The Circuit Court adjourned on Saturday, after a laborious term, during which a good deal of business was despatched. Judge Pressley, the presiding officer, won golden opinions from members of the bar, witnesses, suitors, and, in fact, all connected with the proceedings of the Court, by the ability and impartiality with which he discharged his duties. Among the cases disposed of during the second week of the term, the following attracted public interest: Win. Armstrong vs. Cheraw and Chester Railroad Company. This was ail action to recover damages for injuries received by a fall from a trestle while engaged in repairing the same. Verdict in favor of the Railroad Company. J. Harvey Smith, survivor, vs. the National Bank of Chester. This was an action to re cover collaterals deposited in the bank by U. "VV. Melton, and claimed by Smith as the assets of Smith & Melton. The case had been referred to C. E. Sj>encer, Esq., of Yorkville. After hearing the report and argument, it was referred kick to Mr. Spencer to take further testimony and rejiort at the next term of the Court. Chester Division No. 10 Sons of Temperance, was reorganized on the 19th instant, with 33 members. The following officers were elected to till the unexpired quarter, ending March 31st: W. T. D. Cousar, W. P.; John % II. Buchanan, W. A.; Henry C. Rothrock, R. S.; W. II. Rosborough, A. R. S.; B. M. Spratt, F. S.; J. C. Hardin, Treasurer; Rev. A. P. Pugh, Chaplain ; Win. II. Elliott, Conductor; J. E. Walker, Assistant Conductor; Frank Whitlock, I. S.; Willie Cousar, O. S.; J. Webb Parker, P. W. P. The prosjiects are good for a flourishing lodge in this place. I learn that our Representative in the Legislature, Capt. O. Barber, of Richburg, who, in the last campaign pledged himself for a reduction of }*er diem, has placed at the disposal of the School Commissioner of this county the sum of forty dollars to be devoted to educational purposes. This act of Capt. Barber, while commendable, will also prove beneficial. During a recent visit to the office of the Countv School Commissioner, I learned that lie keeps on hand a full supply of books for the use of common schools. These books are recommended by the State Board of Education, and are sold by the School Commissioner at about 75 per cent, less than they can be purchased in the stores. Mr. D. B. Rothrock is already preparing to enter the lists as an exhibitor at the County Fair next fall. lie has two fine BerkshireChester pigs, now five months old, but well grown and large for their age. By recent orders the bar rooms are now prohibited from selling spirits on Sundays.

A meeting of the citizens of Western York was held at this place last Friday, for the purpose of discussing and setting forth the advantages and necessity of making a survey of Broad river, preliminary to improving the ? "' v.nwioi-in?? if imvifrsililfi for small DUCaill (I1U( ivimvkMtg, ?V . .0??? steamers. The advantages of the proi>osed work, and its results to the future develoj)ments of a section remote from Railroad facilities and without the advantages of shipping, were discussed at length. Several gentlemen being present who are practical in their knowledge of the river, and who have had experience in boating upon it with flat-bottom boats, say, that only money and means are necessary to make the scheme a success. Capt. John B. Mintz, who has boated on the river, says the rapids can be ascended by throwing up breakwaters in a diagonal direction, thereby eddying the water, the boat turning across the river from bank to bank, but gradually ascending the stream. The meeting appointed Capt. John B. Mintz, J. A. Deal, Esq., and Dr. John G. Black, a committee to get up all necessary facts and forward them to Representative Evins, to l)e placed by him before the Surveyor-General. The committee, agreeably to instructions, immediately prepared their report, of which the following is a copy. . 1. Between Columbia and the Atlanta and Charlotte Air-Line Railroad bridge, and lying on either side of Broad river, there are eight counties which produce a large per centage of the cotton and grain croi>s of the State, and 1 the greater part of these counties are remote from railroad transportation. The farming interest of the section named would lie greatly promoted, and the vahie of the property would be greatly increased by oi>ening up this route. 2. That the section of country embraced in the counties of York and Spartanburg contains large beds of iron ore of sui?erior qualiity, which is not utilized for lack of stone coal, which could be supplied by steamers. The same section also contains inexhaustible quantities of limestone of excellent quality for building or agricultural purposes, and also could furnish the sulphuret of iron, from which sulphuric acid is made, and is so necessary in the manufacturing of fertilizers at Charleston, which forms one of the important industries of that city. ? rni. *'* rv-P +La /lAiinfmr io Lnv/lonarl ). 