Redmond, who shot and wounded
Barton and Hendricks, week before
last, in a revenue difficulty, returned
to the house of Barton on last Satur>
day morning, and demanded tho res
turn of his horses and money, which
he says had been taken from him by
the revenue officers. Redmond saws
ho had $l96 in his pocket book
when it was taken from him. This
money, Barton informed him, had
been deposited in tho Greenville Bank
and tho two horses were in q livery
stable at that place. Barton gave up
to Redmond two of his own horses
and check for one hundred dollars,
which Redmond got cashed at Easley
Station. Redmond subsequently, re>
turned one of the horses to Mrs. Bars
ton. He and eight others passed
through this place on their way back
to North Carolina. The revenue off,
cials certainly had tho right to take
the wagon, horses and whiskey and
to arrest Redmond and carry him to
Jail, but we do not know whore they
got the right to take his pocket-book
and $196. Perhaps, though, they
were justified by the law. Barton, we
are informed, did not knock and kick
Redmond, when he arrested him, as
we had been informed. and stated
last week.

1877 NEW YORK 1877
The different editions of THE SUN during

year that has passed. The daily edition will
on week days be sheet Of four pages and on
Sundays sheet OF eight pages, or Sc broad
columns; while the weekly edition will be n
sheet of eight pages of the same dimensions
and character that arc already familiar to our
friends.
The Sun will continue to be tho strenuous
advocate of reform and retrenchmcnt, and of
the substitution Of craftsmanship, wisdom,
and integrity for hollow prctence, imbecility,
and fraud in the administration of public af,
fairs. 1t will contend for the government of
the people by the people and for the people,
as opposed to government by frauds in the
ballot box and in the counting Of votes, en-
forced by military violence. 1t will endcavor
to supply its rcaders--a body now not far
from million of souls-with the most care
full, complete, and trustworty accounts Of cur
rent events, and will employ for this purpose
numerous and carefully selected staff Of re
porters and correspondents. Its reports from
Washington, especially, will be full, accurate.
and fearless; and it will doubtless continue to
dcscrve and enjoy the hatred of those who
thrive by plundering the Treasury or by
usurping what the law does not give them,
while it will cndeavor to merit the confid ence
W
people against the encroachmcnts of unjusti-
fed power.
The price of the daily Sun will be IS cents

the Sunday edition ST 70 a year.
The Sunday edition alone, eight pages,

mont of the Pickens High School for
1877. This school commences the
fourth year of it's career of usefulness.
The Principal, because of the "hard
times," has reduced tho price for tho
junior year to one dollar per month,
which is as cheap as the cheapest.
This, either as q preparatory school or
ono in which young men can receive
q good business education, is strictly
first class. Our location is, perhaps,
unrivalled in many respects--in cli>
mate, health, natural beauty of our
mountain scenery, and in being en-

vice, which over operate powerfully
against the success of youthful train~
ing. Excellent board in private fam.
