There is a sorghum evaporator going around in the Longtown neighborhood. At last accounts it was on Mr. Jno. E. Robertson's place. A day or so since, a dog, by its barking at a hoiso hitched to a long rack, so frightened him as to causo him to wrench it from its fastenings and pull it down, nearly precipitating it upon a young lady who was passing by. There are too many barking dogs in town. Mr. Thomas Laudordale appeared in court as a party to a suit this term for the first timo in his life. On the stand he testified that he is in his eighty-fifth year, and can read perfectly without the aid of spectacles. He mentioned that he has just completed his hundredth general reading of the Scriptures, w'th which, and with the whole of Scott's ponderous connentaries, he is remarkably conversant. Mr. Lauderdale has been for many years an eldor in the Salom Pre-byterian church, and has attended all the meetings of Presbytery and Synod in this and tho adjoining counties for a long time. Ie enjoys tin unblemiished record for integrit. and is remarkably hale and hearty for one of his years. May he yet long survive. The Circuit Court. The following is a. synopsis of the business done in the circuit court since our last report: In the case of Thomas Lauder dale vs. M. L. Owings, the jury found for the defendant ; and in the case of M. L. Owings vs. Thomas Lauderdale the verdict was for the plaintiff. Robert Hall vs. R. P. Lumpkin and Troy Lumpkin, executors of the last will and testament of Abraham F. Lumpkin, deceased, action to r'ecover money lent by plaintiff to the testator-Jas. H. Rion for p)laintiff, M~cCants & D.ouglass for defendants. This wvas a remarkablo case. The plaintiff, a negro, swore that on the 15th of October, 1874, Mr. A. F. Lumpkin borrowed of him in Columbia four hundred dollars, promising to return the same on the 10th day of April, 1875, with interest at seven per cent. ,por' annum. The plaintiff swore posi. tively to the facts as alleged in his complaint. In proof of his story he submitted the following paper, which he declared was written by Mr. Lumpkin himself : Columbia S C October 15 1874 Mr abe lumkins Borrowd Four' hundred dollars From Mr Robert Hall wvas to Return it april 10 promis to pay Bobert hall seven per Cent on dollar Regular Bank inter est Joames Miller X RiChard WallaCe X IBon Bishop X All three of these witnesses swore positively that Mr. Lumpkin had writtep the paper, and one of them swore he saw Robert Hall hand Mr. Lumpkin tho money. The witnesses for the defence proved that the paper. wn;s not in the handwriting of Mr. Lumnpkin, that he never boVrowedI money w'itout giving a r'egnur no.e, w w>ry carefal in all his businos oiI-rdw and no oncadon to boro from Hall or anyono els at tho time stated, and that on a subso quent day Hall sent to Mr. Lump kin, asking a loan of a few dollars. The juiry found for the defendant. This caso was clearly a"put up job" on the part of Robert Hall, James Miller, Richard Wallace and Bon Bishop, all colored to swindle the estate of Lumpkin out of a few hun, dred dollars. They should all be indicted for perjury and for a con - spiracy to defraud. H. L. Elliott vs. D. W. Tid well, action on scaled note--MoCants & Douglass for plaintiff, Gaillard & Reynolds for defendant. Verdict for defendant. W. R. Doty vs. P. M. Spence, appeal, on the part of the defendant, from the verdict.of a trial justice's jury-A. M. Mackey for plaintiff, Jas H. Rion for defendant. The trial justico's jury had found a ver dict for plaintiff for $67.09. The jury, on the appeal, rendered a vor dict for $30.85. This closed the business for the juries, and they were dischargod, on Thursday afternoon, with the thanks of the presiding judge. The following case on the equity sido of the court was heard by the judge, and decision roserved : Jane M. Sharpe vs. J. Benjamin Cloud, action for plaintiff to enforce payient of a note taken by defen (ant as her trustee and sinco bo. come worthless-McCants & Doug lass for plaintiff, James H. Rion for defendant.