1IUS 9CC11U11 Ul 11IC U/UUUJ AO wmuvuvu by high railroad freights, as we labor under the disadvantages of having no competing routes; and the carrying trade 011 this route, in the taking of cotton and grain to Charleston, and bringing back supplies, including fertilizers, would lte very heavy. 4. It would cause manufacturing to be carried on at the numerous immense water powers that are to be found on Broad river, and which are now neglected on account of having no convenient means of transporting the manufactures to market. 5. The navigation of Broad river by small steamers, as high as t lie Air-Line liailroad bridge, would render this large and fertile section of the country accessible from the East and North-west, as well as the South, of which it is now to a great extent deprived. We desire to say to you further, that these assertions we believe to l>e true, and that 110 I part of the United States would better repay the outlay than this. If we can aid you, in any way, in your praiseworthy efforts to open up Broad river, we shall lie happy to do so. Very resjiectfully, John B. Mintz, J. A. Deal, John G. Black. Pleasant Walls, a colored man, said to be 08 years of age, died here last Friday. In the days of slavery he was the servant and foreman of Mrs. Walls, of Fairfield. On the aj>proach of Sherman's army, his owner fled, leaving all her probity, including plate and , valuables, in the hands of this trusty slave, i The other negroes on the plantation informed I the soldiers that Pleasant had charge of all the j valuables of his mistress, when they hanged j him by the thumbs and tortured him in many other ways to induce him to reveal the place j of concealment of the property entrusted to his care; but he was true to his trust, revealed nothing, and in due time returned money and valuables to their proper owner. Such an in- j stance of devotion is worthy of preservation, j Ego. j For the Yorkville Enquirer. THE FARMING INTERESTS. The time has come when the farmers of York county must put on their jterspective; glasses and scan the horizon with the view of j examining the prospects for their future exis-! tence. An enterprising farmer, living at j "Goose Pond Farm," Virginia, says: "I was j raised 011 a farm in Scotland and came to America and settled in Michigan. The farms in Scotland are enclosed with stone walls; the i barns are built 01 tne same materials, m Michigan I found plank fences and framed barns. After remaining in Michigan for one year, I moved to the South because of the cold weather. In Virginia I found zig-zag fences and log barns, and the lands improperly cultivated," &c. The farmers of the South should infer from this that retrenchment and reform are needed in our ranks, and that the work should commence at once. Our lands are wasting away. The greater part of our lands are old fields and waste lands. "King Cotton" has lost his crown, and we must soon seek another ruler for our country. Some practical means must lie resorted to in order that our old fields may be brought back into cultivation. Since the "no fence law" has come into ojieration, we can make good pastures and remove all surplus fences, fill up the gullies with old-field pines, of which every farmer has a surplus, clean up fence rows, plow up old fields, sow more grain, grass and clover, and save our forest lands. Our soil will produce, if the proper means are used, everything that is necessary for the comfort of human lieings and for the sustenance of man and beast. AVe have been delivered, thank God! after so many years of suffering, from the hands of the most unmitigated set of scoundrels that ' ? ? f ever scourgeu me nuiimu i*w;c. i wi They have stepped down and out, and I fear they are drifting toward that land where ice cream is never sold, nor sweet potatoes ever freeze. The Legislature has lightened the burden of taxation that came so near ruining the State, and we are enabled to go to work with some hope for the future. Hereafter we must keep fewer cattle and better ones; build houses and sheds for their comfort, and give them all the food they require. We all know that "scrubby" cattle are of but little value; yet they cost just as much to maintain as good ones, and when offered for side it is difficult to find a purchaser. Before buying much guano, we should carefully calculate our chances for making a crop. It is certainly the best jwlicy to make more manure at home. Not only manure, but make more at home of nearly everything we use, and buy less from abroad. In conclusion, I hope none of us will l?e like the man out west who when asked how much he had cleared the past year, replied, "I cleared a ten-rail fence and escai>ed the Sheriff. Wasn't I lucky ?"
