If I believed that ft Southern man could win, of course, I would be for a Southerner, first, lest and all the time; and, when the delegation reaches the Convention, ftftd look over the situation, and after eonsultatipn with Democrats from all over the country, It is believed that ft Bouthern man can win, then I vote for a Southerner. My t ticket would be, Harmon and n |t has been the custom to send as delegates at large from this State, the two Senators; the Governor, and the State chairman. I do not know what the policy of the Convention will be Mrs. Grecnhow Kept Generals John' a ston aad Beauregard Posted as to Federal Troops. In Harper's, for March, William OUmore Beymer tells the true story of Mrs. Greenhow, a Washington wo man of gentle birth who acted as a spy for the Confederacy and gave the information which resulted In the Confederate victory at Bull Run. “Washington lay ringed about with camps of new-formed regiments, drilling feverishly. Already the press and public had raised the cry, ’On to Richmond.’ When would they start? W^we would they first strike? It was on those* two points that the Confederate plan of cam paign hinged. It was Mrs. Green- how who gave the information. To Gen. Beaurege.rd at Manassas, where he anxiously awaited tidings of the Federal advance, there came about the 10th of July the first message from Mrs. Greenhow. The message told of the intended advance of the enemy across the Potomac and on to Manassas via Fairfax Court House and Centrevllle. It was brought into the Confederate lines by a young lady of Washington. Miss Duval, who, disguised as a market girl, car ried the message to a house near Fairfax Court House, occupied by the wife and daughters (Southern) of an officer In the Federal army. Gen. Beauregard at once commenced bis preparations for receiving the attack, and sent one of his aides to Presi dent Davis to communicate the In formation and to urge the immediate concentration of the scattered Con federate forces. “But still the Federal start was delayed, and the precise date was as Indefinite as ever. It was during this period of uncertainty that G. Donellan, who, before Joining the Confederates, had been a clerk In the department of the Interior, volunteer ed to return to Washington for Infor mation. Hs was armed with the two words ‘Trust Dearer’ In Col Jordan's cipher, and was sent across the Po tomac with Instructions to report to Mrs. Greenhow. He arrived at the very moment that she most needed a messenger Hastily writing In cipher her all-important dispatch, ‘Order Is sued for McDowell to move on Man assas to-night,’ she gave It to Don- ellan, who was taken by her agenta In a buggy, with relays of horses, down the eastern shore of the Potom ac to a ferry near Dumfries, where he was ferried across. Cavalry couriers delivered the dispatch into Gen. Beau regard’s hands that night, July 16. “And the source of Mfs Oren- bow’s Information? She has made the statement that she ’received a eo|ta of the order to McDowell.' Al lan Pfnkerton was not wrong when he said that she ‘had not used her powers In vain among the officers of the army.' p? “At mlddrny of the 17th there came Col Jordan'* Yeply; ■’ ‘Yours wss received at 8 o’clock at night.

A ** The Aiken correspondent of The State says a warrant charging Fred 7 erick O. Beach, New York society man and member of the Aiken mil lionaire colony, with assault and bat tery with intent to kill hi* wife, Mrs. Camilla Beach, wa* swocn out there Monday. This action grows out of the as sault made upon Mr*. Beach on the night of February 26, when she was felled with a fence paling and her throat was slashed, in the yard of her winter home, Which has been the sea son’s sensation at this resort. It was claimed by the Beaches that Mrs. Beach had been called out to the gate by a negro man, who said he had a note for her; that she went to get It and that the negro then slashed her throat and made his escape in the darkness. A gold-plated, diamond-studded pocket knife, the property of Beach, given by him to Mayor Gyles about three weeks ago, is held as mute evi donee against him. Upon microscopic examination made by experts, first In Aiken, then In Augusta and lastly In Columbia, quantity of human blood was found on the larger blade. This Is one of the prosecution's main points, it is also said that a conver sation between Mr. and Mrs. Bfe&ch, overheard while the two were left in a room by a man concealed behind bookcase for the purpose will be re lied upon to some extent A warrant accusing Beach has been expected for more than a week past by those who have been In the secret that the detective employed by the city authorities was continuing his In vestigattonB. This detective. M. 8 Laughan, who came here about three weeks ago, was one of the sleuths who succeeded In landing ^be Ruef behind the bars. The warrant was sworn out by 3 K. Holley, one of the rural police men of that county before Magistrate Smoak. and Solicitor Gunter took slept at once to have the governor of South Carolina Issue a requisition upon the governor of New York for Beach Beach left there two weeks ago with hla wife for New York, giving It out before hla departure that he In tended to sail for Europe April 20 with W K. Vanderbilt, whoae guests he and Mrs Beach were to be on their European trip. It was learned, however, after Solicitor Gunter had left the city, that the Beaches sailed from New York for a European port last Wedneaday Pearl Hampton, the negro woman who was also struck with the same a few minutes before Mrs Beach was struck down and who has stoutly refused to 'She was ready with fresh Infor- , . , . give the police any information of matloa. and the messenger was sent , . . . * „ . . the events of that night, was also tak- back tfttk the new s that the E ederals , . . . . . .. , . . w ,, en Into custody, together with two Intended to cut the Manassas Gap . . , . , , ... . , I maids from the home of Joseph Mar ital road to prevent Johnson, at Win- , , . _ „ . rmian. the valet of C.

