Mr. Cliriet/.berg has the agency lor a patent inkstand that is highly reecouicnded as it will not upset, nor spill ink, and will keep the ink clean. Every-body * should have one as they aic cheap, ornamental and useful. * Ilurglars attempted to raid on the! bank Monday night last, but were frightened off by Mrs. Lockwood who wa* ( awakened by the noise. There are now two vucnncies in the I % United State* naval academy at Annapo- ! lis, to be filled by the appointment of , youths from South Carolina as eadet . t midshipmen. , The committee appointed by the grand ' jury at the last term of court to exam inc into the affairs of the county met last1 week and completed their labors on Thursday, but what their conclusions' are will not be known till the June term j of Court, 'rite time given to the subject j was too short to enable them to investigate as thoroughly as they should have' liked. A correspondent of tlie h'auticul Gazette criticises very severely Hie action of the Nary department in abundoniiig Pcnsacola and the selection of Port Royal as a station. lie says in regard to the hcalthfulness of Port Royal that we j have swamp fevers licic the year round, j w hile nobody is ever sick at Pensncola' if they behave themselves and do not 1 omit to keep clean. Wc arc sorry we have bo mudh ''swamp fevef'' here, wc thought it was only Spring fever; at lesat that is our complaint. The Y?*inu*sce Nuritcr. The particulars of the shooting affair 1 at Ycmusacc last Wednesday hv which ' Seymour llrown, a train hand on thcj S. A C. Railroad, tost his life have hor n told in so many and conflicting ways that ' we have taken the pains to get the correct version ol the nffairs whieli was as, follows: Some time ago a gentleman was din-j ing with T. J. Jones at Yen assee and on ; his departure loft an umbrella which Mr. | Jones took charge of. The owner of the : umbrella, who lives in Charleston, after-1 wards instructed Brown t<? get it when ; he went to Ycmassce should he he able to fthd It. When the train on which Brown is employed reached Yematsee i on that day Brown discovered the inn-! lirella on some other baggage on the' platform and took possession of it, when ine man Having ctiaige of the baggage, went and told Jones that some one had | taken the umbrella. Jones wentiminedi ately to where Mown was and took the ! umbrella from him and carried it to the . dining rooms and supposed that wan the last be would hear of the matter. | Ten minutes after Brown went to Jones 1 and inquired if lie had the umbrella, w ords ensued and Jones cufced Brown, i when Brown struck Jones a blow on the! mouth, a scuffle followed when Jones; thinking he was unable to defend him i self managed to escape and drawing his1 pistol tired two shots at Jones one taking effect in the mouth and the other in I the heart causing death in about one' minute. Jones was not connected with the restuufftnt at Ye mas see us has! been asserted in several accounts. Wc had the pleasure this week of meeting Col. Keegm, the correspondent of the vvasinngt >n uiironicle, who lias been aiming us "taking notes'' ami "faith he'll' Jiri.it em."

Mr. Kditori In connection with Mr. Sperry'a statement that the Urnes of the Beaufort Branch Bunk would p/bbXlify reach the sain of $f00.000-we would suggest to Mr. Bperry to add by way of explanation that the mam portion of the deficit at Beaufort (what ever it may figure up on the Bank Books) was and is no bus at all to the colored people of this vicinity taken collectively. The simple fact is that moat of the | money obtained as Loans from the IU?nu-' fort Branch was immediately redistribu- ' ted Jfcnong the colored people who, one ' and all. obtained for their seed-cotton in the Fall and winter of 1873t-f878, full forty par cent more" tiiAlV they Cuj?ht j to Imve teceivcd for it. The disastrous effects of the sudden iMvd tinexpcc'cd collaps-j in valtfc of L>ong JStap!e nt that period have borne! with unteh more crushing effect on tin i'niii?:h\ parlies who, making sonic use of Bauk credit, only succeeded in dialing upon their own heads the l\ill weight of the avalanche, and they are entitled to fccetve quite ns much sympathy *3 the Beaufort depositors. Oniv. so far as the writer knows, they doilt ask it. ''Viatok." A brotlk'r of 1 om Hamilton was dangerously injured last week in Colleton County, by the explosion of a horn of powder, suspended by a string around ! his neck.
