PraiBinY the Governor

COLUMBIA, S. G., Nov. 3O.-In his
special message to the Gene. al Assem-
6Gly last week regarding the opening of
Port Royal harbor, Governor TilIman
sounded a bugle blast for the welfare
OF South Carolina, and for many of the
southern and Western States as well
The wisdom of his recon- ia
admitted far and near, and, if adopted
will result IN inestimaLle benefit to a
large percentage of our people. That
his effort in this direction is apprecia-
ted is attested by the following tele-
gram received yesterday:
KANSAS CITY, Mo, Nov. 90, 1882.
TO Governor Tillman. Columbia, s. G.
Kansas City and the great West
sends its congratulations for your
efforts to open the harbor Of Port
Royal, the natural outlet for the
South and West.

a Lost BuY,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3O-The inter-
vention of the Interior Department has
been asked to aid in the recovery of a
boy supposed to be stolen by Indians.
Governor Fifer of Illinois writes to
Secretary Noble, stating that on the
21st of November, Earl Ray Morley,
the four-Year old son of j. G. Morley,
Of Newcastle, Colorado, strayed from
a camp on Rifle Creek, thirty miles
from Newcastle, and has not since
been seen or heard Of. The supposition
is that the boy has been taken by South
ern Ute Indians, who have strayed
away from their reservation. Secreta.
ry Noble has directed all Indian agents
in that region of the country to use
every effort to find young Morley.

LAKEWOOD, N. j., Nov. 24.-Mrs.
Cleveland had a most miraculous es-
cape from being dashed down an en-
bankment while out riding uiis after
noon. The horses attached to the car
riage which contained Mrs. Cleveland,
Mrs. +. Z. Freeman, Jr., and the Mes
SIS. Freeman, became frightened and
dashed away at < k-neck speed. Mr.
Freeman, Sr., who held the reins, guild
ed the enraged animals over narrow "
road and by deep chasm, and finally
succeeded in pulling them up before
any injury was done to the occupants.
The party was thoroughly frightened
and Immediately returned to the Free
man cottage, where Mrs. Cleveland Is
stopping. Mrs. Cleveland made very
light of the occurrence later in the day
when she became calm.

I}IRMINGHAM, Ah. Nov. 28.-Race
troubles have broken out at Whltesburg
among laborcrs on an extension of the
Nashville, Chattanooga and st. Louis
Railroad. A gang Of drunken negroes
last night set upon one If the contrac-
tors, a white mau, and were beating him,
when James Wood, another contractor,
inter!ered. The negroes turned upon
Woods and cut him to death with knives.
Several others white men had to flee for
their lives. A posse OF officers went to

The Seventh District.

The decision of the Board of State
Canvassers in the matter of the Con-
gresSlonal election in the Seventh Dis
Jrict was great urprise to both Dem
ocrats and Republicans, and will not be
endorsed by the white people of the
territory affected by the decision. The
returns as sent up to the State Board
gave Gen. Noise q large majority, and
Under the circumstances 1t would have
been better to have awarded him the
certificate. The fact that the State
Board is composed entirely of men who
belong to different faction of the
Democratic party from that to which
Gen. Noise belongs will make many
think that the decision was brought
about by political prejudice. We do
not believe this ourself, but there are
many who do, and nothing caa convince
them to the contrary. According to
our lights, we think Noise should have
been given the certificate, and the State
Board SHOULD have so decided. They
should not. have gone behind what the
County Board had done, as they were
right on the ground and had no doubt
fully investigated all the facts before
they rendered their decision, while the
State Board only had some of the facts
before them. 1t seems to us that the
State Board went little out OF its
way to nnseat Democrat and seat a
Republican from the Seventh Congress-
Ional District.

Rise In Prico,

AUGUSTA, Ga, Nov. 25.--All the
large cotton mills located here advanced
the price OF their brown goods owing TO
the heavy demand for them and the
marked advance in the price of cotton.
The advance in the goods has not, how
ever, up to this time been equal to the
advance in cotton, and the mills are de-.
manding full prices for new cotracts as
they have sold all the stocks on hand.

THlRTY-FIVE NEW JUDGES,
A Bill Introduced In the House to Estab-
lish County Courts.


COLUMBIA, S. G., Nov. 26.-- The bill
introduced by Representative Shuman,
| Of Greenville, to establish o new system
of government in his county is the nue.
leus from which general State measure
will be brought into life. Since the an.
nouDcemaut was made that this bill
would be introduced legislators from
other counties express the desire to
incorporate their counties in the enact
ment until the list inclueds Gresnville
Lexington, Rchlaud, Spartanburg and
number Of other counties.
Theu the question of the general
county government bill was introduced
and found numerous advocates.
There will be meeting in the city
next Saturday-a caucus of the advo-
cafes Of this measure-which will discuss
and promulgate bill to be advocated. .
A rough draft OF the popular measure
has been drawn up which doubtless i'll
cludes features of the bill they will
adopt.
The main provisions Of this messure
is as follows:
'Be it enacted that there shall he
established county courts which will be
organized by the judge thereof as soon
as possible after his election.
THAT county courts shall have exclu-
sive jurisdiction in all criminal cflenses
except murder, manslsu ghter, rape,
arson, grand larceny where value of
property exceeds 5000, and offences of
a like grade.
"That they shall have Jurisdiction in
all civil action aud proceedings of which
trial justices now have jurisdiction. The
bill then goes on to provide that the pro-
cedure and rules of tie court shall be
similar to those of the circuit court, aud
cases can be appealed to these courts.
The court meets on the first Monday of
alternate months. and panel Of thirty
jurors are to be summoned to try the
cases. The grand jury of the county is
required TO attend its sessions and shall
pass upon all indictments.
Ceases are to be tried by jury OF six
men, the defendant to be allowed two
peremptOry challenges. The county
court judge shall receive a salary of
81 ZOO, and be appointed by the governor
upon such recommendation as he may
see tit. His term Of office will be until
the next general election. A county
solicitor for this court shall be elected
by the people and De lawyer admitted
to practice by the supre ne court. This
attorney will receive a salary of $500
and mold office for tour years."
The effect of this bill if passed would
he to superocde to such an extent the
trial Justices that they would have little
more power than a notary public. There
ia a general sentiment apparent in the
Legislature to do something looking to a
uniform system OF county government
and THIS bill NAV be q law aL last.
