I T?w ik? ?erm or Uie Court of General Sessions convened at Anderson Court Houte on last Monday morning at 10 o'clock a. m., Wa Honor Judge L. C. Northrop, ol' the Seventh Circuit, presiding, and Col. J. 8. Cothran, the able and efficient Solicitor of trna cnmlt, representing the 81 te. The grand jury of the past two terms serves during Ibis term also, and the petit Juries Trere organized by the appointment of Mr. Wm. M. Archer as foreman ->f Jury No. 1, and Col. J. D. King as foreman of Jury No. 2. After the organization of the juries, his Honor delivered an excellent and able charge to the grand jury, of which the fol lowing is an imperfect synoptris : It is an Immemorial custom, and, indeed, is the duty of the Court, as well as ita pleas ure, &t the beginning of the term of a Court of General Sessions, to advise with the grand juries and give them such instruc tion in reference to their important duties as it may deem necessary or appropriate. The Court is advised, however, that your panel will not need so fall and minute in struction as ia sometimes given, because you have already had the instruction of two of my distinguished brothers of the bench, and your previous experience in the discharge of your official duties bas been such as to render an enlargement upon them by the Court at this time unnecessary. It is well, however, to impress upon you the high responsibility which rests upon your office. The grand Jury is the corner stone upon which the whole fabric of public Jus tice rests. It is the car and at the same time the arm of the Court. It is your province to advise the Court as to what may be necessary or important to the ad vancement of public justice in this County. It is unnecessary to go into any extended detail of the history or orgonb-Mon of thc grand jury. For the matters in hand il makes no difference as to how it has come I down to us. It is a part of our system ol I criminal jurisprudence, and the oath whicti you have taken is tho best synopsis of thc duties you are expected to perform. Tht Judgo here dissected the oath of grane jurors, and commented upon the obliga tiona it imposes. He continued: You an drawn from the pcoplo because they know the wanta of the public, and can presen the interests of all portions of their County This presentment ls not expected to tx long and elaborate, but briefly stated and as quickly mado out as possible You should see that economy is prese rv < in all tho departments of tho public service And just here remember that you are swon ! to secrecy fn the investigation of ci! mitten This is the core and heart of your oath, am ! the law draws a charm circle around th Grand Jury room. Nothing goes into tha room without tho consent of the Gran Jury, and when anything is once obtnine by them it cannot go out. The object e this is to remove undue influence from you panel, and to keep your room quiet froi the storm of public passions which mr raga outside. Therefore you are bound keep secret all that transpires in your vestigations. The books and deliberatioi of your body arc sacred. It is somct inn said that the walls have cars, and som? times your deliberations get out, but tl Court desires to impress upon you the obi ga' ion to keep secret everything that trai Bpires in your room. You should have r. prejudice or favoritism. Be as far from tl control of human nature in the discharge your duty as possible. Your position is U high and responsible to allow yourselves be influenced by the ordinary motives whi< control men in the transaction of their dal business. The Judge here gave the ju: special instruction upon a number of lea ing crimes, after ?hich he called attcntic to tho expense of our courts, telling the that the trial of ordinary criminal eas cost thc County from fifty to seventy-fi dollars, and hence tho Grand Jury may e ercise their discretion in finding billa, tri vii. 1 matters are presented, you may thrc them out if you see proper. Examine cai fully into your public offices and see he their duties are performed. It is th? fcrtu of this County to have good officers, but is proper that you should examine the Look into the conduct of your County Co: missioners. This-is the most Import? office in the gift of a County, for thia sinj Board now bas the charge of matters whi were formerly committed to sevoral Boar Tliey hold the purse strings of your Coun and not a dollar can be paid out withe their order. You will ateo examine it the oondition of your roads nnJ bridg The maintenance of good roads is one of t highest evidences of civilization, and is the utmost importance to the public w fare. More money is lost to thc peer peo of a country by bad roads and the con quent loss of time and breakage of conv auces than in any other woy. It ia imp sible to calculate the loss from bad ros In conclusion, gentlemen, you will regul your own hours of business. If you < conclude your labors in one day do so, take as much time os is necessary to prop ly discharge your duties if it requires a we The Court relies upon your assistance i is powerless without you. The Judge tl announced that the hours of the Court's ting would be from 9 a. m. to lp. m., ? from 3 p. m. to dark. ! Tho business of the Court was then i ceedsd with, and the Grand Jury found following true bills : The State vs. IlanBom Blackman. Asa and battery with Intent to kill. The de dant was represented by Messrs. McGow Moore and Allen, and was convicted of sault and battery. I Tho State va. Joel B. Newton. Rape : assault and battery with intent to conni rape.

