uiiial, atveral in idents have occurred in
court of a rather lively character, n
Honor started in on the fir.it day, by wip
ing out the old Grand Jury and empanel
ing a new on -, because it was known that
romc of the old jurymen lia l signed a pa
per expressing a willingness to receive,
currency, t'; • shinplaoters of the Eagle
and Phenix Manufacturing Company, of
t as if it. was any of this
■s* whether a man received
bone buttons ns dollars.
The ejnrt has instituted suit against two
of our banking companies for issuing the
at«rc named shinplsstcrs, and it wanted
a jury to back its action with t ills of in
dictment. The next “pass” it made was
at a memlnjr Uie new jury, for tak
ing a drink “while on duty." It
poppod him in the jail for nn hour
for the ofTeii •.*, and as it was the first
time that t'.ie gentleman ever “ fod upon
the vapor, of a dungeon,” you may
imagine how it worked on him. In jus
tice to the gentleman, I would state thnt
two or three members of the jury in
formed mi- that he was not under the in
fluence of lii|iior to the extent of inter
fering with a proper discharge of his du
ties. »>n Thursday last the court called
' •'!' the county, xml asked
him if he sent n < •legram'W Montgomery
a few days before ordering tho nrreat of
Malcolm A. McNair, who is a .son-in-law
of Judge Kells, and against whom the
■ -r •• jnrv had found a true bill for
forgery. The licrilf replied that ho had
sent S'teli a dispatch. Ity what author
ity did you t -nd it?" asked the court.
“ By authority of a capias in my posses-
re.ii,".said tho sheriff. “ Did you know
that a bond for McNair's appearance had
ben given when you sent tho dispatch?"
' 1 did not,” replied tho sheriff. "Th
sir, you should have known it,” said tho
court, “ and I suspend you from a dis
charge of your duties in this court indef
initely.” A negro, named Isliain Haynes,
was thereupon assigned to the position of
•licrilf in this court. On Thursday lost
s sharp colloquy took plaeo between tho
court and Judge Fern M. Wood, on alrlo
and popular lawyer of this city. During
the exciting little confab. Judge
Weed did not allude in very compli
mentary terms to liis Honor's knowledge
of law or purity and imparti ility as a
judge. To which the Court replied, that
notliing Judgo Wood could fay would
make any impression upon it. Judge
Wood rejoined by inviting Judge Keils
to vacate the bench.and walk out on the
street, and he would mako an impression
npon him. It ended by a fine of $50 be
ing imposed on Judgo Wood, and an or
der to tho Sheriff to imprison him for
five days. Judge W. refused to bo put
into the dingy and dirty cells of the guard
house, and stated that ho would go to the
county jail at Clayton ; but by tho time
the evening train arrived, the ire of tho
Court liatl subsided nnd the imprison
ment order was revoked, and tho offender
given until tho Cth of January, (to which
time court adjourned) to pay tho fine.
So the King of Franco marched up the
hill, and then marched down again. Take
it all in all, Judgo Koils holds tho gayest
court you ever saw or heard of. But for
lock of time, tho Legislature thnt lias
just adjourned would liavo repealed tho
bill establishing this court—a consumma
tion devoutly to bo wished by nil tho tax
payers of tho city and county.
Business has considerably revived in
this market since my lost, and cotton is
now coming freely from tho surrounding
country. Our merchants nnd business
men wear much moro cheerful visages,
and the opinion is generally entertained
that the crisis has boon passed.
The Kufuuha Fire Department held its
semi-annual parade nnd inspection on
Monday lost, amt mad* a mo it creditable
and imposing display. For tho strength
of tho department in membership, I liavo
no doubt it is the most efficient and active
organization of the kind in tho South, if
not in tho country. Tho city has re
cently built a very neat and commodious
engine house for tho "Bluff City” Hook
and Ladder, and Phosnlx No. 2, compa
nies and their respective machines, and
they are now installed in their new quar
ters. Their halls have been elegantly
furnished, nnd will compare most favor
ably with any in your city. After tho
parade the other day, these two compa
nies, in their new quarters, gave their
brother firemen, members of tho City
Council nnd city press a sumptuous feast
of reason nnd How of wine, tho convivial
ities of which lasted Gil n Into hour nt
night. Among tho guests present was
Mr. John Kehoo, and old chief of the de
partment, who is now living in Birming
ham. lie was, of course, lionized by tho
••boys,” nnd they put him through on a
fast schedule. Your correspondent would
return thanks for the many courtesies
and attentions shown him during tho day
ami evening by tho firemen of tho city.
Tho Great Eastern Circus and Menage

