one Simpson Giles, the present incumbent and
sole incumbentj had refused to act, was absent
from and without the limits of the .county almost
the whole time, and did tender his res- j
ignation for incompetency, and still, in the
face of these facts, this immaculate GoverL
nor?this non-resident Executive, who like |
Grant and Giles can afford to "run" the "machine"
by the clerks or leave it to run itself,
has not resorted to a single just measure to as-!
sist the organization of a Board of County |
Commissioners. The consequence is, Union
has no County Commissioners.
"II. Petit Jurors.?They present as a great
public evil and personal regret to many, the fact,
that at this term of the Court, there are no
petit jurors. There are none in attendance1
and none such eo nomine. We attribute this,
indirectly, to the fault of the General Assembly
in enacting and incorporating in the Statutes,
a law which, for the protection of wrongs
l instead of their punishment, stands side by
I side and is the peer of the infamous election
L law, viz: the one regulating the manner of
B drawing juries. But, here again, we trace
criminal neglect directly to Gov. Scott, because
he has left the county destitute in this respect,!
by making it, as we have already shown, beyond
the shadow of a doubt, destitute of a
Chairman of the Board of the County Cora-;
i ?1? ? *V>a Tnrir Rnorfl

and without whom it is utterly impossible to
act.
"III. The Poor Home.?By a com m i ttee seleci.
* ted for the purpose, we have visited and exam|
ined the poor house and grounds. God knows
the name of a Poor Home (?) is enough, but to
conceive of one where poverty, starvation, j
and the grave hold high carnival, and that
too because of one man and that man his Ex- J
cellency R. K. Scott, who prostitutes his of- !
fice by neglecting the poor to aid or shield :
corruption, and then you can properly esti-!
mate the condition of the inmates here. And !
it would have been infinitely worse had not a
few humane, kind hearted merchants furnish-1
ed them with the "staff" of life. The misera- j
ble condition of these paupers and the treat-;
ment they receive at the hands of the authori- j
ties and public functionaries, ought to be a
standing rebuke of the cruel and malignant
disposition which deprives us of our County
Commissioners. If for no other reason than
this, we are entitled to them.
"IV. General Affairs.?We feel gratified
and are pleased to present the improved state
v of society and the general prevalence of peace
and good order around us. We ore capable
of self-government, and if martial law does
coraej it will find us as law-abiding and lawi
supporting as any like number of inhabitants
in tne same territory, found within the wide
. - domain of the United States of America."
Such is, in part, the presentment of the Grand
Jury as published in open Court, and endorsed"
by the Judge in his concluding and farewell
- -1 T p TT_i A..
reraarjcs to toe vtrana oury 01 union uuumy i
for 18J1. This body of men have had eventful
matters to deal with, and their course
throuj&out has been steady, just and uniform,
and especially bold and truthful in this their
last adf as jurors and citizens who know and
feel th$ situation their native county is in.
There'^none so blind as those that wont see,
and if? public exposure of a public servant's
conduct will not remove the scales from his
eyes, tljen, verily, argument is exhausted and
obstinacy kicks the beam, while oppression instead
ofljustice is weighed out.
By the way, an election was held at this
place oa Monday, the 11th instant, for an Intendant
and four Wardens to constitute the
Town Council. The result of this municipal
contest between the opposing elements "wet"
and "dry," has dispelled the mountain dexo
and restored a purer atmosphere, so that it is
now healthy for ladies to engage in that unavoidable?that
agreeable pastime?of "going
ra shopping," without fear or favor of drunken
njgroes and while rfaen too, who, "three sheets
inihe wind*'have frequently been unable to
walk erect, as becomes a man. Said fallen
angels can hereafter go it dry on dry land and
simple dry water, instead of soaring to such
heavenly heights just for the sake of a flight.
P.In other and plainer words, the dry ticket was
elected by a large majority?five to one. So,
Mr. Editor, you see, notwithstanding the quov
tation used in the outset, of a customary cor^
- respondent?an attach^ of a certain Ku-Klux
Committee that visited us to investigate these
| matters and reported us all inebriates and un
civilized?we are not so bad after all. The
action of our citizens gives the lie to the lying
tongue of all such partisan correspondents as
the aforesaid.

RAILROAD CONNECTIONS.
We have, in this and last week's issue, co- j
pied three editorial articles, two from the
.* Chester (S. C.) Reporter and one from the J
Yorkville (S. C.) Enquirer, urging the pro-j
priety of extending the King's Mountain Rail- j
road via Liucolnton to this place.
It is gratifying to know that our friends of
the South have at last struck upon the right j
string, but a little surprising that they have
i remained so long in the dark as to the practicability
and superior advantages to be gained
for them by making this connection.
We have been using every means in our
power for a number of years past to bring this
matter to the attention of Railroad men here ;
i as well as south of us.
We were somewhat astonished a year ago
*4o learn of a project in South Carolina to extend
the King's Mountain road, west of this, j
to Morganton; not that we had anything
'' against our Morganton friend's good fortune,
but on account of much more being gained ;
for the road by coming here, and at so much
less cost.
