except in so far as relates to the parties to
that action.
Two cases under the same title were heard
together. The one asking for a writ to compel
the County Treasurer of York to pay
certain coupons, and the other to compel payment
for the redemption of certain bonds.
The questions involved are identical and the
judgment of the court applies to each case.
And in each, the judgment is that the motion
for mandamus must be denied.

LETTER FROM CHESTER.
Chester, March 18, 1878.
The circus drew a large crowd to town on
last Tuesday. Both races, both sexes, and
all ages, were represented in the throng that
gathered here to witness the performance.
The procession on the streets did not equal
displays of it similar kind on previous occasions.
The clown rode quietly along, without
indulging in any witty remarks, or performing
any amusing tricks. The wagons
containing the wild animals were closed. Only
the elephant and camels were visible to the
eye of the spectator. A considerable nura'
- _:?u
ber were torcea 10 oe sausueu whu a ??*>?? v>
the procession, as they were unable to buy
tickets to the regular performances. In consequence
of the exceeding scarcity of money,
the exhibitions, both afternoon and evening,
were not so well attended as they would otherwise
have been. The pleasure of the afternoon
performance was marred by a fall of
rain, which, leaking through the canvas,
made it uncomfortable for those within. The
riding is said to have been splendid. The
most wonderful act of the performers, that I
heard of, was the lifting of a barrel of water
by a woman with her teeth. It is to be hoped
that a long time will intervene between the
coming of the next circus. The couutry
would be greatly beuefited if all circus companies
were broken up, and all persous connected
therewith usefully employed.
The Court of Common Pleas reconvened
on Wednesday morning, after an adjournment
from Monday afternooB. At that time
the members of both juries united in a petition
to the presiding Judge, requesting their
discharge from further attendance upon the
present term. -The petition rested upon the
grouud that they were ueeded at home to direct
their planting interests. The Judge said
that he would willingly grant their request,
if he could do so consistently with his idea
of duty. The proper disposal of the civil
business was, he said, a matter of the great
est importance; a matter in which the existence
of good government itself was concerned.
He informed the jurors, however, that
he was disposed to do ail in his power to hasten
their departure homeward. To accomplish
this end, he said that, in consequence of
the interruption to business that would necessarily
result from the circus, it was his intention
to adjourn the Court on Tuesday, to reconvene
on Wednesday, from which time he
would push the business with all possible rapidity.
Wednesday was almost entirely consumed
in the trial of the case of William Adams vs.
Chisholm Adams, administrator of Thomas
Adams. The plaintiff, who was at the time
living in Florida, sent a power of attorney to
Thomas Adams to enable hint to draw some
money belonging to the plaintiff. Thomas
Adams collected the money, but soon ufter
died without turning it over to the plaiutiff.
An action was then brought against the administrator
of Thomas Adams for the recovery
of the money. Hon. Samuel McAliley
and Wih. A. Sanders, Esq., represented the
plaintiff, and S. P. Hamilton, Esq., appeared
for the defendant. The defence rested their
case principally upon the dying declaration
of Thomas Adams, that he was in no way in-1
debted to William Adams. There was also I
evidence of several payments, by him, in
Confederate money, to William Adams. The
jmy-scaled the Confederate payments according
to the Corbin bill, and then found a balance
in favor of the plaintiff of $405.
Tn the nfiernoon. the case of J. W. Carter
vs E. J. Worthy was tried. This was a suit
for the recovery of the balance on a note,
which the defendant contended had been
paid, hut of which paymeut no endorsement
had been made ou the note. The jury were
unable to agree upon a verdict.
TheCourt was engaged on Thursday in the
trial of the case of Mrs. Mary Mobley, exec
BSR utrix of Dr. Isaiah Mobley, vs. Samuel McAliley.
The suit was fi>r the recovery of
money upon a note, on which the defendant
W was a surety. W. A. Sanders, Esq., and J.
ST F. Hart, Esq., appeared for the plaintiff; Mr.
W McAliley pleaded his own cause, assisted hy
S. P. Hamilton, Esq. One of the grounds of
defence was that the plaintiff did not make
the necessary effort to collect the note from
one of the principals, John Simpson, when
he went into bankruptcy. Though he owned
considerable property, she made no report of
her claim to the registrar in bankruptcy, and
hy this act of negligence did not share in the
dividends declared in the bankrupt court.
Another ground of the defence was that the
