Ou.FruUy mornio*, jast m na- tan began to wake from ite night ly steep and pat on orighter hues, there passed from oat amongst us from this dark land of paiu to the brighter world beyond, the spirit of our well beloved and honored eitiaen, Jna Woods. With our 0 jlj—— )8 left the memory of his VO rk and seal for the benefit of the town, his good example set by cIwm and steady application to the j lrnrg. de|*Mri in n great degree oer ma terial welfare for the year. L«t every one then lay aside personal prejudice and work for the com mon good of all. The Congression Directory of the 49th Congress compiled for the use of Congress by the veteran journal- ist and clerk to the joint committee on printing, Major Ben Perley Poore, will contain the following sketch: SIXTH DISTBICT. “Comities—Clarendon, Darling ton.

He is also a member of the committee in charge of the expeuditnrea in the interior depaatment. work before him, his correct bear ing as a man and bis just »nd honorable dealing In mercantile life. To our town he will be a sad loss as a dtUeo, to the county Defnodrscy as local “oonwuttee of Ten” in tbe Darlington dab, to bis oburob as an earnest worker and liberal con tributor, to the mercantile Interests as bn honorable competitor, and to (be state as a good eitiaen. In bia fettUy circle as son, brother, has band and father, the loss is truly 'sa£, bdt their sorrow is their own. Ln us not intrude into this sacred circle, except to extend our deepest sympathies, aud by such means as we poor mortals can, lighten their sorrows. Jno. Woods was bornjiu Darling ton Feb. 10,1849, and went to school at St. John’s Academy# lu Feb. 1865 when just about 16 years old he Joined Charles* Battery on its march ' to North ■ Carolina, on tbe retreat from tbe coast, and served with it until the dose of tbe war. He afterwards'pursued bis studies at W offord College, married Miss. Moore of Spartanburg in 1870, and hs 1872 passed bis examination as attorney at law. At tbe time of J h death he was partner in the nn of S. A. Woods k Son, one of the staunchest and largest mereau tile firms in Darlington. Not na * tnratly of strong constitution, his health often was a check to tbe ao eompliahiuent of that amount of work towards which bis iudomi table energy led him, yet in public or private duties be never failed. To his enthusiasm was in a great measure owing tbe success of tbe movement wbicb'iled to the build tng ot the Darlington'Factory. In tbe political campaigns since 1876, as a member of the “committee of teir he was ever an earnest worker and wise counselor as especially shown in the registration work in 1880! He was an active and work ing member in the Knights of Pytbias, Knights of Honor and Aiuerieau Legion of Honor, aud bad filled tbe highest offices in each of these orders, and serving at different periods on the Town Ouupcil was at tbe time of bis death Ailing tbe office of Mayor, lu . December list be was^confined to his bed and after weeks of incred ible suffering, borne with tbe brave ry of a man acd tbe reaigm: tion of a Christian, he died. On Saturday the Inst sad tokens of respect were paid. Bis body was followed to its resting place by the members of tbe K. of P., K. of 11. aud A. L. of H. tbe Young America F. E. Co., and a large number of citixens to tbe Methodiet Church and then to the cemetery. May the good ex ample set us of an earnest life, a brave and Christian death long live in oar memoriea to urge us onward and upward. “George W. Dargan, of Darling ton, was born in Darlington Coun ty, & nth Carolina, in 1841; educa ted at tbe academies of his native county, and at the State Military Academy; was admitted to the Bar The Newt and Courier of Jan. 1 contained a careful and elaborate exhibit of the advancement made by tbe people of South Carolina in tbe last five years in agriculture manufactures sod general trade In concluding an editorial on the result, that journal says: “To recapitulate. Witbiu five years tbe people of tbe Btate of South Carolina have increased tbe Talue of their real aud personal property by 125,100,000. They have increased tbe value of their manulaolored products $21,600,000 They have increased the value of their agricultural productions $8, 600,000. Tbey have increased the value of the live stock'$9,000,000, Tbey have increased tbe-va'ueof the agricultural machinery $1,400, 000. They have expended $2,000, 000 in the construction of railroads. And the grand aggregate is that, in these five short years, the people, jy their own efforts and almost unaided, by their own energy and ntelligence, have added $68,300,- M)0 to tbe total wealth of the Com monwealth of South Carolina. la not this a grand story, an in spiring tale of success plucked from the very teeth of doubt ami cnltjl It should encourage people, one and all, their labors, Bsstslea.

The following points are decid ed by the Supreme Conrt- in this ease: The delivery necessary to trans fer title to real property nudera deed signed and sealed is composed of two coucurient parts, namely : an intention to deliver and an - ct evincing a purpose to part w th tbe control ot the instrineut.

There may be an inteiuiuu never consum mated, and the instrument may be >ut in the custody of another to be isld subject to the control of tbe grantor.

