The greater part of the tobacco came from the Puddin' Swamp sec? tion of Sumter and Clarendon Counted, but other sections of this county were well repre? sented. Tbe bulk of the tobacco was of low aod medium grades bot there was a number of piles of pretty bright tobacco. The prices were good and the eel lera were ali well pleased. For the better grades the following prices were noted on the tickets: 26, 18c, 17$e, 13c, 12c, iUc, loge, 10c, and for the other grades the prices varied from 8b down to 3$, while for scrap 1.90 to 80 was paid. Several of the farmers have beeo selling on other markets and tbe sale Friday convinced tbem that Sumter is tbe best market with wbicb they are acquainted.

Fri? day tbe remainder was sold at the Sumter warehouse and be received 10?c for it.

The com? petition is so strong that few of them stay as they are looking for cheap tobacco, aod it is not to be bad io Sumter, tbe regular order boyera taking al! that comes at the top of the market.

At 10 30 o'clock the streets were deserted and everybody was at borne except the drivers of the delivery wagons, who, themselves, bad completed their rounds be? fore ll. SO and were off duty fof tbe week at least one hour earlier than heretofore. The plan meets with general approval and the merchants-, as well as the clerks, are all well pleased to finish their work and get home before midnight. The action of the merchants in agreeing to close their stores cannot be,too highly com? mended and it now becomes the duty of tbe pnblic to aid them to live up to the agree? ment. No one should put off purchasing goods until Saturday night, unless tbey wish to ma&e it harder for the merchants to close at 10 o'clock. The merchants have done their part, and the promptness with which they closed Saturday night is evidence that they are ready and wifing to ?close early. If tbe pnblic will do as much as the mer? chants there will never again be stores open until 12 o'clock Saturday night.

The Killing of Shedd Hesse. The aegro who was found dead ia Rocky Bluff swamp Monday morning soon after the 8 o'clock train passed, was found to be Sbedd Reese, a negro well known around this city, when Coroner Moses went out to hold the inquest. The body was first seen by Whiteford Player, who was crossing the swamp on the railroad at the time the train passed. He got off the embankment anti! tbe train passed and then proceeded on bis way. When be came to the trestle be saw a bat and coat lying by the side of *be track and lying face down in the water the body of a man. He came on to town and reported tbe find to Sheriff Pierson. When Coroner Moses reach? ed the swamp tbe body was etti! in tbe water, and be bad it removed and proceeded to bold an inquest. Os tbe back of Reese's bead a scalp wound several inches long was discov? ered, but tbe skull was not fractured. There were no other wounds on the body except a few bruises of a minor nature. From the situation of the body and other circumstances it was concluded that Reese was lying or sitting by the side of the track or on tbe ends of the cross ties OD the trestle, either drink or asleep, wheo the train passed, and was knocked into the water and drowned while still unconscious from the blow on the beck of bis head. The verdict of tbe j a ry was in accordance with the facts developed and the natural inference to be deduced from them.
