Tt took place :t the Middleton Pintation on the Ashley river, and was An occasign of great festivity. The hip py participants of the generous enter. tainmep.t return thanks in a great card of .knowledgement. The French Civil War. The latest accounts from France show that the bloody and cruel contest raging hetween tbe two parties, is still appar entiv no nearer a termination than be re. It is indeed fearful to contemplat the horrors of the situation. G;rman ltervention perhaps alone can put a slop to a contest so fratricidal. There can be no doubt that more dam.ge has been done to the beautiful city of Pari., in the destruction of works of art, and . the-desecration of temples of worship, by this savage warfare of brother against brother, than was done during the whole siege of the Prussian army, and up to %he time of their evacuation of the city. Even the women are arrayed in bloody ranks, whole regiments of them having been organized and armed by the Com munists. The Archbishop of Paris and the Abbess de Guerry and Crossce are to be executed. The Prussians are be ing stregly reinforced, and the fight is still ment ned in ll its dread realities, F Yot neither Communists nor Versailists seen to gain much advantage. What will be the end ? .The Condemnuation of Violence. The action cf the late Convention in resolving to aid in quelling the disorders which have existed, and to some extenft doF still,, was most wise. The voice of so hr.fiuential a body of men, some of the best in the State, raised in solemn judg ment and calm deliberation, in reproba -on .of violence, disorders, and secret .associaitions, will have an effect produc tive of good, and being heeded most.'lead to a reformation ardently des.irec by the thinking umen of the country. A rebuke so stern, arid yet so persuasive in advice, cannot fai1 upon listless ears. Aad no other conclusion could the Con vecntion h-ave come to. If reason now * .oes not resume its sway, then indeed . as there no use for a Convention of the Scople's delegates, anid the end must be a rse flitn its foreshadowings. Corrui - Im, mnis-governmnert, theft, and a host .fother evils, may not wisely be reme diecd by greater wrongs,-for "two wrongs aver made a right." We are r ot ipi> r.ed. to urge submuission, by any, meains, d:~ feel as sensibly and deeply as any in.u:cubus which cruThes, and the. fet ter which bind the w.hole body po itic, t we cannot recomminendl the use of viO. -nce as a remedy to rid us of the exist :evils, nor recognize the right of tak -;the la-. into ones own hand until ali * .er measures have failed.

The Coua- t" ty Jail they pronounce insecure, as not being u a such a condition as to prevent the escape te Df prisones, and the wall surrounding the UT building is giving w.ay in one place and ar ought speedily to be repAired. Among the t prisoners they found no complaint-they it were well fed and had their several wants fu promptly attended to. The Court House in they also found in good condition. They 1Y visited the various offices, found them in Cr ood order, with books and papers in proper tI place aud tile. The Probate Office was not t accessible a- Mr. Leathy, the present Judge, I w:'s abcnt from :owu. The Treasurer's Of- " fice was also vi-ite 1. an his hoo!;s exam- G inel, these were found in good order, and, as at far as they coa:i s,e, proper!y balanced. P Trial Justice Fur-nani's Ofire they found in tt good order, hook4, p-ipers, &c., all in phice In ::nd file. nti kept aind bilanced in a proper T anil intelligtent m.iner. The sme they a found to he the case in the ex-imination of to ex-Trial Justice J. T. Peterson's books and fa papers. As to Trial Justice Lng, the keep C' ing of his bookz, and his ability as an officer, it is wi:h the deppcst humili:y that they are constrained to make such an unfavorab!e re, port. A- an officer they unhci4taingly pro nounce him utterly incompetent in c%cry re- ty spect. IA cau neither read nor write suffi ciently to b inteiliibc to any one ex:. himself; and as a n.tural co:ieq.ence his D books are in no order, or in other words are Im not kept at all. T::ey find that he has re, d: ceived fines but has neither turned them over W to the County Treasurer, nor otherwise c. at counted for tLu same. They, therefore, un- r hesitatingly, for the peace, dignity and pro- sc perity of the community, recommend his P speedy removal. r' In tbe present Board or County Commis- at sioners they find, after a careful investiga- 0 tion, a system of corruption, bribery and theft