WHOSE REPORT WAS CORRECT.
A friend in Amcricns, Trader date of Son-
day, writes ns as follows:
“In reading the Constitution and Sumter
Republican, I notice in the Eberhart hanging
cose the statement that she died easy, while
your paper states differently. For your bet
ter information on this I desire to state
that I have shown both reports to half a
dozen of the most intelligent persons present
at the hanging, and all givo me the assurance
that your report was the only correct one, and
that she struggled so terribly they could
hardly look at her.”
Our correspondent goe3 on to state that the
reason why the fact of the terrible struggles
of the convict having been suppressed was to
prevent the sheriff being blamed. It seems
that at the request of Susan Eberhart the rope
was slacked around her neck, and that it
slipped when she fell, thus preventing her
r.eck breaking and causing her to tuffer
frightfully. It appears to us that all the
blame that could have been placed upon the
sheriff would have been his kind-hear tod ness
in yielding to her request, and the public
would have readily forgiven him, if there was
anything to forgive.
The gentleman who reported tbe execution
for the Herald, sent us a very graphic and ad
mirable account—as noticeable for its vivid
description of the sad scene, as for its truth
fulness. It was, unquestionably, the most
interesting report of the execution sent from
Americas, and has attracted so much atten
tion. that the demand for the issue contain
ing it had not ceased up to yesterday morn
ing. All onr readers will, we are sure, unite
with ns in thanking “A. H. * for tbe very
able and even brilliant manner in which he
performed the sad duty imposed upon him.

A LARGE FIRE.
BURNING OF SIX WOODEN SHOPS
CN PEACHTREE STREET:
Ilnpiri Spread of tlie Flames.
Loss about Six Thousand
Dollars.
At about Ion minute* pa:t one o'clock, officer Hol
land, who had just lit his lamps acd taken a seat on a
bench, suddenly perceived a light arising from tbe
centre of a row of six framed buildings, situated on
Peachtree, opposite the jnnetion of that street with
Broad.
The fire seems to have originated in tbe shop occu
pied by a Mr. Davis, as a confectionary and toy
t islabliahment. Officer Holland immediately gave the
alarm, but although the fire engine* ■■
prompt in arriving at the scene, tbe dry, vroll seat
soned lumber which composed tbe buildings caught
with inconceivable rapidity, and in a few minutes the
entire row was in flames, lightning np the street for
blocks with their lurid glare.
There was, of course some delay in getting up steam
and as the wind was brisk it fsnned the flames, so that
when the first stream of water was brought to hear
tbs lire by So. 1 engine the shops were already too far
gone to be saved.
The second store to catch fire was that occupied by
A. Rich, and containing a miscellaneous stock. Then
followed tlio shop occupied by Mr. Brockman, in
with h vegetables, market produce, etc., were
sold.
Next went a liquor saloon by Mr. Fife; theu an
empty shop, and last of all a two story framed building
occupied by Mr. Guntz, furniture dealer.
By bard work the flyemen succeeded in keeping the
flames confined to the frame building a The windows
of the brick store north of the fire, occupied by Mr.
Terhunc, caught, but the flames were promptly ex
tinguished and the edifice saved. Os the south side
the large brick boose occupied by Gay, McCteaky
Co., adjoining Guntz’a furniture shop, was in 1mm
i.ent danger for some time, but two well directed
streams of water from Tallulah and No. 1, aided
its massive brick walls, kept the flames in check.
Notwitustanding the number of shops destroyed,
the loss, including tbe buildings, will not exceed six
thousand dollars, as the stocks were of small value, all
the dealers, being engaged in the retail business. At
this writing wc are unable to learn to whet extent,
soy, tbe losers were insured. The destruction of the
frame buildings will not bo a lose to the city, as,
conseqnenceof their inflammable material, they were
source of danger to tbe adjacent valuable brick build
ings.
As we go to press the fire le completely under cod
trol and two streams of water are playing upon tbe
blazing pd e * of lumber which cover the mte of the de
atroyed shops.

