The Lexington Dispatch j Burned Aoril 25th; rebuilt July j " 19, 189 J. G. M. IIA KM AN, Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON, S. C., WEDNESDAY. JANUARY .9. 18% _ - N0TIC2. Air. J. AT. Alalpas has accepted the position of Batesburg correspondent for the Dispatch, and hereafter the news of that growing town will be published in full in these columns. He is also authoiized to receipt for all moneys due the Dispatch by - on/1 orlforticprs in that ?S> -i iUCI O tuav* MUf -? po tion of the com ty, to contract for advertising space and to receive new subscribers. Any courtese extended to him i 1 this capacity v. ill b3 appreciated by G. M. Haeman*. Editor Lexington Dispatch. Keplying to the State in reference the Ciemson matter, the Dispatch would say that the investigating committee has fully sustained the charges published in that paper and exonorated it from t?he charge of misrepresentation. "We were satisfied at the time the charges were made that there was some foundation for them or Mr. McMaster, the correspondent, would not have made them. Mr. McMaster certainly acted nobly and maniy in suffering persecution and the taunts oc beiDg a falsifier rather than betray confidence placed in him by divulging the name of his informant: and the report of the committee is a striking illustration of the truthfuluess of the ax iom tha\ "truth mushed to the eaith shall rise again." His vindication is full and complete. Among the big humbugs at law m k'ng cf the day is that of dividing the State into school districts. In our round through the county we learned that there was not one man in ten who knew what school district he resided in, and there is much dissatisfaction expressed at the present system, yet the law is imperative, that in making returns the tax payers must state in what district he resides. The better plan would be to allow the people to locate their own school houses and elect their o wn teachers. Charleston is to have the Metropolitan Police system. Gov. Evans has appointed Messrs. J. M. Eason, T. 6. Wilbur and Edward Anderson ; Police Commissioners cf that city. ! It is probable that other towns will j be placed under this system. LEGISLATIVE. We give below only a portion of rr*<-vrL- rif flip TjOOf^slafnrP. IUC av,iuwi ?? iA V* w ?^ ^ that which is of importance to our readers, omitting discussions on the the various bills. We will publish the important acts when finally passed: Housf, There were some eloquent speeches in connection with the bill to make Gen. Robert E. Lees birthday, Jan. 19i.b, one of the legal holidays of the State, and by the unusual method of a rising vote the amendment to , make it a legal holiday was agreed upon. The members of the House seem to realize the abuse of carrying concealed weapons and showed a decided disposition to pass some law that will put a stop to the practice. The point was that the present law ! ought either to be repealed or en- j forced and the majority of the mem- j bers favored the rigid enforcement of ! the law. The propositions as to the extermination of hog cholera was killed. Bill as to the removal of property by tenants as passed reads: Section 1. That from and after the passage of this Act any tenant or employee who shall remove or des troy any property of his or her land- j lord without the consent of the land- j lord shall be deemed guilty of a ! misdemeanor, and upon conviction ! shall be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than fifty dollars or be imprisoned not more than thirty days. Quite a number of new bills were j introduced during the day. One in which there is general interest is that providing for the organization 1 of ten judicial circuits, or in other ; words, to provide for two new judges, j with the following arrangement for the circuits: 1. Charleston, Georgetown and Berkeley. 2. Aiken, Orangeburg, Clarendon ; and Williamsburg. 3. Sumter, Florence, Richland and j Fairfield. 4. Chesterfield, Horry, Darlington, Marlboro and Marion. 5. Edgefield, Lexington and Sa^ luda. 6. Lancaster, York, Chester and j Kershaw. 7. Spartanburg, Union and Lau- J rens. 8. Greenville, Oconee and Pickens, j 9. Barnwell, Hampton, Colleton j and Beaufort. 10. Anderson, Abbeville and Newberry. The General Assembly of 1890 is to elect the Judges for the 9th and 10th circuits at a salary of 82,700 per annum. 1 he Governor is to appoint the Solicitors until the next general election, at 81,200 per annum. In all counties having thirty thousand population or over under the census of 1890, there shall be four Courts of General Sessions and three Courts of Common pleas for jury causes each year. The bil! provides for the time of opening Courts in the various counties.

By Mr. J. W. Mitchell?To establish a new judicial district in Lexington county and provide a magistrate therefor. Mr. Moses moved to strike out the enacting clause of the House bill to regulate the attendance of county treasurers at convenient places in their respective counties, which, was done. The bill providing for the estub lishraent of boards of health, was amended so that mayors and inlendants of cities and towns shall have the power to fill vacancies on the board.

