Trial Justice Removed. We find the following in the (iarleslon World of to-day, in its Columbia correspon dence: "The governor to-day removed John H.

Mahoney, a trial justice for Clarendon county. Mr. Mahoney is charged with drunkenness and general neglect of duty. -The governor has not yet appointed any successor to Mr. Mahoney." New Cotton.

The first two bales of cotton sold this year in Sumter were raised in Clarendon. Mr. B. D. Griffin, of Pinewood, sold one bale weighing 500 pounds for 7 cents, Fri day, Augus.t 14th; and Daniel Harvin, col.

This is the earliest date a bale of new cotton has ever been sold in Manning. A Two-Headed Snake. Last Saturday, at the Sprott Guards re' union, a negro came on the grounds with ground-rattle snake about ten inches long, that he bad caught a short time before.

ThE snake had two perfectly formed heads, with two mouths, four eyes, etc. The heads arated about the neck in a very natura: manner. When disturbed it would thrusi out its forked tongues, sometimes both al one time, and again one at time. Each head seems to have been distinct and per. -feet.

It was a great curiosity, and attracted attention. Survivors' Meeting, Co. H. 'The regular annual re-union of the sur vivors of Company 5th Regiment S. C.

Prisoner Escapes from Jail. Last Saturday night John Lewis, colored, escaped from jail. The jailor as usual went up stairs late in the afternoon to lock the prisoners in their cells. After dark he had occasion to go back up stairs to give some medicine to a prisoner. Lewis knew this planned his escape.

He took from the fire place a piece of scantling and wrenched the cell door open. He then took his position behind the door and as the jailor passed in Lewis passed out. This is the first escape from Sheriff Brad'ham's custody, and he is anxious to have him captured. He will pay fifteen dollars for his apprehension and once he gets him 'in his hands again he says he will hold him. Although the condition of the jail is such that almost any prisoner can escape, and the grand jury has reported the matter several times, yet no attention has been: paid to the report.

Summerton News. SUMMhEETONc, S. Aug. are hay ing genuine August weather, and rair enough to satisfy the most cLronic grumb ler. The cotton crop is very good in this sec tion, and if the rain holds up picking wil commence this week.

The corn crop is no quite so good. The present price for cot ton makes things look pretty blue. I was told by a responsible party that new cottor sold in Sumter last week for 4 cents. It wa: undoubtedly a very inferior article. Dr.

Dunn, of Sumter, has the contract, and the building will be plaeod on the lot adjacent the dwell- ing of J. Alsbrook, Esq.

Mrs. C. Nettles Alsbrook will be principal. Delayed Train. The nail train due at this place at I 8:20 a.

did not reach here vester- day until nearly five o'clock vester- day afternoon. The cause of the de- lav was a bad wash-out on the North- t( eastern railroad between Bonneau's and St. Stephens. The track was overflowed for three miles, and in several places badly damaged. The break has been repaired, and the train this morning arrived on time.

i Terribly Burned. Mrs. Peggy Holladay, about sixty- 0 tive years of age, who is subject to a epileptic fits, met with a very serious accident week before last at the house 1 of her son, Mr. Jeff Hollalay, who lives seven miles east of Manning. Mrs.

Holladay was alone ini the Si house, and it is supposed was parch- 9 ing coffee in the kitchen when a fit ti came over her and she fell into the fire. When Mr. Holladay arrived home he found his mother lying on 0 the piazza of the house, several yards from the kitchen, unconscious, and with both legs horribly burned. a Dr. L.

W. Nettles, of Foreston, and Dr. W. M. Brockinton, of Manning, met yesterday at Mr.

Holladay's house in consultation about ampu- a tating one or both of her legs. On t3 examination they found that it would be necessary to amputate both legs. one above the knee and the other above the ankle, but as inflamnnation had set in to such an extent, and be- 6 ing satisfied that the unfortunate rE lady could not stand the shock, they decided not to perform the operation. i i It Foreston News. Willie Hodge, a white boy about 1 ten or twelve years old, died at his sc home at Foreston last Monday.

As he had been pushed'off the depot to platform a week before by a negro boy with whom he was playing, it was thought his death was the result of this fall, and an inquest was de- hi manded. Trial Justice Canty sum- it moned a jury of inquest, and an au- jo topsy was held, after which a verdict of death from natural causes was ren- dered. 01 A case of assault was tried yester- ta day at Foreston before Trial Justice ta Canty. John Wilson, who is about fourteen years old, was attackd on the street by Cadet Tom Sparks, who 84 is a year or two older, and was given a beating. One of the witnesses lso testified that he saw a pair of knucks in Sparks's possession.

As the case had a pretty ugly appearance, the trial justice fined young Sparks fifty ti dollars or thirty days. An appeal was taken from the decision of the trial justice. It is also said there will probably be one or two other indictments, one of which will be for car- ei rying concealed weapons. Mr. Hudgins still defies the State to show better cotton than is made around Foreston.

