We have been informed that one day last week, a negro in feiling a tree on the plantation of Mr. Burdell, a few miles east of Ridgeway, the tree fell on the axeman's brother and injured him so badly that the boy died. The unfortunate boy, who lost his lile, was quite small. ?D. A. G.

Oil. of Dover, 111., asking if lie knew of any farmer who -wished a "good trusty man with good recomendations/' and what salary would he pay. Here is a chance any one wishing such help. ?About 9 o'clock Thursday night "Wade II.

Ttrt rate of two-forty, .uorai: nueu uul of wood let your neighbor's pile alone until you have completed arrangements with him to borrow some. ?A young gentleman, who has a room up tow!;, and who on his own word never had a very extensive wardrobe, excited the pisy of his many friends on last Sunday morning, when with desolation and agony depicted on # / ^ L I ' / his face, he gave publicity to the fact that some thief had stolen his drets ?uit. He is a regular attendant at church, but he didn't go last Sunday. ?A negro was arrested on the southbound morning train on Saturday, who was suspected of having broke into the store of Mr. bimmont, ui Chester. Mr. Simmons anived on the evening traiu and identified his goods in possession of the prisoner. The thief was carried back to Chester 021 the same night. The negro had au abuudaut supply of candy, toys of all kinds, etc., in fact, he was a traveling ' 'racket store." ?"Watch for the modern Shakespeare in the personage of his namesake Joe, Thursday night. ?A bold burglary was committed at Mr. G.A. White's store on last TuesTI\o nritiMMW CmfU'd Of OllC ua> in-iii,. J.WV, ,.,~v a of the windows had been taken off, and the bond broke the window pane and stole about a peck of apples. A daring attempt it was to do this on main street and actually to make an opening- into the store on the front. These thefts, as we said in our last i-sue, arc growing to be very frequent and it would be well for the policemen to keep their eyes open. ?On Saturday night last a little darkey, Wade Moore, about 12 years old secreted himself in Maj. "Woodward's store at llockton, and was locked up. when the store was closed for the night. The clerks remembered having seen him about the store before it was closed, and went back to investigate and found him, and arrested him. lie is the same one that was caught in Mr. Skinner's oflice a month ago, in the act of burglary. ?As the matter of "mails on the I night trains is not generally under- j stood, we give the following infor-' -PufiMiiirxl hv the Postmaster. JlUUblXVia - _ Mail is despatched only 011 the northbound train at night, and only for points in North Carolina. Virginia, and the Northern and the Eastern States. No mail is sent 011 the south-bound train. Mail from points beyond this State is received 011 the 5 a. m. "train. Xo local mail sent or received at night. ?Mr. McMaster. who, as is generally known, owns a considerable quantity of property in Florida, loft Wednesday 011 his usual annual visit to that Suite. We are glad to hear that lie has reasons to believe that the much-talked-of phosphate boom is something substantial, and what is still belter, he thinks he has phosphates on his own lands. We hope he win unci it ail true. Land adjoining his has recently sold for fabulous prices. We are pleased to Mate to our readers that Mr. McMaster has promised to write us an account of his trip when he iclurns. ?Our wide-awake and efficient clerk of the weather, Major Jus. Pagan, has had affixed to the weather flagpole a very neat and useful arrangement. This consists of a narrow backing, fastened to the pole, and open on top. Through this opening the ropes hang into the box, thus affectively preventing their being tampered with. A small door, locked, 'gives access to the inside. A. glass is inserted in the door against which on the inside is fired the weather report. It can thus be easily read, and is protected from *;he weather. ?Sheriff Milling telegraphed to W. II.

Traylor's Ginliou.se Set on Fire?Discovered in Time to Save It?AScward of One Hundred Dollars Offered for Arrest and Conviction of the Incendiar.y. "We have had one of the quietest neighborhood* in the county?less <m,l o-onfvfil trouble?until last Mi4Vl o ~ Thursday night a small house which I used as a gin?house was set- on lire by some unknown person, or persons. ; The walls were charred and the lire made headway into a pile of seed and I moats where I found it on Friday; morning at 9 o'clock, slowly making j its way to the light?wood frame! upon which the gin was mounted, j It would then have taken only a few minutes to consumc the entire building including gin-head, feeder, condenser and presses, and probably would have resulted in the loss of? 38 bales of cotton piled near the house and seed of 20 bales. For what and for why should any one on earth wish to do me this private injury?

