Straps and darts. ? A terrible scandal has been caused in Columbus, Ohio, by the discovery that a dog has just been buried in the most aristocratic part of Green Lawn, the cemetery where a negro's bones were not allowed to rest a few years ago. ? All the people now living in the world, say 1,400,000,000, could find standing room within the limits of a field ten miles square, and by aid ot a telephone could be addressed by a single speaker. In a field twenty miles square they could all be comfortably seated. ? i?reci. Asniora, an Aiaoama ourgiar, was sentenced to hard labor for five years. He has served that term, and also five years on his costs. He has nearly two years more before his debt on account of his trial's expenses are paid. He is paying at the rate of five cents per day. ? Mr. Thomas Butler, of Utah, where he owns a stock farm, is now preaching polygamy in Maine, where he hopes to make Mormon converts, and though a pronounced polygamist he is a bachelor, thirty-seven years old, preaching from principle, he says, not practice. ? Maxwell, the supposed murderer of Preller, was arraigned for trial in St. Louis on Wednesday, but the Courthouse was so crowded that the witnesses who were in the building could not make their way to the stand, and the case was continued. He will be tried in about ten days. ? The women engaged in the production of cheap Bibles are the worst paid in London. If the people who are engaged in folding and binding cheap Bibles to send to the heathen are half starved in order to do it, we are likely to make more heathens at home than we convert abroad. mi_ ^ L!11 _ r 3 1.^^ "> 4-i ? j.lie uin ui uiuieruiKfi lucmtt, ?nu figured at the Grant funeral, was much less than was at first anticipated. The exact figures are S14,169.75. This embraces, also, $5,000 for five hundred carriages. He says he did not charge more than he would charge any body else for the same elaborate service. ? Jefferson Davis incidentally mentions as one of the results of the fully restored Union, that he expects to get 900 bales of cotton from his Mississippi plantation this year, and informs an interviewer that he has no desire to talk about the war?probably preferring to leave that ancient history to John Sherman. ? Georgia has 143,471 colored voters, the largest number s,of any of the Southern States. Mississippi comes next, with 130,178 ; then Virginia, 123,257; Souyi Carolina, 118,883; Alabama, 118,423; Louisiana, 106,977; North Carolina, 105,018 ; Tennessee, 80,250; Texas, 78,6-39; Kentucky, 53,643; Arkansas, 26,827, and Missouri, 33,042. ? Bribery at elections has been carried on to such a shameful extent in the State of New Hampshire, that to check it the last legislature passed an act providing that any voter may be challenged at the polls, and his ballot refused unless he make oath that he has neither sold his own vote nor Eurchased that of any other voter either y himself or by his money through an agent. ? The fattest man that ever lived in Ohio died recently at Mansfield, that State. His name was Norris. He weighed 445 pounds at the time of his death. His coffin Wild IlJrtUC IAJ UIUC1, auu in UIUICUOIVUO uao 6 feet 1 inch in length, 28 inches wide and 22 inches high, inside measurement. The casket was 2 inches wider than the largest hearse in the city, and his remains were drawn to the cemetery in a spring wagon. ? Fifteen years ago a stage coach coming out of Blackfoot, Idaho, was robbed of 500 pounds of gold dust. The robbers were arrested and sent to the Deer Lodge Penitentiary, but they had succeeded in burying the gold, and no one has since been able to find it. Their sentences will expire in a few weeks, and the inhabitants of the town are said to be watching the prison doors carefully to follow them to the treasure when they get out. ? A Wisconsin woman accuses her husband of trying to persuade ner to commit suicide in a manner that would enable him to collect for their children the amount of an insurance policy on her life. He argued the propriety of the project, since she was feeble and likely to require much doctoring during the rest of her natural life, thus using up money needlessly, whereas by dydying at once she could leave the family in good circumstances. ? John H. Morgan, a son of Senator Morgan, of Alabama, went boating on the Potomac river on Tuesday evening. Mrs. Delia Stella, aged forty years and a clerk in the pension office, went in the boat with him and Miss McCarthy, a niece of Mrs. Stella, went along in a canoe which she paddled herself. Going through the rapids under the Chain bridge Mr. Morgan's boat struck a hidden rock and capsized and he and Mrs. Stella were drowned. ? Says the Lewiston, Maine, Journal: In a recent Winthrop temperance meeting a gentleman made the following significant statement: "In a neighboring town 27 men banded together to oppose in every possible way the Washingtonian movement. Of these 11 filled a drunkard's grave; 7 were lost at sea; 4, while intoxicated, drove into an arm of one of the lakes in this vicinity one night and were drowned; 2 committed suicide; 2 were hanged in the South, and 1 went to sea and never was heard from." ? Seventeen years ago the death penalty for murder in