Mr. Thurmond's bill relating to the formation of new school districts, created considerable discussion. Jorh Ashley moved to strike out the enacting words of the bill. The patrons, he said, would do nothing but fuss for a whole year over the location of a school, etc , but the bill was finally recommitted. -r- . l l*i j 1 t P ! in me aiternoon me memuers 01 ; both houses of the general assembly j took special street cars and went out to the State lunatic asylum, where I they* inspected the "Wallace property, \ which it is proposed to purchase, } and looked over the buildings of the j institution. On Mr. Finlev's motion the Senate ! " I reconsidered the vote by which the j bill requiring county treasurers to j visit certain places in their counties ! yvas killed. It was placed on the ! calandar again. WAYSIDE E0TE3 | I" I a "We closed cur report last Wednes- J I day at Lessville, wishing, like the ^ J poet that the hands of time would 1 turn backwards in its flight and c make us a boy again just for this 8 nonce. 1 Lecsvilie is a prosperous little town, c delightfully situated on the Char- t lotto, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, about 32 miles from Columbia < and 42 miles from Augusta. It is < on the famous ridge, and noted for t the dryness and salubriousuess its < its climate. Surrounded by dense i forests of health imparting pines, 1 combined with its pleasant and ( I bracing air, pure water, unsurpassed 1 | social, religious and educational facil- I j ities makes it a most desirable locaj tiori for a winter resort for theNoith 1 ! era invalid who annually seek the s sunny clime of our beautiful Southland to escape the severities and 1 rigors of the Northern winters. It is < beautifully, almost artistically, laid 1 off upon a level plateau, with natu- i ral as well as artificial drainage. Its ] streets are broad aud well shaded, J the principal ones being paved with a cement made of fine sifted sand i and rosin. Its population, accord- I j iug to the United States census ; of ISfiO, was , but since that i time it has steadily increased. The i people are kind hearted generous and ! hospitable, aud are noted for their ' progressiveness, energy and business 1 enterprise. They arc intelligent, cul- J tivated and refined, one of its distin- i guisbing characteristics being its mo- 1 rality and religious sentiment. i A tremendous business is done in < several branches of commerce, mer- i chandise and trade, but more attcn- 1 tion seems to be given to the lumber ] and cross tie interests, though its a 1 good cotton market and country pro- 1 - J (luce finds a ready sale at fair prices. I j It has a prosperous, rich aud fertile ] back country to draw tbc necessary < business to give it life, prosperity and enterprise. The soil of this 1 j territory is adapted to the growth 1 j of cotton, corn, grain, melons and J | fruits, of which large quantities are i j grown and annually shipped. i "Within the limits of the town is ( situated one of the finest and best ( equipped colleges in the State, un- t | der the presidency of that Christian j j gentleman, ripe aud profound scholar t and gifted educator, Professor L. i j B. Hayncs, a graduate of "WofTord | ? College, and who has adopted the 1 profession of teaching, not as a ^ stepping stone to some other [ profession, but from inclination, love c of it and to make it his life's work, f and his brilliant success which has milked his career attests to how I well he has accomplished his pur- ? pose. Professor ILiyne is ably as- 1 sisted by a large corps of efficient e teachers, who have been selected t wiih great care for their proficiency i in the branches over which they were c to have charge, as a consequence of this carefulness the college has earned t for itself a wide reputation for the j thoroughness of its work of educa- i ting the mind and moulding the characters of pupils placed under its r fostering care. This college is not ^ only well patronized by the people of * L?esviile and surrounding country, but there are within its walls pupils 1 from other States and other eommu- j f nities.

Sease has been teaching in his place for a few days at the Star Academy on the account of his child being too sick for him to leave home. The scholars like Mr. Sease quite well. Ho is an excellent teacher. Last Saturday night an accident happened to Mr. Krell and his two brothers on their return from a party. As they were crossing the river the flat got away from them, and jerked Mr. Krell out into the river, and the flat and the other two boys went sailing down the river aud lodged on the widow Drthei'o island. Then they made the alarm and friends heard their cries and gathered in and got the boys out and brought the flat back to its place. I suppose the boys had great fun at the party but net much at the liver. A mad dog made its appearance in the neighborhood Wednesday evening about sun down, and did much damage to the community, though i we are glad to say that it did not in- I i jure any person, and we are also glad to hear that it was killed Thursday morniDg about day break by Mr. D.
