It is thought that the next Court of General Sessions for this County will be os lively as the last. How ? The new street sensation, wo beliove, lias died completely out. Will it be renewed in the next municipal election ? It is estimated that no less than 1,()U0 fibh arc tonsumod iu Oraugcburg 'dxtily.

Our friend, Mr. Willio Rives, it-is said, will join 'the excursioniits at that place. The Fislierm en in Brauchville arc ^having a lively time. We wish they vrnuld, consider that we cat fish up this \vay too, and decide to let a few pass 'the Yairrdaa bridge. Our de?il only a'ng'lcs On Saturdays, and then he says 'he 'can't catch any for tho c?aao above alleged. Mr. John A. Moroso, of the staff of 'the Charleston News ami Courier was iu 'attendance upon our late notable Court. Mr. Moroso is a strong and versatile .Writer, and has a happy knack of mak ing friends wherever he goes. We have no complaint to make as to his visit liere, except that ho might have said a ?little more about, our thriving Burg Our young friend, Frank Briggmann, at Mullera old stand, is doing a good business in tbe grocery and liquor liue. It is really a pleasure to spend money with Frank, for you know thnt you will got value rccoivod, besides a ,good soufid avticlo. For neat new and 'cleVerticsH of arrangement, hU store has .no equal. Mr. John Iuabinot, his as sistant, ha? no superior for honest deal 'CO TTON FORM 3? Mr. G. W. Brunson handed us a cot Hon form on Thursday last which grew in tbe field adjacent to his house. Mr. B. has a splendid stand and! if the pres ent fine growth of his eotton may be ta ken as an indication of its early maturi ty, Orangeburg will send the first "pew bag" to tho market. Success to i? eeni?'. dukes' hotel hack? Tho enterprising proprietor of this hotel has rccoutly attached another con venience to his establishment in the Way of a fine four seated hack. If will be run Bteadily to and from every train. Mr. Aebury Wannaniakor, the conduc tor, promises to take passengers to any place in town. Orangeburg bears marks of the enterprise of Mr; Dukes iu more than one way, and we wish him suc cess. Day before yesterday it was so warm that the ink, with which we print the Nkwk, commenced to boil. Our neigh: bor, wo understand, lured worse thin this. Its type, already hot under the iullucnco of the leader of that day could tint stand ninety degree.- heat ant ? melted. Two hot things wont chime to gether well. Will Mayor MoSeluy give us a fire well between hero and our neighbor's office '! We want one l<> hold S,00, gallons of water. Mr. Augustus Fischer has just re ceived a fresh and varied supply of gro ccrics and liquors, till ol which he oilers at the verj lowest rates. The appoint I incuts of his bar are perfect, and if one wants a drink fixed up in style, to Fischer's is the place to g>">. His gro ccrics are superb, nnd are dealt out by polite clerks, in quantities to still custom era, and at figures which tho poor can stand. Fischer's motto is t<> live and let live. Personal. Mr. James Van Tassel, our faithful and efficient "County Auditor, left our Uurg on the \)d instant, lor Now lr~ork . where he contemplates spending a short lime with his friends and relatives;. Tiii* respite from the never-ceasing work of his very responsible office, \\i 1 no doubt be pleasuutly cujoyed by our friend; During his UJSCiiou we are glad to know that so capable a gentleman ;i> .Mr. Barnabas Williamson will attend to the business of his office. Wo wish Mr. Van Tassel a pleasant trip, and a safe roturn home. We oan't spare him in the coming campaign. George "tvo" t .fisliing litAt Wenk, but i not being tin expert, swimmer, decided I not to voiituru out in a bo it,, ah 1 there at meut, a cane and line, vowvd luttily t hut he would beat the crowd fishing. To <lo this he betook himself up the streu in alone. By and by a terri ble splashing wan heard. His friends thinking that ho was playing the very duece with the pike fish repaired in a dou ble quick to the spot wharo h ; was, intending to enjo}' Bomo of the sport with George. When they arrived there he hud net caught a single fish?didn't have as much as a scale, oi.dy had a boy iu a little puddle with a brush drag, with which he said lie would soon eiteh enough for the crowd; for says the af fable G.?"When [ came up here there could not have been less than live hun dred darting away in the grass from mo." The company being fish hungry, decided to assist in hauling out the bufcb-drag, which was thought to bold no less than half the pike in that hole Finally it was got out, and it would uot be esagrating one bit to say that our expectations, so\fir as numbers were con cerned, wore more than realized: but be it known that the jumping, fluttering things that mado tho ground lively were not pikes; no, no; thoy ware as pretty a pile of tad poles and water liz ards as wo ever saw. Our go ri friend George is a wiser man to day, the ma tch ga me a t hi. a ('k I rill e. On Thursday morning last the mem bers of tho Orange Base Dull Club took the train at this place for Blackvilh, the point whic'i had been previously agreed iqon ns the ground upon which their second match j:ntne, with the Ath letes of that place,' would bo played. The members of the Orange Club left heroin high spirits, followed by the good wisbcB of Orangebuvg's fairest daughters, whoso confidence in the prowess of our young men Jian never yat been shaken. On the train the Club enjoyed themselves by indulging in wit und humor, and surmises as to the proba ble result of the game. Although con scious that in tho Athletes tliey would meet foes worthy of their steel, still tho sanguine Orange boy3 never dispaired of victory for a moment, and no thought of defeat could find entertainment among them. Kvcn the fair ones who helped to make their pretty uniforms, associated with the owners of which are ? the dearest little hopes, bidding as they did, tacitly but olotjtlcutly, our Club on to a fresh triumph, never double I tho result. The Club arrived at HluekviUo abaut 3 o'clock p. in , an 1 alter pirtak ing of a splendid dinner, prepared for tho n by their generous foes, marched to the field of battle. The stores in the town were closed, and nearly ovcrybody around, thatcound walk or ri le, attended, to witness tho contest. .Sonic of Barn well's loveliest creatures were there, and looked their prettiest at our bo)3. But despite the fact thai "Milt eyes looked love to eyc.t which spoke again," and the fatigue conse quent upon a trip up in the 'rain through the hottest of tin: day, the Orange B iso U.ill Club cm now cole brate their scoot.d victory over the Ath letes.
