"?>--.-. :-? We are now prepared to receive fifteen' or twenty more children. It is earnestly devired that the members oi oar Board of Visitors endeavor to find an orphan in each County, and send it to the Home. As there is no doubt as to the import anoe of this benevolent institution, let me ask for a general and hearty co-ope? ration in its support by a generous pub? lic. We will gladly receive donations in money, provisions,-clothing, I ami tare, land or property of any kind. The sooner the institution can be made self supporting, the better it will be. Let me call the attention of the public to the Orphan's Appeal, the neat little monthly whioh is published by our Board. It shows the workings and wants of our Home, and will be read with interest by the child reo. The price for one year is only fifty cents, which goes toward the support of the Home. This little paper has obtained a wide cir? culation, and is financially a success. In behalf of the institution, let me extend our thanks to all the sympathetic friends who have aided us daring the past year. J. W. PARKER, Superintendent. Colombia, S.

Cape Bomain light-house station a tragedy, which is [ terrible in its details. It>s one of those horrible mysteries that baffle all at? tempts-at solution. The faotd of the case, as far as-they oan be gathered, are as follows: Captain Andrew Johnson is the keeper of the light-house at Cape Bomain, where he resided with his wife. On the'evening of the 8th instant, about 5 o'clock, Captain Johnson went np to the light-house'to light and trim the] lamp for the night..- He left Iiis wife in the housed whioh is in sight of the light? house, and in the yard of whioh she was seen by him tip to 6 o'clock, when it be- J oame too dark to distinguish objects. At about halt-past 8 o'clock in the even-1 ing, Julius L. Lee, one of the assistant keepers, went to the light-house to re-| liovo Captain Johnson. In a few mo? ments, Lee went out on the piazza of | the station, and saw Captain Johnson running towards the dwelling of the as? sistants, crying out that bis wife was dead.- The body of Mrs. Johnson was| found lying in the centre of the floor, clad in her night olothes, and surround? ed by a pool of blood. A revolver be? longing to her husband was lying by her side, but its chambers were not dis? charged. The deadly instrument with whioh the terrible deed had been com? mitted was a razor, by whioh her throat had been out from ear to ear. There had evidently been an attempt to use the pistol, whioh was not successful. About the room was lying a let cf wearing ap? parel of the unfortunate victim and some of her husband's jewelry. All of her own jewelry, however, was missing, as was also a lot of money wbioh she had in her possession at the time of herj death. The door leading from the room to the piazza, whioh fastened on the in? side, was open, and an attempt had evi? dently been made to pass out of it. In the garden below, a pair of gold speota-! oles belonging to the deceased were I found. Previous to the tragedy, Mrs. Johnson had called upon her neighbor, Mrs. Loo, and appeared, tc be in good health and oheerful spirits. Captain Johnson states that she had once told him that she had on a previous occasion attempted to take her own life, and that I on several occasions she had talked and acted as if she was a little "flighty.") The deceased was a native of Sweden, but had lived in this oonntry for twenty two years. At the time of her death, she was fifty-three years old. [ Charleston News.