V. Beauty and Chivalry of Foreston. FoEs-ros, August Monday even- ing 17th the merry-makers of Fores- t( ton, with ardent zeal, bent on enjoyment, assembled in the hospitable parlor of Mr. tC J. J.

Bragdon, who, with the genial Mrs. Bragdon, understands perfectly the art of making young people happy. 3' Such an array of beauty is seldom found I in any room. The ladies, radient in smiles, brightened the "tout-ensemble" with the splendor of their eyes. We will attempt at description of some of the dresses and jew- h1 els worn on the occasion.

L1 Conspicuous in black satin trimmed with white lace, was the sparkling and vivacious to Miss Corn Hudgins, pearls. Miss Gussie Barnes wore pale blue silk trimmed with gold arrow-heads, gold and jet. Miss Ethelind Bragdon was a fair flower, it in white sarah, plamn gold.t Miss Jaaie Land was very lovely in cream colored satin trimmed with bewildering i tints of blue, pearls. pi Miss Marie Brunson wore a beautiful tl: mourning combination of black and white silk, diamonds. Miss Blanche Walter fascinated the be- h.

holder in a suit of fawn-colored silk, with a cluster of fuschias in her hair, opals. th Miss Pauline Drose wvore a quiet silver- of grey silk with a heavy spray of crimson roses, rubies. Misses Bragdon and Olive Hudgins re wore plain white and flowers. th The gentlemen were in full evening suits it of drap d'ete, and looked very handsome. tI Cadets Sparks, of Davis College, N.

and Cannon, of Porter Academy, Charleston, 0f sandwitched the black suits with their uni- forms. Ta It was an evening of rarest pleasure. th If we were a marrying man Foreston is the place we would choose a wife. But, alas, our heart is destined to die a thousand deaths under the torture of feminine cruel- Si ty. Cupid will throw his shafts about.

This evenirg's gayety will, we presume, ta end the festivities of the season, and be the oi preface to the Lent of a protracted meeting. We tendered our acknowledgements to jo our kind host and his graceful wife, and sI went home happy, singing "From an Aug- ust evening party, I was seeing Nellie ti home." Burros. fo Li The peculiar enervating effect of summer weather is driven off by Hood's Sarsaparilla, a which "makes the weak strong." tla Packsville News. Picssvn.rn, Aug. farmers of this section, in spite of the many rains, tI have succeeded in gathering their fodder, and now are beginning the work of cotton ei picking.

We hear them grumbling on all sides about low prices of cotton, and many of them have decided to plant less cotton end more grain in the future. 0o The Rev. Mr. Wells preached in the Bap- ist church here Sunday afternoop. It was LIt his first sermon here since his vacation, and was appreciated by all who heard it.

A protracted meeting will begin here at an early 'J date. Mr. Rice, a recent graduate of Fur- el men University, will assist Mr. Wells, and a a good meeting is anticipated. Little Doltan Broadwiay, sen of B.

P. Broadway, died last Thursday of bilious fe- ver. Mr. Broadway is himself very ill. He suffers from sunstroke.

Notice of ti lace of meetin' wfas published in 1f 'IMEs, and, as was expected, a large nir er of people who knew how Mr. Sprott c1 rtains, gathered. We were among the first to arrive, and as indeed a handsome picture that in ur view as we drove up: the hospitalb ansior, shaded by huge old oaks, with gentleman, his estimable wife, and umber of grand-children on the piare; ic "grand old mnan" held in one hand assive gold-headed cane that was presen 1 to him by the Sprott Guards, as a take their appreciation for his many kin -ts toward themai in war and in peace, an ith the other he would grasp the hands is guests, giving each a warm shake, at ich a welcome as can only be given by arolina gentleman of the old school. veral hours after our ar, val, people froi and near were gathiering, and while si ng on the spacious piazza watching they approached, we were stru-k wit beauty of the surroundings.

In fro 'the yard is a magnificent field of lidn: on the right another field planted i eas, for forage; on the left corn; immined in front of the house stood three st tel 'oats and hay; at.d the place was su with a frame of beautiful woot nd.

One incider ould bring up another, and while ere fraught with tear-fetching sadnes! id even some were full of horror, other Ld their bright side, and when relate old countenances would light up wit y.

One of the incidents related was how ficer had jestingly tested the honesty ie of his commiand. The officer had ol: ined for the man a bomb-proof position king him away from the scene of whiriDn illets and death, and had placed him in th dinary department. One day the offiec id to his chaplain that he was going st -'s honesty by telling him that if not send him an extra ration he ake him give up his position and go int The chaplain begged the officer nc subject his man to such a great tempt. Dn, that man was naturally weak, and the te temptation to steal an extra ration out of the way of danger was so gren at few could withstand it. The ollicei had his mind made up, and gc ig out to the cooking department, he call I his man out and took a walk with hin atting on a serious air, he said: position you now hold is free from dan and one where you have a decided at ntage over those in the field: you alway ve something to eat at your coiman( ow, this position you hold under my ay yintment, and you are under obligation me for it.

