    Court.The Court of General Sessions oce

    pied the whole of last week. The ftlowing cases were disposed of:

    State vs. Isom Workman and .Jno. 1Satterwhite, continued, under appealthe Supreme Court.

    State vs. B. Harmon and Joe SalteTrespass on lands; appeal from TrJustice Court. These defendants wetarrested and c:rried before a Trial Ju:tice, charged with trespassing on land!They demanded a jury, and the TriJustice required them, as a prereqisitto getting a jury trial, that they "pup" the money to pay the jury. Thithey did. The jury disagreed. Thewere again brought up for trial, anagain the Trial Justice demanded thjury fees in advance, and the defendantrefusing to "put up" the money thTrial Justice tried them without a juryThey were convicted, and sentenced ta fine or imprisonment. Mr. Packerrepresenting the defendants, appealecon the ground that they had not beeilegally tried. The Circuit Judge sustained the appeal, holding that an accused person is entitled to a jury trialand that he is not required to make an]provisions beforehand for the paymenof the jury. The case was remandecto the Trial Justice.

    State vs. Calvin Gallman, assauliwith intent to kill, and assault of a higland aggravated nature. Some sheep o:Mr. Thos. H. Adams got into AntonMoon's field;. Moon had them put up,and sent to Mr. Adams to come andget them. Mr. Adams went, but wherhe got to the stable where the sheerwere confined he was met by the de-fendant who demanded pay before thesheep should go. Mr. Adams refusingthis demand and attempting to take thesheep away. the defendant fell uponhim and beat him severely with a brick-bat over the head and shoulders.Messrs. Jones & Jones, who represent-ed the defendant, proved that the defend-ant was working for Antony Moon fortwo-ifths of the crop, and insisted that hetherefore had a right to hold the sheep,(by force if necessary,) till he was paidfor any damages they may have donehim. The Judge charged that the de-fendant could not hold the sheep fordamages even had they done him anydamage; that the law only gives the"owner of the land" upon which stockrespasses the right to hold them foramages; and that in this case AntonyMoon, who had rented the land, wasfor the time the owner, and thereforethe only party entitled to hold stock forrespass. The jury found a verdict ofuilty of aggravated assault and batte-y.State vs. Oscar Jones, assault with in-

    ent to kill, and assault and battery of aigh and aggravated nature. This de-fendant pleaded guilty to the latterharge.State vs. Willie Ruff, Rape, and as-ault with intent to ravish. The prose-uting witness in this case was a stoutolored woman of 2.5, the accused a col-red boy of 15. She testified that shewas put in fear of her life by threatsand thus overpowered. TIhe case looked

    a little fishy, and the jurg said Notuilty.State vs. Ella Robertson, Pleas Rob-rtson, Jim Robertson, Bob Porterlieldand Harriet Porterfield, Grand Larceny.hese parties, all colored, were charged

    with stealing two bales of cotton fromiMr. F. H. Dominick. The evidencesowed that Bob Porterfield workedand of Mr. Dominick last year; andtat he was indebted to Mr. D. Mr.Dominick, the prosecuting witness, tes-ifid that Bob turned over these twoales of cotton to him in payment of thendebtedness. The testimony raisedonsiderable doubt as to whether it was

    acomplete contract-whether Mr. Dom-nick had accepted the cotton in theense he testified it was offered-in fullatisfation. There was some attach-ent and claim and delivery proceed-

    ngs in connection with this same cot-on, and the whole affair was about asadly "mixed up" as "them babies". Itad very much the appearance of try-ng the title to personal property in theSessions Court. The jury couldn't de-ide the question of title, and thereforeouldn't agree. A "mistria}" wais en~ered; and the accused were let out on30 bail, except as to Pleas Robertson-the case as to him was nol pros'd.Mr. Schumnpert and Mr. Carlisle de-ended the accused.The State vs. Milledge Snow, Ob-tructing Rail Road Track. This caseas been on docket for several terms.The indietraent was quashed duringol. Ball's term on a technicality, thendictment failing to allege that carswere drawn over the track by steam en-ines. Mr. Robertson testified that beaw Snow place a "chair", a piece ofiron used on railroads, on the road be-ween Saluda Bridge and Chappell's,