plaiutiff, after having obtained a judgmeut
against the other principal to the note, John
Beard, did not secure, by levy and sale of
his property, the amount due upon the note.
This was alleged to be an act of uegligence
on the part of the plaintiff for which the defendant
ought not to suffer. The jury rendered
a verdict of $2,900 in favor of the
plaintiff, which was the full amount claimed.
On Friday morning the Court was engaged
in the trial of the case of Lineberger &
Hinckle vs. \V. W. Worthy. The case resolved
itself into a question of veracity between
the plaintiffs and the defendaut?the
former testifying that the understanding was
that the proceeds of the first cotton sold by
defendant was to be applied to the satisfaction
of an account unsecured by lien ; the
defendant swearing to the contrary. The
jury found in favor of the defendant.
In the afternoon, a case in which Dr. Moffett
Wylie was sued by some colored men for
the recovery of the value of some cows, was
*-:-J ina.tr f/Miiift in foonr nf rfp.
UICU. X lie JUIJ IVUIIU IU <M*v V. ?MV
feodant. Jurors, to their exceeding great
delight, were then discharged by the presiding
Judge.
Saturday was spent by the Court in hearing
aud determining equity cases.
A number of directors and friends of the
Cheraw and Chester Railroad Company, accepting
an invitation of the President, W.
H. Hardin, Esq., greatly enjoyed a ride to
Rich Hill on Thursday afternoon. The run
was made in about an hour. Arriving at
our destination, we?for it was my pleasure
to be one of the party?found several of our
Rich Hill friends: Captain Barber, Dr. Atkinson,
Dr. Heath, and others, ready to receive
and show us around. We were not
long in reaching the headquarters of the
town, the store of Messrs. Barber & Drennan,
who by the way, are enterprising business
men. There or thereabouts, some of the
party expected to 6nd something of a stimulating
nature, but being disappointed in this
expectation, they partook abundantly of water.
Messrs. MofFett & Atkinson have erected
a storehouse, but will not engage in business
until next fall. Rich Hill boasts of a
Masonic Lodge in a flourishing condition.
Prosperity to our brethren of the mystic tie.
While Rich Hill is the preseut terminus of
? - j?: 1 ???
the road, it is me uesue auu cAi^iauuu ui
the directors to take immediate steps to extend
it. The next objective point will be
Fishing creek, which is about five miles from
Rich Hill. When this place is reached, a
large amount of cotton from Chester and
Lancaster counties will be brought there for
shipment over the road. As the extension
of the road to this point would be of immense
advantage to the people of this vicinity, it is
their duty to aid the energetic and enterprising
President with their encouragement, and
with their means, in accomplishing the desired
result. Our train having been unloaded
of a considerable quantity of corn, it was
ready to return to Chester with the party of
lively excursionists. So bidding good bye to
our Rich Hill frieuds and their town, which
promises to be a place of considerable note,
we took our departure. After a smooth aud
easy ruo of about an hour, the party arrived
safely at home.
Rev. R. \V. Brice departed this life, at his i
residence, in this county, on Thursday night. <
j His health, during the past three or four
months, had been such that his friends enter- i
tained little or no hope of his recovery. He
was the pastor of Hopewell church for many
years, and was greatly beloved by his people.
Iu his death, the church has lost an able and
earnest preacher, and the State a good and
excellent citizen. The funeral services were j
preached by Rev. Mr. Betts and Rev. Mr. i
Lathan, on Saturday, at Hopewell church, j
and the remains were buried in the graveyard i
attached. A large number of friends were
present.
About forty negr es left this place and Low-1
rysville, on Friday, for Kansas. A month or
I so ago, about the same number left here for j
j the same place. Their letters to friends here, ;
giving a glowing account of their new home,
have attracted others. When they shall have ;
experienced the rigors of a Kansas winter, '
! they will be willing to return to Chester, and j
' live under Democratic rule. Qui.
THE RETIRING ACT.
The following is the full text of the Act, .
; approved March 12, 1878, suspending for one |
; year the act of the Legislature providing for j
the levy of a tax to retire the bonds of York
county :
AN ACT to suspend an Act, entitled "An Act to
authorize the levy of a special tax in York and
Chester counties, to retire the bonds issued by
said counties in aid of the Chester and Lenoir
f Narrow Gauge Railroad Company, and forother
j purposes relating thereto," in so far as the said
Act imposes any duty or duties upon the County
Commissioners, County Auditor or County
Treasurer of the county of York.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the State of South Carolina,

