Wa, tha Grand Jurors, sworn, chosen and •apaanelled for tbo September Term of Marion Superior Court, In bringing oar labors to do**, beg leave to make the following general After careful examination of the exhibit made lo our body for Insolvent costa by the officers of the late County Court, we have approved and allowed to the dodge, $51 30; to the Solicitor General, $253 75, and to the sheriff $2". 00. Upon examination of the Treasurer’s books, we find that he bee received for oonnty purposes tjy sum of $4,153 27; and has disbursed, for which baa proper Touchers. 82,202 77; leaving a balance on band of 81,950 CO; of pauper fandi we find be has received tho sum of $3,250 32; and disbursed, for which he has proper vouchers, the sum of $1,886 60; leav ing a balance of $1,863 72. In view of tbe favorable condition of our finances, we reoommend that the Ordinary as- m a tax, not to exceed one hundred per cent, on tbo State tax for tbo ensning year. We ere pleased to be able to roport the books of tbe Clerk of the 8nperior Court and Ordi nary in superb condition, reflecting great eredit upon those officers. Tbe roads generally in the county are report ed in good condition, especially in “Kincha- foonee" and “Cnt off” DUitriota. In Rod Bone District there bee been no Jnstioe, and conse quently tbe roads have been neglectod. The fault we understand is with the Governor, who failed or refused to commission the duly elect ed officers. We are unanimously of opinion that it ia the dnty of the Ordinary forthwith to appoint a commissioner for this District, and tee to it that he have the roads in hia District worked immediately, so that the crops now ready for market may be conveyed over them witbont delay or danger; and we earnestly in vite h|| attention to this matter. Wo recom mend that the road leading from Glenalta to Talboton from near William Walker’s to As kew’s house, on the opposite side of tbe creek, be done away with. We recommend that tho road from Ben Powell’s to where it intereeets tbe road leading from Daniel Lane’s to BclKa Mill be made a pnblie road, and handa along the same be assigned it. The road from Colum bus to Amotions, from Jeff Day’s Old [Hera occurs a hiatus in the copy furnished. Tbe paging in tbe manuscript ia all regular, and the word "old” closes page two. Page three then begins as follows.—Editors Tnx- oaarn:] We recommend tbnt the bridge at HeLangh- tin’s Mills be repaired at ouoe, aa it is over this bridge that most of onr eitixena transport tbeir • trope to market, and it ia represented to be in an uuMfe condition. We also request that the Or dinary confer with (no Ordinary of Talbot coun ty on the propriety of bnitdlng a new bridge at Chandler's Mills. Onr Conrt-hnnae end Jail ar» found to lie in very bad oondition, and we in vite tho attention of tbe Ordinary to the recom mendation of our predeoesson at tbo April Term on this subject. We congratulate our fellow-citizens on the evidence of peaee and harmony that prevail among all clames of the community, worn down and exhausted by a pro tracted and devastating civil war. Stripped of tbe most of onr property by the aetion of the Federal Ooveramsnt, and left unaided to begin the race of life anew, and procure a competen cy for ourselves and familiea, with old debts pressing upon ns aqd new onea accumulating, wa have abandoned pursuits ones a pastime, and pleasure and betaken ourselves to the great and paramonnt business of attempting to build np our waste places and to recover to aome ex tent at least, onr fortunes. Men thus engaged bare littlo leisure or desire to diatnrb tho peaoe of soeiety, bnt on the contrary, respect the lavra and aid, to the extent of their ability and influ ence, In seeing them duly executed. Such we believe to be the state of aooiaty in this county. "Let ns have peaoe;” we pant for it aa the hart panteth for the water-brooka. Whatever may be the state of society in other sections of onr once proud and noble old commonwealth, we send greetings to all within onr own limits and byonrf, that we are in a state of profound peaoo with ourselves and the mat of mankind, and humbly crave that the hand of power. State or Federal, may not be raised to disturb it Let us have peaoe. In taking leave of His Honor, Judge Johnson, we tender him onr thanks for tho prompt and impartial discharge of his duties, and to Mr. Solicitor General Thornton, onr oompHments for courtesies to this body.

