Under tit is heading, we are pleased
to notice that town jot public scales are
bein"; constructed, by our Municipal
authorities. For weighing in wagon or

Iee and Sntinltlne.
Anthony's picture takers ought to
have been at Sumter on Saturday
morning last. The prospect for Sou'h
ern Winter Scenes was unusua Hy fine.
The day and night previous a gtaduaily
fret ziti?? rain bad clothed thc trees in a
heavy coat of ice. Saturday morning
witnessed an unclouded sun, which
?emed to shine with more than usual
splendor, impirtM'g a glittering, crys
taiized aspect to surrounding nature,
truly ?mud and sublime.
Accidentai Fire.
We learned with regret,aud announce
with sympathy, the barning, on Friday
aiterooon last, of the large and comfort?
able residence of Dr. Tuos. J. DuliosE
The origin of thc fire was accidental -
resulting from some defect in one ol
thc chimneys-and when discovered
had made such prioress that it could
not be arrested. M oct of tho furniture,
we learn, was rescued from thc flames.
IJ is lo?s is ?tated to us as fuily $5,uUU.
upon which there is no insurance.
Personal.
Puring the past w??ck we were grati?
fied by a visit, from Mr. W . J. VEREEN,
who represents Souih Caroliua with thc

Clothiers, of New Yul!;. With many
of our visitors front abroad, bu boarded
at, and complimented, the house kept
by Mr. CIJAS. W. DAVIS. Himself j
much on the wing, his home and family
are still comfortably located at Cheraw.
Through him. the house of ANDERDON", j

severely injured On thc train, Mr
J. D CRAIG, of Sumter, returning home
from a business visit to Wilmington,
was slightly injured.
On Tuesday previous a train on
the North Eastern Hoad also met with
an accident, we learn, by which Mr. li.
M. MACK, engineer, was severely in?
jured, a fireman suffered thc breaking
ofa leg, and a ne^'ro man killed. We?
are pleased to leam that Mr. MACK is
recovering from his injuries.
Valuable Fertilizer*.
Our good, and reliable, friend, J. N.
RORSON, of Charleston, presents the
advantages of his "Soluble Pacific Gua?
no," and "?"?rnpound Acid Phosphate
of I jitue," in our advertising columns
to day. Thc price of these Fertilizers
ba? been reduced, an?] brought down to
a figure, which, it is now believed, will
render their applicat ion profitable, under
ordinary circumstances of care Mr.
ROBSON has character enough not to
recommend that which does not com?
mend itself to his discerning judgment,
bis successful business having built
upon tie practice of honest representa?
tions, and we therefore recommend his
fertilizers to our friends with confidence.
Tonil Stock-The Proposed Hall, dee.
Briefly, in oar last issne, we gave
support to the tnovemeui inaugurated by
our Town Council, looking to the erec?
tion ol a Town tla.ll, Market,&c, on the
public lot fronting the Court House.
More careful examination of the mat
.tor has brought us io more decided
support of thu project.
The plan proposed is simply this :
To issue eight per cent Town Stock
to thc atnouut of Thirty five Hundred
or Four Thousand Dollars, the proceeds
to be applied to the purpose indicated
Wc believe that ,ihis should long
since have been done. No live or
progressive municipal corporation io the
bounds of the country has ever hesitated
to use its credit for its own advantage
and improvei ient. Like the use of in?
dividual credit, it should always, of
course, be attended with prudence and
judgment, the hazard ol'fui.ure or loss
being well guarder. But nothing is
more simple or coro m n than that now
proposed by our Municipal body; and
wc venture to say that scarcely a town
of similar size and importance can be
found which has no bonded debt.
That bonds should be issued for cur?
rent expenses, would no doubt be impol?
itic, since for this purpose the town
treasury should bc s'!f-sus:ainiog ; but
where it is proposed to invest thc credit
of the town, under ample chartered
authority and well guarded legal re?
strictions, in tangible, and necessary and
profitable improvements, ii the manage?
ment be in prudent aan?s, ther? can be
ucither d^ubt or dar ger attending.
Ir. is alleged, and we belie re upon
well grounded calculation, that the
rental income from the building pro
p .-...il: will pay ??bout double thc interest j
of the bonds involved, li'this be so, so j
lar fruin increasing taxation, the bal?
ance might be applied to reducing the
tax.
Weare pleased t) ;:arn that the
present Council has cancelled thc float
1 tn? debt of the town to the amount of
S1,S?31 -."> and that the work of liqui
! dation i< still goiniron, The credit of
j the towt; has certainly improved This
? aiso argues favorably for thc enterprise
contemplated, and points to tit? present
as the auspicious period for securing
the long needed itu; rarement*
Tn the bond-hoider thc investment
must bo perfectly secure, since under
! the charter no initiier bonds can be
j issued, and these arc allowed by it ouly
fur i ?ie specific purpose involved Besides
this, there ran be nt r:n_erof repudia
! lion. Tor this roast.&, th? securities of
I Municipalities hold position in the
front rank. Tito Sta ' Constitution
grants to the Legislature the right to
enarl laws anthorizi :g the Municipal!
rien to issse b oids or loan their credit
f..r rei tain intel tia: improvement-.
When th? cities and f? wns issue secu
ri'ics in ::. eui l.ii.e.- r;i:!i such laws,
thetc i- toi pouvr tb :. cnn legally defeat
; then., ti iv. inuit nts and Slates ma)
I repudiate, but }lititirtp:tUtt<* cannot -
Cap;: .li-:-, therefore, nny invest
j wi ii perfect confidence. This step, too,
i we learn, h ts no! b^en undertaken
I without abie and cautious legal advice.
Titi- is, therefore, doubtless, thc time,
rind wc say, let us have a Town Hal1,
lani Maikit. There can bc no doubt
a-, to the absolute necessity lor them.
'flu- vi.-itor wiio has heard uf Sumter.

And thia surprise is natural and Ie-_'tti
mate, when it is called to mind that
scarcely a place of any c ? ts? riucnce in
the .::':.fe is to be found in a similar
condition o? destitution.
