SCoLDING NOT AN INDIcTABLE OFFENsE IN
South CAGoLINA.-A woman named Nancy
Stevenson, was recently put on trial before the
court at Anderson, S. C., as common scold,'
when her counsel moved to quash the indict-
ment on the ground that it was not an indctable
ofiense in South Carolina. After hearing argu-
ments on both sides, the court ordered the in
dictment to be quashed, "on the ground that it
is not an indictable offense, that portion of the
common law relating to this otiense being OBJ
soete in South Carolina" The Anderson Ga
zette remarks
"As fax as was ascertained, this is the third
indictment that has ever been preferred in the
United States for the oiensc of scolding, and
we hope it will be the last for it is invading one
of the dearest rights of woman and is, in TRUTH
an abridgement of the liberty of speech in the
fairer sex. The tongue is their principal weap-
on both of defense and of ofense, and as Irving
has very iacetiously said 1T is the only edged
tool that becomes sharper by constant use.'"

DIsINrEREsTED LOVE. Yes man has a
strong yeorning for disnterestcd love; much
more so than woman. Once convince a man
that you love him truly for himself-for his own
self-independcntly of riches, rank, station, po-
sition, or any of the thousand and one advan-
tagcs he may be possessed of-only, say, make
him feel that and you need not be very nice
about the mode in which you go to work. Men
are as voracious as boa constructors; they will
swallow almost any quantity of hattery, provid-
ed always that it be offered at the right time
1t won't do to fiatter one man in the presence
of another. BE careful of that but let wo-
man take the lucky moment, seize upon the
right opportunity, and she may make man
ay, in spite of all his wondrous sense and rea-
son--her slave for life.-Mlicem NerWe

Some of the politicians are talking up Pierce
for president more and more The arrange
ment is understood to be that he is to have no
votes in the Charleston convention until Doug

used each other up, when a sudden rally is to
be made upon the ex-president backed up by
the New England and some of the southern
delegations. A Concord IN. H. authority,
claimed to be good, says that Col Forney is Sc
cretly at work for Pierce, and that the Pierce
delegates may be relied upon to defeat Doug

A STATUE OF SENATOR BENToN.-Horatio
Stone the sculptor has matured and modelled
his design Of statue of the late Thomas Hart
Benton as he often appeared before the Ameri-
can Senate, 1t is JUS and appropriate that the
form and semhance of Mr. Benton should be
thus preserved for future generations, whose
estimate of his character and influence in the
era of his activity will increase with the lapse
of years. Mr. Stone has been happy in his con-
cepton of this faithful image of the man and
truthful portraiture of the spirit that was in
him. 1t is the statesman and the orator who
stands before us, commanding in appearance,
and natural and unconstrained in position and
bearing. We are informed that it has been de-
signed in pursuance of the purpose of the artis
to produce colossal statue for the adornment
of some appropriate place in the city of st.

With pleasure, and . satisfaction, o. We
believe was felt by oil who were present and
Witnessed our County Fair, We give at this
time brief account OF what we observed.
The general good feeling manifested by

appreciated by the managers, who did their
utmost to make the best possible appearances.

them to take to the Fair what they otherwise
would have done, was we'll worthy the pride
OF our county, which is bound, in this fea-
ture as well as others, to be the Emnire
County Of Iowa.
The show of horses, though not SO many
Of them present as expected, was excellent.
10 fact some difficulty was felt in convincing
tho crowd that the two year Odds were no,
three year Odds, which their appearance Ger.
tainly indicated TO the beholder. There were
several 6ns specimens Of Morgan stock.
but, - attested By the awards and orr own
opinion, vas eclipsed BY other breeds. Thera
