The County Commissioners of Aiken and tho two papers there, are engaged ia a little dispute in which our sympa? thies are entirely with the newspapers. The officials are trying to beat down the ? price the papers are . charging for their revising, and hiting in that, have grefas^to advertise through their col .,.Ejpv-"'Tps, and, instead, .post their public notices on pine trees and at cross roads. ?vV'- Those genttemen seem to be very igno \c - rant of the iaw, or extremely reckless Tn its^ violationv The law requires the pv^^ Cou-nty Commissioners to advertise in a ?newspaper published in the County, and allows-the paper to charge its transient grates for such work, provided those raieVdo not exceed one dollar a square Byior one insertion. The Aiken papers pifare^ agreed among themselves tc divide rteia raie, .both .to pubUsh-all the official adverifei?g;:??>d thus torgive tbs County tte benefit of double advertising for one price ; and siill "those economical gen? tlemen who compose the Board are* not satisfied -but iusist upon a ?ow?r price, and the papers refusing to give onejthey have resorted to pine trees and ??&er prominent objects for their advertising. Yery possibly these gentlemen are trying to do their duty, but they are evidently densely ignorant, or stup?d?y prejudiced. We suppose they have not attempted the reduction of legal fees in any other quarter than among the news? papers.- Ko doubt their salary remojas*^ untouched, their Clerk is jpairj^all the law allows, their stationery bills are paid in full, but when^rcomes to news papers--3jaj^f?re is the place to prae tice^oelSaomy. The editor has to fill up with something and why not put in all this advertising. It's interesting reading and the people wili be glad to see it. That is their side of the ques? tion, forgetting or never knowing that the advertising patronage of a paper is its main support. Newspapers do a great deal of charity work-none do more ' unless it be preachers and doctors-and they are willing to do it, but when it comes to County officials refusing to- pay what -.the State says shall be paid, it is high r&ine to protest. . Weare inclined to think that the presiding Judge, at the next term of the Aiken Cou?-?, will make those County Commissioners feel smaller than they have since the last application of the maternal slipper, in childhood's happy ?our. THE BULE OS1 THE MOB. We copy from the Edgefield Adver tiser an account of the lynching of 0. T. Culbreath, in that town last week. We cordially endorse the sentiments of our contemporary and are glad to see j thatJare susta-raed ld County, and that ptrage hes aroused nt horror in every outspoken expression of ran auspicious omen, and put of the enormity of the me ~?h*?s much- of good*, will see that such fla f law must cease ; and spire together to take f even though the victim murderer, are themselves and except in the case of that they be held strictly ,w. for its violation. tolaj*?r?}Tr?-f mos^^ K^wouid be were there bcok for tho p'i^Wi^'^^^^ffr?Tioa.ls : and the majority of executions are at the hands of mobs. We can but see the grave wrong in ?1 this. The utter contempt of law which such acts instill into the minds of thc young and thoughtless will, in the future, bring forth a terribie har? vest of crime. If a dozen men have the right to join together to punish a sriminal for wrong-doing to another, they will soon begin to think that they a?vO the right to avenge their own wrongs, and the reign .of might would won prevail. The rub of the mob, as was exhib? ited at Spartanburg two weeks ago, and ? Edgefield last week, must be checked if we would have the law respected, and s?e are glad to see that tbe coroner's cry in the case of Galbreath are doing heir part to bring about this desirable md. They fiai^that 0. T. Cuibreath jame to his death from a gun shot sound at the hands of Wm. Parkman, md that*Wyatt Holmes and other par? ies unknown to the jury were accesso? ries thereto.'" Such a verdict, for such m offense is a great victory for law and >rder over the rapidly growing senti- I neot that favors the administration of ! fudge Lynch's Court, and will have a j nost wholesome influence upon the law ess element who think it is thoroughly joalified to act as judge, jury, pros? ecuting attorney and hangman upon all ?riminais. Tbs man who would verv .eadily help a mob to inflict punishment | i he thought no harm could come to aimself for participating in thc wrong, "vouIJ.be equally ready to stay home, if lhere was a probability of his being j punished for what he did. Mob law can be stopped. Let it be lone. COUNTS Y LIQUO& SHOPS. Wc publish in another column, a ? brief answer to the queries of our cor- ! sponcent "Country." and the qucs- j <one of sufficient importance to j I Ifany^adding a fCV7 more words. regionsf?>^UtS?de ?f - \ j tcts of the Be~lN!*HCe ihe Lea^uar- | ! - .i . -T^is earthly iran?, j i it is the cross road er>l j J these nuisances can, in tffi^" ?^ j change a peaceful, quiet neigS^^ j into a pandemonium. These rests. fiow from them even when they are sanctioned by law, how infinitely worse then are they in their terrible influence, when their existence is a brazen viola- j tion of the Statures of the State. The man who- sol's intoxicating ? liquors in Sumter County outside of the j town of Sumter is a law-breaker, as j much so, as if he were a thief or a mur- j derer, aud by his example he is teach- i ing others to be law-breakers. lie j plies his nefarious culling from year to j year and Saunts his ill-gotten gains in | the face of those whose needs may tempt them to follow his example. it is the urgent duty of every man and woman to do their part towards checking this crime, not alone because it is a violation of the law, though that would be reason enough, but because it brings a curse in its train. The law is plain, and can be enforced, and if ibe law-abiding ^people of Sumter wish it, the last one of these wrong doers can, in threc^r^pths, be in a felons cell. ?fr^?teli of Whiskey's Work. Sunday, the 20th instant, two young men, Walker and Gibson, living near Greer's Station, in Spartanburg Coun? ty came to Greenville presumahjylo get drunk. At any rate they^t?id so, and after laying in a su^p^ylbr their home? ward journey, worked up a- difficulty wjib^?^oO?m'ed man named Brockman, when one of them named Walker wan? tonly stabbed him. Brockman lingered for five days and died, the victim of the man who stabbed him, the whiskey which took away his reason, and the whiskey seller who violated the law and broke his bond bv selling ifc on Sunday. The Greenville News speaking of the tragedy says : Ben Brockman is dead, poor fellow, and two respectable and intelligent men lie in jail with a trial for their lives and a probable term ia the penitentiary to look forward to. What this community is interested in in advance of the trial is the fact that somebody here violated the State and .eity laws last Sunday by selling liquor, if that liquor had not been sold in defi? ance of laws, bonds and public senti? ment, Ben Brockman would be alive and w?ll this morning and Gibson and Walker would be free men, without the stain of blood on their hands and with their families attending to their affairs. Who sold that liquor? We don't know. It is net our business to know. The people pay taxes'and give men sal? aries to know such things and have the law vindicated. Every officer of the law, county and municipal, has sworn to uphold the law and accepts pay to do that and nothing else. Clarendon News.

