C., OCTOUEU 3. 187?. Supreme Court and tho Bond Ques tion. In June, 1877, the Legislature adopted a Joint Resolution which provided, for the appointment of a: Commission, to contest ol members of the House and Senate, whoso duly ?it should be to report upou the Bond .indebtedness of the Stale. In due .tinic Ibis C'ommissioj: made n full re port which in their judgment assert ,v,that the consolidation bonds and cer tificates were not issued in accord ance with law. The Legislature, without afliruiing or disaffirming the decision of the Commission, passed an another Joint Resolution provid ing for the establishment of what is known as the Court of Claims, which should have jurisdiction over any case made up and brought before iL to test the vitality of any of the con-, .solidaled bonds, coupons and certifi cates of stock mentioned by the Com mission. The Attorney-General and his associates with the consent of the creditors ol the Slate, made up a case ? or cases and brought them befurfc the Court of Claims with the State as de fendant. Upon the trial of these cases a majority of '.he Court render ed their judgment in favor of the ?Stale, and from these judgments the creditors appealed and carried the matters, befoic the Slate Supreme Court. T|ic recent important decision ol the highest tribunal known to the Slate seems, as near as wc can gath er ftom the elaborate report given, to confirm the judgment of the Court of ^. Claim? as''^d-' as illtp xdcision of' ?'the Bond Commission. The opinion was rendered by Associate Justice Mclvcr, Chief Justice Willard con curring. Associate Justice llaskcll dissents, holding that all the consoli date bonds are valid obligations ol the Slate. The decision affects all bonds and coupons issued on the authority of nn 'Act authorizing n loan for the re lief of the Treasury ; all issued for exchange for conversion bonds ; and such as were issued for exchange for the second issue of bonds under an Act authorizing n foan pay the interest on the public debt?in all amounting to some $2,407,51-1. ? By an Act of the preceding Legis lature ll.o past indebtedness of the State was ordered lu he funded by paying fifty cents on the dollar in new bonds. This decision, therefore, of the Supreme Court will save the is ' sue ol Sl,201,757[in bonds, which will eventually be equal tu that much act ual money to be paid by the tax-pay ers of the State. For the sake of getting the debt issue out of the next, campaign we hope this decision will be accepted as the final settlement of the only ques tion which is likely to divide tho loudors of our Stato in the next elec tion. Il is not reasonable to suppose that the entire views of cither the creditors or the representatives of the Stale wi 1 be met, but the decision is tho voice of our highest court and the wisdom of our Cost judges, therefore, it docs not become any class of our citizens to criticise in a captious spir it or peevishly to quarrel over a fruit less matter. Let the party, unbur dened by such nn issue, cuter into the campaign in light man hing order and victory will crown the efforts of lhc Democracy in 1880. Tho Fair. Well, what of it ? Simply this. Are you going to attend, and will you Carry anything for exhibition? I( you intend to help the Fair, don't wait until it is loo late to prepare be cause you have only a mouth to do it in. Every one has something he might take to the Fair, but will leave it at home because ho thinks some pne.might have something better. This will do for those who have no interest in the prosperity of others or who are controlled solely by a desire to get a premium. If tho Exhibition is to be Mippoiled only by those whoj arc sine of a prize our fairs would j nut amount lo much. Mako iL u point to bring Fomcthing wbotbcryouj are successful'in taking a prize or not, nudlet that something bo the best you have. If you are for lu unto in scouring a pti/.c so tnucj the bet ter; if you fail, why don't get mad ibout it and Cid ist yourself among die .opposes of fairs. Itcmembcr there is much merit iu trying to de servo a prize, and where so many ar ticles of the same kind are exhibited, ouly one can get the premium. Such a failure ought to be a lesson from which to learn the cause of your short-coining, so that next year you may prepare an article that will excel oven the lucky one. We have seen in our travels about the county many articles of household economy that would compare favorably with those exhibited at fairs and yet the owners of them did not think it worth while to carry up the article. Many of our county friends would be surprised at the mhvo.-s of some trilling piece ol work Were they lo place it on exhibi tion. Go to work now aud think over the matter. One month is am ple time in which to utiange and pre pare articles intended for IbJ Fair. Tile Directors have kindly, and very wisely too, prepared a depart ment for boys und girls. We hope that many of them will be found com peting for premiums at cur approach ing Fair. There is no telling what nice work may be done by little will ing lingers if they would only try. Sometimes old people are excelled by the children and there is no reason why this should not be thocase.nl the next fair. Try, boys and girls, and show what can be done. The chief object in going to fairs should not be to obtain prizes, but to sec and to learn from the experi ence of others. We notice people running about ftorn place to place tiying to see everything in one day. This is impossible for there are hun dreds of articles not only lo lie seen but to be examined and studied care fully which will consume the entire llnee days of the Fair. Such hasty work tires one down and when night comes he is unlit for anything. Sight seeing is a -tiresome thing any wajT, and very seldom profitable. Think about the things you would like to sec and arrange thoin with some sys tem and then