FHKXC'II E<Utor 11 lid I'roprlvlor WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, ( The delinquent tax oil property in | this county Is as follows: State tax * f 11.756, county tax 93.979.76 and school J * tax 93.377* Mr. Rolicrt? has just received a large * stock ot fine groceries and hie modesty j ? does not prevent his informing the pub j lie of the fact in another column. I "We ?re indebted to some one fore copy of Governor Chamoerlain's address * delivered in Greenville last December,on r - the occasion of the award of tbe Whit- \ pitt greek prizes. r Tho children of the First African | ^ l?, Baptist Church Sunday school will give | c an exhibition this evening ut the church. | Tbe programme consists ot an address ! by the pastor, singing, recifatious, dia- , louges &o. We hope the children may I be cheered by a full house. Mrs. Mi'lett, widow of Stephen C.: Millett, is negotiating with French & Co., | < of NcW York, monument builders, for , a monument to her Intc husband, to be erected in St. Helena Eoiscop.il Church ! yard. , A grand Excursion next Wednesday in aid of the Catholic Church will give j our citizens a chance to spend a pleasant day in the country, and the programme offers an attractive list of amusements. L The advcrtismant may be found in another column. h The committer appointed l>y the grand jury to investigate the county nftiars began its work yesterday, and will give the county affair* a thorough overhauling, and go to the bottom, and if uny abuses exist the next court will bring them to light. The papers in m ist nil the counties in the state mention the fact that their I * comity treasurers have rccived the school | fund appropriated by the state but so far I the teachers hero are obliged to sell their 1 claims at ruinous discounts. The State . Treasurer's report for April informs us tlmt he paid Robert Smalls for George ' Holmes on April 13th $9,812.94 on! account of the school fund. We should ' liko to know where the money is. Let the grand jury now in session inquire. r Mr. Lockwood announces in another!" column that he is prepared to nccomuio- ! ' date ourcitixons who want to buy or I1 v sell gold or exchange. This is n gieat , convenience to our merchants who have ' bud much trouble since the failure of the1 Freedmaus Bank to get exchange on : ] New York and elsewhere. j ' j 1 Several of our merchants obtained a 11 supply of silver last week and after jingling it in their pockets till it got too . heavy were glad to pay it out, but fojod i that it came back again directly. One 1 old colored woman positively refused to take it in Change, it was too bright to be 1 good, she thought, and scrip was good . enough for her. < The county commissioners of Suuiter hare paid oat $0,000 tor past indebted ncM all at once. Our conimirsioners r dole it out nt the rate of $1,000 a month, to the pecuniary delight of the treasurer! 9 and the newspapers. The Act levying I the tax in this county provides that they | "* shall advertise our proposals whenever; the treasurer shall report $1,000 on hand to the credit of this fund. C >1. T- J. Smith, of Washington county Ga., Master of the State Grange, has thirteen hundred- acres in corn,thirteen hundred in cotton, and five hundred iu oats.
