As you have asked locals from the various
sections of the County, we propose to give
you an item or two from the above section.
...... .Hopewell is one of the largest townships
in the County, and is composed almost ex-
clusively of planters. We have therefore,
been dealing largely and freely in CONNER
cial fertilizers for the purpose ofproducins
cotton to the exclusion OF grain crops, be-
Loving that this system was the shortest way
to success. Fertilizc, plant cotton, buy sup
plies and pocket the surplus were certainly
fattcring few years ago But Figures do
not lie" We learned few years since to our
detriment Instead of q surplus there was
"a deficit hence, gradual reduction of cot
ton and. corresponding increase Of grain
planting. We hear of still farther reduc-
ton of the one and an increase of the other
this season-c 9. L. D.. Stringer decided to
reduce his cotton crop this year from twenty
five to ten acres, and to plant this cotton
land in corn, peas, pinders, sorghum and
potatoes. w. A. Neal proposes to plant ten
acres of his intended cotton land in Golden
Dent corn. We hope to hear of similar re-
ductions.. The Hopewell Cemetery has been
repaired and greatly improved in appearance.
The friends of this enterprise (and they are.
not few are greatly indebted to the pro-
prietors of the Hopewell Portable Saw firm,
Neal & Guyton, who sawed the entire lum-
Der free of charge. There is but one thing
to regret in connection with this firm. The

RAILROAD i 81 ACCIDENT.

An unfortunate accident occurred on the
Greenyille & Columbia Railroad last Satur-
day morning, between Honea Path and
Belton. The up-freight train, under charge
of Conductor Casson, was within four miles
of Bolton, when the conductors car was
thrown from the track, and several of its
occupants injured. Rev. B. F. Mauldin, of
Williamson, received the most serious inju-
ries, by being severely bruised about the
face and head, besides other contusions
about his person. It was thought at the
time that his wounds were dangerous, but
we are glad to report his condition as quite
favorable on Monday morning. Rev. R. NJ.
King, of Honea Path, was slightly injured
by the accident, and also Conductor Casson
and Others. Mr.. Mauldin was engaged in
paying off the employees on the railroad
when the accident occurred, and was max
ing the usual trip for that purpose. Hewas

rHT wA1HA1LA COURT.

The rproeeedingsuof the. Circuit Court Of
Oconec County in Walhalla last week cre-
ated general interests arising, from the fact
that Alex, Bryce, jr., the notorious Radical
politician, was put upon trial for his recent /.
conduct in, regard to the Auditors books |
It win be remembered that the books of the
County Auditor were turned over to the
County Commissioners in January, and
that these books were distracted from the
office not long lago, after Chamberlain had
sent an appointment to Bryce as County
Auditor, Tie books were found in the pos
session of Bryce, and he was indicted for the
larceny and also for receiving stolen goods
Upon! E6ng arrested Bryce succeeded in
eludine the officer and went to Columbia,
wiiera be preferred charges against several
citizens Of Waihalla for abstracting mail
bag from the post Office. This mail pouch
contained part of the Auditors books, and
upon Bryce being carried hack to Walhalla,
he refused 70 open the pouch, which had
been deposited in the Walhalla Bank for
safe-Eeeping. Thus matters stood when
Judge Cooke convened the Court last week,
and Bryce Stas again askedito surrender the
books in the mail bag, which was brought
into the court room. He peremptorily re-
fused,tc open the mail bag, and Judge Cooke
ordered him to be taken to the Jail until he
was ready to comply with this demand,
Bryce afterwards relented, and agreed to
open the bsg at the post Office, as the. postal
laws.prohibitel him from taking the keys
awsy from the. office. The acting Sheriff
was sent with him, and Bryce again sought
to eyade the order of the Court, which was
soon reported to Judge Cooke, who went in
person to the post Office and demanded in
slant compliance with his order. Bryce
could no longer dodge the question. and the
books were produced. Great excitement
prevailed in Wslhalla during these proceed
ipps. and 1t was natural that the subsequent
trial OF Bryce produced general interest, for
the citizens were rightfully exasperated at
the contumacious behavior of this defiant,
lawless Radical, who has been q source OF
great annoyance w tuC N~~
many years. The charge of grand larceny
was not proven, as the proof was not sutti-
cient to establish his direct participation in
the theft. BE was found, guilty of receiving
the stolen goods, however, and was SEN
fenced by Judge Cooke to one year in the
Penitentiay at hard labor.
On Tuesday morning, Acting Sheriff
Woodin and his deputies passed down tho
railroad in charge Of the prisoners, Alex.
Bryce among them, and doubtless at this
time he Is in the custody Of Superintendent
Parmele. We understand Bryce expresses
the opinion that he will be released in a
short time, and probably bases this e1pecta-
tion Upon the pardoning power of Chamber
lain. But the decision of the Supreme
Court has been obeyed by Col. Parmeie IN
recognizing Gov. Hampton, and he Is not
likely to set Bryce at liberty until better au-
thority than Chamberlain so directs.
Jordan Crenshaw, the nephew OF Bryce
was convicted Of perjury, and sent to the

Penitei1tiary for two years. He sworc thut
several citizens of Walhalla, who captured
the mail bag aforesaid containing the Audi
tors books, had stolen thercfrom large
quantity of postage stamps, when the evi-,
dence showed that repeated offers to pur-
chase were met with the information that
only few stamps were in the office. =
Jesse F. Cox, brother-in-law of Bryce,
was convicted of grand larceny, and sem
fenced to five years in the Penitentiary.
His offence was COW stealing, and not con-
nected with the exploits of Bryce.
Besides these representatives ofthe Bryce
family, Mr. Woodin had in charge two
others, who were connected with the post
Office matter, we believe.
