The defense was represented 1 Sawyer and DePass of Union while < P. bims, of Spartanburg, conduct< the prosecution. The defendant attorneys asked that the case ogai i Drs. Cinder and Going be thrown 01 for want of evidence showing tin they neither aided or abetted in tl alleged assault and battery. The case occupied all the foreno) and each point wus hotly contest* ? in the examination of witnesses, 1 DePass and Sims, each of whi< would occasionally score a poii y against theother. Mr. Sims claim* that the doctors should be held, as was by their instructions that tl arrest was made, and that they hi y no right to make the arrest, as tl 0 woman only wished to choose tl physician that should do the vact nation, and had not said she wou not be vaccinated. The defense he that the doctors,-being members is the local board of health, and a re resentaiivo of the State Board Health, had the right to make tl I. arrest, but did not admit that tl ? doctors aided or abetted in an a o sault.

It lias the an- , \y peatanee of lieing the work of an iiic? n- ; [10 diary. It was an old tenant house, which , y had been used for some time as a phmded. house. The lire occ ured sum ? time late (o at night, and Mr. Miller nor any of hi,lfj family were awakened by it. The li st , lie knew of the lire was when he got up 0( next morning and saw the smoulder ng "r heap, of coals w hire the house had stood ') None i f the hands on the place had s? e.i it either. It is likely the lire was an elTort on-tits part of Some one to get Mr Miller and family out to it. so th it a robbery of the dwelling might lie < ffr.t- | en, iti'u povuuiy u more serious ure staitso eil. Some two months ago he lost anoth, id er house o< the same kind mid about ihc>d s.\mo distance, 200 yards from his dwvl)d limr, only on auotlier side of the Inm-e.
