borne a more unsel6sh part in the
struggle than our honored and patri-

Edge6eld would like to see made
Collector Of Internal Revenue for
South Carolina. He is peculiarly
fitted for the position, and his ap'

than a slight recognition of his ser
vices to the Democratic party and the
State. His friends propose to present
his name at the proper time for this
position and We very earnestly hope
he will receive the appointment.

For Presenting False, Fictitious
aud Fraudulent Accounts.

The United States Court, Judge
Bond presiding, is now in session in
Columbia. And this time, instead Of
trying white Democrats upon trump
ed.up charges and before suborned
:iuries, its chief business will be to
arraign ex:Chief Marshal Blythe, Of
the Republican party, and some eigh-
teen OR twenty of his Republican
deputies, for presenting "false, 6cti.
tious and fraudulent accounts" The
penalty in this matter is imprisonment
for from one to FIVE years, or fine
from $1,000 to $4,000. Of course
every mothers son of them is pro-
foundly guilty.

MARY E. HOLSTON, wife of MOSES

Batesburg, S. c., Sept. 25th, 1874, aged
81 years and 10 months. At the tender
age of IL she was converted and, d,became
a member of the West Creek Baptist
Church, and for twenty. five YEARS was
an humble follower of the meek and low
ly Savior. In the spring of 1873 she was
married, since which time she has lent
the charm of quiet, unassuminS, chris
tian spirit to the sacred domain of the
home circle. She belonged to that grand
army of consecrated wives and mothers

whose just need of praise is reserved
for higher and holier cline, where and
when the Master will say, "Well DONE"
Only those who know the varied and
perplexing cares of mothers life, can,
even partially, appreciate the beauty and

Organization and Preliminary
Work Of the Legislature.

All the old officers in either House
have been reelected. As yet, how
ever, the work Of the aession has been
only preliminary. Thanksgiving dey
was a recess in both Houses, while
the Senate had also vacation from
Saturday noon until Tuesday noon.
The body is composed very largely
OF new members. Two of the most
prominent members since 1876 are
missing this winter: tombstone, OF
Newberry, and Murray, of Anderson.
They both'ran for Congress, and both
lost the prize. Their absence will be
felt, inasmuch as they are both verv
strong men. Col. John c. Haskell
succeeds Mr.. Johnstone as Chairman
of the Ways and Means Committee.
On the 10th inst, Senator Hampton
will be unanimously reelected Unit
ed States Senator from the 4th Of
March next. Chief Justice Simpson
will also most probably be reelected
to preside over the Supreme Court.
Judge Kershaw will behis own sue
csssor in the Fifth Judicial District.
These will be the only elections OF
Importance.
The Governors Message very
cheerful and cheering paper-wise,
excellent and minute-was sent in
and read on Wednesday.
On Friday the Senate attended on
the House and the returns received
from the Secretary Of State were
opened by Speaker simons, who was
reelected on the first day Of the ses.
sion, and who, at the close, formally
declared Hugh s. Thompson and John
G. Sheppard as, respectively, Govern
or and Lieutenant. Governor of the
State, they having received the high
est number of votes cast at the recent
election. They will be inaugurated
one day this week.
Bills have been introduced propos
ing an increase in the judiciary-twc
more Judges; to abolish the Office o.
Trial Justice, or else very much
abridge the power of that officer; to
repeal the lien law; to reduce taxes
to regulate the traffic in seed cotton
to dispense with two of our Railroad
Commissioners and have only one.
Col. Folk, of the Edgeield delega.
ton, has introduced two or three bills
one of them to incorporate the Au'
gusta and Edgefeld Marrow Gauge
Railroad Company.
In the three great matters of the
revision of the tax laws, the increase
of the judiciary, and the repeal o1
the lien law, we hope our Edge6eld
members will be prompt, watchful
and wise.