stupendous to behold-a system of SC wholesale robbery which was to them almost pZ reposterous. In examining the books, pa- t pers, & c., of the old Board of County Con- b missioners they found indabitable evidence ne of perjury on the part of one Samuel Dogan th and Thomas M. Jenkins, by probating and w paying the same account twice. Dog:n has bi sold the proceeds of the poor house farm and t:< :as never aceoanted for the monies arising CC from such sale, and also sold a horse belon- es ing to the same institution, and has likewise th not accountel for the proceeds of such sale ti And as to the new Board, they find that they til indulge in ail species of fraudl and eorrutption; ti: and, as the Grand Jurors are informed, this p1 Board of Comm issioners have never visited a the poor house to examine into the condition et of its unfortunale inmates, as has ahuv:rs ai heretofore been the custom. Simneon Young, at one of the aforesaid Board, has had himself elected Superintendent of the poor hou<e with a salary of live hundred dollars, anal p sub-lets the same for two hundred dollars on his own account, the same being paid by the Treasurer of the County, on recommendation I of Yo-.ug. They also found a cheek for one .T hundred and twenty-five dollars in favor ofg Simeon Young. passed and approved by the Board, of which he is Chairman; said check was given for no consideration. They also find that the aforesaid Simeon Young hats bought half a dozen chairs from Mr. Rl. Y.I Leveil, which were paid for by the County and has appropriated the same to his own use. Said Board of Commis<ioners have alo boght a horse, buggy an.] harness, the sa'ne I being paiid by, anid is retained now at the Ix pese of the County, and the buggy and lhar ness used entirely for private purposes. Trhey et itd, too. such a loose m::nagement in tlhe ipl bi.ing of horse power, and the procuring of mT supples for the poor hou;e, tihat they recoin mend the abolition of the presenft system and te establishment of'one 'which would not be so liable to such gross abutse. They also find that the Act of 18-73-70, entitled "An Act to provide for thte care of' the poor," See. 11, Pge 371, authorizing the establishmen of a dition:al poor farnme, is liabule to so much u abuse tthey respect fully recom mend its abo!is ti tion. They further find that the said Board h of Countty Commissioners htave paidlstuch cx- a orbi:nt prices fo>r wvork and supplies for the 1 por house, as to :moutnt to two or three d titcs their valce at the time said work tan supp!cs were obtained.

The nd Ju:ors find that four blind inmates e truly objects of commiseration, being de -ived by Providence of the faculty of sight, ey are thus left to the mercy of an unkind atron anti an ignorant Superintendent. e present wants, not only of these, but of 1 the inmates, should at once be attended . They find a good rock quarry on the rm attached to the poor house, which ould yield a considerable revenue to the unty, if properly managed, as many have ked to obtain rock there, but have been re sed. As to ti:c roads and Inghways in tile Cour , the Grand -Jurors find them, with a few -c.',hs, in a ver' bad cobdition. One -idge in the South E;st of the County, near ominiek's, from complaints made, is in al ost impassible condition, consequently mgerous to the travelling public; they :uld therefore recommend that measures once be taken to carry into execution the ad laws enacted by the last General A nib!y. They would likewise present the actice so prevalent throug.iout this Coun , of violating the sanctity of the Sabbath, A disturbing the quiet ot the night' by the mmon use of fire-arms; and th-it they re et to fnd that theirCounlty has been the ee of violent disturbances, by disguised rties, commonly called Ka Klux. That ey raise their voices against all vio!crce - whomsoever committed. Wrong can ver restore right. And they hold that it is e duty of all good citizns to rebuke all ong, expose all corruption, and endeavor. peaceable means, to achieve that restoraN n to purity, economy, and an honest and ual administration of the laws, which is senial to the security and prosperity of elr belov6d S:ate. Arl they farther dis ictly declare that their fiidings and inves stins have not been dictated by any par an spirit, aol they c.m show ample and an proof, of all their findings, whether ainst crime, fraud or corruption: Consid ig that the dutties devolving upon them Graind .rurors, have been dischamrg'ed, the moe is most respectfully stibmitted.

