The meeting was called to order by Dr. Kennerly who after a few remarks introduced Jas. P. Bean as chairman. Mr. Bean in a few pertinent words introduced Senator B. R. Tillman. Mr. Tillman in his lucid and forcible style gave us a splen did exposition of the monetary status of our government and com mon country. We think he con vinced the masses that the finan cial policies of our general gov ernment are wrong and amount to nothing less than a system of robbing and stupendous frauds, enabling a few goid bugs to roll in millions of ill-gotten gain while the people at large are daily grow ing poorer. His denunciation of Cleveland and his financial poll eys was scathing and full of bitterest irony. Then Hon. W. J. Talbert waa introduced. He made a telling speech in his own inimitable style. He is a forcible speaker brim full of pluck and us fearless as a lion, consequently he never hesitates or falters in the performance of his duty*. His course in congress has been eminently satisfactory to his constituents and we fondly hope and believe that he yet will be instrumental in accomplishing much and lasting good for those he serves aud for our whole coun try. Your correspondent was hinder ed so that he failed to hear all of the speeches m ado at Mt. Willing; expected to send in a full account, but can only send a general out line. Hon. J. McLaurin was ex pected to be there but did not come. The crowd was esiimated at from six to eight hundred. Mr. Jeff. Parish furnished the hash. The ladies brought baskets and upon the whole the day was a suc cess. The young ladies were out io their best dress and of cour?* wore their sweetest smiles. LOCAL DOTS. Misses Bessie and Gussio Gog gau8 and Miss Leua Adams while on their way to Mt. Willing on Saturday last were all thrown from their buggy.

At a meeting of the Board of County Commissioners, held on Monday the 15th, inst., Mr. J. D. Fraser, Secretary of the Board, and County Supervisor Whittle, a member ex officio of the Board, \ were sworn and examined touch ing certain of their acts reported ! by the Grand Jury. After the ex amination, the Board passed the following resolutions: Resolved, That, upon investiga tion of tho acts of the Secretary ot this Hoard and of the County Su pervisor, criticised by the Grand Jury, we find, after txamiuing the said officers on oath, that the focts in the premises are as follows: 1. Mr. J. D. Fraser, Secretary of the Board, without authority of law or of the Couuty Board, and without the knowledge eveu of the Supervisor, has paid himself two hundred (200) dellars for his ser vices, when the Attorney-General of the State had previously advis ed the Board that there is no au thority of law to pay any ar-ou nt to thn'Secretary for such . /rices; and this act on the par? of the said Secretary is palpably illegal. 2. The Supervisor, in signing checks for Mr. Fraser without knowing what he was signing, con victs himself of gross carelessness in performing an important part of th?- dutiiB of his office. 3. The Supervisor has been ap proving certain claims against the County without, submitting them to this Board; and we regare such acts as of doubtful legality, and a? certainly prejudicial to tho inter ests of the Couuty. 4. The Supervisor has approved an account for N. G. Evans as At torney for the County for fifty (50) dollars, when the Attorney-Gen r al of the State had previously ad vised this Board that there is no authority of law to appropriate County funds for such a purpose. Resolved, That this Board had DO knowledge of any of th? facts stated ab)ve until the report of the Grand Jury called their attention thereto. Resolved, That J. D. Fraser is( hereby requested to resign the ofhV.fi nf Secretary of this Board. The Board ordered that the fore going resolutions be published in the County papers. JAS. P. BEAN, Sec'ry. SOMETHING NEW.

I now have a few convicts witl which to work the roads of Edge field county, under sentence ol thy court, but they are so feu that it will take a long time tc gel around; however, I'll make thh suggestion: There are a great many ditch bridges in the county that cost a good deal or mone}' in the aggregate. Now, if farmers will haul out of their plantations, rocks and stones that may be in the way, and pile them near these bridges, I will take these convicts from time to time and fill up the ditches with the rocks, thus doing away with the necessity of wooden bridges and saving a good deal to the county in the way of lumber bills. As an indication of what these little bridges cost, the county I would jay that on one piece of road a mile and a half long there are seventeen ditch bridges. This may be, and probably is, the worst piece of road in the county for ditch bridges, but is by no means the only piece, they probably run up into the hundreds. M. A. WHITTLE, Sept. 3, '95. ; Sup.
