KENNEDY, Charman. James B. McCants, Esq. James B. McCants, Esq,, died at his remidence in Winisboro on the morn ;ig of the 28th instant. For more than a year he had been sullbring from general prostiration, but death, al though'long looked for, cane unex pee edly at, lst, and as Easter Sunday, Wilich celebrates the trillilph of inl niortalify over nort-lity was just be 'ing ushered in, his spirit, quietly peacefully and almost imperceptibly, burst. its bonds asunder and winged its flight into the boundless realms of Pternity. Thus has passed away one who for many years was a conspicuous actor in tihe legal, political and busi iess circles of Fairfield. Jamcs' B. McCants was born In Fairfield District, South Carolina, on. the ninth lay of August, 1814. lie graduated with distinction at the South Carolina College in the class of 1841, and was admitted to the practice of law ti December, 1841. Very soon after his admission to the bar lie form ed a law partnership with the Hon. Joseph A. Woodward at Winusboro, which was dissolved in the spring of 1848, upon his promotion to the office of Commissionter in Equity for Fair -gld DistrIct. This office he held until Decemnber, 1851,-when he'volua tarily retired f1on it, and devoted him self to the Practice of his profession - - up to the time of his late illuess. He was elected in October, 1858, one of the epreseitatives to the Legislature frotn.this District, and by continuous successive re-qlcetions remained such Ropresenitativeuintii .shertly aftQr the t1d' of Sherman's army through this - - tatd.

The defeat of this ticket -was * convincing evidence that the colored Ephraim was "Joined to his idols." * Mr. McCants .retired from politics. His last political speech was for - Hampton and Reform in the stirring days of '76. As a lawyer, Mr. McCants' career was marked with gratify'ing success. - To a naturally strong, vigorous and welibalancedl mnind hie added the lucyt bru.:zio-viginti annoruem-the study of years. B3esides grasping the princi ples involved in the issue, he man -aged his cas'e wVell in the court-house, * . . ;and:hy thme flaculty he possessed of * .~, reading human nature, of detecting the ilb1es,'the prejucides, the bent of .mind of men, lhe rarely blundered in the selection of his jury in eases of mioent. For- several years pafst he was the senior'mnember of the law firm of McCants & Douglass, of this place. Asia conversdtionalist, when in his * . *. prime,.Mr. M~cCtnits had few superi ore. He had an ample find of in foi'mation from which to draw, and - whens disposed he enlivened his talk * with dashes of native wit and humor. H le had:. a wvarm heart. Whether to *propositions of public improvement or -to th3:prlvate"appeals - of charity, hn tfinied no'ddaf ear, and many a ,poor man and poor woman were relieved in trouble through his- bounty. He took a lively interest in educational matters, and wvas'for years a zealous *member and.an efficient president of the Mount Zion Society.
