; , State against Mose Dunham, charged with murder. The State was represented by Solicitor Hough and the defendant hy \V. B. Wilson, Esq. The facts in the case were as follows : On the 12th of last August, several Negroes, including Mose Dunham, the defendant, and Joseph McCauley, the deceased, were returning from a baseball game near Catawba Junction. The Negroes got up a wrestling match. McCauley gave his revolver?four # chambers of which were loaded and one was empty?to Phil Mitchell to hold, and engaged in a wrestle with Mose Dunham. Will Barber got possession of the revolver and commenced snapping it on the empty chamber. The deceased next wrestled with Adam Wilson. In the meantime, Mose Dunham got hold of the revolver and continued to snap it as Will Barber had been doing, at different members of the party. Finally, Joseph McCauley asked Dunham for the pistol. Dunham replied, "Damn you, I will shoot you too," and pulled the trigger. The pistol fired, and McCauley was severely wounded. Realizing what he had done, Dunham became very much alarmed and began to cry. He assisted McCauley home and protested that the shooting was accidental. Dunham was indicted for assault and battery with intent to kill at the last term of the court, but on the 25th of December last McCauley died from the effects of the wound, and the indictment was chauged to murder. The defense did not put up any testimony in answer to the ease made out by the State. The jury remained out about fifteen minutes and returned with a verdict of guilty of manslaughter. In view of all the circumstances, his honor fixed the sentence as'light as the law allows?two years at hard labor in the State penitentiary. The next case taken up was that of the State agaiust Gib Erwin, alias Gib Garrison, colored, charged with the murder of Charles Miller, also colored, in Yorkville, on the 18th day of last February. Solicitor Hough and Thos. F. McDow, Esq., appeared for the State, and Senator Finley appeared for the defense. The killiug occurred on Sunday evening about dusk. Erwin, Miller and several other'Negroes had been in the "Carolina Club" hall all the afternoon, drinking whisky and playing cards. As they went out of the hall to the street, they had to pass through a crack in a fence. As each mau passed through the crack, Miller tapped him with a lath. Erwin resented the blow and told Miller not to strike him again. Miller struck again, and Erwin, as he sat in the crack of the fence, drew his pistol and fired. The ball struck Miller in the abdomen and produced death in a few moments. The defendant, through his counsel, admitted that the deed was done in sudden heat of passion and offered to plead guilty of manslaughter. The State, however, claimed that the defendant was guilty of murder and refused to accept the plea. The case accordingly went to trial Monday afternoon, and was not concluded until late yesterday afternoon. The jury retired at 4 o'clock and up to the hour The Enquirer went to press had not rendered a verdict. The last case taken up yesterday afternoon, was that of the State vs. Edward A. Smith, charged bj/Mr. W. C. Wherry with assault and battery with intent to kill. At the time The Enquirer went to press the case had not been concluded. Notice having been given of a motion for a new trial in the case of Jeff Crawford, convicted of murder, argument will probably be heard sometime this morning. ROCK HILL HAPPENINGS. "iwuuw B} im xnfB u<lSoorB6yi=tin( r ire ui r orr Mill?Wants to Entertain Synod?The Circus a Small Affair?Other Matters. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Rock Hill, April 10.?On last Friday night there was a public debate by the students of the Presbyterian High school, in the school building, on the query, "Resolved, ^'' " k af loM/tiMnnM into t Lie OAtin_ I 1 IlUt CIIJl^JUllUU Ul lUIClgucio *Uiw uuo WMUtry be restricted?" The affirmative was represented by Messrs. George Witherspoon and John B. Meacbam; while the negative side was argued by Messrs. T. Frauk Hayne and Will G. Berry. The young men spoke well and warmly. The affirmative gained the question?a plume in their caps?as public sympathy is on the other side. During December, 11,202 immigrants were lauded ut Ellis Island, X. Y. Of these, 3,000 were unable to read or write, and more than half were