Fierce allow us to call yo ir attention to, and with no ?mall feeling of pride, re quest your careful perusal of the follow ing: A CARD. To ike Tax-payers and Conservative Citizens Of Orangebntg Ceff?ft': The undersigned, without any solicita tion on the part of the Editor and Pro prietor of the Orangeburg Times, deem it our duty to urge fn'c' claims of this paper en the citizens of the County. It is passing strange, that men who are being robbed daily, should ignore tho claims of this Journal, and continue their support of another paper, conducted in the interest of those who are robbing them, and whoso pages are filled with abuse of themselves and all that they fcoid dedf^girlifg ifef cold shoulder to this paper"; whose sole object is to advance their interests ? And' yet such is the case! ^ It i?, pefhn1^?, hot generally known, that littley if any, of the public printing (which ' is a County paper's chief support!) is given to it, and hence its claims upon you ia all the greater on that account. Farmers, subscribe to tho Times ! Merchants, advertise in this paper!! Be assured that its career is anxiously watched by the party iu power, .*.nd that fts success or failure will be a sure index of the feeling of our people/ Let this paper fail, and no other proof Trill be needed, that we do not care to be , freed from the vultures who are gnawing at our very vitals 1 Is it right ? Is it manly; to complain of the yoke, under which' V.'6 are suffering, and" Aot'^aine a hati'd in our own behalf? LSu'ppbrt, then, the only organ of the Conservative party in the County, and thereby aid yourselves! Wo desire, in conclusion, to recom mend to your confidence the present Editor and Proprietor?we believe that 3 otir interests can safely be intrusted to his hands 1 (fcfigriW1) ' Paul 8.

To the night1 rs of the above, well-known gentlemen of the County, I would public ly fctllVll thanks and a promise, that I ?hall ondenvur always to deserve thin their most handsome endorsement. When I think bow short is the time since I first camo among yotVj Unknown, ami turn to your kind "well done" so delicately elt pretfledj- pardon ihe if a warmer feeling than tho gratitCide. to lie conveyed b/ more avoids, touch a deeper chord than is often stirred in a young man away from home, nod tattoo donnV.i? tender* ncsa to draw forth tho softe** feelings of my nature.

Respectfully, James S. IIuvward! tli? Klettfotf; * - ' Last "vVednesday passed off very quiet1* ly throughout thcF'whole' Comity'; and We pitted the result l>efore yon clbC'whero in our columns. Now that tho ctirit'&j Is over, we sincerely hope that the success ful parties will teffilfc ttii> universal want of the State as well as tho wihits of the County, and the peculiar necessities of their constituents It is with no partisan feelings that We deplore the rate at it filch subornation und fobWery Itufrt been allow ed to pervade life offices ihl'otighotit the State; by the c'ft'cfion of' on principled men to official position; Tffe Republicans havo pledged them selves" fiefore the peoplo of tho Slate, to work off the dark stain from their past fckdfui The Democrats have hardly participated at all in the election, and the result is in verity a purely Republican Work. Wo ask in tho namo of truth and honesty that a new system of legislation be inaugurated, and that the Republican pledge be kept. Tjet the men going hence carry witfi them the fJoif's speed of us all in the work of redemption. Let them together with those elected for County positions; without partisan feeling df Cdlttr or pelf7 tical party, work with tiff off sirVffle to the public weal. The rcsu'.t has been, that Iflff. Boliver polled the largest number of polls among all the candidates. C:\th bent Hi ggs. Cain comes 'iiticf this important office of ?Sheriff of our CotitYt^, iiot very highly r^coWmetfdct! fry tfle recent gTAnd jury; but there is no reason why with judicious and honest administration, he shall not prove a satisfactory official to all parties. The total vote was 4,680, of which 1, 236 were white. The colored vote prob ably came out to its full extent between Byas and Jamison, tOfti ^fts 3,444. The white Vote was not a* ftuf one, as we cer tainly can poll 2,000' v^tes. Tlltf COUNT* PA1B. We place before outf f^tfdew a full programme 6f our County' i?dtr which open's iVnder very encouraging auspices, thanks to the efiorts of an efficient execu tive committee. We feel that we cannot say too much in urging upon our readers the vital importance of lending their presence and all tho aid they can to making 6tfr Fair a* success. It is the one occasion of the year that offers an oppor tunity for every farmer to meet his fel low farmers and lcaru directly how each section' of tho county progresses. What each one brings aVfda ttf lilo general in- | tcrc3t anil the pleasure that you afford to the visiton from other counties. We believe that the farmers and their friends are fully aroused to the importance of the Fair as an Institution. Let even hefty else dj their duty. Come one and all an'3 dcVotc one holiday to your fellow citizens. We etVn pfomise you a hearty welcome and pTeiVty of enjoyment. We are requested to correct an errone ous impression which has gained public circulation, that exhibitors tit the Orangc burg County Fair will have to pay a fee beforo being allowed to exhibit their ar ticles. This is not at all so. On the contrary exhibitors dri'ii enter their ar ticled fVce of charge, and Will bo furnished a season ticket, which admits in and out throughout the Fair, at the reduced rate of 75 cents. --- There was quite a little'excitement just around the Post Oflico last Friday even ing, caused by tho violent abuse of the Post Master by a colored woninn. Mr. DeMars had her summoned before Trial Justice Brow ning, intending to take out a peace warrant. He, however, de termined to adopt some other course and speaking to the woman to that effect, mentioned incidentally the name of his Wife; whom tho colored woman immedi ately ?TPfhled t.) in itff ftbusiffffrtnguago. ibelCfti^ fold his temper aiufstfrfcd by the back a chair which,' however*,'all prescut testify, ho did id' nrV way ndlkc use of.

