Ill I he early history of Greenvillo, there wits a mysterious trage tly which in after years it became my duty to investigate pretty tally. Captain Maxwell, the father of John and Robert Maxwell, of Pendleion, was assassinated on his way to atleiid the circuit court sitting at old Pickeiisviile. lie was a gentleman of high character, the sun-in law ot General Robert Anderson, and Sheriff ot Washington County, which then composed the Counties now known as Greenville, Anderson, Pickens aud Oconee.? The ussnseins had inade blinds of bushes ou either side of the road, >1 ? ? - ou I in 1<> i,ui ii;i:n I iiioiliHUiVl'B ITUU1 0 ohecrvaliou. It was well known ? Iliat Captain Maxwell would have 1 to paaa the place on hid way to c court. He was shot and killed not ] far from life residence in the lower I part of Greenville. This ww to- f wards the close of the last cen- s turv. 1 Twenty years ago a commission \ was sent me from Mobile, to ex- t amine a great number of witnesses t living in Abbeville, Anderson, t Pickens and Greenville. A suit t had been brought in the court ut Mo t bile, involving a very large property?several hundred thousand dol c bus?and morever, the legitimacy e of one of the fi.*V families of the 1t city. Judge Campbell, of the Su- i prcme Court of the United States, t then at the bar, was counsel for I one of the parties, and Col. Phil- ? ips, formerly of South Carolina, c and uftertt-aritaitiii,....-f........re..-.-.. * . ... ..?v iyui tuvi ui gcuru* I tarv Stanton, in Washington City, t was of counsel for the other party, i Many other lawyers were likewise t employed in the case. A woman 1 by the name of Cynthia Presley, ? the illegitimate daughter of Dr. t Kennedy, who was prosecuted for o the murder of Captain Maxwell, a attempted to establish in court the I; marriage of her mother Sallie e Presley with Dr. Kennedy, whilst s he resided in Greenville District, li and before his marriage to a Spun e ish lady in the City of Mobile, ? whilst the City belonged to the I crown of Spain. A forged cerlifi I cato of the Rev. Mr. Tarrant, a u Baptist clerg} inan, was produced, | cei tifying that the marriage cere r tnony was )>ertormcd by him in t bis ministerial capacity on Grove s Creek, Greenville,South Our',lino. ( There was a good deal of perjury <3 and subornation of perjury in the v case. The marriage was alleged f to havo taken place in 1793, 1 t think. t The plaintiff made such a 6trong v showing that the children of Dr. 6 Kennedy found it necessary to ' prove by all those who were living jJ and had known Dr. Kennedy, that " such a marriage was never heard ? of by them, and that it was alto n gather improbable a?.d absurd from the different social positions ? ot the parties. In this way I learn- a ed all about the circumstances and a suspicions of the murder ns well '' as of the pretended marriage. In 11 tho hands of n writer of fiction, n }' ino6t thrilling story could be made 11 out ot the facts and circumstances, t( as testified to trie under oath, A by many of the most respectable e< citizens in the upper country. ? Captain Maxwell and Dr. Ken u nedy were both gentlemen ot high social position, neighbors, and intimate friends for several years.? *They were incn of education, tal ^ cuts and property, and had the ^ confidence, esteem and affection :>f all who knew them. They had ^ x difference about a small bill (| which Dr. Kennedy bad rendered against the Captain. 1 hey were ^ both gentlemen of high temper, and strong impulse, and h bitter r feud grow up between them from ^ this trifling circumstance. Caplain Maxwell bad been travelling . in Virginia and stopped at a bouse where there were others staying all night. In the morning he made an early start, and through a mis- j take to.?k down a watch which he f) inpposed to be bis own, but which was of less value than bis. The itlier traveler discovered the mis take, and sent a messenger after q l:im with bis watch and made the v ?Xf?_lulM?ro R.unn VI. ---- ?*? ~ ~ h zinia who hud heard of ttie cir- g cutnstntice told the story to the halt ^ brother of Dr. Kennedy, greatly lo his prejudice ot Captain Max- ^ well. The Dr. repeated tho story . its he had heard it from his half brother, and it was told again by ^ others. The Captuhi immediately ( brought action of slander against ? Dr. Kennedy, his half brother, Col. Elis.s Etnle, Mr. Hobinson and others who had repeated the Y dander. He sent commissions to c Virginia and proved most satisfae- ^ torily to every one and Dr. Kenticdy himsell tlic utter falsity of g lie charge. The actions were all compromised,except those brought j( tgainst Dr. Kennedy and his half j brother. The Dr. went to Cap- (.j uin Maxwell and expressed him 8t iclf entirely satisfied, and asked ^ or the action against himself to be a ibandoned also. The Captain told tim in reply that fie had malig<* lantly repeated the slander on sov- ^ iral occasions and the action should ^ jo on. High words ensued and ^ brents were made by Dr. Keune ^ ly. The case was continued sov- oi mil court*, ami tin ally Dr. Konne "j1, iy being afraid ot the result, noved t<> Georgia where he maried a lady of fortune and great espectability. ^ Tho action at length was ready jj or trial, and Captain Maxwell was er in hia way to attend court when t, ie? was shot as 1 have already (j lated. lie lingered several days, b, ind in the uieantime, his lawyers j," tressed the case to trial, and re- tli iiii'ur<ut ' rv.?<VMH?Hi; IUIUIUB H^KIIIIl ?/I.

