We give below a notice of tho death of the gentleman whose name heads this arti cle, which we copy from the Kusbvillc Jack sonian, of Indiana. In addition to thc facti stated in the obituary notice, we may men tion as matters of interest to our people inst Mr. Smith married Miss Elizabeth Brown in 1817, a daughter of Mr. John Brown, who at that time lived upon the hill at Pre cost's Mill. Previous to his removal to indiana, he founded a chapel for thc worship of God in this County, which is situated some seven miles southwest of Anderson, and bears the name of Smith Chapel, in honor to its founder, whose death wc now announce. He left three brothers in this ec-nutry, one of whom, Mr. Benjnmin Smith, resided in Abbeville County, and the other two, Messrs. Samuel and Robert Smith, resided in this County. Rev. George Smith left a large circle of relatives und connections, besides very many friends in this country, who will regret his death, although he bas lived beyond the allotted years of man. The Jacksonian says : The subject of this Bketch was born in Ab beville District, In thc State of South Curo lina, May 13, 1794, and was married in the sume Stale, July 15, 1810 Ho was one of the early settlers of Ruali county, having mored to this State end county in thc year 1832, Fettling in Union township, where he resided until thc year 1864; when bo re moved to Fayette county where be resided until the 25th day of October, 1876, nt which time he was calico from labor to rest nt the ripe old age of 82 years, 5 months and 2 days. He was a local preacher of the Methodist church for 48 years prior to his death, al ways taking a deep interest in all affairs of tho church, especially in her missions and charities, all of which received substantial aid and support from his purse. His life waa unostcntntious. but his memory will lon? be cherished by all his old neighbors aha more especially by the members of thc church to which he belonged. Ho was buried in the church yard at w Hoy Chanel. October 26th, 187(1. Funeral services conducted by the Rev. Jesse Miller, of Glenwood. Thc deceased leaves a widow 80 years of ?ge with whom he had lived happily for over 60 years. Ebenere. Smith of Union township, was his youngest brother. His widowed wife, his brother and family, and his large circle of friends, though they feel gad at parting with their long lived mend and companion, "mourn not ns those without hope, believing that in crossing the Jordan of death he was translated from mis imperfect to that all perfect colestial world beyond thc skies. - Thc Hayes emblem during thccnni pagn was a pitchfork.

FATAL SZlCOTaKU AFFRAY. Wo give below the accountii and rom. menta of the Columbia Register and Union-Herald relative to the fatal shoot ing affray in which Senator Cochran wu? cagsged. Mr. Cochran woo bailed in the sue of $-1000 to appear for trial at tho next term of Court in Columbia. We shall inuke no comment upon this unfor tunate /!iln,.iitt ,. to .... ?I... -- -"-j-.... ""j t""v re gret its occurrence. Our readers can gain all the information we have concern ing it from the following articles taken from Columbia papers : ?HE BJKlISTEtt'ti STATEMENTS. Mr. Thomas Desit, son of the Sheriff of | this county, was shot and probably fatal ly wounded at a late hour last night by John lt. Cochran, tho Senator from An derson. The two men were standing at thc bar of Fine's saloon, when some dis pute arose, which resulted in the lie be iug passed. Mr. Dent struck Mr. Coch rau in tho face, and both men immedi ately backed and drew their pistols. Some one snatched Mr. Dent's pistol away. Mr. Cochran fired three shots, one of which struck Mr. Dent in the arm and auother in the abdomen. The last shot will almost certainly prove fatal. Mr. Cot'hrar was arrested and taken to jail.- Thursdag's Register. One of those unfortunate affairs, which have been so numerous all over America for years past, was the shooting at Fine's saloon, on Wednesday night. Two frisnds, who had been playing ten pins for several hours together, iev.vc the bowling alley, enter the bar, and go up to the counter with a view of tossing dice to decide who BIIUII pay a bill, both stim ulated with a drink-one jubilant over his success at tho pastime in the bowling alley below ; the other, an oxcitable man at best, irritated by his defeat, becomes again defeated. A laugh at his expense follows, his irritation increases, and hard words are spoken. In astonishment the victor at tue bowling alley assures the defeated man that he entertains no ill feeling against him, but words ensue, then blows, the interference of friends; the irritated man becomes more excited over the effort of friends to prevent the taking of life, but the hot blood is up, reason gone, pride, anger, 'revenge, all thc worst paKsious aroused, the pistol is resorted to, and men who but a moment before had been friends, are arrayed against each other in deadly strife. In an instant, one in the full vigor of early manhood falls-a wounded, bleeding body-to the floor, but to be removed to bis home to linger for a few days, and then pass away forever. It is the old story. Nobody to blame, or if there is, it is hard to say who it is, unless it be that enemy, that curse of mankind, John Barleycorn. There is no political significance in this unfortunate affair. Both men are Republicans-the one a State Senator, the other the Deputy Sherill* of the County of Richland. Senator Cochran is cut upon bail, and Mr. Dent is slowly sinking into his grave. Let us draw thc curtain here, and regret it, as we all do. This is the most that can be said and done, and nothing more can be said to thc advantage of anybody.