act, entitled "An Act to authorize the levy
of a special tax in York and Chester counties,
to retire bonds issued by said counties in aid
of the Chester and Lenoir Narrow Gauge
Railroad Company, and for other purposes

be and the same is hereby suspended for and
during the Bscal year commencing respectively
November 1st, 1877, so far as it authorizes
the collection of a special tax of 85,000 in j
the county of York, for the purpose of retiring
the bonds with coupons attached, issued

of the annual interest accruing on said bonds;
nor is it intended to affect the bonds issued
by the County Commissioners of York county,
in aid of the construction of said railroad,
otherwise than may result from the suspeusiou

A BOOK THAT EVERYBODY WANTS.
We have received from the National Publishing
Company, of Philadelphia, the advance
sheet of their new work, entitled The Pictorial
History of the World, by James D. McCabe,
a well-known historical writer. It is
the most valuable book that has been published
in this country for many years. It
contains a separate and admirably written history
of every nation of ancient and modern
times, and is full of useful information concerning
them, presented in popular style, and
in a manuer that will enable the reader to refer
instantly to any subject upon which information
is desired. The book is a complete
treasure of history, and there is not a question
that can be asked concerning any historical
subject, but an answer to it can be found
iu this work. The author does not content
himself with a mere dry statement of facts,
bnf sketches the life and manners of the va
rious nations of which he treats, in life like
colors, and presents to the reader the causes
which led to the prosperity and decay of the
great powers of the world. He shows us the
various great men?the warriors, statesmen,
poets, sages, and orators?of ancient and
modem times, and makes them familiar to
the reader ; he explains the secret motives of
their actions, and points out the lessons which
their lives teach. A valuable feature of this
work is a complete History of the late War
between Russia and Turkey?the ouly one in
print. The mechanical execution of the book '
deserves the highest praise. It contains 1260
large double-column pages, printed in the
clearest and most beautiful syle ou paper of
the very best quality. The book is embellished
with over 650 f.ne engravings, embraciug
battles and other historical sceues ; portraits j
of the great men of ancient and modern times ;
' and views of the principal cities of the world.
I These engravings are geuuiue works of art,
and were made at a cost of over ?25,000. The ;
great number and high character of these en
gravings make this the most valuable art publication
of the century. It is for sale by sub
scription only, and agents will find that this
book will sell readily when all others fail, from
the fact that it is a work that the people
really want. See the publishers' advertisement
for agents in another column.

"what we know
ABOUT g
cat-tail millet!
The varieties of Millet known as "CAT-TAIL,"
get this soubriquet from a fancied resemblance of
the bloom, or head, to the feline caudal appendage.
That there is more than one variety of this
family, there can bono doubt, and that the value
possessed by the Cat-tail variety over that of others,
lies in the fact of its taking on another growth
or reproducing itself aftereaeh successive cutting.
The "Cat" that we are proprietor of, produces ^
a fine Straw or SIUIK ; grows irum mroe \aj iivo feet
high and has this advantage over the
"BIG CAT"
of our neighbors, that it can be used either as a
green food, or cured as hay.
That our "Cat" is a genuine "Cat," we submit
the following extract from ft letter received from
MESSRS. ALLISON & ADDISON,
old and reliable seedsmen of Richmond, Vh. :
"We sent you the Cat-tail Millet; not the
'German' or 'Hungarian' Millet. It will take
successive growths, if cut before it blooms or
goes to seed."
AS TO THE CULTURE OF OUR "CAT"
it should be planted in drills. The width of the
rows and the quantity of seed to be used will
readily suggest themselves to the discriminating
farmer. We reiterate that we are selling our
"Cat" at a profit, and are offering 20 pounds of the
seed for a dollar. JOHN C. K DYKENDAL.

