D. J. Alexander Esq., acting solicitor. After organization his honor made a lengthy charge to the Grand Jury in which, aftdf particularly calling their attention to the oath they had taken to give true presentments of all violations of law and order, he descanted at some length upon the prevalence of armed bands ot “so called Ku Klux,” and appealed in a very feeling manner to the sympa thies of the Jury as gentlernen, and also to them as the guardians of the peace and dignity of the common wealth, to discountenance and en deavor by the force of moral power to crush out and nip in the bud these organizations which damage us po litically and has a tendency to ruin us financially by depreciating the value of our real estate, and check ing the tide of emigration that would otherwise flow in and utilize onr lands. The Court at present writing is progressing rapidly with the busi ness before it, and it is thought by some it^iflnbt'hold more than two or three days.

Editors Last Tuesday was (hdebd a gala day for the young people of our town. It had been set apart by the Union Sabbath School of this place as the season for their annual pic-nio or celebration, and for a week? or two before hand busy and losing hands were pre paring oako, pies and “goodies” to pleaso ‘this palates of the little folks, while the veiry worthy Superintendent assisted by qn efficient committee of the young gen -tiemen of the town had cleared up and yery comfortably arranged, one of the mpst pioturesque spots to be found in all the country around. An abundant supply of the best spring water was near at hand, while swings for the accommoda tion of the little folks were “swung up” to the majestio old oaks and gams in the grove. At an early hour troops of mer ry children were seen conrsing to this lovely spot, anticipating a dayfr'-enjqy-, ment, while larger boys and girls, gave themselves up with oareless abandon to the enjoyment of each others society. Old ladies and geutlcmen were making preparations for “tne feast of good things,” when as the farmers hardshell sermon runs, “Lo! and the windows of heaven were opened, and tho rains beat, and the floods posred,’’ and' 1 j cap assure yon fast horses, and buggie 8 and umbrellas as were at a premium for A short time, and young gent3 who pos sessed such necessary articles, had, to use ati expressive phrase, “a hog killing time.” Bat as a lawyer. would say, “Nevertheless notwithstanding the mfefrap&m of Hid festive ar rangements, in a short time the prepara tions had been removed to the Court House, and nnder the atmpives of the very estimable, ladjps, who superintend ed the arrangements, assisted by the above named and out honor ed! supArliitfcnde'nt Judgo Diehl soon, spread out to view such a. dinner as would hajre done credit to Delmonico of world wide celebrity, and one whieh was duly appreciated by those for whoso benefit it mtp intended, one of whom wag your humble servant.