-Friday's j Register. Mr. Thomas Dent, who was mortally wounded in a difficulty on Thursday morning, died at 6 o'clock yesterday morning. Tho coroner held an inquest over the remains yesterday, the verdict of the jury being that "the deceased came to his death by a pistol shot; said shot, tue jury have cause to believe, being fired by John R. Cochran." The funeral will take place at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Saturday's Register. THE UNION-HEEALD's STATEMENT. A difficulty occurred last night at Fine's bar room in which tho pistol was again brought into requisition, and which may end in the death of one of the par tica. Senator John R. Cochran, of An derson countv, and Mr. Thomas Dent, Bon of Sheriff Dent, and himself a deputy sheriff, were amusing themselves during the later hours of the evening rolling ten pins in the alley of Mr. Fine's saloon. About midnight they came to tho bar, and for a parting drink threw dice ns to who should pay for them. Mr. Dent threw sixteen, when Mr. Cochran good bumoredly remarked that that wat; a good radical throw, to which Mr. Dent took exception on the ground that Cochran did not know him (Dent) sufficiently to characterize him ns a Radical ; that he was a good Republican but radical in nothing. A few words of similar import followed, when Mr. Dent struck the Sen ator with his left band in the face and drew his pistol with bis right hand. To help disarm the parties, Mr. (J. P. Kirk land, who was present, seized Mr. Deut'B fn'stol and was endeavoring to wrest it rom him when Mr. Cochran drew his pistol mid fired, the ball taking effect in thc abdomen of Mr. Dent, who retreated, or was borne back into tho restaurant de ?iartment of the establishment, where he ell. He soon recovered, got upon his legs and advanced towards the bar, in thc direction where Mr. Cochran was. Seeing Mr. Dent advanco, Mr. Cochran fired again, the ball striking Mr. Denton tho left arm. Thc parties were then finally separated. Senator Cochran was taken to the guard house by Officer Dick Jones. Our reporter called at tho jail this morning and found Mr. Dent lying in bed, attended by Dr. Atkinson, the army surgeon at this post, who thinks it proba ble that the wound in thc abdomen may prove fatal. Senator Cochran was in custody in the office of the chief of police, where he was taking breakfast, ile claims thc shoot ing to have been done in self-defense. Thc mayor, having no jurisdiction, turned the case over to a trial justice. Aa the parties were good friends up to the moment of hostilities, the affair is deeply regretted by tho friends of each gentleman.-Nov. 23. Mr. Thomas Dent, who was shot in the abdomen nt an enrly hour yesterday morning, at Fine's saloon, by Senator John Cochran, died at his residence in the County jail, in this city, this morning at 6 o'clock. Mr. Dent suffered a great ! deal from his wound during tho early hours of this morning, but was cool, calm and in the full possession of all his mental faculties until his spirit passed away. Shortly before bia death he said to his father: "I am about to pass away, u... ? JJ - - ccnsc:.~::c have no prejudice against Slr. Cochran or Mr. Kirkland. I leave them to the law, which I trust, will take its course." Mr. Deut was thirty year? of age, a na tive of this city and unmarried. While our reporter w?s in the small room, which contained the remains, Sheriff Dent made the following statement : "I wish you would say in your paper that I am shocked at the baste made in this case to release the accused, Mr. Cochran. I instructed thc chief of police to make out an affidavit against Mr. Cochran, upon which Mr. Marshall would issue a warrant for his arrest, and ap pointed 2 o'clock for a hearing. When going to mv officu in the court house, I met Judge" Cooke coming out. I asked him if he lind been holding court. He replied that he had been bearing thc case of Mr. Cochran, charged with the shoot ing my son, who had been brought be fore bim on a writ of habeas corpus, and had released bini on a $1,000 bond. Tho testimony of the attending surgeons had not ncen taken as to the condition of my son, who was then dying. Tim whole proceeding* are unprecedented in my ex perience, and everything connected with the case was kept from mc." Thc old gentleman spoko without warmth or bitter feeling.

