party interested feels. that the sher-
if has mistaken his dnty under the
order or statute. she can have the
Sheriff's view tested by the court
under an attachment or a rule to
show cause. We see nothing un-
fair in this;-in deed in the admin
istration of justice it is necessary.
The courts are seldom unreason7
able in making the sheriff pay costs.
-0ftener some party interested at
whose instance the sheriff acts has
the costs to pay; indeed in Rost
cases the sheriff has the power Of
securing himself at the outset by
taking a bond from him for whom
he acts.
The Probate Judge and Trial
Justices are judicial officers and re-
sponsible only for corruption or
oppression in Office; the Clerk OF
Court is responsible for his mainiste-
real errors not for his Judicial
such as in taxing, costs, &c.
The income of the Sherif's office
may be too small-especially in
those counties where the Office OF
Master exists, but the statutory
restrictions such as that above re-
ferred to are necessary, and any
proposition to change the law in
this respect will be only a part of
what the Greenyille Nescs indicates
is the proper work for the next
Legislature, viz: that Of rejecting
proposed laws.

in their store in the suburbs Of Sa-
vannah. Customers went to the
store yesterday morning and found
it closed. Looking through the
window blinds they discovered
Hertel lying on the floor in pool
of blood. The door was burst in and
ghastly sight was revealed. The
murdered man was lying in the
middle of ther room with a banker
chief tied over his eyes. His skull
was crushed in with some blunt in
strument. His wife was found
lying on the sofa in the parlor with
her throat cut, and one arm nearly
severed. The matter was reported
to the police and search was be-
gun for the perpetrators Of the
crime. Two negroes were arrested
on suspicion and lodged in jail.
Hertel was supposed to have a large
sum of .moneyin his possession, and
it is believed he was murdered
while defending his property from
burglars. The crime was committed
between s o'clock Saturday night
and Z o'clock Sunday morning

MANAGING LABOR.
THE MERITS OF WHITE AND NEGRO
LABOR. IN THE SOUTH.
Marion Cotton Plant.

While the fCash System and
the Diversity Of Crops are of the
first Importance of the success of
the farmer, the subject of labor is
equally important. I propose to
give you my experience in the man
+agement of labor, for the last eigh-
teen years, and conclude by giving
my opinion as to the merits of
white and negro labor in the South.
Three plans have been tried in this
section. hiring for wages. cropping
on shares and renting. [ have
tried. all of them. The first three
years after the surrender, I hired
altogether for wages. I realized
about twenty-five cents per pound
for cotton. I made more money
to the hand than [ have since or
before the war. / tasked my hands;
gave my personal attention; this
way I succeeded in working my
crop. 1 did not like the task sys-
TEN, as it is difficult to have good
work done. Since that time ! have
hired my hands for part of the
crop, they working by my direc-
tions; I don't like this plan of rent
ing, as well. as hiring for wages.
For fifteen years the price of cotton
has been SO low. and provisions so
high, the crop system has been
more profitable to me. I have hired
no other kind of laborers since the
emancipation but negroes. I.have
never turned off a hand or had one
to leave me. The great secret in
managing negroes successfully, is
to bring them out at the end of the
year with money in their pockets;
they have enough common sense to
know if they make money with an
employer, to remain and be directed
by him. I furnish each freedman
with a blank book at the commence
ment of the year. / make arrange
menks with the merchant to furnish
him with what he needs, charging
every article on the blank book.
do not give him unlimited credit.
but only allow him to buy such ar
ticles as he actually needs. | am as
particular in looking after his ac-
count as my own. Inever make ac-
counts with negroes for the reason
that 1 am dealing with them justly.
It is better never to have any abso-
lutte rules for the management ofne-
groes. simply for the. good reason
that you cannot at all times enforce
them. l have not tried white Ia
borers on my farm; good many
farmers in this section have; they
all tell me that the negro is much
better as a laborer, is more reliable.
demands less provisions. The class
of immigrants who have come to
the South have been generally the
scum of Europe and cannot CON-
pete with the negro as laborer be-
cause he. cannot afford to work so
cheap, nor is he able to stand the
climate so well. 49,
Ifw are obliged'to give up negro
labor, we must have a better class
of immigrants. lease our lands out
to them and make them permanent
citizens Of the country.

FOUND DEAD.-On last Wednes-
day morning, aboutr9 o'clock,
James Baker, about "a years old,
who came here from South Caro-
lima, was found dead in the straw
pen of widow Davis, about two
miles south Of the city. Baker was
in town late the night before, and
it is said had been drinking quite
hard for some days. The stifiened
corpse was lying upon the face and
bottle of whisky was found near
his head. At first it was thought
the inordinate use of the article had
caused his, death, but upon q
thorough examination by the coro-
7ner and jury, strychnine was found
in his pocket. The jury was COM
posed as follows Dr.. W. G. Ham,,

TOO MUCH LYNCH LAW.

Lynch Law has become far too
common in this eountry-North,
East, South and West-particular-
" in the South and West. 1t has
been either actually approved or
charitably winked at when applied
to aggravated cases of rape where
the proof of guilt is at hand and be-
yond doubt. In such cases we
may still expect to see it either
commended as the swift ayenger OF
-woman's violated innocence, or toll
Grated as the excusable outbreak of
righteous indignation-evenin in such
cases il would upon the whole be
better for the law to take its natur-
al course. At all events, here the
line must be drawn; every act Of
lynching for any other crime GER
tainly tends more or less to des-
troy the society whose professed OBJ
ject is it to uphold-it does far
more to dcmoralize society than
the crime for which the victim is
lynched. Lynehing is generally
done by mob, full of vengeance,
which is it bent on gratifying hay-
ing too little regard to the guilt of
its victim or to the welfare of socie-
ty. We need not mention the fact
that there is generally a risk, in the
hurry and heat Of passion, of pun
ishing the innocent especially in
those crimes where two or more are
supposed to be accomplices; the
evils of lynching are not ayerted
by the fact of the victims being
guilty.
The papers have had in them Of
late so many cases Of lynching
for alleged crimes other than rape
(even in some cases for crimes not
capitaD that we felt called upon to
pen these words on this hackneyed
subject and to call upon all lovers
of law and soicety to put their foot
down on this mob rule.
The words of the Memphis Aga-
lanche on this matter are quite per-
tinent:
If the same zeal and determine
ton were shown in support of the
law that are SO conspicuous in ex-
ecuting a mob's vengeance there
would be no trouble in impartially
executing the laws against crime.

BRUTAL MURDER IN HoRRY.-
From letter received at this Office
we learn that a white man by the
name of Jerry Granger was MUIR
dered in a most brutal manner by
a colored man named Grissett, on
the 18th inst. near Conwayboro', S.
G.. Grissett, who was Implicated
in the killing Of q man for which
two were convicted and hung last
June, and Granger had a difficulty
and the latter caused the former to
be bound over TO keep the peace.
On the day Of the murder Granger
had started to his work in the woods,
and while on his way was hailed by
Grissett, who was waiting in am
bush for him, and told that if he at
tempted to run he (Grissett would
kill him. Grissett then beat Grain
ger SO severely that he died soon
after. The murderer is at large. but
the sheriff and a posse are after him
and feel confident they shall ac-
complish his capture before many
days Wilmington, N. c.. Review.

opinion is that the town will be de-
