COUNTY A UDITOR?
Van Tassel's recommendation to the Hoard
of Equalization of the appointment of three
tax-payers iu each Township, to sit with
said Hoard, has beon copied by nearly all
the papers of the State. Mr. Van Tassel's
desire seems to bo to give satisfaction to tho
people, and to put property at its value and
no mure. This is praiseworthy i n Iii tu, ami
will meet with the approbation of all honest
men.

The polite and gentlemanly opeiator of

at this place, can scud either a basin '- s or
love message to all parls in the twinkling of
an eye. Mr. Sellers' office is to Ihe icae of
Mosely & Copes' store, where be can ho found
at all times daring business hours. His
location is the most convenient to our mer
chants, and is largely patronized.
The Committee appointed by Judge Cruh
am nt the IiieI tcim of Court, to investigate
Ihe public affairs of litis County, met at
this place on Monday last, ami commenced
their investigation. In consequence of the
tin avoidable absence of one or two officers,
the committee adjourned on Thursday to
meet again on Ihe 9th Inst. We understand
they will compliment Mr. Boliver for his
careful management of the affairs of the
County Commissioners' office-, for the hist
two years. He is a faithful officer, and de
serves such commendation.

Inquiries come to us from all quarters,
seeking information in regard to Solicitor
Buttz's altitude towards Moses, and wheth
er a new bill will be given out against him
at I hi January term of the Sessions Court.
We answer, that Solicitor Buttz knows thai
Moses has violated the law?by which the
people of this County lost $0,000, and
which they will have to make good?and he
will pcr.suc him as far as ho can. Tit*;
Solicitor has all the proofs in his possession,
and will usn them in January next. We
know enough of Buttz to say thai ho will do
his duty as a liublie officer, without foar or

EASE BALL?
A lively game of Base Bull was played oti
Tuesday afternoon between two picked

pion Badge and Belt to M. G. Salloy, he
having made a ciean score, namely, three
runs, being the best score.
The Swamp Angles failing to conio lo lime
on Monday afternoon, the time appointed
for tl.o second game the Orange claimed the
game by a score of 0 to 0. This

SayB it admires our frankness, but docs
not think that we could possibly have been
so, had wo been in receipt of Patterson's
cue. Why not ? Docs the Sun jtldgo us by
tho motto which shapes tho course of its
Broad Streot brother, namely, the "Don't
care a damn for principle'' rule ? Has it
caught the infection and bowed in worship
of the Golden Calf ? Has it fo'lowed the
c sample of the News and Courin; ami said
unto truth "Get thee behind mo ?" Let it
suffice the Sun to know that when wo want a
cue, wo shall not. apply to our United Staff j
Scnalor for if ; nor shall we seek to Pud a
proper one in the sanctum of (ho doubting

A WA V FROM HOME?
The Slate Convention drew a great many
men, women and children to Columbia.
During tho first day of tho proceedings of
that body, a ponpous end ollicious young
man, from a strong Republican Countj of
the up country, assumed a great many nirs
which were not natural to him- In Ihe Con
vention ho shook familiarly tho hands of
such notables as Judge Mackey, Senator
Patterson and Chamberlain, aud with a
pea-cock strut promenaded tho isles of the
House of Uepreseiuativcs. Saidyoiing man
attracted a great deal of notice; but unfor
tunately for him, an old aoquaintanoo of
the lonsorial profession discovoro I his smil
ing face, and while ho was talking lo a host
of big men, approached him with a broad
grin, and said:
Harber?"Why how are you old friend '.'
I hav'nt seen you for sonic time. You re
member tho last tirao wo woro on a spree
together ?
Young Man?(Shaking reluctantly tho
hand of his drunken burbgr friend and
pulling him ?aside.) Ray, you ought not to
hiiro interrupted me then. Thoso men take
mo to be influential with the delegates, and
I was trying to get into their good graces.
Never approach mo in that stylo again, or I
shan't be able to treat you during the Con
vention.
Harber?Enough said. Go it old boy, get
the money and let's havo a regular old time
?totohing glasses to night."
Young Man??'Very well. I'll be around
this evening. If you meet mo with big men,
mitid you, don't rcoognizo me. Is that a
bargain ?"
Harber?"A bargain," said his friend.
Skquki.?Both wo:cc up next morning
with a heavy head-ache.
DAD ADVICE?
The Charleston Sun, in Tuesday's issue,
advised (he members of the S'afc Conven
tion to vote for pay and for pay only. Its
Editor made a calculation which led him to
the conclusion tint each member should
hold his vole at. $19,000. How can the
conductors of said journal reconcile this
position with Co r professions of honesty '.'
The Sunt in one breath, condemns the He
publican party for its corruptions, and in the
next counsels its leaders to sell themselves
for money. Docs Iho Sun practice what it
pjcaches? All in nil, this is the boldest bid
for the favor and countenance of bad and
corrupt men, that we have ever seen disgrace
the columns of a Democratic paper. The
i ndependt nt journal out-IIcrods Herod?the
AVt.x auf Coin in: Whew ! how the honest
admirers of thai p iper, the 'Sun, mast winoo
