From the best obtainable information, the total amount of imported corn did not exceed two car loads, and there would have been no necessity ven for this, had it not been for the fact it was wanted at a time when it setraed inconvenient for local producers to bring it to town. The acreage in corn this year is much larger than i it was last year, and the condition of the crop is generally reckoned as being ahead of anything that has been seen for a long time. Our people are gradually drifting in the way of living. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. Equal Division.

While at Charleston recently, upon the affidavits of policemen and others, Judge Buchanan issued an order enjoining John Wyndbam and \v. j. lioweu , for selling liquor. Subsequent to the issuance of the injunction, certain parties made affidavit to the effect that the two men enjoined were still violating the law. Judge Buchauau then issued . a rule requiring them to show cause why they should not be punished for contempt. Wyndham appeared before the judge with affidavits to show that he had not violated the law. Bowen did not appear, and the judge issued an order requiring that he be confined in the State penitentary for the term of four months. Bowen has not been arrested, and it is said that he 1 has left the State. Murder In Greenville.
