AH per eofts ia tie State seeking employment or wanting help, can inser? an advertisement in the columus of the Eegisttr, not exceeding twenty-five words, free.

Eeligious. The evangelist, Rev. Mr. ??eitch, is in the city and is conducting a revival meeting at the Methodist Cbuch. A letter from "Guv," and also one from 'Qui Vive" are crowded out of this issue. Court. Court convened again this morning, Judge Aldrich having returned from his home where he went last Sunday evening to see his daugh? ter married. The murder case against John R. Keels and K. Pennington was taken up and Solicitor Gilland stated to the Court that as all the facts and circumstances connected with this case had been fully developed in the trial of the others for the* same charge and as there was no evidence to establish the guilt of either of these parties, therefore the case of the State vs John R. Keels and K. Penning? ton charged with the murder of George E. Haynsworth would be nol probed. Where? upon the Judge informed the Solicitor that he heartily concurred with him in the opin? ion just stated to the Court and that the nol pros was right and proper ia ;his case. The minor cases against ail of the parlies in this unfortunate affair'have been continued. Business is Business. The Hudson (N. Y.) Register very pointedly says: "Al! the leading newspapers of Buffalo and Rochester have adopted rules for self-pro? tection against imposition in the shape of re? quests for free advertising and notices of all kin is not in the line of legitimate uews. This action is in the line of sound business princi? ples, and should be adopted by all newspa? pers engaged in legitimate business. A great dea: of matter is presented to newspapers for gratuitous publication that should be made to pay so much a line, and in this way it has happened that people have got into thc way ot demanding from newspapers almost as a right what is fully entitled to reasonable compensation." - - -???- -i - The Weekly Register. The Columbia Weekly Registe 1 an eight page paper 6lied with all the news of the worid. it is especially ahead of any paper in the State ii giving the home news throughout South Carolina. Editorially it is unsurpass? ed, and this, taken in connection with its straightout Democracy, and its price, one dollar a year, should give st a wide circula? tion. The Earle Democratic Club. This Club was organized at Osteen's Mill on Saturday, June 2nd, by the election of the following oficers: President-J. W. Broad way. Vice Presidents-W. A. Nettles, J. C. Hodge.

That we do hereby organize ourselves into a new "Democratic club." Resolved, 2.

