We chronicle with regret the death of
William F. Matthews, Eeq., who de-
parted this life at his residence near Wil*
baton on the 1st instant.
Mr. Matthews was born in Edgefield
District on tlia 6th day of November,
1802; removed to Barnwell District in
182G; married there, -and for the re
aaainder of his long and useful lUe re
mained a citizen of oar county.
Ha possessed is an eminent degree all
-those qualities that adorn the character
-of a Christian gentleman. His ‘house
was the home of his friends, his hand
was ever ready to minister to the neces
sities of the poor and distressed ; and al
though his elegant residence was destroy
ed and his cosafertable fortune swept
away iu the storm of war, he retained to
the last a genial contentment and a happy
adaptation to our changed fortunes, re
cognising the hand of a loving heavenly
Father in all his afflictions. Hardly
three years have passed since he followed
to the grave the body of his wife, who
had shared with him the joys and ills
of many years. He was a consistent
and honored member of the Baptist
church, and, surrounded by loving rela
tives in his last hours, be illustrated the
power of that faith in Christ which had
easTA halo of sanctity arcramHMs life,
leaving to nearly sixty lineal descendants
the blessed assurance that he l^s only
been translated from the church militant
to the church triumphant.

.1 u«ly <' Dlaekey Agaifc.
In referring to the apparently final re
port of the Joint Investigating Commit
tee on Public Frauds, the Netci and
Courier refers to his Honor Judge
Mackey in the foHowing teims:
“Judge Maokey is also 'underfire. 1
In his testimony he assort* that F.
B. Lloyd, bis brother-in-laW, was an
agent for persons inaking claims under
the Ku-Klux proclamation; that the
bill appropriatiog $35,000 ' received a
very general support in both houses
from menibera ofboth political parties,
it being understood frotq MaJ. Merrill
that htf'lntended to use hla Influence,
Which was very potent a;t Washington,
to prevent further prosecutions or ar
rests for this cause. Lloyd Informed
Mackey that Merrill was to aq#lgn him
(Lloyd) $5,000 of'the amount awarded
him, and requested Mackey to obtain
a written assignment, which ho did.
Mackey obtained, as requested, one
order for $3,000, and one for $2,000.
Mackey says: 'Mr Lloyd arrived In
Columbia on the day the orders - were
paid, or the day after, having beea ab-
sent but a few hours, ndt more than a
day, and endorsed the tw<* orders.
The one for $2,000 I had cashed at a
dtscouUt of 10 per cent., and delivered
the proceeds to him, he paying me
the sum of $300 for Ms beard, as he
resided with me. T gave him the or-
der for $3,000, and do ndt know what
dlsposlt'on he made of it. A reference
to the journals of the General Assem
bly will show that no man challenged
the claim for the rewards stated ns In
anywise Illegal or Improper. Mackey
asserts that the only part he bore In
reference*lo the passage pf the bill
was to express the opinion that the
proclamation of the Governor bound
the State, if the required services were
rendered by fho ohilmants; and that
Loyd told him that he was assigned
the $5,000 for aiding In the passage of
the bill, and to prevent opposition on
the part of some other claimants. This
Is not a pleasant position to be bald
by one who sits on the Circuit bench,
Ap tbe choice of the Democratic party*
Moses Is nat an unexceptional witness,
by any means, but Judge Mackey ad
mits that he was concerned in the Ku-
Klux reward business, and that the
money to be given Lloyd was In pay
ment of services as a lobblst, or in
some other equally unsavory occupa
tion. 1 *
We fear that, in view of these unex
pected revelations, wo will be forced
to recall those highly colored encomi
ums which we haveKeretofore bestow
ed upon this distinguished gentleman.
The Bur»well F»lr.
We are indebted to Dr. J. 8. Stomey
lot a copy of the premium list of the
Fair, which is to be held at Itiniwell on
the 30th and 31st October and the lat
November. I-
Intelligent and progressive agricul
ture is the only sure foundation of gene
ral prosperity. Experiment Is profita
ble, but comparison is equally so, and
the attrition of mind is always beneficial
in its brightening and energizing effects.
While this century is peculiarly the era
•f association^ and every calling has its
organization for the protection and en-
«ouragement of its members, bat little I
attention has been given to so important
« means of improvement by plantar* and
mechanics. In the age in which we live
our Fairs should be annual reunions of
eer farmers and artisans; schools iu
wiridhalfarc teachers and pupils; mile
stones that mark the march of progress.
We understand that it is proposed to
Lave during the Fair a grand mass meot-l
ing of the red riders and fair women of
thaeounty. Distinguished speakers are
and duo notice will doubtless
• ,'Vj.ay jfc . -
We venture to priKct, however, that
many visitors will attend the Fair who
»«, after an examination of the exhibi-
declarc truly that the products of
earn shops and farms were superior
bore away the premiums.
Our Cowniy Ticket.
It gives us great pleasure to record the
general sitisfaction expressed throughout
our county with the nominations made
on the 1st instant. We do not think,
from what we hear, that a happier selec
tion could have been made. Close up
the Democratic ranks. Let us renew
the elbow touch.” Work for Hamp
ton and Home llulc for twenty six days
and our redemption is complete.
A Flying Trip to Columbia.
Wo spent Wednesday of last week in