We agree with the Yorkville Enquirer that j
the road should come via of Dallas, to which,I
we suppose, no one will object.
We will state that the W. C. & R. Railroad !
company are awake to the importance of ma-'
king this connection, and we understand that!
arrangements have been made by that com-1
pany to carry on its work vigorously in the I
future, and that this connection is one of the !
important objects to be attained.
Let this be as it may, it will not, or ought
not prevent the Chester and York project from
coming also. We are sure there will be
enough business for both roads.
The King's Mountain Road, from Yorkville,
can tap at Lincolntou or by an easy arrangement,
by adding the third rail to the
same Road-bed terminate at this place or any
point northwest of this?Lenoir, Patterson,
Doone or any other point.
We beg to call the attention of our Chester,
and Yorkville friends too, to one fact, and
that is the danger of being cut off by a new
railroad project, that we gather from our Georgia
exchanges. It is the running of a Road j
< - A -^ ? --I-* A ir TW I
lruiu n.ui;u??i,u, ua., w a piui cuv
road between Spartanburg and York.
The present Railroad system in that portion
of the country works very much to the
disadvantage of both country and city so far
as Hamburg and Augusta are concerned. |
Before railroads were in use there, Hamburg j
and Augusta had an immense trade from all
the north western portion of South 'Carolina
as well as a part of North Carolina.
Augusta, notwithstanding the loss of much
of her old trade, is a thriving city and wide
awake to her own interests.
If this contemplated road, which is to run
from AugiTsta to Edgefield,'thence to NinetySix,
Laurens, and to the Air Line west of;
York, how easy would it be to extend it on to
Lincolnton and to this place, cutting offChes-,
ter and York and turning the freights of wes-:
tern North Carolina to Augusta.
From Augusta there will be direct commu- I
nication with the sea coast by three routes.
First, by the river to Savannah; second, by
the Waynesboro & Augusta R. R. to Savannah,
and third, by the Port Royal Road to
Port Royal, which will soon be completed.
It is not so material to us which of these ;
routes our produce is shipped over. We want I
an outlet South and East, and we stand ready
to advocate any project that will bring us assistance
in procuring such outlet. We are
aware of the many advantages to be gained
from Southern and Eastern Railroad commu
nication with this point. It will afford an
outlet that we have long needed, and the advantages
in store for our Southern friends, in
the consummation of a project like this, is forcibly
set forth in the able articles from the
Chester and York papers.
THE BLACK FIRE KING.
A newspaper extract of somewhat doubtful
origin was circulated some time ago, giving
an account of the wonderful performance of
a negro man in Talbot county, Maryland,
in handling red-hot iron and doing various
other feats with fire, and now a correspondent
of the New York Herald has furnished
details of the matter with the names
of witnesses. He says:
Business recently called me to the countyseat
of Talbot county. While there I heard
from several gentlemen of'prominence the
story of a negro blacksmith, who lived in an
adjoining county, upon whom fire had no
effect whatever. The story was so incredible
that I gave it little heed. A day or two after
I heard of this remarkable negro, Mr. T. K.
Robson, editor of the Easton Star, called and
stated that the negro was in town, and that
the physicians were going to make an examination
of him, and invited me to witness the
operations. Mr. Robson and myself went
at once to Dr. Stack's office, where were assembled
Drs. Anderson, Goldsborough and
Coraegys, of Easton ; Dr. J. A. Johnson, editor,
of the Journal at Easton; Mr. A. A.
Pas caul t and Mr. John C. Henry, aU nrftmi^,,
nenFcilizens' of "TaTBot'county: .
A brisk fire of anthracite coal was burning
in a common coal stove, and an iron shovel
was placed in the stove and heated to a white
heat. When all this was ready the negro
pulled off his boots and placed the hot shovel
upon the soles of his feet and kept it there
until the shovel became black. His feet
were then examined by the physicians, and
no burns could be found, and all declared
that no evidence of a heated substance hav- j:
ing come in contact with them was visible.
The shovel was again heated red hot, and j
taken from the stove and handed to him. He
ran out his tongue as far as he could, and laid j
his tongue upon it, licking it until it became
cooled. The physicians examined the tongue,
but found nothing to indicate that he had
suffered the least from the heated iron.
A large handful of common squirrel shot
procered from a store near Dr. Stack's office,
was next placed in an iron receptacle and
heated until melted. The negro then took
the heated lead into the palm of his hand, 1
and then put into his mouth, allowing it to
run around his teeth and gums, He repeated
the operation several times, each time j
keeping the melted lead in his mouth until it:
solidified. After each operation the physicians
examined him carefully, but could find j
nothing upon his flesh to indicate that he had j
beeu iii the least affected by the heated sub-!
stance he had been handling. After the per- j'
formances with the lead he deliberately put
his hand into the stove, in which was a very
hot fire, took therefrom a handful of hot coals
and passed them about the room to the gen-1
tlemen present, keeping them in his hand some |
time. Not the slightest evidence of a burn ,
was visible upon his hand after he threw the I
coals back into the stove.
