Fatal shcoting. W. copy the fol!. wing aecount of fatal shooting from the last issue of tihe Ed_Cield Adcertifr. Although not so stated in the paragraph, we L:arn that a feud has existed between the families for many years. With shuddering we chronicle a bloody affray which took place in our town on Tuesday last. The parties in this affair were Mr. Lovett Gomilion and his son. Mr. Wm. Gomilion, of the one part, and Mr. Arthur Glover, of the other. Mr. Gomilion is a man of about fifty-five years of age. His son was a young man of twenty or twenty-one. Their home is seven miles East of our town. Mr. Glover is a man of thirty-six or thirty-eight. and is a citizen of our town. Both parties belong to old District families of the highest respectability. Some five or six weeks ago, Mr. Lovett Gomilion and Mr. Glover had angry words in front of our office. Young Gonilion was not present, but upon hearing of the matter, became deeply incensed against Glover. As this case will come before our courts, we conceive it our duty to mention not one of the various rumors, reports, or even solemn asseverations con cerning it; which,. as usual on such occasions, are abundant and rife-lest we unwittingly create prejudice pro or con. Suffice it to say that on Tuesday last, in the drug store of Mr. A. A. Clisby, young Gomilion was shot dead by Mr. Glover, and Mr. Lovett Gomilion so seriously wounded that scarcely a hope can be entertain ed of his recovery. The affair created intense excitement, and a pall of sor row hangs over our community. Mr. Glover will appear before Judge Carpenter this (Wednesday) evening, and give bond for his appearance at the next term of court. An Important Decision. THE SUPREME COURT RULES THAT A CITIZEN AND TAXPAYER HAS A RIGHT TO RESORT TO JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS F O R PROTECTION AGAINST THE WRONGFUL ACTS OF A PUBLIC OFFICER. The opinion of the Supreme Court in case of State Auditor Gary, re spondent, vs. N. G. Parker and others, was filed on the ninth instant. In this case the petition prayed for an in junction to restrain the State and county treasurers from issuing and putting in circulation the so-call ed Blue ridge revenue bond scrip to enjoin them from receiving the same fur past due taxes, and for taxes to be hereafter collected. The case, of course, involved the point made and decided in the case of Shiver and others vs. Comptroller-General Hoge last, winter as to the prohibitory effect of the constitution of the Uniited States on the scrip, and the Supreme Court, of course adheres to its opinion in that case by which the scrip was declared to be in the nature of bills of credit and the emission, therefore, is declar .ed unconstitutional. In the opinion of the Court occurs the following signi ficant language: "A public officer having the charge or the care of the property or money of the State, as to its proper preservation and disposition, occupies, in regard to it, the relation of a trustee. Hie must hold it along in strict devotion to the purposes of the agency which his of. fioe confers. The State as a 'eestui qui trust' may enforce the trust and save the subject of it from conversion to an object not within its scope. A private citizen and taxpayer has such an equity as will authorize him, in be half of himnself and all others who will be prejudiced by the proposed wrong ful act of the offeer, in respect either to the mnoaey or the property, to re sort to judicial proceedings for preven tion." The motion to dissolve the inj unc tion was dismissed. More About the Modoes. A telegraph from Camp Boyle, Tule Lake, June 13, says: "This morning, Boston Charley, Schonchin, Muse William, Princess Mary and Lizzie were escorted to the offie tent under a corporal's guard, so that judge Steele might talk with thenm and gain such information as migrht throw light upon certain acts which are now enshrouded in mystery. Jack, Schon chin, Boston Mose were in chains. The others were loose. The captives for:ned the usual semi-circle in the tent. Jack had a ugly, sullen look, appiarently displeased at being brought for talk. Only a few days since he told the offeer in charge of the prison ers that his Indian heart was dead and his body cold. All that he wished was that Lizzie, his favorite squaw, might be allowed to sit beside him. T1'he request was granted, and the squaw came to him. During the in terview lhe and Schoinchin sat oL a dry goods box, and Lizzie squatted at their feet. Judge Steele shook hands with the Indians, and said lie was glad to meet them. Jack was the only one who removed his hat. Scar-faced Chatrley was called to the front to act :s interpreter. Judge Steele said he regzretted tosee that the Indians had fbi followLd his advice and behaved thlemiselves. Then followed questions about the disposit ion of the property of the Maodoes' victiins; but little satisfaction was obtained. A fter an hour's talk, Judge Steele told them that unless they grave up the watch and ring, he would abandon them to their fate. andl not try to get the ear of the Tybee Davis. The Indians have until to-morrow to consider the mat UEnTus -We are pained to learn of the death of Mrs. Mary Copeland, wifeuf Wum. J.