W. M. Brabham, in secret convention on
la«t Friday night. Wq give the rumor

the Republican party to dictate the po

piece of arrogance that will not be

dressed to him by us, will be read with

vance tobacco to their laborers :
U. 8.1 ktkbhax Revenue,
- Collectok’s Office, Dist.
COLDitniA, October,
J. W. Holmes, Esq.:
Sib . Replying to your inquiry, I
have to atate that a farmer or planter
who simply supplies Ms employes with
wlmt maou acturod tobacco they need
for their own personal use, and for
ttieFr epeclal accommodation, and not
with a view to gain or profit to himself.
Is not regarded as engaged in the busi
ness of gelling manufactured tobacco,
and would not be required to pay spe
cial tax for thus supplying’ fits hired
laborers with tobacco.
A farmer or planter who, solely for
the accommodation of his laborers,
as above stated, not with a view of
gain or profit to himself, even though
he Charges a price for the tobacco In
advance of what he pays by the box
sufficient ta make himself entirely
whole; that Is, to reimburse himself
for silch loss, cost and expense as he
may necessarily Incur, la cot held to be
liable to pay for the special tax.

IButtz Turns I p Agnfn.
Ex-Solkltor C. W. Buttz arrived yes'
tet day on the steamer City of Atlanta
He wants to represent Charleston In
Congress. To a reporter who asked
him about bis political aspirations, he
said :
I don’t Exactly know just yet wheth
er I will be a candidate for Congress
before the Republican convention or
not. It will depend entirely upon cir
cumstances. You See Mackey and
Taft have the inside track on me.
Bowen promised mo before 1 left here
that if fhe race was between me and
Taft be would keep his hands off. But
you know I was away and was kept
away by sieknuss, and since I have re
turned I ffind that Bowen has gone
back on me and is now advocating the
claims of Taft.
Do you think you could tun in be
tween Mackey and Taft ?
I don't know. A canvass for Con
gress In this district would cost me
about a thousand dollars, and I don’t
like to take the chances. There are
three chances against me even if I get
the nomination, and I don’t like to
take them. Still, if I see any prospect
I will enter the contest before the con
vention.
Suppose you get the Republican
nomination, have you any idea that
you will win ? /
Buttz replied with a. ghas'ly smile
It’s tight papers, I admit, hut still
atnwilling to take the chances. I boat
Mack'ey for Congress once, but was
counted out. So you see I am used to
being counted dut.
From all the indications it appears
that there will be a triangular Repub
