Mr. Hugh Montgomery, represent ing the popular wholesale house of 1 T. A. McCreary & Co., of Columbii was in town Monday.

ATErrT O WE~CK .. TraG.--The fast~ mail on the Central Road was thundering along last Sunday even iug with its usual lightning speed, be tween Sumter and Manning, when the engineer saw about eighty feet ahead, a large stick or post standing. on the track. Quicker than .thought ~the airbreaks were used, and the train stopped, but not before the engine had, come in contact with the obstruction, and broken itoff, which on examination proved to be a cross-tie pfaced in one of the culverts and stood up between the ties. It is said the promptness of the engineer in using the breaks, pre vented an accident, as the passenger cars would have been dragged from the track by pieces of the tie left un broken by the engine. This is a bold and malignant effort to wreck atrain, and it is to be hop-~ ed the miscreants mybe vered. Court Proceedings. Below is a resume of last week's Court commencing from Wednesday. Ladson and Rufus Connors were tried for robbery, assvant with intent to ravish and assault with intent to', kill,.and found guilty. These cases I ended the criminal trials and those convicted received the following sen tences: Joe 'Tisdale, larceny of a hog-one year-at hard labor in the penitentiary. Ladson and Rufus Connors wercq each sent to the penitentiary for twen Insentencing the last two prison ers Judge Pressley adverted to the universal prevalence of Lynch law thro-ghout the *United States and stated that this baneful practice was largely due to the light punishment imposed b~y Judges for the commes sion of crimes revolting to the peo ple of a community. He said that for such offences he had established the rule to impose the- severest pen alty' of the law. Th rC-mon Plea opnedn Wednes day. Tue following cases were de cided: W. W. Newman -s. Nichlas Stan nea. action to recover possession: of realtv-verdict for defendent. 13. Pressley Barron, asignee, vs. the County of Clarendon. action on ac count-verdict in favor of plaintif' for 8394.32. Isaac N. Tobias, vs. Francis Duffv et al, suit for the recovery of real.y verdict for defendent. Harper Johnson vs. S. R. Epps, suit for damages-verdiet for the de defendent. G. A. Norwood & Co. vs. G. I. Din gle and Bro.. action on account-ver dict for plaiutiffs for $181. The pe culiar features developed in this suit excited considerable interest and com ment. It was twice tried. When first given to the jury the Judge charged them in substance that there being no contradictory evidence, the law applicable to the case warranted them in finding a verdict for the plain tiff and so instructed them. Bat to the surprise of the Court and spectators, the Jury after remaining out for some time returned with a verdict for the defendant. For this wilful disregard of the instructions of the Court, the Jury were severciy reprimanded, and further admonished that in the future such extraordiiary conluct woul.'l be regarded a cotempt of Court and ac cordingly nunished. A new trial was forthwillh ordered which resulted as stated above. Court sdjourned without day on Friday afternoon. Judge Pressley,s profound legal knowledge together with the' acumen exhibited in delivering his opinions, and his honesty of purpose were the admiration of the Manning Bar. The Judge is of the old regime and is an honor to the judiciary of the State. PA.OLA, S. C., Feb. 12, 18S6. Mi. Enrroi: I have seen nothing in the Tims from any correspondent who O'-asi*-mal wrote with Summerton, and "Friday." and Meipse who-has retreat ed across the Georgia line, swallowed up in cares on "Ox Farmer." The entire field has been unoccupied with one single exception, that of "Sammy Swamp." My seeming neglect can be attributed to nothing but negligence, and though perhaps you might obtain one more competent to furnish "dots" for your excellent paper-however I am going to draw my bow at a ven ture, and fulall my promise, as it is the Editor's business to look after the grammar. * News items are scarce this season of the year. February always carries with it St. Valentines day, a day never in-eh obscerved with old people. It will be a sumshing day however, with lovers of pictures and poetical char acters-they lcok for it, but before this reaches the public eye it will have come and gone and only remembered with the past as a sad dream. Farwers are at work in earnest. Deep ploughing, heavy fertilizing, all otton as usual, and you may look for squaliv times. Oats are dead, very dead from the severe cold. Can you tell us what the poor- debt-burdened farmers are to do? Corn is selling cheap, low down, but when the news gets abroad that the oat crop is killed (when one re-ads the papers) the price o corn will "et way~ up yondier. Our law-makers tried to repeal dhe lien law -some of them said labor would be cheap, andi this w'uole country would dow with milk and houey; but alas! they fell out of the fryving pan into the ire. Caniidates for County ollice are beginning to show sigus of vitality, too early gentlemen; let the people enjoy quiet that they might rest, and the good ladies have time to get their hickens out, for in thie last Canvass we killed our last old rooster. The School Commistoner's office looks to be the first prize and already without mental evasion, three candidates are in the field. There is much. life and pleasure with the young people here, sociables abound, to the great delight of little bos and gils. These entertainments are simple amusements in the order of cand-pullings and ring plays, the top ston of a commencement for early marages. The free public schools have been running on full time, being in success ful operation for four months, teach ers acceptable to their patrons arsit dcing~ good service. Mr. IEditor, 1 am apprehensive my article has been spun to its full len!