A Correction.
Oar attention has been called to a j
serious error in the new constitution i
as published in the supplement of j
the Dispatch. Section 0 of article j
17 reads as follows: "The real and j
personal property of a woman held j
at the time of her marriage or that
which she may "hereafter" acquire,
.&c. Put a "t" to the word "here- j
after" and the sentence will be j
-correct.

A Lexington Boy Honored.
The Dispatch is always glad to
learn of the progress made by Lexington
boys in their studies at col
lesres as well asia the business, social
and the other departments of life,
and it takes pleasure in noticeing
honors won by their industry, perseverance
and close application to )
study and for this reason we notice [
that Mr. Arthur F. Karrnan has been J
selected to deliver the Annual Ora- i
tion of the 11th Anniversary of the
Agathcndau Society at the Pcabody
Normal Institute at Nashville, Tenn , 1
I
February 22nd, 1S9G. He has taken
for his subject "Natural Tendencies
of the Age," and there is no doubt
but what he wilJ handle it in a mas- I
terly stylo, which will win new laurels
for Li:n.

Another Fire.
Thn "Williams' liverv stables at
v
Swansea were burned on the morn- i
ing of January 3d. By the hard
work of the citizens of that town ; .
Martins' Hotel was saved. Ilad this !
building caught no human agency i
could have saved the store of East
Brothers and there is no telling
what damage would have been done, j1
The origin of the fire was evidently
incendiary as no one wasknown to have I
been in the building since the day j
before, nor was there any fire about \ (
the place. j (
The Legislature to BLet.
The Legislature which is to assemble
in Columbia Tuesday will be per- ;"
haps the most important session
held since the Democrats regained : <
control of the State in 1876. . 11
The work of the session is of such
a nature as will probably require the I,
limit of forty days fixed by the new 1
constitution to peiform the woik
necessitated by the changes made in ;
the organic law of the S.ate, and j
it is very doubtful whether it will be !
able to get through with its woik in ; .
the time named even by the most j
economical and industrial us of the 11
[
time, but there is no use in attempt- :
ing to forecast the work of the scs
sion as it is all a matter of specula- i,
tion after all. "We shall see what j ,
we w ill see when the end comes.

Mr. J. Wade Leapbait committed j
suicide last Thursday at his residence j
in the Rocky Well section of this
county, by shooting himself in the
head.
Our informant, in relating the de- ;
tails of the lametable tragedy, says ,
that on the morning of that day Mr.
Leaphart left his sitting room, taking i
his gun with him, and went out on
the piazza; in a few moments the j
family was startled by the repoit of j
the gun, and rushing out found the j
husband and father in the struggle I
of death and his life's blood flowing j
from an ugly wound in his head. :
He had been in ill health for sometime
and it is supposed that the con- j
stant brooding over liis misfortune
made him despondent and he deter- j
mined to put an end to his suffering
and trouble by taking his own life, j
He was about oO years of age.
He was a gallant Confederate sol- |
dicr, and served through the entire
war with marked distinction and fi^

and the best helper is the Old Friend, SIM- ,

The County Treasurer, not having
made his rounds through the county
this year, we could not canvass the
county in the interest of the Dispatch
under such favorable circumstances
as in previous years, and
hence we have an unusually large
amount of money duo us for subscription.
It is very annoying and
unpleasant for us to be constantly reJ
minding subscribers through these
columns of their delinquencies and
we would net do so had we
any other alternative. To be
candid, our business obligations
are of such a nature as to force
us to collect every cent due to meet
them, and we trust that those indebted
to us will be prepared to set
tie when they come to meet the Auditor.
If you do not come yourself
sead the amount by a friend or
neighbor.

Sc-ctioD 270 of the law in reference
to the assessment of taxes. (tteviseci
Statutes.) reads as follows:
All prop city shall be valued for
taxation at its true value in money,
which, in all eases not specially pro
vided for by law, shall be held to be
as follows, to wit: For personal property,
the usual selling price on the
usual terms of similar property at
administrators' or executors' sales, at
the place where the return is made;
and for real property, the usual selling
price on the usual terms of similar
property at sales for partition
under the order of the couit, at the
place where the return is lobe made.
If there is no usual selling piice,
then at what is honestly believed
could bd obtained for the same at a
fair sale under the conditions above
mentioned.
It shall be the duty of each owner
of lands, and of any new structures
thereon which shall not have been
appraised for taxation, to list the
same for taxation with the County
Auditor of the County in which they
may be situated, on or before the
twentieth day of February next after
the same shall become subject to
taxation.
All returns for taxation must be
filed with the Auditor not later than
February 20tb, 1S06, as after that
date the law requires the addition cf
50 per cent, to the last year's return.
Poll tax as well as property must be
returned.
