The clerk of the Superior Court has received from the State executive office the commissions of the magistrates ap pointed by the late Legislature. The number appointed for this county is fourteen and it is important that they should at once apply to the clerk and be sworn in. The commissions of those who have previously been in office ex pired the 27th of February, and those whose terms expired this year and who are acting or have been since the publi cation of their appointment are acting without authority. The new commis sions date from the time the old ones expired, the 27th of February. AVhy they have not been furnished the clerk before we are unable to ascertain. Sudden Death in a Church. Wednesday last, at a congregational meeting of what is known as Little Steel Creek church, in this county, Mr. Clarke, Harris, a deacon pf the churqh, justafter theinteeting Ifctdibe'en Pallid to order, was suddenly taken ill, and died within a few minutes. The cause of his death is supposed to be heart disease. A-physician, who was present, was called to his aid, but could do nothing for him. The deceased lived just on the line between North and (South Carolina, but all his asso ciations were North , Carolinian. He was a kind-hearted, christian gentle man, an influential ; citizen, and his death will be greatly deplored in . hi? neighborhood. Science vs. Quackery. One of our county physicians tells a story on two of his brethren, which although not of very recent occurrence has not suffered by age. A negro child got a grain of corn -in his windpipe which produced greek suffering. One of the physicians above referred to was sent for, but was unable to afford relief. Finally he concluded to cut into the child's throat and take the grain out, and invited his brother physician to assist him. They went over to the house of a neighbor near where the negro lived to spend the night, expect ing to perform the delicate and difficult operation the next morning. The parents of the j child. l)qcame j gneatly alarmed when -torn that the doctors intended to cut the child's throat, and sent for an old colored root and herb doctor in the neighborhood, and em plored him to save their offspring from such a fate. "Gimme a rope," said the old man of roots and herbs, and being supplied with a plow line which the father took from the gears that hung up in the wagon shed, he quietly took the afflicted child from the bed. fastened the rope around his feet and swung him up to the joints. Then, in the awful stillness of that night, and while the physicians in a neighboring house were holding a midnight con sultation as to how the arxt dav's diffi cult operation' was"td be' performed, and speculating upon its possible results to the science of medicine first, and the netrro bov afterwards, the old man, holding one hand on the sus pended boy's mouth, with the other punched him in the stomach. The boy coughed and out came the grain of corn ! They had to hide the root doctor in the shucks up on the "loft to keep the physicians from cutting His tnroat, tne next morning, when they went there and found their subject sitting in the door munching a piece of pone. .