The bell of this Church having been broken, was recently sent to the foundry for recast iag. If it be possible to find the original model, the bell may be retur-ed to us in all it-: sweetness of tone. At any rate, as soon as possible, the congregation will be again stnmmnmuted to the sacred edifice by the pleas ant voice ol the bell.

That lie has liel to the party so long has beei a source of mortificatiou to many. Im pertant services rendered by him already, give great satisfaction. May his example be followed soon by others. THE PRESENTMENT of the Grand Jury fur nished us by officer, of the Court, and found in another colunin, will be read with much interest. So pl:ii is the statement of facts contained in this admirable report,-the best one of its kind that we have cvcr read-that i needs no conment or reference from us. We simp!y compliment the intelligence of tie Grad Jury,and the patriotim displayed in a virdict which C int:ot ail to meet a wide approbation. Too MA.y Donos.-A well meaning but - unfortunate editor lately advertised that lie would take "a good dog in payment for a year's subscription." The next day, he says that 23 dogs were taken to his office; and, two days afterward, a score or more of far mers, living at di.tances of from eight to twenty miles, appeared to subscribe for the narcr, tendering dogs in p:iyment And, to cap the c'iMax, th..E X tyor of ti . tifa him that a i of S1 must be paid on eve:y dorg owned in the place! Hbad we been in his place, we'd have turns ed our attention to making sansages. "For ways that are dtrk," some subscribers to country papers do beat all. 11oME INDUSTRY.--Farmers, planters, mill-wrights or any one else needing ma chinery, cannot do better than to apply to t Messrs. Goidsmith & Kind, of Columbia, who have an extensive foundry, and are not only prepared for, but do a large business. All kinds of farming machinery are manufac tured by them in approved style and with dispatch, and are guaranteed to give satis faction. They also execute, in handsome patterns, castings for enclosing gardens, cemeteries, &c. Many persons send North for articles in their line, forgetting that just as good, and oftentimes better, can be had right at honic, and with the considerable saving of freigtli. It is well then to think of this, and if mill,, screws, g:ns, presses, rail ings or what nor, in the irotn line lie needed, send to Gjldsmith & Kind, Calumbia; by do ig so home industry will he encouraged. SrFLE5.-Spifiles" is the hiero now, John having played our. Spiffies by the way though, is decidedly the laziest man on tot) of the green earth. The way we know this is that lie w.is seen under trying c:rcum stances the other d.ay, and we venture to say that ninety-nine men out of a bundred unadr the same circums:ances would have acted differently. A poor draymuan was about I busting himself wide opeti in fr:antic:ally en - dcavoring to move a hog-head of bacon, and 'Sp.files cojoiy looked on and lent no kind, Iasitig hind .