the first degree was abolished by Minnesota, and life imprisonment was substituted ; but the gallows has just been re-elected. Michigan tried the same experiment, and not long since a bill was passed by the lower house of the legislature reenacting the hanging policy, although it failed of adoption in the senate. Maine did no hanging for six years and then went back to capital punishment. ? The Philadelphia Record draws a fearful picture of the condition of the coal miners of that State, whose wages are so low, and the oppressions of the companies for whom they work so great, that they are compelled to live in the shabbiest tenements and on the cheapest food they can find. There is no negro on a Southern plantation who is not better paid, and whose condition is not immeasurably better than that of these Pennsylvania miners, as it is pictured by the Record. ? Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, Democratic candidate for Governor of Virginia, opened his canvass in Accomac county last week, j Blair, Republican candidate for Attorney General, was also there and was given a hearing. Gen. Lee, in reply, said that while he would not accuse Blair of theft, his taking $17,000 from the Treasury of the State while he was legally entitled to only $2,500 was an evidence of gross carelessness, which his Democratic competitor, if elected, would not be guilty of. ? Attorney-General Garland is a plain, blunt man and has little respect for the conventionalities of life. He says that he never wore a dress coat and never will wear one. Lien. uaoeii, 01 xexas, in speaamg 01 hira, said the other day: "Mr. Cleveland will have a hard job in persuading Garland to attend swell receptions or sit for hours at a state dinner. The Attorney-General thinks too much of his own comfort to put up with'such ceremonies. He told me that one of the conditions under which he accepted his place in the Cabinet was that none of the restraints of Washington society should be placed on him." ? Gen. Crook, the great Indian fighter, is highly pleased with President Cleveland's policy and the Indian question, and the General is very emphatic in the idea that with the policy now* pursued by the President and the arrangements as now perfected by himself the last of the Indian raids in Arizona Territory had taken place. The squaws who are now prisoners at Fort Bowie and will be kept there, are the most villainous looking set that can be imagined. The General believes the final settlement of the campaign will take some time, but he firmly believes this is the last Arizona will ever witness. ? Since the present administration took charge of the Government changes have occurred in ">24 of the 2,332 first-class postoffices, and G,309 of the 48,421 fourth-class post-offices, and G,309 of the 48,421 fourthclass offices. The first-class appointments are all signed by the President, while the others bear the signature of the postmastergeneral. The greatest number of changes thus far have been made in Ohio, where the number is641. New York comes next with 598; then Indiana with 508; Virginia with 455, and Pennsylvania with 449; other States and Territories ranging down from the last figures to one single new appointment, which is the case with Utan and Alaska. !?hc forMlc #aquim. 7 a: YORKVILLE. 8. C. : THURSDAY MORNING, SEPT. 10, 1885. THE OHIO CANVASS. Governor Hoadly opened the campaign at Hamilton last Saturday by referring to recent speeches of his opponent, Judge Foreaker and Senator Sherman. lie said: "The leader of Republicans of Ohio has carefully prepared an appeal to his party and sent it Irom the stump through the press to the country. He waves the bloody shirt. He endorses the policy of alienation and hate. He seeks to transplant and cultivate in this country the feelings of the English aristocracy towards the Irish, to arouse section against section, to govern the South from the North as Dublin Castle governs Ireland, as a conquered province?and all this in the year of grace 1885, twenty years or more after the end of the war. The average life of an ordinary generation is thirty years. Owing to the casualties of war, which cost our country at least a million lives, the duration of the generation of the generation now passing away has been less than this. Twenty-nve years nave empseu since Lincoln's election. Five-sevenths, perhaps more, of the men who devised this rebellion, the men who fought its battles and the men who overcame it, have passed away. The great civil, and great military leaders, Lincoln and Grant, both sleep in graves bathed in the tears of the whole nation, South and North, for both died with words upon their lips and feelings in their hearts of charity to all, malice towards none. Seward and Sumner, Chase and Fessenden, Douglas and Stephens, Lee and Breckenridge?these are historic, not living names. Alone of the author of the rebellion Jefferson Davis survives. Boys born when the war hroke out have been voting for three years past. Boys born after the war will vote next year. Boys too young to bear arms are now mature men of 35. There is a new South and a new North. A new generation full of life is at work. A very large proportion of the people of the South