"Winter will set in generally towards the twentieth, and, by Christmas,jthe country will be well snow-covered from the Lakes and St. Lawrencc valley to New York, if not farther southward.

The Meeting rs ComiiBrA.?The Democratic meeting at Columbia on Tuesday was a splendid success. The procession.was formed in front of the State Hduse at ten o'clock and3 moved ? off in the following order: Band, ladies on horseback, Governor's Guards, Richland Volunteers, artilllery, dragoons, carriage drawru. by four white horses, containing Senator Hampton, Hon. Hugh Thompson,..Mayor; J&bett and County Chairman Marshall, followed by other- carriages.containing. the candidates, the students - ofr the South Carolina Universitv, and several hundred mounted Ked^Sbirts. The speaker's stand was beautifully decorated by the fair daughters of Columbia. j&re meeting was addressed by Senator Hampton, Messrs. Thompson, Sheppard, Congressman Evins, Mr. Lipscomb and Mr. Youmans. The ladies attended in large numbers, and many of them wore red.. scarfs, red jackets and other sympathetic ornament Business was generally suspended in the city, and many ol. the stores were handsomely deeorated with red flannel. Decision on the Stock-: Law_?In the Bi.chland Court of Common Pleas a case was recently tried affecting the rights of partiSs> under the no-fence Jaw. John Gilmore, colored, brought his action against the South Carolina Rfcilway Company, for the killing of a cow.. Iu charging the jury Judge ?ershaw> took the positiou that where auiraals stray on railroads tracks, under .the Stock Law as it now stands, the owners have to show, before they can recover damage*, mat mey were not guilty of negilence in allowing their stock to stray, and that if they contribnte bv nesrliorenee in not nro viding.. snitable enclosures for their stock they cannot recovar damages. The jury returned a verdict of ?100 damages against th& railroad. Judge Kershaw's charge changes the rule heretofore obtaining iu thia State?it being heretofore held that the burden . of proving the absence of negligence was on the corporation* The- stock J law forbidding owners of-cattle to> let j their animals go at large, the doctrine j is altered according-to the new rights and duties of the parties.

State Fair, "the chief motive" for the invitatiou being that the Agricultural Society is"a petitioner for State aid." After refevriug to the complaints which have been made as to the proper use of past appropriations, Mr. Duncan urges the great importance of members of the Legislature attending the fain to see with their "own eyes the positive benefi-. cence and practical good achieved by i the. annual State Fair and State Asso ciation."

The engine and reel wer^-both in fine trim, and the men were out in good force. Their uniforms are new and handsome. After parading through': ttev principal streets, the company then made a halt in front of the engine-house and prepared for practice. This was to make a run to the cistern near the courthouse, reel off fifty feet of hose, and throw a stream fifty feet. On the first trial the run was made in line time, and everything at the engine was ready iu a few seconds, but unluckily there was a delay in attaching the pipe, owing to the fact that the wrong coupling-head was forward. It was therefore concluded to try again, and this time everything worked linelv. We did not note the time, but the run was excellent, and there was no time lost at 4i.. ~ ' n.A ,.AA1 v ~~ nit; engine ui at uie reui. -Miiei farther exercise the company returned to the engine-house and were dismissed.

