Reid of Mayesville, died last Sunday. Marcus Campbell, a colored man, about forty or fifty years old, died suddenly this morning in this town, An inquest was held, and a verdict rendered to the effect that the deceased came to his death from Convul? sions superinduced by over-eating after fasting for some time The patrons of the Sumter Post Office will doubtless be pleased to know that the mail closes at nine now instead of eight, as hereto ? fore. Onr readers will note by referring to the card of Lavan & Edwards that they have moved back to to their old stand where they ?will be-glad to serve their customers in the j most exquisite style that the tonsorial art j possesses. Messrs. Wilcox, Gibbs & Co., of Fertilizer j .fame, invite the attention of our readers to ; their goods.

"We are informed that a man named DeBer ry, from Timmonsville, made an attempt last j week to open a bar-room near the Depot. The j .citizens in that section of the town rebelled j against the movement, and in answer to a j petition sent ia by them, the Town Council j refused to grant the license. They have re- I solved to grant no mote licenses during the j term of their administration. "While it cannot be denied that a party j who conducts a licensed business under j Authority of law, has tiie right to make that j business known to those wishing to patronize j St, we can appreciate ti?e feelings of those who j .entertain a different seat?tneat, &ad are yet -obliged to daily to pass under the objection- i Able object, when io their opinion it is un-i ?necessarily protruded upon the public gare ! ns in the case of the whisky bartel elevated I upon a post at the corner of Maia and Liberty : ?ctreets i A newspaper, asea xdtestisiag medium, is '< valuable to proportion to the extent of tts cir- ! culation, and the character of its readers, j The Watchman and Seviiron is read ia every j section of the country tributary to Sumter, j &oth in and out ef Su?ter County, and ts i without doubt the best and cheapest adver- { tislng medium to be had. j The August* Chronicle aad Constitution- : alist i-s the oldest newspaper in the South, ' and perhaps the ?Sdest ta the United States, i having been established ia 1785.

The Sumter Literary Society. ? Ata recent meeting cf the Literary Society, j : resolutions were passed thanking Col. Earle j and hts wife for the use of their hall which j the Society used as a place of meeting during j ? the past Summer, and up to the meeting be- j ( fore the last. The Society is also indebted to j, them for the interest they have extended to ;1 make the Society a success, both for improve- j, ment and pleasure. jj The next meeting of the Society will be at j j the residence of Col. J. D. Graham, on next ! . Thursday evening. - ; ; The Maiden Trip. j1 The first train from Charleston to Manning ! 5 was run last night. We were informed yes- ! terday afternoon, by a railroad mau that by : 1 the middle of next month, the balance of the j1 unfinished road between Sumter and Manning : will be completed, and then trains will run i 1 directly from Charleston to this point. (A \ chance for a free ride-Sumter Light Infantry, ! have an eye to business.) Bellemonte Cotton Factory. ! \ Yesterday the boiler of the Bellemonte Cot- ? .ton Factory was successfully tested, working i | to the utmost satisfaction. Two or three ex- , j perienced factory hands are expected to ar- ; rive on the twelve o'clock train to-morrow j night, and in about tea days nine or ten more ? will come.

