and that he has not yet done so.

'T'he Judge, ini his charge, -said, "I
leem it my dut to-say to, you, gentle
nen, tpit"ill t -a abut the past
ervices of the prisoner," (as. a soldier
mud Democrat), "has nothing to do wvith
his casd."Yon are to be geverned by
he law-imevideiee. Sad 'will it be
or theSt4.when outside influences
re alIn~ i~ o come into Court and
nterfete with the administration of
ustice." He charged, as a matter of.
aw, that Wheeler was Whites'
uccessor. The State must make out
ts ease accordin to the indictment.
le said the question for the. jury was
vbtfier.Whites was ever lreasurer,
rhether he had~ public moneys 'in his
ands, and if so. did he retire from
>ffice and fail-to tuirn them over to his
uccessor, ivrithin thirty-~days precedihg
he first of June, 1882.
On the last point the charge was-not
lear, but it seemed to be directly in
avor of the prisoner.
TIhe jury retired at about 6.39 P. K~,
mud remained in the jury room till 12
'clock. .The result was a mis-trial.
[he jury stood 9 for conviction and 3
~or acquittal.
The crowd in the cot- room during
be trial was not very large; but IJi
arogres~s of the case was watched with
ibsorbinig interest.
'A Fire Department-Mass Meeting.
A mass meeting of the sitizens of
fewberry, called by the Town- Coun
sil, at the request-of-the Merchants'
associat-ion, was heIlIn thie Opera
House, Monday night, for the purpose
f considering the matter of organiz
Mig a fire department for the town of
fewberry. The meeting was organ
zed by the election o 1r~ Y.~J. Pope,
is chairman, anid Mr. 3. E. Bro*u,1-as
seretary.
Mr. Pope, on taking his seat as
3hairman, stated the object of the
neeting, and said that the experience
f our town is sufficient evidence of
:he necessity of taking some-action
ooking to the establishment of a fire
iepartment. Our present appliances
re inadequate ; and the city Fathers
ave not the means to provide a suita
ble department. The Town Council
nay, levy a tax of two mills, but they
fare not go farther. -'They have been
rying to pay off the floating indebted
ess of the town, but the town is still
in debt-and all the available revenne
will be needed to carry on tihe affairs
,f the town. He then declared the
meetng ready for busines~s.
Mr.M ot moved that a committee
f five be appoiuted to see what can
be raised by subscription, and tQ as
sertain the probable cost of engi ne,
tsterns. and soforth; the committee
to repoi-t to a subsequent meeting.
M[r. Foot said that prompt action is
needed. -
Mr. J. E. Brown regretted to see so
ittle enthusiasm on a matter of so
great importance. He said If men
expect to remain here and do business,
they must protect the town. Imme
diate and prompt action should be ta
ken. A fire department would great
y enhance the value of property by
makingf it safe. Newberry is too far
bidin matters of this kind.
The President reada letter from Mr.
T. L. O'Neall, chief of thelTire De.
ppmnt of Chaleston, offerig
lgtenigine in good repair, withia
two-wbeel reel, for*10OVJ a truck etc..
for 4500;~ and a second hand hose ai
60:eents a foot. -
MrGeo: GHiand
as- the r matter to be.esidsed
An engine would be useless without I
good sply of water
Mr. Mower said that he objected t<
the method-proposed, whilehe thoughf
an effective ire departament was high
ly desirable As we are seeking the
benefit of,&he. whole town, the prop
erty of the town- should ratably bear
the Fxpense. Tax;ation, is' the most
feasible scheme: If .th Citizeus of
the town would tition the legisla
ture for the authority to levys special
tax, there is little doubt that their
request would be granted.
-..r;Werber, Jr., thouht that
immediate action. was need ; and it
would -not -be wise to wait for special
legislature. We should act promptly.
'Mr. Brown said that a taxo two
mills on the taxable propertyof the
town would not be burdensame, and
would give. $2000. The loss-byfire-the
other day was much greater than this.
Besides the insurance companies speak
of withdrawing- unless something is
done in-this matter.
Mr. Foot's motion was unanimously
adopted.
