TEE WALHALLA CO ?BT.
The proceedings; :of the, Circuit Court of j
Oconee" \3ounty in-Walhalla last week
a ted general interest,- arising from the fact
that A lex.. Bryce, jr., the notorious Radical
politician, was put upon trial for his recent
conduct in regard to the Auditor's books.. |
It will be remembered that the books of the*
County Auditor were turned over to the
County Commissioners in January, and
that these hooka were abstracted from the
office not long ago, after Chamberlain had
sent (an appointment to Bryce as County
Audi tor.; Tho books were found in the pos?
session of Bryce, and he was indicted for the
larceny and. also for receiving stolen goods.
Upon: kelngJarrested Bryce succeedo5 in
eluding .the officer and went to Columbia,
where he prefered charges against several
citizens of Walhalla for abstracting a mail
bag from the post office. This mail pouch
contained a part of the Auditor's books, and
upon Bryce being carried back to Walhalla,
he refused to open the-pouch, which had
been deposited in the Walhalla Bank for
safe-keeping. Thus matters stood when
Judge Cooke convened the Court last week,
and Bryce was.again asked to surrender the;,
books in the mall bag, which, was brought
into the court room. He peremptorily re
fu.sed .tc open the mail bag, and Judge Cooke
ordered him to be taken to the jail until be
was ready to comply with this demand.
Bryce afterwards relented, and agreed to
open the bag at the post office, as the. postal
laws prohibited him from taking the keys
away from the office. The acting' Sheriff
was sent with him. and Bryce again sought
to evade the order of the Court, which was
soon reported to Judge Cooke, who went in
person to the, post office and demanded in?
stant compliance with his order. Bryce
could no longer dodge the question, and the
books were produced. Great excitement
prevailed in Walhalla during these proceed?
ings, and it was natural that the subsequent
trial of Bryce produced general interest, for
the citizens were rightfully exasperated at
the contumacious behavior of this defiant,
lawless Radical, who has been a source of
great annoyance to the community for
many years. The charge of grand larceny
was not proven, as the proof was not suffi?
cient to establish his direct participation in
the theft. He was found guilty of receiving
the stolen goods,. however, and was sen?
tenced by Judge Cooke to one year in the
Penitentiary at bard labor.
On Tuesday morning, Acting Sheriff
Woodin and his deputies passed down tba
railroad in charge of tho prisoners, Alex.
Bryce among them, and doubtless at this
time he is in the custody of Superintendent
Pannele. We understand Bryce expresses
the opinion that he will be released in a
short time, and probably bases this expecta?
tion Upon the pardoning power of Chamber?
lain. But the decision of the Supreme
Court has been obeyed by Col. Parmele in
recognizing Gov. Hampton, and he is not
likely to set Bryce at liberty until better au?
thority than Chamberlain so directs.
Jordan Crenshaw, the nephew of Bryce,
was convicted of perjury, and sent to the
Penitentiary for two years. He swore thut
several citizens of Walhalla, who captured
the niail bag aforesaid containing the Audi
tot's books, had stolen therefrom a large
quantity of postage stamps, when the evi?
dence showed that repeated'offers to pur?
chase were met with the information that
only a few stamps were in the office.
Jesse F. Cox, a brother-in-law of Bryce,
was convicted of grand larceny, and sen?
tenced to five years in the Penitentiary.
His offence was cow stealing, and not con?
nected with the exploits of Bryce.
Besides these representatives of the Bryce
family, Mr. Woodin had in charge two
others, who were connected with the post
office matter, we believe.
THE PICKERS COURT.
The Court of General Sessions and Com?
mon Pleas convened at Pickens on last
Monday, his Honor Judge Cooke presiding.
In the absence of Col. Cothran Col. Keith
was appointed Solicitor for the term. The
former grand jury was in attendance upon
the Court, as no new juries had been drawn
for the term. Several bills were reported
upon by the grand jury, and in their general
presentment they reported that no- juries
being present is the'result of a failureand
refusal of Mr. Leslie, the former Commis?
sioner, to'do his duty, and recommend that
the'penalty of the law be enforced against
him. Judge Cooke issued a rule requiring
him to show cause at the next term of the
Court. The Judge transacted a large amount
of the equity business, and adjourned the
Court on Tuesday evening.
? ' -RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
An unfortunate accident occurred on the
Greenville & Columbia Railroad last Satur?
day morning, between Honea Path and
Belton. The up-freight train, under charge
of Conductor Casson, was within four mile3
of Belton, when the conductor's car was
thrown front the track, and several of its
occupants injured. Rev. B. F. Mauldin, of
Williamston, received the most serious inju?
ries, by being severely bruised about the
face and head, besides other contusions
about his person. It was thought at the
time that his wounds were dangerous, but
we are glad to report his condition as quite
favorable on Monday morning. Rev. R. M.
King, of Honea Path, was slightly injured
by the accident, and also Conductor Casson
and others. Mr. Mauldin was engaged in
paying off the employees on the railroad
when the accident occurred, and was mak?
ing the usual trip for that purpose. He was
'ta"ken to his home at Williamston on Satur?
day, afternoon.

