The manager of the branch line of the Postal Telegraph Company, from this city to Camden, was in town to-day, and from bim a good many interesting facts were ascer? tained concerning the line from this city and the manner in which the Sumter office will beconducted. From,wbat he said, much of it not being intended for publication, it was made much plainer than ever that the estab? lishment of a postal office io this city will be of great benefit to the business men and all the business interests of the city. The Postal Telegraph Company piys. particular atten? tion to commercial business, and has no coo- 1 nection with the railroads or railroad busi? ness, and commercial business bas the first , consideration at a'l times. In every city and town where the Postal Telegraph Company has an office, it bas become the favorite with ; business men, who give it their patronage. Their business is already large, but is grow? ing ata rapid rate each year. The line from this city to Camden will be about thirty-two miles in length-perhaps a < little more or less-and will be built of the best materials. The work is being pushed to completion as rapidly as possible, and the manager gives the assurance that the .line will be ready for business on or before De cember I. The office will be fitted up in the ? front part of the office occupied by the A. C. Phelps Co., and will have all of the latest improvements for handling the business in an accurate and rapid manner. At first, there will be one expert operator in charge of the office, and as soon as the business of tbe office shall require it be will be given assistants. It is an inflexible and invariable regula? tion of the Postal Company that no one save the operator shall enter the private office-not even another operator not coo- [ ne'Cted with the office. This regulation is en? forced thus rigidly to prevent the contents of the telegrams becoming known to others than the operator and sender. Even the messen? ger boys are not permitted to know the con? tents of telegrams received and sent. When a telegram i3 received for delivery, it is given to the messenger boy in a sealed envelope, and be has to opportunity of learning the contents of the message. These regulations will be strictly enforced io the management of the Sumter office, the manager laying especial stress on this point. The erection of the line to. this city was undertaken at the solicitation of the business men of the city, and tbe office will begin business with a fair share of the patronage of the city, and it is the duty of the people of Sumter to patronize the Postal Company liberally.) - - II mm The ordinance prescribing the regulations of the Board of Health becomes effective oo the 14th instant. On and after that date, no burials will be permitted within the city without a death certificate from a physician and a burial permit from the Health Officer. A compliance with this requirement by un? dertakers and others in charge of interments will preveot confusion and embarrassment. Mr. R F. Whitlock being disturbed Monday night, after retiring, by an unusual noise in the room, got out of bed and began an in? vestigation. When he looked under his bed a bare-beaded and bare-footed negro man, holding a pistol ic bis bend was discovered. Mr. Whitlock went into the room adjoining to get bis pistol, and the negro utilized the time to escape. Mr. Whitlock shot at ?be fleeing negro through the door, but did not bit bis mark. Mr. L. S. Carson bad an experience with a j burglar at his residence on Saturday night that will serve to put others on their guard. Af- ? ter tea Mr. and Mrs Carson locked the house j and walked down the street, where they re? mained a few minutes. When they returned ! they observed that a window on the side of j the house bad been opened and the sash raised. Investigating further, it was dis- ' covered that the person who had entered j through the window had takeu nearly all of i a waiter of apples and oranges that was on a j table in the dining roora, and had taken the j front door key also. Later in the night the j burglar made an attempt to re-enter the house, but was seen and shot at with a pistol j by Mr. T. E. Richardson, who occupied a j roora on the second floor. The negro leaped j from the fence, on which he was standing while endeavoring looper, the window, and I made his escape. He was not hit by the; pistol balls, a3 fur as c<?n be discovered, no ; bloody trail having been left, nor has any i oegro reported to the doctors with a pistol ball in his body. There is no clue to the j' ."dentity of the burglar. On Sunday moro- i Dg a pile'of orange peel was found under tbe house where the burglar had concealed himself after entering the house early in the night. Mr. Carson is of the opinion that the j burglar was frightened out of the house when he returned from down towu, and he then' concealed himself under the house until he thought ail tbe inmates had fallen asleep. It is no exaggeration to say that Pawnee BilTs Historical Wild West and Grand Mexican Hippodrome, which exhibited iti Scranton yesterday, was decidedly the best performance given here for many years, without any exception. The performance was fully up" to what they had promised, and gave universal satisfaction.-Scranton {Pa.) | Eagle. I Another New County. Now that Salem ur Calhoun county is re? garded as H certain'v, other new county Hd vocates are taking heart and are tnovmg for counties of their own. The latest new county scheme is a brand new, spick and span affair that was never heard of nor talked about before. The lat?3t new county in this section of the State is to be formed of that portion of Sumter County lying be? tween the line of the Wilmington, Columbia & Augusta Railroad and the Clarendon line and the adjacent portion of Ciarendon Coun? ty, bounded on the east by Lynches River and on the west by Black River. The exact outlines of the proposed new county are not yet obtainable, if the line3 have been decided upon by those who are working for the estab? lishment of the new county. The informa? tion at hand is to ice effect that a meeting was held io the Beulah sectioo a few days since, at which a large number of the citizens of the territory that seeks to be set off as a new couiity, were present. The meeting is said to have been enthusiastic for the new county, and the bail was set in motion for the creation of a new county and the