The Catholic Register has the follow'* ing: "It is now no longer a secret that, already many iffqiftm? figW, thVstiitrtfy and devoted Bishop Persico, of Savannah, en treated the Uoly Father to relieve him of the charge of the Diocese of Susan nah, Ga. The mnhuly that repeatedly threatened Ids life, while a Vicar Apos tolic in the East Indies, still affects bun in any hot climate. And his Episcopal solicitude will not permit him to take rest while charged with the oversight of a wido and growing Diocese. It is with deep sorrow we learn that Bishop Per sico is to leave the United State-*. A Me- 1 trapolitnn, elsewhere, has most cerdlnlly invited him to a Prelate position of great importance and of delicate rosponsibilit", where his Apostolic zeal w ill havo an abundant and fruitful field for its exer tion. "The Diocese if Savannah, meo'A'vhile is not left unprovided. Iftn joyful as the news will be to the Catholic clergy and people of Georgia, it is better to leave it to rumor till the determination of the Holy Fi-thcr is authentically known." Rights of the llnnkruut. Registrar W. I. Clawson, of Yorkville, has issued the following .explanation of the rights of the bankrupt, which applies generally : As doubts have been expressed ns to the extent of the relief tffluYWed by the Bankrupt Act of 1807, and the secern] amendments thereto, I deem it proper to make the following statement: The amendment to '.he Act, approved 10th June, 1872, nllo\vs :o the bankrupt all the property cxcmpttV by the Mws of each State of force in 1871, in addition to the five hundred dollars worth of pro perty allowed under the original Act. This gives to cit'ch bankrupt, in this State, two thousand dollars worth of pro perty, to wit: One thousand dollars worth of real estate, and one thousand dollars worth of personal estate. After the bankrupt hits been discharged this pro perty becomes his absolute estate to dis pose of as he chooses, cither by sale, gilt, devise, or otherwise. It is not necessary/ as has bee*>' sup posed, that the estate of the person apply iny idiall p.iy fifty per cent, of all his debts; but if the estate which comes to the hands of five assignee is sufficient to pay fifty fvf cent, of lift" fntttvidual debus contracted since 1st JuuuiVry, ?8(>9, ex clusive of the debts contracted before that time, he is entitled to a full (hVcttnrgo from nil his debts. If it is not sitTwicnt still he is discharged from all individual I dub is contracted before tluu time, end ' from all security debts, whether contract ed before or after that time, leaving noth ing to ho paid but his individual debts I contracted after 1st January, I860.

