The Solicitor being absent J. A. Muller, Esq., acted. Mr. S. O. Kaminer was made Fore man of the Grand Jury. Only two bills were given out to the Grand Jury, one of which was thrown out, being the case of the Stats against David and Otto Ellisor, who were in jail charged with assault and battery with intent to kill. The other was a dispensary case, that of the State against Edenton "Willis, charged with violating the Dispensary law. A true bill was returned, and the trial resulted in a verdict of "not guilty". This was ! the only case tried at this term. There are several cases on the cal- , andar which have not been given to ; the Grand Jury and also several for ' trial, but they were all continued. j The Petit Jurors were discharged } Monday afternoon, until this morning when the Court of Common Pleas was opened. The only business transacted was ! hearing a return to a rule to show cause, issued against a man for talking aloud in court the day before. ! On account of the very inclement ; weather Monday, the Judge had compassion on the prisoner for imbibing to freely of "fuss" X and dismissed the rule. lie was represented by A. M. Boozer, Esq. The Grand Jury made its present- ; ment, as follows: To the Hon. Ernest Gary, Judge Presiding: Me, the Grand Jury for Lexington county, beg leave to submit the following as our report for the first term: M~e have carefully examined and passed upon the bills handed us by the Solicitor, and discharged our < as K/ifii trp <v>nld It is reported to us that the hill on the south side of the creek on the road leading to "Wise's ferry is almost in an impassible condition, and we urge the proper authorities to put the ! road in a good condition immediately. I We have examined the jail, poor house and dispensary, and we recommend that the jail be cleaned atoDce and kept in a more cleanly condition; and as complaints have been made i by the prisoners as to their treatment from the physician, we recommeod that he render better service to them. We recommend that half a dozen pairs blankets be furnished the poor house. We recommend that the roof of j the kitchen be extended so as to ! meet the roof from the dwelling and j a tin gutter be placed therein in | order to protect the buildings, and j that the steps be repaired. Complaint having been made to us j yesterday by the Dispenser that a member of the Board of Control, Mr. W. B. Seay, having gone into the dispensary and sold whiskey to an intoxicated person against the pro- i test of the Dispenser after the said Dispenser had refused him several times, we, therefore, recommend his immediate removal. Mr. II. D. Taylor } aviDg had warrants issued against Simon Amick, Jesse Amick, Willie Amick and j Ernest Amick, for assault and bat- i tftrv of a hiah and aereravated nature f " J ~ o oo with intent to kill, by Trial Justice j J. W. Drebcr, for their arrest and J trial and said Trial Justice having ! failed to serve the papers, we recom-' inend that the Solicitor investigate \ the matter. j AVe thank his Honor and the Solicitor for kindness shown us.

When Kinard, the recogniz'd leading clothier of Columbia, says he has made a reduction in the price of line and stylish clothiDg, our people j know that he means exactly what he j j says, nothing more nor nettling less. j So, wben he announces this week in I these columns that be has made | big reductions, our readers known that they can buy suits at the prices advertised. If you want a nobby suit or fashionable gent's furnishing goods now is the time and Kinard's ? is the place to buy them. * * } Leap Year Privileges! | Two charming, beautiful and sweet young maidens, matrimonially inclined, started out recently to captivate bachelors and ensnare widowers i by darts from their bright eyes and fascinating ways. After searching the by ways for a victim they at last succeeded in cornering a popular and handsome widower whose reputation for basnfulness is proverbial, and there and then against the single blessedness of the aforesaid widower did lay seige to his heart and offered themselves a willing sacrifice upon the altar of love. The bashful young man blushed as he realized his predicament and how to out his dilemma ne Knew not. A happy . thought struck him and in much confusicn, he i proposed that they draw straws i and the one getting the shortest j would be the one whose proposal he ; would accept. Oar informant failed j to state who got the short straw, j hence we do not know whether a j pretty romance has been ruthlessly J nipped in the bud or a bridal tour to Maryland has been arranged. Deserving of Success. The live, progressive and enter- | prising firm of D. W. Shealy & Co., j of Leesville, informs the numerous j readers of the Dispatch, in another j column, that they have a large, varied : and well selected stock of hardware, i mill supplies, harness, whips, stoves j and tin roofing, which they are of- : fering as cheap as can be purchased in any other market. These gentlemen are hustlers and keeps things j moving about them. They buy the best goods in their lines and sell them at the lowest possible figure's. Their enterprise deserves success and we advise all those who have not yet traded with this firm to do so as it will certainly be to their interest. ^ * FSk I ?*r+m U.S.Joumzl of JMiexnt I ^ _ Prof. "W.

The practical working of the road machine was exhibited at this place last Monday in the presence of a large number of people. The work done by this machine was perfectly satisfactory to those who witnessed it in operation and showed that it will do all and a little more that the 1 agents claim for it. Among other ; things claimed, Mr. Rice says that it will easily do the work of forty men per day. Mr. Walter Barre, a member of the County Board of Commissioners and an experienced mechinists, who paid particular attention to all | the details, says he tried the ma- \ chine and is satisfied that it will do all that is claimed for it. The ma- j chine works sand hill roads excel lently, cleaning ditches, scooping j and throwing dirt to the middle of j the road leaving it higher than ! the sides and making a firm and I ? I solid road bed. There are but few roads in the county upon which the machine cannot be advantageously woi kcd. Don't forget that Mark's Restaurant furnishes, at all times, the very j best meals.

It seems that the people do not understand our rule for publishiag matter of this kind. There is no charge for the simple announcement, with age, etc, of the death of a person, but to extol the virtues of a deceased requires more space than we can conveniently give and besides such matter as a rule, is only interesting to the immediate family of the deceased and is therefore legitimate matter to be paid for and heDce as a matter of self defence we are compelled to charge for the publication of obituary notices. For a pain in the chest a piece of flannel dampened with Chamberlain's Pain Balm and bound on over the seat of the pain, and another on the back between the shoulders, will afford prompt relief. This is especially valuable in cases where the pain is caused by a cold and there is a tendency toward pneumonia. For sale by Julian E. Kauffmann. 11. Receiver's Sale of Bateshurg Cotton Mills.
