the cold, wo should thank God that

Thoii lands are not only deluged,
with no hope of planting for per

and cattle anil faun equipments
liave lieeti swept away by the Hood,
cities and towns are threatened
with the appalling calumity of in

Mr. Thurmond Will Not Serve
n? Solicitor Until After His
Trial.
Solicitor Thurmond has giyen
the following statement to the
press :
'*l>eing a prosecuting olllccr, tin
discharge of tho duties of the ollice
might become embarrassiug to me,
pending the decision of my coun
trymen on the charge to be preferr
ed on account of the recent de
plorablo occurrence at Kdgeliold.
llence, I deemed it my duty to ad
vise with the Governor and Attor
ney General as to tho course t<,
pursue relative to my duties as So
licitor,
'fii ere is no impediment in tho
law to the performance of said du
ties by me, but a sense of proprie
ty dictated that 1 ?sk the presid
ing Judge at each term of court to
appoint a Solicitor pro tern., to bo
compensated l?y me out of my snl
ary ; and, after consultation with
the Governor and Attorney Gener
al, they agreed fully with we.
While I regret sorely said unfortu
nate occurrence, I feel perfectly
justified, before God and man, in
what I did, and do not believe that
I will be blamed in the leftst, when
the facts are knotvn.
I will sec that; the inteiests of
the State uo not sutler, but I will
not conduct prosecutions until mv
case u determined."
