On Saturday last, the knights of the Palmetto Sabre Club held their last drill and tilt previous to their departure for Columbia-in au open field on the hill South pf the Beaver Dam. The day was bright and beautiful, and the ladies, of village and country, came forth in large numbers to witness and grace the scene, Aaj? m&i Jobjwtc^8rBrass- Band came forth to enliven anet glorify the scene And not only do these gentlemen play very finely, bat they have also an ambi tious and a tasteful eye for externals For instance they came to us on Saturday in a large and handsome wagoe drawn by four fine white horses, the head of each horse ornamented with a black 11 plume. Great was the enthusiasm they t aroused, and stirring was the mnsic they pealed forth over hill and dale. Their charioteer was no less 8 person than Maj Wilson Coleman-a guarantee of the metal and material of the Band. As a four-in-hand Jehu, Major W. astonished ns all by his skill. Of the Knights, we have only to say they were in fine feath er, fine figure, fine face, and rode, as usual, beautifully. pm- On Sunday night last, Alfred But ler, colored, living immediately in rear of Mr. R.

Afra late communication of Star Lodge. No. 99, A. F. M., the following tribute to the memory of Past-Master JOHN KNOTT, was unanimously adopted : STAR LODGE, No, 99, A. F. M., GRANITEVII&E, NOV. 6, 1878. The Committee appointed by thia Lodge of Master Masons, to draft a Pre amble and Resolutions on the death of Past-Master JOHN KNOTT, respectfully submit the following tribute of respect: Past-Master JOHN KNOTT, who de parted this life on the 24th September last, was born in Derbyshire, England, on the 16th October, 1824. Being endow ed with a well, regulated mind, andan ambitions spirit, he left his native coun try while in h is youth, to seek bis fortune j and fame in a distant land. To achieve such an enterprise, the United States be came the place of his choice and the home of his adoption. To the North he first | came and spent a few years ; but becom ing dissatisfied, he moved South, where by diligent study, and close application to business, he made himself one of the foremost cotton manufacturers in the country. Brother KNOTT was not a man of high ?itarary attainments; but one possessing general information, .and calculated to always fill a place o f usefulness in society. As it has pleased the Grand Archi tect of the Uni verse to remove suddenly and unexpectedly from our midst, our mnch esteemed Past-Master, John Knott, by apoplexy, inflicting thereby an irre parable loss to his. family, his town, and his Lodge. Therefore, Resolved 1st, Thau in the death of our much esteemed and worthy Past-Master, John Knott, Star Lodge holds a vacant chair that can never be filled. Resolved 2nd, That we deeply sympa thize with his bereaved family in their trials of atm ct! on, over the death of a j devoted husband and kind father. Resolved 3rd, That the Secretary of the Lodge be requested to furnish the family of our deceased brother with a copy of j these Resolutions, and have them print ed in the Edgefield Advertiser and in the Aiken Journal. Resolved 4th, That this Lodge be clad In mourning for thirty days, and a blank page in the Minute Book of the Lodge bs dedicated to his memory. J. E. DURR, C. K. HENDERSON, L. QUINBY, Committee. A Negro Child Whipped to Death. Below we append the details of a most brutal chdd-murder perpetrated near Bur jaw, about 22 miles from Wilmington, >n the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad fhe victim was a little boy about nine rears old, and the murderers are Amos Sregory and bis wife Mahala, all colored. The Wilmington Star says : From the evidence elicited during the examination it appears that the boy, who s about nine years old, and who was bound o tue parties accused, was seized by M? tala Gregory and tied to a tree, with his lands extended above his head, the alleged iffence being that of playing with other ?oys after being cautioned not to do so. >he then took a switch, the boy having >een previously stripped, and whipped dm with it as long as she wa3 able tb do o, finally relinquishing the task to her iusband. He procured other switches md the brutal chastisement was continu iJ, amid the most piteous appeals for mer y from thc suffering child, until it was ippajently lifeless. One of the witnesses estified that Amos Gregory said he would rhtp the boy until he obeyed him if he lied in live minutes afterwards. This wit less also stated that she lett while the vhipping was going on, but returned be iween six and seven o'clock in the even hg and found the child dead on the floor. >he proposed to strip it, but this was ob e?ted to by Mahala Gregory, who wanted he child shrouded with its clothes on, foublless with the desire to conceal the torrid evidences of brutality which mark ?d its body. The verdict: of the jury wai- in accor lance with th "the facts as given above. Amos and Mahala Gregory were arrest d and brought, to this city cy Deputy Sheriff W. L. Rivenbark and are now afely lodged in the county jail. Terrible Tragedy in Arkansas. LITTLE ROCK, November 6.-Yesterday wo negroes, driving a two-horse team, tote^some hogs from Doctor Eagle, one of j he leading tanners in Lonoake county, )n missing his hogs, Doctor Eagle, in ompany with two of his kinsmen and i AT. James Sullivan, started in pursuit, s )ne of the Eagles was an officer. About G iusk the party came up with the negroes ? ind took them in charge, after a little S truggle. Daring the night the two ne- JJ [roes escaped and reported in the neigh lorhood, which is composed almost exclu ively of negroes, that Ku-Klux had at acked them, and raised a posse of about hirty negroes to go in pursuit of them. ?nis morning Eagle and his posse proceed d in search of the two hog thieves, when hey were suddenly confronted by an arm d body of negroes and fired upon, killing o .11 three of the Eagles and mortally J rounding Sullivan. On hearing of the a iffairj the Sheriff of Louoake county sum- jj Qoned fifty men and went in pursuit of ? he perpetrators of the deed. The killing ?ccurred near the line of this (Pulaski) ] oucty and Lonoake. The Coroner went Iowa to-night to bold an inquest over the >odies. C=3t" We leam from the Albany (Ga.) IVeiPS that a man by the name of Fields ir?s killed in that city on the 3d inst., by | j Vir. Burrel T. Kemp". Fields was in Mr. K's bar-room, and without cause I?veiled lis pistol at Mr. Kemp, within a foot of j tis breast. Mr. Kemp thereupon " instant y seized the pistol hand with his left land, thrust it aside, and with his right rtruck the man a terrible blow in the face, knocking him back against the counter, md repeated the blow several times. He adled to his.nephew (Mr. J. M. Kemp) to take the pistol, which he did, and he then ?jected the man from the house to the j J sidewalk with force and a kick." The Ohos further says : A Jury of Inquest was summoned by the Coroner on Tuesday morning, and rendered a verdict that deceased came to Iiis death by blows in-flicted by Burrel T. Kemp. The testimony was of such a character however, that the Coroner declined to or der the arrest of Mr. Kemp, and no pro ?eV.-diogs have yet been instituted. Mr. Kemp, though confident he did not strike the fatal blow, and that it was not ?..track by any one j's his house., is deeply grieved at the unfortunate result, ann is anxious for a committal trial to vindicate his conduct. It is a sud affair, bat with thc lights be fore us we must conclude that the unfor tunate man brought on the fatal collision' and was himself the cause of his own un timely end. He Was bu i d in the eily ?.meta ry.

H. Bailey, of Greenwood, exploded, communicating fire to the building, and so seriously injuring the colored fireman; Bob Sims, that he c ied in about six hours. Mr. Bailey was in the mill at the time of the explosion, and was so fastened in by the falling timbera that it was with great difficulty that he was rescued from-the flames. A colored man was badly burnt. The wheat, corn and saw mills, together with the cotton gin and press, and some sixteen or eighteen bales of cotton, were burnt, and the loss in estimated at $7,000.
