Imurtkclcncy off the l?aw mf Landlord
and Tenant.
We havo received a communication,
in writing, from tbe connsel of N. E.
Edwarde, in relation to our views on
the result of the case of Edwarde vs.
Mooney, published in our issue of
Wednesday. It is too long for publi?
cation, and contains matter which has
no bearing' upon the point which was
the real issue iu the oaae whan it was
before the ooort, and- which was the
subject of our remarks. Our cor?
respondent dwells with particularity
npon.the payments saadc by Edwards,
showing that his iou?had bsea paid in
fall to the 8th of September, 1873,
arjd submits that he bad fully com?
plied with bis lew, and was entitled
to wait till October 8, 1878, before
paying again. That is a question of
law whioh would appropriately have
been discussed before tbe courts, bot
whioh has nothing whatever to do with
kho difference,between our correspond?
ent and ourselves. Be it as it may,
the. point upon which, the plaintiff
jeoovered his verdict was this?that
the Trial Justice had no jurisdiction
to eject any kiud of tenants, except "a
tenant at will" or a tenant "under
contract to serve another/' either as a
domestic servant or common laborer,
"or otherwise;" that the words "or
otherwise" referred to the kind of ser?
vice and not to the kind of tenancy.
Thai was !the decision. Whether it
was right or wrong, as a matter of law,
is not for ua to say.' But, viewed as a
sooskroction of language, it seems to
us to be right. The responsibility for
- whatever evil may result from auch a
.law, of course, rests upon the law
^makers! . ,
-Cue oomspohdent takes issue with
us" Upon tli?* effect 'o^our-)?rticle. He
says: . *>H!\ < "
"It is oaloulafced to 'mislead many
persons, and "oa?se'tbenV t? suppose
that there is no luw to ?noble the
landlord to get rid of ; a tenant who
does not pay rent,' Suoh is pot the
fact. The same remedies exist since
the decision that existed before, and
much better, cheaper and 'more expe?
ditions, and lVfound in Section 25,
Poge 198, Be vised Statutes, not Sec?
tion 37, which wcb relied'upon in this
rase and ovot-ruled."
We may agree that inaccoraey in a
matte? of such wido spread interest
would be unfortunate and perhaps in?
excusable. Wo have examined the
section referred to, but find in it
nothing whioh contravenes onr con?
clusion as expressed Wednesday, and
which our learned correspondent
thinks "calculated to mislead." There
is nothing in Section 25 whioh pro?
vides for the ejectment of tenants for
non-payment of rent. It does pro?
vide for the ejectment of tenants who
holt over after 'their leases have ex?
pired. And where a lease expirea be?
cause of nop-payment of rent, then
the tenant may b^ ejooted by the She?
riff, upon the warrant of two Trial
Justices und twelve freeholders. But
the oanse whioh then confers jurisdic?
tion is, we are advised, holding over
after the determination of the lease, and
aot non-payment of rent. Even a
tender of rent in snob - case would not
prevent an ejectment.
Whatever were tho terms of the
written lease in the present case, whe?
ther or not they were binding ou the
parties who continued to deal with
each other after its expiration, pre?
cisely as they did during its continu?
ance, whether or not Edwards' remain?
ing in possession of the premises he
went into under the written lease, and
paying the money iu advance for
several month* after the ulieged expi?
ration of tho lease, (except for tho
last mouth,) in strict conformity to its
terms, would ralso the presumption
that ho still held uuder tho sumo terras,
nre legal questions with which we
have nothing tu do. The ground taken
by us was Hint, as the law now stands,
no court has jurisdiction to eject ten?
ants for non-payment of rent, except
tho Cironit Court. A tenant who is
neither n tenant at will nor uuder a
contract to serve another, nor a tenant
at sufferance, but who refuses to pay
his rout when it is due, cannot be
ejected without application to the Cir?
cuit Court. The inoonvoniencp, delay
and expenso attending this we have
already sufficiently pointed out. They
amount to a virtual denial of the rights
of landlords, and show whither we aro
drifting in law as in everything else.
We have been thus specific, because
of tho importance of tho question and
of tho doubts expressed of the correct?
ness of our views. But really wo don't
soo from anything that he has said
why our correspondent should oom
plain of or reply to them.
** Bototko T/dwic.?We observe (bat
00t City Council have concluded to
sell pot, at publio out-cry, on the first
Monday of Juno, foor of the Oily
mnleo and "the gray and sorrel horses,
with their equipments," The imme?
diate oooasion is to make arrangements
to feed the city pobr, and to get pro?
vender for the rest of the stock whioh
will still be retained in servioe. It
looks as if we are fast approaching the
oondition of a besieged city, with its |
supplies oat off. Tho poor old muh s
and the old gray and sorrel horses, who
have done their duty, have now to
crown their labors by being turned
into food. Foor old mules I poor old
horses! we must console ourselves with
reflections on our water oontraot for
$16,000 a year, instead of $6,000, and
at the rate whioh wejpuy for rannoy,

