The bearing resulted io the discbarge of Muldrow, aod recommitment of Anderson for trial at the oext term of the Court of General Sessions io October.

Tbe wound in the arm is slighter than tbe others Tbe ones in the leg are causing tbe most paia. He was easier this morniog, and bis injuries arc not considered as serious as was at 5rst thought. There had boen some trouble between them some time ago, and bad feeling since. Mr. Evans is said to bave made threats, and Mr. Reasonorer was taking steps to have Evans put under bond wben the shooting took place. Evans is said to have fired firom bis bouse, about fifty yards distant as Reasonover was passing on tbe road Tbe latter is said to have bad a gun in the vehicle, as be antici? pated trouble, but did not bave time to use it.

Editor Daily Item : AT the regular quarterly meeting of the Sumter County Medical A830ciation, on Au? gust 12ib, the members discussed the recent epidemic of small-pox in Sumter County, and the relations of the State Board of Health to the contre! of epidemic disease? io tbe State. It was brought out during the discussion that the cities of the State, through their local Boards of Health, are enabled to cope with epidemic diseases be? cause of ?he city appropriations ; whereas the outlying country districts are placd at a disadvantage, because no adequate provision bas been trade by law for equipping tbe State Board of Health ucder whose juri-diction the country districts are. Our smallpox out? break gives an illustration. The Board of Health of the City of Sumter, in April last, by promptly directing systematic vaccination and doae quarantine, in a short time suc? ceeded in stamping out tbe disease, at an outlay of a little over $2,000, famished by the city government. Daring the prevalence of the epidemic several infected patients es? caped to ibe country ?nd became centres of infection there The City Board of Health had no authority to bring them h?ck, and there were no ocal boards of health in the several townships to deal with the maft?r. The State Board of Health bad no foods to use for the purpose The result is that, so day, we have cases of smallpox in Sum:er County, with the probability of tbe loath? some disease spreading io *n n n vaccin ?ted population ; and the City o? Snmier is Hubie to have a fresh case brought in from the country townships at any time. Io view rf these facts, the Association adopted the following resolutions : Resolved 1st. That the Sumter Couut) Medical Association, recognizing the im? portance of the work entrusted to the Stf.te Board of Health in repressing epidemic dis- 1 eases and io advancing sanitary conditions j* throughout the State, is of the opinion that the State Board of Hraith should be granted u ore extended po wera in organizing its woik in the country districts. Resolved 2d. That we respectfully urge upon the people of Sumter County, the im? portance of arousing an interest in the work of the State Board of Health, to the end tht. t we obtain through our representaiives in the State Legislature a more hearty support of the Board and the extension of its usefulness.

Organized Charity Notwitbstandinz the bot weather, twenty two ladies and gentlemen met in the Y. M C. ?. ball A? onda? at terr ooo and organized the Sumter Charitable Association. Mr. W. M. Graham was called to the chair and briefly explained tbe purpose of the meeting. An organization was effected by tbe election of tbe following officers : President-C. M Horst*, Jr. First Vice President-Miss Mari? Lee. Second Vice President-W. M. Graham. Secretary-Jno. M. Knight. Treasurer-Jno. E. Wbilden. Tbe city will be immediately canvassed for members by the following committee: Misses Marie Lee, Kate DeLorme, Julia Cuttioo, Kate Durant, Carrie Joye.

A. hall Wednesday, at 6 o'clock p. m. At an early day a second meeting of the Association will be called to perfect ibe or? ganization by the adopt on of proper rules and reeulatioos; and tbe appointment of necessary committees Tbe minimum mem? bership fee was placed at ten cents a moo tb, and it is boped that the Association may become a large one, as we know it must be a useful one in tbe cause of sweet charity. Protect the Country Districts Editor Daily Item : Allow me space, please to add something to what bas already appeared in The Item io regard to the necessity of legislative appro? priations to tbe State Board of Health, to be expended in preventing or curing epidemic diseases. No one can more fully appreciate than I, the fiiht so recently ended in this city against smallpox ; nor have a more constant apprehension of its return from the country, or its widespread prevalence throughout ail sections of the State A few dajs since, I wrote to Gov Ellerbe oo this subject, and received in rt ply the following letter from the Secretary of the State Board of Health, which needs no explanation : COLUMBIA. Aug. 19, 18?8. E. I. Reardon, Health Officer: Dear Sir: Your letter of the 15th inst, to His Excellency, Gov. W. H. Ellerbe bas been referred to me for consideration. If small? pox still prevails in any townships in Sumter County and you will designate the township, and send me the names of three persoos, one of whom is a practicing physician of repu tab.e standing, all residents cf the townships, I wiil appoint a locai Board of Health, and clothe thea: with the necessary authority to deal with, and stamp out this loathsome dis? ease. Yours truly, Ac, JAMES Erins, M D., Secretary State Board Heahb. It will not do to wait until the Legislature meets. If smallpox exists anywhere in tbe county, immediate steps should be token in every township to eradicate the disease by such regola lions as may be practicable in the way of treatment and quarantine. Vaccina? tion and disinfection should he promptly en? forced . The State Board of Health, created partic? ularly for the benefit of tbe country districts, gets two thousand dollars; and as an active organization is handicapped io every effort tor the lack of money. The City of Charleston appropriates from ten to fifteen thousand annually to ita locai board Surely tbe State B jard should be more generously supported by a Legislature composed largely of men from rural sections. The prosperity of ibe State is at stake; suppose an epidemic of smallpox should generally prevail and prohi? bition be laid on travel and trvffic? That would mean a loss of millions, which would fell on tbe country aa weil as on tbe towns* No crops moving, no goods comiog or going, it would mean stagnation to business, and ruin to macy; yet tb-t is just wbat a quar? antine against os would do, as New Orleans and other cities have experienced oo account cf yellow fever. lo conclusion, I bope to see a thoroughly organized Board of Health io every township. Intelligent men who are wiiiiug to serve can be found everywhere, and the Legislature should enact such laws as will enable them to do the work so necessary to accomplish.
