Cool.?Saturday morninjr, tlie first of June was very cool for the season Fires were decidedly comfortable. Fire Insurance.?Read the advertisement of Mr. J. J. Mackay, who represents several first class fire insurance companies. Launched.?The new flat, which had for some days previously been in process of construction at the toll Bridpe was launched on Saturday morninp. So, if the bridpe should become impassible, parties can cross on the flat. * 1 The New Election Law.?We publish in another column the new election law, passed the last LegisV are. It will be found to differ in many respects from tho old law. Flat Rock.?We are requested by the president of Flat Rock Democratic ; club to announce that a mretinp of said club will be held at Flat Rock on Sa'urday the 22nd day of June at 12 M \ full ifrpndnnco is earnestly so Jicited, as a vote will be taken on the subject of primary elections. The Guards.?The Kershaw Guards were out drilling again on Friday evening, and we were glad to observe the progress they are making in becoming familiar with the manual and various j manoeuvres which, being according to Vpton's tactic, arc new to old soldiers, who learned Hardee's to perfection. Pictures.?If you want your pictures taken, call on Mr. E. C. Shepurd who has pitched his tent on the lot south of the store of Messrs. Brasington & Nettles Sec his card in this issue. I Personal.?Judge Aldrich and Solicitor Abncy arrived on Saturday, j and arc stopping at the DcKalb house, j It was remarked by many, when it was ; announced that they had come, that | their prompt arrival on Saturday so as to open Court on Monday indicated a return to the old way of doing things Maj. S. II. Adams returned houici yesterday, from an extensive visit to the Northwest. Mr. W. F. Reed is here from Coluui-, Via, in attendance upon Court. A Revolutionary Relic.?We were shown the other day by Capt. James I. Villepiguo a three pout.d cannon bill, which was found upon bis premises just south of the site of the! old Cornwallis House. It is evidently a relic of the revolution, and as such C'apt Villepigue will preserve it for future generations. ~ New Flour.?Mr. Ifcuj. M. Pcarcc has the credit of having gathered and ! prepared for the mill the first load of! wheat, which was converted into the finest quality of flour on the 20th ultimo at the mill of Mr. James H. Vaughan. six miles north of Camden. Everybody who has tried it Fays it is economy to produce our flour at home. An Expert Swimmer.?A few days i ago a young man of Cauiden lost a gold ring in the factory pond while lie was j out swimuiiuig near the middle of it, where the water was about fifteen feet deep. On Thursday last he thought j he would try diviog for it, and on the second attempt found the ring and) brought it up Who can beat this* a ua?m, pp Mmitia Company.? ?\ ilUl u blk ? I.W.. ... The young men of the Hanging Hock section mot at Magarie School House on the 25th ultimo and organized an infantry company with the following officers: J. K. Trnesdel, Captain ; Lieutenants; J. V. Welsh, 1st; J>. N. Jonrs, 2d , and B. F. Haile ud. The companv has a membership of forty one rank and iile, and it is expected that many others will join soon. Ccrsi.vu on the Street.?Abram Knglish, colored, h^ing rlightly under the influence of fj?iritns frummti Saturday evening, made himself very disorderly by cursing on Broad Street in front of the store of Capt. J. W. Mc" Curry. Policeman Pock Carter, also colored, happened aloug about that time, and taking charge of Abram I' d him with great difficulty to the guardhouse, where ho remained long enough to learn that it is not well to violate the town ordinance in reference to the use of j/rofauc laogutige ou tbc atiects. [ DtSAI H.JNTKI).?The exeuisiun to Charleston on the -2l?th ultimo was aj failure so far as Camden wmrcottcornrd, I though several of our people wished to avail themselves of the nppojtuitity to visit Charleston. An excursion train was advertised to leave Camden on that | day, but somehow or other it didn't j come, and many wore disappointed. Frauds.? Wc are indebted to S*nn-' tor John T?. Co?hrnn, of Anderson' County, for a copy of the report of the Joint Investigating Committe. of which he was Chairman, in the matter of the election of Honest John Patterson to thfl Foiled States Senate. The report is rich reading, and shows up in their proper color? the harpies who feasted so long upon the vitals of South Caro* 1 Una. I Another Democratic Club.?The!1 Democratic voters living between Flat!1 Rock and Buffalo, finding it inconvcn- , ient to attend the meetings of the club at j1 either of those places, met on the 25th 1 of May at Magarie School House and ' organized with the following officers : 1 W. R. Bruce, President, Ann>8 ' Rough, 1st Vice president; William J. 1 Jones. 2nd Vice President; Jauics V j( Welsh, Corresponding Secretary; and j1 J. E. Truesdcl, Recoading Secretary1' and Treasurer. 1 1 At Large and Armed?Kmprson Benjamin, colored, who was convicted at a rceeut term of the U. S. District Court, and who escaped from the dep- ' u?5 marshal at Kingsville, is said to be ' lurking in the neighborhood of his ' home on White Oak. and is represented a? being armed to the troth and deter mined not to be arrested. He would do well to Darn a lesson from the fate of David Huison who ventured to resist ' ariest a few weeks ago. One cannot Gght the law with impunity. I Lend us Your Ear.?We do not believe in making a dunning machine ' of a newspaper, u<r have we been be?