General Pryor Was Captured.

The Ne,cs and Courier is, we are
clad to believe, wasting its breath
when it charges our old fellow citizen
General Rodger A. Pryor with de-
sertion during the war.
We have read the whole story with
g desire to be historically correct in
onr opinion, and have deliberately
reached tie conclusion that the Ne,cs
and Courier has no case and should
be ruled out OF court.
General Wilcox, of the Confeder-
ate army, who was on hand when
PRYOR was captured, and who invest
ieated the matter, declares that the
accusation is San idle one, without
foundation" Captain Dudley, who
captured Pryor, makes affidavit that
he surrendered only when he saw
that escape was impossible. Dudley,
pistol in hand, said to his captive, ga
word from you or particle OF resist
ance and I shall drop you.
An accusation of that sort will not
stick to the General. There is no
truth in it whatever. It was certain
ly misfortune to be "gobbled" and
pitched into Fort Lafayette, but one
must have good sized log Of politl-
cal kindling wood in his eye to see
anv evidence of desertion in the case.
The war is over and we can afford to
lay aside personal prejudices and be
Just in iudgement.-M Y Herald.

Foreston News.

FoREsroS, July l6.-For the first
time we have to admit we are a little
dull. Only three warrants have been
issued by the trial justice since last
writing: one for injury to stock, one
for assault and battery. and the third
for rescuirg stock. These cases will
be examined some time this week.
The council also has some work be-
fore it of which you may hear later.
A shooting scrape occurred at
Greeleyville on Friday night of last
week in which Foreston negro,
Frank Lively, was dangerously hurt
in the left shoulder. He has been
brought here to the home of his par
ents, and is under treatment of DR..
Nettles. His chances for recovery,
at this writing, are slim.
The seasons are still high, and
crops are doing well, though Q little
foul in some instances.
Mr.. Hudgins has bis second crop

acre. He thinks he will give a close

The Case Against Gen. Pryor.

The New York Herald is positive
that the Me,rs md Courier "has no
case when it charges that Gen.
Roger A. Pryor deserted from the
Confederate army during the war.
The Neocs and Courierhas never made
such charge. It published the
statement OF Gen. Hemphill, of Abbe-
vile, S. c., upon the subject, and is
content to let the matter rest where
the witnesses have placed it.
What the Me,0s and Courier has
said, however, is that Gen, Pryor
does not represent the South upon
any public question, and that his
views on the tariff, the race question,
the proper policy for the President to
pursue in his treatment of the South,
must be accepted as Gen, Pryor's per-
sonal opinions in regard to matters of
which he knows very little, and about
which he can speak with no more au-
thority than q hundred thousand 9TH
er men who live in the North.
Gen. Pryor says he did not desert
from the Confederate army and has
produced strong proof to sustain his
assertion. He is entitled to the ben
eft of whatever doubt there may be
upon the subject. We only ask that he
devote his attention hereafter to the
practice of bis profession, and that he
shall not mislead the people of the
North about questions Of option in
which he is not directly concerned,
and of whose immediate bearings he
can have no knowledge. His resi-
dence of more than twenty-five years
in New York entities the South to the
grace of his silence.-Ne,vs and CON-

A liyely Fight.

Frauk r. Lively, Of Foreston, and
Bob Burris, better known as Black
Snake, of Williamsburg, both colorea,
got into a difficulty at Greeleyville
last Thursday afternoon. Black Snake
mad an old musket and Lively razor.
Lively with razor in hand started for
Black Snake, who retreated to where
his gun was hid and taking it up or
dered Lively to halt. This he ne
elected to do, and, Black Snake gave
him the contents, load of bird shot,
which entered his left arm just below
the shoulder, making hole big
enough to put a hens egg in it.
Lively, as soon as the smoke of battle
cleared away, again started for Black
Snake, who using his old musket as a
club, dealt him powerful blow across
his head, breaking the skull bone in
several places. Both wounds are Sc
rious, though Lively does not COM
plain of the head wound. The bone
of the arm is shot to pieces, every
shot in the gun having gone into the
arm. It was line shot for his heart,
and nearly got there, too. The doc
tor thinks amputation necessary, but
the negro will not. consent to it. 1t
is very doubtful whether he will re-
cover. No arrests have yet been
made. Lively is about nineteen
years old, and is q son of Rev. F. W.
Lively. He is married, and the
trouble originated in defense of his
wife's character.

A White hian Before a S0utll Carolina
Court Tor ASsaulting an Indian.

EDITOR MANNING TnIEs:-1n a re-
cent number of the Ne,cs and Courier
there was letter from correspon-
dent, dated July 4, which gave IN ac-
count of the cases tried at the York
vile court. Among them was one
that reminds US of Colonial days.
The correspondent wrote: John Bal
lard. white man from Lincoln coun-
ty, N. c., was next tried for assault
ing John Brown, q Catawba Indian,
with intent to kill. He was acquit-
ted"
We are so accustomed to regard
the Indians as an extinct race that it
seems strange that case like the
above should be tried in Southern
court. 1t reminds US that here and
there will still be found remnants Of
Indian tribes. The Catawba reserva-
ton is situated in York county, and
comprises less than 500 acres Last
fall the tribe numbered 90, of which
about 60 lived on the reservation.

The Crops in South Carolina.

On the first of June the cotton
crop in South Carolina stood at rs;
but since that time the average has
risen until it has passed by four per
cent. the average Of last year.
The average of the corn crop is
four per cent. above the general aver
age for the Southern States, and is
surpassed only by the States OF Texas
and Nebraska.
ice this y.s!5e e9:so,
age is above last year, by about three
per cent, an improvement OF seven
per cent. since the rains set in.
OF all the crops, however, in this
State the percentage of the peach
crop is far in the advance of all 9TH
er products, being rated at 100.
This year must have been a re-
markable year for peaches. for We no.
tee that it has also been claimed,
that there has never been such a
peach year in Georgia, as the present
year, both as to the size Of the crop
and the quality Of the fruit Charles

Attractive Dresses Win Husbands.

s'You had better let me make it up
for you. I know you'll catch a hus-
band If you wear it right, and you
can pay the $50 after you're married.
I tell you what it is, clothes are the
best investment young woman ever
put her money into.
That's what a Thirty-frst street,
New York, mcdiste had to say to a
brown-haired young woman who
wanted new dress she could not
afford, and this is what she said to
the writer:
"I make dozens of marrying dress
es. This girl here is not bad looking,
and if she were correctly dressed she
would be positively handsome. You
see she carries herself nicely and she
has plenty OF good points, but very
little money She is going off to a
fashionable watering place with some
friends, and 7 know that if she lets
ne make up this custard MORE as I
wish it will be the means of getting
her husband. The toilet is worth
s110 and I have agreed to let her have
it for $50. If she marries she can
pay me the $50, and if it makes no
impression on the men, why then I
am the loser. This talk about men
not caring what woman has on is
the worst kind Of nonsense. They
Gale so continually that they have
neither eyes nor attention for their
questionable friends.
eff I had an income of hut $40
week I would put SIS of it in clothes.
Why, sakes alive! let two women
enter street car, and the one that is
best dressed gets seat every time.
Clothes win, whether you so to
church, On a journey or only to city
shop One need not make show OF
herself, but if she expects to be no
ticed, and that's the first step to being
knowr, Sue must keep herself in nice
shoes, neat gloves and a fetchy dress.
You're not married, are YOU? But
you go out a good deal don't you?
"Well, I've a piece of India salmon
brocade here that I'd like to make
you for 800, and if YOU don't ensnare
a mans affections the third time you
wear it I'll allow YOU a rebate of $50. :"