Tnx Nxw Passxwoxb Dxror.—This structure, which was commence J in 1860, is now finished, except as regards psinting the top, and plaster ing aud painting tho offices end rooms. Dur ing the wsr end until last year work was sus pended. The building is quit# s handsome one and admirable for the purposes for which it is naed. It is airy, well lighted and ventilated, and oould not bo made more convenient Three tracks have been plaoed within. Tho frontage, on the South, measures 127 feet, nnd the inte rior of the building 81 feet in width. The ex treme height from the floor to the top of the ventilator, ia 41 feet The brick walls are 22 feet high. At the South end are placed two jeket offices, and in one wing, a ladies room fitted up with taste and provided with overy convenience, and in the other, apartments for baggage. The comfort of gentlemen has also tvoetved attention. Being open at both ends, the engines can pull or back through tho shed. w>d the passenger cars always kept under shel ter. This is a great advantage in disagreeable weather. Since this depot was built, (and all the trains have jnst commenced running into it) the number of visitors to the arriving and de parting trains has largely increased. It is the only respectable depot erection that Columbus can claim. The straetnro was designed aud ex ecuted by Barringer Jb Morton. Both, the orig inal sad altered plans were drawn by Capt M., of the firm.—CUrnnhw* Sun. Gxs. Tom Joedas, of whom peoplo in Char- Jctton cherish recollections a good deal more lively than agreeable, scorns to bo cutting quite » figure in his new roU of Cuban liberator. He “** addressed “to the people of the Unite States," in behalf of the revolutionists, an a] P«»L written in th^t inflated and frothy sty.* which xiArkc-vl l;is official papers while chief of •Uff.andby which so much undeserved ridicule w** brought upon tho unconscious Beauregard. Cuba, he tolls us, does not need men, though WUitns would be welcome to a country the difficulties nnd dangers of which have been touch exaggerated. She does need, however, clothing and medicines. “Hundreds of men, he writes, “are standing in my Light almost nakedand of the Cubans, he •Lja that men more willing to become soldiers he never saw. This is what Jordan thinks of the Cubans. YYe should like to hear what the Cubana think of Jordan.—CkmHuton Nctes. Th* rumors current of the serious illness of Jamei Gordon Bennett are quite unfounded. Grant aa a Bronx*.—Mr*. A. G. Brewer, formerly Mias Cox, of Holly Springs, Mississip pi, in a published letter, make* the extraordina ry charge that General Grant and wife carried off silver plate from her father's boose, which they occupied at Holly Springs. Some of the articles ore minutely described, and among them a silver waiter, marked with the name “Mary Annealy, 1750.” “This waiter,” says Mrs. Brewer, will be readily recognized in the Grant manaion at Washington. That and sev eral other articles of value thatfeamo from the Sonth may be recognized there." What Reconstruction will so roa Virginia. By tho provisions of the new Constitntion tho stay law is abrogated and the Legislature ia prohibited from passing any law to stay tho col lection of debts. This will bring most of the land property in the State under the hammer of the Sheriff, as soon as the State is reconstruct ed and the new constitution becomes the law.— It will be a aonree of much hardship to all who owe heavy debts, and have large judgments re corded against them. A large portion of the judgments arc in favor of Northern creditors against merchants who in torn hold judgments against the farmers. Gkxtral Grant and Cota.—A 'Washington letter, in the Baltimore Gazette, says that as soon as ho returns to tho city either the inde pendence or the belligerent rights of the Cabans will be recognized by Presidential proclamation. At least such was his expressed purpose when last in this city. He also declared his intention of retaining possession of the “seized" gun boats building iu New York and New England for Spain. Grand Fuzz Barbecur.—The citizens of Wills Valley, give a grand free barbecue at Allen’s Spring, 44 miles from Chattanooga, on Satur day, tho 21th inst., as a compliment to the capi talists engaged in constructing tho Alabama and Chattanooga Railroad., This is a compliment well merited, and will, no doubt, be highly ap preciated by tho parties.—Constitntion. Crops in Coweta.—From conversations with many farmers, from different sections of the county, we are convinced that the com crop is a medium one, but not enough to supply the wants of the people. The cotton crop has been cut abort at least one-half.—Kelt nan Herald. The pugilistic fraternity of New York are in a state of lively excitement at the arrival from England of the celebrated Knight of tbe Fist. Mr. Jnmes Mace. This distinguished gentle man is said to be in excellent condition, and as his friends say he comes here in pursuit of pro fessional business, we may look out ere long for another “great mill.” Tin: Avondale fund is so steadily increasing that (here is little doubt now but that it will reach the $250,000, which is desired and needed to make a permanent fund. There is now a grand total of $46,81$ 60 from all sources, and of this sum, $1,021 was raised in the town of Pittsion. Pa., on Saturday. Tho bulk of the subscription thus far has come from New York. The senior editor of the New Orleans Pica yune. on his retnm from a two months’ stay in the North and East, remarks that “with public opinion at the North far more tolerant than ever before, with an earnest disposition there to carry capital to tbe South rather than take it away, and with a bountiful crop insuring inde pendence nt borne, we may all be hopeful. The future of the South will be one of progress and improvement.’’ The practicability of a single-rail railway has been thoroughly tested in Franee, and with sno ot aaftd results. The novel feature of the inven tion consists of a single rail, like a long ribbon, extending along one side of tbe road. Oae wheel, placed at the forward part, alone bears on this rail, while the other two wheels rest on the ground. The cars are furnished with two w heels, placed underneath in their long axis, which rest on the rail and support their weight, while two other wheels, destined to preserve the equilibrium, are placed outside. Ilurned Alive. The Augusta Constitutionalist, famishing the particulars of the late catastrophe on the South Carolina Railroad, which was announced in the telegrams Sunday morning, says: About 2 o'clock yesterday morning, the up pAaaenger train from Charleston reached the Congarec trestle, across tho track of which a de cayed tree bad fallen. The train was made up of two passenger coaches, filled with passengers, and the mail, baggage and express cars, besides ten crtwelve boxcaraheavilyfreighted. Immediate- ly,<>efore reaching tho break in the road, caused by the fallen tree, which had broken the super structure of the trestle for several feet, one of the firemen, Charley Bums, discovered tho c..a*un, but thought it the shadow of a tree across the track. When still nearer, he diACovered its | true character, but too late to stay the progress of the locomotive. wLich jumped the break, and meeting no track on the opposite side, keeled over into tbe abyss, twenty feet below, thirteen freight ears following and falling one upon an other into the chasm. The locomotive in falling caught tho engineer, Mr. Seaborn Hargrove, who was bnried beneath its pondoroua weight. Mr. James Gilbert, fireman, was also entangled in tho wreck of the locomotive in such a manner that extrication was impossible, and his body, if not killed outright, was completely roasted to death by ILo fire m the engine. As soon as the shock was felt, Conductor Evans hurriedly ascertained the cause and dis covered the horrible death hanging over his en gineer, whom, when he reached the engine, by sliding down the trestle timbers, be found still alive. The moat earnest and laborious exer tions were pnt forth by Condnctor Evans and others to rescue the unfortunate man, who re tained his consciousness and appreciated the foil extent of his terrible position and the niter hopelessness of his relief. By this time, the oars next the engine were discovered to be on fire, which was observed by tbe engineer, who calmly importuned hia friends to leave him to his manifest fate and protect themselves from tho burning wreck winch threatened to fall upon them in • few minutes. With • kindly message to his wife, he annotmoed hia willingness, “to go,” and calmly folded his arms across his breast, to await the terrible fate which hnng over him. Finding all efforts to extricate him fntile, with heavy hearts, tbe friends of this be- roio man were forced to withdraw themselves from farther exposure to the fiery death which was suspended over them, and leave him to his awfnl fate. ■ The bodies of tho two men were extricated from the wreck daring the day yesterday. As if dying with folded arms, tho right hand and left arm of the engineer was bnmed oompletly off, together with his legs at tbe knees, and other parts of hia body charred to a complete crisp. The head and both arms and legs of the fireman, Gilbert, were burned off, presenting one of the saddest spectacles upon wich human eyes ever rested. Of all tbe harrowing scenes of the terrible disaster, the horrible death and moltilations of these unfortunate men were most melancholy, and claimed the sympathy of tbe atonteet hearts. The other fireman, Char ley Borns, was severely scalded nnd badly bruised, bnt unoontcious. as it were, of the ex tent of his injuries, was enabled to extrioite himself from the wreck and walk out of danger. Although suffering greatly yesterday, he was cheerful, and was brought from the soene to BranchviUe, by Conductor Moore, whose train arrived here last night, and to whom we are in debted for many of the particulars which we give. He was carried to Charleston, bis home, and there are strong hopes entertained of his recovery. Tho remarkable preservation of the passes- ira from the dangers which threatened them the oommon rain and destruction of the train, by fire, ia attributable to tbe fact that the ears in advance of the passenger coaches com pletely filled the break and chasm, leaving the passengers unharmed on the track, when tbe two passenger coaches were uncoupled from the burning train, and shoved to a safe distance down the track, by which they were preserved from destruction. Thirteen heavily laden freight eats, locomo tive and the baggage car arc piled in one oom mon rain, with abont sixty or seventy feet of the trestle destroyed by the fire. Tbe origin of the Are ia confidently attributed by aome of the passengers to matches shipped among the merchandise in the freight can. Others regard it as haring been communicated from the locomotive to the trestle, and thence to the freight can. THE GREAT CHILL AND FREER HYPELLER Bagging. Salt and Ties.

Another advantage is. when yon get >chofieWFi Press, yon have a Press for all tune, and one not liable to decay or breakage, as is the ea*e with the old wooden screws, and m -1 other Iron screws .imi petases This is evident from the fact that tho screw is iron, cither wrought or cast, ard the frame.* are of wrought iron, and no part of the Press liable to decay loaches the ground. The frames may be mode of wood, at tbo option of the planter. Planters may purchase either tbe screw and nut alone, and put the frame and box of wood to it thenBelvra. or may purchase the screw, not and iron frame*, and put the wooden box to it, or they may purchase the Press complete, with screw, nut. iron frames and box. making the mo.«t com plete Frees in use.
