Monday morning, the Court began with Calender No. 2, putting aside Cal der No. 1., which requires a jury. No business being ready, however, an ad journment was made , until Tuesday morning. On Tuesday and Wednesday certain civil business was dispatched -not of interest to the general public On Tuesday we were pleased to see at our bar ono of the most,. distinguished members of the legal profession in South Carolina-Mr. Thompson, of Abbeville. Genl. Butler, of. Columbia, and Major Baxter, of Newberry, have also been present for a short time during the ses sion. Genl. Butler was to have returned this week, but ie detained in Columbia by the Democratic - Convention, to which he is a Delegate from Richland County. A pleasant feature of Tuesday morn ing's session was the appearance in Court of our gifted and popular townsman, Thomas P. Magrath, Esq. This sound, able and experienced lawyer, though much confined to his office now-a-days by ill health, is as vigorous and trench ant as in his palmiest days. Many friends, who had not seen him lor some time, were delighted to greet him on this occa sion. And in this connection, we would re fer to the bold, concise, truthful and con scientious Report of the Grand Jury, which we publish this week. We haye seldom read a Report of this kind so cal ciliated to open peoples' eyes to many public abuses, and to set on foot meas ures for the correction of the same. Our citizens will no doubt mark well the words of the Grand Jury in regard to the sale of lands for delinquent taxes. On Friday the County Commissioners, . through their attorneys, Messrs. Gary <fc Gary, submitted a lengthy report of their official actings and doings in answer to a Rule of last Court* to show cause why they should-not be indicted for neglect of their official dutios. The report was very elaborate, Very plausible, rind in tho main a much better showing than we thought they could possibly bring forward. Pennas Bouquet. " Our industrious and enterprisi ngyoutig us with a bottle of superior Cologne of his own making. It is called 44 Penn's Bouquet," and has already achieved a grand success. We really speak thc ab solute and literal truth when we say finer or purer Cologne was never made. So go to the Penn Drug Store and buy a bottle of the " Bouquet". We hear tliat the pretty girls, around, call it14 Willie's .Bouquet." A Sort of Kidnapping- Case. On Tuesday last two little negro boys; Joe and Ezekiel, aged respectively about 12 and 14 years, were brought to our town by an officer of the law, who had taken them on writ of Habeas Corpus from the possession of John Gillion, Lemuel Gillion and Lark Rodgers, citi zens, if we mistake not, of the Mine Creek section. The mother, Kitty Jack son, lives on tho plantation of Mr. G. M. Broadwater, and avers that tho aforesaid persons took the children from the afore said plantation without her consent. She then went, and, getting hold of them, brought them back home. Subsequent ly, the Gillions and Rodgers again took them away forcibly. And now the mother has them on Habeas Connus. We hear the boys hired themselves without the mother's consent. One of the boys looks ragged and worse for wear. As we have heard it, the tale makes Rodgers and the Gilleons appear decidedlj- lawless and high-handed, and all good citizens will discountenance and disapprove of their conduct. The casowas beard on Tuesday evening before Messrs. Ramsay and Harris, Trial Justices, and the children remanded to their mother, asthey doubtless should liave been. <? . Last week we commented in a mild way on a pair of contemptible Radical pimps who had been writing malicious falsehood* to the Scott Riug organ in Co lumbia, concerning the Advertiser in particular, and slanderously abusive of the good people, in general, of Edgcfield. And we here state for the edification of these maliciously inclined scribblers, that whenever they attempt through their dirty organ to misrepresent and msiign the good people of Edgcfield-os honora ble and gal lan ta people as ever lived-we shall, without regard of the consequences, come to the defence of the latter. Our motto is: We will stand up for Edgefield and Edgcfield people forever, if right but right or wrong, we are erf them, and for them, and will silently suffer none to defame them Therefore, if the Radicals, like their master, Grant, cry ont 44 Let us have Peace," we answer, Hands off let us alone-and meddle not with things that do not concern you. And once mare, to close with. Radi . etd pimps and underlings-or Radical magnates either-may write their vile slanders concerning Edgefield and her people, but they may rest assured we shall spare no pains to unmask them, and to smite them hip and thigh. The Jborre Bridge.' We have been J-cquestel by- interested citizens to call thc attention of tho County Commissioners to the almost impassable condition of the Lowe Bridge, on the Liberty Hill road, and to suggest to tho Commissioners thc Importance ot hav ing said Bridge repaired without delay. We hope Mr. Harliug, the Chairman of the Boardr-will .take this matter iii hand, an 1 have ?lie repairs attended to, as this Btidge is op a much-travclod thorough faie, and it will be a.gr<?at convenience to tiie people to li?v* it patin passable order. We are informed that but little money ia needed to do the necessary work, and If repaired soon may be the means of saving the Bridge fur nome years. Let the Com mission ?TS mn em? betr thc old aditgo that "a stitch' In time ?ave? nine," and <->oii)?jly pr?wp?Jfy with thia request frons thc good people ht that ti*. Acknowledgement. : Our fair and amiable young friend, Miss Marie Abney, now a pupil of the popular Institution 'of.the Misses Sedg wick, in Augusta, has sent ns an invita tion to attend the annual Sedgwick Con cort and Soiree Dansante at Masonic Hall on the 13th inst. Wo return her our most gallant thanks. m?h We. understand aCommittee of gentlemen-practical cotton plinters will shortly take a trip Of some seventeen miles over on the "Dark Corner" side of the District, to witness an unusual anomaly in the cotton plant thus early in the season, which we are assured hy Mr. Press Blackwell, and other reliable gen tlemen, is already bursting its bolls and will soon bc raady for the nimble fingers of the cotton pickers. We hope tosend a reporter with this sight-seeing and in vestigating Committee, and will present our readers with a full description of this new species of cotton, which is now ex citing considerable comment among cot ton planters. Mr. B. tells ns that all the seed of ti?s wonderful cotton have been engaged at fabulous prices. No Possibility bf it Proving Imperfect. We allude to Gullett's Improved and Light Draft Cotton Oin. And our peo ple-for all our people are cotton planters -could not do better than study the card in another column, of Isaac T. Heard & Co., of Augusta; Commission Merchants, and General Agents, .par ex cellence, for the Gullett Gin.