-th, but cannot close 'till I ask onor t vo questions. What has become of "F~ri <a?" We are always delighted to read his "Summierton Siftings"-ean not von stir him to the bottom, that we may learn more of Uncle "Fed' and the Dutchman's gun? Then where is "Occasional?" Has he ben so smit ten by some tender school nmarmn that has caused him to lose sight of the Tms, or is he so absorbe:1 in pitch and gum, that prevents him from oc casioaly sending vou a dot from the bachelor's den ? Stir him up with a shma iustrument-we love to read his productioas. We close now in comn pimnentaryv terms to "Sammy Swamp," and if I mistake not a wor-thy sprig of the original c~s press, the only corres pondent to the Thns who has ksept us posted since the old year. TOM. PANsoL, S. C., Fel>. G, 1836. Ma. Emon : We said that after the weather moderated we might have something 'to say about the legislature and our snmrt men, country stores andlicense. We understandtl.that at the last siting of the Legislature a numi ber of bills were introduced, and among them was a bill reconmmending that there should be a law' passed re quiring all country stores to pay a li cense to buy seed cotton. We under stand further, that the law was groant ed to several Countie, and we further more understand th::t somec of the -epresntatives from our County fa vored the move so muchl as to draw up a bill requiring all country mner chans i ou C~ont. topay liens of not less than oso to engage in the trade of seed cotton. Now Mr. Editor, we think if this is rnot taking away the rights, or trying t., take away the ights of the poor whlites, anblacks-, we would like L" Iknow what you would call it. The idea, it seeis to us, is perfectly ab surd. The idea! that a poor white man er negro should have to go to take the trouble anld be put to the in COIveniIence of carrying their little bits of cOttol oif to s')lle town to dispose of it is pretty bad. We believe in a free couitrv and a -ee trade-but when things get to tha- pass that a man cannot dispose of what little he makes without paying a license to do so, we wyould say get away skeeter. WXe think they had just as well pass a law sa ying that a man shall n ot sell his corn or trade on his money as to s ' limst not sell his cotton. If there is any difference we would like to know what it is. We look at the matter in this war : if the merchant is reqmred to pay a license to engage in the trade of seed Cotton, or anV thing else, he will add a percentage on- to get his money back-therefore the taxes will come oat of the poor at last. We think, M1r. Elitor, that this sounds very much like something got. ten up by the city merchants or some of the country merchants who want to monooolize the wvhole trade. We think that every man has an equal right to engage in whatever branch of business he chooses to. We are engag ed in this branch of business ourselves, and think we have just as much right to engage in it as any other. We pay all the taxes we have a right to pay. We feel mortified at the idea of our smart men not being able to see any farther into natters than this, and we furthermore think that the voting peo ple of Clarendon County had better keep this in remembrance. and mind who they vote for hereafter, as we need little better legisltion than this. \Ve think we have laws enough now on our statutes, if they Vere properly en frc at the proper time. We were thinking. Mr. Editor, that it would be a good thing if we could devise some Splan by which the Legislature would not convene only once in two years, for it rcdvly seems that they consume more time and run the State to more expense than all the business they do would amount to. Just think of it, what the Legislature costs us every year. It really seems that if the peo ple would be parzieular, or a little more so- than they have been, that laws made by our Representatives ouId stand at least two years without being amended or changed in any way. We may be wrong, nevertheless it is our opm1ion. JUSTICE - 14 Tribute of R speet. At a survivor's meeting of those re siding in the counties of Clarendon and Williamsburg, who were confined as prisoners -,f war, at Elmira, New York, 1861-'63, the following Prema ble and Resolutions were adopted: Whereas, information has reached us from California, -'of the death in that State of Prof. William F. Roe, our friend and benefactor in the dark days of our prison life, we feel it a privilege to place upon record some expressions commemorative of is worth and nobility of character-a character replete wieni every good work, and abounding in the highest attributes that make up the true and upright man. His intellectual attain ments were of the highest order, and gained for him in his native city of Elmira an elevated position among his fellowv citizens. His active and benevolent efforts in behalf of the Con federates incarcerated there, was in pleasing contrast with the severity manifested to those unfortunate cap tives, whom the chanees of war had thrown upon that unfriendly soil. This princely generosity cost the do nor iinancial ruin ; and necessitated a surrender of his own beautiful home. The real extent of which sacrifice, made in behalf of the sick, the suffer ing and the dying, we can never know until the day of final reckoning. On earth there are tho'usands who can bear testimony; and in heaven multi tudes attest the fact, whose bodies are now re:;ing upon the hill sides of that prison-pen. But the good, old Pro fessor is no more! When shall we look upon his like again? Peace to his ashes,~and honor to his memory. Be it, therefore resolved, that, while w bow in submissive resignation to the will of an All-wise Providence, we reogniz'e and lament in the death of Prof. Wnm. F. Roe, a good samaritan to the poor and forstken; a sincere friend to the sick and the nuferiing; and for ourselves, a whole-soul, warm hearted and generous benefactor, in the days of our deepest distress. Be it, further resolved, that to his atiited and bereaved family, we ten der our heart-selt condolence and sym pathv. IBe it, further resolved, that this me mo i~a be published in thle Williams bug n Clarendlon newspapers ; andl th:t copies of the sa;me he forwarded to the fanily of the deceased. J. E Sc'Yrr,.Seey. Chairman. "Wh s ~n-houl I have such iv hard tie vLe I'm doing the best I can?" ask.ed one. Why, brcause~ yonu are doig" the best von can. That gives ou th e hard time. If it is an easy tie you want. you mu~stn't try to do thec best you can. Doing~ right is al ways.- h"a in this world. You might s weell make up your mind to that. L. D).