- ' tin? delinquents once a week, once a month, or even once a quirter to pay1 un. But the priuters must live, our creditors must be paid, and we arc obliged to have money. So persons j who are indebted to this office will p'.pase bear in uiind that we have not forgotton them, and that in the present emergency we will be most glad to reeeivs even a small amount of what they owe us. , Jacob's Wf.i.l.?Can not our city j, fathers have the well on Monument Square cleaned out, and put in a condition so that the water can be used ? i Many of the people of the neighborhood have to go a great distance for water now, whereas, if thai well was in fix, they could get it near at hand. It is their earnest request that the council will help them. They want a bucket and windlass to it?not a pump?so , that the water can be kept puro and good alwavs. Seniors AVVI'.AY.? A serious diffi cully occurre d at Lynche's ('rock, between a couple of young tnen. Meesr.3. George Newman and George Sowell, on the 1 Stli of May, the former Leinpr seriously, but not dangerously cut in the hack by the latter. Trial Justice D. M. Hethune was called in, and issued a warrant for the arrest of Sowell, who was. after some difficulty, taken in custody by the constable, but effected bis escape before they reached the office of I the Trial Justice. Newman was doing well at last accounts. After Them.?Our worthy board of County Commissioners are determined to discharge their duty in all things, but, if we may permitt"d to judge from something that wc beard the other dnv, they arc now and will he as long as they remain in office right straight after road defaulters. The welfare of every community demands imperatively that its public roads should be kept in thorough repair,J and (good citizens everywhere will endorse i" J the efforts of the Commissioners ,f> i bring defaulters to punishment as the Statue requires. \ J).\.\?KROt:s Affair?On Saturday morning as Cornelius Certain, was jcoming with his wife to Camden, be' was set upon just on the other side of | the Depot Creek by Williatn and Thomas lioykin, his brothers in-law, with a stick and pistol. One blow from the stick broke bis ttosc and others bruised bis ' body about tho oruis and shoulders'. Thinking that they were intent upon taking bis life, ho jumped from bis wagon and dashed into the swamp, , whereupon several pistol shots were fired ut him. It happened that none of tho shots took effect upon bis person, and he made bis escape, arriving in .'own a short while after the occurrence, and making complaint to Trial Justice DePass. by whom William and Thomas Boykiu, n? principals, and Isaac l?oykin , and John Rhodes, accessories, were arrested and placed under b >nd to app< ari before the Court of Sessions this week and answer to to the charge of assault, and battery wi'h intent to.kill. The j partus arc all colored. umLvw ?? i ?m CtOBB m * General.?As fir as we have bc-tn able to ascertain the determination Lv tlie party under any aud all circutnstnn- j cos, jiriinaries or no primarie?, is gen- | era! ann>n<r the Democratic voters of Kershaw County. And this is as it should be. The difference of opinion, which now exist in reference to primary elections, are merely differences. All are actuated by the same motive, and have no other motive in view but the success of the party at the polls on the 5th of November. It is but necessnry for us to s'and together, and pull earnestly together, and Radicalism will be ( killed in Kershaw fbr once and forever. The Georgetown Railroad.?The Georgetown Tours ami Comet of the 1 23d ultimo says that 254 shires have been subscribed in the town of flenrfre- ( town to the capita' stock of the fJrorcc- j town rnd North Carolina Narrow Guajre j, Railroad. What lias Camden to say on , the subject ? and what does she propose to do in the premises * A railroad . From the coast to the mountains by wav of Camden would be of inca'culablbenefit to our town and to the people in ill of the up country. The nad wil j rnmc this way if we put forth a little | effort to get. it. If we do not, it will go , by Uishopvillc to Monroe, N. 0. In | that event, Camden would he most offactually left out in the cold. ( ,;ITe Didn't Mean It."?Some lime since a squib uoder this head ap- T peared in the Journal. It had refer- ( ence to a good Democrat and friend of , ours who, in a fit of passion with a littie despondency, declared that he would c not vote for Hampton because flic t limes arc so bard. Strange to say no < less than four persons, including the , gentleman alluded to, have conic for- , ward and pleaded guilty to the soft im- , pcachment, each thinking that we were going for him. It is enough to sav . lhat all acknowledged their error, took : back what they had said, and are now : imong the most enthusiastic Hampton ( men to he found in the County. A man docs not always mean what he says. We Mtst.?That we must, come t mmII l,o victorious in the next election is universally admitted by the , Democrats of our county. We arc now standing, as it were, on a prec'piee ^ where it is very difficult to retain a foothold; nor will wc be out of danger f untii the top of this precipice is reached, So is it with us in regard to the next election. Should the Radicals once ' more get the reins of the government in their hands, we are gone forever. Rut, r?n the o.hcr hand, one more triumph will p'acc us entirely out of dancer So 1 let every citizen, who calls himself a Democrat, do his very best and stick to < his party, primaries or r.o primaries, and ours will be the triumphant party i on the 5th of November. i Tun Isst'K.? Two y-ars ago the Democrats of South Carolina showed j '.heir ability, by organization and harmony and unify of purpose to cop? sue cessfully with the Radical party. This time, however, the case is different Instead of meeting aud putting to flight a common enemy, the Democrats of South Carolina, and of Kershaw county. mu?t prove their ability to govern themselves, to hold on to what they have already gained, and to plant their colors further within she camp of tlic enemy. If we make a step backwards?if we fail to carry the next election?it will be for the want of harmony anion;; ourselves. It will prove conclusively, that while nble to whip out Radicals, we can not povern ourselves, and are therefor* incompetent to povern others. This seems to us to be the real issue.

