Of York from issuing bonds in aid Of the
Chester and Lcnoir Narrow Gauge Railroad

KINGS MOUNTAIN MILITARY SCHOOL.
\ catalogue Of the officers and cadets Of
the above institution has just been issued.
The pamphlet sets forth fully the claims of
the school, the course of studies pursued, plan
of instruction, discipline, routine of duties,
and all other features of interest to parents or
guardians having in charge the education of
youths. An interesting historical sketch Of
the school is also appended. Of the merits Of
Kings Mountain Military School, the superior
qualifications Of its accomplished Principal
and able faculty-comprising full corps of
Professors in all the different departments
it is supcrtuous here to speak. The school
enjoys wel-mcrited distinction for thorough
ness and efficiency, and the high standard of
excellence heretofore reached will be fully
maintained hereafter. The roll numbers
sevcnty-ive students during the past scholas-
tic year. from all sections of this State, and
from other States, which sufficiently indicates
not only the prosperous condition Of the
school, but the esteem in which it is held, and
the reputation it has attained abroad. The
school-year of 1874 will begin on the End of
February and end on the 3Oth of November.
For catalogue, or other information, address
Col. y. Coward, Principal, Iorkvillc, sc.
THE CITIZENS SAVINGS BANK.
In the United States Circuit Court in Co.
lumbia, on Monday last, an order was granted
by Judge Bryan, upon the petition of Rev.
William Martin, President, placing the Citi-
zcns' Savings Bank in voluntary bankruptcy.
The affairs of the bank are now in the hands
of Register Seabrook, of Charleston. In the
Columbia Phunir, of Tuesday, we find the fol-
lowing in relation to the Bank
CITIZENS SAVINGS BAHK.--We refer our rea-
lrr> to the card Of the attorneys and solicitors of
the Citizens Savings Bank, in explanation of the
motion made and granted yesterday bv the court
! for voluntary bankruptcy. The bank has been
placed in charge of Col. i. NJ. Scahrook, Regis
Ter. 1t is the intention of the bank officers, in
few days, to makea statement t" the drpositors
and submit to them proposition, which, ifacccp-
ted, will, it is iSthought, protect them from any loss
whatever. In the meantime it will he the part of
wisdom in the lepoSitOrS to retain possession of
their claims, till they learn and fully consider the
| proposed arrangement. The SynpathicS Of the
community here and, we may say, of the whole
State are with the hank in this difficulty, and OPP
posed to the steps taken by the combination of
parties referred to in the card, whose object.
alleged. is to advance their individual ends, ut the
rxlrnsr of the interests of tho deroSit"rs. We
regret the necessity which. it is plain, exists for
this extraordinary action, because the bank had
become of great usefulness to the State 1T
lar"- encouraging economy and offering facilities
for the transaction of business. We trust that the
lrpnSnr> will cordially ro-nprratc with the otli
GERS in their rlllcivor To restore ii to its former
status, protect its creditors from loss, and rontin-
lie it in its career of usefulness.
The card to which the Ph4nir refers, may
be found in our advertising columns.