A FEW MORE WORDS"about
CAT-TAIL MILLET !
IXTE made the announcement three weeks ago,
fy that we were offering for sale genuine Catail
Millet Seed?an article warranted to be pure,
md of the variety known, in this section, by the
ibove name. We are confident that ours is the
inly house here, with probably one exception,
hat is offering the genuine seed. Other dealers
iffering "Cat-tail Millet" have simply been derived
as to the article in question. It'isaltogeth>r
a different kind of cat. We would not refer to
his branch of the subject, but for the wide differince
between the price of our seed and the price
if that offered by other dealers. We speak sin:erely,
when we say that the price fixed on our
leed admits of no profit, and that it barely pays
lost and carriage. We desired to introduce it
imnna fho farmflrs of York, feeling assured that
he cultivation of it would pay them an hundred
'old, and in order to popularize it, we put the
jrice as low as it could be afforded. We still
naintain the price?thirty-five cents per poundled
also the position that the lower-priced seed is
lot what the dealers innocently supposed it to be.
fVe wish to be understood on this point, that we
lo not impute improper motives to those offering
he cheaper seed. They are simply mistaken as
o the name of the seed they offer. For the most
latisfactory results, we advise farmers to be sure
hey plant the pure "Cat-tail," and their fullest
jxpectations will be realized.
For the information of farmers we give as folows
the mode of culture, as practiced by the genleman
from whom we procure our seed?hehavng
cultivated it successfully for several years.
'Bed rich soil, 3J or 4 feet wide; harrow the beds
ilean ; drill the seed on the bed in a small furrow,
us in drilling turnip seed, covering very lightly,
[n cultivating for green soiling, do not put a hoe
brough the plants, but side line with hoe. The
fiants will then stand thick, and being dwarfed
vill furnish more forage. That intended for seed
ibould be planted the last of April or the first of
Vfay. and thinned to two or three stalks each hoe
vidth. It may be plowed with either sweep or
sultivator. For other than seed crop, it may be
jlanted any time after the above dates. When
Irst coming up, the plant looks insignificant and
eeble, but after the warm suns it grows rapidly,
ind on rich ground it can be out every fifteen
lays. Late in June it may be sown broadcast,
vith field peas, on rich soil, harrowed in at the
ate of 20 pounds of seed to two bushels of peas
>er acre. This gives a magnificent forage crop."
We can supply all demands, and will be pleased
o receive orders for the genuine seed.

ETREKA AMMOXIATED
BONE SUPERPHOSPHATE OF LIME
AND
ETIWAN DISSOLVED DONE.
[AM prepared to furnish the above popular
brands of Fertilizers, in any quantities desired,
it the following prices:
Eureka Ammoniated Bone Superphosphate of
Lime, cash price, payable April 1st. 1878,....$45 00
Cotton Option, 400 pounds Middling Cotton deivered
November 1st, 1878.
Etiwan Dissolved Bone, Cash price, April 1,
1878 $28 00
Cotton Option, 346 pounds Middling Cotton,
Jelivered November 1st, 1878.
Freight, in cash, $4.00, or 50 pounds Cotton added
to the above.
Farmers can permanently improve their lands
?id increase their crops by using the Etiwan Disjolved
Bone. No Phosphates are equal to it for
composting, and it has been thoroughly tested
without composting, and has been fouHd to eqnal
iny of the standard Guanos sold, and costs much
less per ton. I can, therefore, safely recommend
it to one and all.
There is also a saving in the cost of the Eureka
ever other fertilizers of 25 pounds of Cotton on
the ton ; and it is conceded to be equal to any of
the Fertilizers now on the market.
Parties wishing to obtain the above-named Fertilizers,
will call on H. W. HOPE <fe CO., who
will wait upon them in my absence.