At 10 o'clock yesterday Judce \ldrich. accompanied by the Solicitor ind Sheriff, entered the Ooart Room, ind court was called to order. The rolls of the Grand and Petit Juries wra then called and excises heard. Dr. W. R. Nelson was appointed Foroman of the Grand Jury, j jpho were then sworn. His Honor then handed his com-: mission to the Clerk, to be read to j the court, after which Clerk Cly* burn read his own commission. His Honor delivered his charge to j 'lie Grand Jury. His first allusion was i to the pleasure it pave him. tn be apain ! before them, after an absence of eleven vcars from the bench, and under cireurn-! stances so gratifying, in contrast to the I past years of oppression, fraud and injustice. The days of prosperity and peace were apain dawninp upon us and it was the duty of each citizen to work fur their maintenance. No people could feel secure without an upright bench, j supported by an honorable bar. IIe| w is sorry to see that a feeling of unrea-' sonabb prejudice existed against the bar.: The lawyers as a class were honorable \ and upright, and history showed the ser-; vice they had rendered their country, i In all the wars of our country, from the Revolution, the barhnd furnished its full: quota of true men. IIo felt mortified to sec this prejudice existing. His Honor especially called the attcntinn of thr Grand Jury to their duty in reference to the county officers. It. was incumbent upon them to investigate carefully and thoroughly each county office and when any irregularities were discovered to present them. The Trial Justices, particularly, needed their attention. They contributed much to the inconvenience and annoyance of our citizens. Many of them were ignorant of their jurisdiction, and have pone so - ------ ~r Inr as to attempt in try CJsoa ui mu.^u , I divorce and titles to land. Tlicy often do more harm thau pood, in many instances taking men miles away front their work, and putrini? them to great trouble and expense for a trivial mat'er. It was the duty of the Grand Jury to present these officers whenever wrong was discovered. The public roads and buildings were under their survedanee, and it, was their duty to seo that they were properly | cared for. His Honor said that there was one thing needed to restore us to a ercatcr : decree of prosperity, and that was work. He was sorry to sec a disposition on the j part of our young men to shun the1 farm, and seek to make a living as: clerks or by other light occupations.. We should strive to make labor hon-: orahlc, and our young men should he made to feel that it was as respectable I to earn their bread at (lie plow as it was to measure cloth 01 weigh shot. We have plenty of land and a line cli- i mate, and by proper application of our energies we could not only make a living, hut add a profit to our substance each year, lie hoped our young men would take bold, and show what tlicv could do. llis Honor then referred to our poli tical status. If.' ur;:p.I Ih?? people to remember our present critical condition. One fitmculo was not a victory, but evervthinj: could be accotnp'ishcd by united efforts. There should be no di vtftiou. Ho hoped all would take uj lesson from the past,and use every effort to prevent a return of such disasters. During his travels on his circuit he had noticed that the crops were goner-, ally good, but in nearly every instance ] where a man had ten acre? of corn, he had twenty acres of cotton. No peo-; pie could expect to prosper by such I planting. Common sense should teach j us to remove our corn crib and smoke J house from tho Wo?'., and keep them at home. His Honor concluded by hoping Providence would be kind to us, and that he would be able to carry out the ends of justice in the cases to be tried before him. The Solicitor then announced that he had several cases for tho grand jury, which were handed to the foreman. The grand jury then retired and soon returned true bills in the following cases : State vs. James Carter?grand lar- ; cny. State vs. J. S. Gladney?assault and - - - ... battery with intent to kill. State vs. A J. Pullman?forgery. State vs. Daniel Brisbane?burglary., The case acainst .Toe Burgess, njias Ceorgc Gardner for ar?on was vol. pro*~ ' fed, as were also those acainst Ben Mc. fairy, B, S. Wallacp, Pulaski Perry and ! William Adams. The first case called was that of the Sfnto vs. James Cirter. grand larceny. ! Oarfrr stole'a cow and calf from Mr. TT. H. Hall. The Solicitor represented the State. Mr. Clarke the defendant, i As the prisoner confessed the theft, | two witnesses only were examined to j i prove the value of the cow and calf, r Mr. Hall and Mr. W. Lollis both tcsti-1' fiicd that the'r value was twenty-five! dollars. j | The jury returned a verdict of guilty i ] in about two minutes.
