A MOnurCh's Death.

Laurens had a most distinguished Wis.
itor Wednesday morning, who met with
a most disastrous reception. 1t was a
glorious old gray eagle who had prob
ably flown hitherward from the blue
mountains or maybe from the far South
and was on his way to the Chicago fair.
Anyhow no halted a while on q tall
tree in the bottoms Of Little River within
a hundred yards of Law Auderson's
eye and rifle. Ho was a great bird and
great was his fall. Six feet, ten inches
from the tip of his left wing to the tip OF
his right were his measurements and
he had all the majesty and dignity Pc
culiar to bis race.
Being of the gray variety his fate is
taken here az oracular Of the early re-
peal OF the Sherman aw. Had he been
of a golden hue the incident would have
borne another i%nterpreta ton.

Laurens has a ~dispensary after all.
The Governor, upon appeal from his own
faction, made the county board OF con
troll wait for the legal time after the fill
ing of the petition; but he seemst to have
stopped there and done nothing to pre-
Ven the stufiing of the list of freehold

to an eighth of an acre Of land, by the
man who received as his reward an app

Adjusting tho Judiciary,

South Carolina, it seems, cannot
keep her political secrets at home.
If that state has surprised the
world with reforms in The last four
years, it will continue to astonish
its own citizens with political ma
mowers during the coming two
years with plot aud counter plot
among the reform factions.
There is a plot now brewing to
rehash the judiciary and some
strong political figures will go down
in the melee if tho administration
scheme goes through.
The Hon. Eugene B. Gary, pres
ent Lieutenant-GovernOr has been
marked by Tillman for slaughter,
for tho eason that he is not at the
nod of the administration.
The Hon. Ira b. Jones, present
Speaker of the House, whom Gov.
Tillman has made SO prominent in
the recent railroad cases is to be
made Associate Justice, if the pre-
sent scheme prevails. The Hon.
Samuel MCGOWAN, present Asso-
ciate Justice, is to be retired to pri-
vato life.
The greatest surprise will be
when it becomes known that Till
man has set his head to defeat At
torney General ID. A. Townsend,
who is ambitious for the Judiciary,
all because he could not manipu-
late the dispensary cases as the
Governor thought they should have
been done. Then again Tillman
is making q move to gather about
him men of moro ability than he
has been wont 70 have for, as q
prominent reformer said to-day,
that it is the only way Tillman
himself can become a permanent
figure in policies.
The plan to defeat Mr.. Townsend
it seems, is to give to him the choice
of running against Judge Wallace,
or or going in the Judicial district
of Judge Hudson, whom the re-
farmers are intent on defeating,
and then springing the Hen. John
Il. McLaurin, now membey of Con.
gress, and beat him. If Townsend
runs in the district Of Judge Wal,
lace he will be opposed by the Hon
r.. q. Waite, member of the House
and in case the reformers are not
strong enough with Watts theil
plan is to throw Watts forces t(
Wallace and defeat Townsend will
him.
Judge James Aldrich is to be re
tanned. Some forces are said to b.
concentrating on the presentmayo
Of Charleston, Mr., Ficken
who is a reiormer, to de
feat Judge Izlar, and in the even
of not getting enough strength
there then they will concentrate OF
the Hon. w. G. Bennett, OF Able