The OBANQEBDita Trial?Tho Or?
angeburg News states that there was
considerable excitement in that town,
upon the arrival, on the 19th, of
Messrs. Chamberlain and Elliott (coun?
sel for Gov. Moses.) It was expected
thut His Excellency would put in an
appearauce, at which thoro was gene?
ra! disappointment?as it was known
that a true bill had been found again?t
him, aud that Solioitor Buttz had
moved that Judge Graham should issue
a bench warrant. Judge Graham was
undeoided as to issuing the warrant,
bu? finally did so, aud Sheriff Gain
proceeded to execute it, with tho result
already known?resistance, through
the aid of the militia. After argu?
ment by the opposing counsel, it was
ordered that Friday, tho 29th day of
May, 1874:, be assigned for tho trial of
the defendants, Gov. F. J. Moses and
ex-Treasurer Humbert, on an indict?
ment for breach of trust and larceny.

Mb. Edjtos: The last number of
that obscure little sheet, the Christian
Neighbor, published in this city, con?
tains an implied slander on tho chil?
dren of your Oalholio fellow-citizens,
so unchristian and so very unneighborh/,
in referring to their Sunday School
pio-nio, held on the 13ih instant, that
your correspondent, with your permis?
sion, fools it his duty to oontradiot it,
and to say that if a dance was held at
tha Fair Grounds, on the night follow?
ing the day on which the pio-nio was
held, the Cathulio children or their
parents were not responsible for it. I
will state for information of tho editor
of the mis-called Christiati Neighbor,
that Catholic parents have their chil?
dren taught danoing as they have them
taught all other graceful accomplish?
ments, and that in common with
tbree-fourtha of the Christian world,
they do nof think thut inconsistent,
with proper restrictions, with their
duties as Catholics. P. C.
After Glimpses of Greatness.?It
seemB odd to read of a mass being said
for tho repose of the soul of Napoleon
I. This wu8 among the recout cero
mouies at Chisolhur.st. Certainly few '
souls in tho other world nee.l reposu
more than that of the mighty Empe?
ror. Wo think of him ns of ono who
lived centuries siuoo, aud yet tho other
day ho came ns iu lifo before nn Irish
judge and jury. A witness, eighty
two years of age, testified thut ho bud
served in the British army under Well?
ington, and that while in that service
he was stationed at St. Helena during
tho imprisonment of Napoleou.
"Well," said tho counsel, "what kind
of a fellow was Bony?" "Ho wan n
right little fellow, and thero uro few
like him now. Wo oouquerud him, of
course, nod ho was mndo prisoner, and
I was often out in his vessel with
him." "Did you ever discuss religion
with him?" "Like myself, for a long
time ho did not profess much religion,
but I remember two priests ooming to
the island to him. I often sat at his
I table and used his ailver knives and
forks and drank his wine, and that was
an honor. That is more than you can
say, sir." The counsel must have
been bothering the old man, for bo
showed temper in hia answer. But
this is an after glimpse of greatness
that shows how the greatest things in
lifo are aonneoted with the most trivial,
aud that the imperial Napoleon may
even aervo to point a cross-examina?
tion in an Irish court.

The Ork;in or Ibon-Clads.?The
recent death of Admiral Franklin
Buchanan revives an event with which
his name was historically connected,
the extraordinary naval collision,
March 8, 18G2, in Hampton Roads.
Among the vessels abandoned by the
Federal officers in their relinquish men t
at the beginning of the war of the
United States navy yard at Norfolk
was the first elasi forty-gun steam fri?
gate Merrimuc, which, by orders of the
commanding officer of the yard, alter
being sot on fire, had been scuttled
and partly sunk, so that only her rig?
ging und upper works were burued in
the fire, her hull being saved by u
speedy submersion. The hull was
raised by the Confederates, and adopt?
ed by them us the basis of an iron?
clad?a vessel till then unknown in the
navies of the world, excopt that Louis
Napoleon had made an attempt in the
Crimean war to use rafts with iron
armor in assailing the Itussiuu forts.
The original plau of tho Merrimao was
furnished by Lieut. John M. Brooke,
formerly of the United States Navy, I
of "deep sea soundings1' celebrity, and
at present an officer of the Virginia
Military Institute. Chief Eugineer
Williams aud Naval Constrnctor for
ter, together with Lieutenant Brooke,
ultimately fashioned the Merrimuc into
her iron-clad shap?, aud gave ber the
name of the Virginia. Tho hull was
out down nearly to the water's edge,
and a sloping roof of heavy timber
built from two feot below the water
lino to about ten feet above, which
was strongly and thoroughly plated
with railroad iron. A strong iron beak
projected from her bow. When, on
the morning of the 8th of March, she
namo down the Elizabeth River, from
Norfolk, she was the most formida?
ble naval engine of destruction the
world bad ever seen. The wonder is,
that the Confederates, with their defi?
ciency of materials and of skilled
mechanics, could construct any vessel
fit to face a United States ship of war,
much more one which has led the way
in revolutionizing the whole ma?
chinery of modern naval warfare.
When she approached the ships of war
of the United States, on that memora?
ble morning, she bore down on the
Cumberland, as a Northern historian
Bays, "in utter disdain of her rapid
and well aimed, but utterly ineffective,
shots, which glanced as harmless from
the iron shield of the foe as thongh
they hud been peas. Not a gun was
fired by the mysterious aud terrible
ntrunger, until she struck tho Cumber?
land, with fnll force, under her star
beard fore channels, at tbo same mo?
ment delivering a most destructive
fire; while her blow had opened such
a chasm in tho bow of the Cumberland
that her forward magazine was drowned
iu thirty minutes." The sinking of
this vessel and the capture of the Con?
gress followod?a fate which would in
ull probability have been that of tho
whole squadron, if other ships of it
hud not got agrouud. Tho buttle in?
augurated u uew era in naval warfare,
so that now iron clads are relied upon
by ull nations for war duty, and no
government would thiuk of risking a
wooden ship agaiust them.