Royalty In Slippers.
Paul dn Cliaillu. who lias been up look
ing at tho Swedes, said in his Brooklyn
lecture about them :
When in Stockholm I l.iul a desire to
**e tho King, so I wrote to the Secretary
of State. I was politely informed that
hi* Majesty hail gone visiting, but would
return m two days. When ho arrived, I
was invited to call on him. I wont to
tho palace expecting to see soldiers, in
fantry, cavalrymen and artillerymen;
but there was only one soldier, and ho
did not oven ask mo where I was going,
or what I wanted. 1 went upstairs un
challenged, and at length intercepted a
servant by whom I was directed wliero to
find the King.
“ Good morning.” said he.
"Good morning.” 1 responded.
Ar.d this was our introduction. In less
than three minutes he asked me to have
a cigar, and then showed my books, which
had been translated. I felt proud ; it was
an honor to have them in his language,
lie asked me to come and spend the next
.lay with him. I wont and roamed
through the palace in search of its owner.
Finally I hallooed, "Is there any one
about?” and succeeded in arousing some
one who pointed me to a room. I entered
it, and found tho King jnst putting on
his coat. He had been at work painting.
I was hospital dy entertained. When
shout leaving I requested some of his
' ' iits to give to the girls in Brooklyn.
Be pleasantly complied, writing on them,
at my solicitation, his autograph. "Now,”
said he, laughing, "you must send me
tome portraits of Brooklyn girls.” I
thought he was a splendid man.

The coast of Norway is magnificent, its
aarl,>rs lined with steamljoats; its moun
tain., high and grand, are covered with
glaoievs : its waters so clear that the bot-
t'luof the sea is discernible. Sweden
'•cars no comparison to it. Grog shops
are one hundred miles apart. They buy
"hi ky by the quantity, and keep drunk
"I want to got married, don't you?”
"Oh, 1 don't know. Go away.’’ “Yes,
you do; let's get married.” "AVell, ask
papa." "No. never mind him, we’ll get
married anyhow.” And he went around
telling everybody he aw, “I’m going to
marry that girl/’
The preparations continued during the
three weeks required by law to have the
ban i published in the churches. Fishes
were caught, stares for tlxc feaat laid in,
beer brewed, and whisky purchased. Wed
ding jollifications are indulged in for a
week. This couple were married. They
went from the church to the house, anil
the bridesmaids locked th- bride in her
room. Tho groom
KNOCKED XT THE DOOR.
"How much will you give to come in ?”
’’Two cows and $5.” ''That’s not enough.”
"Three cows and $10.” "Oh, you are
rich; you must give more than that."
Five cows and $25 wu- the final offer,
which was accepted. In writing to a
lady you do not use the name but address
it to her father like th is : "John Jones’
daughter,” and add the name of the farm.
A Capital Suggestion.
Referring to the conviction of Tweed
and Genet, the Herald suggests that the
time is propitious for the punishment of
national thieves. The Credit Mobilier
exposure*, which are only a sample of the
crimes of the public men at Washington,
showed a condition of affairs as bad in
every way as Albany and in the city gov
ernment. There is no reason why Tweed
and Genet should be punished and Dawes
and Kelley and Garfield and Patterson
and the rest go unwhiptof justice. Thero
are powerful criminals who stand to-day
on the books of tho Treasury Department
os defaulters to the government who liavo
not even been required to settle their ac
counts because of their influence in tho
party. Gen. Howard, os the head of the
Freedman’s Bureau, was known for a long
time to liavo misappropriated tho public
uionvy, anil yet no effort was inode to
convict and punish him. The expos
ure of Gen. Balloch a year ago was in
itself Howard’s exposure and it was as
much the duty of tho Secretary of War
at that time os now to ask Congress to
provide for his punishment. Tho case of
Stokes, the Tennessee politician charged
with committing bounty frauds, has not
been disposed <>f,or lias been so manonged
that the criminal escaped. Tho Wash
ington Ring, as well os tho New York
King, affords fit subjects for trial and
punishment.
Kettle Drums.
Tho New York correspondent of tho
Charleston News and Courier tells of the
latest social institution in New York, as
follows:
A new stylo of private social entertain
ment, imported from England, lias come
very much into voguo lately in uptown
fashionable circles. It is called the
"Kettle-drum Party.” Such of your read
ers as have not participated in a “kettle
drum” and are anxious to keep up with
the latest fashions, will thank me for
sketching briefly tho forms observed at
these gatherings. "Kettle-drums” aro