* These gen tlemen, whose very name is a guarantee, set forth the matter so forcibly in their advertisement, that we feel we need strive to add nothing. Do not neglect, therefore, to ponder long and well over the merits of the Gullet Cotton Gin. I3T A fine variety of choice Segars just received at Clisby's Drug Store, lt Bearing on the Oats Question* In another column, Elbert Devore, "Esq., of the Kirksey's X Roads section, . one of our most enlightened citizens and most progressive farmers, offers for sale a large quantity of Bed Bust-Proof Oats. We hear such wonderful accounts of this I gentleman's success in raising this spe cies of grain that we would like very much to have a statement of his mode of cultivation. SST A large supply of fresh Confec tioneries, very fine, now on hand at Clis by's Drug Store. ,> lt . -A Great Storm. CHICAGO. June 8.-Further reports con cerning the great storm of Thursday night in central Illinois,' show that an immense amount of damage was done in Peoria, Fulton, Knox and other counties in that section of the State. The destruction of the bridges on the country roads has bt en almost universal, in the city of Peoria fences and trees were blown down and cellars were filled with water. Every rail road leading out ot the city suffered more or less, and no trains left thew yesterday. CHICAGO, June 8.-The Burlington and Quincy Railroad bad about four railes of its track and many bridges swept away. The Toledo, Peoria and Wabash Road also suffered severely, losing one bridge cf 150 feet in jength, and the entire road bed in a number of places. A large number of* men have been set to work repairing dam ages, and there will be but little interrup tion to trains. In the town of Hilton the damages are/earful, and the town is al most entirely under water, and barns, stock, <fcc, have been swept miles away. The most singular circumstance of the storm is the running up-stream of the Il linois river. The immense volume of wa ter that poured into the stream has created a backwater, and there is a strong current running northward. The river last night . was still rising rapidly, and fears of seri ous damage from thia eonroe wcro enter tained.' THE CAUSE OF THE ADVANCE IS COT TON.-The Financial Chronicle, of May 31; attributes the advances last week tb the very small receipts at the United States ports, together with the improve ment at Liverpool,. which, in a limited way. revived the demand for export, and enabled the bulls to get a twist on the shorts. Although the advance is the re ks?lt of the iact that the shorts have been cornered, the movement bas been helped 'forward by the steadiness of the legitimate demand from American spinners and from shippers lead? g to a rapid reduction in stocks'. The Chronicle thinks the advance *is not mainly due to speculation. ? The same paper makes' the visible sup ply 2,-250)*57b, against 2,098,335,' showing ! an increase of the cotton in sight on May 31st 102,240 bales more than at the same date last year. The American cotton in sight was 695,275 bales on May. 31st, against 1,165,245 same date in 1871, show ing a decrease of 460,970. The India cot ton is sb much larger than last year as to make i he total suppiy larger. - Mimi* '-; Ihe Germans of Nashville, Ten nessee,, held an enthusiastic Greeley meeting on the 25th* ult., and adopted resolutions renouncing former alliances, and assuming a neutral position until a party shall offer based upon the principle of honesty in government. ?B* J. Henry Burch, a colored delegate from Louisiana, now in Philadelphia, who has boen interviewed, says, " War moth, who lead? the Greeley interest there, has been nominated for governor, with Pinchback for lieutenant-governor, which virtually places the State in the possession of the Greeley party. ?St- Tho Milwaukee (Wisconsin) News, the leading Democratic paper of that State, which at first pronounced against the Liberal ticket, has changed its views, and now advises the endorsement of Greeley HI Baltimore. The Chicago Tintes says that Wisconsin will send a Greeley delegation to the Baltimore convention. ?ST- The Democratic and Liberal Re* publican conventions of Illinois both meet at Springfield on June 20, and will nominate a State tioket in concert. Sena tors Trumbull and Schur?, Governor Gratz Brown and Geo. H. Pendleton, of Ohio, have been invited to speak, and a great demonstration is expected. ?Mr Tho Judge Advocate o/ the Buell Court Martial was Don Platt, and hr declares tho testimony produced at tho trial was very damaging to General tirant, and this is probably the reason wliy the record was stolen from the War Department. . In the official report of the battlo of Iuka, General Grant was accused of willful miarepr?sentlon, and, what is more to the purpose, the charge is proved, according to General Rose cranz. This report is also missing. TpSr Tho famine in Persia, which now seems to be drawing near its close has been productivo.of an amount of misery almost unparalleled jn modern times 'Captain Pierson, an Englishman, who lias recently travelled in th3t unhappy country, describes the last stage of the lamine as worse than the first. On his journey from Shiraz to Tehoran he found the road strewn with half-eaten corpses; cannibalism was very prevalent, and starvation had aroused the usually peacea ble inhabitants to despair, and brigandage and other crimes of violence were rife all along the roads, In the capital alone, out of a population of 80,000, at least 20,000 bad fallen victims to the famine and its attendant diseases. .^Sr-Miss- Drummond, tho Quaker preacher, was askod whether the spirit over inspired her with tho thought of getting marrJud.
