The price of a pew in wanyl csses is said to equal, if it does not exeed, the annual hoase reut of a family; and even a single sitting is often expentive as to put an eligible phee beyond the reach of a man moderate means.

that of last year. It is related that the postm.aister of Mfonticello, recently performed -the- feat of reading a letter without hkearing its contents. An old woman who had never been to school got a letter one day and asked the post-mnaster to read it for her. She did not want him 'to hear it, took a wad of cotton out of her pocket and stuffed his- ears with it. She then had him read the letter in a low voice, and was perfectly satisfied that the reader could not lear a word of it.

This is repoit-ed as a.late occurrence; but it is one of those things that used to happen (in newspapers) when the of us were boys. All doubts about the authenticity of the 3Mecklenburg Declaration of Independencie anterior to' the American eneral Revolutian may be dismissed. Bancroft wrote in 1848 to Gov. Swain, of North Carolina, that he had found a copy of the 3lecklenburg Deelkration of Independence in the Brit-ish State paperoffice, and says the first account of "the extraordinary resolves by the. people of Charlotte Town, urg was sent over to England by Sir James Wright, 'then Governor of Georgia, in a letter of the 29th of June, 1775.

The newspaper thus transmitted is still and Courier. An ld woman bad3 her daughter good by in the Rochester depot, sayir': -It isni't likely I will ever see you again-i'm getting so old."

At the first station -she got out and returned to Rochester. A very interesting discovery has lately been made on the Esquiline Hill, Rome. Not far from the walls of Ro'me at the period of the the workmen have uncovered a solid wall covered with votive inscriptions, in whieh an allusion is made to the oftJupiter, hitherto unknown, and the samec of a city is mentioned nbeard of before. The greatest part of these votive iuscriptions appear to been niode by soldiers of the Fifth and Sixth Legion, which were probably eneatr ped in "Ct struia Pretorium." Other inscriptions appear to belong to niative citizens of Dahniatia. The excavations will continue till this wall, probably forming part of a temnple to Jupiter.

Judge Reed, in his charge to the 3rand Jury of Orangeburg County, is so explicit that there is no mistakiI. hi: intention to see that justice is metced so far as it rests with him). His is worthy of imitation. and we CUu1un1end the extracts taken from his remarks to the careful att'ention of all: cuntleaevq ofth' (randuI JIry: As a granid inquest'of County, and a very material part of the you have very high and responsible i to dischare.Amongst them, and first in order, it is your duty to pass up(ai the bills of indictment that may be giv6n you by the solicitor. In addition to passing upon these matters there are other important duties, and exercising thew with intelligence and vigilance you yU might be of great service to your county.

You come, or are supposed to come. from all parts of the country, and are acquainted with the condition of things generally throughout your territory. You are presumed to be acqaainted with the Public necessities of the county generally, and it is not only your privilege but your duty 'o inquire jnto the administration of the law generally throughout the county, and to relort the offenders, if there be any. These prosecutions that are brought into court by informers very frequently originate in some sort of malice, or ill will; it is not very often that they are brought to promote the public good. The office of an informer is somewhat an odious one, and persons are slow to prosecute unless stimulated by some private, and, very generally, by a personal aad improper motive.

Hence the higher offences known: to our laws are very frequently unnoticed, and the worst offenders go unwhipped of justice.There are, in some couaunities, a class of offenders against the public law who are possessed of boldness and hardihood as to make them a terror to the country generally, and individuals hesitate very long in to bring such meu to justice. The grand jury is the tribunal to take hold. of that sort of thing. There is no personal responsibility 'on you as body, such as wouid be upop an individdal who commences the prosecution of such high-handed offeiders.You represent the country; and the country stands ready to carry out your behests and to protect you. But more than that.