Esq., a highly respected em-i zen of this County, died at his resi dence, in the neighborhood of Young's Store, on the 18th inst. [- rc .c..:n Heau Ks gssr. 3. C. Wenbday, June 2, 1879. The Grand Trunk R. R. The Memphis and Atlantic railroad is already coplcted forty miles from Opelika, and the entire line to Childer.burg on the Selma, Rome and Dalton road is under contract. It is expected that Corinth will be reached in at least two years, wlhen the grand 'trunk line, which is to connect St. Louis with Port Royal on the South Atlantic, will be completed. The I f.lltwing statement of comparative I distances will convey a suggestive idea of the probable diversion of much of the Western trade to a new and Southern shipping point: St. Louis to New York 1201 miles; to Port Royal 916 miles. Louisville to New York 968 miks; to Port Royal 758 miles. Memphis to New York 1345 miles; to Port Royal 726 miles. Cincinnati to New York 861 miles; to Port Royal 860 miles. The above is from the St. Louis Weekly Times, June 19th We don't know if it is determined by what route the grand trunk shall run, but if it be not a fixed fact, a glance at the map shows that an almost air line from St. Louis, by way of Louisville, Ky., Asheville, N. C., and Greenville, S. C., to Charleston or Port Royal, can be had, and at a saving in distance over the shortest line proposed above of one hundred and sixty-four miles. This may well be taken into considera tion. The Undeveloped West Or five years in the Territories.

It will be issued by sub. scription only. The chapters thus brought to our attention are written in a racy style, and abound in descrip tions of the great unknown West, as well as i2 anecdotes and personal ad ventures. We feel no hesitation in commending this book in advatnce of its publication, judging fronm the specimen sheets already seen. The following extract from Chapter XV. gives an idea of the style and subject matter: "All aboard for Yosemite and the Big Trees ! H-ow the mnimd s.wells as these words are called through the hotel, and the fancy paints whatt is to come: visions of giant vegetation and wondrous woods ; of riotous nature in a tropical clime and fertile soil, ex eeding all the wonders of romance with growing reality; of rocky canons and happy valleys; of glacier-hewn liffs, reared thousands of feet in the air ; of waterfalls and mirror lakes ; of immense flumes, cut by living streas'~ ini the solid granite; of majestic falls. and crystal cascades foaming from a hundred hills. But between us and these wonder-s intervene mnany muiles of wearisome travel, days of toil and nights of broken rest. Before ty visit I wondered that so many excursion ists visited California, and ne':er went tor Yosemite or the Big Trees. I wonder no longer ; for the trip is one which may well maake the most hardy hesitate, though truly assured that in the end he shall see wonders that have no equal upon this planet. Two hundred and fifty miles of staging upon the rocky Sierras, beneath an August sun, and half the time envelopod in red dust, are enough to make one seriously ask, Does it pay to visit Yosemite ? We leave chilly "Frisco'' at 4 P'. M., and spend the night at Stockton, ex periencing in that short distance about as great a change of climate as if we should go in April from Chicago to New Orleans." Wurrs's Music.rz. GUEsT.-The June number contains the' following choice music: "ihe two Villages," voc-al duett, James G. Clark; "The Decar Old Cottage," Song and Chorus, Chats. H Carroll; "Companula Waltz," by S. L.

Among them we notice the last chapter of the interesting serial, "Mo z art's First Love;" "Vienna as a Musical Metropolis;" "Work and win," a special address to the ladies; "Manners;" a comn l)e and interesting account of the "Cincin na:i Musical Festival;" "Music in the pub li Schools;" the nsual department.

UEER THIAN CHaoxos.--Every new subscriber to the Southern Musical Journal ($1.00 a year.) is entitled to a premium of sheet music, of their own selection, to the valu of fifty cents. This is in addition to tie fifteen dollars worth of music published iu the Journal during the year, and makes the expense really bat titty cents a year. A mere trifle! W~ho can refuse such an offer? The Journal is a model magazine in every respect; equal to any we have seen, and worth its small subscription price ten times over. F.very musical family in the South ought to read it regularly. The Junne num ber, just at hand, has the following choice music, viz: "Mil!y's Faith," Claribel; "Weary," Gabriel; two fine and popular song. "One Heart. One Soul," Polka Mazurka.