Tliey therefore ;m ployed General Blair who wot amous as a detective in thot< iines, and Ben. Sturrett, n hug* nan of gigantic strength, to go U lie village (Elbert or Washiugtoi think,) and arrest Dr. Kennedy ind bring liiiu to Greenville foi rial. Blair and Starred stopped ne night at a hotel in the village, lid Blair was taken very 6udden y ill as he pretended, and enquird for a doctor. Kennedy was cut for. In the meantime their torses were saddled. Blair cover d up in bed with boots, sour, and ;reat coat. Starrett btocu behind he door with ropes, gags, &c.? Kennedy came into the rooin and is ho approached the bed of hit latient lie was pinioned l>y Star ett and quietly secured. They nountcd hiin on a horse, and in tead of making directly for South Carolina, tbey went in an opposite lirection. Very 60ou tlio village ras aroused, and Kenucdy't riends started in pursuit. Bat ho}' traveled rapidly in one direc ion, whilst Blair with h 8 prisoner nis going a different course. Their trategem was successful, and they jdgea their prisoner in Old Camridge jail. They had, however, eaten and abused him very much n the road to extort confession ltd succeeded. On the trial his lawera had his coat and shirt taken ft* to expire to the jury his bruises nd wounds. They pioved an libi by several persons who saw litii at boinc the morning of the uurder. lie was acquitted, and is wife who had been present durug all the trial, rusheo to the doc or and embraced him with tears nd ecreain. Thero was quite a cene in court which was very raphically described to me under arli by General Garrison, who 'itnessed the trial at l'it'kens ille. After the trial was over Dr. Kennedy spoke of returning home irough the neighborhood where e formerly lived, and where the under had been committed.? Injur Thomas Benson advised him ot do so as lie would be in daner. Enoch 13. Benson, then a lite boy, the son of Maj ?r Benson, 'as present and heard theconver lit ion between Kennedy and hid ither. He told me that he had a ivid reuieinbrai.ee of the strikig appearance ot Dr. Kennedy t the time and hid expression. He :as dressed in a neat suit of black loth, with a beautiful small sword tilt around hid waist. He straightened himself up and said. 44 Major letison, I am not at raid to go here I please." Sallie Presley, the mother of lynthia, was then living in Greeni.le, and never pretended to have ecu married to Dr. Kenned}'.? be was a beautiful, though a very ad woman, and humble in eiruiuBtnucca. Her daughter grew p to be as bad as her mother, and i the course of my examination f witnesses, I came across a auglitcr of this Gvnthia, living in )conee County, who disclosed to tne lie whole conspiracy of her moth r and others to prove that Iter randtnothcr was man ied to Dr. Cennedy. This information 1 otniuntiicated to Judge Camp ell and Col. Hamilton, and the ult was abandoned l>y the oppoite lawyers. The wife of Dr. Kennedy died i Georgia without children, and e moved to Moi>ilc where he maricd again as has been ulready atcd, and had three daughters, uo of whom married Col.

