The forthcoming session of Sumter

being one of the busiest for some time,

showing more business than usual.
The May term was completed in two
weeks, but the November session is
going to last much longer.
Many cases will be Investigated by
the grand jury this time.
|. And when the several felony and
hosts of misdemeanor cases are docket
ed the total will present formidable
array and engage the court for some
time.
The trial of George Johnson, color
ed, for the killing of Ledbetter, and
several similar cases will consume
time, while the trial of j. T. Dent for
forgery is likely to consume quite a
bit of time, besides proving one of the
most interesting cases of the docket.
Interest in this hearing is widespread.
It is not believed now that Dent will
succeed in making the bonds of $4,000
required, and the prospect is that he
will remain in Jail until the date of
trial.
The following grand jurors will
serve at the next term of court:

What a fortunate provision of nature
it is, that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be it's
grief to discover, in the height of it's
blooming glory, that a canker fed at it's
heart, and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is a veritable
store-house of pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness have
cast gloom over the lives of thousands
of young women, but thanks to the in
VestigaNons of scientists the true cause
of hair destruction is now known to be
a germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair follicles. Newbro's Herpicide