Ann..?.? *f. . ... IU- --.?. -'.x. WVMH^I V?? recur to tho past and learn lessons of wisdom from the teachings of histor.'', In the Declaration ol Independence our father- solemnly dechired "That all exp.rieuce had shown, that man kind are moro disposed to suffer, while evils are suffcrublo. than to right them nelve--.. * . * But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pur suing invariably tho same object, evinces a design to reduce Hiern un der absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to ihr ou such govern ment, and to provic .. v guards for their future security." Tyrants in all ages have presumed much on tho forbearance of the people, and this forbearance when it passes a certain point ceases to be a virtue and becomes a high political crime. That Gen. Grant possesses the low in stincts, uncontrolled by virtue and judg ment and the arbitrary will which fit him for tho lawless assumptions of pow er, tlie utter disregard of thc rights of ! individuals and States, and which cause him to regard thc Constitution as a by word, the history of his administration for tho laot four years amply proves. Tho chut-es of thc power with which the constitution invests him, has made the government of the United States ono of shame mid contempt. Ho lins surroun ded himself with rogues and thieves, and the Belknaps, Bubcocks and Shep hards are bia special favorites. Virtue, patriotism and statesmanship are un known to his administration. It ia an administration of vice, corruption and the arbitrary will of one man regardless of tho rights of States, thc requirements of the constitution and the will of the people. He lins for yenrs maintained by the bayonet at the bend of the govern ments of some of the Southern States, against the will of thc people, bad and corrupt men because they were bia po litical tools, and ns such could be used by him to accomplish his unlawful and tyrannical purposes. He ha3 encouraged crime and roguery in the administration of the government, by shielding men high in authority by his own appoint ment from tho demands of justice, and sustaining in power such men as Cham berlain, wiio, without his assistance, would find their residence in the peni tentiary. Ho lins arbitrarily subverted State governments, making Governors against the express will of the people, and sustaining them in power with Federnl bayonets. He assumed control of a legislative body by sending troops to take possession of thc legislative hall and forcibly ejecting tho representatives of the people to give place to his own vilo and petty tools ; and to-day he has lawless possesaion of the Capitol of | South Carolins, and by making his troops, in contravention of the laws and constitution of the State, judgc-3 of i the election of th? members of the Gen eral Assembly, has subverted justice, overthrown tho constitution, net aside tho will of the people, usurped their power, and tyrannically established a government of his own. Chamberlain is not a Governor chosen by thc people of South Carolina, for they have rejected him, but one appointed by Grant and Burrouuded and upheld by Federal bayonets. Tho so-called Repub lican Legislature which assembled in Columbia on iast Tuesday, is not com posed of representations of tho people, but of individuals declared by Grant's troops to be entitled to scats. Gen. Grant IIP.S not only thus sot nt defiance the laws of tho lund, but bo now t? .signs to mako tho next President of the United States. By tho bayonets Grant made a Governor of Louisiana, now seeks to make a Governor of South Carolina, and by bis troops sent into three Sta'es and concentrated in Washington City, mani fests his determination to mako the next President in despite of tho will of the people at the ballot box. Are these evils longer au fie rabie? Do these long trains of abuses and usurpation show a design to subvert constitutional liberty and es tablish a despotism ? Thc people of the United States munt determine, and upon this determination depends the future of j our Government. M. MYS. *!KEAIi. MARRIED, at the residence of 8. M.
