o'clock on Monday, Judge James Aid-

Ail tbe Court officefs were at their pla
ces except Cot. Sawyer, 4 ho had been
unwell and delayed coming until Mon
day night.
Fifteen Grand Jurors answered to
their names, and Capt. J. M. Gray, of
Allendale, wa# elected Foreman, and
no better' selection could have been
made. We give below as ftlll an ab
stract as possible of U Is Honor's ftharge
to the Grand Jury !
Cuaaox to Tfti Grind Jury.
Gentlemen of the Grand Jury: The
Grand Jury is an old Institution, at) In-
etrument of law, provided by our foie^
fathers for the government of the coun
try and hat great powers.
Bafore explaining your duties I ad
vise you to read your oath, which in
telligently guards ail the interests of
tbe country, for, disguise it as you may,
the Grand Jury is the corner stone of
the government—the key stone of our
, udicial syetem Wherever Its rule of
action prefalls there {is law and order,
civilizatiou. but if It is let go there foi-
ow woes unnumbered and we descend
nto the lagoons and morasses of bar
barism. It used to be the case when a
map committed a crime be was as sure
to be convicted a* the sun rose: Jurors
followed the law and the evidence, and
it ought to be so now. I read In tbe pa
pers that the other day a man on trial
for burglary was found not guilty,and
the Judge was so much disgusted that
he asked the clerk for the prisoner’s
tools and bad them delivered to him.
saying i "PrDori&r, tfie Jury hasaald
that you are licensed to commit crime,
take your tools and go at ft.” When
punishment is ce. taln to follow crime,
-crime will disappear, but the uncer
tainty of punishment leads to crime.
You represent the country ahd have
great power. Ust it.as a good man and
not as a tyrant. The bfest guide for ycu
fsyotiroath. You are tokeep the Staite’s
secrets and your own, because if you
do not the criminal is put on his guan’.
Your duties are long and varied. You
are to look after the roads, bridges and
ditches; it it the tax payers’ money
that is used on them. Wherever you
find a default of duty give tbe name of
the offender and of tbe witnesses to
the Solicitor. Tbe law extends your
supervision to almost every subject—
the school teachers, school trustees, Ac.
Wherever the public money goes you
can go and are not bound to govern
yourselves By reports, but may go be
hind the papers. You are to examine
into all violations of law In the way of
houses of ill fame, drinking saloons,
bawdy houses, gambling dens, disturb
ances of religious worship, cases of per
sons living together In illicit inter
course, failure to perform the duties re
qnired of him by any officer, Ac. You
should also inquire into the obaervance
of tbe D'ispensary la#. Dispensers sre
lisble to Indictment if they sell liquors
to minors or hsblttfal drunkards, or oth
erwise than provided bv law. You
should see thst the unfortunate In
mates of tbe Poor House sre properly
provided with woofl, food end bedding.
This isanorgsnlsed chsrtty snd should
not be extended to tbone whose near rel
atives are of sufficient anility to provide
for them. Public charity should not be
abused. Tbe •ail and prisoners are
proper subjects of your attention*
All taxes collected for County pur
poses are payable by tM Treasurer on
tbe order of the Supervisor, but he can
not spend a nickel of this money ex
cept by authority of law. Whero the
price of publie work Is above ten dol
lars It must Le let to the lowest bidder
on contract. You should see that there
are no abuses suffered through care
lessness or neglig< ih «> Hold every one
up to his full duty. Although tho law
presumes thst every officer doe* his du
ty, tbe Grand Jury Is the only machin
ery provided for bringing up derelic
tions and defanlu, and you can go be
hind tbe papers whenever necessary in
aeeeratntng those things. Tho law Is
tbe master of us all. The Solicitor will
give you sny aid in his power.
The rest of tbe charge was devoted to
the specific offence* embraced 10 bills
of indictment, etc.
Eleven cases were on the docket,
brought forward from previous terms.
Tbe Grand Jury has up to the clos
ing of out report returned the follow

Murphy, keeper of an East Bay res
taurant, guilty of keeping a common
nuisance, accordihe to the terms of the
dlsjtehsary law. - \
A notice of appeal was given by
oo(in!el for Murphy. When the court
opened Judge Benet gave notice that in
justice to the jurors themselves snd io
the State each of the Jurors before tap

on his voir dire, with regard to tbe dis-
ponaary lahr; that la to Kay, that each
juror (mould have to affirm that hU
prejudice to tho law and the manner of
its enforcement, was not such as to pre
vent him from bringing In a verdict of
guilty.
A great deal of trouble reunited ih
making up if panel. Juror after Juror
was examined snd each said he was op
posed to tbs la#. . Many bf them were
excused. Those who finally weie al
lowed to serve were nearly all opposed
to the law, but said they were confident
that their opposition was not such as
to prevent them from bringing a ver

REMEDIES FOR HOG CHOLERA^
We bare recently published several
remedies for hog cholera, and bolievlng
that all known remedies should be dis
seminated. we take tbe following from
the Rock Hill Herald:
Mr. J. B. Rawls recommends tbe use
of poke rpot tea In connection with corn
meal, mixed to the consistency of gruel
for hpg cholera. He feels sure all who
try this remedyT feeding on ft three
times a dsy, will lose no more hogs. A
few years ago he lost three from the
to ft
he bad no
dlsease,!when he began to j^lve the jjoke
rodt tea and meal, and he had no fur