CAK E SPaEADs-The alteadly famous~ l'i!ltimore corner will become more so whe:a it is known that it has in btulk a box of ginger cakes, each of which nmighit serve for a bed spread. Mothers will find them an exellent substitute for quilt<, as when the -little ones get restless under cover, instead of kicking and crying and m iking nigh:t h ideous 3with their noise, until they arc quieted after the nsnal approved style, iau-l watking s~ up papa besides, all she has to do i< to insert e one corner of the cake into litty, twety, darling's great, big, ugly month, and ihc difficulty is settled at once. In the morning there is no cover to fold up either, the little 'darling has taken it into his bread basket. Oh d dear, what a matn i s Wicker, embrace him ye mothers, and little children clasp him round the knees, his ginger cakes are so good. SoLDIER.-A detachment of soliers ar .rived here during the past week, nuttberitig a twenty mecn, and under command of Lictut. Miller. The detachment is encamped in drear of the Summers' residence. This is not y. the first visit of Lier. Miller, he having been r on speci ml service bere before. We are not a certain, but imagine that lie is attached to 0 Newberry, and when the cruel war is over, Ih and the millenium comes, the time when C swords shall be turned into pruning hooks, when it shall be no longer necessary to is mount harbed steeds to fri;;ht the souls of is fearful adversaries, and bruised armts shatlI y be hung up as montuments, we believe he will finally settle in our midst. IIis uniform ' courme<y and gentlemonly bearing have won e for him the respect of the entire community. A SERENtADE.-In the langtage of' ottr elong lost Schtnit t, a "serenade was brought e to our house" on Thurs day night. It catme :t in through the gate, took poseession of the piizz:i, discoursed divinely at one fron t win a dow, and crossed over and woke the echoes tat the other window. No other sound was Sheard. All was still in the house. The sere Snaders then took acenitral position in tihe piaz za and rendered "hIome, sweet home." Was . there nobody in the house? Of course there was, and just there was the trouble. There s were two distinguished musicians inside, -(Mr. Denck, from Columbia, domiciled with u- the local, and the other modestly prevents e naming). Which of these the serenade was n ''brough t to," it was impossible to decide, e Both kept mum-neither dared to appropri ate it to himself. The outside musicians, al% Y roost despairing, retrograded to the street, Iand tben struck up, very appropriately we e thought, the familiar melody, '"Stop dat eknocking, dere's no unse knocking at dat door any more, dere's no use knocking at d dat door." We could not stand this, and .leaping out of bed raised a window, and 'though our fears had been greatly excited g that it might be Klu Klux, we boldly. spoke h a word of thanks, and regretted that having g been placed on low diet by the family physi~ d cian, and ahalf wine glass l of Motte & d Tarrant's Liver IRegulator, evr thing else ol a better cha.racter h'id been placed out of -reach. We offered them the Regulator, and S sorrow to say that it was declined. We are n satisted that it would have done them every onie nome good. They then immediately le f. If they feel :tggrieved, we do sincerely 1 egret it. the itegahiror wans the best we had, r :d h ighly esteemted. and i; was cifered in CouRT.-The General Sessions Court com menced its sitting on Monday last, his Honor h Montgomery Moses, in the chair. It is not t known bow long it will sit. The first day, p Monday, it exhibited incipient signs of fa% t Tigne, and discontinued sitting quite early. P On Tuesday it sat from 10 till 2, and in d consequenceof e:cessive labors, the incipient c signs of fatigne devcloped themselves in an v aggravated form, and it was deemed prudent r to recess over till ten next day. One'sardine' case was carried through successfully and in T the time. Wednesday at ten precisely the crier open- a ed, and the honorable court sat, and contins ned until two, once more, when it adjourned over-to meet at the early hour of ten next !r morning. One reason for the early adjourn ment on this day may have been, that an of ficial of Court was seen napping during the whole interesting proc -edings, and it was e thought prudent to give him an opportunity to go home to bed. Another, that most of the jurors lived gre:t distances away. And another, to please the four nigror jugers, f who it is well known don't like all day jobs. I Never:heless, a whule hog case was disposed C f. Thursday promptly at ten, every man, who felt the importance of the work, was ready to sit igain. Nothing occurred to in terrupt the general order. A riot case was commenced,and progressed to a point of great interest, when the hour of two arrived, and the habit of adjourning being