I want you to hold it, an ill keep you in it, providing you consci do as I wish." The officer now lowerin is voice so no one else could hear, said will retain you in this place of safetyi yu will slip me each day an extra ration. he words had hardly escaped from the off r's lips, when the man indignantly I from him, and in a voice loud enoug: be heard a quarter of a mile, repeated lf dozen times that he would do no sue: ing, and that he would shoulder his mu: and go to the front rather than consen any such arrangement. The man wa king so loud tl'tt the officer whisperedt to hush, but it did no good; the indig ition of the man had been aroused, andi as only after the officer assured him thn was all a joke, wvould the man consen remain in the position. Another incident was told of a certai: eating fourteen ears of corn for sui r. The veteran said it was not so, for time referred to he only ate thirteel but aaer eating them he was still hut y.

He said he would have eaten mor ad it not given out. At about one o'clock Col. Hi. L. Blenbovr company's first captain, and presider 'the Survivor's Association, called th: to order under the shade of one of th ammioth oaks in the yard.

The day was very warm, bat the heat di ot prevent the day being one of gri leasure to those present, and just befoi as wve held upl a glass of lemtonad -e felt like saying to Mr. Sprutt, in the hi age of Joe Jeffierson, "Here's to yoy ealth, your wife's lth, and all your fan may you all live long and prosper.

L. A. Mr. George R. had been asked ave a speech ready for the re-union of ti prott Guards, but for somie reason lie ot called on.

It wvas afterwarrds haul us with the request that we publishi is as follows: Farrsos As) 'F re-union of the Sprit Guard omrales. has al ways beeni and wil a lwa: a pleasure, ideked, to me, for theyafr the opportunity to meet (eh other, ake the land, and to with ther. It is a great to re-call lavs when it was there is war ini o1 utd, and when we donned the grey ar cent forth to meet in: iaitle the hated 'ri rD invaders. It is a lltlme to we went, forth to enmag. hat long and unequal contest in deifec he rights of our country; yea, and to he world see we were free mren aind Co: Confederate soldier is a title we shall always LI- be proud to own.

Our re-unions affords us the opportunity to relate to one another our our sufMrings, anl the noble terifices maio during the days that tested 11ien's valor, in defence of the rights of our country, as God gave us to understand those igihts. Comradts, we were then. and are patriots. We were not traitors, rebls, and eonspirat irs, as our enemies would have it appear. Tho man who dare brand the Confederate soldiers as traitors, rebels, and conspirators, is nothing iore nor less than a narrow miroh-d, St1id fool.

and doesn't know what he talks abiout. He has never lIarned the d-finition of the words. With all their misrepre(entations, there ill. be one indisputable fact they will never b- able tn Yankees confronted itl noblest army that was ever marshalled on this planit," and, comrades, it will be a lpride to us to know the Sprott Guards 1 formed a part of that grand-the grandest of all airmies. Wc contended and fough: for a principe, a constitutional principle, the ri'ht of self-goverament, and we never ceased to battle for that principle every free man hol-, so dear, the right of self-govern" ment, till further resistance would have )f simply been madness, and would only have added gr-oter devastation and ruin to our noble and loved Southland.

a Coirales, we all remember that for more than hilf the tiie of that great struggle. the arim of the Confederate States was -0wnd-J with success, and many brilliant vitoie lerched upon our banners, but was prolonged, and the b.ginning of the fonrth year, it culi very plOanly be seen that from. thenceT fut i wa is to be a question simply of endurance on the part of the gallant South, 2and on the ')th of April, 1865, the limit of endurance was reached, and our gallant armies had yield tie unequal struggle they Imd so nobly sustained against overwhelmr in-, numbers and unlimited resor-ces, and to submit to all the humiliations incident to a capitulation. On that day, comrades, the starry Southern cross, the flag of our country, the flag we bad so much learned to A a love, the flag we had followed and defended s' long and so nobly, the flag so many nod ble and patriotic hearts throbbed their last throb amid the storm of battle in defence of, was furled forever, and it was whispered, "The war is over." And now in conclusion, comrades, I take the liberty of returning.lie thanks of the surt vivors of the Sprott Guards to the fair ladies who have spared no pains to make this reunion a happy and pleasant one to us. We assure theni they 1ave succeeded, and our i prayer will ever be, God bless the noble women of our Southland, and may He ever have them in His care and keeping.

Ws We also return thanks to the venerable, a patriotic citizen and Christian getftleman, Capt. Joseph Sprott, who delights so much to honor the survivors of the Sprott Guards, and who contributes so much to make the occasion of their reunions pleas- ant and happy, and we sincerely trust his life may be spared for many years to come, and that his latter years may be the most happy and pleasant of his life. We trust that when the survivors of the rott 0 Guards have had their last re-union on 0 earth, and when the last survivor has answered the last roll-call, may we each and tall have never-ending re-union in that bright land above the skies, and "drink from the waters of that river that eternally flows by the throne of God."