The exhibition was regarded by all who witnessed
it as most remarkable, for there was
no opportunity for the practice of chicanery.
Every gentleman present was there for the
purpose of detecting, if possible, any trick?if
trick there was?and none could have had the
least interest in aiding or abetting the negro
in his performances. Whatever solution may
be had of this matter, there can be no doubt
but that this negro handles fire in the manner j
set forth above, without the use of any me-!
chanical or chemical appliances whatever, for i
he has been subjected to the severest tests i
possible, not only at the time specified by me,
but at several other times and places, and in
the presence of some of the first men in the
State of Maryland. I have conversed with a
great uumber of people who have seen him,.
gentlemen of education and integrity, all of;
whom declare that they do not believe that
fifn liou tVin lnaut nnnn Vii<3 flpsh
,UV *MV' ?
After he had concluded his performances in
Dr. Stack's office I sought an opportunity to |
converse with him. I found him very igno-i
rant, not able to read or write, and in all respects
an unadulterated negro. His name is
Nathan Coker, and he is about fifty-eight
years of age. He was born in the town of
Hillsborough, Caroline county, Maryland,
and was the slave of Henry L. Sellers, of that
place, by whom he was sold to Bishop Emery, i
In relation to his ability to handle fire, and
how he first became aware of it, he said :
"Boss, when I was about thirteen years old,
old Massa Emery hired me out to a lawyer
whose name wasPurnell. He treated me badly,
and did not give me enough to eat. I
spied around the kitchen one day, and when
the cook left I shot in, dipped my hand into
the dinner pot and palled out a red-hot dumpling.
The boiling water did not burn, and I
could eat the hot dumpling without winking;
so after dat I often got my dinner dat way. I
has often got de hot fat off the boiling water
and drank it. I drink my coffee when it is j
boiling, and it does not give me half so much
pain as it does to drink a glass of cold water.
I always like it just as hot as I can get it." j
I then interrogated him as to the effect heated
substances had upon his flesh, and asked him t
when he handled them with his hands if he
did not suffer more than when he took them
inwardly, to which he replied, "No, boss, I
often take my iron out of the forge with my j
haud when red hot, but it don't burn. Since
I was a little boy I have never been afraid to
handle fire." He then stated that often when i
by himself he would pick up red hot iron because
his tongs were not handy, and that he
never felt any discomfort from it. He felt no
more harm, he said, from handling fire than i
stones.
I could cite a great number of instances be- j
side those mentioned, and give the names of!
a large number of gentlemen of high stand- i
ing who have witnessed the wonderful doings j
of this untutored African ; but I do not deem j
it necessary, as what I have stated cau be ,
more than authenticated by almost any prom- i
inent man living in this locality. I am thor- i
oughly convinced, from personal observation,
that fire has no effect whatever upon his flesh,
and I am sustained in that belief by the united
judgment of all gentlemen who have seen him, I
including a large nniuber of physicians.

MAN is, naturallv, a restless, dissatisfied being,
always longing for something to fill the
idling void, hoping against hope, and ever prone
:o build imaginary rustics beyond the regions of
lir, much less his own ability. Have pationce.
not as the indolent fisherman, but like faithful
Job." Achieve, not as the raving lion, but like
the gentle dews of night. Pursue, not as the an*ry
billows of a troubled sea, but like the silvery
moon traveling its trackless course. Thus be
your habit of conduct and "cheap JOE" is your
man. He lives with you and for you. Ho has
lone his best for yon in the past and desires to
5ervo you more" profitably still. Ladies and
Gents, your Winter Goods and parlor suits will
ho here*soon enough. Don't fret. You shall be
accommodated in due time.

SUPPOSE that you are in the South Sea Isles, i
where the bread-fruit grows, and, that by |
chance or on purpose, you scatter some of its pre- j
cious bunches on the sea. At the moment you |
may feel that they are lost, but should the winds 1
and waters waft them to one of those reef-islands <
with which such seas are thickly studded, the i
wandering seeds may get washed ashore, ana be- |
neath those brilliant suns, may quickly grow to a
bread-fruit forest. And should some disaster, (
inner T7??ra nftnr wrnck vou on that reef, when
these trees are grown, ancf their clusters ripe, you <
may owe your sustenance to the bread that you
cast on the waters long ago. 1
Wealthling, be you husband, be you father, or :
be you friend of humanity, then buy your wife, '
your child, or some worthy, though poor soldier's <
widow, one of Singer's NEW FAMILY SEWING
MACHINES. Cast your bread upon the
waters. Who knows but that your bread in future
years may depend upon this very act, such is the
husbandry of the All wise. Do the right deed and j
commend it to his care. And though the waves ,
of circumstance may soon waft it beyond your (
ken, they only waft it to the place prepared by <
Him who cannot err. And whether hero or here- i
after, the result will be found, and the reaper will j
rejoice that he once was a sower.
