ROUGH ON OUR PRESENT COUN
CIL?
The Charleston Nexot & Courier heads
an accouut of our recent election
"Orangcburg Redeemed." This is
rough on our excellent Mayor Brigg
maun and the other members of the
present Council.
REAL PROPERTY?
The number of transfers of Real
Estate made in this County from the
1st of May 1871, to September llih
1873, as showu in the Auditor's office,
is 701, of which 110 were made in
1871, 382 in 1872, and 200'upto Sep
tember 31th 1873
The -County Hoard of Equalization
has been in Session ior the last two
weeks. We understand that a fair and
equitable valuation has been placed up
on si? property. The annual Hoard of
the CoUD?.j Ocmrmssionors mat also last
week, and slashed right and left iuto
the claims presented for ibeir consider
ation.
Saio?our W. M. that is to say?has
recently made internal improvements in
his saloon, which will conduse to both
the ez and in-ternal comfort of his
patrons. Very wisely, too, ha hasaecurcd
the servtces of our young friend, Master
Anbury Wannaosaker, who is as cour
teous, oleveT and obliging as when ho
assisted at the "Enterprise." Need we
say more?
Some three or four yeara ago tW? e??wt
people of this town conferred upon us
the hrevet rank of "Major." After a
prolonged aad terrinc straggle we have
at last ?ueccedod in preventing them
from bestowiug upon us the civil title
of "Alderman." Tt was a hard fight,
but the glorious bird of victory has
finally perched upon our banners, and
wc are permitted to retain our military
position without* ajy Aldertaanic pre
tension or distension whatsoever. The
next man who calls tie "Alderman" does
so at his peril.
A worthy Independent eitir.cn wait ml
at the poll last Tuesday evening until
tho count for Moseley reached 125 and
then went home to bed, confident that
"Pink" was all right. Waking up
however, about midnight, he heard to
his horror, a terrible uproar, hooping,
halloing, the shooting of pistols, Ac.?
and exclaimed, "The d?d Radicals hnvo
woo after all. No ono else would make
such a h?11 of a noise at this time of
night!"
He slept miserably until morning, but
an early walk convinced him that human
nature is the same all the world over,
aud gave him, beside, a good appetite
for breakfast.

"BAXTER'S SAINTS' REST "? .
A minister taking aa sasy ride to the
depot in Baxter's Omnibust,
And, by tbs way, this same Omnibus
u< one of Orangoburg'e bast institutions.
Night and day it goes to every train.
In rain or stiashine, Baxter is always
on hand. People tin the cars who are
I unfortunate enough to be compelled to
pass through our 'burg without stopping,
look out of the window and say "I
declare, what a flourishing Tow? Orange
barg must be to support such a turu-out!
I must certainly put up at Merouey's if
I ever visit Oraugeburg 1"
Welt, Orangeburg is a flourishing
Town and Meroney's hotel is worthy of
it?and Batters' Bus Worthily com
pletes the trio.
We find it a rather difficult matter
to write much about our late election.
Wc eommenced thefightwith a ''streicht
out" ticket aud finished it with "laid
but" candidates. We have'nt much to
say upon tho subject. We mourn
quietly. What the issues involved were
wq don't precisely kuow. Politics had
nothiug to do with it MoHely was
elected because he is considered rather a
hotter looking man than Boliver. Wash
ington was preferred to Williams booauso
ho is a better judge of horse flesh thau tho
latter.' The fact that llarley was not a
Trial ?Justice gave him tho inside track
of Browning. Wolfe represented a
Towns-end by his very name and so beat
McKinley who lives near tho centre of
our good Burg?and Williamson owes
his hunduome majority over ourselves to
the fact that he wenrs spectacles only
occasionally while, we are obliged*to wear
them all the time.
This is what wus done last Tuesday at
our Municipal Election :
FOR MAYOR:
Joab W. Moseley received 191 votes.
George Boliver " 103 "
FOR ALDERMEN:
Henry Washington received 191 votes.
Joseph P. Harley " 205 "
Barnabas Williamson " 200 "
Townsend D. Wolfe " 202 "
F. R. McKinley " 84 "
Aug. B. Knowlton M 79 *?
George Williams " 79 "
A. F. Browning " 66 "

makes a mistake, to korrekt it by kus
