At the corner of Polk and Franklin the negro clinched the officer and a scuffle ensued. It was impossible for Rawls to got his club out owing to hold the negro had on him, and he pulled out his pistol and struck him on the side of the head with it.

The journey was made In flat boats, and the party camped for several nights in the swamp. They found a deposit of decayed vegetable matter at least ten feet in depth and fully equal to the richest lands in the Okechobee region. The results were highly satisfactory, and the reclamation of the entire swump Is only a matter of time and capital. The party of which Mr. Carter has charge is surveying the swamp to determine the exact amount of area, which is supposed to be about 800,- 000 acres. SOUTH CAROLINA. Aiken is to have an artesian well. Tobacco culture is highly successful around Darlington. Dr. Robert H. Hope died at Rock Hill Friday, aged 73 years.

Meetings are being held all over the state almost daily, and largo crowds are attending. At Orangeburg William Bozard, who has been in jail, cnarged with murder, the killing of old Mr. Boyet, has been released on $3,000 bail. The Rev. T. R. English, pastor of the Presbyterian church at Yorkville, was made a D. D. at the recent commencement exercises of Davidson College. The grist mill which the Cheraw iron works has added to its business has proved a great success already. The mill can barely supply the local demand, though sixty or sixty-five bushels are ground daily.

The company devotes itself exclu sively to electric lighting, and now has in its well equipped station four dynamos in operation. At a meeting of the alliance of Orange burg county Friday, the following reso lutions were adopted: “Whereas, the proposed tariff schedule now pending to congress raises the tariff on cotton ties, and whereas, such discrimination is unjustly directed against the southern farmers, who alone use the article: Resolved, that a committee of three be appointed by tie chair to investigate the practicality of se curing some substitute for the tie.” A committee was appointed to carry out this resolution. At Bennettsville a long enmity has ex isted between Calvin Gray and his brother. William. The quarrel arose about a woman ’ in the employ of Calvin. The woman is said to be of not good moral character. She abandoned Calvin to go to William, whose wife gave her employment. Calvin got out a search warrant for some wearing apparel said to have been carried by the woman to William’s house. The quarrel took place on June 4, and Calvin was shot and has since died. William is in jail with his son, John, who has been charged with being an accessory. State Chairman James A. Hoyt has called a meeting of the state democratic executive committee, to be held on Wednes day, June 25, at 8 o’clock p. m., in the Carolina bank building, Columbia. Al though no reason for the meeting is given out, it is considered certain that tho ques tion of primary nominations for state offices will be considered. The correspondent of the Charleston News and Courier adds: "The Hampton outrage will be discussed. There is no doubt that the inaction of the committee under Tillman’s assault has aroused strong and general criticism, and that the democracy expect it to do some thing.” The directors of the state exchange of the farmers' alliance provided for bagging for every member of the alliance in the state at a me *ting held at Columbia on Tuesday afternoon. The purpose of the meeting wns to make arrangements for supplying -bagging for the present crop of cotton of tho alliance members. The state business agent was authorized to contract with large anti-jute firms for the necessary amount, which is expected to bs 2,000,000 yards. Any kind of substantial bagging, so it is not jute, will be taken. The board recom mends that neither new or second-hand Jute bagging be used by alliance members under any consideration. The purchase of bag ging is to be made on the same principle as other transactions of the state exchange. It is to be delivered iu installments from Aug. 15 to Nov. 15. At Spartanburg, Tuesdav, lightning struck the house of Mr. J. D. Steen, ex press agent, aud damaged it considerably. Mrs. Steen and three children and the cook were in the house at the time. The charge entered a front room and demolished a bu reau, and passed t a rear room and broke up a washstand. Mrs. Steen and the chil dren were in the rear room, all standing on the floor. They were considerably shooked, but not injured. The cook was in the base ment. She came up the steps after a little and said to Mrs. Steen: "I declare to gra cious, I jes put my head down iu my room, and I wasn’t standiu’ against a wall, nor nothin’. I don’t understan’it.” Mrs. Steen explained that it was a shock from lightning which had struck the house. On examina tion it was found that a part of a front tooth was broken off. Whether this was by the fall or the electricity is not known. One of the unfinished cottages at the Beaumont mill was also struck. The case which elicited the most public interest in the court of common pleas at Lancastei last week, was that of the state against Rochelle Cator, William Clyburn and Roxey Heunis. The two fir3t named, colored men, were charged with the murder of Gustavus Honnis, and the last named, tho wife of the murdered man, was charged as an accessory before the fact. The mur der was a most atrooious and brutal one, aud calculated to stir up public indignation to its highest pitch. This unfortunate man seems to have been killed by these two cruel negroes for no other purpose than to gain access to his wife; and one of them was with her after the killing, with her hus band’s blood fresh on his clothing. The result of the trial was that the two negroes were convicted of murder and sentenced to dsath, to be inflicted on the first Friday in August next. But there was a mistrial as to the woman. From all the circumstances, both before and after the trial, the public mind is led to the conclusion that the woman is guilty, and public feeling is run ning pretty high. GEORGIA POLITICS.

Jake Dart can do more for Brunswick in Atlanta than a dozen men. Send him up, by all means. Americus Times: The Macon Teteyraph is handling the Hardeman campaign with ability and discretion. Hardeman's candi dacy has produced a grubail swell of enthusi usntthat wifi emmr him id to the guberna torial chaff. Men can grow enthusiastic oyer such a democrat. On July 17 the confederate veterans of Terrell county will have a grand reunion and a big barf— b at Dawson. It is ex pected that Gov. Gordon, Hon. W. J. Northen. Hon.

The Athens Banner claims that Hon. J. T. Olive’s lieutenants are trying to induce his friends to boycott the paper beoauae it op poses him for congress. The Banner adds: "Mr. Walter Lowe, a Ledger reporter, tells us that Mr. Dan Lumpkin, a near connec tion and intimate friend to Mr. Olive, says that not only will the friends of that candi date in Oglethorpe refuse to take the Ban ner, but intend to boycott any house that advertises in our paper.” Athens Banner: We find a strong feeling among the visitors in favor of Tom Harde man for governor, but they all admit it will not be proper to have one brother governor and tho other treasurer. A gen tleman who Is on intimate terms with Hon. R. H. Hardeman says if Col. Tom Harde man continues in the gubernatorial race that he would not be a candidate for re election a9 treasurer. In this event it will be a close race between Northen and Harde man. It is reported that a prominent gen tleman and financier of North Georgia has decided to offer for treasurer in the event that CoL Tom Hardeman remains ia the field for governor. FOR GEORGIA FARMERS. Crops of all kinds are booming in Troup county. The crop prospect in Terrell county is ex ceedingly bright.

Daring the confederate war the inferior court of Meriwether county issued a lot of notes which passed freely at their face value. These notes of various denomina tions were all signed by Judge D. Ellis as treasurer. The first batch were printed in Greenville at the office of the Georgia Weekly, published by Peck and Lines. The paper was coarse and later Issues were printed by H. P. Hill & Cos. at Griffin. The paper used was very thin tissue paper, that soon wore out by frequent handling. A one dollar bill of this issue is before us dated July 23, 1862. It is No. 33. In the center is a good picture of Gen. Washing ton. Ou the right center margin is a dog guarding an iron safe. A steamboat under full head of steam adorns the upper left corner, while a corn field darky illustrates the left end. The bill is sent us by (.’apt. Willis T. Norris as a reminder of the days when Greenville did a good banking busi ness. Though mutilated, the old bill is valued as a curiosity. “That tired feeling” is entirely overcome by Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which gives a feel ing of buoyancy and strongth to the whole system.— Adv.
