which full justice was done by all:
In the afternoon there was delightful
shower which served in the place of re

EDITOR THE BAMBERG HERALD:-In
your last weeks issue your Denmark cor
respondent, in speaking of county affairs,
says: IF our hustling Supervisor issued
checks, which he knew would overdraW
funds to his credit, he too must walk up

ticed that this is not charge, but an in
sinuation, and / am astonished that any
one should thus attempt to injure me
without knowing the facts. At the settle

had been overpaid $2,S4S.2G. went in

answer to the insinuation, and the tax

Hebrew and repeated in English; the
ring was given; the cups of JOY and OF
sorrow were presented to the bride and
groom, and the second ill-omcned glass
crushed to fragments. The benediction