so strong, it was so ruled, and the time was fixed for next day at ten precisely. Regularity is a great virtue, a jewel, and its cultivation is heartily recommended. We have a beauti., ftl example here, and of its effects. It might be urged as an argument in objection, that there are two or three score of men attending Court,whose time is as precious as gold dust, at this season; tbat Gen. Green is bringing his forces to bear against them; and that they live miles away, and it is important for them to be at home, and that it would be better to break a rule, and fall into irregu' laritics, and even sit a whole day out than exercise this great virtue too relig;oniely. Dut we argue not so, circumstances alter cases. There are periods in all histories I when it becomes necessary to make sacri' fices, and what matters it if a few crops are injurea, cr even lo,t. Principle should never be lost sight of. These men aru used to los be.ide<, and then tbc negro jurors love to sit indefini:ely :!id draw out of the treasury. Suppose by c&se sitng 'he basiness could r be accomplished in a week, .wych from present appearancies N ill occupy three f them? What does it mitter, when we re I r flect on the lesson learned-a lesion of pa tience and punctuality, which every mother's son needs a full share of in these degenerate days. Let them grin and bear it. If she knows herself, and bhe thinks she do, let the Court have its way. Fifty years hence what will it matter? But we have not time to philosophize. Fifth day, Filday, after an exhaustive ses sion, in which was finished the riot ca;e, at a trifling expense of from three to five hun, dred dollars-it might have cost more-ad. journed at three. One party only found guil ty of simple assault. 1 Saturdav, nnder the circamstances, might w ith propriety have been observed as a holi day, but unlike 'Barkis' the court was un willtng, and it wits determined to sit right on This ~ wa bully. George Gordon (not BIen net), colored, indicted for killing Levi Gar rett, white, while instigated by the devil, (as te clerk read, though it is doubted if there was any coilusion between the parties,) took pl.cee in the baox, an-i sar. 1ti.s privilege of dejecc!in'jurors was execised considerably, and without regard to rank or previous cot'. dition. F.xamination of wit nesses concluded, Court exercised its prerogative and adjo rn, ed at three. Rest, rest, was absolutely indis pensiile. Woulid forry hours stumele ? Yes ! Monday morning found the court serene, and all sitting ! The broken thread in G;ondon's case resumed, and pu-lhed with vigor. About two the jury retired, atnd the (our', we are plenCd to state, refreshed by the rest ab>ove mentioned, cotntied to sit utitil fotnr o'clock. ThIiis was right, and an evidence of iriprovemlent, and perhaps cre te week is ou', it wil! sit all day long, till night comes on. We hope so, as it will afford an opportutnity to teachers and scholars at tending~ school, an<j who do not get ont till three in the afterno8n, to look itt. Rome was not bnilt in a day, and we mttst exerctse pttience: :all will be right in the tend. At twelve midnight, the jury became exhautsted and b;eggedl to he released-verdicr, ntis-trial Thiiis was thre biggest day, if the tnight be in luded. .\As bjefore stated it is not known when this Court will adiurn, as the criial c:leadar is batrely entered, nor whe:her the civil will be reaced' at all. And who is to blame that it is such an insufTerably slow drag. Not the Jtudge', nor the Solictor, nor the lawyers, htt. the anomalous times in wh' !i we live. lInn dreds of trifling cases brlottyt forward by ir responsible negroes, w ho neither know the trouh!e or~ expense etailed,nor care,:tnd who, eren after a cem-c is nude out, nine times out of ten fail to appear at all, this it is which ocks the wheels, and indifference and lezi ness is the resu:t. And not the least of the evils which have helip l to produce tils state of thing;, is the v..St sccabthtion tof petty cases thirownl ilto court by thc incompetence of growlv ignorant an.I stupid triail justices. M.any of thetse ab,or:c'ts, we arceghad to say. hve been removed, and good men sub,citu'e , thanks to te sensible coturse pursued by Goy.I Scott, :md:er advice of some of the "intelli,. gencte"' here:ofore said to be utnava ilabhle. Fon the sake of decency, order, hone- ty, and economy let others follow. Sad, s:d, and one cannot help but mark the contrast between the present:and the past. When will thtese degenerat e days have an end, antd we have a respectable, aye honorable Court once more A LAns.