Good idea. Say, taxos are pretty high. Wonder if it would hurt to spend a dollar or so on Brighton Street. . , -f?\\ V "-"^ $ DrJJ. A.

Where is tho man who conceived tho idea ''. Our young friend Mr! J. Hermann W?hlers has purchased a very tiuo horse . Wc hope ho wont rido over his oppo cuts and constituent* rough sh id.

Wo call for a full meeting of Council, and move that tho street bill be taken from the table. Mr. J S. AlbcrgOtti has been suffer ing for several days, and is coo'i lol to his home. We hope he will bo oat to meet the Carolinas with his el ab oti Tuesday next iu Charleston. Judge Co?ke paid us a visit on ?Thursday last. 11? is the verv picture ol health.

If we can roio through this catnpjiigu wo shall not care so much about the stand. !**. ? A Both, however, are at the coiumund of our devil. Mr. Henry Riekoubakcr demonstrated to us on yesterday that be is a man of largo generosity', and a successful plan ter. In tho water melon lilts ho can't be got ahead of.

The youths who nmke up these two clubs ^ boast of their skill, and the champion Carolinas may yet find in thctu foes .worthy of their steel. We regret to learn of tho death of Mrs Ella M. Frederick (-nee Browning) the dearly loved wife of our fellow citi zen John l' Fredrick 10m i. The sad event occurred at the old family home, near Howe's Pump, on Tuesday morning the l-ith of July. It has cast a gloom over the largo circle of theucquuintauccs and connexions of the family. The funeral services were perfonuel at 10 o'clock Wcducsday morning at New Hope Church in tho presence of a large and saddened congregation. The wolds of burial were pronounced and the remains of the wife and mother committed to the dust. Flowers were placed upon the rahfid mound and the concourse thoughtfully dispersed. Mrs. Frederick had most tenderly endeared herself to all whom she met. iler.-clf uf an affoctiouute disposition, she gained the affections of all. A void is made in a widowed heart, a little ouu will miss its mother's caress, a vaean cy in u family circle,a peaojfuland lovely life is closed! Her little boy. who, with its father most bitterly will feel this bereavement, was asked where vVas its mother and replied : ''Mamma is gone to Heaven." From its inothor'a home, ni.iy the little fellow's consolation uud guidance oomc as he grows to realize his loss. The warm sympathies of tho commit i itv arc offered to the bereaved husband.

It seems that a white man named Phillips had boon l.v ing with a mulatto girl nbmt 15 years of age, and being threatened with exposure, determined upon murd-jr. This ho accomplished by inducing his victim to follow him in tho diro'tian of Aikeu county, under the promise that he would "fix her all right." Having got her near the river where his colored men hud been stationed to assist hi n i u his hellish design, ho got out of his buggy, directing the gill to do likewise and shot her. She fell but was not killed, lie then instructed h's colored accom plices to finish hi.s work. They shot her then until she was dead. During her death agonies she was deliver cd of the child begotten by this fiend, Phil lips. These blood hounds having com mitted murder, set about then, as all incarnate devils do to secrete tho evi dence of their ghastly dood. The wo man and child were tied together, and hung about with irons and thrown into tho river. On the 4th of this month, however, they were discovered in a cove by two men who were out fishing. The body of the murdered girl was at once recognized, and the seducer and nur derer tmpected. Steps were taken by Trial'Justice Phillips and others which led to the nirct-t of all three of tho parties. T'he colo red men confessed their guilt, ftnd that they were to rc coivo one hundrpd dollars a pioco for taking a human lifo.

They have even discovered that what tipj car to be misfortunes are really blessings in disguiso. The great flood iu the Southwest, last spring, which covered thousands of square miles of the littest cotton lauds in the country and reducod thousands of agricultural laborers to the point of starvation, has really brightened the prospect ol a large yield of tho staple. The New York Daily Bulletin has the amusing effrontery to assert iu this connection : "But experience has demonstrated that in undations aro not always calamitous; but that, nn the countrary, the South is actually benefited by them." The bears will infor m us after awhile that caterpillars and the army worm are the uccessary adjuncts of a large crop. COMMERCIAL. Ill A 15 UKT K i:l'OUTS.