when you go to the Fair examine them thoroughly and profit by it ; if you have time for I sight-seeing then is the time lo in I yhilue in.it, buj. not before,vou have, learned all you wish. The experience of others is an easier and better teacher than our own and no where can we learn this lesson better than at our annual Fair. A Bubble Exploded. In a report of a recent visit to Blnckvillc, "A. B. \\\," in the Ntios and Coiiri'i'i exposes the ridiculous story put in circulation by Northern papers on the authority of Fred Nix, colored, postmaster at Blackvillc, that a conspiracy had been formed against him because of his color and polities, and came near culminating by taking his life. The whole matter ended in nothing more than a person al dilficully between Nix and a young lad eighteen years of age, by the name of Luther Williams, which re-1 suited in a few shots and a scratch on Nix' person. The same thing might have happened in any Northern town under the same circumstances lie cause no one seems to have been im plicated except the two actually en-1 gaged. The entire published report was intended l>3' Nix and his friends to excite the sympathies of the North ern people in his behalf and lo arouse their passions against the Southern whites. This purpose signally failed and it is hoped that our Northern cit izens have had enough of such reports' by this time to receive them with many grains of allowance. Their leading men have associated with our leaderssulllciently lo know that there is really no enmity between the races at the South. Northern white men in our midst arc aware of Hie same truth, and, if they would allow exist ing causes to work out their legiti mate results, society would soon free itself w ithout violence of all turbulent elements. This process, if inlcifcrrcd with by political agitators, will only prolong the trouble and postpone the coming of pence and prosperity be tween Iho races. Thinking Northern men, living among us, can do much to elevate the moral lone of the race by guiding the colored sentiment in the true channel. Politics and super stition closely resemble each other in their effects upon ignorance, and a high moral education is the antidote for both. ? Georgia's Impeachment Trial. For sonic lime the Senate of Geor gia has been engaged in trying the ::asc of Comptroller-General Wash j Goklsintlb, on charges of malfbasanco jiu office, and, after prolonged debate on the port of attorneys and Senators, both for and against tho Coinplrojler Gcncrnl, tho High Court of Impeach ment cauic to a vote last week and by an overwhelming majority pio nounccd General Wash Goldsmith guilty of appropriating the State's money to his own use. This vote will have the effect of expelling him from ? olllco and disqualifying him forever hereafter from holding any political position of profit or trust in tho gill of his fellow citizens. J\Ir. Goldsmith is said to be a roan of a most amiable disposition and beloved anil respected in his.private life. His war record is untarnished, and the gallant part he played in the defense of his State is a subject of comment by all who know him. It is the almost uuivcrenl opinion among Iiis personal friends that his fall is directly due to tho trickery of supposed friends, that he had been misled by those in whom ho confided and that his purposes in committing the act was not to be guilty of wrong doing, His error was one of mis placed confidence and not of the heart. Yet ho was forced to leave his ollice and the Senate Chamber slipped of bis honor and bis citizen ship. Roads. We hear considerable complaint about road-wot king, and the distance hands are obliged to go in order to perform Ibis duty. In some cases our citizens travel six or even ten miles from home to work a public road over which they don't pass more than once or twice a year at most. There are several neighborhood roads in the county traveled more than pub lic roads; especially is this the case when lliey pass through densely pop ulated sections leading lo the Court House or some point of trade like Branch villo or Lcwisville; audit is from such sections hands are general ly called off to work distant public roads. Could not the road law be so changed as to allow these private roads to bo worked by the persons liv ing immediately upon them,when suffi cient bands may be had living near public roads lo keep them in order. Such a change in the law would bene fit muny sections of our county and open up highways lo Orungeburg that could not he reached just now by Lewislalivc enactment. Wc sim ply throw out these hints that persons interested may think about the prac ticability of the suggestions. _ Notice. H'dquau's Tiunn Brigade, 1 Orangeburg, S.

In order to enable this Depart ment to present a full and correct roster of the troops of the State to the Legislature in November next, it is necessary that the Captains of each company report directly to his Briga dier the following particulars: A.

South Carolina li?ilr?ad stock, which for a long time was considered as having a merely nomiual value, seems somehow to have regained a place (though a low one) in the mar ket. For months past there has been n limited demand for it at irregular pi i ces the offers of buyers ranging from ?*2 to S i a share. To-day a Broad .street broker advertises for 200 shares at ?tho highest price offered for many a day. Il is understood that the-purchases are madoon Northern orders. What they mean nobody seems to know.?Ntws ami Courier, Sept. 22. We think iL means that tho rail road is being tnannged in such a way by Mr. Fisher as to make its stock worth .something, in the future, il not now. Had Mr. Fisher, or some other good rail road manager, been put at the head of this road at the close ol the war, we verily believe its slock would now be above par instead of | selling for the paltry sum of live dol-i bus.
