Bis charge to the Grand Jury -was comprehensive in detailing their duties, and we have no doubt bat that a faithfnl ob servance of Judge Cothran's instructions would result in a wonderful amount of good to onr county. Many violations of law which go unchecked in our midst would soon be stopped if the Grand Jury should take cognizance of them and bring them before the courts. The^ Grand Jury have found true bills in the following cases: The State vs. Joe How ard, for mnrder; vs. Bob Toney, burglary; vs. Sam DeVeaux, burglary an* larceny; vs. Van Buren Anderson, iarcei.y ; vs: Edward Benjamin and EH Benjamin, larceny; vs. Henry Williams, grand larceny; vs. Primus McFaddin,assault with intent to kill; vs. Cyrus Gourdin, fraud ; vs. Alpheus Sanders, failure to perform road duty; vs. Thomas Washington, burglary and larceny; vs. Swepson H. Sanders, assault with intent to Mil; vs. John D. Lynch, abduction. * Lewis Robertson, Van Buren, Anderson and Bob Toney have been found guilty and sentenced to hard labor in the Penitentiary; the first two for one year each, and the other for two years. The case against Joseph How ard for murder has been set for Friday. H is Honor is working with energy, but an un usually heavy docket will keep the Court busy toe entire week with criminal cases. Flourishing Establishment. Mr. J. D. Craig, onr furniture man, has built np a flourishing business in Sumter, by carefal attention to the details of bis work. It has been-steadilyincreasing, until now it has-grown into proportions much larger than be could have anticipated in the past. "A passer-by or casual visitor to bis store will not get an idea of the large and varied stock that he' keeps on ba?d. In order to know what he has, it is necessary to go all over his place?up stairs and out into his waie-xooms?or which he has some four or five?where different classes of furnjtare are kept in balk, in regular systematic arrange ment. The front establishment only contains a small part of his regular stock, and is large ly used as a sample-room of what he really has, especially in the Hoe of chairs and ta bles?there being only, one of each kind shown, * . Io the line of bedsteads alone, he has about six-hundred, of various styles and prices, ranging from $2.50 up, until you reach the fioe Walnut sets. The undertaking depart ment of bis busintss is really astonishing, em bracing coffins of all sizes and prices from the lowest price up to the elegant caskets; and ? coffin can be supplied ready for use at almost a moment's notice. His assortment of bedding upholstery, picture frames, &c, is very large, and purchasing his goods by the car ioad reduces the first cost and freight charges to the minimum, al! of which advan tages he divides with bis customers, acd parties in want of anything in his line should look at his stock before ordering or buying elsewhere, ?3 he can save them money. r. O. G- T. , On last Wednesday, -G. W. C. T.,' U. F. Chrietzberg organized a lodge of Good Tem plars at Bishopville, S. C. The following officers were chosen for the current quarter: L. P. Husbands, W.

Kiss Sal lie Durant, W. 1. G. J. H. Dixon, W.O. G. Miss Olivia Durant, R. H. S. Mrs. Dr. R. E. Dennis, L. H. S. At night, quite a large audience assembled in the Presbyterian Church to listen to an ad dress on temperance hy Rev. II. F. Chrietz berg. The Presbyterian choir furnished de lightful music. The lecture was highly complimented by the* audience, many of whom ' jgretted he did not speak longer. Messrs. F. EL Folsoru k Bro. have received some attractive goods in their line, and are wailing for more before tbey make a formal announcement. Look out for their advertise ment.

It is a wonderful exhi bition of what can be done by an energetic use of money. The Richmond Whig, in speaking of the circus says 'bat everything was shown and done that was advertised. One of the most interesting features was the bicycle riding by the Stirk family, and the thousands who witnessed the various perfor mances unite in the universal verdict that Sells Brothers have the best show that has exhibited io the South for many years. We cut from the Review the following: Sells Brothers' Circus and Managerie exhi bited this afternoon and will give another ex hibition to-night. Their enormous tents are pitched on Dickinson's Hill, in the Northern portion of the city, thither thousands hare wended their way during the day. The com pany made the usual street parade th is after noon, much to the delight and amusement of the throug of lookers-on who lined the side walk of every street through which the im posing pageaut passed. The procession was very long and very fine consisting of 42 cages, 110 borseSj 9 elephants, 8 camel", 4 bands of music, a steam piauo and other features to give interest and effect to the display. The performance under the canvass this afternoon was witnessed by thousands and the general expression seems to have been one of satisfac tion. We cannot particularize as we go to press almost simultaneously with the close of the show but we saw enough of it to say that Sell's Bros, carry out the advertised pro gramme more scrupulously than any circus show that has visited Wilmington since the war. The celebrated Juno and Corduroy Cor3et, now sold at 90* cents, at J, Ryttenberg k Sons. Six button Mousquitaire Gloves, at $1.50 and five-book Kid Gloves, only $1.00, "at J. Ryttenberg k Sons.

You ought -to see the face of the boy when the circus tent blows down just as he has paid for his ticket. "Why don't you advertise?" was inquired of a jeweler. "Because I'm not going to let burglars know what a big stock of goods I have on hand," he replied. He was one of the old fogy sort, but Messrs. C. I. Hoyt & Bro. keep a fine stock and are not afraid of advertising or burglars either. Call and see their new and elegant goods. A man purchased a piano for his daughter recently, and the other day called on the ageutand wanted to know when the "forte" would be delivered.

"When Greece her knees?Greece her knees ?Greece her knees," stammered an embar rassed school-boy, forgetting the next line of his recitation.

"Yes, sir; this kind of work obliges a man to keep sober as a judge. Of all men in the world, steamboat pilots and railroad en gineers should let liquor alone. For on their clearness of sight and coolness of head de pends the safety of life and proj?erly." Keeping his band on the wheel as he said this, Mr. A. Brockman, of No. 29? Silver street, Chicago, added : "Of course, some of 'em drink ; but the sober ones have the best positions and the best pay. Yes, the work and exposure sometimes tells on us; but for my part, I find Parker's Tonic to be all the iovigorant I need. I've got a bottle aboard here now; never go on a trip without it. When I haven't any appetite, or am in any way out. of sorts, it sets me up in no time. If drinking men wonld use the Tonic, it would help 'em to break off. (No, that isn't a light house; it's a star, low down near the water.) As I was saying, The Tonic is new I jfe bot tled up. You see that flag-staff? Well, with a bottle of Parker's Tonic in the locker I can keep malaria as far from me as that, all the time.

Don't break your neck going below." This preparation, which has been known 88 Parker's Ginger Tonic, will hereafter be ad vertised and sold simply nuder tbe name of Parker's Tonic. As unprincipled dealers are constantly deceiving their customers by sub stituting inferior articles under the name of ginger, and as ginger is really an unimpor tant ingredient, we drop the misleading word.
