Dr. Sims Discharged. * Columbia, April 6.?The Sessions Coart-fQpm was crowded this morning to itfear the decision of the Court as to the compellability of Mrs. Sims as a witness against her husband. The Sheriff rapped for order and said that the Court had received a letter pertaining to the case, and had banded it to the counsel for the defence, who were at liberty to read it aloud. C?, .u: : ay read the letter. It ran its follows, and is entirely in Mrs. Sims'* hand-writing; CV nr-.tbu, S.

Sim. : aiicg of :l y. pots ad A~ L-.v -?rfws.-\ 1 : ^ fo the Couri I ; th mght :. e fact of Mrs. Si gib's dTsincTinatlbn to testify was estehftabec^ and it was uh'-' aecessary to urga that she be sworn un ber voir dire. After arguments by Messrs. Abney Mid Johnson against compelling Mrs. Sims to testify, Judge Hudson asked the solicitor if be had anything to say. Solicitor Bon bam repilod that he understood that counsel for the defence were to have had the reply. He would, therefore, have uothiog farther to say on this question. If his Honor rnled'that Bfrs. Sims could not be compelled "to testify he would net press.tb# matter further. Jadge Hadson in giving his decision said: The question at issue was aD important one, a momentous question to the profession, anyone effecting the weifurti of society at large, aud ii L...1 therefore given him great concern^ * * * *. * * ** He knew of no common nor statute iaw which directed birn to say to the wiffl "Thon shalt." and on her refusal to imp^lon her. The Statute law did Dot militate against this doctrine. He would regret to see the day io South Carolina when mothers and wives could be dragged to court to testify against their husbands because oi some outsida rancor.* It would be terrible. ' I feel,^ said Judge Hudson, "that in this decision I take the cause of every mother and wife io.lhe land. Even in civil suits the law goes a great way when in such suits the wife and husband may be compelled to testify against each other. That law strikes n very severe blow against the domestic peace of families In the absence of a statute in South Carolina compelling *a" wife to* be a witness against her hnsbapdp&nd, in my opinion, this case is not resting op the common law?I am forced to hold that this woman is notvco?pellable to testify against her husl^d In face of tfeffwrotest of this wife, who has cond^ed whatever offence thetCjaay have been, I cannot force bsredi testify. I hold that she is* a competent witness, and one permitted to testify, but that she canuot be compelled to da SO," Solicitor Ooutiam: I have nodonbt that the letter of the witness to the I ask iifplace the witness on the stand *tk! let Bar say far herself that she declines to testify. The Court decided that the request of the solicitor was a propper one, and that the witness should take the stand. Mrs. Sims promptly walked to the witness stand, and, turning to the Judge with her veil lifted for the ? 7 first time io Court, said rapidly and with a grateful look ? "Tour Honor, 1 decline to testify against my husband. I thank your Honor so moch foryoui liberality." She then left the Courtroom. Solicitor Bonham: After this I ask your Honor to enter a nolle prosequi in the case of the State against W. S. Sims. In accordance with the suggestion of the Coqrt the order bf release wss made out so as to read that thr prisoner "go hence without day, as ii acquitted by the verdict of a jury,' and when presented at 11 o'clock this order was signed, and Dr. Sims was a free man, secure from all farther prosecution on this charge. Upon his release Dr. Sims went to the board in g-honse where bis wife bad stayed while in Colombia and received c mes?aga from her to the effect that she had just gone to the Greenville depot with ber mother to take the op-train for her mother's faitUiU kl Mcl'ormict, TJdgefield County. He got a hack and drove to the depot, where he-met his wife, and before the train left conversed with her, briefly thanking her for her magnanimity. The train left, and Dr, Sims returned. He was met by the correspondent of the Neivs and Courier in the Sheriff's office this evening, and said that bis future plans were undecided. He would go to Aiken to-morrow morning on business an3 return to Columbia, where be expected to remain for a week longer. At the proper time he would make a statement which would satisfy the public as to the character of the charge made against him. He seemed to take his freedom without marked dation, and his manner was unem.?;.rrasr?;d :tnd ,j? -Cohn-tbia Cor't'*po>iden< -V.: 5 Courier. r2?;s The,?r8t\)f a a-t /?&dixig8 giVe'n ? ? * !:- oj Jjonse on Friday evenic^.

After this is well 0 , done |t is *&yy i?na|hnt th&t they should be covered; it is tfae.tlpit the cotton seed ftl ! will sometimes sprouton top of the groaud, s< I but that is only the cse when we have a w rainy spoil; how oftenbave farmers wished c' ' from May till June foitnis rainy spell to J1 come, to make their uncovered seed in ' stiff bottoms and rougl^d" sprout, which land is invafiabty the fast; for this very reason seed not being yoperly sown and ' covered, a short crop iwery often made on ? these spots; farmers wi complain and say "the ?p*y snofs where lougfct to have had 1 ; my best cotton is the siriest in the field; ; little sorry stuff and nolover half a stand." But the idea doesn't SEfai to occur to them . that they had uegleetet to how these seed properly; they know v<y often that their cotton planter is an infeior one, but money I is scarce and they thm they had better make out with the old Oe this year. Pos- bi sibly there may come ko or three days tl , nice rainy weaker ftfte w* gft through tv planting onr cotton andbring it right up; tl i with that hope they go aead with a "make b< ? out" Cotton Planter, knwing that it will tj not do the work proper^. Farmers very to I often buy a cheap Plante tbat will do the rn work imperfectly, and cflsole themselves ' by 6ayiug I haTp got a Ctton Planter and saved two pf three dpli?s py it, it never once occurring to them how* much they lose in the fall of tbe yeudby the planting m , not being properly done. There is another rr important point. A roily can be of great I 1 assistance in obtaining afood stand of cotI ton: it is a noted fact tha cotton seed will come up sooner when tin dirt is packed on them. To obviate these idificnlties buy a . "Cox Cotton rianter," " ""'i , - the "Cox Cotton Planter" Mdc Complete w< rk ; i It is arranged so fha* yot ok' J, the top flf fhe fiflge wi-b .tEK fiout of tne!

The coverer to the "Cox Cotton 01 Planter" is absolutely the be? that has ever ^ been invented, and will cov<iin all kinds of soil. When we say it nil cover, we iuean jt. ff ypu'fcuy a ''Oa,-ottou Planter," carry it home and giveit a thorough trial, and if it fails to do exs.tlv what we say it will do. return it to to man from U whom yon bonght it and get your money " back.