-On Saturday evening last, before bed time, our community were startled by thie sharp and rapid report of fire-arms. the first thought was K. K's. After the firing had ceased, and there seemed to b)e no danger, judging from the quiet which reign ed, the local ventured otut, but wisely took an opposite direction from whence the sound h ad come, and not from any sense of rear at all, but that it was most probable the greater number of persons would be at that remote point, and of course the better would be the chance for information. And so it proved. It was ascertained that whiskey was at the bottom of it, and that while one Individual was exercising at the new moon, another objected to the foolish waste of powder, and a slight misunderstanding was the conse quence. The moon escaped injury, but not so a good double barrelled shot gu, which was smashed into smithereens against a sap ling, one of the belligerents mistaking the tree for his opponent. Neither of the mis guided men received bodily injury. La:er there was other firing, but prudence being a marked characteristic in the local's composi tion, he had retired from the field-of distant observation-and learned nothing of it. On Sunday morning one of Mr. Nathan Uun te's miuch cows was found dead, but wheth er resulting from the above firing or not, is not 1:nown. TE STAR TRoUPE.-We are happy in aving the opportunity of calling attention y the advertisement of this deserving com, any of native artists, and to state that all heir arrangements completed, they will ap ear before a Newberry audience on Thurs ay evening, and present a programme of ntertainments, which cannot fail to meet rith warm approbation. Having had the leasre ofrseelng the Troupe in rebearsaf, ach one of which is a Star, not only in ame, but in excellence of -cliaracter, we ronounce them hard to bear, and if they do , well before a large and seleet atdienct uch as this town is able to produce, as they id in rehearsal, and before a few old vete ans, then they will achieve a triumph as attering to thzemselves as gratifying to the itizens of this town. We bespeak for them , rousing hotue, packed in and running v.r. In tils connec;ion, -te beg that the ioys, usually so noi y and offensive with heir whistling, thumping, lond talkirg and aughing, on all public occasions, will re rain from a like cxliibition of their remark le talents, ju:t for this one time, if no nger. If this gentle hint will not suffice, t them bear in mind that a police force will ,ttend to preuerve order. CnAPS. "Parson I wish I could take my gold with ie," said a dying deacon to his pastor. "It iigbt melt," was the consoling reply. An editor in Alabama having read an arti le in Hall's Journal of Health advising that usband and wife should sleep in sel a -ate ooms, says: "Dr. Hall can sleep when and rhere he chooses, but for himself lie intends ) sleet where he can defend his wife ag tinst its and all other nocturnal foes as long as e has got one to defend." Some one says that the quotation "Blessed the man who invented sleep," is very well, ut the man who invented flap-jacks and 2aple sugar is more to be blessed. It is said that the "editor's drawer" in Iar er's magazine, is made up by a woman. So re a great many editor's drawers. The young ladics of the Female Seminary ill have their annual Pic-Nic on this Friday, t Major Jones' tannery, instead of the Mill n Bush River. So much the better, as there ill be no danger run either from railroad xplosions or faling into the river. We hope bey will have a gay time. A certain professor in the line of tacehin:I 'oung ideas how to shoot, certainly has hicken on the brain. Every time he meets is be says "chicken." Not being addicted a crowing we feel indignant.

W-POI SONOUS MEDI CINE:. --The theory that the virus of dis ease can he safely counteracted by doses o poiton, is false atad dangearous. Within the last twenty-five years, tnt less th;.n a score of virulent poisona have beeni adde-k to the repoAitory of the medical profession. They ar given in snaall doses, otherwise they wold destroy life immerdiatey; hait even iti mn::e gn'amvittes, they produtce, imnately, ver' disastroats effects. It is unwise anad unpilosophiceal to emnproy, as remedies, powerful anda it:sidious drtugs, which, in su~j-igatinig otne disease, son the seeds ot another still maore timatanageable. None of these terrible med.icamients operates with as much directe:ass and certainty upon the causes of disease as HIostetter's Stom ach Ditters, a ltnie and corrective, without a single delcterious iagredient in ts composition. Arsenic andi quinia are given for initermaittents ; bromnide of potas sima for r.ervous dlisorders ; strychuine and prussic acid for general de bility ; mercury, in various formis, for liver complaint ; prepa rations of chaloroformn and opiuma for sleep lessness ;and yet these deadly drugs do ntot conpare, as specifies for the diseases above nurerated, with that wholesome vegeta ble invigorsant and alterative, while they arc all so pernicious that it is astonishing any phsicianm should take thec responsibaility of prescribinig them.