    ad that be found two other "chairs"n the road near tis. The proof wasonclusive. Messrs. Moorman & Sim-ins, who represented the accused, in-sisted in the argument on a verdict of

    ot guilty on the ground that it had noteen proved that "steam engines" drewcars over this track. The only testimno-y wns by Mr. Robert.son, that a "p4s-enger train" hadl just passed over theroad carrying a red flag, indicating thataother "train" was expected ; and that

    fewdays before an "engine" hadknocked a bar of iron off' the track neartheplace of this obstruction. TheJudge held that there was some evi-tee sunftcit oiat a qtion foretherury.e uryiethosuhtion frs sthea,.. The inev thonoht it was sufii-

    a verdict of guilty. The testimony waa- very voluminous: but it was prove<1- that the accused shot and killed Field

    ing Mc)owell on Mr. P. B. WorkmanpIce on the 7th of March with an En

    :o field rifle. A peculiarity about the cascwas that Job Johnson, a brother of th<

    r, accused, confessed the day after theii killing that he (Job) did the killing,e and he stuck to it to the last, going upon;-the witness stnndl at the tri-il :.Ud nycear-;.ing to it. Fielding and J,b had had :

    1 difficulty a few hours before the killing,e and thet c was some testimony as to aI diiliculty between the two at the times of the killing; but the State showedy that this claim of Job that he killed3 Fielding was a "put up" job between

    e Job., who appears to be of weak mind,s and his brother Simon, their idea beinga that Job would have a chance of ac-quittal on the ground pf self-defense, and

    > Simon would have no chance at all.Job's testimony was contradicted by

    l overwhelming evidence. The prisonert was defended by James Packer, Esq.- Friday afternoon the convicts weresentenced as follows:Oscar Jones-Four months in the

    County Jail, and a fine of $5.Calvin Galiman-Four months in the

    ICounty Jail, and a fine of $5.Milledge Snow-Two years at hard

    labor in the State Penitentiary, and afine of $25.Simon Johnson-To be banged Fri-

    day the 5th day of August next. WhenJohnson was asked by the Clerk, afterthe usual form, what he had to say whysentence of death should not be pro-nounced against him, he replied-"I'mnot guilty; I'm not guilty, at all."Judge Fraser, in passing sentence,

    said: Simon Johnson, you have beenconvicted of killing a man who wasliving on the same plantation with you;one of your companions. Being put onyour trial, you have had every privilegethe law allowed you; you have beendefended with a great deal of zeal andwith ability. After a long and tediousinvestigation, the jury have found youguilty. Notwithstanding the fact thatyour unfortunate brother has volun-teered to take the crime upon his ownshoulders, the jury were satisfied thatyou were the murderer, After carefulconsideration, I can find no fault withtheir verdict.You stand here not only to answer to

    the laws of your country, but with yourhands imbrued in the blood of your fel-low-man. You did the deed withoutjustification or' excuse. With stronghands and ungovernable passion yousent him, without warning, into eterni-Ly. The law imposes upon me thepainful duty of pronoun eing upon youthe sentence of death. All I can tellyou is to make your peace with God.You should look the matter squarely jinthe face. It is my du'y to warn youagainst any delusive hopes. In theshort time allowed you you should re-pent and seek forgiveness from Himalone whose forgiveness is of any ser-vice to you. Prepare to meet your God.Though you stand here covered withthe blood of your fellow-man, there isforgiveniess for you if you will seek it.The Judge then pronounced the sen-

    tence.The prisoner exhibited very little

    concern during the delivery of the sen-tence. He is a large, stout man, black,and is about twenty-eight years of age.
