Wait with Patience -After a long waiting and the matter almost forgotten, a friend of oars in Camden was notified a few days ago that there was a dividend of $4 ooming to him out of an in aurance company that failed about twenty-five years ago. W? suppose the receiver of the institution must inh now. or he has found out that there is nothing more left for him to g?bhle up. The New Methodist Church.? This building is having the finishing touches put on and will soon be ready for occapation. The pulpit, designed by Mr. Wm. Tarver and being made by Mr. E. 0. McOreigbt, is of unique pattern, and will present a very neat appearance when completed. It is black walnut, oil finished. We hope soon to be able to announce the day for dedication. Decoration Day.?It has been proposed by the ladies of the Memorial Association that Cel. Cantey be requested to call out his regiment to assist in the celebration on the 10th of May. in the decoration of the grates of the Confederate dead buried in our cemetery. It is also proposed that twenty young girls, dressed in white, be elected to strew fiewers over the graves. | Gen. Kennedy will deliver the oration. Drunken Rowdies.?Last week s two dranken men were passing a field | below Camden, where some hands of Mr. Ario Niles wore at Work, and without cause or provocation, they cursed them shamefully, using the most obscene language a person ever heard. Some of Mr. Niles' children were also present at the time. They then went on down the road where they saw a fine hog belonging to Mr. Niles, when they delib. jrately drew their pirtols and shot it. M. ,^T'les has procured a warrant for iUl* their arrest, wd * is to be toped they will be severely pJ,D'8^e^* Bad Roads-We have been re' ^f1 til quested to oall the attention c. County Commissions to the condition or the road between Camden and Liberty Hill. In some places it is almost impassible for loaded wagons, thus compelling persons who wish to come to Camden to go a long distance out of the way in order to avoid the deep mud holes and cuts on the direct road. For the benefit of the people living in that section, ana for the good of our merchants here, we hope that the roads will be repaired immediately, and not compel those people to go to other places to do their trading.

Camden has indeed been quite fortunate recently in having some real good amusements, and we are pleased to speak in high terms of Mr. Thome's troupe. His play of Rip Van Winkle is really fine, and one could almost imagine that Jefferson himself had fallen among as. A good laagb, a forgettiog of trouble for a time is absolutely necessary, and this can be done by any one who patronises this entertainment. We wish them sucoess. Petty Meanness?That was a contemptible low act upon the part of the person who on Monday night last cut the stays that steadied the line of the rope-walker, We think the comimunity would be doing justice to itself if it would take the balance of the rope and hang the degraded wretch with it. His act sbows that he has murder in his heart, bnt is too base a coward to face the yiotim ; so he goes in the dead of the night and lays a trap that would ?

A Heavy Load !?We heard a party of young men talking the other day about what they had done in the way ef loading the old cannon that used to be around here during the campaign of 1876. One fellow Raid it was a positive fact, that he had once pnt f ur penndB of powder, a reck of grape shot, a lot .of brickbats and rocks, and a quantity of mud into it at one time as a oharee, and fired it off. The utmost capacity of the old gun is not more than six or eight quarts, and bow he could get that half bushel charge into it at one time is a myatery to us. We think the Governor ought to see that fellow, as he must be about tbe greatest in our ( State. The Lien Business.?Those of our farmers who are giving: liens this year j have to pay from 150 to 350 per cent, advance on cash price* for all the pro- | visions they get. Some negroes have bonghl old horses anf oxen on liens and promised to pay just three times what they would have to give if they bad the cash. And so it goes ou from j year to year?the farriers getting further behind all the time, until finally the last thing is taker by the mortgage holder, and he is left destitute Just so long as this curse, the lien law, is in force, just so long will our people live in poverty and rags. Wt hope that the next Legislature will blot it from the i Naftet'qf tMe State ft trover ' j The Parade.?Ool. Oantey ordered his reeiment out last Saturday for drill and inspection. Only four compauies were present, but the officers were out in full force?enough to command 5.000 men. Some appeared to he lost as to what they should do, (privates were so scarce,) and were running around looking for a private to boss it over. However, everything passed off quietly. They did not show any great amount of proficiency in drilling, though some nf ?V,a monmueroii IVtiro (nlpmhlv fair. After the parade was over, an election was held to fill the vacancv caused by the resignation of Lieutenant. Celonel Dove Segnrs. Major L. C. Hough and Capt Moses Hough were nominated as candr'ates for th* vacancy Major Hough was elected to fill the position. Many Fools.?"Spring would be but. gloomy weather if we had nothing else but spring." This was the impression made upon our minds on Saturday evening last as we meandered down the streets. The week bad been bpoutiful, spring-like and quite dull. Farmers, as a matter of course, were nt home, busily eDgaged, nnd nothing scarcely had taken place to break the dull monotony of routine duty. However, as we were thirsty for news, and resolv iug to ourselves, that if we could 6nd none, that perhaps it would be better for u? to plunge into the Wateree river and drown rather than make our pap?r a blank for this week, we espied a large crowd around a one-horse vehicle in whioh was a man vending soap, with other innumerable articles and promises enticing as cold milk is in summer time P^ course our duty called us there, and as serva.11^ public wo must report what did P,a(*. There can i j?i?that the vendor De 00 uenyiup was a knave, because lie swindled everybody. and in our judgment be was the greatest sharper that we ever saw, for never have we seen foolishness spread as rapidly in our lives as he forced it to do upon this lively occasion, as he tnade fools of every one, and surely he could not hare had such apt stock unless he had been a prolific root himself.

