fllness Of the miniOns Of the department

would seem. however, that the Attorney

tactics adopted BY his predecessors. The

lar have been subjected to the annoyances
of these OverzealOus officials. The latest
prosecutions, 50 far as it appears, are
without any Justification. A number
of citizens Of Clarendon county were
dragged from their homes the other day
upon baseless charges, as was shown ny
the want of evidence to justify their
detention or committal for trial.

Lafayette's Baltimore-Made Carriage.

When the venerable Marquis de La
fayette revisited this country upon the in
YitatiOn rendered to him by President
Monroe, at the request of Congress, in
1924, stately and cumbersome carriage,
after the fashion of those days, was built
for him at Baltimore, and this vehicle
was used by the distinguished French
through the growing and pros
porous States whose independ-
ence he had helped to establish. After
LAFAYETTE returned to his native land his
carriage was sold, and thus it came into
the possession of Judge Yates, of Chit
tenangO, Madison county, in this
State, who esteemed the famous We
the remainder Of his life. Since
the death of the Judge, a man of renOwn
in his comfy in 1896, the Lafayette car
riage has been rarely used. The Judges
widow married a Mr.. BrinckerhOtf, and
during the next generation the old Yates
homestead and the broad lands around it
became known as the BrinckerhOtf estate.
This property was sold by public vendue
the other day, and the antique treas
ures in the old house attracted crowds
of city folks to the town OF Chittenan-
20. as we'll as the farmers and
their wives and families from the
neighborhood. The old carriage was
hauled out from a remote corner Of one of
the barns and busted off, and the crowd
looked at it curiously: its great height
and heavy make excited wonder, and the
country folk smiled at the Positions
stand at the back. High prices were paid
for tall clocks and old crockery; but in
spite of the fact that the carriage appeared
to be as strong and as serviceable as when
it was used by man who, as an old far
mer present said, twas once as well
known in this country as WashingtOn, and
thought to be abOtt as great a man" it
was finally knocked down for $50.