Whilst the individual prosecutor, takes the burdeu, of becoming a public prosecutor for the public benefit, what you do is done in your jury-room and in secret. You will remember the terms of the oath that each one of you have taken; it is very material: "You shall diligently inquire and 'true presentiment make of all such matters and things as shall be given you in charge." The solicitor has given you these bills; I give you other matters. "The State's counsel, your fellows' and your own, you -shall well and truly keep secret." Witnesses that are sent before you to testify, whatever he or she may say to in regard to your duty, is the State's counsel. You arc to keep secret whatever transpires in your juryroom; hence you may become the prosecutors of great offenders, and it is yur duty-to do so. If you know of any man who has viola.od the law and who is a terror to the community, it is your duty to communicate his name to your fellows, and if, upon inqury, you' are satisfied that the allegation is well founded, it is your duty to pYesent.

him. Tcu are, however, to present no man for envy, hatred or. malice. Such motives should niot enter into the jury box. But you are to present all truly and according to the best of your knowledge.

It is your duty particularly to inquire into the conduct of your public officers. Beginning with the clerk of the court and your sheziff, you will investigate their conduct. Your attention will also be directed to the county treasurer and auditor; not only with reference to the present incumbents, but also to those who proceded them, and present any malpractice or neglect of' duty, without regard to man's whether high or low, whatever my be their status. If they have been guilty of violating the Ilaw, they must be brought to justice with a view that they might prove pepetual examples to all. These remarks apply most especially to the county conmmissioners.

They are charged with very responsibe dutics in very many respects, and in some of the counties they have been found grossly derelict, and are 'now reaping the reward they so richly deserve. I do not know whether such is the case in your whether they have been faithful over little things with which they are charged. If so, let them be made rulers of many things; but if they have been derelict and squandered your mione, I charge you to ferret it out and present them to the court. You are able to grapple with the lion while an individual cannot, and you will find the Court willing to- sustain you in every effort to reform the administration of the law Iin Orangeburg County. The school comissoner is a very important offier.

Hie is the agent thiroughi whom the ignorance which prevails in your community, and which I have found in the jury-box during the last extra term of Court of Com mon Pleas to an emnistt degree, is to be remedied, and many ot your citizens become better q1ualfed to sit as juror-s than now. D)uring the term I speak of there were only eight out of thirty jurors who were able to read and write, and some of them -only to a limited extent. That is an unfortunate state of and can never be remedied but by the are furnishiing lairge sums of money and placing it in the hands of these commissioners to be expended for that purpose. If your school commissioner has squandered the funds entrusted to him, he has been guilty of a hih 'dereliction of duty. Comning, down to officers of a lower grade, the trial justices are men with whom the to do.

The practice was without doubt one of the serious obstacles in the way vu of the success of the society, and that re- it was not sooner discovered seems Id strange. The waning interest in the Fair is proof enough that the horse to racing was objectionable, and we doubt ce very much, had lit not "appeared to the ad directors that a sentiment was shown lie by certain influential patrons," in opnd position, as expressed by the Unionin- Herald. that the next meeting would lit prove a very small affair.

It is said that there were lie at least twenty thousand visitors from ne abroad who individually and collective.re ly contributed to make the occasion one ed which would be long remembered.

It is, is gratifying to know that what with he the firing of cannon, the marching of ad immense processions, the prancing of )0- steeds, and the confusion natural to an Ws affair of such magnitude, only two at accidents are reported; the one hapre ok pened to Private Williams, gunner No. o1 of the Raleigh artiller, who had his d- right hiand so badly mutilated by the of the gun as to make amis putaioin necessary, and the other to he Mr. Squire, of Columbia, whose leg was injured by striking against a stepaw ping stone. Such meetings are calcure- lated to, and will do great good to the en common country in b)ringing about betes ter and kindlier feelings between those or who stood on different sides in the past -r struggle.

In 1851 he was elected to Congress, and in 1856 he was are chosen Vice-President of the United m- States, under Mr. Buchanan.

In 1860 lie was one vf the candidates of the oDemocratic party for the Presidency, d. but was defeated. At the commenceg of the civil war he was a United he States Senator from Kentucky, but joined the Confederates as soon as 1hostilities between the North and he South were commenced. He served nd the Confederate States in the field as r-a ajor-general, and subsequently in President Davis' Cabinet as Secretary "us of War. With the collapse of the mn- Southern cause, Gen.

Breckinridge 11s went to England, where lie remained Li uutil 18609, when he returned to the jUnited States, openly avowing his k- determiination to take no part in pohie tics, a resolution which l'e faithfully n- observed until the day of his death." ald The First International Sunday ek School Convention, which met in Baltina more, Tuesday, sine by die on Thursday night.

