Fourth ol Jilly at Clearmont. Clearmont, July 9.- Clearmont is a beautiful hillock lifting itself stealthily above its surroundings, which aro in the main gently rolling and commanding a view for miles in all directions. At its base and within one hundred yards is the Southern Railway, whose passing grains add no little to its imp?rtanos as an ideal picture. A nioe ohuroh and a oemetery, with a well equipped aoadomy between, grace tho highest point, while iu the back grouud ?B original forest, well calculated tor the erection of platforms, otc, tor large gatherings. By the sig nificance of the original languette from which the name is derived, we traoe the beauty and appropriateness of the uame, wbiob leminds us of the taste, intel,i gen .1; and gratitude of our predecessors: Clara Monte, renowned, illustrious, bright, fair mountain. The writer felt that his feet were on saored ground when 0 recalled an article by Carr MoDonald, of pr cc i ou H memory, published in 1801, giving a long succession of tecchors who labored there, and pupils educated, many of them reaching distinction in war no less than in peace. During the undeveloped period of our county's history Clearmont was second to no neighborhood in ohuroh aud sohool facilities. To-day she bears the distinc tion of having the only surviving or active Grange in the county, while the spirit of progress and thrift of her farm ers are manifest on every side. This order hold its annual plonio on the glori ous Fourth, vvhich was a success in every particular. Tho number present was variously estimated at from 1.500 to 2,000, every seotion of the oounty being repre sented. The chief attraotion was the speeoh of Hon. W. K. Thompson, of Liberty Hill, Kershaw county, whose subject was the Grange, its objects and advantages to the agricultural classes, and had the effect to make all Graugera Eresent proud that they woro patrons of unhandvy, and thoBe who were not feel it a duty and privilego to unite with the order and stand shoulder to shoulder in the effort to ameliorate the conditiou of the farmer morally, intellectually and financially. Mr. Thompson is a practical farmer and may be classed among those individuals known as country gentlemen of the old Southern typo, we had the pleasure of hearing him address the pupils of a school in our oounty about three years ago and have been anxious to hear him ever since along other lines. Tho Grange certaiuly has the right man to set forth her principles and uphold her standard. Iiis earnestness, sim plicity, magnetism and taot in holding the attention of children, no less than that of the grown people, entitles him to the appellation of "one of nature's noblemen."

Mann, candidates for the Legislature, made speeches whioh were well received. The Westminster oornst band turned out in uniform quite attractive and dis ooursod excellent music at intervals. And hero let us exclaim, Hopi hop ! Hur rah for the Westminster cornet baud. Our home is almost in eight of West minster, yet we never heard a horn toot, and really did not know she bad organ ized a band. We are at a loss to know whore the band did its practicing. This cor (i rm s what has always been oin- opin ion of Westminster, viz.: that she is a modest town and not tri v.-:, to blowing ber own boru. The pieces wore fault lessly executed and I am sure that I volco the ? ontiniont of the entire audi ence when I thank the band for its pres ence and entertainment. No citizenship oan be truly pat riot ic that is ignorant of its national airs. The people should hear ' them am' catch the spirit that prompted th ur authors to compose them. To the Grange let us bid God-speed, the same to tue FtrnojiV Uuion and to tho Cotton Association. Let them co operate and ao'jmplisu m.moi .hing for tho farmer. Their objeots are it'entioal.

C., July 11._On? of thu roost blood-curdling deeds ever com milted iu this county occurred near Ruftin this morning about day break, when J. \V. Irnegan, a pros perous farmer of that neighborhood, evidently turned suddenly insane, seized au' axe and slew hie wifo and four obildren. They were all wrapped in peaceful slumber. Irnegan stealthily scoured an axe and first brained Ins wife, then his ohildren. George, the old. est, 16 years of age, first: andj suc cessively, Corrie, 8 years old, Thomas, 4 years old, and Lillie May, the youngest, who was only 2 years old. The oldest boy was not killed outright, but wa? brought to this plaoe and operated upon, dying shortly afterwards. Immediately after the commission of this brutal deed Irnegan went to his neighbor, Mr. Salisbury, and re ported the occurrence to him. The neighbors were summoned and took the demented slayer of his family in oharge and summoned a physician. D. M. and B. R. Ulmer brought Irnegan to ?he Walterboro jail, where ho is bt:ng hold, subject to the aotion of the proper authorities. He talks freely of the killing, and says the family were in prosperous oirourastanoos, but he feared his wife and ohildren, whom he loved very dearly, would one day be turned out of house and homo, and it was to pre vent this that he slew them. He came to this country many years ago from Sweden and was for several years book-keeper for J. M. Donnelly, who ran a saw mill near his home. About ten years ago he bought a farm about one mile from Ruffin, a station on the railroad, about twelve miles from here, and has been in easy circumstances. Some years ago he made an at tempt to out his own throat, and it is thought that, in another demented state of mind, he committed this hor rible deed.
