Serenade.
The Band was out Saturday night.
Starting at Capt. Mazyck's, they next
proceeded beyond the creek and dis
coursed sweetly to the inhabitants of
Brooklyn. Nothing daunted by old
Boreas, who seemed to be blowing in
opposition, they tramped to Helena andi
played several lively pieces, to the de
light of the citizens. Tfhe Band is con
stantly improving, and deserve much
better instruments than some they have
to use.

The many friends of this gentleman

has been a pleased recipient of for near

he is still located at Brunswick, Ga.,
and that the entire family are in good

What Everybody Wants.
There are certain things that are al
ways in season, things that cannot be
done without either, consequently the
demand never ceases, everybody and
his wife wants them. Somec people
need them oftener than others, and yet
occasionally the phenomenon presents
itself of a man or woman who feels the
want but once in a life time, and once
supplied have need for no more. These
are the careful kind and are rare caises
we know a lady who has used one tin
keeer for twenty years and it is as good
to-day as whlenu first bought. Perhaps
she has no children. People with child
ren have to get the articles we will
dlesigate directly oftener than those
w ithout, children arc destructive and a
piece of common crockery or tine
cna (the ma tihe things we mean) is
Gourt.
Honi. A. P. Aldrich, Judge of the
Second Circuit, opened the Court of
General Sessions at Newberry Monday.
:)rd. IIe is one of the judges elected last
spring, and belongs to that class of
lawyers who have conferred honor on
the bar of South Carolina. Ilis record
on the bench, during his short adminis
tration in 1866 and 1667, as well as re
cently, is alongside of those of ONeall,
W'ardlaw and others, whose learning
has rendered the bench of the State ul
hustrious. Ills Honor went to work with
a will, and, with the assistance of our
able and active solicitor, the business is
progressing very satisfactorily. From
the number of criminal cases oa docke!.
it is not probable that much can be
done on the civil side, as Court must
close at the end of two weeks.
Mr. J. C. S. Brown was made Foe
man of the Grand Jury. Ilis Honor
charged the Grand Jury as follow,
Monday morning:
GENTLEMEN OF TiIE GRAND JURY.
Fourteen years ago, President John
son, without a shadow of Constitutional
authority, appointed that virtuous pa
triot and distingrnished citizen. the Hon.
Benj. F. Perry, Provisiond Governor
of South Carolina. Under his auspices
a convention was called and an election
held to make a new St&t6 Cunstitution,
which resulted in the Constitution of
1865. That convention, although not
Constitutionally called, observed all the
forms of law and gave to the people of
the State a new organic law which was
acceptable an(d in which thle'y acquies
ced. Legislative, Executive and Ju
d(iciary departments were organized
and all the machinery of State govein
ment put in motion.
B.ut it was qoon seen that this was a
hollow decepizon, for the $tate iwa, t
the same time, put under the rule of a
Military Commander, who controlled
the Governor, revised the Legislature,
reversed the decisions of the Appeal
Court and arrested the Judgments of
the Ci'it Ciurts. I h-ld my firt
Court in Charleston, in February, 1866,
Gen. Sickles being in command of the
Military Department of North and
South Carolina. A white man was
convicted of Larceny. As the law then
stooa I had io alternative i: to sen
tence him to the whipping post. But
the General had,.issued an order pro
ibiting the corporal punishment of
persons of color. When the sentence
was published, I was summoned before
is District Commander, escorted
through the streets of Charleston to his
Headquarters, and required to revoke
the sentence of the lawv. When he
learned that I had no power to do this
the convict we released and turned
loose upon society. The facts were re
ported to Governor Orr, who had a cor
res)ondence with Gen. Sickles, that
ad no satisfactory result, and I an
nounced here that I would not go
through the solema farce of holding a
Court whose judgments could be thus
rrested by all the little Provost Mar
shals throughout the State. A like in
terference took place in North Carolina
soon after. Guv. Worth reported the
:ase to the President, who issued an or
er controlling the District Command
ers, and I resumed my duties.
Gen. Canby succeeded Gen. Sickles,
ad in the Spring of 1867, issued an
rer commanding the Judges to draw