The South Carolina Mining and Manufacturing Co.. whose object is primarily the mining of kaolin, iiid the manufacture of all classes and kinds of articles made out of clay. ?ucn :is high grade fire brick, tiling. drain pipes, terra cotta etc. The Company will devote the larger part of its energies to the making of a high grade fire brick, and other fire proof materials. These fire brick are in constant demand; being used in fi welling houses, in all furnaces, in every coal burning locomotive engine, in the country, in glass works, smelting furnaces and the like, the demand being constantly in excess of the sup- j ply. In consequence of the scarcity of i kaolin and other fire clays?of which kaolin is the highest grade?the price of fireproof bricks is extremely high, thoy being quoted in Charleston at from $33 to $30 per thousand, while i the expense of manufacturing these I bricks is not much in cxcess of the cost of making ordinary bricks. Thej difference between J be two classes lies i in rlie ini'usibility ??t tbe kaolio brick. The Company bus leased the mining privileges upon twelve thousand acres <?J land, from six to twelve miles from Columbia, and extending from the railroad to the "Wateree ILiver. Ilcnce ihe Company has an outlet not only upon the railroad, but also upon a river navigable to tbe tea. The usually troublesome question of transportation is consequently greatly simplified for this new company. Mr. J. G. McXulty formerly of New York but nov; of Yorkville lias been elected general superiutendant aiul engineer. We learn that he lias j just made his report; and that he finds j the kaolin deposit five times as extensive as he expected to find it, and of as tine a quality as any in the world. Prominent capitalist, of Rock Hill, J Black's station and Chester arc I interesting themselves in this matter? j and the Company expects to commence its operation in a very short lime. [ We arc pleased to see that several well known Fairfield gentlemen are interested in tliis enterprise. Messrs.! C. A. .- Douglass, J. E. McDonald, and S. It. Ivutland arc members of the Board of Directors: and Mr. C. A. Douglass is President; Mr. J. E. McDonald is Solicitor, and Mr. II. X. Obcar is secretary and treasurer. Mr. W. IL Kerr and Mr. Arthur Hays arc among the stockholders, as well as those above named. Dr. B. Burney of the South Carolina Uni"VIr. Jos M. English of Columbia arc among- the promoters of this important enterprise. The stock of the Company is fixed at 8100,000. divided into shares of 8100. each. Of this amount S8S,o00. has been taken.

SHELL'S REVOLUTION AliY | IDEAS. Messrs. Editors: G. "W. Shell has lifted his voice as "one crying in the wilderness, prepare ye the waybut he does not intimate who will be the leader of this great reform. Will it be Mr. Tillman or Mr. Shell ? Will wholesale denunciation of the Democratic party charging it with barbarism, injustice and fraud be commenced again? Gov. Richardson was renominated by the last Democratic State convention to prove that the charges made against the democracy which we passed through so much to establish, and which we will honor afid maintain j were untrue. lie was not the choice of the people belore is. Li. liiman oegan his denunciations, and I do not believe that he would have received the nomination had this not been the case; but every true Democrat in the S'-ate saw that the abuse of our government had been carried too far for any change to be made at that time. Shall the organization of a ring of office holders (provided they be good and true Democrats) bring about such a tirade against our government? Any charge brought against it for fraud is i'tlse and should be promptly pronounced such by any true Democrat lu our State. Not since its victory in 187G has a single stain been upon the Democratic party. Then, Mr. Editor, is this cry for reform when everything is pure so far as the government itself is concerned right or proper? J. Hcndrix McCiane - " * "? ? * -i i- - be^an in tins style ana now uiu ne euu; By proving himself to be a Republican ot the very vilest type. The "ins" pre seated a solid front and have managed by combinations to hold the State offij cers regardless of the wishes of the people. Every charge of fraud and ;: cry for reform after the spirit ot Mr. ; Shell only increases their strength and places every true Democrat in line to defend?not them, but the Democratic ! party. Our people can concentrate ' their strength and elect officers to suit themselves; but can this change not I; be brought about quietly?ana with prudence? I, sir, have seen the ablest men who were the choice of the people f defeated by the machinations of poli; ticians and the powerful bearing of ) political machinery. I feel that in the r condition of our State a true Democrat should denounce any charge against 5 his government and should vote ana r work for his worst enemy on earth, . before allowing one vote to be lost to the democracy. Let us resolve that never by exterI nal pressure or internal division shall we countenance any man who strikes a single blow at ali that we hold dear viz: while siiprem?.'\v, independency of our State and freedom from the heel of its North'" . vagabonds who held ollice over us prior to 1876.
