From 4 e*clock it grows io beauty until the splendor of the newly risen sun hides it to the naked eye. It is even more brilliant than the one which appeared in the Western sky just before the war. Ko one should miss this grand ind unusual spectacle. The tail is about 20 degrees long and between 4 and 5 so'clock in the morning it makes an angle of 45 degrees with the eastern-horizon, pointing towards tb? lone star Alphard in Hydra. I t is slightly baot, or sword shaped, the concave I side being toward the Jiorth. There is an ap- ! pearanceas .ot. narrow, dark rifts running lengthwise through it, as. though . a painter bad drawn it with a coarse brush. Its ^harp outlines and steady light increase the appear? ance of solidity which atones impresses the beholder on seeing the comet The best time to see it is between 4 J and 5 o'clock in the morning. It rises tail first, and the red bue that it borrows from the morning base increases the impressiveness of the scene- Nobody who rises early to see this comet will regret the loss of sleep it costs, for re may not behold such a spectacle in the "n^yeats. -' "about'that little subscription bill you owe us?

Mr. E. S. Carson, foreman of tbe Grand Jury, offered the following Presentment on Tuesday, too late for our last issue: Presentment of the Grand Jury. OCTOBER TERM 1882. The Grand Jury respectfully submit to the Court that as all the County offices were examined in February 1882, the Grand Jury concluded that it was unnecessary to do so again. They would respectfully present to the Court that they have examined the work of R. S. Brad well, for which he was to be paid the sum of Three Hundred Dollars for index? ing the books of the Recorder of Mesne Con? veyance for this County, and find that tbe said sum is too small for the work and we respectfully recommend that Mr. R. S. Brad well be paid the sum of Five Hundred Dollars for said work. .1 We would farther present to this Court the fact that one Robert Cou neill, a violent character, now under charge of burglary and larceny, is now at large in the county, having upon two occasions escaped from the officers of the law, as this Jury is informed. 4i;f"; :'El SCOTT GAT?SON, Foreman.

The Madison Square Theatre Company won for themselves the boisterous applause of a crowded house last night, in tbe domestic comedy entitled- "Esmeralda." We noticed in the house persons representing almost every section of the County, and the troupe were.enlivened by the fact that their visit was at-least a pecuniary success. ?Tbe^p??? was simple and unique; and the play was thoroughly decent and respectable. Its morals were numerous-oneaboutjthe fury of a domineering wife-one about the mu? tability of shifting human fortunes--one about the strength and i?ncbahgeabl?ness of true love, and one about the preciousness of an old homestead. ;ADrparts ol?fo'f*s~j*7?ao8it admi raMy sestain?d ; bat of course each one in the au? dience had his choice.I> Mr. Rogers, as a good and submissive husband, (as all hus? bands should be,) struck our fancy most, while Mr. Estabrook, as a gentleman of lei? sure, carried out his part admirably. When tbe Madison Square Theatre Co. want a fnll bouse in Sumter, they have only to let it be known that they are coming. > MAGAZINES, &c.

That morn!pg he looked over three dozen pair of socks to gera pair without a hole in them. His search was rewarded by his finding a single sock intact, which he paton to make a pre? sentable appearance. Entering the shop be was told by the shoemaker to take off his shoe,^phich be did with alacrity, having an eye single to tbe sock without the hole. His measure was taken. So far so good. 'Now, let's get thc other foot, blandly remarked the shoemaker. Horror! 'Thisfoot is tbe lar? gest/ said tbe bachelor. But the shoemaker insisted on having the measure of both feet, and as no excuse WOP M be listened to, that he "dido'-t bave time-would come back again/' at last off came the other eboe, when lo I bis foot was bare to the heel 1 The poor fellow tried to explain by saying he wasn't "mar? ried, and couldn't sew," and immediately afterward bought two dozen pairs of the best British hose. He certainly deserves the sym? pathy of the entire community. - -+-^m--*- - An Impossibility. Deserving articles are always appreciated.