build? ing of a oew court house town somewhere in the vicinity of Shiloh. If the new county business goes on tbere will be little left of Sumter County, but if the remainder of the 'ounty can stand it this j part of the county will h.ive to get along as best it can, and that will be pretty well, no doubt. The people in and around Lynchburg and Magnolia are in a quandary. Many of them are wholly averse to leaving Sumter county, and when it wa3 proposed io ?ake that sec? tion io as a part of Sa'em county they pre? pared to make a ?ght agaios? being taken out of Sum'er County. They went so far, the writer is informed, as to prepare a peti? tion, which was unanimously signed, and were just waiting for the proper tirae to make an energetic and determined fight against being annexed to the new county, of which Biihopville is to be the county seat. This was che situation uatil the new county movement from below was sprung on them, which was like a bombshell in the camp The petition against Salem county h?s been laid aside, and those who were strong oppo Dents of Salem are now rather more than anxious to become a part and parcel of that county. Sumter county seem.3 to be out of the question for Magnolia and Lynchburg, and since it has become necessary, seemingly, I for them to choose between Salem and the ?till newer county, they find that they have a leaning towards Bi3hopville and ber connty sf Salem. The Salem people are beginning to feel independent and it is not now a question of what territory they can get, but what they will accept. The situation is interesting, to say the least, from an outside point of view, and all of ns over in this section will keep track of the future developments in county formation over on the environs of Lydches River. It is now suggested to Magnolia and Lynchburg that they unite forces and make a bold move for a county of their own. By seizing a goodly slice of the territory wanted by both Salem aud the other county, and taking in a portion of Florence County, a very excellent county would be formed, with a lot of railroad mileage to be taxed. How would Lynchburg County, run on the fol? lowing lines, strike the county builder? All 0f Lynchburg, Mt. Clio, Mayesville and Shiloh townships, ' aggregating 221 square miles, and portions of Swimming Pens and Concord township?, aggregating 60 square miles more. The remainder of the territory named could be taken from Clarendon and Florence Counties, and the deed would be done. There is no better place for a court bouse than on a through line of railroad, which will render it easy of access and con? venient to all who have to go to the court? house towD. Lynchburg and Magnolia should not despair, for this is the floodtide of their opportunity. Let them seize it and they can snap their figurative fingers in the face of Salem and Beulah. . Beulah Chapter R. A. M., after the meet? ing last week, repaired to the Sumter Res? taurant, where a supper was served in honor of Grand High Priest J. T. Barron, who was present. Plates were laid for twenty-five persons, and it is no exaggeration to say that no more elegant informal supper was ever served in this city. All the delicacies of the season were served, and the decorations of the room and table, composed of choice hot bouse and garden flowers and plants, were in keeping with the spread to which the Masons of high degree sat down In addi? tion to the decorations, at each plate tbere was a buttonhole bouquet for the guests. Mr. Carpenter ha3 established his reputation both as a caterer and as aman of aesthetic taste in decoration, tor it is io these little occasions that lies the difference between a common feed and a banquet. Thursday was another big day at the To? bacco Warenouse. There were a large num? ber of sellers present and they had a quantity of fine tobacco on tbe floor. Pudding Swamp I was well represented, both in the number of j sellers and the quantity and quality of the tob?cea they brought. Among those from that banner tobacco section were Goodman and Nelson Gamble, the Players, Coker and others. It is useless to say that the tobacco brought big prices ; Goodman Gamble, as usual, taking the lead. Some of his tobacco sold for $47 oer hundred and another lot for j $39 per hundred. The average price paid for I his entire lot was $24 per hundred. The! average price for the day was very good, and I the sellers were oetter pleased with Sumter 83 ? a tobacco market than ever. -.. - The prettiest lot of writing tablets in the I city at H. G.

The rifle was discharged acci? dentally, the ball lodging in the leg of Howell. The father of the wounded boy came up Main Street in a great state of excitement, looking for a doctor, and the impression was spread abroad that there was indeed but one little negro left to tell the ta'e. Dr. ? Archie China was called in and dressed the wound, which is not considered serious. The rifle wa9 loaded with a Sobert cartridge and unless the ball had struck the boy in some peculiarly vital spot, it was next to impossi? ble to h-.ve injured him seriously. ----: "A Well Deserved Tribute to a Popular Line."

There was not a single arrest made circus day by the police of this city, although there wes a crowd estimated at ten to fifteen thousand. This is a matter for congratula? tion, as circus days in former years have usu? ally been attended by a great deal of drunk? enness, and the arrests have numbered from thirty to forty. One of the police force is authority for the statement that only one drunken man was seen on the streets, and that it is no uncommon occurrence for this particular individual io be drunk. There was no disturbance or disorder of any sort, as far as can be learned, during the day or night. The conspicuous absence of drunk? enness and disorder with such an immense crowd congregated in the city, is attributa? ble to two things, te closiog otb the dispen? sary and scarcity of blind tiger liquor in the city. Had the dispensary remained open, the carnival of drunkenness and disorder that prevailed io Snartanburg several weeka ago on circus day would have been repeated here, beyond the shadow of doubt. The thanks of the people of Sumter are due the State Board of Control for their action in or? dering the dispensary closed, and it is to be hoped that the Board will close the dispen? sary again on the 15th instant, on which date Pawnee Bill's Wild West Show will give an exhibition here.