have never seen a slave and have lived under no other regime but that of universal suffrage. Is it not time for Sherman and Foreaker to accept the results of the war and no longer continue in battle? Eight millions of bales of cotton, the probable crop this year, are in sight. There are no idlers in the South. Why croak in the North? White men and black men are oirloKveiMoflf wnrk. The South is rievel oping new industries, weaving cotton cloth, digging coal and iron, forging steel. God and nature, religion and the human heart, are the forces against which Sherman and Foreaker contend and Foster plots." To the policy of alienation, the speaker said the Democratic party opposed union ; for hate it substituted love. "Let us banish the unmanly fears of Southern wrong-doing," he continued and cease to exagerate occasional personal conflicts into wars of races. Danville and Copiah are worn out. Turn out some new grist, oh, grinders of the outrage mill! Home rule and as little application of the 'eternal principle of regulation' as is consistent with the greatest liberty to all will in time cure all the ills of the State and Nation. * * * Sherman is distressed because Lamar and Garland and Bayard, two of them members of the Confederate Congress and one a man who sympathized with them, are at the head of the great departments of the Government. Oh, yes, it was well to put Key at the head of the postoflice department. With one Confederate the Cabinet was all right; but two?two are a lamentable concession to treason! No, not quite this even. Akerman was a proper attorney-general, Key, a most becoming postmaster-general: but two at a time?Garland and Lamar together! Aye, there's the rub! The tears of crockadiles are free* "* i 4-:.% ly snea as onerman suuiy siugs j.u??un,ie archer would not one suffice?' Mosby, Madison, Wells, Mahone and Chalmers? the guerillas, the returning board, the repudiator and the Fort Pillow butcher?all these have had their garments washed, but Lawton and Jackson, Jonas and Lamar and Garland, the best and purest men of the South?these to our Senators are unregenerate children of political satan, unfit to serve the Republic." The speaker said he asked for re-election as an approval of the present Administration. "Now I ask for more," he continued. "I solicit approval, not forbearance. Mr. Cleveland has held office six months. Confress has not been in session, yet much has een accomplished. The spirit of reform and economy has entered all departments. Useless offices and expenses have been done away with while the performance of duty, civil and military has been enforced. The Government is not solicitous to provide soft places for pets, but to save money for the people and to keep the faith pledged in the platform.* * * It is sweet, it is delicious, brethren, to hear Republican lamentations as expressed by John Sherman, who worked the treasury department for all it was worth in 1880 to nominate himself for President, and who never recommended a Democrat for civil office in his life. That impartial non-partisan civil service of our country is in danger." The remainder of the Governor's speech was devoted to State affairs. - CROP REPORTS. The State Department of Agriculture furnishes the following report on the condition of the crops, September 1st, condensed from its township and county correspondents : Cottox.?The frequent rains and generally favorable seasons during the month of July gave the plant a vigorous and luxuriant growth. The condition on the 1st of August was reported higher than at the I same period since 18S0, and in many sec! tions of the State the prospect for a full yield had not been better in years. The weather during the last month was extremely unfavorable. A drought and high winds prevailed in every county. Many correspondents report that the shedding caused by the sudden checking of the growth of the plant has been unprecedented. It is believed in some sections that the I entire top and middle crop has been lost. Caterpillars appeared in eighteen counties j and fifty-seven correspondents report injury j to the crop by the worms. The greatest 1 damage from this cause has been in the lower counties and on the sea islands. The j application of Paris green destroyed the | worms in most cases, preventing further j depredations, but was ineffectual in localii ties, as the poison was several times washed j off by rain soon after being applied. The storm on the 24th and 25th of August was very destructive to sea island cotton, ! orifl fhn nAppocnnnflonto ncUmnt? tho 1nc? nt. , .WiV* vv Wl.W^VUUVUW v..w j fully GO per cent, of the crop. The unfavor! able weather has not affected the crop in the upper counties to such an extent as in ' the middle and lower counties of the State. The reports invariably show a decline in the condition between August 1st and September 1st, and it is possible that the injury to the crop during the last month has been overestimated, and it cannot of course be accurately known until the crop is gathered. Picking is general in all parts of the State, and some correspondents report that with seasonable weather, the crop will be harvested early. The condition is reported: Upper C'aroli' na, 91; Middle