It was after 10 o'clock be fore court was called, but when the work began it was rushed to Wed nesday afternoon, when court was adjourned to Monday next. The petit jurors, we believe, were indeed glad to get back home so early. The Grand Jury finished up their work for thc term on Tuesday after noon, made a short report, (which will appear next week) and were discharged. Quite a number of cases were continued. The strong purpose of Solicitor Johnson was to relieve tho jail. The following cases were disposed of this week' : Emory Melvin, wus tried and found guilty of larceny, and given 30 days on tho chniu gang. Doc O'Hara plead guilty to violas ting the Dispensary law, and given a liue of S?0, which ho paid. Wm.

'i; The District Conference is now a thing of the past Large crowds at tended every service. Wo had some splendid preaching and everybody speaks ia praise of the way Conference was managed by those in control. I am sorry that I am unable to giro a full report of the meeting, as I was not in a position to attend regularly, ?so, will leave it to a mora compe tent scribe, but, one thing I will say ?and that ia this, for neatly dressed and handsome ladies, none can surpass ibis meeting. Their name waa Legion and they came from all points of the cc rupaaa. I had the pteasure to-day of taking dinner at the hospitable home of Mr. Jno A Calhoun, and this is indeed u home of milk and honey. Mr. Calhoun ia our Trial Justice at this place and is a terror to evil doers. He has turn 1 ed the Farm over to his son John, while he devotes his spare time to Dee culture. He has ono hundred and fifi teen Hives that will turn him out a large amount of honey this spring, md these, coupled with fine Jersey Miloh Cows, verifies the assertion that this home fiowB with milk and honey. The milk of human kindness pre dominating in turning over the farm to his son, Mr. Calhoun made no error, as John is up to the times on farming. He uses nothing hut the best farming implements and runs a four horse farm with only tw?'labor* ors, He has only one plow on bis place that tho plowman has to walk behind, and that is a corn planter. The rest is done by riding cultivators and harrrows. But, the thing that at tracted my attention waa his fine herd of Berkshire Hogs, and it would pay any farmer in the county to go and seo for himself what John Calhoun is doing in the way of improved Berk shire Hogs. The first hog that he bought was from the president of the Berkshire Record Association, which was a male and coBt him one hundred and twenty-five dollars. He has now a half-brother of this hog that is only five moutbB that will easily weigh one hund? ed and sixty pounds, and just a short time since a half-brother uf this one sold in Chicago for five hundred dollars. He has now on hand se /en brood sows from eighteen months to two years old that will weigh from 6 VP. to six hundred pounds each, while any pig in his herd six to eight weeks old will weigh from fifty to sixty pounds. He has just received a letter from Tenueesee, a hog growing state, from a party who wants to get some of his fine hogB. Ho has sold right lately three hundred dollars worth of pigs, but ouly had to sell thirty to do that. These dre facts and the hogs are there to prove it. Mr. Calhoun is a young man just a little past his major ity but a long ways past anything in the State in the way of fine Registered Berkshire Hogs. This is not intended as an advertise-? ment, as he can't supply the demand for hogs anyway. I just write this to let the ferny: rs of t larlboro know thal rtght at their doors i; .: M?ncyi li thej will take the th ttl :.r'ii trouble to ,\>.i in th<: swim with '-Jr. 0dhouri. l here is a lot more to'be. ??id auout du:-:..- things dial i willi s?y.

According to announcement in your valued paper the good people of Red Bluff met on Friday last to weed off Red Hlu?T cemetery and place flowers upon the graves ot their loved ones. Over ali that part of the cemetery where there are graves it was well weed ed, raked and swept. There were quite a prolusion ol flowers and many graves were decorated. Why not appoint a day in the spring of each year and let lt be known as "Me morial Day," and decorate each grave in this large cemetery ? Dinner was spead in family groups and at one of these tables your scribe did lull justice to the viands prepared by his friends. As I looked over this meeting of these thrifty Urmers, their wives, sons, daugh ters and sweethearts, I beheld the hope ol our state and our nation. Plain, hard working, honest,* truly good people, they are the salt ol the earth. The most ol them have scotch blood in their veins and I teel they are my kinsmen. Rev. A. B? Watson of Bennettsville M E. church filled the Baptist pulpit ol Clio on last Sunday morning at II o clock. He preached lrom the text "To live is Christ," and his sermon was thoughtful instructive, plain and practical. Every person who attended Sunday school, to the smallest child, remained for preach ing and these children, as well as the grown people, will remember much he said all their lives. Many ot us had never seen Bro. Watson before but were pleased at his appearance as soon as our eyes rested upon him, and as he stood before us we could see the kind heart behind his kindly beaming good lace. No wonder he is called the "childrens" friend" and that they go trooping alter him wherever he goes. As olten as Bro Watson can visit us the doors ot the baptist church at Clio will be thrown wide open to him. The people ol Bcrea church were much disappointed that Rev Mr. Beivin could not be present and lill his appoint ment there last Sunday morning. The Presiding Elder of this district, Rev. E. 1'. Taylor, will preach next Sun day alternoon at 4 o'clock at Berea ch. I don't hear so much about the rav ages ol lice on the small grain crops, and I think more oats will be made than we once thought.
