S|e l?la?cijnuin w? ^m?^m WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 1. His Heart Cat Open. A very ugly and filial stabbing affair is reported to have occurred in the western part of Darlington Coun? ty last Monday^ The particulars of the affair are given thus: Mr. Geo. Wind bam a young mau about IS years old, who lives un the plauta?i m of Mr J K. Windham, \\?m to Daiiiogtou with the latter's mules and wagon. AI?>og with him went two colored men who work ou tl.? same plantation. W hen they had finished up their business and got opon lilts wagon to start home. Ka bit Gandy, a colored man who also works oo Mr Windham's place, came np and said he was g in ?j to ride back with them. Young Windham objected bat Gandy, who was under the influ? ence of liquor, forced himself upon the wagon and refused to get elf, although Windham time and again commanded bim to do so. The dispute continued until they had gone several miles out of the : *wn of Darlington, when it came to blows and y euri-; Windham stabbed Gandy with a kn>fe. cu tiug^his heart io twain and killing him almost instant? ly. Windhatu and the two colored men drove the wa^on on borne with the dead body apon ir ?rrd, after putting up the o?ales, fl .rd without t? wor-i of inf-r mation to Mr. J K Windham a- to what had occurred The iir-t intima? tion Mr. Wtodharrj had of the fracas was that night wheo he went to look after hi?stock and found 'he dead negro on the wagon. George Windham and the two negroes who were with him are still at large.- Ffarence Messenger. - Ul? "?.?- -?g ABloody Riot m Augusta. AUGUSTA, Ga., lK-c 2~>.- [Special to Charleston News and Courier }-Christ mas wound up in Augusta with a bloody riot between whites and blacks, to which one negro was kiii- d, several wounded, aud two policemen were horribly beaten. The 6ght com m en ced at 3 o'clock this afternoon irr Dublin, io front of Brown's store, on Campbell street, when Policeman Craw? ford arrested a cou-.le of negroes for fighting Officer Crawford attempted to carry the negroes to the c>art house, when he was interfered with by a mob of negroes who swore that the negroes should not be carritd in. Policeman Walker William- quick!* went to Crawford's aid. tut i!:e two c S ce rs were overpowered and knocked down, ; -jd their pistols were taken from Them. Policeman Crawford's nose was broken and his h-ad badly mashed Uni er Wilttams's fac? was severely p u;; Jed and eat. Hut for having been knocked down Mr. Williams might have been killed by a hui ?et fired at bini by a negro in the crowd. Mr. Willie l? own rushed to thc scene, and Ondit,g trie policenen about t > Lj murdered by negroes, nui led his nistoi an i com? menced firing in the crowd, lie shot one negro in the stomach, and the wounded man turned and r?n away and bas not been seen since. The pooft? ers escaped from ihe wounded ofHcers. and soon a report was current th*t the two policemen hud been killed by riotous negroes. A white m 1/ was soon ?rgaiviz?d and ?hurried to th?* scene Before the crowd of whiles bad reached Dublin, 11'?.rv and Ci.ailie Collier, two brothers, the had? rs? f the o?gr?? gang, were arrested ano quiet iv carried to jail. Chief Twiggs and a det-ii of ?->;i;e were'soon on the Si ld and succeeded in arresting seven negree- ?ho u!t-d the policemen. I>y thi> time a mob ot whites had assembled, armed Tl e Crowd was ex-;?;J and was y;-lii;;g .'LyDch them! ki:i ?hem"' Chi? Twiggs feared bl0Gd>hrd, so he hurried his sereu prisoners into N>. 2 engine boase for temporary ;?afe k..; mg The crowd surrounded the building and demanded th^ boc'y of the negroes, bat of course, the police kept them oS Atlast the mob of whites, eager to g t - to the negroes, made oj; unsuccessful effort to force zn entrance to the build? ing. About 5 o'clock Chief Twiggs thought the prisoners should be re? moved to jail, a? the building tioy were ia was not /r ife, and if ;ii~y re? mained there they would be lynched Guarding each prisoner with two po? licemen, the chief Marted down i>'A-> tignac stree', running with the prs ;. ers for the jail, followed by the whit . mob. Tbs crowd had tort g< t more ihao fifty yards before Jvbn Peters, one of the turbulent negroes, was -ti t five time?and instantly krlled by a? know? white men it: the crowd, who took aim before th<y culled the rriggi r. At the corner of Call-- un and Washing? ton streets another negro, name un? known, w;ts a^o shot di wn The crowd, which possibly number d 500. followed the officers with their prisoners down t.? t e j.-?il and there dispersed, sa ti.-S i wi; h the result. Two young meo, Quinu an i Hardin, were arrested for inciting tL< riot. The military c >a panie? are pn : arc I and ready for service.

' u r i s M >un tain Hotel, seven miles distant, a.-.d the potting in of the -arre system of works in this city is agituri;,g peoph h< rc and is thought to be an assured and import? ant enterprise. A big part of tue cap? ital stock of ?80.000 has been pr-^n ised by mor.ied mon here and riie bal? ance can be raised with ?ut trouble A meeting of stockholders will be held next week and a party of pr >:m Deot citizens, among th- m - v. . ai fi the lower part of ti;-; State, will go ov<. r the proposed route on Saturday. Con gressman Perry and Ii F Perry, who are interested in the project, will give one hundred and fifty acres >f their beautiful Sansouci place, two u iles from the city, for a park, and \> Y Perry, a neted stock raiser and farmer of upper South Carolina, is DOW build? ing a race track on the same place, which he w;ll turu over to an associ tion for racing and fairs. This will be one of the main attractions for a road by there to Paris Mountain, aud it is further proposed by gentlemen of means to build another summer hotel ou the line of the route. Numerous small industries will spring up along th?? hue *ud thc building of I the line is expected to be the biggest i thing for this ci.'y tn years. An easy j grade up Paris Mountain can be secur ! ed tor the road, and Mr, Perry, who j owns most o/ the property, will give the i right of way fre?. It is thought that j the race track, with proper improve? ments, will be accepted by Northern turfaien as winter quarters fer race horses, and in the spring will be used for the spring meeting for races in the : ^i?uth. Any amount of outside money '?? can be pr t. cu red if necessary, as the j proj ct is regarded as a safe investment j tor capitalists - -Ntfs and Cmirirr. A Pension for BI rs. Davis. Ir is a singular fact thar the widow of j the late Jefferson Davis is legally en ! titled to a pension from the government. 1 He was a soldier of the M-xican war, and w iii ie he was excepted from the provisions of ?he bill gran fin g pensions for services in that struggle, (he dis? crimination does not extend to his widow As originally framed, that, bill did not contain a rule of exception on aceo-uut of participation i'i the rebel? lion, but before i's ?fia! passage the Republicans in>erte;l a clause to the effect that the Af' should not apply to 4 any person while under the political disabilities i ai posed by (he fourteenth I amendment to the Constitution." The 1 namber thus excepted did not exceed a hundred, and most of those subse- : queutly had their di-abilities removed, j and began to draw th ir pensions. In the eise of the few who refused to the ! iast r<> ?sk for pardon, it. has been de- ! ci led by the Pension Offi;e that their j widows have a right to the pensions, j and several such claims hive been allowed, including one submitted by i the widow of the Adjutant General of j The ('on ted era te army. Perhaps Mrs. Davis will not apply j for a pension, but as the untrer now stands, she can get it if she chooses to J : a.-k fjr it.-Si. L 'tu's Globe Democrat. ? Train Xe.
