Mr.. EDITOR In publishing the formal
pleadings in the above case you omitted
my exceptions to Judge Norton's decree
and grounds of appeal. l am sure this
was altogether unintentional on your part,
and would not refer to it but for the TACT
that as matters now look (that is to your
readers) stand convicted Of refusing,
without reason, to discharge my official
duty. The publication of the decree was
not necessary, as it contained no facts, but
if published in due order with other plead
ings it should, by all means, have been
followed up with my exceptions" thereto
which had then been made. If the formal
decree furnishes the fact that am over
ruled by the Circuit Judge, the "excep-
tions" furnish the further fact that l
have taken the matter to the Supreme
Court of the State, whose rulings alone
can properly be said to "settle" legal
questioniin South Carolina. They also sug-
gest the possibility that the decree will be
reversed. have asked to be heard in the

it my duty to have appealed. The paper

1t Is said that down in Indiana MAN
went out hunting. While he was ont,
there came up big rain, and he sought
shelter in hollow log. The log soon
became soaked with water and ,swelled
until the aperture was too small for the
man to get out again. There he was in g
dilemma. He quickly reviewed his past
life, and when he became to remember
that he was not q subscriber to his County
paper but had been borrowing it for
years from his neighbor he felt so small
that he crawled out Of the log without any

STATEMENT OF CASE.

STATEMENT OF CASE.
VIII. Frierson, the Respondent, excepts
to the order of Judge Norton overruling
his return herein upon the following
grounds, to-wlt: -,
/. Because il is the duty Of the County
Treasurer to determine for himself, from
the character of the claim, designated on the
face of the check the particular fund out
of which it is payable; and 1t is equally
the duty of the County Commissioners
clearly to so designate the nature Of the
claim, and his Honor erred in not 80 hold
ing.
3. Because the check issued to the Re.
lstor and set out in this proceeding did
not designate the character of the claim it
was designed to pay with sufficient cer-
tainty to enable the County Treasurer
thereby to determine from which fund it
was payable; and his Honor erred in
holding that the County Commissio
might relieve the doubts of the Treasurer
by designating the fund.
3. Because the County Commissio
have no authority by Law to direct or
instruct the County Treasurer from what
fund to pay any check.
4. Because the claim for which Relators 9
check was issued was for building rock
pillars to bridge across Twenty-Three
Mile Creek, as is admitted, and is payable
from the fund appropriated for the pay
ment of ordinary county expenses, while
the check is drawn upon the Permanent
Improvement Fund.-" which is appropria-
ted by special Act exclusively to pay for
s'macadamizing or fixing the worst places
in the public roads, or constructing rock
eulverts where necessary across said roads,
a payment Of the check as directed by the
County Commissioners would have been
misapplication of this fund, and his
Honor should have so held.
S. Because the County Treasurer is re-.
quired by law to keep each County fund
separate and distinct, and to pay each
claim from it's appropriate fund; and he
is subjected to heavy penalties for o
violation of this duty.
6. Because it was error in his Honor
to hold that the act of the County Com.
missioners in CHASING this claim as within

quent, and soon there will be an ire
pressible uprising against the over
head wire unless some effective method
of insulation is discovered.
At an inquest in New York over the
body of man who had been literally
roasted by an electric-light wire that
he had accidentally grasped while
making some repairs on the roof of his
house, one of the officials of an electric
light company frankly admitted that
all electric-light lines overhead are
dangerous. Further than this he said:
Cali wires are dangerous, whether
thoroughly insulated or not, and my
advice to people who have any desire
to live is to let them alone" As the
desire to live<is general, and as it is
not always possible to let electric-light
wires alone, the safety of the public
demands that all electric wires be
placed in conduits or subways where
there can be no possibility of acci-
dental contact. With the overhead
wire. injury has resulted through
mere induction; and in Toledo recent
ly a young man was instantly killed by
current Of electricity which entered
his body through shutter which he
had opened out against an electric
wire.
The problem of insulation is one
that the electric-lighting companies
must grapple with all their energies;
for if perfect insulation can not be es-
tablished, all electric wires must go
under ground. Milwaukee Wisconsin.

RESPECT OLD AGE.
1t Is as Much Entitled to Respectful Con-
sideratiOn as Royalty

1t Is as Much Entitled to Respectful Con-
sfderatiOn Royalty
Children should be early taught to
respect old age, taught too, that old
age is as much entitled to respectful
consideration as royalty.
VeneratiOn is not a distinguishing
trait of the average American youth;
very early they begin to refer to their
parents as 1.-THE old man and the old
woman"
1t seems to me that an old person is
entitled to respectful admiration. be-
cause of the vast amount of experience
they have had, for one reason at least;
for what can one who has not lived, say
twenty years in the world, know about
it compared with one who has lived
fifty, sixty, or eighty years?
Old people are often feeble physical.
ly and need all the help and tender,
loving care that the younger and
stronger ones can give. Children too
often forget all that their parents have
done and suffered for them, all their
watchful care, and some never realize
how dear their parents are to them un.
til they are taken from them forever
We have heard women say that they
never fully appreciated their mothers
until they were keeping house for
themselves, and little children were
claiming their care. What is a more
pitiful sight than to see an aged couple
with children who are unloving and
Cnthankful, and who even begrudge
their parents home, but they will
surely receive their reward sometime.
Of course, much of the disrespect
shown by the young to the aged is due
chiefly TO thoughtlessness and not hard
hearts; so we must help our children
by example as we'll as precept to
venerate old age; teach them that old
age is honorable and entitled to all the
loving care and consideration that we
can bestow upon it.-United Presby-
terian.