Ex Guerilla Chief Mosby, (says the Washington Patriot;) h'?? been for some time f?llst Cofispictious for his ardent sup port of General Grant. Whether this support is entirely disinterested or not is yet to l>e seen. "Colonel'' Mosby is the agent and business manager, and, we be. Iiovc, part proprietor in a marble quarr)-, located on the left bank of the Potomnc, in the Stflfe* wf Maryland; and iu that ca pacity he is about yto send in a bid for furnishing headstones to the National Cemeteries. Curious that the ex-guerilla should think of furnishing grave stones, ais be once did graves, for our dead sol diers ! Wc fifostlnic, hrrttever, that he will have a fair chance of getting' Ills bid through; for his services "to the Grant cause will require remuneration, and this is probably the cheapest way of ?'fixing" his proceedings in this case, and sec if to him really the contract shall be awarded in consideration of recent services. The S punish Insurrection. Mai ft i), October 10. The municipal authorities nt Firrel yesterday, requested the commander of the government forces to suspend making his attack on the insurrectionists, wdio arc concentrated in the. arsenal, as ne gotiations for their surrender were in pro gress. The commander consented to wait until afternoon, when/ if the insurgents had not surrendered, he would attack them. The (Sovernuienfx lit iin.it urn. Mannip, October 10. A later dispatch from Ferro!, forward ed from that city yesterday, says that the frigate Victoria was hourly expected in the harbor and that preparations were being made for an attack upon the insur rectionists by the commander of the land and sea forces. Hostilities were to com mence at four o'clock, yesterday, P. M., if the relxde had not surrendered. The Richmond Dispatch denounces with great severity the destruction of the Sentinel: T!Ve Sentinel is not des troyed?only suspended for two weeks, ft will make its appearance again ns soon as a new press eon be purchased.?[Ra leigh News. The recent canvass 1ms brought out as leaders of the opposite factions two human beings, of kinds supposed hitherto not to exist; viz, n carpet bagger who has not been caught stealing, and a native who is so notoriously corrupt as to be able to control the colored vote. This is the political question which South Carolina has decided: which would you rath?r'or a Radical ? Have you never heard anything like it f We would ratllcr go a' fishing anytime. Why is Tomlinson like electricity . He came light like (in baggage), bolted, kicked up a dust, and burnt every bv/ v fingers that touched him. What would you prefer to Moses. Honestly j? would his profits. POSTAGE. The following it; a nummary of the laws concerning newspaper postage just issued to postmasters : Sec. 138. f hat no ncwspa*>cr shall ho received to be oohVeyod hy mail unless they shall be dried and enclosed in prop er wrappers. Sec. 139. That when packages of newfc papers pr other permdicals are received at a postofiico directed to one address, and the name of tho subscribers to whom they ng, with the postage for quarter m advance is handed to the postmaster, he shall deliver such papers or periodicals to their respective owners. Sec. 140. The postmasters shall notify the publisher of any newspaper of other l>criodical when any subscriber shall re? fuse to take the same {from the office, or neglect to call for it. for the period of bh month, ' " - ' Sec. That the publishers ofj news* papers or periodicals may print or write upon their publications, scut to regular subscribers, tho address of the* subscri ber and tho date when the tubscription expires, and enclose therein bills and re ceipts for subscription thereto without subjecting such matter to extra postage/ Sec. 142? That any persou who" shall enclose or conceal any letter, memoran dum, or other thing iu any mail matter not charged with letter postsgo, or make any writing or memorandum thereof), and deposit or erttffc the same to be deposited for conveyance try mail, for less than let ter postage, shall, for every such offence forfeit and pay five dollars, and such newspaper or periodical shall not be de livcred until the postago thereon is paid at letter rates. Sue. That on ncwmap3r and peri odical publications, not exceeding four ounces in weight, sent from n known office of publication to regular subscri bers, postage shall be charged at the fid lowing flttcrf per quarter, namely:?j On. publications issued les*. frequently than once a week, fit the rate of 1 cent for each'isstie ; issued once a week .1 cents additional "or each issue more frequent than once a week. An additional rate shall be charged for each additional font ounces cr fraction thereof in weight. Sec. 159, That on newspapers and other periodicals sent from a known office of publication to regular subscribers, the postage shall bo paid before delivery, not less than one-quarter nor more than one year; which payment may bo made cither at the office of mailing or delivery com mencing at any time, and the postmaster shall account for said postage in the quar ter iu which it was received. Sec. 160. That the Postmaster Gene ml irirty provide,, hy regulations for car-' rytng small nettjpapcni, issued less .fre quently than once a week, in package* to one address from a known office or publication to regular subscribers, at the rate of one cent for each four ounces, or portion thcrcoft Sec. 161. That persons known as re gular dealers in newspapers and periodi cals may receive and transmit by mail such quantities of either as they may require, and pay the postage thereon as received at the same rates pro rata as re gular subscribers to stich publication who ! pay quarterly in advance. The continual changes in the portal laws of the co-vHtry require persons to keep continually oft the qui vive, or clso to ruq the risk of having their Torres- j pondfthce quietly dumped into the dead letter oflico. Under the old law the rate n-f pbfctagc 1 for mail matter was three cents per half ounce for letters, and the regulation pro vided that in case the requisite number of stamps to pay tho full poslngo Was not attached to rt defter, the postmaster at the place of destination was required to collect the remainder. For instance, if a letter which weighed one ounco only had a three ccrtf sYn'rnfp attached, it Went to its destination and the remaining three cents duo upon it was collected thefc. Tbc law in this respect has been materi ally changed. Under a dtolfcfan of tho Post Oflico authorities' postmasters arc i required to eolrfcct- double the amount which remains unpaid. Double postage must of courso be collected on wholly Mrfpfiid matter which may by chance reach the office of destination. This is* under the new od e, Section 152. I jet* tcr writers and business men wilt avoid n\(ic\\ confusion in fdttiro by .ncrtrmg in mind the new law oil the subject.
