III MEMORIAM.

The monument erected over the resting
place of the late Hon. James L. Orr, in the
Presbyterian Cemetery at this place, is one
of the handson,est and most beautiful pieces
of sculpture in the upper portion of the
State. 1t is wrought of the purest Italian
marble by Mr. Van Gunden, of the firm Of
Van Gunden & Young, of Philadelphia,
and is finely proportioned and highly
polished, resting upon firm brick foun-
,dation, covered with green sod, and CON-
sists of a solid marble base, three and q
a half feet square and three in height, upon
which rests another base little smaller
and one foot in height, giving it a graceful,
tapering appearance. Upon this rests the
inscription shaft, which is about two and a
half feet square by three and half high,
and contains upon the western side, "James
l.. Orr, Born May H. 1922, in Anderson
County, S. C. Died May S, 1878, at st..
Petersburg, Russia" On the northern side
is, "He filled the following positions: S. c..
Legislature, 1s444s; U. S. Congress, 1S48-
So; Speaker of 35th Congress Col. of Orr's
Regiment of Rifles, 1861" On the eastern
side is, Confederate States Senate, 1S61-65 |;
Governor of S. c., 1s65-6S; Grand Master
of the G. L. A. F. NJ. of S. c., 1S65-6S; /;
Judge of 9th Judicial Circuit of S. c., 1863
73." On the southern side is, Erected by
his Widow and Children" The top Of this
shaft is crowned with bundle of laurels,
presenting the leaves and berries of the
natural tree, initiated with wonderful skill
by the sculptor, and upon this rests broken
Corinthian column of about six feet in
height, beautifully huted and entwined with
garland of ivy, magnifcently carved with
richness of foliage that charms the behol-
der, and presents every leaf standing alone
in remarkable projection. 1t is indeed a
master piece of workmanship, and fifty
commentaries the many services which the
sleeping statesman rendered his fellow-men
during the brilliant and useful career of his
life

ROBBERY OF THE DEPOT AT PENDLEroN.

A daring robbery was perpetrated on last
Monday night at Pendleton by unknown
parties cutting open the door of the Blue
Ridge Railroad Depot, at that place, with an
axe. The iron safe of the company was
taken out and carried off some seventy-five
yards to more private place and rifed of
its contents-some ninety dollars of money
belonging to the Grccnville and Columbia
Railroad Company and several articles be-
longing to the Agent and Operator. Two
trunks of Col. James Fl. Rion, of Winnsboro,
had been left in the depot the previous night
and were also taken and robbed of clothes
belonging to Col. and Miss Rion together
with some valuable diamond jewelry. The
robbers seem to have become frightened and
to have left hurriedly, as some valuable sill
yer plate was found OH the ground by the
trunks 1t is probable they did not expec'
to get anything beyond the contents of the
safe when they entered, but finding the
trunks their gain was considerably increas-
ed. No clew whatever as to who the perpe-
traitors of this bold scheme of plunder are,
exists. Every effort should be made to ferret
out and bring them to merited pur rishment,
and to this end the Governor should offer q
liberal reward for the apprehension of the
criminals

The sale of lots at Seneca City took place
on Wednesday last, in accordance with

another sale would begin on the oath of

Mr.. n, s. Sha,pc-S1R In answer to your
inquiry in regard to my opinion OF the
Brown Cotton Gin, can say that would
not take it down to put up any other Gin
that 1 am acquainted with 1t runs very
light; is no trouble to keep in order. To
prove the last assertion, ginncd three hum
dred and twenty bales on mine and never
removed the caps from the inks; in fact, l
don't think lost twenty minutes in all the

1t makes very good staple, and sells in our
