On Wednesday morning of last week a difficulty occurred on- the plantation of Mrs. T. L. Heid, in Pendletoo Township, between Mc M. C. Darby and Tom Ham? mond, a colored tenant on the place, which resulted ia tbe fatal shooting of the negro. It seems that some disagreement had arisen about the amount of rent that was due Darby, whioh had been referred to an arbitration, which decided in Darby'B favor. Hammond had failed to pay the rent according to the terms of the arbitra? tion, and was attempting to move off the place, when Darby forbade his doing so. He persisted in driving on through Dar? by's premises, when the latter came up in front of tbe wagon and ordered him again to stop. Hammond drove tbe wagon up against Darby, who seized the reins and turned the n>ule aside. Hammond then jumped irom the wagon and advanced on Darby, threatening te> kill him, at the game time calling to his brother to help, upon which Darby fired, the load taking effect in the negro's knee. The leg was amputated in tbe afternoon of the same day and tbe negro died on Friday. On Thursday a warrant was sworn out against Darby for assault and battery with intent to kill, and on Friday be came to town and gave bond for his appearance at Court. The Coroner's inquest was held on Satur? day, and there being but little direct evi? dence presented, brought in a verdict that tbe deceased came to his death from a gun shot wound in the hands of some party unknown. No warrant bas been taken against Mr. Darby. It is understood, how? ever, that at the proper time he will appear and ask for trial, The managers of the Opera House will open the theatrical season to-morrow (Thursday) night with Clark & Smith's roaring farce comedy, "Tit for Tat."

We ali?de to the death of Mrs. Margaret McConnell, wife of Mr. J. H. McConnell, which occurred in this city last Thursday afternoon. Her death was expected by her family and friends for some time, for she had been an invalid for several years, but she bore her sufferings with Christian patience and fortitude, and when the sum? mons of death came she was prepared to meet it. Mrs. McConnell was in the 63rd year of her age, and was born and reared in the Midway section. Since her girl? hood she had been a faithful member of the Midway Presbyterian Church and was highly. esteemed by all who knew her. She was so gentle and kind in her dispo? sition, and ever ready to assiat and com? fort the afflicted and distressed, that her memory will long linger in the minds of her friendB. Last Friday morning her re? mains were interred in the Midway Churchyard, Her. Dr. Frierson conduct? ing the funeral services in the presence of a large congregation of relatives and friends. A husbaud and four children, all of whom are grown, survive her, and in their bereavement they have many sympathizers. Peudloton Correspondence. Probably no town in the State can boast of 'having such fine Btook as Pendleton. There are about half a dozen good stock farms around here and all filled with blooded stock. Some of the stock is car? ried to the State Fairs held all .over the South, and they never come home with? out taking the prizeB, not only in blue ribbons, bnt in money. Pendleton is proud of ber stock farms. A new depot here would add much to the looks of Pendleton. Thla one has been here ever since the road was built, and we think it ia time that we had a new one. /Several years ago the railroad brought all tbe material here to build a nice depot, but for some unknown reason it was never done. Tbe lumber has been carried away, and it may be a long time before a new depot ia seen in Pendleton. When work first began on Clemaon, a great many people thought it would ruin Pendleton from a business standpoint, but such is not the case, Tbe merchants have at last realized that the establishment of the' College ia a good help to them. It helps them in several ways. Some of the met chants uend wagon loads of goods to Port Ulli every day, and then the stu? dents come down very often to trade. There is no doubt about Clemson's help? ing Pendleton. A young lady here, being accused of writing these letters from Pendleton, said : "If I couldn't write any better than that I'd quit." It was Senator Irby who said, wbeu A. C. Latiiner was accused of writ? ing the famous "Graddock" letter, "Hell, man, Lntimer can't write that good Eng? lish." Probably this ia what she meant, only she used "1" tabtead of "Latlmer." All the old officers were not re-elected in the town election, as was Btated last week. Mr. M. M. Hunter was re-elected Intendant and tbe following gentlemen were elected wardens: H. P. Sitton, J. W. Harrison, Edward Smith and Edward Holuus. Tho Wardens are all new men, and there ia no telling what all they will not do. In glancing over an old,book recently entitled "Mill's Statistics of South Caro? lina," published in 1848, I came across this sentence: "The climate of Pendleton is one of tbe best in the United States, and equal to any in the world." It is th( same to day as it was forty-five years ago, if not better. There is very little sickness in Pendleton. The hotel scheme is not dead yet, by any means. As soon as the money can ail be raised it will be built, and be one of the fiaeat in the State. Two families living in one bouse is too much. A few nice cottages to rent would be a great convenience to the people of Pendleton. Tbe Greenville News gets here in tbe mornings about twice a week. It is very ?"?"B?I *~ ? Fort Hill every morning.

Editors Intelligencer: I wish to inform the public generally that I will be in An? derson about the 20th inst. I never wanted to see the little city and my friends so badly as at tbe present time. There where one meets naught but con? geniality, friendship and warm hospi? tality, is where I am anxious to return. Often has the remark been passed, "No one who leaves our city fails to return." It is only too true, and I have come to realize myself that there is only one An? derson, one such people. I am closing my practice here so as to remain perma? nently in your midst. Anderson is a thriving city, and an immense amount of business is done there, and can only be realized by going away, and, "looking backward," compare her to places of equal size, and even much larger North? ern cities. It is needless to say she holds her own. Long may she prosper. Sincerely yours, F. L. Naramore. Tribut? of Respect.
