Yesterday morning Prof. S S Lindler, sent us from his home in ^ the Ella section, several peach twigs Jf on which were full blown flowers, and in the afternoon Mr. Otto Heigman brought to this office a twig of peach flowers. This is rather early in the season for this fruit to bloom. w The buds and flowers are in thick clusters and from this fact we reason that if no injury is sustained from cold or other cause, the crop will be unusually large. However, gentlemen, we like your flowers very well; now bring on the peaches.

A petition is being circulated asking the County Commissioners to open up a public road leaving the Augusta road near the Joe Little place, cross the Two Notch road, thence by Emanuel church to Kennerley's bridge, thence by Styx and Poterfield, crossing the S A.

We are informed by Sheriff Caughman that the Columbia Evening Record was in error when it stated that he had made five arrest of persons charged with being implicated in the murder of John Meetze.