Carolina, HO; and Lower Carolina, 87. Average for the State 84, against 99 on the 1st of August. Corn.?The early corn was too far advanced to be injured by the dry weather in August. A full yield will be obtained. The late corn has suffered for lack of rain and the yield will be reduced. The condition is reported: Upper Carolina, 100; Middle Carolina, 97; and Lower Carolina, 89. Average for the State 10U. The rice crop was slightly damaged by the recent storm on the coast, but not to any appreciable extent, and the reports show that the condition of the crops is very favorable. It is reported in the Lower Counties at 95; and in the Middle and Upper Counties at 92 and 8G respec '* ely. The National Cotion Exchange, New Orleans, publishes the following under date of the 3rd instant: a ' ^ ?4- it.m/v okaut r or ino Lirsi iimu una stasun icpuno miun a deterioration in the crop prospects, but shedding has been so prevalent during the greater portion of August that excepting Virginia and Florida no State has held its former rating. Rust and worms have also done some harm. Bottom lands complain of excessive rains, and the cessation thereof would do much toward bringing these sections up. Drought has been the trouble on the uplands and throughout the greater part of Texas, but, in the latter State particularly, timely showers have fallen quite recently in many localities, and the prospects have accordingly brightened in the districts so favored. Labor as a rule is sufficient and is working well. Taken altogether the crop has met with a reverse, and favoring seasons from now on with a late freeze would go far toward compensation. For the reasons above stated the percentage has been reduced from 97 at the end of July to 91 now. Appended are the State averages: Virginia, 91; North Carolina, 90; South Carolina, 89; Georgia, 94; Florida, 02; Alabama, 94; Tennessee, 91; Arkansas, 89; Mississippi, 91; Louisiana, 90; Texas, 90; average for belt 91. a waiTof*races. The largest coal mines in the Union Pacific system are at Rock Springs, Wyoming, 250 miles west of Cheyenne. The company recently imported a large number of Chinese to take the places of white men employed. On the evening of the 2d instant the entire force of white miners, about 150 strong, organized, and arming themselves with shot guns, marChon +o Pl^ina l-otim A ffor firinor n vnllpv intn IV/ ViiiuuvvHu. a.a.* vv* 4V * v..v^ ?*>' the air, they reloaded and ordered the Chinamen to leave. The order was obeyed at once, the Chinamen fleeing to the hills, closely pursued by the miners, who fired several volleys at the fugitives with fatal effect. The Chinese quarter was then set on fire, and thirty-nine houses owned by the company were destroyed, together with their contents. The miners then visited the various mines in the camp, unearthed all the Chinamen at work therein, and bade them flee. Of the four hundred Chinamen there Wednesday morning, not one remains. All are in the hills heading for Green River, fourteen miles west of Rock Springs. Seven were killed outright by shots fired by the miners, and many were wounded. It is said that many who were feeble and helpless from disease perished in the flames. A correspondent writing from Rock Springs on Friday gives the following details of the fearful butchery of the inoffensive Mongolions: "Lying in the smouldering embers where Chinatown stood were found ten charred and shapeless human trunks sending up a noisome stench that smelled to Heaven, while another which had evidently been dragged from the ashes by hogs, was found in some brush near by. The search resul ted in the finding of the bodies of five more Chinaman killed by rifle shots while fleeing from their pursuers. All were placed in pine coffins and buried yesterday afternoon. Some six or eight others were found seriously wounded and were cared for by the railroad officials. A jury has rendered a verdict to the effect that the dead came to their deaths at the hands of parties unknown. "Reports from along the line of railroad are to the effect that Chinamen have been arriving at small stations east and wast of here, and they say that a large number of fun-it! voc were wnnndpd hv Wednes day's attack and that many have perished in the hills. It is feared that it will be found that no less than fifty lost their lives when all the returns are in. This trouble has been brewing for months. The contractors who run the mines have been importingChinamen in large numbers and discharging white men until over six hundred Celestials were in their employ. It is said that the mine bosses have favored Chinamen to the detriment of the white miners, and it needed only a spark to kindle the flame. This was furnished by a quarrel between a party of Celestials and whites in mine No. 6 over their right to work in a certain chamber. A fight ensued and the Chinamen were worsted, four of them being badlv wouned, one of whom has since died. The white miners then came out, armed themselves with fire-arms and notified the men in the other three mines to come out in the afternoon. "Meantime all was excitement in Chinatown. A flag was hoisted as a warning, and the Chinese working in different parts of the camp fled to their