The bill reported to the Senate by Mr..
Hoar, from the Committee on Judiciary, to

provides that in any proceeding and exami-
nation before grand jury, judge, justice
or United States Commissioner or a court,
in any prosecution for bigamy, polygamy or
unlawful cohabitation under any statute of

wife of the person accused shall be compe-
tent witness, and may be called and COM
PEELED to testify in such proceeding, exami-
nation or prosecution, without the consent
of the husband or wife, as the case may be.
Any prosecution for bigamy, polygamy or

at any time within five years next after the
commission of the offense. Any person vo-
lating the law is to be deemed guilty Of a
misdemeanor. The law makes it unlawful
for any female to vote at any election here

LETTER FROM CHESTER.

CHESTER, S. c., February i, 1SS4.-In con-
sequence of break in the boiler the CataWba
oil mill was not in operation for several
days last week. 1t is due to the inferior ma
chinery that this enterprise has not paid any
dividends to the stockholders. ThelreXpec-
tatiOns would undoubtedly have been real
lied if the mill had been at the start equip
ped with substantial machinery. AS 1t is,
and has been from the beginning, the profits
of the mill have been consumed in keeping
the Door machinery in repair. The mill of
late has been turning out about $50 gallons
of oil per day. In a couple of weeks new
presses will be put in, when the yield OF oil
will be doubled. The new presses will also
turn out greater quantity of oil to the ton
of seed. They will turn out 40 gallons to
the ton Of seed, which will be an increase of
four gallons, as the old presses turn out 36
gallons. The cake turned out by the new
presses will be better for feeding purposes,
as it will contain a less per cent. of oil. 1t
will only contain per cent. Of oil to l3 per
cent. of oil which thecake turned out by the
old presses has. The mill is far behind on its
orders. 1t finds no difficulty in selling all
the oil and cake it can make: The former
is delivered in New York at Al cents per
gallon the latter is sold in this and other
counties of the State.
Mr.. r.. n. Bennett, dealer in engines and
agricultural implements, has made an as
signment to Mr.. j. B. McFadden for the
benefit of his creditors. His misfortune is
due to his inability to make collections. He
has assets in the shape of notes and accounts
sufficient to cover his liabilities, but was
unable to realize upon them. He has been
q hardworl>ing persevering man, and fully
merited success. A meeting of the creditors
will take place on the Sth of February.

THE BURGLAR GANG.

Quiet remains in the Jail since the attempt
of six of the prisoners to escape on Tuesday
night of last week. Confessions of those in
the plot confirmed the Sheriff7s first theory
of their designs. Finding themselves COM
pletely balked in their efforts to drill hole
through the wall, they resorted to the only
plan remaining, viz: to make an alarm and
attract the Sheriff to the door at which they
were all congregated, and on the supposi-
ton that he would hastily open it, rush up
on and overpower him. The plan mscar-
'ried, however, as the Sheriff acted too eau
tiously to admit of falling into the trap.
Louis Broomfeld, the burglar, is implicated
as the leader Of the plot, and he and Frank
Johnson, charged with arson, and Larkin
Bratton, charged with larceny, have been
secured in irons.
Of Broomfield's gang, Erwin Barron and
Minor, alias Babe Dixon, have been arrested
in this county and committed to Jail on
charge of burglary. Henry Lane and Jim
Gillespie, arrested in Mecklenburg county,
n. c., have been surrendered upon requisi-
ton of the Governor Of this State, to the
Sheriff of Fairfield county, to answer the
charge of burglarizing P. Landeckers store
in Winnsboro, only few nights before the
arrest of BrOOmfield was effected.

THOMPSON FOR REELECTION.

We publish in another column, from the
Ne,rs a'ad Courier, communication to that
paper from Sumter county, advocating the
reelection of Governor Thompson. This
article but embodies the sentiments of a
majority of the people of the State. While
many other prominent and worthy names
have been recently mentioned in connec-
ton with this high office, we think it is en-
inently due to Governor Thompson that he
be elected for second term, and as prelim-
mary to the election, that he receive by ac-
clamation the unanimous nomination OF
the State Convention.' No words OF ours
can add to the eulogum of the Governor by
the writer of the communication, nor are any
necessary, when the spotless record of Gov
ernor Thompson is before the people and
his official acts "known Of all men,"

SOUTH CAROLINA IN 1854.

The Charleston Nevs and Courier of last
Monday issued four-page supplement con-
tanning a review of the industrial life of this
State, made up by special correspondents
from each county. The consolidated reports
of these correspondents is quite full and ex-
haustive, and though it must be admitted
that reports from the county correspondents
could not be absolutely correct, they are no
doubt generally reliable, and as in the case
of York county rather below than above the
actual figures.
These reports will accomplish much good
in laying before the world the prosperous
condition of South Carolina, and when it
is remembered that much of this progress
has been made within the last four or five
years, it is a matter upon which our people
may we'll congratulate themselves.
The manufactures in the State first de-
mand attention as a comparatively new
feature in the industrial history of the State.
Beginning with cotton manufactures, it is
seen that the value, in gold, of the product
of all the cotton mills in the State was as

A NEGRO DESPERATE.


THE negro mentioned by our Chester cor
respondent as having recently shot and dan
gerously wounded young Samuel Pressly,
in Cabarrus county, n. c., escaped arrest
and came to Fort Mill, in this county, near
which town, on Monday last, as we learn
from the Charlotte Observer of Tuesday, he
shot Mr.. Will G. Durant, constable, who
was endeavoring to effect his arrest. 1t
seems from the Observers account, that the
negro, Knox by name, quietly surrender,
dered when approached by the constable,
and as they were proceeding to Fort Mill,
Knox, seeing his opportunity, quickly jerk,
ed pistol from Durant and shot him down
in the twinkling of an eye. Mr.. Durant re-
ceived the bullet in his bowels, and the
wound is a dangerous one. With his re-
manning pistol he fired three shots at the
negro, but he made his escape.

L,ookO Out.

The Beatty Organ Manufacturing COM
pany. of Washington, New Jersey, has
recently failed, with total Indebtedness
of about $685., 900. $50, 900 of this amount
was due 10 employees, which has since
been paid with the money received from
persons ordering instruments. The Aasi-
cal Courier says:
Since the beginning of his trouble
about two weeks ago. his Indebtedness to
the persons who are awaiting their instru-
ments has largely increased.
Altogether his Indebtedness must now
be over $3.50, 600. In fact. it is difficult to
get at the exact amount, for it is increasing
at the rate of over 5000 day, from
which must be deducted the number of
organs he ships. which must be compari-
lively small. as he gets no capital to work
with and needs all the money he can get
hold of TO pay for his material to his
hands. and to put aside for the payments
of his notes, which begins in March
To Offset this enormous Indebtedness
Beatty owns about 100000 worth of
property. material, machinery, ETC. which
would bring about half that amount if
sold at auction"

of putting our citizens on their guard
