GIVEN TWENTY YEARS.
Reverend Abney Found Guilty Of At
tempted Assault in Aiken.

Aiken, Sept. 30.-Reverend Abney,
a negro, was tried this morning for
attempted criminal assault. The jury
retired and in a few minutes re-
turned with verdict of guilty with
recommendation to mercy. There
were some very extenuating circum-
stances in this case and Judge Gage
expressed his approval of the mercy
shown by the verdict.
He then told Abney to stand and
sentenced him to serve at hard labor
in the State penitentiary for term
of 20 years.
Abney was arraigned late Monday
afternoon, at which time, not realiz-
ing the gravity of the charge against
him, entered plea of guilty. Abney
was very much frightened when he
was arraigned. He narrowly escaped
summary punishment at the time.
Being a capital offense his plea was
not accepted by the court and John
R. Cloy, Esq, was appointed to de-
fend him.

Internal Revenue Receipts Increase.

Washington, Oct. An increase
of s12,O00,OC0 or more, if the pres
ent gain continues in the internal
revenue receipts, is estimated by
treasury officials. Since the begin
ming of the fiscal year on July last,
the internal revenue receipts have in
creased over approximately S3,OCO,-
600. The total receipts so far this
fiscal year are SG6,904,943, against
s63,972,600 during the correspond
ing three months Of year ago.
The steady increase which the in
ternal revenue is making is distribut-
ed all along the lines Of items making
up that portion OF the government S
revenue, but the largest gain is in
the receipts from spirits.
There was a big drop in the inter-
nal revenue at the time of the great
financial depression about two years
ago, and the increase, which the
officials do not attempt to explain be-
yond suggesting that there was less
conservatism than was evident fol-
lowing the depression, began in July.

Mystery to be Investigated.

Georgetown, Oct. 1.-Chief of Po-
lice R. w. Rouse is in receipt of a
letter from Philadelphia in which
was inclosed a photograph Of the man
whose body was found floating in the
Sampit river several days ago. The
photograph shows the man, his wife
and three small children, the oldest
of whom appears to be about Z years
of age.
The particulars contained in the
letter to the chief of police have not
been disclosed to any one except the
town officials, but from what can be
learned it appears that the matter
will be vigorously pressed, and it is
hoped that if the stranger came to his
death by foul play the guilty party or
parties will soon be revealed.
The relatives of the deceased
stranger seem to be in high state
of anxiety concerning the mysterious
death of the man, and they, with the
necessary aid of the oficers OF the
city, will no doubt make a thorough
Investigation of the mystery.

HE GOT WRATHY.
Yankee Who Wanted to Buy the
Hampton Mule, Got Sharp Reply.

A gentleman of Orangeburg hand
ed US the following interesting Item
few days ago:
Being an outcome Of the peculiar
accident by which Hampton lost his
leg, the following incident, which may
be youched for by more than one
worthy citizen of Richland, will
probably prove of interest, especially
to the survivors of those who served
under under that great calvary leader,
as it goes to show with what esteem
and veneration he was regarded by
his immortal followers. 1t will be re-
membered, that not very long after
his Inauguration as governor, Hamp-
ton with several other gentlemen,
set out on a deer hunt, a few miles
from Columbia, and that while riding
to his stand, the mule he bestrode
became frightened, and leaving the
road, ran away through the thick
woods, and the bride on each side
breaking at the bit, the accomplished
horseman, to save his life, withdrew
his feet from the stirrups, and getting
both legs on the same side of the
beast, leaped to the ground. In so
doing, he fractured a leg and it was
long ere he recovered from the effects
of the injury.
Shortly after the occurrence, a
North Western Yankee wrote to the
owner of the mule, the late George
w. Davis, of Richland, (who had
been "a soldier of the Legion,") Offer
ing him any sum not exceeding $500
for the animal, as 'tbig money could
be realized from exhibiting it as the
mule that broke Gen. Hampton's leg,
and this was the answer:
Columbia, S. C.,-----.-1S76.
Oh your Soul:
sThe mule that broke Gen. Hamp-
toms leg is not for sale, but II l
thought it would kick out your ID
brains, 1 would make it present to
you. GEORGE w. DAVIS"

 Washington, Jan.. 7.--Sharp criticism of the army and it's management is be- ing heard about the Capitol. Some of the most pointed, remarks have been published in the official record of the testimony taken before the House Committee on Military Affairs in con- nection with the army appropriation bill.
 It developed that $iO.4so had been expended for mileage in connection with the horsemanship tests ordered by the President. This money. 1t was explained. was disbursed in order to assemble the officers on what was deemed a proper course, such as at Fort Ethan Allan, in Vermont. and Fort Meyer. in Virginia.
 That $iO.000 Is a useless expendi- ture." declared Representative Anthony as well be taken at the posts where the oficers are, stationed. :" es
 'Yes:q or riding around fair ground" suggested Representative Slayden of Texas.
 Chairman Hull of Iowa, came to the rescue with a remark that produced laughter. He suggested 1t would be well 10 have the officers ride in schools with some one to watch them, as he understood that at the last ride at Fort Myer, some old colonel had to have a man on each side of him to see that he stayed on his horse.
 At this point, Representative Parker of New Jersey was moved to say:
 You know we have decorated forty old fellows who are no good, but who are broken down with drink, and that will save the Government a lot of money"
 Representative Capron of Rhode Island expressed a wish that the same test might be applied to members of Congress, whereupon Representative Price of Illinois suggested that the secret service would take care of that. as that is what the President wants."
