THE CASE OF SAPAUGH.

The case of Elijah Ross Sapaugh was final
ly disposed of in the United States Circuit
Court, at Charleston, last week. 1t will be
remembered that he is one of the parties ar
rested in 1871, and tried before Judges Bond
and Bryan, on the charge of murder and sew
eral other counts, and that this trial was one
of the test cases, the Judges being divided in
their opinion as to the Jurisdiction of the Cir
cult Court to try case of murder, which opln-
ion was certified to the Supreme Court Of the
United States, where it has been ever since,
Sapaugh, in the meantime, remaining in the
Yorkville Jail. Although Reverdy johnson
has argued the case twice before the Supreme
Court that tribunal has failed to pass upon
the question of constitutionality, and having
evaded the points raised, Attorney General
Williams, short time ago, instructed Dis
trict. Attorney Corbin to dismiss the proceed
iugs below, and accordingly on the arraign-
ment of Sapaugh last week, Mr.. Corbln moved
to nolle pros the case as to FIVE of the counts,
and to pass sentence on the remaining count,
which charges intimidation and violation Of
the enforcement act. Counsel for the prison
er resisted the motion, on the ground that the
case was Supreme Court proceeding, and
should be acted upon there. This argument
was oyerruled and the Court found the prison
er guilty of the count pressed for trial, and
he was sentenced to one years imprisonment
and to pay fine of 800.

CHRISTMAS.

As the ENQUIRER greets its numerous
readers on this Christmas Eve, III thousand
homes, loving hearts-happy or sad-are
filled with thoughts Of kindness and sympa-
thy and love. Busy hands are weaving offer
ings for the morrow; busy feet are Fastening
homeward to cheerful 6resides; and childish
curiosity, on the eve of "great expectations"
is manifest in the eyes of the little ones,
while picturing in their imaginations the ex-
pected visit of Santa Claus. 1t is the season
of mirth and merry-making- of pleasant asso-
ciations-of domestic charms and CHEEKY
thoughts-joyous gatherings and fresh impul-
ses of good will, waking us up to renewed in
terest in life, and filling our hearts-even the
saddest of us-with geeful animation.
Like many other festal occasions, Christmas
has double origin. AS day set apart IN
commemoration of the birth of Christ, its first
observance dates back to the close Of the Sec
ond century. There has been, however, much
controversy as to the true date Of Christ's
birth and although the 25th day of Decem-
Der was at last decided upon as the day of Gel
ebration, it is generally conceded that it does
not correspond with the actual date of the
Sayiour's nativity The 25th Of December

There was partial insurance on the property
destroyed. The loss is estimated at 100000.
The Washington correspondent of the
Ne,us and Courier, under date Of the 18th in
stant says: "A curious case of tit for tat was
developed here to-day. Samuel Lee, the op-
ponent of Rainey in the late election, holds a
position on the police force at the Capitol.
Sergeant.at-arms Ordway received letter
from Rainey, to-day, protesting against Lees
being retained in that position. This was
shown to Lee, who thereupon gave notice of
his intention to contest Rainey's seat"
In the cases Of the Richmond and Dan
Vile Railroad Company against the County
Treasurer of Greenville, and the same against
the County Treasurer of Spartanburg, the

exempt from taxation. The same court has
ordered peremptory madamus to be issued
against the County Commissioners of Pickens
County, to compel them to levy tax to pay
the interest due on the Air Line bonds of that
