The following telegram was received yesterday afternoon : Ooonee Riven, April 6.—Bridge all right. All trains can pass over. Notify both papers to-night, so that notice can appear in to morrow morning’s issne. S. K. Johnson, Superintendent. The first train, freight, passed over the bridge at 8:45, p. m. All trains will run on schedule time between Augusta uud Atlanta to-day. The Macon Telegraph and Messenger has the following to say about the bridge on the Ocmulgee river : Another span of the Macon and Au gusta bridge went down at 9 o’clock ni xht before last, and being the middle span, it fell into the deep current of the stream and was carried off. The other span still remains, and is likely to re main. The work of rebuilding this bridge, we are informed, will be com menced at once. In the meantime, trains over the road will run regularly between Camak and Milledgeville. Between Milledgeville and Macon the Central Road will have to be used. AN RXCITINU AI>VENTURI! IN (HilJi. THORPE. Narrow Escapesf Hulirilor-Urut-ral l.utnkin. On last Sunday, Mr. Samuel Lumkin, Solicitor-General of the Northern Cir cuit, while in his buggy going from Lexington to Washington, drove into the Buffalo Creek ford, and, to his great surprise, found it about ten feet deep. The current was very strong, and car ried the horse and buggy rapidly down st earn. The buggy sank and Mr. Lum kin and his driver had to leave it and Hwim for their lives. The former was encumbered with a heavy overcoat and overshoes, but succeeded in reaching a raft about sixty feet below. He clung to this, but the enrrent swept him under it, and bis life was in imminent danger. The horse and buggy were coming jnst behind him, and if either had struck him he would certuiuly have been car ried nnder the raft and drowned, but just before the horse reached him the servant, who had previou ly reached the raft, gave Mr, Lumkin a pull, whioh, with his own exertion, raised him on the raft jnst in timo to save him from the fast coming horse. Mr. Lumkin then reached over and cut the harness and released the horse, who struggled under the raft and was drowned. The two men then remained ou the raft till assistance came and they were takeu to the house of Mr. It. D. Johnson. The buggy was considerably injured, and Mr. Lumkin lost several articles of pro perty that were in it. It iswxoeedingly fortunate for him that the adventure did not terminate far more seriously. A It elio op the Past.— Looking over the old records of the Superior Court of Richmond county yesterday we found, among other things, in the minutes of 1791, a rule from the Solicitor-General against the Sheriff of Burke county. It sets fortli that ou the Ist of March, 1791, one Wm. Allen Benton, of said Burke county, was sentenced to pay a tine of one hundred pounds, or in de fault theroof to receive one hundred lashes; that the Solicitor had informa tion that said fine had net been paid, and that the said Sheriff had proceeded to administer the alternative in the follow ing manner: Stopping in front of the house of Bouton, in Waynesboro, he struck said Benton, who hud on a great coat, several light blows with a small switch, the greater portion of the blows falling ou the coat tails; that Benton, the Sheriff and others appeared to be in a tnerry humor; that afterwards.tlie party adjourned to the house of the party who informed the Solicitor and took a drink of grog together, ‘‘with great cheerful ness.” The Court direeted the Sheriff to make n return of his actings and do ings in the premises at the next term of the Court, but nothing appears in any subsequent minutes in reference to the matter. An Important Law. —The Legisla ture at its recent session passed an act, of which the following is a synopsis, that is very important to Ordinaries, County Treasurers, Clerks of the Su perior Court and Sheriffs : Section 1 requires these officers to make to the grand jury, on the first day of each term of the Superior Court, a full statemeut of the amount of money received by them belonging to their county, the source from whence it came, and also their expenditures, with proper vouchers Section 2 provides that when such re turns shall have been made, it shall be the duty of the graud jury, if fonud cor rect, to endorse their approval thereon, attach the same to their presentment, aud they are to be entered ou the min utes of the Superior Court. If found incorrect, the officer to be notified of the same specifically, and requiring him to explain the errors oomplaiued of. Section 3 provides that should any of lioer fail or refuse to make such return he shall be liable to be attached for con tempt. The Augusta Bridge. —The entire foree of the Macon aud Augusta and Georgia Railroads will this morning com mence the reconstruction of the bridge over the Ocmulgee, and if nothing oc curs to impede the progress of the work, it is safe to say that by the end of next week trains will run overthe new bridge. This looks like a stupendous work to be doue iD so short a time; but with the immense resources of the roads directly interested,* aud with an adequate force of skilled bridge builders at hand, and with Mr. $, K. Johusou—one of the most industrious aud successful rail road superintendents in the oountry—to urge forward the work, a much more formidable task might be accomplished iu the same length of time. The supervisors of both roads will be present to see that the work is done properly and with due speed.