A GALA DAT AT GEORGE'S STATION. Annual Picnic or tbe Hethodlst Sun? day-School. [raOH AN OCCASIONAL CORBXaftKOBNT.] GEORGE'S STATION, June 5. The annual celebration and picnic ot the George's Station Sunday-school came off yes? terday, nuder the management of Its able and energetb superintendent. Dr. T. Henry Ab? bott. At ten o'clock tbe school and visitors assembled io tbe church, where the exercises were opened by reading the Scriptures, sing? ing and prayer. Addresses were delivered by Masten A. M. Howell, Bascom Street and Hoi com Harper, who did credit to themselves and to the senooi. After sin ?lng there was a very Interesting dialogue, In which the char? acters were sustained by Miss Met?a Eenyoa and Miss Nina Dukes. The pastor, Rev. W. A. Clark, then made a few suitable remarks, .in bia usual earnest and pleasing style. After Einging the "Chorus of Five," the speaker of the day, Rev. P. F. KiaOer, addressed the au c lenee on tbe duties of parents and children, toe Importance of Sunday-schools, their pro? gress, Ac. Mia. address was interesting and instructive to both.parents and children, and from tbe attention of the audience your cor? respondent ls inclined to think that lt was "seed sown on good ground." As tbe speaker closed his address, thc school sang "Hesannah" with the spirit that should always be thrown.Into this hymn to give lt its . proper effect. After a few remarks on tbe ad? vantages of recreation, by the superintendent, the party adjourned to the oak grove adjoining tbe church, where a bountiful repast was spread. Alter the collation the audience again assembled in the church, where they were edi? fied by addresses from Bev. Mr. Gantt and Dr. W. M. Shuier. These closed the exercises, and we retired to the grove where swings bad been erected, and old and young amused themselves with swinging and other recreations until night. '?. _ R. THE DELINQUENT TAX SALES. Reports from the Interior Pres*. The Union Times says that eight lots ot land were sold under tax executions. The Lancaster Herald says: "The treasurer sold thirty-four tracts of lacd for taxes on Monday lost. But few of these tracts fell to the State, the most of them being bought by the taxpayers." The Georgetown Times says: "The lands offered for Bale by the county auditor on Mon? day i^st were all bought by the State. The only difficulty the State will have in using or selling the lands bought by it will be to find them." The Oconee Courier says the tax sales brought comparatively nothing. The forfeited lands brought comparatively nothing. Tracts worth one thousand to fifteen hundrod dollars were bid in by the owners for one dollar, thereby settling taxes amounting to seventy five to one hundred dollars. The Laurens Herald says: "Nineteen ti?cte were offered, of which four were lorfelted to the State, there being no bidder. The bidding for some tracts was quite spirited, and the prices paid evinced tbe astonishing fact that there are yet some greenbacks lu the country, and it ls only necessary to offer a bargain or a choice article to unearth them." THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Letters from Superintendent Jlllson and Treasurer Parker. The Columbia Union prints a letter from Treasurer Parker, who makes the following pointe : 1. That the appropriation of tb $300,000 was not made till March 13th, 1872. That prior to that date the superintendent could not make the aoportionmeot to counties. 2. That at that time there were no funds in the treasury, all received from taxes having been exhausted in paying appropriations made by the Legislature while In session, and amounts due on previous appropriations. 3. That since the adjournment scarcely any taxes in currency have been paid In. 4a That an appropriation by the Legislature does not put money in the treasury, but sim? ply provides bow lt shall be used when It comes io. 5. That the present embarrassed condition 3 or of the treasury is chiefly due to the fact that for tbe past four years only two-thirds of the tax levies have been collected. The treasurer also promises to pay these claims as. soon os there ls money with which to do it, and hopes tc be able to pay some? thing on the appropriation lrom the past due : taxes now being collected. . A letter of Superintendent Jlllson to the conni y school commissioners is also printed la the Union. Hr. .Hilson says: Toa are hereby most earnestly advised to Instruct the clerk of each of the several boards of school trustees In your county to give due notice of an annual meeting to be held In th? school district under their supervision, on' Saturday, the 29th day of June, 1872. I deem lt ot great Importance to the success of our free common Behool system thai these meet? ings be held in every school district in the Slate, and that each school district raise a llb eral local or district school tax lor the support of its free common schools, for the lo ll s wing reason : 1. The State appropriation made for free common school purposes tor the current fiscal year ls insufficient to supply the educational wants ot the people, and much donbt and un certainty exists as to the time when tho same will be realized and made available. 2. The amount of poll tax collected in each of the several Behool districts ls Insignificant. 3. Tbe local school tax raised in any sohool district will be of great service as auxiliary and supplementary to the State appropriation and poll tax. 4. The local school-tax is paid into the coun? ty treasury, and is directly subject to ihe.order of the board of school trustees, countersigned , by the county school commissioner.

Fuller & Co. on Tuesday evening last, In which Dr. A. C. Fuller was struck two very heavy blows on the head with a bar of I Iron two and a half feet long, and weighing [ some twenty or twenty-five pounds. Tue as? sailant was one of the employ?es at the mill jy tbe name of Joseph Baldwin, and the cause ji tho difficulty grew.out of an order given by Dr. Fuller to Baldwin to shot off the water lrom the grist mill in order to do work in the way of carding rolls. Baldwin refused lo >bey the order, and Dr. F. ai tended to the natter himself, which gave offence lo Bald? win, who seized the bar ot iron and struck the ilows mentioned, Inflicting two severe wounds -one OB the forehead.' the other on the back Dart und near the centre of the head.