we advise ull who are troubled with the
complaints now very prevalent?baud
achu, indigestion, disordered Itver,
want of appetite, nauseu, or feverish
skin, to tako, without delay, Schenck's
Mandrake Pills. Wo know of no
remedy so harmless and decisive in its
action. It at ouce strikes at the root
of the disease uud produces a healthy
tone to the.system. Peuplo never need
Buffer from auy disease arising from n
disordered condition of the liver, if
they would take this exoollont medi?
cine when they feel the first indica?
tions of the malady. Families leav?
ing home for the summer months
should tako three or four boxes of
these pills with them. They have an
almost instantaneous effect. They will
relieve the patient of headache in one
or two hours, aud will rapidly oleause
the liver of surrounding bile, and will
effectually prevent a bilious attack.
They aro sold by all druggists.

Destruction op a Noted BuiuoiNa.
About two o'clock, this morning, fire
wu8 discovered in the large and hand?
some two-story wooden dwelling, on
Senate street, noar'Piokens, koown as
the "Gibbea House," but now the pro?
perty of Senator Andrews, of Orange
burg. Owing to the imperfect fire
alarm, the flames had made such head?
way before the firemen arrived, that
they at ouce turned their attention to
the protection of the surrounding prc
p >rty, as immense sparks were falling
in every direction. The building in
which the fire originated was com?
pletely destroyed, but the only further
damage was the ruination of tho excel?
lent vegetable garden attached to the
post hospital. As soon as notice
was received at the garrison, alarm
guns wcro fired, tho long roll beaten,
the bugle sounded, and in an in?
credibly short space of time, op came
the boys in blue, at a double-quick,
< and placed themselves in position to
render whatever service might be re?
quired of them. The burnt building
was somewhat noted, having been oc
copied as a gubernatorial mansion dur?
ing the official terms of Govs. Bickens
aud Magrath; it has been closed for a
length of time, however. We are in?
formed that a colored family lived in a
house ou the premises. The origin of
the fire nnd the amount of insurance
(if any) are unknown.

Words cf Vital Interest.?Will
tho thousands who read columns of
frivolous verbiage every day devote
five minutes to tho perusal of a few
facts which concern them nearly? Oar
ttxtis "Health," und wo will pat oar
eommcutaryjinto a nut-shell. Weak?
ness is indirectly the cause of all aiok
ness; for if nature be strong enough to
resist the morbid influences which pro?
duce illness, of course they are power?
less. Sock strength, therefore. Ic
vigoratn and regulate tbe system.
YVncn tho lire of life seems to be abso?
lutely dying out in tbo system, and
tho miud, sympathizing with the
body, is reduced almost to a 6tate of
imbecility, tho mighty restorative,
Hostotter's Stomaoh Bitters, seems, as
it were, to lift the sufferer out of tbe
Slough of Dcspord, and recruit and
re invigorate both the frame and tho
intellect. Would that all who have
known its benefits could condense
their experience into this paragraph.
They would tell the healthy that
to protect their health they mast nae
this great safeguard against the debili?
tating influences. They would exhort
tbe weak to discard all unmedicated
and impure stimulants und cling to
this wholesome and unfailing tonic
and alterative as tho shipwrecked ma?
nner would oling to a raft in a stormy
sea. They would tell of dyspeptic
pangs relieved, of appetite reatored,
of shattered nerves resting, of head?
aches cared, of disordered functions
regulated, of hypochondria dissipated,
of miasmatio diseases baffled, of fever
and ngue cured, of liver complaints ar?
rested, of heat, privation aud toil de?
fied, of hope re-animated ard oheer
"folnesa restored. Such are j effects
of Hostetter's Bitters. hi24f3^1
Pond's Extract.?Men and women

head with tho Extraot would afford re?
