So far as our mechanical knowledge extends they have made a disoovery that will he of incalculable benefit to all cotton producer*. ► ♦♦■4 The County Judgeship. Gov. Colquitt has appointed and commissioned Judge James B. Neal, of Thomson, to the office of Judge of the McDuffie bounty Court, in place of Judge William Johnston, whose term expires in March. But there seems to be solve mistake or misunderstanding about this appointment. Judge Neal inform* ns that the application for the nppomtioeur wra* mu tie, not for himself, but ft. W. H. Neal Es<j., and that, the error must have occurred from a con fusion o* the names. He has already taken steps to have the mistake corrected. In the meantime we withhold our oon gratulatioi s untill we know to whom they properly belong. Salem Butcher, K*q. gcutlAnan hits been appointed Governor Colquitt to the office of Su itor General for this Judicial Circuit. He is comparatively a stranger in this Section of the Circuit, but iu Augusta, where he ha* practiced his profession for several years, he is well and favorably knowu as a geutlemau of good legal abil ity h and high moral and social standing. He s well known to the newspaper fraternity ns an accomplished and bril liant Journalist, and is regarded ns one of the ablest writers iu the South. The people of this sectiou of the Circuit will give Mr. Dutcher a generous welcome and a hearty support in the discharge of the duties of his office, m Valentine Party.

The matter i iu charge of a committee of ladies whose names guarantee that the amusements of the evening will be elegantly and successfully conducted. The people at are asked to come, paying for admission twenty-five cents. •They are also requested to come in cos tume, if convenient. Coming iu this way, they will be presented with Valen tine Rosettes, and some time during the evening a search will be made for each one's Valentine. Those not wishing to come in character can get a rosette by paying for it Refreshments will be - provided and young and old are invited to come. .Clarge number of ladies and gentlemen from this and adjoining coun ties have been invited, and the present prospect promises a large aud brilliant a-semblage in honor of St. Valentine. — —-— Brad. An moat of onr readers already know, our old friend Brad Ivey has just entered j upon his ninely-uinth term as Sheriff of , Columbia oouuty. He was recently j inaugurated at Appling, in the presence of a large congregate n, aud with appro priate and impressive ceremonies. His inaugural address is pronounced, by those who heard it, to have been the finest specimen of pathetic eloquence on the American continent. We were prom ised a copy for publication, but it has failed to come to band. Through the kindness of a friend, however, we are enabled to give the grand pen,rati -n, in which he soared iuto the realms of poetry and electrified hia hearers with the following: “Behold me I* he warbled, “beho and me again— Behold me onoe more at my post; Iv'e rid and Iv’e summoned through j - thunder and rain And I'm ready to thunder and summon , again Till jurors and witnesses pass in their checks * l Then I’ll follo’w from this world into the ! I next I And banged if I don’t summon a j I ghost!” Lincoln Items. ..^ In a private letter from our esteemed correspondent, “Nicholas,” in Lincoln oouuty, he sends 03 the following Items.

Very Pleasant. Last week onr dingy little office was j honored with the presence of three of McDuffie’s fairest daughters—Mrs. j O’Neal, Miss Harrison and Miss Benton. Of course such an event, ns complimeti- j j lory as it was pleasant, is uot to be for ! gotten. Their bright smiles and merry j | laughter amidst the dust and gloom of : ! our country priuting office was a beautiful contrast, to which memory will often j revert with gratitude and regret—grati j tilde for the brief vision of lieanty and ! romance and sunshine which their visit ! conferred, aud regret that the editor of , onr Up-Towu Department was not pres -1 ent to do justice to the occasion, s-Nat j mnlly aud inevitably, like the immortal ! Wegg, he would have “ilrapped into I poetty,” and dashed off something like ! this : “There ia a shady side of life, And a sunny side as well, And ’tis for every one to say On which lie likes to dwell ; For every one unto himself Commits a grievous sin, Who bats the blessed sunshine out And shuts the shadows in. On this at least I am resolved— If e’er they come agin To bar all other shadows out And lock that sunshine in." —• • * .11 arrlast's In (icorgla. Iu Greene comity Jan. 25, Mr. Oscar E.

