The telegrams on first page will ihow how the storm commenced to rew, and we clip from the Augusta Chronicle. the origin au results of the difficulty. The excitement through ut the State has been intense, and many of the militia threw down their irms. But prompt obedience of the Greenville companies speaks volumes for the loyalty of the up country. At this writing the State troops are in possession of Dirliogton, and all is auiet It has required the utmost exertion of cool heads on both sides to avert still greater calamities. The dispensaries at Darlington and Flor ence have not been sacked. The details will be more fully given in the next issue. The following communication re ceived here to day gives the first in formation as to how the trouble star ted at the depot in Darlington : "A very sad tragedv occurred, at the station on the C. & D. railroad by which four persons lost their lives, and three others were painfully wounded " It began with an attack made suddenly and unexpectedly by Fioyd, the dispe'nsarj~ agent, on Youn'g Rodgers, the clerk at the Entf-rpr-ise Hotel. A young man rushed forward to) stp the fight and the twenty con. stables who were present covered him with their guns and ordered him back. The city marshal about this time, with an assisetant, ca me up to quell the fight, and the constables covered him also with their '- mncheter's and refused to let him interfere. One of the constables, MicLendon, began cursing Frank Norment, who wished to stop the fight, and on his answer ing back, shot him dead. The consta bles then presented-their gun., and two of them, Pepper and another whose nanme I forget, fell. Pepper was shot dead and the other was mortally' wounded. The rest of the constables hurried off a short dis distance, faced about and flred a vol ley and then broke and fled Louis Normnent received a painful wound. Our brave chief of police, in this part ing volley received a painful wound, and young Lewis Redmond was shot deadj." .The train that was fired into by the citizens was seen this morning. It showed that seventeen bullets hit it. The constable, McLendon, I under stand, was the man who killed both of the citizens. I am told that he emptied his Winchester and his pis. tol bo0th before he -was downed and himself killed. Thirty men from Edgefleld will be here at 4:40 forming a military com pany. .F. J. W. DBFYING THE GOvERNoN. Columbia, 8. 0., March 81.--The governor has declared Darlinigton and Florence counties in a state of insur rection. He has also ordered the railroad authorities not to transport any bodies of men unless authorized by him. The railroads have thus far refused compliance. The governor has also ordered the telegraph com-. panies not to tr-ansmit any news of a war-like tendency. Obedience to this order has likewise been refused. The Edgefield Hussars,-Gov. Till. man's home company, will leave Edge. field at 6 p. m. for Columbia. The Sally Rifleti of Orangeburg and a company from Aiken will also reach hero to-night. TIhe ten Greenville do.mnty companies are under arms and awaiting orders to move. Telegra phic response has been received from~ mnilitary companies throughout the State, and during the night and all tomorrow troops will be pouring into Columbia. Th e situation is very grave. It is understood on the other hand that citizens of Columbia have signed a paper agreeing to go to Dar-lington to asisiit the citizens who are after the coustables.