After Mobile and alt the S|>anli Territory was ceded to the nited States, the younger broth of Dr. Kennedy came to the I .^ 1>: .1 O .? ngniw xviver uiviumg oouili arolina from Georgia, and met r appointment, some of tlio iends of General Anderson, tor o purpose of compromising the images of the slander case.? rliilst they urere counting the ? money?*11 in gold?an officer I stepped in and arretted him a* an i accomplice in the murder of t Maxwell. The young man taw t that lie had been deceived, and i very dclil?erafcly brushed the gold > on the table into his saddlebags, i and said that he now saw what they hud intruded by the propped . meeting, lie remained in Pen i dleton jnil for some time and con ' tinned liis study ? t medicine. One ? night the d-*>r of tho jail was bro , | ken open and \ otitic Kenned v r??. leased. The lion, ?atnuel Earle I had been cli-cted Sheriff of I en - dl ton District '?y the Legislature, > and had appointed Cooper his i deputy and jailor. Suspicion at s tached to the jailor on account ot 3 the gold which it was known Ken> nedy nad with him. This excited i Mr. Earle, the Sheriff, in a high r degree, and he threatened to put Cooper's ears in his pocket on I sight. The jailor was therefore , terribly alarmed. Dot I think - Mr. Earle became satisfied that his suspicions of Cooper wcie not well ( founded. At least Cooper did not lose his ears, and was never prose cuted for the escape. Many years afterwards this old man Cooper i was a school teacher in the village of Greenville, and may l?c rctnetn i hcrcd by some of our old citizens. ?

The same gentleman im> formed ine that lie had always bo lieved Captain Maxwell was mar dered by Indians, instigated by some of Dr. Kennedy's friends.? Cut public opinion, whether true or false, was that Maxwell was slain by Kennedy himself, notwithstanding his acquittal. [CONTINUED NEXT WEEK ] ?? .. Ill I I I I 111 | Almost a Kingdom. The magnitude of one of tbe many splendid farms which now dot maav portions of our magnifi , cent Western domain, is thus sketched In a correspondent writing from Peoria, Illinois: The farm of M. L. Sullivan, of , Burr Oak, near Chatswortli, Livingstone County. 111., is not only a big hut a well managed and profitable enterprise. The farm is ' eight miles square, containing 40,9 0 0 acres? sixty tour sections Government survey. It is subdivided into thirty-two farms of 1,'280 acres each. Each farm has a captain and first and second lieutenant, all under control of a commander-in chief, its owner, and Brigadier General, J. M. Miner. There arc 15.00 acres under 1 the plow, over 10,000 of which is ' in Pitt'ii DAOflow I. * ?-1-- 1 , ... w. .Mia uvtiauii, n IIICI1 IUUKS ' finely : this required 1.000 bushels 1 of com for 6ecd this your.

The \vh ?le of this land was entered from Government about twenty years since by its present owner at $1,35 per acre. The farm at this time, with the improvements made upon it, is worth about $2,~ ! 000,000; so yon see we have a millionaire in central Illinois in the person of a 6turdy farmer, who shows 44 what 1 know about farming.

Imagine lier Misprise when, upon aadi casing liiin, she found that the gentleman was an entire stranger to her. Abashed, completely confused, she vainly endeavored to find words for an apology, but her speech utterly failed her. The gentleman, . however, gallantly came to the rescue, and asrurcd her that no harm had been done. While this little ? -j- ?wv. v ?? na transpiring in the park, what was the husband doing? Going to his place of business this morning, ho met u friend there, who, with what intent we know not, casually remarked to hiiu that lie met his (the merchant's) wife in the park, and playfully suggested that such u tiling might be that she luttnd something of rare enjoyment there, or else she would not go so olten. Being a little inclined toward a jealous disposition, be thought he could spare time to juet run up there, surprise his wife, and run back again, at the same time satisfying himself about his friend's suggestion, lie drove to the park, leaped from his carriage, and hurried on through the uvcnucs in search of his dear ones. {Sitting at the foot of the monument whs his wife, and at her feet a gentleman who was a perfect stranger to him, caressing and chatting with his child. With a cry of rage and despair, he sprang upon the supposed invader of Ms family peace, seized him by the throat, and presented a revolver at his breast. The wife, innocent of any wrong, retained woederly her presence of mind, and begged, plead, and implored bim to wait at? explanation.
