COOLEy'S CONUNDRURE.

Cooley's memory is very treach-
erous, and it often gets him into
trouble. The other night be was
at tea party at Smiths, and
while the company sat around the
supper table, Cooley suddenly
concluded be would eject conun.
drum be bad beard here,
and so in an interval of silence, he
said:
ave got pretty good conun-
drum I'd like you to guess. Can
anybody tell me why q druggist,
who keeps his bottles down stairs
is like certain kind of musician 2"
Everybody at once began to
guess the answer, and Cooley sat
there for a moment smiling. Pre-
sently, however, he thought he
would get the answer ready. in
order 10 give it, and to his intense
alarm found that be had forgotten
it. He began to feel warm. He
thought the object over with all
his might and he nearly had the
answer several times, but it al
ways eluded him. Then he be-
came warmer and the perspiration
began to stand out upon his fore
head. The company gave it up one
after the other and as they did so,
each one asked Cooley what the
answer was, Cooley smiled a
CHASTITY kind of a smile as if he
was keeping it back to torment
them, but the singular redness Of
his face and the peculiar behavior
attracted the attention ofevery-
body. and the more they looked
at him the redder he got, and
the more profuse became the per-
spiration.
"Come Mr.. Cooley" said the
host, eve are all waiting for an
answer" "Out with it, Cooley"
said another "Cooley, we can't
be happy until We have an an
swer to that conundrum,'' re-
marked third. Cooley would
have given millions, at that mo.
ment, to have been hidden in the.
bowels of the Mammoth Cave
out of sight. At last he exclaimed:
"The-ah--t he--ah-fact is, that
-ah-the afair-that is the con-
nndrun-the whole thing, your
honor, is a joke. There is no an
swer to it, your honor.''
Then everybody said that they
didn't see anything very amusing
about jokes of such a character,
and Smith frowned while Cooley
heard the man say next to his
nelghbor, that the man Cooley
must be drunk. Then Cooley rose
suddenly from the table and bolted
out through the front door. About
two hours afterward, while he
was in bed, he all at once re.
membercd the answer, and he in
stantly arose and went round to
Smiths. After ringing the door
bell for half an hour, old Smith
put his head ont Of the bedroom
window. -.....
"I know it now," shouted Coo
ley; Il know it. It's because he
has a vial-in-c cellar p
$50 to thunder er!' calculated
Smith, as he shut the window
with a slam and went to bed. And
now the Cooley's don't speak to
the Smiths, and old Cooley carries
the answers to his conundrums
written on his shirt cuffs, when
he goes into company, so as to be
certain that he will have them
when they are wanted.

WHY, BLESS HER, LET HER
GO.

Some time ago I fell in love
With pretty Mary Jane,
And I did hope that by and by
She'd love me back again.
Alasl my hopes a-dawning bright,
Were all at once made dim;
She saw chap, don't know where,
And she fell in love with him.
Next time I went-(now how it was
Idon't pretend to say)-
But when my chair moved up to hers,
Why, hers would move away.
Before always got a kiss
Q own with some small fuss,)
But now, forsooth, for love or fun,
IT'S non-come-at -at-a-buSS.
Well, there we sat, and when we spoke,
Our conversation dwelt
On everything beneath the sun
Except what most we felt.
Enjoying this delightful mood,
Who then should just step in
But he, of all the world whom I -
Had rather see than him.
And he could sit down by her side.
And she could-all the while
He pressed her hand within his own
Upon him sweetly smile;
And she could pluck a rose for him,
So fresh and bright and red,
And gave me one which hours before
Was shrunk and pale and dead.
And she could freely, gladly sing
The song he cid request:
The ones I asked were just the ones
She always did detest.
I rose to leave-she'd be so glad
To have me longer stay!
No doubt of it! No doubt they wept
To see me go away!
sat me down. thought Profound
This maxim wise drew;
'Tis easier far to like girl
Than make girl like you.
But after all, don't believe
My heart will break with woe;
If she's mind to love the chap,
Why, bless her, let her go!