W1IEKE THE KETTLE-DRUM COMES IN.
Ono of these instruments of superior
quality is provided by tlie hostess. It is
placed in the corner of the parlor, and is
beaten throughout the entertainment in
a low monotonous tone by ono of tho male
visitors. When a gentleman finds him
self neglected by the servers it is liis
duty to tako liis place at tlio drum until
ho is relieved by nnother unfortunate.
The use of the monotonous rub-a-dub
will be apparent. The Indies and gentle
men being paired off in couples, the
noise, while it is not harsh enough to ho
displeasing, is loud enough to permit
couples to indulge in “ emotional conver
sation” without being overheard by tho
others. Thus amid love-making, scandal
swapping and tea-sipping the party
passes off, and yet to each guest it lias
all tho characteristics of a private tete-a-
tete. Tho information should not be
omitted that spoons aro dispensed with
and tea is imbibed through carefully pre
pared straws, which, we aro assured,
“preserve and heighten tho delicato
bouquet of the herb.”

ESTABLISHED

MANUFACTURED BY
Langdale’s Chemical Manure Company
(LIMITED.)
NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, ENGLAND.
Has tlie following Powerful Recommendations for Planters
It is a genuine English made Manure, tho only ono in the market, and manu
factured by a company having a capital of $1,250,000, which sells '10,000 tons annu
ally, and has the most extensive works of tho kind in Groat Britain, which have
boon in operation 2t years. The Langdale, therefore, has a good pedigree and is no
experiment.
It contains a larger proportion of chemical elements suited for the promotion
of vegetable life, anil especially of cotton, than any, other fertilizer offered in the
South. It is tho best and safest Colton Manure in the market.
The analysis given with the Manure when sold will bo guaranteed. There shall
l>o no mistake about the genuineness of the nrtiele, nor the good faith of the vendors.
It is tho cheapest Manure offered, as it contains nothing but what is of use in
becoming plant-food, or by chemical action on the soil, producing the same. Tho
test of cheapness is not the price, but tho actual worth of the articlo purchased.
Low-priced Manure cannot contain efficient quantities of pure and valuable chemi
cals, which can alono give woitli to a fertilizer, and bring' satisfactory results. Tho
Langdale is as low in price as is consistent with tho use of tho best ingredients, and
a fair commercial profit on its cost.
The employment of powerful machinery in mixing nnd pulverising the ingre
dients prepares every particle for service, and prevents trouble in using. The Lang
dale is unequalled in this respect, and impresses every ono who sees it as a perfectly
manipulated Manure.
In its composition and preparation it is tho result of careful scientific research
nnd experiment, confirmed by practical application for a quarter of a century. It
wQI bo maintained nt its present high standard, and is thus what planters hate
long wanted - a thoronghly reliable anil safe Manure.
