The COUNTY TAXEs.--Ne are i'll
formed by Treasurer Nelson that the
whole amount of taxes collected by
him before the penalty attached, was
$5S. 53G.5l, besides S7,397.77 ten
dcred in bills of the Bank of the State,
making m actual total ofS65, 934 32.
The total levy in the county is S7O,-
5O772, and the deficiency is there
fore only &l,573. 40 This is smaller
than any deficiency in the payment
of taxes in this county since recon
struction. Of course we include in
the amount paid the sums rendered
in bills Of the Bank of the State.
The state government will find it n
very difficult task to evadc the ac-
ceptancc OF these billsin payment of
taxes, and the sooner the authorities
realize that fact, the better for the
state treasury.

thought it would be better to ap

and several other persons who woro
present Oh FRIDAY night expressed
their determination to be present.
Any others who may have been
absent from the meeting, and who
fool an interest in this important
work, are cordially invited to attend
the convention, where they will
learn in three days, more about tho
advantages, results and practical
operations of Young Mems Christian
Associations than they Gun otherwise
learn in years. Tho only qualitica
ton required is that they bo mom-
bors in good standing in an ovan-

nomination it may be. It is hoped
that tho pastors of all tho

A TOUCHING INCIDENr.-Thc book
recently published by Gen. Double
day; entitled, "Fofts Sumter and
Moultric," contains and Incident
we'll illustrating the character IF one
of FuirGeld's most honorcd sons.
1t appears that when Andvrson's s
command abandnhcd Fort Moultric,
Md occupied Sumter two ladies, tho
wives of officers, wcrd left behind
Ono of these, Mrs. Seymour, re-
qucsted permission to join her hus-
band i'll Fort Sumter, but this was
refused by tho South Carolina off
cor. That night sho entered an open
boat, and was rowed over to Sumter
in the darkness by two boys. The
U. S. chaplain remained ut Fort
Moultrie. Gen. Doubleday says ::
I'm tho meantime an amusing scena
had occurred there Q'ort Moultric.)
A worry chivalrdus gentleman, .Ex-
Governor Means, of South Carolina,
had learned iii some way that Mrs.
Seymour had been rudely refused
permission to visit her husband in
Fort Sumter. He thought tho ac
ton of the tommandunt of Fort
Moultrie harsh and unnecessary, and
was kind enough to take the trouble
to call Mt tho Chnp,aiii's house to
assure Mrs. Seymour that he would
procure her PASS from higher au-
thority. The Chaplain hardly knew
how to net. He did not like to tell
the Ex-Governor that Mrs. Seymour
had already gone. for fear it might
get tho Sinclair boys in trouble.
He therefore pretended that Mrs.
Seymour was confined to her room
with u sick headache. The Ex Gov
ernor sont in repeated messages to
beg that she would sec him if it WAS
only for moment, but the answers
made by Mrs. Harris were invaria-
bly, in the negative. The Chaplain
afterwards laughed heartily at the
oqlivocal position ho had been fore
el to assume"
This incident touchingly potrays
tho softer tibres Of heart of Oak.
The same nature that could not
brook thu sight OF woman In dis
trebs, quailed hot before the storm
of battle; aid yielded itself, awillng
and noblo sacrifice, to tho Southern
cause OH the bloody battlefield of
Manassas. Additional interest is
lent to this anctdotc, from the fact
that it is tirst brought to light Ivy
bitter enemy of the cause to which
this noble Caroliniah had devoted
himself.
