The work of tearing down the old Court House brgan last Monday morning. AU I of the officers have moved into the store room recently occupied by Cole cfc Coffee, in tho Reed block, on North Main street, which they will occupy until tbe new Court House ie completed. The first thing to be moved from the old building was the city clock in the steeple. The clock will bo very much missed, and it has been suggested that Mayor Tolly ar range to have tbe police strike the hours of both day and night with the fire-bell. We think tbe suggestion a good one, and hope it will be carried out, as it would be a great convenience to the public, and es pecially to the mechanics, who have loag regulated their hours of work by the city clcck. The City Council has sold the lot on West Bsnson street, on which the guard house, stables and fire bell now stands, Mr. J. L. McGee being the purchaser. At a meeting of tbe Council yesterday after noon it was determined to at once erect a City Hall on the cornor of East Market and South Main Streets.

The guard house and the keeper's bouse, with the stables, will be in the rear of the City Hall. These latter buildings will have to bo completed with in sixty days, as Mr. McGee wants posses sion of his lot within that time. Mr. Mo ti ee paid ?l,2i)0 for the lof. Tho Grcenvillo Mountaineer copies the account of the l'erry-Bynum duel, which was published in the Intelligencer last week, and refers to it as follower "In an other column will be found a racy account of the famous and fatal duel fuught bo tween tbo lato Gov. Perry and Turner By num, in which the latter was killed. This narrative of the duel is given by Prof. W. A. Dickson, of Townville, Anderson County, who was raisod within a fow miles of the duelling ground, and has boon familiar with the story all his lifo. He is fond of reminiscenses, and ia gifted in de scribing the events of the past. Perhaps there wo3 never a duel so celebrated about which so little has been recorded in the current publications of the day, and Btrange to say both of the duelists wore J editora of newspapers in Greenville when the meeting took place. few years ago, at the instance of a teacher in Anderson County, we made an elfort to get the faota of the duel from tho newspaper files and from some of our oldest citizens, but there was scarcely any authentic information to be had from either source. Governor Perry never made a voluntary allusion to this unfortunate incident in hie early ca reer, so far as we have been able to ascer tain, and the high regard in which he was held did not permit any breach of decorum by others. It ia probable that the Moun tainccr refrained from giviDg a circum stantial account of the duel, beoause Gov. Perry was its editor at that time, and it was in keeping with the noble, generous conduct of Gov. Perry not to make any abatement of the downfall of his adversary. Mr. Bynum's paper went out of existence shortly after the duel, and even its name has been forgotten. Our younger readers especially, will be interested in this inci dent of local history, a theme that is far too seldom directed to their attention." Bicycle Contest.

Silver Wedding. One of tho most brilliant social events of the season was celebrated on Tuesday evening, 22d nit., at the handsome resi dence, in this city, of Mr. and Mrs. B. Frank Mauldin, tbe occasion being the twenty-fifth anniversary of their happy union in matrimony. The function was duly announced by conventional carda, in silver print, and the Bpaoious drawing-rooms and halls were tbronged with the friends and relatives of the bride and groom, while many letters of regret from distant ones told of the in terest that marked the event abroad. Elegant and tasteful presents, in profu sion, testified t~> the genuine esteem of people who knew" them best. So liberal was the collection of appropriate offerings that one, in making a survey of the beau tiful outlay and considering the impres sions of the hour, almost bethought him self in the very presence of Hymen?in tbe midat of the first nuptials. Elaborate decorations accorded with the surroundings ferns, palms and rare flow era vied with artificial adornments to make the scene complete in harmony and detail. Accomplished musiclanc rendered eweet selections, and the whole house, thrown open with real southern welcoming hos pitality, was filled with gay and happy peo ple. One specially admired feature of the or namentation was a bunch of Brides-maid roses frozen in perfect form within a huge block of ice and mounted on the center dining table. During the evening a bountiful repast was served, embracing the utual refresh ments and Lubatantials. No pains were spared to make the occa s'on one of thorough enjoyment to all; tbe elderly ones talked of days gone by, while the young perhaps indulged freely in hopeful converse upon lines euggetted by the surroundings.
