NewK of the Week as Chronicled liy a Wide-Awake and Observant Correspondent. Correspondence of the Yorkvillc Enquirer. Blacksburg, January 2.?With its accustomed spirit of enterprise and accommodation, The Enquirer last week gave its ^ numerous readers another evidence of its liberality and progressiveneu. and I take this opportunity to wish it another year of deserved- success and prosperity. Delightful weather prevailed during the Christmas tide, and, with the exception of two sad occurrences, the feeling of "pence and good will" pervaaeu iue minus mm hearts of out people, anil enabled them to > enjoy the holidays in a quiet but thoroughly happy manner. On Sunday morning about daylight, the 24th ultimo, Charles Harper was cut and stabbed through the left lung.and heart, by Robert Champion, and, from the effects of the wound, died on the 2Sth at 11.30 o'clock a. m. The unfortunate young roau was a skillful brickmason, and was employed by the Carolina Reduction company in the erection * of their plant at this place. He had ob tained board with Champion, who lives at the corner of Carolina and Shelby streets, in the Williams building. On Saturday night, he procured a bottle of whisky at the dispensary, and after drinking as much as he wanted, gave the bottle to Champion with a request to take care of it for him until morning. When he called for it in the morning, Champion either denied having it, Or refused to give it to him, whereupon a quarrel followed, with the fatal result, as stated above. Champion endeavored to make his escape, but was captured and placed in our guard house, to await the issue of his rash deed, and, upon the death of his victim, was promptly committed to the county jail. Both men had only recently come to our town. Champion, who has a small family, came from Cleveland county, N. C., about two months ago, and kept a beef market here. Harper was a sojourner of only a week or two, and would never give any ? definite information as to his family or antecedents. As he believed, up to the hour of his death, that he would recover, his ante mortem statement of the affair was not taken,-and he would_ not allow his father, who he said lives in Nebraska, to be notified of his condition. He was buried on Friday, in the cemetery near the Baptist church. * Several petty thefls have been committed ^ recently in our town, among them the taking of about two bushels of corn from Mr. Ira Hardin's mill, and a five dollar note from the house of Moses Jennings, colored. Upon going lo bed, thelatter's wife had placed the money in her shoe for safe keeping, and when she went to dou the useful article next morning, and looked for her treasure, it was ? missing. As yet the thieves have not been discovered. The Carolina Reduction company are prosecuting the work for their extensive plant with an energy aud vim that adds much to the life and busiuess of our town. Mr. Chas. Kingley is the chief engineer; Mr. J. \V. Rhyne has charge of the grading force of twenty or thirty hands; Mr. J. J. Whisonant has the contract for the woodwork. There are also four or five masons constant? ly employed in laying the foundations, and Mr. P. T. Lemaster, of Spartanburg, superintends the erection of the buildings. Already a four room cottage, which will be used as an office, is nearly completed, and in course of construction is another building which covers a space of 30 by 92 feet of ground, and when finished will form a part of the reduction works. It is divided into four apartments by frame partition walls. " The work is all done with good materials and in a most substantial manner. Cherokee Inn continues to be a favorite resort of visitors from a colder clime than ours. Among recent arrivals at this deservedly popular house, are Mrs. A. Tripp and her sister, Mrs. Armstrong, from Pittsburg, Pa. ; Mrs Deau, Mrs. Jones, and Dr. Jarvis, of Claremont N. II.; and H. M. Felkes and Ik C. Lauth, of Philadelphia. * Rev. J. A.

Carson, Esq., one of Spartanburg's, prominent and successful lawyers, was the guest of Dr. W. Anderson on Saturday and Sunday last. The old and almost obsolete custom of 4 having a "watch night" meeting on the last night of the year for religious services and meditation, was observed at the Methodist church, the Rev. L. A. Johnson, pastor. The exercises were very interesting and itnpressive, and at their close, the "silent prayer" and the tolling of the "church bell sad ami slow," announced the death of the old Mr. J. A. McClill, who lives on King's Creek, amd is well known as a successful I farmer and clever citizen, rescntly killed [ two hogs twenty months old which netted 749 pounds. One weighed 3G3, the other 3S<?. The looms and other machinery for Cherokee Falls Cotton Mills are being received and placed in the mill. X. W.