They arrive from every quarter, and are un merciful. “They come, nobody knows where from; aud go, nobody knows where to." This may not be the exact quotation, but If lunk I’ve got the sub stance of its Last week sixteen of them were in town, not including the editors. lam particular about stating this, because I j think it will- be a source of gratification to Col. Moore, of the Constitutionalist. He seems greatly troubled in mind, here of late, about the editors of the Joito nal. I very much doubt if he ever says his prayers at night without mentioning the editors of this paper. Columbia. Seated among the ruins of a hard hearted saddle, this deponent, last Fri day evening, galloped away to Columbia county. One by one her bare red hills rose before the eye like “old familiar faces." Along the road the grain crops appeared to be in a prosperous condition. | 1 kuow of but one farmer w hose crop | has beeu destroyed by the cold weather. Active preparations are being made by the farmers for the present year—fences I repaired, rails split, and frequently plows running iu the fields. APPLING presents the same appearance it. did ten years ago. Two houses do the businessof | the place. It wears a sober, thoughtful j look, which seems to inquire wlmt all the balance of the world is excited about. It brightens up, though, twice a year, j when the Superior Court sits. Then the j lawyers, clients and witnesses assemble, and Appling wakes up for awhile. Last year Col. Moore, of the Constitutional ist, came up with the Augusta lawyers and boarded with Kelley. I dislike to say anything about Col. Moore that sav ors of the personal, but for a month after he left it made Kelley feel sick at. the stomach to look at. the dilapidated condition of his smokehoi se. Comity Court. On Tuesday last the preliminary trial of Ophelia Smith, colored, charged with burglary, was tried by Judge Wm. John ston of the County Court. Great interest was manifested in the affair, especially l>v the negroes. The Courthouse was I crowded, and the attention of the sable ! throng never flagged through the long \ examination. At dark the Court gave a recess of oue hour for supper, but in half that time the crowd began to reas semble, and when the case was taken up the rom was again filled. Some ad ditional testimony was introduced by the State, and then Mr. It, \V. 11. Neal , opened the argument in behalf of the de fense. Nearly all of the local Bar were employed, and the speechifying lasted j till about half past nine o’clock. The Court then rendered its decision, com j mitting the defendant to jail, to answer to the charge of Tnfrglary at the March Term of the Superior Court, 1 Counsel engaged in the trial were Messrs. Hudson and Watson for the I State ; Messrs, ltoney, Neal and Casey for the defense. Subsequently the defendant gave bond, ! and the prosecution against her husband, Ned Smith, Jr., wan dismissed by the . State, there being no evidence of his eomplicety in the crime. A Superb Organizer, By this big-sounding epithet I simply ■ mean the distinguished scoundrel who | brought himself and his organ to a j stand-still before the Courthouse lost | Friday, while Court was iu session, aud ; mistook it for an Opera Hou w e. Under j this impression the solemn humbug be ! gan to prepare to piny a tune. Some of j the bystanders warned him that the building was a Courthouse, and that ■ neither the Court nor the Bar would per -1 mit any unholy intrusion upon their pious proceedings. But the grinder was i determined to have his fun, and went to ' blazing away at the decaying remains of what once might have been a tune. The Judge heard it and was shocked ; the lawyers heard it and were horrified. The The Judge was first to recover himself, and he lifted up his voice and said: “Mr. Sheriff, I solemnly command yon, in the name of this Court and the in habitants thereof, to stop that fuss!" The Sheriff thereupon put his head out the window aud yelled: “O, yez! O, yez 1 Know all men by those presents, that the County Court says that the or gan grinder, and his heirs and assigns, must git from here, forever in fee | simple. God save the State, and keep ■ an eye on organ grinders 1" ! This proclamation made the grinder j feel bad, and expressing bis convictions ! a bent the matter in terms that were em | phatic as well as gilt-edged, he betook | himself to Branch viUe. ’— L —i beading noiicmu.