The chair appointed the following
committee : Mess. M. Foot, R. L. Mc
Caughrin, G. S. Mower, B. H.. Wright
and W. T. Tarrant. Mess. McCaugh
rin andi Mower deelined. The chair
-appointed in their stead, Mess. Allen
Johnstone and B. H. Cline.- Mr.
Johnstone declined, saying that he
did not believe that the movement
duldceeed. "We can't-keep a'vol
untee : company, and e% are not abie
to keep a paid company." The chair
then appointed Mr. J. E.Brown. Mr.
Brown-ose and. to say some
tart 'tings &bout iea stdl ng
duties thathefth dsir' but
e was eminded by the chi he
was out of order:
On motion of Mr. Packer. the night
pf the 19th inst. was fixed for the next
nieeting.
On motion of Mr. W. T. iarrant, it
was decided that the Town Couneil be
requested to. have the Babeoelc Fire
Extinguisher. of the Hook a6d L4d
der-Co.; repaired, under the draop
of Mr. G#litu I. -
On motion of Mr. Werber, the
thanks of the community were ren
dered to the Hook and Ladder Co.,
for gallant services.
On motion- of Mr. Jno. Fair, the
newspapers were requested -to give
full reports of the meeting.
On motion of Mr;W. R. Wallace, the
meeting adjourned.
The meeting was rather tame ; and
the belief of many of those present, is
that the movement set on foot will
fail.. We should like to see it other
wise.
Charge to the Crand Jury. -
On Monday morning 'the Grand
Jury was organized with Calit. S. A.
Hunter as foreman, and Judge Wither
spoon charged, in substance, as fol
lows: Gentlemen,- You have beep
summoned by the State, ',o the dis
charge of important piblic duties, at
this and-.two succeedig terms ; the
nature of youir duties was-disclosed in
the oath which you have just taken.
The peace and security of:the commu
nity depend upon the, faithful and
impartial discharge of thcrduties.
When you see thatthe laW has been
violated, it is your duty, without re
spect of persons, to bring the mat
to the atteition of te Court.
my duty to charge you that any mem
ber of a .Grand Jury who voluntarily
discloses the secrets of the jury room,
not only obstructs the administration
of public justice, Ibut violates the
sacred obligation of his -oath. You
are not to try the merits of the eases
brought to your- attention and decide
as to the guilt or innocence olthe par
'ties- accusedl; but you arejt~o decide
whether aprn'face case of -guilt has
been established; whether the evidence
will justify you in sending the party
accused to Court for trial.
The bills handed to'you by the so
licitor first demand your attention ;
after that, it is your duty to inquire
diligently and faithfully into- the pub
lie affairs; of your County,-- and see
whether the dutiesof the public officers
have been faithfully administered.
*Youshould inquire'whether the tax
es paid for public educatiori are ex
pended as the law directs and for the
benefit of the public.
-The. County Comniissioners are in
vested with large authority. The law
relating to the public roads may be
defective, but the County Commis
sioners have the authorit to collect
taxes for working f.,e road andkeep
ing the bridges in repair. And these
matters should be attended to. When,
because of the miisafe condition of a
bridge, any one is injured in his per
son, or property, on account of the
negligence of the Commissioners,~the
County may suffer.
'It is your duty to see thit the affairs
of the poor 'house are faithfully and
economically administered. 'Private
individuals will not attend to these
matters. and if you fail to do so, these
public duties will not be attended to.
I umake this charge in a general way,
for I do'not know that there has been
any dereliction on the part of your
public officers.
You should examine the books of
your Treasurer, and if necessary, call
to your assistance a person conversant
with these'bcoks.
You should ascertain whether your
trial justices are corrupt or oppressive
ini office.
You shoul.d examine into the securi
ty of the bonds of your public officers.
These bondspjre required to be record
ed in the clerk's office. You can see
them there ; then you can go to the
Auditor's office, and find out from the
teturns, as to the solvency of the sure
ties.
If any violation of the law, apart
from the bills handed out, comes to
your knowledge, it is your duty to re
port it to the solicitor.
In the discharge of your duties, you
are presumed to be isolated from the
community. You should know noth
ing but the law and evidence, and pay
no attention to outside persons and
influences.