quarters. After dinner the saloons were closed and no liquor has since been sold. The miners gathered on the front street, about one hundred of them armed with guns revolvers, hatchets and knives and proceeded toward Chinatown. Before reaching there they sent a committee of three warning the Chinamen to leave in an hour. This they agreed to do and started to pack up, but in about half an hour the white men grew imnoHpnf. nnrl advanced uuon the Chinese quarters shouting and firing their guns into the air. Without offering resistance the Chinese fled with whatever they could snatch up. They fled to the hills about a mile ea?t of town, the miners firing at them as they fled. The miners then set fire to some of the houses and soon eight or ten of the largest houses were in flames. Half choked with fire and smoke numbers of Chinamen came rushing from the burning buildings, and with blankets and bed quilts over their heads to protect themselves from stray rifle shots they followed their brothers into the hills at the top of their speed. The laundry in town was next visited and the inoffensive inmates shot dead. All employees of the coal department of the railroad were ordered to leave town, which they did on the evening train. During the night all the Chinese houses in town, numbering nearly fifty, were burned to the ground. A number of Chinamen who were hiding fled from the burning buildings. It is rumored that the Mormon miners in camp are to be ordered out, but no action in this direction has yet been taken. The miners here are entirely unorganized in the crusade, and although a large number of them are Knights of Labor the move was not made under their direction. The mines have not been working since the riot. Business is almost entirely suspended and everything is quiet." Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM CHESTER. Chester, September 7.?B. F. Welsh made another application for bail before nTithon;r?if)n nn Inst. Tnpsdftv. The U UU^C >Y J vnv&u|^w?* v?4 ???-- ? ?. ^ . discovery of new testimony was the ground for the application. It appears that at a late hour in the afternoon of the difficulty between Welsh and Moore, the latter sent a servant to Welsh with an order for a sack of flour and a sack of meal. The counsel for the defendant claimed that their client was justified in supposing from this fact that Moore no longer entertained any un- ! kind feeling against him on account of the trouble between them in the morning and consequently that he (Welsh) was justified in addressing Moore the way he did when Moore was on his way home. Solicitor McDonald took the ground that the fact that Moore had sent to Welsh for some supplies did not justify Welsh in supposing that Moore was willing to overlook the disturbance of the morning and be friendly again. At the close of the testimony and argument the Judge announced that he would reserve his decision. The next day he announced his decision, granting the motion for bail j in a bond of $1(1,000. Wash Estes, who killed Lewis Mills, colored, on the loth of last month, while engaged in the discharge of his duty as constable of Trial Justice Leckie, applied for bail before Judge Witherspoon on last Tuesday. After hearing the grounds for bail, his Honor granted the application, on condition that the defendant gives bond to the amount of $2,000 for his appearance at the next term of the Circuit Court in this county. The defendant was represented by W. A. Safiders, Esq. A competitive examination for the vacancy from this county in the Citadel Academy will be held at this place on the 18th of this , month. Mr. "YV. H. Witherow, and Mr. S. B. Lathan will conduct the examination. The applicants for the position are preparing for the examination. Mr. R. Brandt will begin in a few days the construction of the tower from which will be suspended the town clock. The tower will be placed on top of his brick building, fronting on Main Square. The height of the tower above the parapet wall will be 35 feet; the distance from the parapet wall to the centre of the dial will be jzri. e j. . ii .1*1 ...ill u? < 1 niLeeu it;t:L ; unt: umi win uc iccu m diameter. If the weather is favorable, the tower will be completed by the 1st of October, and the clock, which has already been bought, will be placed in position as soon as this is done. This will be another evidence of the enterprise of the citizens of Chester. The camp meeting at Mount Prospect is now progressing. The attendance is good, and the preaching excellent. Rev. R. W. Sanders is conducting an interesting meeting at this place. He was assisted last week Dy Rev. Mr. Huggins, of this county, and will be assisted this week by Rev. Mr. Stout, of Society Hill. Services are held in the Baptist church every day, morning and night. Walter, the youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. E. T. Atkinson, died on Saturday night. The funeral services were held yesterday in the Baptist church, and were conducted by Rev. R. \\y Sanders, and Rev. George Summey. The large congregation present showed the sympathy of the community with the afflicted family. James, the eldest child of Mr. and MrS. R. W. Sanders, is quite sick with fever. M. THE STOCK^SHOW.

