CHARLESTON, S. c., July Z, 1SSS.-The
last act of the Bond cases probably
was consummated in Court this morning.

member of the Bond family who was not

although his father and brothers had col
lected fraudulent policy on his life by
means Of falsely sworn certificates of his
death, came into Court and asked that IN
view of what had recently transpired his
name be changed. The following are the
salient points of the petition:
Petitioner was born at Savannah, Co.,
September, 26, 1862, his parents being Jno.
Henry Bond and Julia Purse Bond. That
he has resided here since January l, 1865.
That his father, Jno. Henry Bond, and his
brothers, JAS P. and Thomas Bond. have at
the late term Of Court been convicted of
crime and sentenced to the penitentiary,
thus rendering the family name infamous,
wherefore he prays that he may be allowed
to change his name from John Oliver Bond
to John Oliver Wesner. that being the fami-
ly name of his maternal grandmother"
The following order was made on this
petition:
''On hearing: the foregoing petition it is
ordered that the prayer thereof be granted
and that the petitioner be hereafter known
as John Oliver Wesner. J.J. NORTON,
Presiding Judge"

His INN ,agination Killed Him.

RDeEwAY, S. c., July III. r. Balch, a
young white IMAM, % years of age, died yes
terday of hydl:ophobia, resulting flom the
bite Of q cat. Balch was born and raised in
York County, near Rock Hill. and for some
time past had loeen in charge of R. 81. Corn
wells plantatio n. fifteen miles Northeast Of
Ridgeway, on the Wsteree River, in Fair
field County. One day last fall, while on q
visit to his home in York County, he espied
8 handsome cat On the side Of road along
which he was walking, which he thought
would make on acceptable present for his
sister. He appr ,ached the cat, which SEEM
ed perfectly docile and permitted him to
take 1t in his han .ds without offering resis-
tance; but rs soon as in was lifted from the
ground it becam furious and bit Balch
through the hand. Balch killed the catand
went on his way. thinking no more of the
matter. With the exception Of a sore hand
for few days h e experienced no i'll effects
from the bite, al I'd had dismissed the mat
ter from his min d.
On Thursday morning of last week Balch
was taken sudde My i'll, experiencing great
difficulty in br eathing. Dr.. Llnder was
summoned, but by the time he arrived the
young man was .1nable to swallow anything,
and soon went il ITO violent convulsions, ex-
hibiting all the symptoms Of hydrophobia.
Convulsion folio we'd eonvulsion, and the
physicians skill was powerless to relieve
his sufferings. When not in a convulsion
he was perfectly rational. and piteously beg
sed his friends and attendants to kill him
and put an end to his sufferings. His par
o1ysms were SO violent that he had to be
kept tied hand and foot all the time. He
fingered in intense agony week, until Fri
day evening, when death came to his relief.
Mr.. Balch was highly esteemed and az e1-
emplary young aan.

The Whining Post.

The Charleston grand jury are persistlng
in their demand that the whipping post
should be brought into requisition in the
case of wife beaters. The GreenTille News
goes one step further, and hints that the
whipping post could be used in many 9th
er ways to great advantage. Both are right
as far as they go, but they do not go tar
enough. That mode Of punishment should
be used in all crimes, which are not peni-
tentiary ofenses. We should have no
commitments to Jail for ten, twenty, or
thirty days" It is not right that the people
should be taxed to support man who has
committed crime. In the peniteEtiary
they are made to almost support themselves
by work, while in Jail they are but an en-
cumbrance upon the taxpayers of the coun-
ty.-Spa,tanburq Hrad

Notes from Jordan.

pleasant day, and work on the FARMS gen.
orally, was suspended in honor Of the day
which is most dear to every true American
citizen. spent the day in Santee Swamp,
aot for the purpose that Gen. Marion use
to visit that place, but for the pleasure Of
fishing, and was favored with luck to
catch fine mess.
We have been having fine rains for the
last few days which was very much needed
especially by the corn, which was about
gone up the spout. But it has taken a
fresh hold, and some of it is looking fine

Grand Lodge of Good Templars.

SUMTER, July THE next session o!
the Grand Lodge of the Independent Or.
der of Good Templars of South Carolina
will be held in Bamberg, S. c., Tuesday,
July II.
As thisi is the first meeting of our Grand
Lodge since the ratification Of the union Of
the Z. W. G. Lodge Of the World at Sara
toga last year, it is Of unusual importance.
The Bambers brethren will give COT
dial welcome to all who attend and large
meeting is earnestly desired.
Our order is steadily advancing through.
out the world. Its membership now, in
round numbers. is 100000, with $4,000
subordinate lodges, and the Grand Lodge
of South Carolina, as part of this vast
army OF Christian workers; should do its
full share in the effort to lift up the fallen

Common Sense Prevails.

