Hudson, fi ?residing Judge : n The Grand Jury, by this their final e resentment, would respectfully show ti o this Honorable Court : i< That we have visited the various p ,ounty offices and buildings, and find t hem generally in good condition. The it ail is clean and the prisoners well kept a1 and comfortably provided for. a The County Poor House needs some d mall repairs, especially upon the ceil- g ng and upon the chimneys. There y re now eleven paupers therein, and t< e are informed this has been the aver- e ge number of inmates for the fiscal e rear. The entire cost of this institu- p ion for the fiscal year just past was xclusive of clothing and bedding, but t, neluding keeper's and physicians. sala ies) $723.12. This makes the weekly a iost of feeding, keeping and doctoring ti ~ach pauper, $1.26. i Our County finances appear to 'be i, ~eary growing more prosperous. Ind .879,; the funded indebtedmiesso>f New-' ierry County was, in round rumnbers, 6,000. After deducting the fids mow in the hands of the County Trdas irer, applicable thereto, there will re nain of this indebtedness, only about 5000; and this sum will probably be ntirey paid by one more payment, in .884. Besides this, of the ordinary County 1 unds for 1881-82, there was a surplus s rouoht forward, of about $5,000. This i hof'd enable our County Commission-d -s to carry forward to the fiscal year i 883-84 an equal, if not a larger, e ~mount, thus enabling them*to pay all e lemads against the County, in cash.~ ? We would suggest that the County f< Thommissioners erect miore shelving an~d >ook cases in the offices of the Clerk of s he Court and of the County Auditor. a Repairs are needed upon the follow- n ng roads, viz., on the Long Lane be- i ween N. S. Crosson's and the David r wicker place : on the Charleston Road e >etween T. B. Kennerly's and Indian t greek : and on the Ruff Road near Dr. , . C. Halfac 's and the road from W- t V. Waidrop s to the Mendenhall mill. n We would for the third time call at- ] ention to the dangerous condition ofk he bridge near Henry Dominick's y nill; and again urge the building of a e iew bridge over Cannon's Creek ney .. E"omaria, on the Charleston Road. A a bridge over Duncan's Creek on the ~ anie road. At the February Term, we made a nost thorough examination into -the 2ounty Treasurer's office, and then ound it in proper condition. We are >f the opinion that this examination ould be made just now, only with the ~reatest difficulty, as the taxes are still n course of collection. We have herefore attempted to make no exami iation in this office at the present term f the Court. It appears to us that the office of - Foseph S. Reid, one of the Trial Jus- a ;iees for the town of Newberry is im roperly kept ; and the following mat ;ers seems to us to be irregular in his. transactions. 1st. Cases for heinous ffenses, such as rape, riot, perjury, 1 ggravated assaults, &c., arec allowed >y him to be compromised a,nd settled yetween the prosecutor and The defe-n lants, upon the payment of costs. even riter the preliminary hearing, and af ;er the defendants have been p)roperly ound over to this court. 2nd. Fines ave been imposed upon convicts and I ;en, in part or wholly remitted, by um. 3rd. Very few of the fines in yosed have been collected, nor have he alternatIve sentences of imprison- t oent been enforced.a We have been assisted in our investi- I rations by Mr. F. Werber, Jr., asr pecial expert, at the June Term one lay, and at the present term threeJ las. All pf which is respectfully ubmitted. S. A HUNTER, Foreman, and others. Nov. 1st, 1883..

