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?

?ave? nine," and <->oii)?jly pr?wp?Jfy with
thia request frons thc good people ht that

: 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.

tioneries, very fine, now on hand at Clis

. -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. " No, friend," said she,
" but the fie>h has," . .