without means of support. These people, largely the ofi'-scourings of Europe, are dumped down on us largely to make anarchists and patrons of the free soup houses in the cities. It is a constant thing. Yes ; emigration should be restricted. A telegram from Fort Mill advises us that that town had a destructive lire last night. Seven stores were burning, and two dwellings. Also the cotton oil the platform. As the north-bound vestibule passed there, at 3i o'clock, it was sprinkled with burning shin-! gles from neighboring houses. The lire! caught from an empty house, in which it \ was discovered after midnight. It is thought1 to be the work of an incendiary. The First Presbyterian church is making ; overtures for the next meeting of the synod. j This is one of the strongest churches in membership and ability in this section of country, and in its handsome new building, it will be capitally well prepared to entertain the synod. The church now has five young men who are preparing themselves to preach: Messrs. W. Hope Whyte, T. H. Spence, F. H. Wardlaw, T. F. Hauey and J. C. Mcacham. The circus came Wednesday and brought the usual crowd into town. The day was rainy and prevented the street parade, which i was a disappointment to many. It is said j to have been a smaller, but less objectionable concern than the ordinary. Some few were "taken in" by sharpers, who did their rascality in changing money, but no heavy loss is reported. Only 400 are reported to have attended the day performance. The circus j was not taxed here. At the Industrial school, the brick work progresses. The framing is being put in as the work goes up. A corner is beiug left for the ceremony of laying the corner stone next month. At the Baptist church, the brick work is] going on. It is thought the building will be ready for occupancy by June. The ladies of the Baptist church will give a hot supper on next Friday night, to aid their undertaking of putting a handsome memorial window in the new church, in memory of Mr. W. M. Frew, whose liberal bequest largely aids the building enterprise. Come out and help the ladies. There will be 110 preaching at the Baptist1 church 011 next Sunday. The pastor expects! to be in Yorkville. * There is a unique and antiquated clock at. J.B.Johnson's drugstore, of the ultra old! fashion. It is eight feet tall, ami though 1200 ; years old, measures oil' the minutes, hours and days still. It was formerly the property of Mr. Jas. Young, over the Catawba river.! Mr. J. Steele Boyd and family, of the Blackjack section, left on last Wednesday for Texas. Mr. Boyd is a young man and a good, law abiding citizen. The Lone Star State is getting too many of our good citi-j zeiis. We would like to call a halt. V. I. M. LETTER FROM INION I'OfXTV. KITvet of the Front?Farmer* up Willi their Work Oilier Mutters. Correspondence of the Yorkville Knqtiiivr. Ktta Jank, April 7.?I have had so much ! Darlington-constable-dispensary news for the last week that 1 hardly know how to begin a news-letter on other matters. The late frost and freeze, together with 1 the present dry spell, is trying on vegetation. The fruit crop, even blackberries, will be a failure. A few cherries and peas have bloomed out in the last few days and may materialize yet. Farmers are about up with their work until they get rain. A good deal of corn has been planted, and some are ready to begin with their cotton seed ; but the past few days have warned them not to be in too much of j a hurry for fear that they may have to, plant over. Wheat and oats are suHcring! | for rain. The freeze lias killed out the oats | in many places, or at least made the stand a very poor and thin one. One of our neighbors. Mr. li. J. Kirby, I has a child bad off with scarlet fever. Other| wise, our people are enjoying good health.

I Sharon, April 9.?It looks this morning as if the much needed rain is near at hand. For want of a good rain, farm work is very greatly retarded. Mr. M. M. Ross, of Charlotte, N. C., has been on a visit to relatives here since Saturday. He will return to Charlotte today. Miss Mary Shaw, of Rome, On., is visiting friends and relatives here. Mrs. Rebecca Save is visiting her son, Dr. J. H. Saye. There is some talk of getting up a military company here. We do not know with what success the proposition is meeting.

