Felder.* ?, In thoso days Orangeburg, as well as now, had* ber merchants, solid, wholo soulcd, persevering, practical mou, who, by tho "sweat of thoir brow," labored to build up tboir trade in the place. The most prominent among these were Sylvester Beaoh, Sanders Glovor, Willliam Ponser, dohn Tyler and ' Billy Murrow." Their stores wcro mostly after the order of little country stores iu general, dry goods, groceries, licld implements, country produce, fruits of the town and of the garden placed pro miscuously together with more regard to their effect in attracting custom, than to no'itness and order. Then too there in the doorway stood tho proprietor him himself, with coat oft and shirt .

Theso would be brought into market in queer-looking, little vehicle.'? uullcd carts quite in vogue at that time, as ttuggics anil-the latter style of Wag ons were (men Cota4ly mikoowm. Tho->c carts consisted of an ill shaped plank body upon twa frhafts, the lubter being hold up by a strip of leather, or "back band" us it was called) sewed in a loop at each end und which worked up into an uncouth little saddle placed in the oonter of the horseback. Upon this the "old man" rode and guided "the. critter," wd>i!e tho "old otnan," in while fly-bonnet und huge cheek apron, snt within the cart to look uftor the things, and "soo as none got busted." In some cases a littlo black jug would find it's way between-the c?op of chickens and basket of cggs^ which oluding the vigilant eyo ol the "old owiuen," would be taken into one of the littlo doggeries, which stood in the village, there to be filled, und returned a gain when '?the old 'oinan want a hfdein." Benching the village thoir butter, eggs, etos would bo taken Into tho stores und tlicr* trad f\ off for "n'/'ou 9tuft"' spun ;o.ru "<ex backer," a "frock for tbo gals," oto. Sometimes great, strapping, ?urefooted youths would trudgo along by the side of the cart with a gun oo their shoulder going fn to the place 'here to purchase powder and shot for the purpose of wa ging war against the feathered tribe. The public buildings iu Orangoburg iu the days of w hich we are writing were very few indeed. Such a tiling as a town hall, or a hall of any other kiud, was altogether unknown. The bid court house of that tiino was a plain, modest, unassuaiiug, wooden building, two stories iu heighth, the first floor being devoted to the sherifl'c office, that of the clerk of court and Ordinary and tax-collector. One or two lawyers ulso had their offices here. The court room and jury room occupied the second floor. The room for Induing court at that time was about forty feet square, with bare floor, unpatutod walls, wooden beucHos for the judges, etc. This building iu after yenrs was altered and repaired, changed to a private residence, and still stands on the same spot it formerly occupied. Not very far from thi< was the jail, a small, strong building of hewn logs, rough and uuproposcssing in appearance, but serving well the purpose for which it was designed. About this time the new court house, since destroyed, was in the course of erection and was soon after finished, also the present jail. Th s last will stand for years t> come yet a living monument to the iudustry mid perseverance of those who planned it. The days 'ar holding court iu grange-burg thou was regarded as quite a lively time, great crowds flocking hither to attend the .sessions. Hut des pite the influx of visitors, and the whiskey, which was pretty freely cir culated, very few disturbances of any kind occurred, which spoke well for the pcaccablouess of the inhabit tuts. ? Wff Foremost among the lawyers stool duo M. Felder, Thomas VV. (Ilover and a Mr. Whittuoro. Of the talents and popularity of John M. Felder his elec tion s ion after by the Jwioplo ofl his ! native State to fiil the position of Sena- j tor from that District was sufficient proof. In the Senate Chamber as well a* in the little court hou c at home his voice rang out fc irl ssly in defence of the cause of truth and ri^ht, and never by word or deed did he ever betray the confidence'of the pe qde, who had made him their choice, but stood up boldly for them, a representative of /rboiu Orange burg luiiglii well be proud. Mr. Kjldor was a lithe dark-cotuplexioUC 1 nun, with b'ack hair and whiskers, rather below the medium height, somewhat nvfvon* and abstrrsted in manner, and inclined to he brusque in spoeeh. In the time' c? which we are. writing he might often1 be seen walking up and down the principal streets of the village, his hat pulled down over his eyes, deeply engaged in reflection. Some times he has been km>Wn to pass by his most intimate friends without rcco*gnri ... I tion, so dceoly would ho he buried in revrio. Then again throwing off this ' preocupicd air, he could bo US merry and jovial ns any, and his doors were always hospitably thrown upon to guests and numerous were the happy hours some of &Vn in spent at uC?b'*\Veb Hall," as his residence was more familiarity called. This appellation grew our of the f'"t of its master's being a bachelor form. V Ire was taunted unmercifully by a number of waggish fellows around tho village, who declared his hou~e was literally covered inside with cobwebs for the want <4' a "fair band" to keep them bru>hed away. Cut their jokes never had the desired effect "Cob M ob IlaH" remaiued without a mistress, its master spending all his days in '?single blessed ness;' Th mas W. ClduVcr, though1 very young at that time, was one of the most talented and rising young members of the bar. Indeed bis eloquence was the theme of every tongue. Sometimes he seemed inspired, and then judge, ju ry, audience, forgot all else as they lis tened chained, enraptured, to the words of thunder which rolled from the Iipn of the youthful Demosthenes. Nor did-his after career, which grew more briHinnt with time, disappoint the Imp es and expectations of his young iimuho >d .