The Supreme Coart agrees with the Circuit J' dge that upon the whole case the weight of the testi mony is in favor of the allegations ot tbe defendants, and the deeds in dispute were duly delivered. The deeds were no*, recorded when tbe bond and mortgage to the plaintiff were executed, but the plaintiff was informed ot tbe fact cf the execution of tbe deeds. They ivere not, however, shown plaintiff; but under the circum stances the plaintiff had more in- formation than he orutd have de rived from an inspection of tbe re cord if tbey had been recorded. The plaintiff should have ascertain ed the at tual state of the facts or >e bound by them as they were. City Council vs. Page, 1 Speer Eq, 212 ; Wallace vs. Craps, 3 Slrob.. 268; Darr vs. Sims, Rich.

When the Legislature adjourn ed the State treasury held about $650,000, au amount in excess of tbe holdings of the treasury at any time during tbe last ten years at least. Tbe payment of tbe ex penses of the General Assembly and of its various appropriations and the partial payment of interest on the State debt has reduced the amount to about $500,000, which is, however, a pretty formidable sum. There will be no May collection of taxes this year so that the $200,- 000 usually collected during that month will be lacking. The Ad ministration desires to avoid tbe necessity of l»orrowiiig money dur ing the summer, aud it ia believed that with the large surplus now on baud the Government can be run until the fall collection of taxes without borrowing a dollar. The comfortable condition of the treas ury is due in great part to the o'ose Capt. Robert W. Andrews, the veteran walker of Sumter, S.

(from th* Orangeburg Timfs-Perfiocr*t.) Not long ago a couple of well- known gentlemen, one a resident of this town aud the other of the Fork, concluded to try dynamite cartridges on fish. Arming them selves with the necessary ammuni tion they procured a bateau and paddled out to tbe centre of a large mill pond, not many miles from Orangeburg, to try their first ex periment. Everything being ready the fuse to the cartridge was light ed and tbe combustible gently dropped in tbe pond. This being done tbe gentlemen thought it prndeut to paddle the bateau away ontof danger and give tbe cartridge a fair chance.' Bat in attempting to do Ibis tbey discovered that the boat was bard stuck on a stump. After working a little while and finding it impossible to get the boat off, one ot the gentlemen re marked to the other that be did not want bis wife to be a widow Jast yet and jumped overboard, closely followed by bis friend. It was a pretty cold day, bntour friends managed to reach tbe shore just in time to hear tbe exploeion of their cartridge, wbicb killed two fish. We bave not heard wbat their opinion is eoneerning the dynamite experiment on fish, but we are satisfied thee feel assured that it is an exeelleifl thing to make a fellow take a bath on a cold day against his will.

Ed.) -1 EUacatlaa far tba Xilllsa. Washington, January 7.—The Senate committee on education baa considered and aubmitted a favor able report qii the Biair educational bill. It ia reported from tbe com- millee substantially ua it passed the Senate in tbe last Coiigieas. The report, states that since the bill wad laat COiiaidl'red in tbe Sen ate tbia measure has been generally and thoroughly discussed through out the country, aud probably pub lie sentiment is more heartily in favor of it now than ever before. The language of the old report is reproduced and inune iiate eon sideraliou is urged in the Senate so that the House in-y have ample opportunity to consider it during the present session. Senator Hampton, is slid a friend of the bill ami he predicts that it will pass the Senate again without serious opposition. He is also of the opinion that it has more ti lends iu tbe House at piesent than here tofore and if brought to a vote it insy pass. Just now there is no telling what effect Representative Aikdi’s absence will have on this meesure. He baa again been plsced at tbe head of the education com miltee and to this committee the Blair l-ill will lie sent af er it has Men reported to the House. From ireseut advices Mr. Aiken will prob- tbly be detained away from his egis ative duties tbe greater part of this session by reason of illness, and it is questionable whether the education committee wonld.care to pass upon such an important mat ter during the absence of the chair man, especially when it is known that be does not favor the bill and regards it as uncoustitntion al. We hope that no silly sentimen tality will prevent Congressmen from opposing the appropriation of $200,000 for a monument to Gen. Grant. If his family were in need or if he were in need, it wonld be a different thing altoge ber. Gen. Grant is dead and his family are amply provided for, and for bis re membrance he bath no need of a mou . ment. The $100,000, and more which bave already been subscribed for that purpose are quite enough; a ud, indeed. Congress has no right to take tbe money raised by taxa tion in bard times like those for any such purpose. It were better by far to provide bread for the living than toewrtinbe to pile np costly siones to the dead.—Newt and Courier. More of Mr. J. C.

When Goldsmith wrote “She Stoops to Conquer,” he adapted wonts to a pretty but difficult Irish air, “Tli. 1 Humors of Ballamagairy,” intending that they should be sung by Miss Hardcaslle.

We consider that South Carolina is scandalously treated in the form ation of the committees of the House ot Representatives, inasmuch as this State, which is certainly one of the most important of the South Atlantic States, has no representa tion whatever on the committee on rivers and harbors.
