WE HAVE received at our offic the first number of the "Honea Pathi Herald,'' p~ubli shed by McDavid & Bear'd. From its first issue it promises to be a live and an energetic paper. Thle Sal utatory and the editorials which follow it, bespeak for its editor success in the fields of' journalism, and our wish is, that the "Herald" might live long and prosper, and that it will also receive the patron age which such an enterprise de serves. THE FIRsT number of the "Charleston Independent" has found its way into our sanctum. It is published in Charleston by Messrs. J. Hendrix McLane & T. Barker Jones. The would be Greenback Governor has quit his old colors, in name, and now at I empts to run what he calls an In dependent sheet. H~e will en use us for terming it a dependent rad ical sheet-anchor, and after he and his party fail to be saved by iL. what nert shall the do? On si 4~i 'lot qu1' C4 were t surprfi arrival of the West bound train, to see Chief-of-Police Greer, from Greenville, alight from the train and proceed to hunt up Iolice- E man Martin, of bur town. But in t fifteen minutes time the whole mat- 1 ter was explained, by the capture ' of Primus Moore, colored, who c was supposed to have been one of ( a partj who had robed the Cloth ing store of Messrs. McMahan & t Gwinn, of Greenville, on Monday night previous. le was carried E by the officers around to his stop- 1 ping place at Hannah Good's. But I officer Martin went on to Eliza J Austin's,another friend of Primuis, where he found a large bulk of the I stolen goods, she taking pleasure 2 in showing them up, while Prinius denied the theft, saying they were I given to him by his mother. le I had in different places, goods toll the amount of $150.00, all of which .1 were recognized by McMahan & Gwinn as their goods, however, some of which they had not niss ed. He, or they, had eltered the Q store from the rear hy. using an ax. h'ie gas was btirning in the store 'I w hich he did not even lower, and 'j an open glass front made it a most daring piece of business, wohen it 5 is considered that he picked for the best goods in the house, ran. sacking every shelf and table, and even took shirts in the front win (low, all of which is proof that lie had aid from the outside in the way of a look-out or watch. lIe was carried, by Capt Greer, to Greenville on Saturday night and lodged in the guard-house, where : he, on Sunday, still dlenied the 1 theft, but ownedl that he was an es- i capedi conviet from North Caroli- e aa, which ledl to a correspondence < with the oficials,which prloved that'I he was correct, he having escapedl 1 from there little over a year ago. [His right name is Gus Cole, and i of course he will have to be return ed there to' finish his sentence be- < fore being tried in Greenville. It < is now thought that he had some thing to do with the P. 0. robbery I in this place in Feburay last, as he was here at the time, but was in jail in Pickens, for living in adultery, when the store of Robin son- & Wyatt was robbed in April. He is a regulai adept, and it is hoped that enough may be found I against him to keep him the bal- I ance of his undeserving days. I What lead to his dletectioni, main ly, was a report to McMahan & Gwiun, from Fed Blassingame, a i colored man of' this vicinity, and : the boldness of himsel in we,.ing, e e shirt h11."a$ n 04%-o Sille on ue THE ANDEI'Q* PRIMARY.
