Mad dogs have been ongondering quite a stir among the other dogs in the vicinity of Foasterville and Shelton's Depot, in the last month. The kitchen of D. R. Coleman with all its furniture and one bale of cotton was destroyed by fire last week-the cooking stove being the evil agent. All communications, qf whatever nature, intended for this paper, should be addressed to THE NEWS AND HERALD, or to the WINNsBono Pun LISHING COMPANY. The Grange at Feasterville, it is said by some of its oldest members, had, on the 17th inst., the best meeting since its organization. It is now out of debt and has consid, erable money In its treasury. Its prospects are bright. The Universalists at Feasterville have now a living church. It was lately organized with twenty-five members. D. R. Coleman, J. A. F. Coleman and V. P. Clayton are its deacons, J. C. Feaster its treasurer, and J. Hendrix McLane, clerk. The membership is taking steps to influence the county commissioners to grant no licenses for the sale of liquors in that vicinity. Rev. ). B. Clayton, of Columbia,- on the 11th inst., preached a powerful sermon in defence of their creed against the assaults of some other denomina tions upon the Universalist doc trine. A DISTINGUISHED GUE&T.-Mr. 1. P. Kimball, of Illinois, camne to Winnsboro on Saturday morning, and remained over till Monday, being the guest of Maj. T. W. Wood ward and Col. Jas. H. Rion. He re~ ceived a number of other invitations which his limited time prevented him from accepting. A number of citizens called on him, and w ore much le~ased with his affability and his liberal sentiments. Mr. Kim ball expresses himself as delighted with his cursory visit to South Carolina, and predicts that she has a glorious future before her. Major Wood ward was determnined that the "Winnebago Chief" should be captLured, and that his scalp should adorn the den of the "boss ku-klux of Fairfield." For that reason he brought him up from Columbia. Before his departure, he presented him with a tomahawk that once belonged to the Florida Indian Chief, Ya-ha--ha-jo, who was killed in the Seminole war of 1886, by the Fairfield company, in the first skirmish. The full account of the capture of this trophy was given by Dr. T. T. Robertson, one of the party that slew the chief. Major WV. thinks there are one or two things yet wanting to thorough ly acquaint his distinigished guest with the workmngs of a Southern plantation ; but minor detilsi must be reserved for a future visit. Mr. Kimball left on Monday for Charles, ton, wvhere he will be introduced to the magnificent scenery up the Ashley, and will inspect the opera-e tions of the phosphate manufacto. ries. The excavations at Olympia have tnearthed a beautiful marble statue, which,the eavouse declare unhesita tingly to be the figure of Hermes, by Praxitles, described by Pausan ius An und nubted original work by that great sculptor would be well worth digging nnp a tow tofaid Fairfield at the Fair.