PRESENTMENT OF GUAM) JURY. . MAY TEIOI-iSSS. To the l?j?t. Judge A. P. Atdrich-Pre aidiug: The Grand Jury respectfully report j to the Honorable Court, that they have ' by committee both at "heir own voli? tion arid request; of the County Trcas ! urer visited tue office and inspected the accounts of the Treasurer's of?ice j sufficiently to satisfy them that books, j accouuts and vouches are correct, and j further, that there is cash on hand, and provided for, to pay expenses of i th" Court. They visited by eommittee the Poor j j House and find nothing worthy of j mention to report. They have also j I iooked after the different County oili- j j ces to the extent t hai the pub?ic?nler- j I est required and lind nothing worthy j of mention except, and almost if not! quite criminal neglect of duty ia pro- j riding for the proper and hu mane care I I of the prisoners. Th,ey lind that no j provision is made for the washing of | i clothes and persons of prisoners, j j They i:nd the Jail polluted with vermin j (body-lice and chiuehes or bed bugs; j j an agency of torment to the prisoners j j which they regard as inexcusable and j ! an unjust "reflection upon the civiliza- j ; Mon ol our country and age and au un I merciful affliction upon the prisoners j I not anticipated or intended by the law. j j With the light of the law which the ? [Grand Ju rv have, rh ey attribute t hi s | I deplorable" condition of tito Jail j S prisoners to rho dereliction of duty of i I both the Board of County Commis- j j sioners and the Sheriff and they ask j ! that the Honorable Court will fuie in ; i accordance'.vii ii thc iaw against lite! j officials who are blamable fur this j neglect. Again the Grand Jury lind j I in Jail one Jos. F- Baker- who was j ; tried and sentenced at the i?tr- term of |;Court for living in adultery, for six j J months imprisonment, prostrated j witt? fever. The said Jos. F. BaA^r having served thr.ee months of nfc ! sentence ami beiuir now prostrated by ? sickness and being subjected to the ad- j ditional torraent of vermin the Grand I Jury feel that the law has been vin di- j cat ed anil that justice will not suffer by the pardon of said Jos. F. .Baker, j nor by the pardon of one Mrs. Faun, ! who was sentenced and imprisoned for the same charge ami for tue same tenn and would ^respectfully and unani? mously recommend the pardon of the ' said parties. Jos. F- Baker and Mrs. Faun, to his Excellency, J. P. liichard son, Governor of South Carolina. The Grand Jury would call atten- | tion also to the fact, that agree-1 I able to the report of the County 1 j Board, the expenses of the County ! for Roads and Bridges for the last i fiscal year was considerably in CK- j cess of previous years, and are of tho i opinion that the County Board un war- i rantnbly expended money and gave i contracts for Ditch and Bridges, pay- j lng for th" same <>ut of tue Treasury, ! where it ought to have been by 'lie' road hands. The attention of the Grand Jury was called to the facti hattie Pigeon holes ? in the County Clerks Office ;;ro all ! hlied'and that more room is needed- ! We recoin mned thatthe County Board : furnish as many layers, such as shall : be designated by tim Clerk as will be ] necessary to einpry Pigeori holes and make room for new papers. The Grand Jury directed the Sheriff to commit to Jail one Hattie Kayne, who is the prosecuting witness in the case of the ! Stats against Paul Davis, and who the j Qrand Jury wish the Solicitor to prose-1 cute for pergury, sae having sworne out a warrant against Paul Davis and now claiming before the Grand Jury that the charge or alligation was false. Several cases of living in adul? tery and of fornication are reported to the Grand Jury but not being satis? fied that they have evidence to convict, have deferred action till next term of Court, by which time they will endea? vor to obtain evidence to warrant prosecution. Respectfully submitted, W. D. SCARBOROUGH, Foreman. A Card from the Board of County Commissioners. SUMTER, S. C., June 6, 1888. To the Board cf County Commissioners : GENTLEMEN : In response to j'our call upon rae, as your legal advisor, for my opinion as to your powers and dunes with respect to the jail, and as to any oversight thereof by you, I reply: That Section 2690 of the revised statutes enacts that the sheriff shall have the custody of the jiil; and if he appoint a jailor to keep it the sheriff shall be liable for bim. By Section 2691 the sheriff who does not live in the jail is required to employ a proper and discreet person as jailor, who shall live within the same. Section 2703 requires the sheriff to report annually to the County Commisssoners the actual condition of the jail, the repairs which may be wanting, and their probable cost. Section 2704 declares it to be the duty of the County Commissioners to furnish at all times . blankets and such other bedding as shall be necessary for prisoners confined in jail; and prisoners confined on a criminal charge shall be provided with at '-"^ast two blankets in the winter season. By Section 602 ypur Board is given juris? diction over roads, highways, terries and bridges, and all matters relating to taxes and disbursements of money for county pur? poses, etc. BytheActof 1886 the sheriff is allowed thirty cents per day for dieting prisoners in jail. The foregoing are all that I can find which throw aDy light on tbe question propounded. My opinion is that, c nstrueing Section 602 with the other Sections referred to above, your functions and duties, in respect to the jail and the prisoners, are limited to repairs of the jail, the need o? which shall have been reported to you by the sheriff, to furnishing blankets and other bedding as prescribed, and paying the fees of the sheriff for dieting the prisoners. The sheriff has the custody of the jail. You are not constituted its visitors or invested with any power to direct or interfere with its internal admiuistration. Your functions seem to be entirely "of a fiscal nature. It would seem to be your duty to furnish the prescribed articles when called on therefor by the sheriff. Yours respectfully, W. F. B. HAYNSWORTH, Attorney for the Board. The undersigned hereby" testify that they have never refused to grant any request made on them by the sheriff for the comfort of the prisoners, or repairs for the jail. We publish the above in reply to the pre sentraeot of the grand jury. Attest "j J. M. Ross, } THOS. V. WALSH, V Tues. J. BAKER, J-Com. Clerk.

THE WORLD BUDGET COMPANY re? spectfully announces to the people of Charleston and South Carolina that its daily and weeklj' newspaper publications will be issued under the company's sole ownership and control from this date. Having arranged for able editorial manage? ment, the aim and purpose of The World-lind ijd Company will be not only to present the lates*, news from ali paris of the earth, but to render public service by fair, impartial criti? cism of mutters of public interest, con? densing the wrong/and asserting and defend? ing the right. For many years a second morning news? paper has been needed in Charleston, ?ts in? telligent populace desired that both sides of every important question should be fairly considered and the opportunity of candid ex* pression be freely given on ali public topics, so that the peuple might be emancipated from thc mischievous supremacy of a single morning publication that is liable, and very apt, to suppress all views at variance with its narrow or selfish policy. Telegraphic and local news of importance wilt be lound in both Thc World and JJudyrt more fa Hy reported than in any other news? paper iss.'ed in this city or State. Our papers will maintain that the p?sent national tarifT founded upon necessity for rev- i enue which no longer exists, should be revised upon a basis of fair trade, thus giving pro? tection to industries that need protection, to the extent that American labor shall not be crippled or brought intojivalry with cheap foreign labor In genera! politics, the newspapers issued by The World-Budget Company will be strictly in accord witb the patriotic tenets of the Democratic party of South Carolina, and the whole country. Having no friends: to conciliate, or enemies to punish, the busings j and eultoiial aims of The World and Budget i will bc to use every proper influence in foster- j ing and augmenting the best interests of this ! city and the state. With these honest, straightforward dccla- j rations, wc solicit the active support of a home constituency which is largely interested . in the establishment *>i progne:VP, sharply edited journals ?hat ure conducted f>?r the benefit of the people of Charleston and South Carolina, and the maintenance of the public j wei fare. ! We shall always seek to faithfully serve j the people, for their discrimination and moral ! support will prove that it is not news alone; ? nor busir.r-ss enterprise, nor even literary ability, that makes success in thc newspaper ? world, it is the recognition hy the people of j an earnest desire to serve them in inc creation I of a moral force that shall Und to the corree- ! tion of abuses and the reform of govern- j mental administrations.