The iron bridge gave way with 20G persons, includ*
ing many women, who were witnessing baptism
Thirty-two dead were recovered. Twenty cf the
rescued wore injured, some fatally. It is feared that
others are under the ruins. Bodies were found six
miles bolow. Loss about ninety.
LATEB.
Every house in the city is ia mourning. Several of
the lnjared have died. Derricks are being erected to
lift the wreck. When the full loss of life has been as-
tertained, it is thought many persons from the coun
try around, not reported missing, will swell the loss
terribly. Tbe bridge was torn and broken, and
hangs from the piers, and Is an aspalling sight
in itself. At each end of tbe bridge men, women
and children were crushed into the shore, while
at the north end, where the loss of was
greatest, the bodies were actually held
firmly to the bottom of the river in a network iron.
Mrs. Daniel Scheney, who it was feared was fatally in
jured is now better. Charles Murray fractured a bone
of bis leg and collar bone, and received a severe flesh
wound, but is doing well this morning. Mrs Murray
is also comfortable and better. Mrs. Ella Campbell,
of Danetown, was severely injured, but is doing well.
There were feveral buggies on tbe bridge, but strange
to sty. no one in tbe vehicles were injured,
and the horses also escaped. William
Hillock's horse and wagon are still on the bridge
and food for the horse has to be carried to it.
Jacob Armstrong, jr., went down in the crash, and
was compelled to crawl on tbe bottom of the river to
get out from under the sidewalk of tbe bridge; but
being an athletic man, saved himself, and helped to,
rescue several. Charles' McBride saved many lives.
Colonsl H. J. Nole made a narrow escape; holield
Mrs. Smith’s little child and went down
with it, came up, and saved the little
girl, and barely saved himself. Mrs. Noble was sev
eral feet from her husband, but he could not reach her
in the fall, because there was a mass of human beings
between them.
Tony Brant, a boy of eight years, clung to a plank,
and was picked up safe half a mile below.
Edwar J Patrick leaped into the water aud saved sev
eral lives.
William Darly, with noble energy, 6aved many lives.
Among these was a woman on a plank whom he pushed
ashore. He then pulled off his coat and boots
and swam to Doctor Hoffman, who
was on tbe bar ba’f way to tbe railroad bridge,
and rescued hfin. Mr. Dsuniler saved several lives.
Fred L. Paw saved five or six persons. Henry Wood-
cut swam boldly into deep water and rescued many.
There were several bodies taken from the river as far
down as below the Railroad Bridge. The body of
Fred Hope was found floating near a mile down the
river this morning. All those reported missing are
probably in the net work of the bridge, at tbe bot
tom of the river. After night, through work
under the superintendence of J. C. Jacobs, of the
Illinois Central Railroad, who rendered much
assistance, the derrick wxa erected, and it is hoped by
this morning the iron work will be lifted, so that tbe
bodies can be recovered. It is feared that the extent
of the calamity is not yet learned, for there may bare
been many on the bridge from tbe country also, whoso
names had not been obtained.
When the bridge gave way most of the people
gathered at either end, though a large number
the centre, and some of the latter remained where
they were after the crash and were taken off in boats.
Several persons jumped from the precarious
resting; place and were drawn sshorc. Two
horses attached to a buggy were on the middls span
when the crash came, and remain there still, ms there
w ij of getting thorn off. There wers stJhie re
markable escapes of children, of whom there
probably not less than fifty on tbe bridge at the time.
One little fellow, aged thirteen-years, wag caught by
both feet ia the iron rigging in one of the spans, and
had bis leg broken; but he managed, by sheer
strength, to pull one of his boots off, and then
coolly and leisurely took out his pocket-knife
and ripped the other boot from his foot and swam
ashore. The bridgo, which was of iron—Trusdell
pattern—and of five spans, was elevated about twenty-
five feet above tbe river, which ia from fifteen to twen
ty-five feet deep.
Only the two end spans fell. The three middle
spans are standing, but in such a condition that it is
thought that they will fall when the wreckod spans
removed. Workmen are busy to-night pulling up the
Derrick in order to clear the wreck, and making ar
rangcmoiits to secure the bodies beneath.

Somebody is advertising a preparation
which, among olhor merits, ia warranted to
keep a lady’s hand free from chaps. Punch
knows another way to effect this. Let her

Dear Sir—In reply to your inquiry, I would
state that my opinion of PETERS’EUREKA
TANNING PROCESS may be inferred from
(he fact that I am now wearing a pair of
boots, the leather of which was tanned by
.hat process before tho same was perfected
and a patent obtained; that the said boots
have now been iu wear for the period of three
years—aro tho most pliable and easy to the
feet of any boot I ever wore, and are in a
good state of preservation yet.