CcthriH ?~ Z"~ midst. After the rendition of two beauti ful tunca of music, Judge Northrop waa loudly called for. and responded from the huts! balcony in a short but eloquent and appropriate address, thanking the company for their melodious compliment, which, ho said, was no doubt paid to the official posi tion ho occupied rather titan to him person . ally. He regretted fliat ho could not re spond to this compliment in such manner as he would like io, but he was not in the habit of making set speeches, und besides, during the most of the previous night ho had been riding upon a rail in order to reach his post of duty in the court room ; but, he said that if he had been riding ten nights and sleep had to be kept from his eyes by propping his eyelids open with a prong, lie could not ?jrego this opportunity of expressing his high appreciation of the noble old County of Anderson, and her peo ple, ??e knew the history of this County, and would never forget thc zeal with which her citizens enlisted beneath tho Rod Cross Banner of the lost cause, under whose folds he had stood for several years, and he would likewise never forget that Anderson County was the last in South Carolina to bc over come by Federal bayonets. The Judge tlrut complimented our poop's upon their pa triotic and prudent course since thc sur render, and, without direct refereuee to politics, congratulated us in common with the whole people of our 8tate upon tho great governmental reform which we now enjoy as a nation and os a State. Ile urged our people to continue in their strides to wards a higher and mote general civilisa tion, and expressed thc belief that an era of unprecedented prosperity and material ad . tnecment was in Btor. for us. With the best wishes for our people, and the most sincere thanks for the compliment they had paid him, he bid them good-night. Thc Judgo was frequently and heartily ap plauded. After more music Col. Cothran was also enthusiastically called for and responded in one of his characteristic speeches, having a point in every sentence, and calling out fre quent bursts of applause. Ho began by acknowledging his part of tho compliment of the serenade, and said that he was re lieved of the necessity of making any speech on this occasion, because the distinguished Judgo who preceded him had so ably per formed that task, but bo wished tc make a speech to the people of Anderson County, because ho had not had an opportunity to meet them in the lost canvuss, to thc success of which the people of Anders .n con tributed BO largely. He referred tc tho grat ifying fact that we wer? now enjoying thc fruits of the glorious victory wo won last fall, and made some humorous remarks about the manner in which the culprits cf thc past administration were leaving tho State. He said let them go, but he hoped and believed they would bc brought back and sont to tho State penitentiary. In con cluding, the speaker expressed regret at learning that there were divisions among tho Democrats of this County. That such ought not to bo the case, but we should stand shoulder to shoulder and heart by heart in the effort to carry forward thc great reform we have achieved, and thereby ke-c-p up the reputation of old Anderson, which achieved so great a majority lost year. Thc crowd then repaired to thc depot, where Gen. 8. McGowan, one of Anderson's favorites, was greeted upon the arrival of tho cars by the compliment of a serenade, which he pleasantly acknowledged. Tho General excused himself from making a speech, npon the ground ot fatigue, and the crowd then dispersed, COUNTY BIBLE SOCIETY. The Anderson County Bible Society will hold its argnal meeting at the Methodist Church on next Sabbath afternoon at 4 o'clock p. ru. Auxilliary Societies of tho County, and all friends of the Bible c?us? arc requested to be present. COBBECTIOH. In speaking of tho Cantata last week we were mistaken ia ascribing its origin to one of the ladies who, though prominent and effective in contributing tc its success, did not begin the organization of the company of young ladies who bestowed upon the town of Anderson ouch pleasant entertain ments as those presented on Thursday and Friday, the 6th and 7th inst. Tho organiza tion and training of thc company was tho work of the accomplished Mrs. E. C. Davis, and, as the affair was so eminently success ful, we deer.\ it proper to correct our mistake of last week, in order that the public may know under whoso auspices the play was inaugurated and carried to a very agreeable end. THE COLUMBIA BEGINER. Wo would remind our readers that we can fllnb the Columbia Weekly Register with tho INTKLLIUEHCEB at three dollars and a half a year for both papers, or to our sub scribers for one dollar and fifty cants a year for tito Register, which is one of tho most ably conducted and reliable paper.) in the State. Col. James A. Hoyt, formerly of thc IirTKLLioEitcKB. is its editor, and that ls a sufficient recommendation to our people, and we hope to receive a number of sub scribers for this sterling j jurnal. Our peo ple should encourage home papers, and in stead of sending their money to Northern .weeklies without sympathy for us, they should subscribe for and thereby help to build up our State papers. THE PENDLETON MANTJPACTURIHO COMPANY. The bond-holders of the above Company, who purchased the Factory and its machin ery, effected a permanent organization lost week by the eVtlon of Capt Augustus J. Sitton President and Mr. Henry P. Mitton Secretary. It is contemplated to put tho Factory into operation as soon os possible. This valuable water power and tho im provements upon it have been idle for Borne time now, and putting thom into operation again will afford occupation to a number of families, besides remunerating the owners, we hope. They have shown good judgment in the selection of Capt. Sitton as President and Superintendent of the Company, and its futuro operation will no doubt be very successful. TO??IT MBETUrO. Thc citizens of Anderson met pursuant to a call in the Court House on last Friday evening, for the purpose of electing dele gates to the Railroad Convention, which meets here next Tuesday. Judge J. 8. Mur ray was elected Chairman, and Cspt, John I W. Daniels requested to act as Secretary. I Speeches were made by Messrs.

