At a meeting of the County Comnmis sioners last week it was decided not to build a bridge across the river at Chap pells. Commissioner Perry, of New berry, met the Commissioners from Edgefiel< at Chappells last Thursday to consider the matter of the two coun ties uniting in the building of a bridge at that place. We understand that the Edgefield Commissioners are willing to go to work and pay their half of the cost, and Newberry backs out. We think this a mistake. A bridge at Chappells would be worth more to Newberry than to Edgefield, and we can't see why those people at Chappells should not be given a t>ridge. It would not cost Newberry County exceeding $1,000. It would be a good idea to have an other bridge or two further down the river, thus making Edgefield, as it were, nearer to us.

We pu iiiish elsewhere an article fromt t he Atlanta (Contstitut iou relative to the deati of ('alviii (rozier, an d the sib joined io tive taken from the Newherry Herald at the time. The tragic event is as follows: The train (Conduetor Billy -uith, as we learn,) on board of which were the colored troop going to thecoa=t, str p ped at Newberry becau-e of an iti.rrultion;t Ielow. The ne_ro soldiers had left the ear- and gon.e into camp at Acade:niv ;Ive, not far fromt the dep,t. On the c'ach of the up-train, alo st~hpped beeause of the lateness of its :.rrival, were two iadies who had b?er placed in charge of Mr. Crozier by the conductor. As some time would elapse before the departure of the train, and it being a beautiful mnoornlighrt night, they walked out to enjoy the quiet and beauty of the night. On returning they found one of these men prowling about thecoach. Crozier spike to him about the impropriety of his beintg there, to which ie replied with an oath. Crozier told him to re nienlier that ladies were present. To this he also answered with a curse. Whereupon Crozier tried to eject him when a scuffle ensued and the intruder was cut. In a little while an infuriated crowd of these negro soldiers made a rush for Mr. Jacob Bowers, the supervisor, who was at work about the train. Thinking he was the man they were looking for it is possible that they would have dis patched him with their drawn sabres, but for the timely presence of Calvin Crozier. who came forward as soon as he heard the noise outside. lie ordered them to release Mr. Bowers, declaring that lie had defended the ladies. It was with some difficulty that these fellows were convinced that they did not have the right man; not until Crozier held up his knife and said, here's the proof in his blood. They had laid violent hands upon Mr. Bowers. Crozier was taken to the camp and submitted to a niock-trial before a drum-head court martial and sentenced and shot to death; five or seven bul'ets pierced the breast of this noble gentle man who fell in defence of woman and to save the life of a fellow man, "with out fear and without reproach!" The shallow grave into which his body was thrust just as it had fallen, was found to be too short, and we are told that some of the merciless wretches jumped upon the limbs to crush them into the hole. Throwing a little earth upon the body they double-quicked it to Prosperity where they took the train. This dread ful event occurred in the silence of the night; there were but one or two wit nesses to the sad scene apart from those who took part in the brutal work. The citizens knew nothing of the shocking occurrence until the next morning, wvhen the body was taken tip and the intquest held by Intendant Silas John stone, Esq. The body was then properly prepared for burial and followed to the grave by the citizens generaliy. The notorious Prince Rlivers, after wards in thre legislature, was in corn marnd of the squad that took Crozier's life, and we are informed that he of fered to get him off if he would say that1 he was not the man. To which Crozieri dlefiantly replied, unbind these hands and I'll show you what P'li do. The circumstance was reported to tIhe governor commianding, Perry, we believe, wvho ordered the arrest of the officer conmnanding, but with what re suilt wve have never known. It is to be regretted that no mono mnent marks the spot where repose the dust of this hero who is worthy of a niche among the noble (head and ai shaft that shall perpetuate his nanre forever! The following account is taken from the New berry Herald of September 33, "The most of our readers are, ere th is, in possession of the facts relating to the diabolical occurrences of last Frid(ay morning, which resulted in the killing or murder of M1r. Calvin Crozier, late a member of the 3d Kentucky Cavalry, under Morgan's comm and, by the 33d colored troops in command of Col. Trowvbridge. The facts as we hear them are these: "M\r. Crozier being a prisoner was just returning to his home in Texas and ar rived at this p)lace some time in the night of Thursd:ay, and had twvo young ladies under his care. A por~ tion of the colored 33d had been here several days waiting for the remainder, which got here Thnrsday evening. An obstruction on the track near the (depot supposed to be done by some of these colored troops, threw a p)ortion of the train ofi. Leaving the car for a short time and retunning, Mr. Crozier found a negro soldier in there ini such close. proximity to tire ladies that lie ordleredl him out, wvhich tire other in a nmost< violent manner refused to do. An at- , tercation ensued, in which the negro was cut in the back of the neck. HeI then left. Sometime after antd wvhile thre car~s weire being righted, a s<iuad~ of< negro soldiers caiie up under a ser geant in seareb of Crozier and, seizing bylm.eoistae, Mr. .lake Bowers, in charg in; 't re bands, threatened to shoot hi;terightmn however, prompt lappeared, arid declaring Bowers in nocent gave himself up. A part of the squad were for instantly shooting him, whiile others objected and insisted on taking him to headquarters, which was then done. "Thfle report t lien is thrat hre was taken before thre colonrel and acknowledged1 what he hrad done and t hat lhe would do tire samre again; and that he was then told Ire must die for it. He was then taken uinder strong guiardl a few yardls from camip and a hole beinrg dug ie was ordered to kneel. At this p)oint Mr. S. P.

Prof. Sligh called the meeting to order. After the minutes of the last meeting had been read, Mrs. Jane A. Long made an interesting and practical talk on English Grammar. This subject interested all present as was shown by the discussion. The opinion is general that grammar was brought into the school room-that is tec'inical grammar-too quickly; that children as a rule have no use for a text book until they have reached an ad vanced age in school life. It would be well if all teachers would carry out, in part at least, the ideas advanced by the different speakers. A paper on discipline was read by Arthur Kibler. He discussed briefly the ways he considers best to keep order in the school room. The old method of frequent and severe punish ment was condemned. All agree that the switch has had its day, and th at it should not be used only in the most aggravated cases. G ood methods, properly enforced, is the surest and best way of having a well governed_ school. It is a matter of sincere regret I that so miany of our teachers do a not attend the association. It is true e: that some of them may be prevented from coming, when they would gladly a attend. It is hard ly reasonable to sup- u pose, however, that, fully two-thirds s are kept away by sickness or othera causes. Indifference or want of inter est in teachers' work must too often be the cause. Those teachers who attend the asso ciation say that it is of benefit to them; p would it not be a benelit to all~ In the future let all teachers who are t really interested in the great work in a which they are engaged use every C eff'ort to make the association of New berry County one of the best in theb State. K. d NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR.