— Macon Telegraph and Messenger, April 8. Good Advice About Kerosine. —Coal oil will not explode on very slight pro vocation. The tri üble is not iu the oil itself, but iu the gas which rises from it, amj the oil is dangerous or safe in pro portion to the amount of gas it gives oft There is A “fire test” standard for deter mining the relative safety of the illumi nating oils offend in the market, and everything under lit) degrees fire test is considered unsafe. Threg simple rules, if faithfully observed, will make coal oil its safe as gas. Buy from a 1001*011801 whom you can depend on for heviug the oil he sella properly tested, keep the oil in vour lamp above the middle of the chamber, and be sure that the wick fills *ll the channel designed for it. Then von can carry the lamp wound the house, blow down the chimney, or do anything else yon please with it; yonr only remaining chance of becoming a martyr to kerosine is to attempt to “help” tbe kitchen fir* with it. That seldom fails. As Amusing Scene. — A couple from tbe country came to the city yesterday, procured a license aud were married in due form. They left on the afternoon train for home. They attraaind the at tention of every passenger by fhmr lavisu display of affection. The young man kept his arm tight around the bride’s waiat as if he was afraid she would vanish before he knew it, and sha didn’t seem to care if he hugged her right along for half a day. She was so terribly homely that everybody wonder ed how he could love her, and by and by he seemed to think that an explana tion would be in order. He borrowed a chew of tobacco of a man near the door and remarked: “I’m going to hug that girl all the way home, though I know she isn’t party.” “I wouldn’t," briefly replied the man. “And that’s where you’d fool your self,” continued the young man. “When I’m hogging a hundred acres of clean, nice land, with forty head of stock on it, I can make tbe homeliest girl in the world look like an angel to mex” Excursion to Savannah. —An excur sion train will leave this city for Savan nah by the Central Railroad on Satur day, the 29th inst., at 9 p. m., and re turning, leave Savannah on Snnday the 30tb, at 9 p. m., thus enabling persons to be present at the imposing ceremonies of the dedication of the new Cathedral. Fare for tbe round trip, $2. rj THE STATE. THE PEOPLE AND THE PAPERS Friday’s Items. C&rnesville is growing and flourishing despite the hard times. Tie Kimball Houae is to be sold undei decree of the United States Court. Several hundred negroes have emigre ted West from the vieinity of Newnau. Ample preparations are being made to reoeive visitors at Tocoa Falls this Summer. The Georgia Paper Mills in Carroll county are advertised to be sold at sher iff’s sale. Hob. Thomas Crymes is the sole editor of that sterling paper, the North Georgia Herald. The McDuffie Journal, with its usual good judgment, pronounces against in dependent candidates. The Atlanta Constitution asks who will speak for Georgia at the Centen nial? Well—there’s Lochraae. The Constitution warmly endorses the administration of Judge R. H. Clark as Judge of the City Court of Atlanta. One more unfortunate. The Henry County Ledger lias suspended and James’ banner has fallen in the dost. The county taxes of McDuffie county last year amonnted to over nine thous and dollars, and were promptly collected. Macon ia trying to organize a Young Men’s Christian Association. We know of no more inviting field for Christian work. Southwestern stock sold in Savannah last Tuesday at 75, Georgia Central at 41 and a long date Savannah city bond at 87*. Lincoln county has had a successful Sabbath School Convention, conducted by State Evangelist Boykin and Rev. L. B. Fish. Mr. John H. James has tendered the nse of his Hall to the ladies who are going from Thomson on an excursion to Atlanta. A colored man in Atlanta who attempt ed to miscegenate with a white woman will probably liave a reception at the coroner’s. A eolored man named Pepper, who waa born in Maoon, ia now practicing law in Logan, Ohio, and apparently doing well. The Warrenton Clipper and the Car tersville Express are published monthly —at least, they reach this office about once a month, Savannah has forwarded a petition to Congress askiDg the repeal of the bank rupt law. It was signed by nearly every business man in the city. They have canght a number of boose breakers in Rome. There was a well organized band beaded by Hayward Grant, a Northern negro. Isaac Russell, a Justice of the Peace in Savannah, has been fonnd guilty of malpractice in office, and recommended to the extreme mercy of the Court. Messrs. Dnke and Potts, after quar reling duriDg one entire session of the Legislature, have opened their batteries anew npon each other in savage style. The Atlanta Constitution publishes an able and lengthy defense of Mr. B. H. Hill. Is any defense necessary ? The people seem to be satisfied with his course, and that is sufficient. A touching article in the Savannah News announces the death of “Little Lynette,” the bright and beautiful daughter of Mr. B. H. Richardson, city editor of that paper. We condole with our brother in his affliction. A gentleman in Savannah, who talks in his sleep, used some language the other night that aroused both his wife and her suspicions and caused him to look next morning as if he had washed his face with a nutmeg grater. The Directors of the Direot Trade Union have resolved to bring the decis ion of Jndge Hall as to the unconstitu tionality of the charter granted by the