The single .|UcHti<in at was whether
the election for Clerk of Court, held <>n
November 7, was a valid elect ion. ()s
tcndoif claimed the office hh having

who
yearn and until his uuccessor was elected
uud qualified, claimed that November 7
was not the proper day lor holding the
elcctiou, uud thut the election of Clerk
then held was void. The judgiuout of
the court is that the election of Clerk of
Oouit, held on November 7, was with
out warrant of law, uud that Mr. Willi
tuau, us holding over, is the lawful Clerk*
Council met last week, for the first
time in inoro than two months. Two
policemen were elected to Gil vacancies.
No other business of consequeueo was

that the utfairs of the town do not re

hopti that Kershaw oounty, which did
so much in tho opening of the Inst oam

a regular and daily traffic, without pay

others enguged in'business, and who
have places of business, are compelled
to pay their taxes. These oompluiuts
have been in&do to us so oflen aud ema
nate from such respectable business men
that we feel it our duty to lay the mat

the remedy would be successful in put

The people are thoroughly aroupod to ihe
necessity of electiug liiin to occupy the gu
Ixrrnatoriul cbuir and to rector* the one? |
proud uame of our commonwealth to lieV
former high position among lier sister Mates.
To this ou'l. the people, with one accord,
hnvo resolved to put down radical rascality
and its prime levler, Governor
CHAMBERLAIN.
Notwithstanding this fact, J. W. MeCur
ry, who has just returned fro:n tho North
(where ho bought up the lar^e^t and best
assorted stock of new and desitahlo goods
which it has ever been his pleasure to ofl'er
to the pahljc) intends to se# that hiis custom
ers shall havx the benefit of the low prices
at which ho bought them' The rumor that
a prominent eitiien of Camden had beou
ASSASSINATED
Would no doubt cause great excitement
among the people, but the rush and excite*
niunt of eager buyers at J. W. Mrt'UHUVS
populnr storo eclipses any event of that
kind which might take place.
