On Monday night November 16th, a colored man by tne name of Robert Summers was somewat badly maimed en Mr. Jonn Easter! iu's place in the Fork of Edi-to by another colored man named William Carrion. It appears that Summers had been indulging a rather objectionable propensity of tak ing cotton without the owners permis sion. Carrion at last determined that he would bo on the look out for him. Ac cordingly, on tho night mentioned, as Summers was putting his hands into the barn and pulling out cotton, Car rion fired upon him. Summers thereupon beat a hasty retreat, forgetting however and leaving two or three of his fingers in tho barn, which wo think will never again bo engaged iu such an unlawful business. Tho Coming of the Great 8howr-^ ?~? On uoxt Wednesday our citizen^ will have an opportunity afforded them of seeing the greatest amusement en terprise of the age. On that day old John Robinson?who as a Manager has achieved a national reputation? will exhibit his great Worlds Exposi tion to tho citizens of Orangeburg and, the surrounding country. The well known reputation of this company is sufficient guarautce of its merit and magnitude. His arcnic per formers nro unexcelled; his is the only traveling aquurium in tho world, while j in addition to his many cages of rare wild animals, are special features such as the Giraffe, the Eland, the Rhino cerous, monster Sea Lions, Giant Afri can Ostnches.in fact.ovcry conceivable species of our great Creator's handi work. " No wonder it is that John Robinson is to day a millionure; the public are always rpudy to patronize true merit, and his great success is due to the fact that ho always promises to exhibit the best; and that his word has never I been broken t> the public. Remember the day the big show visits Orangeburg Wednesday, December the 2ud. James Jonos Esq. I It is with a sad heart that we chron iclc the demise of the above named esteemed citizen of Orangeburg, Mr Jones came from England to New York in 1821H In 1836 .he moved to Orangeburg, where he has lived ever since, leaving behind him nn enviable record as a good citizen. His nature was kind and charitable; his heart be ing ever open to relievo the necessities of the poor and afflicted. ; t?lUCh During the war he was the Confed erate soldiers friend, doing nil he could for the relief of tho eick, nnd contributing freely of his menus nnd energies for the aid nnd encouragement of those who were hnttling for the "Lost Cause." In 1844" he wont to Mix' o and iu fi ct under all. the various changes of lifo has always been found in the path of duty. In religiou Mr Joneswas'n Catholic, and in the exercise of his faith wa* firm and consistent. Ho was buried on Saturday November the *21si., Rev Father Volge performing the solemn services. At the time of his death he had just passed his G9ih birthday. To his l>o; caved rclutives we extend our >--yu. put hies. We know it is ratu ral to grieve for lost one*, but th? thought of the final triumph of the j good, should dry every tear, and re in ve every pang. Horrible MurdVr. On Sunday night about church hour n pist'.d shot was heard iu the vicinity of Bull & Scovills store. Mr. James Cannon, our ever watchful and effi cient town marshal, happening at the time to be near tho Court house square, immediately repaired to the spot. As he got in front of Bull nnd Scovills store, he saw the body of But lcr Gholson lying on the ground in a dying condition. His first object was to arrest tho murderer. Upon going up the street iu the direction of the Railroad,he found several cjloredmeu bringing Win. Auld, who committed the foul deed, back to the scene of the difficulty. But by this time a crowd of colored people had gathered, and Mr Cannon, who had heard several vio lent threats, wisely advised, a different course, und the guilty man was hur ried to the jail. It appears that Butler Gholson and his wife were walking down Russell street, when they saw William Auld sitting on Bull & Scovills steps. Iu sonic way a conversation sprung up between them, and before many words passed, Auld shot Gholson in the heart, from which of course he died in a very short time. Woman is said to have been at the bottom of tho difficulty. The murder caused great excitement. Gholson bore a good charnctor as a quiet nnd peaceable citizen. Dr. Dukes and Dr. M. Salley per formed n post-mortem examination. The Coroners inquest was held ever tho body on Monday morning, and the'verdict oftlie Jury was in substance that he camo to his death by a hall fired from n pistol iu the hands of Win. Auld.