C.;ntenplating for sonme length of time, a visit to thi- flourishing 'and rapidly increasing town, we took old Time by the forelock on Wednesday afternoon last, and ran down-on the rail. It was a pleasant idea. a pleas aut ride, and in pleasant company, the over-tasked writer with his at tractive gray, VENTILATT.D STOVE-1'IIE in other words the latest agony in hats, in contra-distinction to a love of a bonnet, Made the trip in pleasantest style. It was a perfect triumph, and the sensation produced by that hat was delicious. On the train we were the observed of all observers-the hat and ourseIf-and at Frog Level, (par don us ve dwellers in that favored spot,) at Prosperity, the whisper ran from mouth to mouth -here comes a Baltimore drummer, and one of the best looking seen this sunier-it was gay." How different from the sensation produced as the hat and its owner moved through the streets of Newberry, on the way to take the train-for here it was "COME OUT OF THAT HAT," "the HERALD'S gone up," "is that hat paid for?" "What a guy!" and nanerous other like expressions. How infelicitous. But we are writing about the Level, or rather Prosperity Lang it, it's almost impossible to get the name right. We don't know the exact history, but this much we do, years ago the trial was made to name the place Enterprise, but TIE OLD LEVELERS stuck to the original Frog Level; the rail road company then christened it Prosperity, but it was Frog Level for all that; then the Legislature, the most gifted body in the State, was appealed to, and the several names of Enterprise and Prosperity were put into bills and fought over there, while the war raged at home. It finally CAME OUT PROSPERITY, and so it is now by enactment, but some of the old lovers, who will not believe that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet, still call it by the first, and the old familiar appellation. The railroad hands yell out Frog Level, and the Post;ffice is also yet unchanged in name, as the Post Master-Mr. David Kibler-is unhanged in heart, and so no doubt it will continue for time to come. It is related that letters are received there superscribed "Frog Level, En terprise, Prosperity, or whatever else it may be called." Mr. Kibler, just named, is entitled to consideration, and must be pardoned if he clings to old things-for partly through his cf forts was the G & C. Railroad run by there, and also was lhe largely in strumental in aiding the erection of Newville Church, the only edifice of worship in the incorporation, ai.d at that time lie wa.s the only male member of the Lutheran denomina tion; besides him though there were three lady members-most valuable co-laborers. The LADIES ARE ALWAYs FOREMOsT in all good words and works, and out number the wales besides when the roll is called and somiething to be done. t3less them-they are first in everything, even in the hearts of the men. But the Level PROSPERiTY, AGAIN. Four or five years ago it scarce num bered a fourth of the present po.pula tion, of about three hundred. As stated it has one Church, Lutheran, over which the Rev. II. S. Wingard exercises an acceptable spiritual con trol. Then there is an excellent male school, large in number, under the direction of Mr. J. B. Lathan. a gn tleman in every respect qualified by education, character and deportment for so important a trust. Its MERCIANTS AND BUSINESS MEN Are: HI. S. Boozer & Co., Wise, Whites & Co., Heller & Sheely Luther & Dominick. Bowers. Wheeler & Co., and L. C. Kibler, in Dry Goods and general merchandise ; F. Blobb. Wheeler & Mosely, J. M. Kibier, and T. T. Beachiam, in Groceries prin cipally. Besides these J. C. Counts, furniture dealer. J. L. Counts, under taker, Simpson, Maftett & Co., D)rug gists, and last but not the least in this ctegory, Miss Mattie Stone, a charm ing young lady, who occupies all of her spare moments in the fascinating pastime of female adornmnent--known as Millinery. There are also two disciples of the healing art-Drs. W. T. McFall and J. D). Simpson. and one Notary Publie-Mr. P. E. Wise. Strange to say there are NO LAWYE.RS AND NO TRIAL J Us-I TICEs'i Happy Frog Level, or rather happ.y and level Prosperity. We had nearly forgotten to add to the list the Card ing Factory of Messrs. Wheeler & Mosy, who are prepared to give every satisfaction to farmers and others in the carding of wool. The energetic