Charity Laws of France.

In France there are no public funds
for the relief of the poor, and private
charity is almost wholly relied upon.
1t appears, however. that French laws
are very much opposed to private as
sociations or individuals distributing
charitable funds, and require that this
should be done by officials. The ma
chinery provided for the purpose are
bureaus composed of persons two
thirds of whom are nominated by the
prefect of the district and one-third
by the communal authorities. No
person can found charitable institu-
ton and support it with his own money
without express authority from tho
state, nor can he leave by will sum
of money for any private individual to
distribute in charity; that duty must
be performed by an ofiejal,-Londop

The Health of Young Wives.

So much depends upon woman's
health that [ wonder young wives do
not consider it more. Let you physical
well-being be a chief consideration.
Let nothing deter you from taking
your daily walk. Have plenty of sun
shine admitted into your house. Spend
as much time as possible in the open
air. While generally speaking, early
rising is healthful, yet if you feel that
you can not get up at the regular hour,
do not do So Nature never mistakes,
and if she demands another hour of
slumber. you will be the gamer by
yielding. Have your meals at proper
times. If your husband is detained at
his shop beyond the regular dinner
hour, let no sentimental consideration
induce you to wait for him beyond
fifteen minutes. By adhering to this,
you will develop in him remarkable
punctuality. Do not let trifes ruff1e
your serenity. 1 am satisfied that
cheerfulness does more to promote
health than all other efforts. Louis

MY oLD-FAsHIoNED GIRL

AS the clock on the stars ticks the minutes
away
sit with my pipe at the close of the day,
And in the light smoke-wreaths that softly
arise
Are numberless visions in fanciful guise.
In sun-bonnet olden dreamily see
Two roguish blue eyes glancing shyly at me,
The incense arises in one lazy curl,
Enframing the face Of My Old-fashioned Girl.
Hook once again in her soft azure eyes
Live over our meetings meath Jrne's tender
skies
AS we strolled side by side down some shadowy
lane,
Or slkirted the acres of ripening grain,
While If but harken, hear even yet
Her fairy-like steps in a dim mlnuet
And there comes from the smoke in delicate
whirl
The willowy form of My Old-fashioned Girl
Ihear the sweet voice that heard years ago,
And her hand touches mine as we pass to and
fro
When we meet for an instant in old Money
Musk
Or tenderly clasp it at midsummers dusk,
And each haunting vision in fragrant disguise
Grows fainter and fainter and finally dies.
Yet one face is left me- as pure as pearl,
The face Of my darling-My Old-fashioned Girl
In the sweet little miss who climbs up on my
knee
To kiss grandpa goodnight" there is some
thing see,
Unseen by all others, deep down in her eyes
A something within them that half hidden lies,
She wonders, perhaps, why hold her small
hand,
But if 1 should tell her. she'd not understand
That grandmother yonder, beyond the smokes
curl,
Was once and to-day is, My Old-fashioned Girl

NINE. DE CASTIGLlONE.
A Favorite of Napoleon Who Was Fa
nous Throughout Europe.


The rumor which was current on the
boulevards of Paris few days ago that
Nine. de Castiglione, the notorious
favorite of Napoleon I'LL, was dead,
revives a number of recollections OF
the once famous beauty.
In the year 1859 there appeared in
Paris a Count and Countess de Cas-
tiglione. They were Italians of good
family, who bore with them letters of
introduction to the best houses in i'm
perial society. They appeared to have
plenty of money at their disposal, took
handsome hotel on what was then
called rAvenue de Imperatice, now
known a rAvenue du Bois de BOu-
logne, and entertained in an unosten-
tatious manner. Nine. de Castiglione's s
beauty soon became the talk of the
town.
Never had Paris seen such perfec-
tion in womankind. 1t was impossible
for painter or sculptor to find fault
with her features or the lines of her
figure.
She was brunette, with a rich,
clear southern complexion. Her eyes,
of deep violet, were shaded with long
black lashes, which boulevardiers de-
clared took her half an hour every
morning to unknot Her hair was
blue-black. Her nose was of the bold
Roman type, which is so rapidly dis
appearing in fair Italy. When she
opened her luscious red lips she dis
closed two dazzling rows of faultless
teeth.
But beautiful as Nine de Castig-
lione's face was, many thought her
figure even more perfect. Her arm
was a dream, and a model of her foot
is still preserved as "a thing of beau y
and a joy forever" among people who
live and reveled in Napoleon Ill s
brilliant court.
The Italian beauty soon succeeded in
gaining the Emperor's favor, and the
Carbonari of Italy, whose enmity he
had gained through his wrestling from
Italy the fair province of Savoy,
thought it would be an easy thing for
her to inveigle him to some place
where his death could be brought
about
While the plot was being matured,
LA Castiglione" appeared at fancy
ball given in honor Of some foreign
royalty, and her costume shocked the
Empress Eugenie to such an extent
that she refused to recognize her and
had her removed from the room.
A stormy meeting between the En-
peror and the beautiful Italian fol-
lowed; she raved madly and threatened
his death if the insult offered her as
not atOned for. She was finally paci-
fed, the Emperor promising that the
next night, at the opera, he would
bow to her SO that all Paris would
know that she still held his favor.
The plan was carried out and the E m
press Immediately left the house and
shortly afterwards left France and paid
a Tong VISIT to Scotland. 1t is said
Queen Victoria's pleadings alone pre-
vented her suing for divorce.
Meanwhile, the Carbonari had de-.
cided that Napoleon's time had come,
but LA Castiglione" betrayed the plot
to the head of the police and the ar
rest of the conspirators followed =