THE DESTRUCTION OF THE B. 1.Ts.-A correspondent of the Aug ta ChIronicle and Sentinci writes follows, u.nder date of B3arnwveli, Al 16: At an early hour, before day morning, some party or parties ent ed our town and proceeded to the flee of the Clerk of the Court, whi the boxes containing the ballots deposited for safe-keeping by the Co missioners of an.d took thi out to a pine grove in the edge of town and destroyed them by fire. a shred was left, as I was inform, You remember that the bill providi for the election was introduced byt infamous Leslie and two weeks the day arrived he and his confec rates had bought up every promine and influential colored man int County, with very few exceptions, a since the election they, I believe, gret their actions in the matter. course the citizens of Barnwell villv will be saddled with this outraget proceeding, while they to a man denmn it, as all law-abiding citizE should do.

From the Herald we gather that the May Term of Court now in session, is progressing favorably, with the exception that the jury don't pull together. Judge Moses has expressed a determinationlo push matters and clear the Dockets if Persons interested in the civil business are admonished to be ready-this will be particularly acceptable we have no doubt.

Among the visiting members of the bar from Newberry, are Messrs. C. G. Jaeger and George Messrs. C.

E. Franklin and Elihu Young, two respectable citizens of the County, were arrested on last Tuesday, for the murder of Wade Perrin, about the time of the election trouble in October, 1870. These two men were among the batch of prisoners tried for the same offense before Judge Bond, of the United States Circuit Court at Colunbia, in 1872. which resulted in a mistrial. Mr.

Young was arrested upon the affidavit of Josh Kerns, who alleges to seen the killing, and Mr. Franklin upon the affidavit of Joseph Crews, 'upon information and belief." The two prisoners were carried before Judge Moses, at Chambers, and bailed in bonds of $5,000 each, to answer any bill of indictment hereafter found against them in accordance with said allegation.The caldron still boils. A wheel within a wheel has been discovered by the new superintendent of the Penitentiary, Col. Parwele, some of the inmates of that institution having engaged in the manufacture of nickel pieces from lead taken from the roof of the shoe shop. The material and tools have been captured and all of the operators are being found out.

What will be done with them, is the question. It is not known whether Parker had anything to do with the nickel business. Horrible to rehte, one of the officers of the lost steamer Schiller says that many persons on board at the time the vessel struck were drunk. The merciless waves swept them from the deck in that condition. Thus far one hundred and twenty bodies have been recovered.

FAIRFELD, S. May 20, '75. DEAR HERALD time since I gave you an account of our farms and gardens, b)ut since that time all things have changed. Farming is steadily on the increase. Most of the corn and other productions planted.

Farmers are planting more corn this year than common. Gardens are doing finely. We have had several messes of English peas, turnips, radishes, Irish potatoes, lettuce, raised them with greenbacks. No news of much Farmers are too busy to stop for pie-nlies and fishing parties, but we expect to indlge as soon as crops are laid by. There is an occasional wedding, but not much of a feast with it.

Prayer meetings and debating clubs seem to be the order of the day. Several big meetings with a good many accessions to the churches-mostly young people. Would invite you down, but alas! am not like Jno. Speed, I have no fried chicken to tempt you with. Will close for fear Jalapa corrects me, too.

The Origin of Newspapers. Who thought of the newspaper first It seems to have had its birth in tha hmd of vivid gesture and grav tys sip, Italy, and the first paper of whicl we have any record was a published in Venice by order of th government, inanuscript, as print ing had not thii b--en invented. I was called a which word i a derivative of Gazzera, the name a magpie or chutterer. In the Maq liabechian Library, at -Florence, ar now to be seen thiilty volumes of Vent tian gazzettes, in manuscript. the of which is dated in the sixt(eent century.

The Venetian conscivatoric clung to their script uiter printing wa an accomplished fact. The epoch of the Spanish Armad. in England, was the epoch of the fir Englih newspapers which were prini ed 1588, while the Spanlish lay in the British Chame. Th earliest of these is entitlI The lish Jlercurie. which by aut'horit "was imprinted at London by ho Ilighness's printer.
