Ex-President Davis' New Book. ient The Town and County are being can vassed for Jefferson Davis' new book, The Rise and Fall of the Southern Con p to federacy. This book has been looked ual for eagerly since it was first known that the ex-President was at work upon it; igh, and the rapidity with which the book ling is selling shows the public interest felt i to in the author and the subject. It is a >ose book that should be in the library of Ad a every Southerner. The general scope of the book may be gathered from the following extract from the preface: of "A duty to my countrymen; to the itu- memory of those who died in defense of von a cause consecrated by inheritance, as ' well as sustained by conviction; and to der those who, perhaps less fortunate, staked has all and lost all in its behalf, has impell )er- ed me to attempt the vindication of their course and conduct. For this pur the pose I have decided to present an his ird. torical sketch of the events which pre . ceded and attended the struggle of the Southern States to maintain their exist rest ence and their rights as sovere4gn com rs, munities-the creators, not the crea tures, of the general government." "To the parents, the widows and the >t orphans of the Confederate dead, I offer the consolation that those for whom em they mourn died for the right-a will 'ille ing sacrifice on the altar of their coun try, where their memories, enshrined in the breasts of their people, will go down out in tradition to posterity, immortalized -om by valor in defense of honor, and mar tvrdom for liberty." ac--________ 2els Sallie Spriggins, one of our rural sis jed ters, had her picture taken the other o day, and the likeness was wonderfnl to behold, but no remedy like Portaline, or Tabler's Vegetable Liver Powder on- has ever been prepared.

Every ksseat was filled, and all 'he stnding kroom was occupied. The audience was delighted with the perf.ormance. Blind the Tom is a musical prodigy. Uncouth in md appearance, and almost idiotic in intel er- lect, he has musical powers that are the in- wonder of the world and that seem to 0. border on the supernatural. Without .w. education, and totally ignorant of the science of music, he plays with the per io fection of ease and accuracy the most ondifficult and complicated pieces: the itve only instruction he needs is to hear the t.piece played once or twice. Some of hen his peeculiar faculties were illustrated b ursday night on the stage. Mrs. ag- Clark played a long and difficult piece wd that she composed herself; Tom took the his seat at the piano and played it mnd throug'h without the slightest hesitation, ;sas if he had played it a hundred times. He gave an exact imitation on the piano :dof the drum and fife, of the hand organ at, and of thme music box. He played the 'W "Fisher's Horn pipe" with his right hand, an "Yanrkee Doodle" with is left, and the sang "Tramp. Tramp, Tramp, the boys oat are marching," all at tnle same time. l Ie also played several pieces of his own wn composition; one, a wonderful medley, ,ta- calledi the Battle of Manassas, in which a a hie imitated the advance of the two ar -to iies, the Confederates to the tune of E- "The girl I left behind me" on drum r-and fife, the Federals to the tune of i. "Dixie,"'the martiaml strains being heard he first faintly in the distance, growing hegradually louder till the field was reach ent ed ;then came the bugle's call to arms, ied the rattle of musketry and the roar of .ers cannon, with all the other accompani mni- ments of the great battle.' daTom never fails at the conclusion of d ar a piece to jump up and applaud himself Ervigorously. ]alf Tom also gave a matinee performanc:e all Friday that was well attended.

The municipal eampaign th was short: but long enough to engen- in der some had feeling, which we hope will not last. The injection of the ques tion of negro representation was unfor tunate. The result showed that it was a big mistake, whether done as a mat ter of policy or of justice. The negroes su went into the first convention and te clamored for representation on the Pool ra ticket; they didn't get it. and bolted in high dudgeon. They went to the see- T ond convention. and were a!lwed a i presentative on the Carlisle ticket. The presumption was that this act would se- th cure the negro vote for the Carlisle tick et. But it didn't. The negroes went b squarely back on the ticket. They took Wi off the negro on the Carlisle ticket, A scratched Mr. Langford from the Pool oi ticket, substituted the negro in his place, wi and voted the Pool ticket straight with & the exception of this change. This is apparent from a reference to the votes th cast. There were 450 votes cast; 130 se straights for the Carlisle ticket; 174 for la the Pool ticket; 146 scratched tickets. ti The votes stood: th FOR INTENDANT. C( J. P. P"ol, - - - 285 M. A.

Sun- fo day night, 3d instant, a barn or cow di house, or something of the kind, be longing to Mr. J. S. Blalock, of Mar tin's Depot, was burned by an incendi ary. The proximity of the barn to the t dwelling-house, and other circunstan- a ces, led to the belief that the purpose of N the incendiary was to burn the dwell- w ing-house and its occupants, Mr. Bla- w lock's family. Mr. Blalock set about to fe discov.er the perpetrator of the crime; r and became convinced that the incendi- rb ary was a negro woman living on his t plantation named Judy Metts. Satur- ce (lay, the 9th, he went to Trial Jus- cc tice N. S. Harris. at Clinton, six to miles distant; and procured a war- tt rant of arrest on the charge of arson. sI The Trial Justice put the warrant in the hands of Constable Sam'l Gary to be executed. He went to Mr. Blalock's B plantation and arrested the woman; and started with her to Clinton about 8 declock that night. About two miles bc above Martin's Depot, and nearly oppo site Mr. Henry M. Hunter's residence, M he and his prisoner were overtaken byj a crowd of men on horseback and in disguise. Some of the party carried the woman off in one direction, and others carried the constable in anotherT direction. His statement is, that he was kept in charge by the party for abouti an hour and then released with the command to "git!" which he lost no time in obeying. He proceeded to Clinton. The woman was found the next morning about two hundred yards from the road hanging to a tree dead. su The Coroner's.inquest revealed nothing; the verdict of the jury being that the de- o ceased came to her death by hanging at " the hands of persons to the jury un known-or words to that effect. She lir was bnried Monday by the colored peo pie. At what time of the day Saturday ca the warrant was given to the Constable, da and whether he made haste to commu nicate the fact of the lynching, are mat- d ters about which we have no informa- th tion. The woman was about thirty-five sa years of age, and leaves a husband and i eildren. So far as we are informed, no steps. have been taken looking to the discov- ti( ery of the lynchers. This is th'e busi- he ness of the Executive and of the officers and people of Laurens County. But te. the people of the whole State are inter- th ested in knowing whether crimes of this kind are to be passed ever in silence ce and unconern. We shall see. M The Sunday Magazine.
