V; ono or two publio buildings; u ' dozen stores; two churches, and together witboo occasional black aud cobbler shop r completed tbe otal of Ordngoburg village. . ong the oldest residente of those rere Mr. WJnninghsro, the Clerk ?A' Court and Ordinary, as both ol ".Sees were combined in one at that . .mnnucl I'ooser, the sheriff, Jacob nbaker, tax eollcotor, Scagler, kept the toll-gate out by the bridge p '. iho F.disto, Sam. P. Jonen, Sanders i 9w\ Jno M- Feldar * -, Id those days Oiangcburg. as woll as now, hat! her merchants, solid, whole souled, persevering, practical moii, n'oo, by tho "sweat of thoir brow," labored to build up tboir trade in the place. The most prominent among these were Sylvester Beaoh, Sanders Glover, Willliam Tootser, John Tyler and "Billy Murrovr.'' Their stores were mostly after the order of little country stores iu general, dry-goods, groceries, ^cld implements, country produce, fruits of tl?c town and nf the garden placed pro misruously together with mi t regard to their effect in attracting custom, than to neatness and order. Then too there in the doorway stood the proprietor him himself, wiih coat off and shirt-sleeve t rolled up, ready to bignal out hi* friends coming in from the country around and ever ou the alert to strike a goo 1 bargain. One oi the most thorough go ahead, wide awake of. tlie.se bu.siues.s- men was Sylvester Beach. A few years before he had come from New Kuglatid, and halt jug at last in tho littlo Village of Orangcburg, thoro ',:arted out as a peddler of ttiukcts, clocks and other wares. He had n quc.-r, old fashioned carryall, with an uncii nt, solemn-faced horac attached, and with these, in all kinds of weather) he might be seen driving over the country round about, bargaining for the sale of hin wares.' lie was sharp',quick wilted, persevering, ready to drive a trade, and ue may be supposed, succeeded well. A few years of hard Work, and industry, self-denial, and Sylvester had saved euougli to start out in the store-keeping business. J'ur chasing a "good lejk-out" in one corner of Oruugcburg, ha settled dowu as a lesido.iit merchant. Here his inn irk t blc busiuoss tact did not desert him, and as the years rolled on ho soon camo to be recognized as one nf the wealthiest and most influential men in the pi ice At all hours' of the day the gonllcm in ly, and obliging proprietor mi;_,iit be luuud at his store, ready to wait upon uia COflCtUCrs, among whom lie was a jrcat favorite. jg~ Of Sanders Glover, the genial whole suulcd, jovial gentleman, whcui evot^ body Ucw hut to like, any one living in Orangcburg iu those days can tell. Sunders was full of his jokes, and not only ever ready to have lhc:u at other lolktj' expense, but b >ro it qtrte u-niably atid good humored ly when "the tables ucrc turned" upo? Jiiu/aeff. One of the most prominent traits ol .his rharac tcr was Lis hi.bit' of ..snoring. ludcrd conic hud gone no far rs t:> nutert tV tt he was the greatest nn-rcr iu tho place, und a wind mill was nothing to he com pared with hiih. Numerous were tho jokes nf 1 is expense that this gave rise to. One of these we remember to have heard. By sonic chance a number of th.c glass iu the windows ?d' his sleeping apartment became cracked, which some waggish young fellows observing, went and reported it ove? the Village tha: San ders' suoring had developed itself to sucfr an alarming extent as to shatter the glass iu Ms windows. This, Sarr dcrs hearing, he rcc ivrd it with the utmost sung fcoid, declaring that if he cracked the ^lass ho guessed he could buy more, and wcut uu> r'&oring us hard ua? e\ur. -Juat- om ihe cornwr wTick Mr. ITar P-yVstute is now, there stood one kept by "Biljy Mnrrow." Like Samlets ti love's, 4T5iily" ton, was a whole Buulod, genial lUOn, brave, ipapttlwive and gcWor otis to a fault. "Nr>twi krew bias Vu4 to love him, none 'named him but to ptaitc." No ''false bahiuco" was ever v.< a!t ou* by his hand \ indeed he would sooner have robbed himself before dealing unjustly with another. He wns "Billy Murrow" to everybody. Kvoo the little children, from hearing their fathers repeat the name so often, had grown familiar with it. No one scarce ly ever thought of mistering him ".Mr . Musrow"' was? sound bio ear had not grown accustodmd tto-. The prinew)?!' products of OVange.burg in otiose miy was butter, chickens nmf eggs. These would be brought into market ih' queer-looking, little' vehicles? oullcd earts quite in vogue at thut time, us tiuggies and-tho latter style of Wag ons were ?hen- totally unknown'. Thoio carts consisted of an ill shnped plunk body upon two shafts, the labter being held up by a strip, of leather, or "buck band" as it was called) sewed in a loop ut euch end and which worked up iuto an