( MivR. B. Lowry has preserved in a jar of alcohol a curiosity in the way of a double-headed snake. The heads branch out from tho neck, and are perfect in form, each having a tongue and a pair of eyes. It is said to be a king snake and is about 14 inches in length. It was seen in the road about a mile from town last Friday morning by Mrs. John Miskelly, who killed it before discovering its singular formation. SALES-DAY.

The Augusta, Ga., Chronicle pays the Enquirer the following compliment which is highly appreciated: "The Yorkville, S. C., Enquirer is the most beautifully printed paper in the South. It is also one of the best weekly journals the world over." We are disposed to return in kind; which is only to reiterate what we have often said heretofore, that the Chronicle ranks among the foremost dailies in the South in point of enterprise and ability, while its principles of right are as true as the needle to the pole. TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION. An interesting meeting of the York County Teachers' Association was held in the buikUng- ? of York Institute last Saturday.

On calling the roll, all the ministerial members of the Presbytery were found to be present except Revs. Robert Lathan. I). D., D. G. Caldwell and E. E.

A new charge was formed of Bethany and King's Mountain churches, and arrangements were made for the moderation of a call for a pastor, which will be prosecuted at Beth- t any on Monday next.

M. j [vy & Co., of Hock Ilill, make an assignment. I The tirm in fact is composed of Mr. Ivy alone, I lie other member being a salaried partner, which irrangement was adopted merely to facilitate the ransaetion of business. The liabilities of tho irm, as per schedule, amount to $217,135.77. The schedule of assets amount, in personal property, ;o $80,000, including three-fourths interest in the mercantile business of Ivy A Fewell. Besides ;he assets consisting of personal property there ?re several tracts of valuable land in York, Lancaster and Sumter counties, nearly all of which ire under mortgage to Williams, Black A Co., af New York, who hold the bulk of the claims, amounting to about $195,000. Mr. Francis W. Williams, of that tirm, is named as the assignee. We record this suspension with regret. Col. [vy has long been prominent as one of the most enterprising citizens in Upper Carolina, and we feel sure had he retained his health these misfortunes would never have overtaken him. In this calamity, while he is prostrated on a bed of sickness, he has the sympathy of the entire people, and the hopo is entertained by many that if his life is spared he will yet overcome the difficulties surrounding him. His home indebtedness is comparatively small, and the assignment will affect no other business houses in Rock Hill, while, as we learn, the house of Ivy k Fewell will continue as heretofore. Correspondence of the Y'orkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM ROCK HILL. Hock Hill, S. C., September 7.?The stock show held at this place on last Tuesday was a grand success both in regard to Hiq nnmhar r>f ovhihit? and the attendance. The display of Jersey cattle would have clone justice to any agricultural fair. A meeting of a number of persons interested in agriculture and improved stock was held in the Rock Hill Library building on Saturday. A joint stock company was formed with a capital not to exceed $5,000. The shares are valued at $5 each, and a person wishing to become a member of the Association is required to be a share-holder. The organization is to be known as the Rock Hill Agricultural and Stock Association. Major A. H. White was elected President, and W. J. Roddey, Secretary. This is a move in the right direction, and in the Fall of 18SG Rock Hill will have a fair. William J. Capps, of Fort Mill township, was before U. S. Commissioner C. J. Pride, on Friday, charged with retailing liquor without license. The evidence was such that the Commissioner placed him under a bond of $200 to appear at the next term of the U. S. District Court at Greenville. Abraham Home and George Coleman, both colored, were charged with the same offence, and in default of bail were