ing to Arrest a Desperate.
y. T. Abel has received the Fort Grit
lin (Texas) Echo, Oh July 3D., 1880, con-
tanning an account OF the death OF his
brother, Cyrus w. Abel, at that place.
The evidence taken before the Coroner's
Jury shows that Mr. Abel was called
on by an officer to arrest man named
Ed Forrest, who had fred two or three
shots at the officer, and that he was
shot by the desperate Forrest while as
sisting the officer. Deceased went to
California with his brother David, in
1858, and resided near Marysville, in
that State. In 1864 he came to Neva-
da and lived in Paradise Valley until
1872, whee he emigrated from this
county to Texas. The Echo says:
"Mr. Abel was a native of Ohio, but
had been citizen OF Fort Griffin for
years. He was quiet, unassuming,
crupulously honest, ever ready to as
sist the stranger in need or distress,
and he had not an enemy. In days
gone by, when Fort Griffin was a 'hur-
rah town, full of bad men and women,
who held their lives at the muzzle of o
six shooter, and the Constable required
assistance to make an arrest. Cy Abel
was ever ready to assist the officers in
enforcing law and order. While We
condemn his faults, we admire his
many good qualities. Let us pray that
the Recording Angel, in making up the
balance sheet of his life, may find a
large credit due him."

pon6iture IS never TO cease, that 1t would be
better to remove the capitol to GreenVllle,

the consequent improvement Of our agrlcul-

The Savannah Valley Railroad.

The people OF our neighbor county OF An
derson are a thrifty people, and the village OF
Anderson yearly ships a much larger amount
of cotton than does Abbeville, and 1t Is O no
torious fact that Anderson can get up the
most enthusiastic railroad meeting In the
State; built will no doubt be surprising news
to the public to learn tina staid old Abbeville,
with her thousands OF untitled acres, and who
seldom holds O Railroad meeting at all. pays
many times as much actual cash for the So
vannah Valley Railroad, as the rich and pros
porous town and county possessing q Nation
oil Bank. We think there must be some error
in the report at Abbeville, which is to the ef-
feet, that in FIVE townships In anderson only
between $500 and 400 Of taxes have been paid
to this grand enterprise, while three townships
in Abbeville bave paid about s5,lOO, $500 Of
which however, was paid under protest. Abb
beville has no reason to be jealous Of our
neighbor county when it comes to actual
work. Our people have made less noise in
paying 5000 than could be heard in Anderson
about $500. We rave always felt proud Of ABB
teville, andh lei action In this mattor makes us
think none the less OF her.

friends think We do not esteem him, because
we feel compelled to straighten him out a lit
,lc once in a while. The Nei1hbor Is f. high.
toned paper which is always ready 10 do a
ueiehbor full justice. In one matter we would
particularly commend this paper. Tho editor
seems to have a conscientious regard for the
welfare and morals OF the public in, that 1t
very seldom copies a s%windling advertise
ment. In that paper there are very few adj
vert,sements or local notices which we would
not be willing to insert In the Press and Ban
rer. We mention this as being noticeable,
rom the fact, which we think is susceptible
OF. proof, that, as q rule religious newspapers
viii publish anything for money, except bar
room advertisements. There are, OF course,
honorable exceptions
