Waller Hussard, a nine-year old son of Mrs. Amanda Saasard, met with a most painful accident in this city on last Mon day about 12 o'clock. Ile was sitting on tho lloor of tho piazza at Iiis homo amusing himself by popping matches on nn old rusty worn-out pistol. While thus engaged, the occupants or thc house wore startled by tho report of a pistol and the screams of tho little fellow. His mother ran to him and was horrified to flud that ho had boon shot, tho ball hav ing entered his loft side, near tho tenth rib. Dr. J. O. W?hlte was immediately summoned. Ho probed for tho hall, which wa? of a 22-callbro size, but could not (ind lt, and Its exact location is uot yet known. Tho old pistol had boon among Walter's play-things for ?orno timo, mid no one knew that it con tained a load. Wednesday morning the little fellow was doing very well, and though ho ls not yet out of dangor, tho physicians are hopeful of his recovery. On hist Thursday afternoon Baylis Wil liams, a colored boy, was accidentally shot and killed on tho plantation of Mr. W. B. Watson, about thrco milos North of tho city.

McClellan, a whlto hoy, togother with two or three other children, were out hunting. McClellan had a shot gun with him. Becoming tired of hunting, thoy sat down on tho ground in tho shade and woro playing mumble-peg, when Freder ick Williams picket! up McClellan's gun and was oxamining it. McClellan, lu a playful manner, attempted to takehisgun away from Williams, and In thc scuttle, that ensued the gun was discliargod, the wholo load entering tho stomach of Bay lis Williams, killing him almost instant ly. Tho verdict or the Coroner's jury was in accordance with those facts. Speaking or the Citadel Academy, tho Charl?lo.!

Tho Greenville ?feas of Sunday moruliig contains the following account of recent arrests in that town for counterfeiting, which will greatly surprise our readers, many of whom are acquainted with the defendants, and will anxiously await the result of th? investigation into the truth of tho charges made. Ttie Neu-t aaya : The tranquil town of Williamston, eighteen miles below here, is now in a condition of ozcitouient not equalled since the famous elopement that disturbed ita soronlty several years ago, and everybody is discussing the arrec?s mado from this city on Friday evening. It has been whispered around for some time that somohody in Williamston was engaged in making and circulating coun terfeit mouoy, and thore aro now a num ber of people who claim to have known Uti about it. From Gtatemonta mado by clllumsor Williamston thore baa been a surprising degree or publicity in tho mat ter and tho only wonder is that theofllcial descent has not boon made l>efore. In consequonco of iuforinntloi roeeivod Deputy Marshal lt. A. Dkhson went tc Williamston on Thursday, and with very little- dltliculty obtained material for a caso against J. J. Cooloy and A. J. Burrett. Both tho mon aro prominent In the com munity. Thoy aro wardons of tho town and Cooley is actiug intoudant lu tho absenco of that o Ulcer. Surratt ls a shoe maker and has apparently made a very I fair living by his trado. Cooloy ls a lar mer and has a cotton gin mid is tho owner of a considerable property. Mr. Dickson returned hero and obtained a warrant from U. S. Commissioner Hey ward, and ho and Doputy Marabel H. P. Williams wont down on Friday. They failed to lind either Cooloy or Surratt at home, tho formor having gone to mill, wbilo tho other bad como to this city, lu tho evening, however, Cooley was found lying on a bench in the town park watching a game of base ball, and waa immediately arrested. Soon aftor Surratt was captured as he rode into town on his return. Tho prisoners vi ere brought here that night and lodged in jail a 1 o'clock, Yesterday the ofiicors returned to WU? liamstou and captured what they claim ls a completo outlit of counterfeiting tools; including a galvanic battery. These things wore found in a loft over Surratt's shoo shop and wore brought hero to bc used in evidence. Cooloy on yesterday gave ball in tht sum of ?1,000 for his appearance for trial and waa released. Ho is well connect?e and it is said, could havo glveu $25,0CK bail If lt had hoon required. Tho o il iee rs claim that thoy havo a clea; caso and can establish thc fact that th? prisoners have been making cotinterfei dollar pioces on scientific principios am havo had them oxtonsivofy circulated. One of them is said to have had a verj decidod talent for chemistry and to havi used it in tho business. Both the prison era are reticent and declined making an j statement. The Greenville News of Tuesday give* tho following additional particulars : The cases of A. J. Surratt and J. J Cooley, thocitizons of Williamston eharg cd with conntorfoiting coins of tho Unite States wero heard bofore Commissions Hawthorne ou yesterday. George Wost moreland appeared for Mr. Surnitt an Col. W. H. Perry for Mr. Cooloy. Th only important evidence presented wa given by Messrs. Greer, Burgiss am Hodges and a colored man named Jorr Seowright. It showed very clearly tht tho defendants had been trying ox ne. i men ts in imitating silver dollars, ana ha mado some of the imitations and som imitation nickola, and had some roug and crudo implements apparently design ed for une in that way. It was proved thu several scraps of metal with bolos tb aizo of tho dollar, and others boarltig psi of the impress ol' the same uoln had bec found in Surratt's shop, and Seew ligl testified that ou going there early on morning he found a pilo of now nickol on Surratt's work bench. A galvan battery and a viso of strange aud uuusui shape wero also found, with a number c bottles of chemicals including nitrato < silver, quicksilver and cynidc of pota stun. There was no evidence of an attempt to pass the counterfeits. The commissioner decidod to bail tl prisoners in tho sum of $1,000 each.^^ of Mr. Cooley's hondsmon jpfeiind fe released but a subsj,}*^, but will probi a4OTxo-day. Both tho prisoner 'ilYs?i?ed to make any statement in ad vant of their trial except u general donlal < guilt. From the questions asked tb witnesses on cross examination, boweve it was evident that it will be claimed fe the defence that the galvanic battery wt ono obtained by Mr. Surratt for tho pm pose of plating some worn brass watch1 and that others of tho chemicals wero f tho same purpose Tho Y.