' : "The Two Orphans/' The Play of the "Two Orphans," aa pre? sented by Pauline Markham's Fifth Avenue Company, last Saturday night, was quite a success, although the stage facilities necessi- j tated one whole act (the garden scene) to be j omitted. Miss Markham's personation of the Blind Louise was certainly "beautifully perfect," so much so, that many lost sight of the fact that it was only a play, and their hearts were so moved in commiseration for the sup? posed sufferings of the Blind Orphan that tears trickled involuntarily down the cheeks of both the ladies and gentlemen ; and when the curtains finally dropped, at the close of the last act, it was a relief to have the spell broken, which Miss Markham's genuine dra? matic skill was capable of holding through? out the entire play. Miss Markham is unquestionably a charm? ing woman, and as the Blind Louise, ber face is a/ac simile of what we conceive to be true i "blind innocence." The play, although cot short in many in-J stances, was well rendered, every one acting their respective parts in a measure that reflects ; credit on every individual effort. j -. ? iTwi : Our North Carolina neighbors seem to have j been disappointed in their expecations of the receDt presentation of the ?'Two Orphans." The Review says :-A large, and we \ imagine, disappointed audience were gathered j i at the Opera House last evening to witness I , the rendition of the above named play in a j grossly emasculated shape. The play-all j that was given-was good-the acting on- j 1 usually fine, but it was so badly cut that ? : only about one half of the play was given. \ j The audience paid their money to see the j play-not a part, but the whole of il-but j1 they only witnessed a little more than four j ] out of the seven acts in the piece. The actors j ? had not the lame excuse of a poor house, for j ] it was crowded. . I i i The Star says;-The way the Pauline j ( Markham troupe treated their large audience i , Friday night was the subject of pretty general ? ' comment and condemnation yesterday. j 1 The Charlotte Observer gives the Pauline j * Markham crowd fits. They played in Char- ? ] lotte on Thursday night and served the Char- ! , lottese just about as they did the Wilmicgto- j nians. 1 MAY?SVILLE ITEMS. j { -o- jj None of our merchants have been closed out i , yet. They all seem to be willing to risk ; j another year. Some are quite hopeful, and j j predict that we will have a good crop. : e Four dwelling bouses are being built by j 1 Mr. Ch mdler. They are rented before the j 1 roof is put on. Improvement is the watch- ; 1 word. ! 1 Capt. Atkins, one of our most staunch citi- : 1 zens bas beeu having his engine overhauled. : s The work was done in Columbia. He is now c ready to do more and better work than ever ? before. i a The evenings are so warm that we have been 1 serenaded regularly by the frogs in the neigh- . boring ponds. j , The Presbyterian Church held i meeting yesterday to pass som< resolutions in regard j to the death of their lamented pastor, Rev. Jas. j ^ Cousar, and to take steps toward calling ^ another pastor. ; ~ ; e Old farmerstell us the oat crop is looking ^ better th*? they ever saw at this season. , They give every prospect of yielding an abun- j dan t harvest. ZULU. Destructive Flood in Tennessee. j - CINCINNATI, January 21.-A special ? ^ from Clarks ville, Tenn., says the Oura- j ' berland is six iocbes above tbe great j * rise of 1S47, and is still rising. The ; - water weeks' pumping house is six feet j a under water. All trains on railways : c South from Clarksville are discontinued, j * The city bridge over Red river is sub- , * merged, and all the mills and factories j 5 on Front street are covered with water, j J Great damage is feared. j * CINCINNATI, Jan. 21.-A Nashville v special to the Times-Star says the rain : r yesterday and last night raised the river ! ' 12 inches. Backwater now extends J over three thousand acres in the city ; ^ limits. The Tennessee river, at John- ! " gonville, is 10 miles wide and all rail- | <? road communication with Memphis is | f cut off. Large quantities of lumber are : t floating away from lumber yards. j c A Nashville special of the 21st ia instant, says : A great deal of suffering | prevails among the unfortunate who * have been driven from their homes by ! v the high water. Many are sick from j1 exposure, and more will yet have to be i v sent to the hospital if the wet continues, j1 The Ladies' Relief Society furnished ; fa provisions to 550 families, averaging j81 from five to eleven souls each. It ;t is estimated that not less than 3,000 i people had to be fed, and this number ; is likely to increase on a further rise of j h che river. An expanse often miles in j * md around Nashvile is covered with i h svater. Most of the sufferers in the j > 2ity are negroes, who ocupied the great- I ir portion of the lower part of the city. ? t As many as eight or ten, in places, now b accupy one room together."

WASHINGTON, January 21.-In the Guiteau trial to-day at an intimation from Judge Cox, the prisoner carefully arranged his glasses, and, with a flour? ish, began to read from manuscript as follows ; The prosecution pretends that I am wicked, Mr. Scoville and Mr. Reed think I am a lunatic, and, I pre? sume, you think I am-I certaioly was a lunatic on July 2d when I fired on the Presideut and the American people generally-and, I presume you think I was. Can you imagine anything more insane thaa my going to that depot and shooting the President of the United States ? You are here to say whether I was sane or insane at the moment when I fired that shot. You have nothing to do with my condition before or since that shot was fired. You must say by your verdict sane or insane at the moment the shot was fired. If you you have any doubt of my sanity at the moment, you must give mc the benefit of that doubt and acquit. That is if you have any doubt whether I fired that shot or as the ageut of the Diety. If I fired it on my own account, I was sane. Tf I fired it supposiog myself the agent of the Diety, I was insane and you must acquit. This is the law as given in a recent decision of the New York Court of Appeals It revolutionizes old rules and is a grand step forward in thc law of insanity. It is worthy of this age of railroads, electricity and tele? phones, and it well comes from the pro? gressive State of New York. I have no hesitation in saying that it is a spe :ial Providence in roy favor and I ask this Court and jury to so consider it. Some of the best people in America, uhiok me the greatest man of this agc, md this feeling is growing. They be ieve in ray inspiration, and that Pro- ; ridence and I have really saved the cation another war. My speech, set- j ing forth in detail my defence, was . elegraphed on Sunday to all the lead ng papers and published on Monday norning, and now I am permitted by ns Honor to delivcr.it to you." As he .eached that point 'I have always serv- i ;d the Lord, and whether I live or die.' . ie broke down, completely stopped, : ried to choke down a rising lump in j ns throat, but found it impossible to ; jeep back a genuine sob. Taking out his I landkcrcheif, he buried his face in it for i few seconds, wiped his eyes, and with letermined efforts went on again. Mrs : scoville was deeptly affected, and wept: md sobbed bitterly for some minutes Railroad Collision Vico Passenger Trains Jlcet on the Charleston and Savannah Railroad. \ CHARLESTON, January 21.-Thc \ southern bound passcoger train and thc sorthern bound passenger train collid d this morning, at. a point 27 miles ; rom Charleston. Both trains were run- j ting at full speed, and the engiues and nail cars were totally wrecked. Mail j Ygent H. A. Fox was killed-his head ! wing crushed.

Both trains were under j rders to meet and pass each other at j Adam's Run Station, but thc Northern ? lound train, for some reason not stated, | ame on before the other train arrived, j nd a collision resulted. Mr. H. L. Piokney, the condoctor of train j ?0. 43 of the Charleston and Savannah Rail- I fay Company, was visited by a Reporter of j he News and Courier on last Sunday, and j ras interviewed as to tbe causes leading t> the accident.