I have been here just one week,-in tharleston, you know-and it appears o be but yesterday since I left the [iet of Newberry, so fastly, and so elightfully old Father Time moves n. I could stay another week,-with ut the slightest inconvenience. There re so many enticements here-the treets are so long and so clean, and fford glimpses where they cross of he beautiful rivers on either side of he City ; the houses are so various in rehitecture, some of them so quaint, iany of them so old; the people are o kindly hospitable; the matrons are o pleasant; the maidens so enchant ig; the boys so fresh looking and ischievous: the market so enticing; he battery so invigorating; the gar ens so inviting and sweet ; the ship iug so worth-seeing; the truck Yen ors so amusing; the lager so plenti al; the fish and oysters so deliciously resh; the fruit so inviting; the pin ,er cake manmas so colored and shin ig; and a thousand other things so ttractive and captivating, that the eader will at once understand how ery hard it is for a young and appre iative man like your friend Sniffles. ased to country life, country ways. ome made bread and tough meats,) to ear himself away. I will remain a zw days longer, and take in a little iore of the sea breeze and the city's ood things. Yesterday with a friend and cousin visited the Charleston Cotton Fac Dry on Harpstead, of which Gen. C. rwin Walker is the President. It is. n imposing pile of brick and mortar, ud the piles driven into the ground pon which the foundation was made, rould drive a countryman mad to at empt to compute. I was told but I aiinot keep reckoning of so great a ile. Under the intelligent guidance f Mr. Schumway the general super isor, we were enlightened as to the rorking of the hundreds and thous nds of wheels and spindles on the rst floor. Mr. Geo. H. Andrews howing us over the three other floors nd the basement. These gentlemen rere exceedingly polite and entertain ig, and gave us two hours of their aluable time. I feel now, by the ray, and tell it before it is forgotten, hat the information gained has quali ed me to fill any position on our own iill, and that I shall be happy to be levated to any of the first class posi ion, from general manager up to Pres lent, I don't care which. All that I articularly care for is to be useful to he Newberry Cotton Mill. I can run ;. But to return, this Factory is five tories high, and is 150 by 400 feet wide nd long, and gives bread to four hun red operatives, mostly women and irls. These are of the usual sallow isaged, sad eyed character. The Fac Dry is running on full time, and has a apacity of 30,000 lbs. of yarn, and an qual number of pounds of sheeting, er week. One of the large interests of Charles Dn s Claussen's bread, cake, cracker nd candy Factory. It is immense, nd has just risen like a Phoenix from h~ ashes of a late fire. The building Snot yet completed, but the baking going on. What would "little chil xen's mothers" do but for this bak ry. Claussen howev'er does not do ike the chap described in the song Psh along. keep moving," who In vain tried to make his bread By baking bread for others Because he%lt it go on "tick" To little children's mothers.. io, Sir, he takes ~the cash, otherwise e could not have built the house pkn of. Not very far off from this his Lager Beer factory. The noble esign of this factorv is apparent to rie. When his bre"ad clogs the eat rs throat, he has only to turn the orner and call for Beer, the bread is rashed down. and life is saved. Good r Claussen. A fitting place of rest is Ed. Perry's tationery establishment on Meeting treet. It is presided over by clever nn-the chief of whom, down stairs, a young Irishman. Mr. Win. F. Bar aan. He is as full of business as an. gg is of meat, and so agreeable withal bat Sniffies is charmed with him, and rll hereafter do his city trading in hat particular line of business with Lone ,other. Perry is fortunate, for arragan is a gem of a salesman, and issed the Blarney Stone to his great ad antage. I doubt if Perry's lips ever ontacted with that remarkable stone -he is too staid to show it, and his enerable age precludes asking the uestion. M. Hutson, the efficient d experienced manager of the typo raphical department, reminds me f old uncle Edward, he whose Fingers were as long as the cane in the brake" *nd who is old enough to know where f he speaks, says that Perry is the Tand father of the concern. I can't el which of the two is the older. Hut on has the advantage in looks, and s tongue hangs in the middle. I tope the ladies will forgive me in thus ing a gentleman credit for one of heir peculiar attributes. Having es ablished the assertion that Perry's tore is a good resting place, and- hav ug resteil long enough to make this rief note, and looking pale and fa iged, Sniffles was invited by the nan with "long fingers, and who has to hair on the top of his head." to step uit and "lager," and take a dozen on he "half shell," an operation sooth a to the stomach and which puts the vle inner man in love with his fel ow man. This is a discursive letter.; I feel va ions and have a disposition to ramble. I fell in ith Mr. H. Moroso, he of he Sunday Times, he is a good fellow, .nd from him Sniffles has purchased a tal-medmm Liberty Job Press. The eader will wonder what the genial ;nifies is going to do with a Liberty Fob Press. I can only say now that 've me liberty or give me death." y be I will start another paper in ~ewberry.

We call attention of parties interest ed to the Master's notice-in the case of Sarah E. T. Chick, vs. Louisa V. J. Farr, an extension of time having been granted by order of Court. The crowd in town on Monday was unusually large. It was saleday and court was in session. There were some 50 witnesses in one case, who had been summoned1 to be present for trial on Monday. Peoples & Johnston are creeping, they have emerged from the shady side of Main Street into the free glare of broad sunshine on the other side, in the store lately occupied by W. E. Peham. May they creep into large success. The only pain we can safely make, light of, is the window-pane, but the pain that racks our frame and tears our lungs is a matter of serious conse quence. To alleviate the latter and effect a permanent cure, Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is relied on by all sensi ble people.

It is a first class institution, replete with every thing needed by the merchant, the lawyer, the minister, the mechanic, besides, the ladies nnd the Misses and the boys can find what they want there.

The grand jury found irregularities in the office of Trial Justice Bteid. We do not know into how many Trial Justice offBees their examination ex tended, but we venture to suggest that they might E@sily find irregularities, or at least, glaring defects int the Trial Justice system. We do not believe the Justice in .question has done any in tentional wrong though he may have erred throug inexperience. He is charged with havingallowed the parties to compromise certain prosecutions for "heinous" crimes; if these heinous crimes were lik6 most of those tried at the last court of sessions, we are willin" to foroieve Mr. Ried, as having dne . punbMic a service.

The corn is re orted much better on an average ,han the cotton, and there will loubtless be made between two. hirds and three-fourths of a crop.

Re- f ently she was "dunned" by the e nerchant, and replied in an insultingn etter. A note was then sent to her y.s colored boy, who was invited I nto the house. After the boy went V n, she closed the door and gave him I i terrible beating with an iron )oker, and sent word to the mer ;hant to come and try to collect his >ill himself if he wanted to be treat- 3 ~d in a like manner.3 The presentment of the Grand , fury is most gratifying.