Hendrix" McLane has returned from Charleston. He was interviewed this morning*by Mr. J. L. Weber, the representative of the Cincinnati Commercial, and made many jistounding statements.- He said that the News and Courier's report of the Greenback demonstration in Charleston last night was not correct; that the meeting was a grand success; that the people turned out in large numbers? that he would not give any estimate of the crowd, but that there was a dense throng, and that any impartial observer could have seen that the Greenback ers would carry Charleston county by a large majority. He said that he would be elected Governor of South Carolina together with his whole ticket; that the Greenback nominees for Congress would be elected in every district, and that the Greenbickers would undoubtedly elect a working majority-in the Slate Legislature. He declined to-give any figures, but said he was sure of success. He also said that the Greenbackers are thoroughly organized and at work in every count}'; that they have 30,000 white voters on their club rolls, and that they would get in the election on Tilesday an almost solid colored vote. He said the Bourbons in Camden and Spartanburg admitted in confidential talks with prominent G-roenb&ckers that the result of the election is very doubtful; that in OcnnAP. VnrV TTmnnfcnn and Williams burg the Greenbaekers are almost solid; that he addressed a meeting at Graham's Cross-roads, in Williamsburg count}-, at which were present fifteen hundred voters ?not women and-children, as the Democrats count, tlie^r crowds?of whom notmore tlian forty were Democrats. Mr. Weber declares that McLane was not drunk when he was interviewed. THE. TRIBUSE LIE X AILED. A?ensational Story Manufactured to Help a Failing; Cause?Something about the Alleged Kaid upon a Federal Spy. There has-been considerable talk, in this county and elsewhere, about an alleged attack upon one Williams, a deputy collector of revenue, while traveling on the cars, and a subsequent raid upon his house. As we had 110 direct information, and as susaSoccurrences are always exaggerated, we thnnorht it hp>st tr> await fuller informa .V ? V, tion. Since then two versions of these aiBSrs have appeared * in print?the one in the New York Tribune (which we have already published) and the following in the Nates and Courier of Saturday Jast: Columbia, November 2.?On last MonI day the News and Courier republished a ' special dispatch to the New York-Tribune ; giving an account of an outrage-recently | committed in Fairfield county upon John | C. Williams, a deputy United States marshal, and stating that "the RecKshirt Democracy of Fairfield county ate again on the war-path*" It is tru.e that WilHains was assaulted and forced to leave the train, and it is also true , that he received a written notice warning him to leave-the county within five days, but. it is not true that his house was surrounded bv .thirty xliscruised : wiuwi men, ana lire statement, conxainen in 1 the Tribune dispatch that, "the hostility of | the Red-shirt ruffians to him is because of ; his political sentiments and the position he | occupies" as the Federal supervisor of eleci tionsat his precinct is proiuiinced by those j who are acquainted with ail the circumj stances of the case as "a lie out of the whole ! cloth." "The Red-shirt ruffians" had | nothing wha ever to do with the attack : upon Johnson on the train or the midnight j visit to his house. A purely personal affair j has been twisted into a political outrage by ; the cunning of the Tribune reporter, a.- the i following statement of facts, which can be i established on the oaths some of the KAcf :x 1 IVtC?V iU A'rtlUit'lU Will ^IIUW Scvvira! weeks, si nee a difficulty occurred | between Mr. J. W. Taylor, the postmaster < atJBlythewood, and 5lr. W. J. Johnson, a j merchant at the- same, place. Taylor, bnvj.ing.a letter of Johnson's in the postotfice j on which three eenfcs was due, declined >:<?. ! mail it unless Johnson would pay the postj age due. He sent Johnson word to this j effect, when Johnson went to the postoffice, I and. after cursing and abusing Ti'jlpr, left the office and went' back to his store. Tay! lor finally concluded to forward the letter, and did so. After some hours Johnson went back to the postoffice and assaulted Taylor, demanding the return of the letter, j and, drawing his pistol on the postmaster, threatened to shoot him. Taylor.is alfiicted j with paralysis,. and to get even, with his assailant reported'to United States Marshal Williams that Johnson was selling .certain tobacco samples which had been sent him by a Lynchburg liouse for gratuitous distribution, and in this way was violating the revenue laws. Williams procured a warrant from United States CommissionerPreston L. Melton, at Columbia, and arrested Johnson, who was brought before the commissioner, and after examination was bound over for trial in the United States Court. After the preliminary hearing Johnson and two friends, who am said to have been badly under the influence of liquor, aud Williams started back to their homes inJiairfield county on the same-train 011 the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta Railroad. On the tiain Williams wjis assaulted and forced to get off the cars before he had reached his destination. A fr<-r these occurrences a note, written in a disguised hand and signed "Winn.-boro Kuklux," was .dropped into the postofliee at Blythewooa, warning Mr. Tay.lor. to leave the county, within five days or that he would be visited; and on Wednesday night, October. 18,.. Deputy Marshal Williams's house was raided by seven men, instead of I thirty as the-. Tribune has it, and. a notice [ similar to that iierved upon Postmaster I Taylor was .left.for. him. While the midI inflr nor+v worA-An thft WflV t?A Wlllifl TW'si house they stopped at a wliite man's house and at a negro's, house and behaved in a ; most outrageous manner, cursing, shooting their pistols and calling the men out of their houses to draw water for them. No aetural violence,-, however, whs done to any. one either along the route or at Williams's house. Those who were engaged in the raid are well known. There were no politics in the matter, and outside of a very small circle ( at Blychewood, tie entire community of ( respectable, law-abiding people,, and all , good Democrats, disapprove of the outrage ' from first to last. The whole matter will 1 be in court for investigation. The "Winns- 1 boro Kuklux" luid nothing to do with tlie 1 matter, for there are no Kuklux in Winns- ; boro, and the Democracy of Fairfield can- . Tint in prmimmi tu> hdrl TvsnnrKih!** for the lawless acts of a few individuals. , The following statement made by Mr. \ Taylor will show how the whole difficulty originated and that- it was prompted by personal and not political considerations: Bltthewood, S. C., November l. 1SS2.? \ I do hereby ai-Lan and declare that the dif- 1 fieulty between W. J. Johnson and myself , (into which .John Williams was afterwards , drawn) originated from his refusing to pay three cents due on a letter of his and his subsequent attempt to shoot me; that it is , purely personal, anil that politics has noth- . mji wuaiuver w uo wins it m mi} hiuij/o ui. , form.

But it is usual that such things grow as they are talked about, and ! accounts must generally be received , with-some grains of allowance. It is 1 but fair, therefore, to Mr. Johnson (whose name alone is mentioned in the 2vews and Courier's account) that so far as his connection with the affair \ ic omwornrwX thr?r,} hp fl r>f judgment till there shall be au iiupar- 1 tial investigation. * tl> ( OVIt TAXABLE PROPERTY.

To Promulgate the Truth. Tlie way to pet a thing believed by the public at large is to first have a truth to announce without any doubt or suspicion as to its being the truth, and then to keep on fc?Uin?- 5iv si)p?ch and lien, bv tvne and fur urc, in every way repeating "it'constantly. Thus it was that when The Louisiana State Lottery was incorported in 18<>S at New Orleans, for charitable and educational purposes, there was a doubt that the managers would act as l'airiy as they announced, nit the fact that Generals G. T. Beauregard, of Louisiana, and .Tubal A. Early, of Virginia, have the sole supervision ol the lira wings, removes this suspicion, and it lias been proven up to the 150th monthly drawing on November 14th, that millions liave been distributed to parties applying to M. A. Dauphin, New Orleans, La., in wins ranging as high as $100,000, and so on ilown. Tickets cost ?5, but fifths are sold it Si each, and the certain ty-c.f the event is supplemented by the knowledge that some lie will get ?75,000, or fractional parts thereof. Who will it be?' (Adv.)