uncouth little saddle placed in tho center of the horse's back. Upon this the "old man" rode and guided "the critter," wbiJe tho "old omun," ia white I fly-bonnot and hugo cheek apron, sat I within the curt to look after the things, and "soo as none got busted." lav some eases a littlo black jug would find it's .way betwecu'tho coop of chickens and .basket ef <3gga> which eludhg the vigilant eyo of tho "old owmon," would be taketi iuto one of the little doggeries/ which stood in the village, there to be filled, and returned u gain when 'tlie old 'uinan uun't a ha/cin." Reaching the village their butter, eggs, etos would bo takeiifflto tho stores and ther? trad ed tl? for "irjtfou stuff'' spun j<\tq "ter backer," a "frock for the gala," oto. .Sometimes great, strapping, bare footed youths would tvu?gc along by the side of the cart with a guo on their ahouldor going in to the place there t? purchase powder and shot for the purpose of wa ging war against the feathered tribe. The public buildings iu Oraogeburg in tho dnya of which wo are writing were, very few indeed. Such u thing as a towu hall, or a hall of uny other kind, was altogether unknown. Tho old court house of that time was a plain, modest, unassuming, wooden building, two stories in hcighth, tho first flour being devoted to the sheriff's office, that of tho clerk of court aud Ordinary and tax-collector. One or two lawyers also had their offices here. The court room and jury room occupied th? second floor. The room for holding court at that time was about forty feet square, with bare floor, unpaiuted walls, wooden beucRos for the judgCB, etc. This building in after years was altered and repaired, changed to a private residence, and still stands on tho same ?pot il formerly occupied. Not very far from thi> was the jail, a small, stroug building of hewn logs, rough and uuprepoacssing iu Bfpearanoe, but serving well the purpose for which it was designed. About this time the new court house, siucc destroyed, was iu the course of erection and was soon after finished, also the present jail. Tli s last will si and for years to come yet a living monument to the industry mid perseverance of those who planned it. Tho days 'ar holding court iu yrangeburg thou was regarded as quite a lively time, great crowds flocking hither to atteud the sessions. But des pite the influx of visitor?, and the whiskey, which was pretty freely cir culated, very few disturbances of any kind occurred, which spoke well for the pcuccublcucss of the inhabitants. ? ^? Foremost among tho lawyers stool Joo>. M. Felder, Thomas \Y. Qlover and a Mr. Whitnioro. Of the. talents and popularity of" John M. Felder bis elec tion 8)ou after by tho people of his native State to fill the position of Sena tor from that District was sufficient proof. In the Senate Chamber 08 well a* iu the little court house at home his voico rang out fe.irl.ssly id defence of the causa of truth and ri0ht, and never by word or deed did lio ever betray t!ic confidence' of the people, who bad made him their choice, but stood up boldly for then), a representative of ffhom Orange burg [miglil well be proud. Mr. Folder was a lithe dark complexioue 1 mm, with b'ack hair and whiskers, rather below the medium height, somewhat ne/vons and abstracted in manner, aud inclined to be brusque in speech. In the time' of which wo are writing he might often1 be seen walking up and down the principal Streets of tire village, his hat pulled down over hw eyes, deeply engaged in reflect mo1. Some times he has been knoWn Iu pass by his most intimate friends without recogni tion, so dcooly would he be buried in revrie. Then again throwing off this preocupicd air, bo could bo as merry and jovial us any, and bis doors wore always hospitably thrown upon to guests and numerous were the huppy hours some of them spent at "Cob-Web Hall," as his resideneo was more familiarity called. This appellation grew out of bhe fact of its master's being a bachelor for which Ivewaw taunted unmercifully by u number of waggish fellows around tho village, who declared his hou-e was V ... I literally covered inside with cobwebs for the want of a "fair hand" to keep them brushed away. 1'ut their jokes never) had the desired effect "Cob Wob Hall" renianucd without a mistress, its master spending all his days iu ''singlo blessed ncss." I Th mas W. (Hover, though1 very 1 young at that time, was one of the most I talented and rising young members of j the bar. Indeed his eloquenoe was tho thouio of every tongue. Sometimes ho 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 tho lips of the youthful Demosthenes. Nor did-bis after career, which gr?*w more brilliant with titne, disappoint the hopos and9 expectations of his young iiiunhood .