Jordan the treasured message: 'Our President and our general direct me to thank you We rely upon you for further Information. The Confederacy owes you a debt.’ ‘When the details of the battle be came known, and she learned how the last of Johnson's 8,500 men ss wltnessee and gave bond for their appearance at the June term of court of general sessions, which convenes a that place on June 3. It was through Mr. Dolan's valet. Charlie Woodridge, whose wife Is Mrs. Beach s maid, that It was learn ed that the Beaches had sailed for Europe. Woodridge stated, after his arrest, that he had received a wire (marched to Gen. Beauregard's aid from his wife Tuesday night that she because of her dispatches) had ar rived at three o’clock on the day of the battle and had turned the waver ing Federal army Into a mob of pan ic-stricken fugitives, she felt that the Confederacy owed her a debt,’ In deed.’’ YOUNG TRAMP IS KILLED. Was Making Tour of the World in Side Door Pullman. A special to the Savannah Press from Millen says Reckley Price, aged seventeen, who has been traveling over the United States with Howard Vendevoner, another boy about his age, was killed by a train there last night. The dead boy lived at 113 Eighteenth street, Buffalo, N. Y. He and his companion had been “hobo- , , , Ing” for the fun of it. They have ^e_lym-hlug of the person or per would sail the next morning with Mr and Mrs. Beach for Europe. The complaint is sworn out on In formation and belief and alleges that; “On the night of the 26th day ol February F. O. Iteach did commit an assault and battery with Intent to kill in that he did wilfully, unlaw fully and maliciously and with malice aforethought, with a knife or some sharp instrument, cut and wound one Mrs. Camilla Beach with intent her, the said Mrs. Camilla Beach, to kill and murder.’’ Rapidly spread the news that a warrant had been issued charging Beach with the crime '•'that the Beaches had persistently charged to an unknown negro, out of the gossip of which grew the wrath of C.

C. KISER COMPANY ATLANTA, GA. LUNATIC ATTACKS PHYSICIAN. Dr. J. A. Faison, of IU-nn»-tfaville. Receives Severe Cuts. A dispatch from Bennettsvllle to The News and Courier says Dr J A. Faison was sevcrly cut last night by John White, a crazy negro. About 11 o'clock Dr Faison received a ’phone message to go to the planta tion of Mr Kenneth Mafheson. about six miles west of IWnnettsvdie, to see White, who was acting as a crazy man. Dr. Faison hastened to answer the call In the meantime the negro had escaped from those who had him in custody. -As Dr. Faison drove on the dam at Egypt Mill the negro, with a sheet over him, jumped in front of the horse and seized the lines, frightening the horse. It looked like the horse would back the buggy from the dam and the doctor got out. The negro advanced and slashed the doctor’s face with a knife. Dr. Faison grabbed the negro and threw him down, but soon found that the negro had two knives. Finally the doctor succeeded in pinning both of the negro’s hands down, but in that position he could not take the knives away from him. After about fifteen minutes two negro njen came up and the lunatic was tied. Then Dr. Faison found he was badly cut. He hurried to Bennettsville and Drs. Crossland and Kinney dressed his wounds.