Betts is to preach there 011 the4th Sunday of this month. Quite a number of our citizens have been and are in attendance 011 court. A. K. LETTER FROM HICKORY UKOYE. I>eath of an Aged Citizen?Mr. Yongue Against Tobaceo?Attacked by a Negro?Other Notes. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Hickory Grove, April 10.?Rev. J. P. Knox and Rev. J. H. Simpson attended presbytery at Charlotte last week. Mr. Josiah Sprouse died at this place last Wednesday, aged ui years. Jie nau ueeii married for 58 years. For many years he has been in destitute circumstances. At the time of his death, he had long been a consistent member of the Baptist church. Itev. R. A. Yongue is preaching against the use of tobacco, and as the result of his able sermons, many confirmed tobacco chewers and smokers have resolved to quit the filthy habit. Miss Julia Taylor, the accomplished milliner of Messrs. Whisonant & Castles, has returned. Miss Taylor has made a host of friends in this locality, and all are very glad of her return. Two of our most respected ladies were recently attacked on the road by a burly Negro. They saved themselves only by whipping up their horse. The same scoundrel was committed to jail last Thursday by Trial Justice Leech on the charge of house breaking and larceny. Mr. M. G. Broom has been quite ill for several days. m. McCOXNELLSVILLE MATTERS. Iiljurlng the AVlieat and Oats?Personal and Other Notes of Neighborhood Interest. Correspondence of The Yorkville Enquirer. McConnellsville, April i).?The cold wave that has just passed has injured the wheat and oat crops in this section seriously. It has also killed the fruiUand garden plants. Rev. W. S. Hamiter will conduct a meeting at Oilivet on the first Sabbath in May, commencing the Friday night before. Miss Janie McConnell, who has been teaching at the Bethesda High school, has returned home for a vacation.

Pleased With the Conviction of Jeff Crawford? Not in a Hurry to Commence Planting?'The Water Works a Novelty. Correspondence c>f the Yorkville Enquirer. Warren's, April 9.?The "Blackjacks" people are well pleased at the verdict of the jury in the Jeff Crawford murder case. The citizens of this community have been anxiously awaiting his trial, and turned out enniasse this week to hear it. The State had a more complete chain of circumstantial evidence than even those most interested in the case imagined. We are needing rain badly. Ground that has not been stirred lately is baked so hard as to make plowing a matter of impossibility. Our farmers seem to be in no hurry about planting. They are, I suppose, afraid that the cold wave has not entirely passed. It is impossible to predict now, what the small grain crop will be. The cold snap hurt wheat and oats in the "Blackjacks" far worse than it did on the ridges. It seems to have been more forward. The water works of Yorkville seem to have been a matter of great wonder to some of those attending court last week. N. (MI LD NOTES. Wheat ami Oats not Necessarily Hurt?Condition of the Other Crops. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Got'i.o, April 9.?Yesterday was warm and springlike, but today is cool, with the wind blowing from the north. Such sudden changes are likely to cause more sickness, of which there seems to be plenty at the present time. Among the sick are Mrs. J. 15. Swann and Mr. Joseph Dowdlc. Both are very ill. The wheat and oats crops were slightly stunted by the recent cold weather, but a good warm rain would revive both, and a fair crop might be expected yet. The corn crop, especially on the uplands, is nearly all planted. Cotton land generally has been ridged up and the fertilizers put in. Farmers will be ready for planting next week. There will be little or no decrease in the cotton acreage this year. Fruit will he a complete failure, probably with the exception of apples that have recently bloomed. The second Sabbath in May has been set for the sacramental meeting at Bullock's Creek. u. FORT MILL MATTERS. Information About tin- Weather?l'ersolial Mutters?Tin Town is Visited by it $5,000 Fire.

M'IMIE SUl'Tll CAROLINA NKWS. Wanted to Kill Mowry. ? In effecting u re-organization of tlie Charleston postolliee, Postmaster Mowry ! discharged a clerk by the name of T. 1. Snowden. Snowden did not like it, and swore vengeance against the postmaster. Last Wednesday he stationed himself near ! the entrance to the otlice with the avowed | intention of murdering Mr. Mowry. Mr. Mowry was informed of the matter and left the building by another door. He then went for a policeman and had Snowden arI rested. : Aged One Hundred and Twenty-Nine. ? News and Courier, April (i: Pronauty the oldest colored woman in South Carolina? Jane Jackson?died at her home in Cowalley yesterday at the age 120 years. She was Charleston born, a slave of the Wragg and Mitchell families, and her relatives claim j that they have good authority for believing that she had attained so extraordinary an age. Up to a few months ago, she would take long walks, and she retained her faculties up to last month. Her funeral is to he attended by numerous great grandchildren. DiKiirining tin* Fourth. ? J. Clary Watts, assistant-adjutant general, went to Charleston last Friday with instructions to disarm the companies of the Fourth regiment, which recently refused to go to Darlington