sent to York county jail. A colored woman who lived on the plantation of Mr. D. T. Lessly, was adjudged a lunatic, and on Wednesday last was sent to the asylum at Columbia. She lost her reason through religious excitement. Henry Berry, colored, who has been in charge of Dr. W. B. FewelTs gin at this place, had the misfortune of having his hand caught in the saws of the gin and badly cut. Drs. T. M. DuBose and J. W. Fewell were called in and found it necessary to amputate the hand, which they did very successfully just at the wrist. Henry is a minister of the gospel, and he was very anxious to know from his physicians if the loss of his hand would prevent him from preaching. Mr. Elijah Jackson died very suddenly last week near "Pride's Old Mill," five miles from this place, and was buried near Hickory Grove. Foul play being suspected, his body was to have been exhumed yes-,.' terday and an investigation made by Mr. G. C. Leech, Trial Justice, acting as Coroner. Dr. Thomas J. Orr, who attended him, says he died from inflammation of the bowels, caused by jaundice and fever. Communion services were held at Ebenezer Church on Sunday, conducted by the pastor, Rev. J. H. Thorn well. Thprp was a Union Sundav-school held in St. John's M. E. CJaurch in'this place yesterday afternoon. Addresses were made to the children by Rev. J. B. Traywick and Col. J. J. Waters. A protracted meeting is being held in the same church. The pastor is assisted by Rev. J. A. Wannamaker, of Chester. The firm of J. M. Ivy & Co., of this place, is going out of business. Mr. F. W. Williams, of Williams, Black & Co., of New York, will liquidate the business of the firm. The continued bad health of Col. J. M. Ivy, who composed the firm, made it necessary that he should retire from active business. We regret to see such an enterprising firm go out of business. Its loss is a great blow to the business interests of Rock Hill. Hal. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. ? Rock Hill Herald: The cotton receipts at Rock Hill for the year ending August 31st were 11,972 bales. ? A dog fell into a well in Spartanburg, and a rope with a slip noose being lowered to catch around him, the animal seized it with his teeth and was hauled up safely. ?

September 10 .'17 -It Tribute of Respect. At a meeting of the Session of the Yorkville Jresbyterian Church, held on the 1st instant, the "ollowing memorial paper was adopted : In the death of James Mason, God in his provlenee has taken from this Chinch one of its [tilling Elders, from the community an estimate and beloved citizen, and from his family a levoted husband and father. In all these rela ions of life he lmd lived so nearly np to the full neasure of duty, and in his public and private jxample had exhibited so few of the frailties ;ommon to our nature, that few men were more iniversally respected or beloved. Possessing a character of great firmness he was withal modest ,n maintaining his convictions; and few men ocjupving his station in life, had less vanity for relown, or for hearing praises sounded to his own name. At all times kind and charitable, few ever had opportunity to observe these virtues, except ;hose who were the recipients of his kindly deeds, ir who lived in such close contact with him, as to understand his noble and generous heart. His life was an arduous and useful one, but in its most engaging duties it was at all times the life of the follower of Christ. He lived up to his profession as nearly as it is the lot of most men to live. The last few months of his life were attended with suffering, but the patience, cheerfulness and resignation with which these were borne fully exemplified the security of his trust in a Father's love. As a fitting expression of the sense of its bereavement, the session of this chiirch resolves: 1st. That in the death of James Mason, this church is deprived of a faithful officer and member, whose place in its councils and work is not easilv filled. 2nd. That a blank page in our minutes be inscribed to his memory. 3rd. That a copy of this memorial be sent to the family of the deceased, and that the same be published in the YoRKVir.r.e Enquirer. J. K.
