More of the Avondale Horror.
APPALING NcENKs.
The Now York World's correspondent
at Avondale gives a very graphio descrip.
tion of the scone at the mine at the timo
the bodies of the dead miners were
brought up from the pit. Tho appear
ance of the dead men was very singular,
nearly all of them showing in their faces
and on their bodies a ruddiness that
could hardly be distinguished from the
glow of health. Only one man was dis
igurA, and the expression on nearly all
the kee was calm and peaceful, doeo
ting that the consummation of the as
ph xia was almost wholly painless.
1ost of the unfortunate men wero
Welshmon, the number of Irishmen be
ing very small, and but one American is
cnow'u to have been in the mine. When
the pt'ains of their labor had been washed
away, the spectators behold the curling
looks, the finely cut features and calum.
nai teoks and busts peculiar to the sons
of Cymri. But the sight of those dead
bodies, showing neither enaciation nor
isoase, was far loss painful and terrible
than the sight of the widows and father
less children. Tho loud cries of grief
and walls of despair which wore reported
to have accompanied the first news
of the disaster, had died away when
the full force of the blow was felt.
The widowed women sat in their homes,
usually on their threshold or near them,
unmoved, sterm and stolid, looking out
upon their neiWbbors or the throngs of
palssing strangers with a stony stare that
seemed to express a wonder that the sun
should shine and the rivers flow, and
mon and women go and come, now when
all that made life worth living for was blot
ted out. The correspondent noted but
two exceptions to this silent mourning.
One was an old Irish woman who rocked
to and fro in hor chair, crooning the
name of her dead husband or son, and
the other was a young Welsh girl whom
be found writhing on the ground by the
roadside, burying her face in the earth
with wild tumultuous bursts of sobbing.
and broken ejaculations that she might
die. From the general temper and de.
meanor of the miners, the World's cor.
respondent believes that the dark days
are soon coming for the capitalists of the
mining district. The Welshmen are
sullen and dogged, after their nature;
the Irishmen, after their nature also, are
noisy and fierce, and both classes be
lievo that their comrades have been
murdered. The Celtic portion at least
are very demonistrative in their expres
sion of this opinion, and their resentment
shows itself in their demeanor towards
overy one not of their class and station.
One gray-headed old miner who guarded
the bodies of the dead, was approached
by the correspondent with a request
that he might be allowed facilities for
learning tie names of the unfortunates -
the desire was civilly expreqsed, and the
proper credentials were shown, but the
miner broke out fiercely : "Get their
names, is it? Pot on a lamp on ver hat
then, and go down the shaft like 'a man
for their names. I suppose veer here to
make money out o'this. God d-n ye."
TuESoumr CAROLINA UNivEnsiTy.-At
a meeting of the Board of Trustees, hold
yesterday, the following memhers were
present : GOv. Scott, Comptroller Neagle.
Auditor Tomlinson, Superintendent of
Education Jilson and Senator Rober tson.
We learn that the following new pro
lessors were elected:
Dr. A. G. Mackey, the Nester of the
'radical party in South Carolina, wras
-elected Professor of Natural and Me

Dr. John Lynch, Demonstrator of
Anatomy, vice Dr. Ed. D. Smith, re
moved.
Dr. Mackey is well known in this
State. His correspondence with Bowon,
to say nothing of his previous elegant
ciforts, shows a command of language
that mpmy be well in a professor ; but, be
fore this, we were not aware that lie as.
pired to natural and mnechanicah philoho.
phy and astronomy. WVe suppose the
idea of the Board was that his election
would, at best, make the Uiniversity
"see stars" from the telling blow it gets
in his election to a chair in that seat of
learning. Dr. Jones, we are Informed, is
of Georgia. We do not know this pro,
fessor. Professor Heart is a graduate o1

Wedn9sday Mornlng,Sept'bor22, 1809.
PROMEssOR DuPR' LZOt1U%E.
We were fortunate in being one of the
number who listened 'to Prof. DuPro's
splendid lecturo in the Methodist
Church Monday night last. The sub
ject--"The Relations of Science with Ro
ligion" was so ably, clearly, poetically
and logically treated, that we sat on
tranced and lost to all sense of departing
time until admonished by the closo of
the lecture.
And, deserving as was the o1ject of
this lecture, and extensively as it was
announced, yet, for somo reason,or for no
reason at all, there were but few of our
intelligent anI nionied citizens present.
We do not includo oursolf among
those classef, but we were present, and
tnost royily were we entertained and in.
structed by as eloquent a discourse as
wo have had the privilege of listening to
for many a day.
The Professor intends delivering ler.
tures through the several towns of this
State, in order to raise funds for the ro
pairing and purchasing new chemical and
philosophical appa:atus for the use of
Wolford College, and we hope ho will
meet with all tho success his high tal
ents and ominent attainments, together
with so noble an object, deserve.
DEPLORABLE CASUALTY.
A portion of the trestle over Conga
reo swamp, upon the S. C. 11. It., (near
Kingsville) was destroyed by a fallen
tree, last Saturday night, and owing to
datkness the engine and a niumber ol
freight cars which preceded the express
coaches were thrown into the gap, and
destroyed by fire. The engineer, Mr.
Sebron IHargrove, was burnt to death,
and Mr. J. Gilbert, fireman, instantly
killed. Thirteen frcight cars and con.
tents were destroyed--loss to the Rail
road Company, over $100,000. The
mails were saved. The express messen.
ger saved all his money packages except
$120, but the express and through
freight and passengers' luggage were
lost. We learn there was no insurance
upon the goods by the Railroad. The
conductor's and the passenger's coaches
wero uncoupled and run back, preven.
ting a fearful loss of life. Grt at credii
Is given to all the officers of the trair
for presence of nind,-courage and de.
votion to the sufferers. The scene wa%
truly fearful, and stiong men shed tear,
at sights that probed their hearts' delth,
It is said that Mr. Ilargrove met his sad,
quick, melancholy death with cool corn
posure. Painful indeed must have beer
the message which he sent to his wife.