The best means for promoting the educational interests of Kershaw County have been my continual study since my incumbency, a id as I have been visiting the sohools for the last three weeks, and watching carefully tho general principles by which they are governed, I would most respectfully beg leave to report the results of my visit, ana at rne same time make s^me suggestions to the Board of Trua.ees, which, if adopoted, will, io my h amble judgment, greatly advance the so tool interests. It gratifies me to state, firtt, that conoord and harmony prevails in most all the sohoola in the county. The teachers are alive to th"ir duties?being fully confident of reninnera'inn for services r<*nd?-red. Th?ire seeing to be, however, one or two exceptions to the general rule as far as du'y ! ? concern *d. They will please take notice jo-t here that the trustees ars authorized to f-cale their wages on account of delinquency. I have advia d the teachers as to how they should govern their schools, f whenever in my judgment it was necessary,) and inspired in their minds a universal confidence in the promise to pay?remembering the old mtxim that "money makes the mare go." I did not do thin to allnre them ftlx-ly, because they will most assuredly gpi their pny?it is only a question of time, I m-?nn ?for services rendored in this scholastic year. I have endeavored to implant, moral principles into the minds of the scholars; that they mnst put forth their own efforts with the rfeiertnina'ion to succee t. without which the pfforts of their teachers would avail hut li?tie; showsnt* that thev must w >rk topether mutually, and then nieces* would follow as a natural conscqu-ncc. I would call the attention of the Board- of Trust-"-- to what H-a*. flush S T'onirw-n. Sum-riot nd-r>t of Kdi;? on [ion. Pays in )tis circulars finrivp t?i the evil of establishing tno many school*. He >-ays tl?at hail br*?-n nn*- of the evils of (ho free school system heretofore. and in my thr-p weeks' visit among the schools, I find the truth of this asp* rtion demons^rut' d as to certain localities. This gives rise to numerous oouiplsints. and justly, ton, which can be remedied by the Boards of Trustees, whose duties are to locate the school hous/ii equitably in their districts?say five miles apart?paying no attention to any school gotten up outside of the located schools. If this plan were adopted, all parties would be brought to terms. This would cause ?he schools to he crowded too much, some might say; but 't-?? ? ?? ??- " mow tchirth ft VIICIC la UU CttJjf ni?j " ------ ? large school can b-i managed by one good competent tender, am in at- in iu u?o (he books adopted by the State Heard, to the exe'u-ion of all others.

It. this plan were adopted, the trustees could run the schools longer and pay the teachers larger salaries. The State Board, no doubt, had this in view when they adopted the text books to bo used in the public schools of the State, and I hereby call the attention of the trustees, teachers and patrons to the fact that the law requires tho use of the books -1 i i - n... i) j i. it. aaopcen dj me otace uoaru, iu iuc o** elusion of al! others There arc two white schools wanted on tho western side of Wateree river; one in No 11, the other in No 12.1 will say to our people over there, that we | will send them teacher" as early as practicable. A colored school is wanted in No. 5 and one in No. 6. I have reoommended colored teachers go to those distriots anc teach. I would recommend to the Boards of Trustees to hold back a fund for those destitute places and run them as long as the schools which were started earlier. This is just, because we nil pay taxes in common, and our people should, therefore, share the benefits of the free schools in the same way. A convention of the trustees, teachers and all who are interested will be held before the commencement of another scholastic yenr, when we hope to adjust matters on ac equitable basis. All whsm I have conversed with on the subject favor a convention. Respectfully submitted, Joel Hooon, School Commissioner. # A Liturary Revolution.
