Henry, Bingham, the first Methodist preacher to die in South Carolina, is buried at Cattle Creek Camp Ground. The stone that marked his resting plsce was destroyed by fire a few years ago when all the tents were burned. The trustees authorized their chairman, Dr. J. D. S.

It will be unveiled Saturday afternoon, on which cccassion several strong addresses will be delivered. County Election. The election passed off very quietly throughout the county, although there were some earnest and hard work done at the polls by the friends of the different candidates but all in good humor. The greatest interest centered in the Senatorial race, between 3Je9ors. Sharpe and Efird. At this hour, 3 p. m., the vote is so close in Ihe Senatorial race that it is impossible to say which one has been successful. Thirty boxes have been heard frcm giving 3 150 votes, of which for Solicitor, Timrnerman re ceived 1999; Rembert lUYy Senator?Sharpe, 1531; Efird, 1582. Representatives?Epting, 1749; E TL Shealy, 1367; Wingard, 1339; Hutto, 17S0 Hutto and Epting are probably elected. Auditor?Derrick, 1646; Lindler,1484. Supervisor?i'ry, 1147; Langford, 1964. Commissioners?Lucas, 1084; J W Shealy, 1901? Hendrix, 1525; Hallman, 1734. Shealy and Hallman are very likely nominated. There are six more boxes yet to ' " t?: _ _ "d: ^ , Dear irom, as ionow: nue aviu^*, Nates' School House, Rishton, Laird's Old Mill, PoDd Branch and Oak Grove, but it is thought that they will not materially effect the vote except in the Senatorial race and upon them hangs the fate of Messrs. Sharpe and Efird. The official vot6 in extra tomorrow. Stats Election. Maj John Earle has defeated Mr. John G. Mobley for Railroad Commissioner by a handsome majority.