THE AVONDALE DISASTER.

conveyed the sad tidings of the A vondal
disaster, and which has made countIes
numbers mourn, comes the intelligenc
from Europe that disasters sonmewha
similar have occurred in Prussia and i
Englanfl. Ove.r one hundred men ani

leaving several hundred widows and oi

grief for the widowed hearts at the litti
hamlet of Avondale. "Childish cndeai
monts, and cruel snparaion and returr
and sudden destruction,'' are the stapiei
says the IIearth and hlomao, for a true
sad, sweet story, --a new tale of Wy<

IlSAnD Faoxi.-Firom an interestin
letter in the Columbia Phconix, of ti

a item which refers to the "position"
gallant Newberrian occupied in the la
~grand ball at White Sulphier Springs :

What place in the picture will the
Newberry Agricultural Society have in
the approaching fair at Columbia?
Tu WRAT119n, &c.-The weather continues
irrepressibly warm and dry. Owing to the *x
treme and long continued drought the cotton
has opened much earlier than usual. About 600
bales uf new ootton have changed hands in ou
market.
Time flies upon slippers of list, and it
is very precious. The 11th of November
is the opening day for the Agricultural
fair at Columbia.
Many of our merchants are North
some in Richmond, Baltimore and Phil.
adelphia, and others in Now York, Bos
ton and elsewhere, laying in all the lateal
styles of goods suitable to this markot,
Newberry can boast of quite a number ol
enterprising merchants.
Mr. Edward Poeiss, of Charleston,
who has traveled through North and
South America, states, that he foune
chills and fever especially in such coun.
ties where the people cat much corn
bread and homniny. The physicians ol
our country would oblige us by giving
their opinion about this matter.
Saturday last was a lively day; th(
:ide walks were lined with pedestrians
and the streets and public squares filek
with conveyances and wagona laden witl
our great staple. Cotton buyers and mer
chants were quite busy. The merchanti
were pleased with their cash transactions
The day closed with John Barleycori
hugely in the ascendant among the col
ored gentry.
During the past week we were forel
bly reminded of the transitory nature o
all earthly bliss, by receiving the an
nouncement of a wedding, and within i
few short hours thereafter, the sad in
telligence of the death of a near relativi
of the bride, who was present and tool
part in the ceremony. Truly, sunshini

:TIME AND ETERNITY.
We are sojourners from Time to Eter

pointed time when we must pass from

if we should be permitted to live all the ,
days that are allotted to man, which are
three score and ten years, oven then
it is short.
But how fow survive that time, how

bloom of life to Eternnity. We cnn not
recall time therefore we should be diii
gent, striving to improve every minute
of our short time as it glides swiftly by
a to hauncht us into Eternity. If wo have I

- striving for the glittering prites of
-earth.
And if we should attain all the riches
and honors of this world what would it
avail us if we had not the love of Christ,
Vwhy should we be so intent upon earthly

LovE is IkIJSn.-A curious marriage
occurred last week in St. Louis. A
0stone.blind bridegroom was led by his
of blushing bride to the altar of a Justice
e, of the Peace. That honest and benevo
ro lent functionary felt it to be his duty to
a inform the poor blind man that the
chnsen of his heart was really one of the
ro ugliest women In the world, and that
to she had already, to his certain knowi
is edge, buried two husbands. To this the
ls bridegroom responded that be had seen
tihe lady a great many years ago, and
o that, according to the best of his recol.
lection, she was then "a thing of bean.
Sty" and a form of life and light."' As the
in unfortunate man insisted upon being
married to this dream of his earlier and
te happier days, the knot was tied; but the
SJustice swore that he couldn't in con
fscience take a fee for doing it, and so the
poor victim was led away rejoicing.

ue.1T IS SAID THAT CAL
8AYA Bark has a peculiar effect upon th
ivet, end guards the system a galinst dis
~ases by exposure and irregular diet. It I
ocnceded that the great success of the won
lerful Plantation Bitters, which previous t
ur late unhappy diBecuities, was found I
neat Southern homes, was owing to the ex
ract of Calisaya Bark which It contained a
ne of the principal ingredients. In con
Irmation of this we have heard one of ou
listiuguished Physicians remark, that when
aver he felt unwell from ordinary dietetic o
itmospherie Causes, he invariably relieve,
uimself by Plantation Bitters. We speal
idvisedly when we say that we know it ta
e the best and moat popular medicine it

From Rev. R. y'eford. Vissionary in Chint
new visiting hi oei en
DUAU Suns :-During a residence of somi
en years as a missionary In Siam ani
Thins, I found your Vegetable Pain Killer,
nest valuable remedy for that fearful scourge
he Cholera.
In administering the medicine I foun<
I most effectual to give a teaspoonful c
ain Killer in a gill of hot water sweetene<
rith sugar; then, after about fifteen minute
eogin to give about a teaspoonful of the
siae mixture every few minutes until relie
ras obtained. Apply hot applications, te
he extremities.* Bathe the stomach witl
he Pain Killer, clear, and rub the limb
iriskly. Of these who had the Cholera
nd took the medicine faithfully in the wa.
tated above, eigh t out of ten recovered.
