We understand that the citizens o
Blackville intend making efforts to carv
new county with Blackville as tn
comfy seat. We are not informed as t.
what territory they propose for the nev
county. but it seems to us that BarnWel
and Aiken are the only two counties from
which they can get territory, unless the
90 across the river into Orangeburg. W
would not discourage them in any way
but Blackville is not situated where
wonld be near the center of a new county
and the effort is likely to fail Tor tia
reason. Failing in this, however, we hea
they will annex to Bamberg.

farming lands, etc, are fine. Many of th
best whites intermarry with Indians, wh
are educated, intelligent, and retine'
Many men marry Indian girls, for til
government gives to each person
Indian blood 800 acres OF land anu SIT
in cash. He says our crops here cann'
begin to compare with those raised o.
