James Heed. Chairman of the late Board of County Commissioners, and his co-commissioner, Madison Pendergrass. convicted of official misconduct, left Chester to-day for the penitentiary th? former (white') sentenced to a term of two years, and the latter (colored) for three months. The grand jury, at the present term, found true bills against Dublin J. Walker, late School Commis? sioner, and B. F. Michael and others. Into School Trustees, for issuing fraudu? lent school certificates in the year 1874. Walker is Senator from this County, and is charged with issuing a fraudulent teacher's pay certificate on November 21, 1874. after ho had vacated the office of School Commissioner, and while occupy? ing his seat as a State Senator. The certificate was dated back by him to No? vember 21, 1871, so as to bring it within the provisions of the Act of the General Assembly, which makes teachers' certifi? cates of that date preferred claims on the treasury by setting aside tho poll tax for their payment. The proofs of guilt in these lost named eases are said to be so conclusive that a conviction is certain. [ ('nr. /'/. ion- /lerald. Ex-Senator Brownlow does not always give good advice, either to white or co? lored men. He too frequently substi? tutes passion and prejudice for reflection and calm judgment. But on a recent occasion, since the passag?? of the Civil Bights Bill, be presented to the colored people of his own and other sections of the country some excellent ad? vice in relation to their behavior under the new state of affairs. He says "the best thing tho colored population can do is to accept the situation in which these laws place them, and to reverence and obey all the laws of the land, carefully avoiding everything calculated to arjruy the prejudices of the whites against them, or to bring about unpleasant re la? tions between the nice*." If the ox-Se? nator will now rap sharply over the knuckles that class of politicians who in? flame tho passions and prejudices of colored men for their own selfish pur? poses, he will add to the strength ot his position in the estimation of good men of all parties.?Philadelphia Times. Grangers.?All is not lovely among brethren of the Grange. The Patrons of Husbandry in Iowa are splitting up into independent fragments. The reported grievance is that the Grange has lost all confidence in the National officers, and that the finances have been mis-managed. It is stated that the late exhibition of the financial manage? ment of the National Gmnge will lend to a general withdrawal and abandonment of the concern. Two colored boys were playing with a supposed unloaded gun, a short time ago, in Christ Church Parish, when the weapon exploded, and one of them, named Hammond Major, was so severely wounded that ho died soon after. The Legislature of Missouri will make seduction a felony. The unfortunute girl, by the new bill, must be able to prove that her seduction was accomplished un? der promise of marriage. A colored woman, named Leah Davis, was killed by lightning, in her house, on Mrs. Colclough's plantation, Surater, on Sunday, 14th inet. , her child being at the samo timo severely stunned. The stockholders of the Merchants' and Planters' National Bank, of Augusta, havo decided to close that institution, on the ground that it does not pay to run it.