I'.ljOObSllKI) IN SI'AKTANIll R(i. i An Attempt In Arrest a Violator of tile Dispensary I.aiv Attended Willi Serious Cnnseipieiiees. A bloody tiagedy grew out of an attempt on the part of certain State constables to en- \ force the dispensary law in Spartanburg last j Wetlnestlay night. Henry Palmer, :i well I known mulatto of the city, had recently be-; come notorious as a vender of contraband j liquors, and his home in "Hamburg" was | generally considered as a regular barroom. Armed with a warrant sworn out before a i trial justice, Stale Constables Jackson. Pear son and Playton, went to the house of Palm-! j or, about S o'clock Wednesday night, fori the purpose of taking him in custody. On! reaching the house, the constables knocked! | at the door and commanded the inmates to open it. Palmer came out and asked : what, was wanted. The constables said that they had come to an est him for selling liquor, and told him to consider him-. self under aj rist. Palmer jerked back as if j attempting to draw a pistol, and just til that ! moment his wife appeared at the door with ju double-barrel shot gun, both hammers -j cocked, ready to shoot. One of the consta- j hies grabbed the gun and another grabbed ! Palmer. While Palmer and the constable I wore seullling, somebody, it is not certainly j known who, lired a shot and struck Constable Hlayton. At the same moment Palmer j broke loose and started to run, hut had only : [gone a tew steps, when Constable Clayton shot him through the temple and he fell! dead. The Negro was left lying in the road until j the coroner appeared to hold an inquest, and the constables surrendered themselves to the [sheriff. The whole affair caused intense excitement throughout the city, especially; |among the Negroes, who made threats of lynching the constables. Clayton was shot in the breast with a load of small shot fired from a shot gun or a pisi tol, it is not certainly known which. Some of the shot entered the cavity, and it is be! lieved he will die. The jury which held the inquest over the body of Calmer, returned the following vcrj diet : "We, the undersigned jurors in the finding and inquiring into the death of Hen-1 ry Calmer, find that the said Henry Calmer came to his death by gun shot wounds being i inflicted by John Clayton, State constable, j I on the night of December -7, ISiKi, and that the said Calmer was at the time resisting: arrest." On Thursday night. about 1U o'clock, while State Constable Davis was on his way to his hoarding house, he was attacked by a litany of Negroes, severely beaten, and made 1 to promise that he would resign his position with the dispensary and go hack to his farm. The Negroes were no doubt incited to commit this act of outlawry through e.\! citemcnt caused by the killing of Palmer. Tin* llmly li:e? llcen I'iiiiikI. ? The body of Miss Mary P. Yeargin. who was drowned in Cayuga lake, near Ithaca, N. Y.. was washed ashore on Monday of last week and thoroughly identified by a coroner's jury. Miss Yeargin, who was at Cor j m*l 1 university, from Laurens county, it will ( he remembered. went out for a boat ride with her instructor, Mr. Merriani. As they failed to return, it was concluded that they were drowned, though a long search after their bodies was unsuccessful. Miss Yeargin's life was insured lor $1,000, and as a report had been circulated that she had been seen in New York with Mr. Mcrriam, after the supposed boat ride, the insurance company refused to pay the money until the fact of her death had been fully established. Mr. Merriam's body has not yet been recovered. A watch found in Miss Ycargin's pocket indicated that the accident occurred at 4.OS o'clock. Miss Ycargin's body has been returned to Laurens, where the funeral was conducted on last Sunday. IiKTTBK FKoVTxiON COINTY. C'hri.stiiiHS Week Ouict -Sliort Crops ami l.ow rnws-AiIiIitss l?y Air.

Not the usual amount of whiskydrinking and frolicking sis heretofore. W'e have 110 "blind tigers'' in our community that have inside their appearance during the holiday season. The colored people have had a lew festivals sit which si few lights and other evidences of outlawry showed themselves. Our people have inside short crops, which, with the low prices, leave a balance to carry over into and burden next year with debts due now. This is always the case more or less.