Intendant, Mr. Whites-had just given consent to put one of Tozer's celebrate F.o Pumps in the public well, an Mtr. Frenk .nn. agent for the4 Ciumh-r nanl ether highly rceominended pumps, happening there just in the nick of time gained per mission to siuk one of his own also. It will be nip and tuck between the two-and there is no doubt but there will be considerable pumping done. Mr. Mo1on says he went there simply because a lodge of Good Templars was in process of organization. and his bowels of compassion moved to give the boys of Prosperity the COOLEST WATER in the well, from the north .ide, and I right from the bottom. lie is a good fellow, is Frank. and we trust that he will sell a number of his excellent pumps right there. Speaking of his commendable desire reminds us that to t%.ke part in the organization of that LODGE OF TEMPLARS was one of the reasons-and the only one we will mention now, unless some one makes the accusation that thi other was to show the hanSme grey hat-which took us to Fr-Prosperity. This Lodge-Prosperity Lodge Good Tenplars, No. 34-was organized on Wednesday afternoon at 5 o'clock. in the Masonic Hall, by the Rev. Henry Mood, assisted by Messrs. Warren Feagle, Iomer P. Tarrant, and your humble writer, members of Kosciusko Lodge, No. 32. The number initiated was nineteen, three of whom were ladies-bless them again-where is it they will not go, and what is it, no matter how great the sacrifice, they will not take earnest part in? TUE OFFICERS ELECTED on that hap'y and auspicious occasion are: Rev. H. S. Wingard, W. C. T.; H. S. Boozer, P. W. C. T.; Miss Mattie Stone, W. V. T.; J. B. Lathan, W. S.; E. P. Cromer, W. A. S.; Rev. J. C. Boyd, W. C.; Mrs. A. Cromer, W. F. S.; Mrs. Wingard, W. T.; 1). Sheely, W. M.; Geo. Wise, D. M.; W. Birge, R. 11. S.; W. Bridges, L. H. S.; P. E. Wise, I. G.; J. B. Rikard, 0. G. Barring the fearful heat of the weather, and the closeness of the hall, upon which the sun shone with an intensity of fervor, and which brought out the perspiration in great bead drops. and then comminlyling ran down the devoted bodies of the good Tenmplars in rivulets, it was all pleasantly got through with, and No. 34 was declared duly oranized and ready for the confliet. At night, in Newville Church, by invitation, the Rev. Henry MIood delivered a Temperance Address, in his usual felicitous style, and which was well received. It will hardly do to close this ac count of our visit to Prosperity with out mentioningr that the inhabitants of that thriving town are given to MUCH HOSPITALITY, take in all visitors, and treat them to the best. Our wants were supplied by Maj. P. E. Wise and lady, and when all was done that could be, we were invited to come again, and were even offered a settin' of duck eggs strange that the people of this section of country all know that we go in for raising~ ducks. But we stop, for too much even of a good thing becomes wearisome, so we simply add that without accident to writer or hat, the up-train next morning dumped us out at the Newbcrry Depot, well satisfied with the short experience.

Sarah Feller.', L which three perso.ns were killed and eight wounded. The cause of the explosion is unknown. Mr. Brown thinks there was sonce defect in the boiler, as he had but about sixty-five pounds of steani. The engine was Toit in action, and had been standing about ten iuin utes. All hands were at work repair ing sonie part of the thresher which had broken. The killed were 31r. Jesse Sehu!niert, and two negroes, respectively named. Pink Reeder and Alfred Gary. The wounded were. white, Messrs. Drayton Brown and J. B. Whitman; colored, Brown Dalrym pie, lill IIipp. Anderson Singley, Ad dison Porter, Siieion Gallman and Shed Gibbs. The power of the explosion was tre niendous. The whole engine and thresher were driven about twentyfeet thr.ough a wall of a log house and piled up on the oats in the house four or five feet from the ground. Smaller portions were thrown in every diree tion. some to the distance of seventy five yards. The people turned out promptly to aid the suffering, and Drs. 31eFall and Garmany were on the ground as soon :is p6ssible to take care of the wound ed, most of whoi fortunately wcre slightly hurt. The accident has east a gloom over our neighborhood, for Mr. Schumpert was loved by all who kuew hii. Our sympathies are with the bereaved family.