ItIas iydge Hudson's first visit to this Coun-
ty5 a8dHS.has made a most favorable impress
sion upon the bar and the community. He is
man of sterling integrity, pure moral character
and profound lawyer, while his intercourse
with oil connected with the court Is dlgnified
and courteous. His charge to the Grand Jury,
mainly upon the solemnity Of the oath that body
had taken and the imperative duties it onjoincd,
was very timely, appropriate and impressive.

promptly at his post, and with his accustomed
energy andability did his full duty to the State
and County.

The Fault Finders. TOT 'n0 i'"'''

MIR. Epircn I'll am sorry to see cropping
out among tho people a disposition to find fault
with the plans suggested for concentrating pub
lie opinion. And the worst feature Is that this
carping comes from men who ore anxious 10 get
Office. We have too many men who want to be
conspicuous, am afraid.
If ever there was time when cool, clear
heads and honesty were needed in the public
councils, it is now. have heard great deal of
fault found with the last Legislature. Have
those fault-nndcrs ever thought Of ~ difficulties
that body had to encounter, OF the immense
amount of work they had TO do. of the frauds to
unravcl, the secret rogueries to ferret out;
the bad legislation to undo? And there is
another thing Have they ever thought hbout il
that largo proportion of the Legislature was
made up of young men and men unex perienccd
in legislation 1t was the greenest house ever
knew convene in South Carolina and now, fneis
how call themselves sensible, patriotic citizens,
want to send more verdant delegation, by put
ting themselves in the power of Juno Mobley.-
This is trihng with the bost interests of the peoA
ple-most dangerous rifling.

Presentment Of the Grand Jury,

AT THE JUNE TERM OF COURT, 1878.
Under the direction of your Honor, as en-.
braesd in the Charge to the Grand Jury, we beg
to submit:
That we have considered the Various matters
brought to our attention and find as follows:
PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
There ore some small repairs needed about
the Court House and Jail, and we would recon.
mend that these be made at as early . day rs
can be conveniently done by the County Com.
missioners. The public Well also is in need Of
repairs.
TIE POOR HOUSE.
The inmates Of this institution seem to be do
ing we'll and are we'll provided for. The build
ings are in good condition. The farm, &c., ap-
pears to be well manaeed, ssx
PUBLIC OFFICERS,
As far as we have been able to make nm exam.
ination, we find them we'll kept, and the records
in good condition.
TRIAL JUSTICES.
We have examined all the books present ed 10
US by the various Trial Justices of the County
and find them in good condition.
ROADS.
The Roads in the County are in bad condition.
We would recommend thst special attention bo
given to this matter by the County Commits
sioners and that the Road law be rigidly en-
forced.
BRIDGES.
There ore some Bridges needed in the County,
and We WOULD recommend that tho comm,.s;on.
ers build them as soon rs they arc in funds to
do SO.
There are some repairs needed upon some of
the Bridges and we would recommend that these
repairs be made at once.
GAMBLING.
The Grand Jury have had brought to their no.
tice the fact that the evil of gambling is very
prevalent in the County and would recommend
that tho Oficers of the County, whose duty it is
to take cosiizance of such matters, be instruc-
ted to rigidly enforce the laws in relation to
gaming.
BILLS OF THE BANK OF THE STATE
We have been informed by the Treasurer that
large proportion Of the County Taxes have
been rendered in Bills Of the Bank of the State
Of South Carolina, and regret to know the fact,
as it was expected that the debt of the County
could be psidAut of the tax levy fer the present
fiscal year, so that after this year the pco-
pie might hope to be relieved Of the heavy taxa
ton which has oppressed them for SO long o
time.
COUNTY AUDITOR.
We would recommend the abolition of the
Office of County Auditor, and that the duties of
this Office be discharged by the Treasurer of the
County.
Respectfully submitted,
J. Z. MENG, Foreman.