The Herald has printed columns on col
umns of interviews on current politics, and
we give more space to them this morning.
It is instructive to feel Of the peoples
pulse-politicians preachers, merchants,
Wall street bulls and bears and the numer-
Gus classes and grades Of wage earners.
Moreover. it is the mission Of great news
paper to allow all sides to have their full
say-repubicans, democrats, labor organ
izations, prohibitionists, and even the
small army of cranks who have q patent
lever, double back action method of;taking
the world by the nape of the neck and
singing it into the millennium in the
twlnkling of az eye.
And you have noticed one peculiarity ID
all these interviews, perhaps-no, two pc.
culiarities. First, q profound sense OF
grateful relief because the campaign IS to
be fought on issues instead Of personalities.
The candidates are all beyond the reach
of billingsgate and yituperation. There is
no reason to impeach either their ability OF
their integrity. We shall therefore nave
clean discussion Of o grave subject OF ma
tional importance, and on that fact we con-
gratulate each other.
Another is that so many have for the
time at least, overstepped mere party lines,
and propose to decide the question On its
merits. Party bigotry gives way to the gen.
eral welfare. If man believes il high taxes
he will vote the republican ticket, whatever
his former affiliations have been, and II
he believes that low taxes are the need OF
the hour and that big surplus is wrong
done to the people, block on the wheels
of trade, drag on the country, he will vote
with the democrats and have done withit.
Itlooks as though we might have very
agreeable time between now and November.

Mrs. Cleveland Rorcotts the Bustle.

WASHINGTON, July 3.-The hustle must
go. The upper circles Of Washington soci-
ETY. have been thrown into hutter Of excite
mcnt by the announcement that Mrs. Cleve-
land has abandoned the hustle. Last week
she drove in and received a few friends at

own eyes when they observed the entire ab-
sence of the customary hustle. They look.
ed again, however, and saw that their first
impressions had been correct-NIrs. Cleye.

Fragments From FOrest0n.

FoREsToS, July 10.-The picnic given by
the Foreston Base Ball club at Martins
Lake on July 4th was quite nice affair.
We left here about 9 o'clock, arriving at
Lake about 10, when general amusement
began. Boat rides, fishing, etc., was the Or
der Of the morning. The grounds are large,
and the crowd was so much scattered that it
seemed impossible to get the picnickers to-
gether so that our candidates "a number of
whom were presently could have a chance to
address them. Passing by one squad we
saw man, we presume the orator Of the
day, mounted upon log, and hating a
moment we heard MIN exclaim: Ladies.
gentlemen, fellow citizens: thousand
hogs have died to-day in freedoms cause,
for this is our national anniversary-the
birthday Of our glorious republic; the day
upon which we may gratefully contemplate
our national privileges, etc. Icannot give
his speech verbatim, but will express the
opinion, 'he was getting there"
In due course of time dinner was an
nounced, which was all the most fastidious
could wish. After dinner the game came
on, and was really exciting. 1t resulted in q
score of ~ to Is in favor of the Wee Nees.
Our boys took their defeat bravelY, and
Justify cheered their Kingstree brethren.
Another game was played here on Satur-
day last between Foreston and Juneville.
The score stood % to 25 in favor of For

The colored people have recently built q
neat church and parsonage in the lower
part of the town, for which they deserve

The Clemson CoAegs.
from the Pee-Dee Index. ]

The department in the South Cafohna
College is well enough as it is, so faF as The
means granted can carry it, but the Com
bining Of the two funds IN one Will unS
doubtedly make better institution: When
the question of State control is settled;
there remains but the single question :
Which Of the two institutions shall givs
way? The only answer is that the South
Carolina College must give up its sgtie1t;
tural feature. The Clemson bequest can;
not go to the South Carolina Collsgs' put
the appropriation for the agricultural feat
ture in the South Carolina College can 50
to the Clemson College: therefore; it would
seem best that the South Carolina College
should surrender all claims for all agfIesl-
tural department, and that it shSta be-
given to the Clemson College. Bose lnss!-
tutions would then be the stronger sor i,
and each may then thrive and ptSspeE II
its destined course without antaggonizngg

have been obtained.
Prof. Smith is just beginning his sum-
since the recent commencement was at
Bishopville, thriving town in Sumter
county, where sS75 was added to the
funds of the College. His success was
something phenominGl, and encourages
him to expect much from the rest OF the
State.
The outlook for the College from every
point of view was never brighter than at

EsiYa the Guards q Chance.

Mr. EDrToR:-Allow me space in your pa
per to encourage our boys, the Manning
Guards, in perfecting themselves preparato-
~ to their encampment this summer at
Greenville: Last summer was at Spartan
burg and felt proud Of them. I heard sew
eral parties high in position say that the
Manning Guards was the crack company at
the Encampment. Now let the merchants
close their stores at 6 P. N. Tuesdays and
Eridsys CT each week before the Encamp-
ment and give the boys two hours to drill
and let every member of the company turn
out and perfect themselves SO that again
this summer we may feel proud of them.
The time is short; only two weeks remain
for preparation. Let US make long pull,
a strong pub. and a pull altogether, aud send
the Guards to Greenville second to none in

WILSON'S, S. c., July 9Th, 1sSS.--Mr. Ed
itor:-My attention has just been called to
communication in your paper Of June
the Doth over the nom de plume Of canon"
from Summerton, in which the writer states
that the A. C. Line had made sur
vey from Wilson's Mill to Summerton,
thereby conveying the impression
that the A. C. Line had an interest in
my business. For the information Of
canon" and all others who may have
been laboring under similar delusion, /
wish to state that the A. c. Line has never
made survey from Wilson's Mill to Sum-
merton, and that the only survey that was
made between the points mentioned WAS
made by myself. Hoping that this state
ment will set at rest the prevailing Summer
ton idea, originated by "Anon," that the
A. C. Line is endeavoring to reach out TO-
ward Summerton over my right-of-way, I
am respectfully, THOMAS WILSON.