under Governor Tillman's orders. General Huegenin, the officer commanding, immediately issued orders to the soldiers to give up their arms at once, but it does not follow that these companies of the Fourth regiment will be disbanded. All of these companies are very wealthy, and have quite a quantity of arms as private property.! It is likely that they will arrange to continue their respective organizations. Sn<l Sulehlo. ? Miss Marietta Petty, a respected young lady, formerly of Spartanburg, committed suicide at McAdensville, N. C., last Thursday, by jumping into the river. The young lady was to have been married Thursday night to Mr. C. P. Heflher, a young man of excellent habits and highly respected as a good citizen. Before committing the rash act. Miss Petty wrote a note to Mr. Heffhcr, and told him that because of her poor health, she was afraid she would he a burden rather limn help to him. The note, however, was hidden in the young lady's trunk, and was not found until after her death. There is every reason to believe that the deed had been contemplated for at least a week before its execution. He Was Desperate. ? Elbert Heed, a young Negro man, waylaid his wife and mother-in-law near Montmorenei, Aikeii county, last Thursday, killed his mother-in-law and seriously wounded his wife. He then made his escape. Later, he was followed by several posses, and finally overtaken. He fought desperately and wounded a number of the posse. He was himself shot in the side with a load of small shot. Finally he was captured, whereupon he attempted to kill himself. He placed his pistol to his head and pulled the trigger. The ball entered the ear and ranged downward, but did not produce instant death. Reed was then taken to Aiken and committed to jail. His recovery is improbable. He claims that his wife had been persuaded to leave him by his mother-in-law, and for that reason he wanted to kill them both. Cause,! Il.v Dispensary Liquor. ? I)r. J. IL Payne shot and killed Henry Green, in Darlington, last Wednesday. Dr. Payne is a Tenneseean, and had been in Darlington for some time selling the l ight to put up a patent fence. Green was a cook at one of the hotels. During the troubles of a few days before, the governor had issued orders for the closing of the dispensary. Green told some one that he had seen Dr. Payne and the dispensary clerk coming out of the building with liquor, and the matter was about to be investigated. Payne hunted Green up, and after some words, the lie was passed, whereupon Payne stuck his pistol to Green's heart and fired. Green fell dead. The murder created considerable excitement for a time. Payne promptly gave himself up and is now in jail. imperial Jlotirts. KUYKENDAI/S SPECIALS. Cardinal Wolsey exulted in his day. Thought his "greatness was a ripening."

It was a great day at ! the Bazaar?almost an ovation?and one that will long be remembered by j all who had the good fortune to witness it. Large was the number of orders left fr.oni its effects, andthe flood tide continues to swell. Let every lady remember that Miss i WEBB will devote Friday of each week in displaying the latest fads and novelties in headgear, and that they , are cordially invited to call. 1 Our dress goods have arrived. j MISS SIIIEES, I ( Who is still at Tlio Bazaar, needs no introduction at our hands, will devote two hours, one day in each week, showing and expatiating on the latest designs in the whirl of fashionable i dress, on which no one can doubt her ability. .

WHILE the past ten days could not be truth-! fully called ideal "straw hat weather," still j wo are sure that before this terrestial ball has' made a great many more revolutions?we can't I say positively how many?the lovely spring time will bo upon us in all its glory. In antiei-1 pation of its coming we ordered a lull line of j Straw Hats several weeks ago. They have been received, and you just ought to see them. Wei are confident that no other dealer in the county i lias or will have a stock to compare with ours j in style, variety or price. We invite our friends to gaze on these hats, and we would suggest that those who expect to invest would do well to do j their gazing without delay, because if they defer j the matter too long, "some other fellow may get I the very one you wanted." Remember, these ] goods are neither old style or shop worn. ABOUT SHOES. Purchasers of shoes are perhaps deceived oftener than buyers of any other kind of goods. | This is not strange, and the reason is not far to seek. It is simply because it is almost impossible to tell what Kind of material a shoe is made out of by simply looking at it, and it is often the ease that footgear that has every appearance outwardly of being everything it is represented to be, has soles made of scraps of leather with | a paper insole and inferior uppers. Of course such a shoe is not cheap at any price. The picture is not an imaginary one. Now we don't claim to handle the only honest goods sold in j this market, but we do assert most emphatically j that OURS ARK HONEST; and further, that I they are backed by a fair and square, common- j sense guarantee. We have recently received a { new stock of tine Shoes for ladies and gentlemen and invite those who want lull value for their money to call and examine our Shoes. KENNEDY PROS. A RARRON. MRS.