Jurors from the qualified voters, to obey
which forced the Judges not only to
set aside the law of the State, but to vio
late the oath prescribed by the Consti
ution. We met, drew up a paper set
ting forth the law and the oath of of
fce, in which it wvas clear that we could
ot comnply withl the ordler, and for
warded it to the General Commanding,
ie took no notice of it, and I announced
t Edgefleld, that I could not and would
ot obey thie order. For which I was
emoved and Judge Platt, a citizen of
Michigan, wvho had lately removed to
the State, wvasiappointed in my place.
I hare thus briefly and rapidly recall
d these hist.oric fa'cts to showv you how
anomalous was our condition ! It wvas
pretended that we were a sovereign
State, within the Union, wvith all the at
tributes of a State, Constitution, Legis
lative, Excutive, and Judicial Depart
ments, District Officers, Sheriffs, Clerks,
rdinaries, Tax Collectors, Magistrates,
and Cor.stables. And yet the order of
the Department General, the District
Commander. or the local Provost Mar
shal could arrest the judgment of the
highest Court in the land, set aside an
Act of the Legislature and stay 'die br,nd
>f the Governor. Was there ever such
a farce presented to the wvorld! But,
gentlemen, bad as this was, what suc
eeded was infinitely worse. The Coni
stitution of 1868 was adopted, in wvhich
there was a deliberate attempt t.o de
stroy the very civilization of this grand
old State. And but for the virtue and
the courage of the people. true to their
traditions, they would have succeeded.
I never doubted, from the first, but what
we would throw oftf this alien and servile
government; we shiould have done it
sooner, we could have done it sooner.
But, so it is, and so it ha:s been, in all
the ages of the world, mercenary nmo
tives clog and impjede p)atriotic im
pulse. The sickening details of thme ad
ministrations of Scott, Moses and C'ham
berlain,need not he recalled, they are too
humiliating. Tue policy adopted in 1876
would have been equally successful in
171. But the wisdom of the State
thouhgt otherwise, and ou r redlemp
tion was postponed ffvte years.
Just see what has been (lone! Why,
gentlemen, the money that these alien
far exceeding anything enjoyed before
the war blessed the land, because it
would have been universal. But so it
is, the hand of misfortune has been laid
heavily upon us. Let us not look back,
but forward. The good God has chas
tened us, it becoies us to bow in hum.
ble submission to His will and, remem
bering our traditions and glorious his
tory, more proud with brave hearts and
resolute purpose to make South Caroli
na grealter in the future than she was in
the past.
His Honor gave the Usual lirectionls
as to the duties of the Grand Jury in
examining the public oflices. Ile com
mented on the untidy and uncomforta
ble appearance of the Court room, on
the fact that some of the jurors were
compelled to sit on hard ienehe; ii
stead of chairs, and called their atten
tion to tile importance of having a suit

found Hlarmion not guilty.
The Band Fair.
Agreeably to announcement Mower's
[all was thrown open Monday evening
by the fair managers of the Fair, gotten
up for the benefit of the cornet band
and right gallantly did the young men
and maidens, together with a goodly
number of maturer age, respond to
the invitation, thus cheerfully signify
ing their acceptance of the situation,
and we feel proud that the people of
New>erry never turn their backs upon
any effort put forth by the ladies, but
are willing on any and every occasion to
lend their assistance in a good cause.
t was an animated and pleasing scene
which presented itself to our vision as
after paying our dime at the door we
entered the hall already comforta
bly filled. The oyster and meat tables
were already occupied by those who
a' pased"' the evening nmeal at home and
boarding house; the cake, fruit, choco
late and kniek nack tables; lemonade
fountain, post office and everything
else pertaining to the Fair were all in
successful operation, not excepting the
inexhaustible "grab bag." From what
we saw we feel assuredl that it was
largely successful, not only~ in a pecuni
ary point of view, but in the enjoyment
afforded.
We learn that the Fair will be con
tin ued th.'s (Tuesday) night, and our
advice to those who were there on the
first night is to go again, and to those
who were not out to be certain to attend
to-night.
The amount realized Monday night
ws$50.