DI8EA8B AMO I! O HOGS. MB. EnrroK : Recently we have heard of quite a number of deaths among hogs. A word or two on the subject may bo of value , to those owning this kind of stock. Times aro too hard, and "hog and hominy" too 1 scarce and high, to bc indifferent to tba ex istence of fatal disease among them. All information, therefore, regarding successful treatment is desirable. A few weeks ago I j lost a valuable fattening hog, and lately had another quite sick. As tho former died rather suddenly, I did nothing for bim. When I i'ound tho other was sick, I began to investigate the case, and concluded that tho entire was obstructed intestines. My treat ment was directed accordingly, and proved successful. I have no doubt that this is the 1 nature of the disease in all or a majority of coses. I gave this case internal remedies, but relied mainly upon enemas. These I made mostly of warm soap suds, with a lit tle salt, and used freely several times a day. Each timo, too, with encouraging results. They were made moro effectual by the use of a leather tube. At thc same time I gave in dough about half teaspoonful of calomel, placed back in the mouth ; followed this in six or eight hours with an ounce or two of salts. Being in reasonable time ineffectual, I gave five drops croton oil, followed by five drops moro after a few hours. In due time this with the enemas was successful. In place of croton oil would have used castor or sweet oil, if bod been at band, with turpen tine. Any treatment that will remove the cause mentioned will save no doubt many cases. C. V. BARNET, M. D. HOPEWELL. Since our last communication death hos smitten ono of our best citizens to the ground. Mr. Ch ealey Martin is no more. He died on thc 12th inst., in thc sixty-sixth year of his ago. He was an humble, retired and unassuming but, nevertheless, great man. In him centred those characteristics which constitu?a the true gentleman and upright citizen. A perfect paragon of hon esty, veracity and firmness was he. Strange to say, he died without on enemy. Ho 1 conducted his business on a strictly cash system, ever living within that moral in junction, "Owe no man anything, but to love bira." On the day following his death his remains were followed by a long tram of afflicted friends to Hopewell Church, whore tho last honors were paid thom. Tho funeral services were conducted by Rev. F. G. Carpenter in a sermon well adap ted to the occasion. Ho wai then interred beside his wife, who had preceded him four years. While we cease to call his name let us cherish his many virtues.We bavo a few cases of fever.On last Thursday morning wc hod an unprecedented heavy dew. It was almost equal to a small shower of rain, and withstood the power of the sun in low lands until noon. From then until now the dews have been heavy, but ure ap proaching the usual fofl.The manufac ture of sorghum absorbs every other interest just now. We have Been some beautiful samples. That of J. R. Bolt is worthy of special notice. It is equal to thc best grades of New Orleans, except the peculiar flavor. 1 It seems to us that thc improvement made in the manufacture of this article for tho lest few years is wonderful, and wo feel assured that it will bs carried on to perfec tion.

Upon information, they would call especial atten tion to the bridge over Big Beverdam Creek, cn ftc road leading to Knox's Bridge, and also to the bridge over Six-and-Twenty, near Harper's place, on thc Pendleton rond. A petition signed by sundry citizens of the Fork Townsnlp, in this County, represents that a certain road in that Township, be tween Snow's Hill and Avery's Ferry, has not received proper attention ; that tho same is highly necessary to the citizens of that and other communities. And upon satisfactory evidence being h&?rd, it is re commended that the County Commissioners be required to put the same in good repair, with as little delay as possible.