Mr. Editor: In. my last notes the word "connection," in section second, should have been "conversation," as written, and "a" was left out in another place, which some? what destroyed the sense. Now ? know that the best of people make mistakes, how? soever ca'ref ul they may be, but as printers are considered experts in reading bad writing they might give the benefit of a doubt to a word the;* can't make out, and supply the proper one to make sense as called forth by the rest cf the senlence.

The Pisgah Baptist Church has recently elected two additional Deacons in the persons of Capt. Alexander Moseley and Mr. T. W. Hawkins. I understand that the Swift Creek Baptist Church is about to get in trouble with the Episcopalians about their church building. Both parties claim it. I heard a man say that a preacher in Ker? shaw County would make a fine lawyer, and. or.e in Sumter County would make a gfltfd clown. Who are they ? I notice in the list of Scj^oTTrustees pub i ter County, the name of L. M. S???Hli^?HCershaw County, appears as Trustee for Spring Hill Township. Now, what right, authority cr law has the School Commissioner to appoiut a citizen of another County to su?h an of??ce, when so many men in that Township."ara^?ompetent to fill the position with credit to all. LetJ^m explain. [ think Mr. Wilder's attention has been caileoT io this before. Mr. Editor, the time is here when thc mer? chant says to the farmer: I have fed and clothed yon all the year. I must be paid. The doctor says, I went to see you when you ! were sick, and spent my medicines and time JO you, I must be paid. The preacher says, j [ have broke the bread of Life to yon, so if j rou were to die and be lost it will not be my j ault, I must be paid. The editor says. I have j "ornished news to you from all sections of j the world to enlighten your dull brains, and islam poor, and have nothing but my paper fora living, / must be paid in full, and I want rou to understand it without further talk, j l'be tax collector laughs and says, I wiil be | aaid in full whether the i-estget theirs or not. j [ wiH-be sure to have mine. Then ail the j lifferent-agen?s cry for theirs, and if the poor j "armer can'? pay-ii lija full, bc is dishonest j md a rascal. No excuse-for him.

Mr. Blitor : I am glad to see that "G. 3."K writing from Packsville under date of Sept. 21st, takes the Bishopvilie Base Ball I Jiub to task for claiming the championship of | Sumter, Kershaw, Clarendon and Orange >urg Counties. I can see no valid reason why heir club should claim the championship ?vcr the three last named Counties without ;avjag played either a single game. Bishop? vilie must learn to fight her own battles be ore she crows over the victories of another dub. - The Game Cocks started early in tue season >y defeating the Providence Club, when lue two combined. Wc also played one game with the Kershaws )f Camden and were also victorious in that, jut the Game Cocks do not claim the champ? ionship of Kershaw County, because they beat >nc of her clubs a single game. It takes a ?eries bf games to decide the championship inless it is expressly understood that one jame shall decide it. We were anxious to iieet the Kershaws again but owing to una? voidable circumstances could not do so. We ?Iso challenged the Furt Motte Club of Or ingeburg Conn ty, but for reasons best known 10 themselves they decliued to play us. We ?id not think that they were afraid to meet the Game Cocks,and cannot claim she champ? ionship of Orangeburg County because one of lier clubs declined to play. Now for Claren? don County. Early in thc season wc received 11 challenge from the club at Manning, naming a certain day to meet us in Sumter. The time that they appointed conflicted with an? other ni ai ch game that we had previously ar? ranged and of course we had to decline it. We made two appointments to meet them af? terwards, but they declined to meet us. ? suppose Bishopvilie takes this as a sweeping (?) victory for the Game Cocks. No, wc do nM claim the championship of any County or i club until wc have met them in thc field, and j defeated them hy orinal playing. On the 25th of August thc Carolina Club of Purks yilie challenged ns for a match game to be >iaycd in S?niter. Uar club then had. for various "reasons, disbanded for the season, a-id of course we had to decline to.play them. This "back down''" on cur part gives ClarcH- i Jon ;:s much, right to claim the championship o^- Sumter as Bishopvilie has to claim it over\?ie three named Cou rf ties. It is true that DiSVopvi?e did {day two frames with the Game Co?^ and were. Victorious in both. Wc acknowledge our defeat, and yield to them the County Championship, but can sec no grounds whatever why Bishopvilie should claim the championship over so wide a ter? ritory.