It was not the writer's good fortune to be present and hear him, being detained on account of sickness?yet those who did hear him, said the address was a masterly effort and sent conviction to every heart that bad been remiss in its duties heretofore. The appearance of the comet on the morning of the. 20th instant, caused quite a sensation among a certain class of people, and some wild theories have been advanced by diilerent individuals. Some made the tail to represent different, letters, and one or two put them together and they made the "New World," plainly?to the eyes of those who witnessed the phenomenon.

Its happenings and doing and the conditions that existed in it become subjects of discussion and dispute, and are settled definitely only by reference to newspaper tiles, the depository of scrap history, or to some other reliable record. Thus time Hies, goes like a rocket, ami with it go men and memories and faces and places and sorrows that seemed insupportable, and joys that we hoped would never lade. All gone, rolled up in the Meeting years and well nigh forgotten. Let us take a retrospective glance at the old year before she rolls oll'of the precipice and gets mixed up with the dead centuries. Wo feel that personally we have much to be thankful for. Wo have survived thus far, and hope that we and all our friends, and enemies, if have any, will live to see its linal dissolution. Our business has been much hcttcrthun weexpected. < >ur old customers and friends, and the new ones also, have stood by us and have been faithful to their obligations. No business man can boast of a set of patrons better in ipialily than we have, and we are proud of them and thankful for their favors, and in the future will do all things for them that is right, liberal and holiest. In looking back over IN!'.'!, we see much to encourage us in entering on the duties of the new year. The purse strings of the money lenders of'!K5 were never tied so tight ; the panic that we passed through is unparalleled in the history of the country. We never witnessed fiercer political contests, we never saw the time before when it took two pounds of cotton to buy one pound ot green bacon.

At the beginning of the old year many of us cherished fond hopes that it would give us peace and plenty, but those hopes were not realized. The outlook today is not so bright as that of a year ago. We shall have to accept the situation as it is, and make the best of it. In this connection wo desire to say that we expect to continue business at the old stand, and in the old way, viz.: To furnish our customers and friends with the very best merchandise in our line and to sell at prices that Mill cause would-be competitors to realize more fully than ever before that mc head the procession when it comes to giving full value to the people for their hard-earned dollars. We sincerely deplore the low price of cotton and the consequent financial stringency, and earnestly hope for better times in the near future. We hope that early in the present year the "good times" for which wo have been looking so long will break upon us and we shall Mitness an era of prosperity such as the present outlook does not indicate. We hope to serve all our old friends and customers during 1SJM and to add many ijcmones to our already long list. Test our claims to sell better and cheaper goods than anybody else. If you do, you m ill be glad you did it. In conclusion, mc desire to thank our friends for their very liberal patronage during IfWl, and especially those who hold our receipt for the full amount of their accounts. J. 11.

At a time when I bought the child could not live twenty-four lours, directions for making the remedy were riven to inc. I tried it on the child, giving the litters and applying the Wash. In twenty-four lours I could see a change for the better, and in liroe weeks the child was entirely cured and lever had a return of the disease. I recognized n the remedy a specific whose power for good vas unlimited, though it was impossible that I should then know it was good for anything else ban scrofula; so whenever and wherever I ould hear of anyone similarly afllicted, I would send them some of the medicine, being deteriiineil to fully test its merits before throwing it >n the market. I made a perfect and permanent lire on every ease I ever tried it on. A tiervan Is, various persons began to write to me for t, and I was compelled to keep a few bottles?a lo/en or two?on hand, ready for'calls. In that ,vay my enterprise was started. Not only did lie sales rapidly increase, hut as the remedy ,v:is introduced. I found its area of usefulness ould lie largely extended. Kvory one who ised it pronounced it the FINKSTTONIU they ver used ; as an A LTKRAT1 YE, it is unequaf d, and as a IH HLI'IKU OK TIIK BLOOD it s endorsed by all who have used it.

It will regulate the bowels, tnd by its action as an alterative, cure chronic onstipation or dysentery. I have found it infallible in cases of scrofula. For ulceiation of he womb it is excellent, when used with the nash also. I have known it to cure a great nany cases of irregularity, painful or suppressed nctistruation, and to ladies passing through the 'change of life," I cannot recommend it too lighlv.
