A. Tisober- I VOL VI NO 3 lake foreman, with J. A. Lamkin clerk. Tho charge of the Court was timely, coveringjill the ground and outlining tho duties of the grand in quest of this county. After the.charge the jury retired and entered vigoious ly upon the discharge of their duty. The jury being composed of good material we look for good results at their hands. Slow progress was made on Monday, owing to the absence of witnesses. Tho attendance upon this term of court is unsually large, and the amount of business correspond ingly great and tho presumption is that the greater part of the week will bo consumed, principally on the criminal side of the court. Tho Pearre-Lamur case, in which only questions of law are involved, will be passed upon by Judge Roney in vaca tion. Thus facilitating civil business very materially and enabled the court to take up the criminal docket Tues day evening. Wo regret Sol-Gen. Wright’s indis position was of sufficient magnitude to cause him to leave for his home in Augusta, where he will bo tenderly cared for by his devoted wile. M. P. Carroll, Esq., was appointed by the court to look after the Shite cases.— Mr. Carroll not being conversant with the nature of the Wall case, which was being conducted by Mr. Wright* it was continued. On Tuesday tho Clary-Ramsey case camo up for trial, iu which two giants at law met. Carroll for the plaintiff and Tutt for the defence.—• Verdict for the defence. Court reporter Sullivan had quite an unenviable experience in a run away upon his return from Harlem, in which ho was pretty badly used up and a buggy completely demolished. Wedneiday afternoon.—The court has been busily engaged in trying criminal cases to-day. In the case of the State vs. Jas. Blanchard, colored, charged with burglary in the night time, Tutt and Carroll met again, making able ami exhaustive speeches. At 3 o’clock the jury retired, return ing at 3:45 with a verdict of guilty. From the outlook now the entire week will be consumed. We will give full proceedings next week. Jit A llislrming Inikiit.