HOPEWELL LOCALS.
As you have asked locals from the various
sections of the County, we propose to give
you an item or two from the above section.
.Hopewell is one of the largest townships
in the County, and is composed almost ex?
clusively of planters. We have, therefore,'
been dealing largely and freely in commer?
cial fertilizers for the purpose of producing
cotton to the exclusion of grain crops, be?
hoving that this system was the shortest way
to success. Feitilizo, plant cotton, buy wip?
plies and pocket the surplus were certainly
flattering a few years ago But ''figures do
not lie" we learned a few years since to our
detriment. Instead of a surplus there was
a-deficit; hence, a gradual reduction of cot?
ton and a corresponding increase of grain
planting. We hear of a still farther reduc-.
tion of the one and an increase of the other
this s'sason?c. g. L. D. Stringer decided .to
reduce his cotton crop this year from twenty
five to ten acres, and to plant this cotton
land in corn, peas, pindcrs, sorghum and
potatoes. W. A. Neal proposes to plant ten
acres of his intended cotton land in Golden
Dent corn. We hope to hear of similar re?
ductions.The Hopewell Cemetery has been
repaired and greatly improved in appearance.
The friends of this enterprise (and they are.
not a few) are greatly indebted to the pro?
prietors of the Hope well Portable Saw firm,
Neal & Guyton, who sawed the entire lum?
ber free of charge. There is but one thing
to regret in connection with this firm. The
Senior is a bachelor. He has, however,
been recently interviewed upon this; subject,'
and we have it from apparent- semi-official'
circles that a reformation at no distant day
is promised. Let all concerned take due
notice, &c.The Hopewell Baptist Sunday
School celebrated its first anniversary last
Sunday. The day was lovely, the exercises
pleasing, the attendance large, and upon the
whole it was a day pleasantly spent. The
unvaiHng of the Key Word of the School
for 1877, as it was called by the smallest
children, was witnessed with no little inter?
est. This exercise was followed by Bev. J.
A. French, of Greenville, in a lecture, which
chimed in with this exercise in beautiful
harmony. After the performance of several
pieces of excellent music, an able sermon
was delivered by the same gentleman.No
one expresses a desire to witness the inau?
guration of Mr. Hayes. HOMO.

Wonders of Modern Science.
The perfect accuracy with which scientists
are enabled to deduce the most minute par
| tdculars in their several departments,, ap
Eears almost miraculous if we view it in the
ght of the early ages. Take for example
the electro-magnetic telegraph?the groatest
invention of the age. Is it not a marvelous
degree of accuracy which enables an opera-'
tor to< cractiy locate a fracture in. a subma?
rine cable nearly three thousand miles long?
Our. venerable "clerk of the weather" has
become so thoroughly familiar with those
most wayward . elements of .nature that he
can accurately predict their movements.
He can sit in Washington and foretell what
the weather will be to-morrow in Florida or
|New- York, as well .as if several, hundred.
I miles did not intervene between him and
! the places named. And so in all. de?
partments of modern science, what is re
Suired is the knowledge of certain signs.
ram these the scientists deduce accurate
conclusions, -regardless of distance. A few
fossils'sent to the expert geologist enable
him to accurately determine the rock-for
j mation from which they were taken. He
can describe it to you as perfectly as if a
cleft of it were lying on his. table; So also
the chemist can determine: the constitution
j of the sun as accurately as if that luminary.
I were not ninety-five million miles from his
j laboratory. The sun sends certain signs
I over the "infinitude of space," and the.
; chemist classifies them by 'passing them
through the spectroscope. Only the pres?
ence of certain substances could produce
these solar signs. So also in medical science
diseases have certain unmistakable signs or
symptoms, and by reason of this fact, Dr.
Pierce, of the World's Dispensary, has been
enabled to originate and perfect a system of
determining, with the greatest accuracy, the
I nature of chronic diseases without seeing
and personally examining his patients. He
has spared neither pains nor expense to as
sociate with himself, as the Faculty of the.
World's Dispensary, a large number of med?
ical gentlemen of rare attainments and
skill?graduates from some of the most fa
n?ous Medical. Colleges and Universities of
both. Europe and America. By aid of Dr.
Pierced system of diagnosis, these physi
cians and surgeons annually treat, with the
most gratifying success, many thousands of |
invalids without ever seeing them in person.
In recognizing diseases without a personal
examination of the patient, they claim to
possess no miraculous powers. They attain
their knowledge of the patient's - disease by
the practical'application of well established
principles of modern science to the practice
of medicine. And it is to the accuracy with
which this system, has endowed them that
they owe their almost world-wide reputation
for. the skillful treatment of all htigerihg or
chronic affection's. This system of practice
and the marvelous success which has .been
attained through it," demonstrate the" fact
that diseases display certain phenomena,
which being subjected to scientific analysis
or synthesis, furnish abundant and unmis?
takable data to guide the judgment of the
skillful practitioner aright in determining
?the nature of diseased conditions. The
amplest resources , for treating lingering or
chronic diseases;'and the-greatestskill, are
thus placed within' the .easy reach of every
invalid, however distant he1 ?S*1 she may re?
side from the, physicians making the treat?
ment of such affections; a-specialty.) The
peculiarities of jjhjtl scientific system ofprap

"The Globe Flower Cough Syrup has
proven a most valuable remedy to me."
Go v. James. M. Smith, of Georgia says:
"I shall always use it with perfect confi?
dence, and recommend it to the public
as' a lemedy which will afford that satis?
faction experienced by me and mine.. It
excels everything for coughs, colds and
obstinate lung affections."