Legislature to their corporation before he Supreme Court at an early day. The North Georgia Herald wisely condemns the legislation which has throttled business in Georgia since the war by giving men opportunity to de fraud their creditors. The Herald wishes to come back to honest legisla tion. And still the silvery strains of the aerial orchestra have not been heard in the land. All night have the roses not heard the flute, violin, bassoon ; nor has the casement jessamine stirred to the dancers dancing in time ; till a silence fell with the waking bird, and a hnsh with the setting moon. Died in Georgia: Joseph Florence, of Lincoln oounty; Thomas Kenan, of Walton county; the daughter of Capt. Jno. L. Goodrich, of Bearing; Wm. Hambrick, of Macon; Mrs. Warren Stowe, of Frankliu county; J. M. Glass, of Griffin; the daughter of Mr. E. D. Riggins, of Pike county. Warrenton Clipper on the Solicitor- General of the Augusta Circuit: “ Mr. Jackson makes no effort at oratory, does not mount any flying Pegassus and soar into the fields of Elysian space in search of metaphor and allegory, but deals in hard-pan facts and succinct reasoning that falls like iron shot on the fortifica tions of his opponents.” We mention in this connection that Mr. Ham has engagements for six St. Patrick’s speeches. At a meeting of the Democratic party of Gwinnett county, held April 4th, the following resolution was unanimously adopted: Resolved, That the course of Hon. B. H. Hill, our immediate repre sentative in the Congress of the United States, meetß our hearty, unanimous and unqualified endorsement—that his eloquent and triumphant vindication of our people, and the truth of history against the mendacious assaults of those who maliciously traduce us, entitles him to the thanks of every true Southron. The Lumpkin Independent says : Fears about the destruction of the peach crop are not to be fully realized. Since the recent rains we have had some comparatively warm sunshine, and the buds on many trees we thought dead have opened and the prospects for this delioious frnit are not as bad as we thought they would be. While the fiuit of many trees has been killed, yet from appearance now we will have plenty this year, that is if we have no more freezes like the one of last week. Saturday's Items. The Snperior Court of Warren connty is in session this week. The Chattahoochee river only rose fifty feet in Coiambus during the re cent freshet. Columbns is convulsed about the erection of the Confederate monament. Put it to a vote. “ Bntton parties” are the rage in Dawson. A good many are on and are sure to come off. Col. A. D. Hammond, of Monroe, is a oentennial candidate for Congress in the Fifth District. The Waynesboro Expositor is fearless and prouonnoed in its opposition to whispering in church. One hundred convicts are now at work on the Marietta and North Georgia Railroad, and one hundred more are ex peoted. The Oounty Solicitor of Bnrke county had a desperate euoounter with a vicious osw the other day. The kine was not injured. The Dawsou Journal proposes “ three cheers for John H. James.” Mr. James would prefer one cheer in the Governor’s mansion. The Atlanta Times, while not fully endorsing everything Mr. Hill has said j in Congress, declares he has spoken onlv tlm truth. Griffin Lamps itself over the capture of a beaver, tiuudfeds of beavers are j brought to the Augusta market every' spring for sale. Tbe Atlanta Times thinks the recent j homestead decision of the Supreme Court will york mischief to the poor j men of tbe State. A prominent candidate for the gallows placed a bar of iron across the track of the Georgia Railroad, near Kirkwood, the .other day. No damage done. The handsome residence of Col. M. P. Greene, situated in Burke county, near Green’s Cut, was totally destroyed by fire tbe other sight. Incendiary.' A communicated signed “Sleepv Hollow* - ?nd giving the Atlanta Consti tution fits appears in the Rome Com mercial. It smacks a little of Jndge A. R. Wright, Mr. Metcalf, a Pittsburgh manufac turer of cutlery, says the Georgia and Alabama ore is as valuable for making cutlery as the Sweedish ore, hitherto exclusively used. OoL R. L. Mott, ol Columbns, claims that he did not attend the recent Mott ley Republican meeting in Atlanta. We did’nt think the old man was that sort of a conundrum. Ex-Governor Brown says the recent homestead decision of the Supreme Coart should act be headed “joy to the people,” but “joy to the bankers and brokers and capitalists.’* The Onthbert Messenger repels with indignation the Borne Courier's charge that the members of the Georgia Legis lature are “mostly broad-mouthed, flop eared jackasses especially the Senate.” The orphan child of D. F. Mills, late editor of the North Georgia Herald, it is said, will receive two thousand dol lars from the Knights of Honor, a so ciety of which he very recently became a member. The Rabun Gap, or rather Blue Ridge Railroad scheme is reviving a little, and a meetingyof its friends will be held ia Charleston next month. It would be a very valuable road to Georgia and South Carolina. The Columbus Enquirer claims to be the oldest paper in Georgia, “with the exception, perhaps, of the Angnsta Chronicle. The Chronicle and Sen tinel was born in 1785. When were you boro, Mr. Enquirerf They have had a fierce fight in For syth over a movement to pnt an organ in a Methodist Snnday school. The organ men carried their point by one vote, but finally yielded, and gave the objectionable instrument np. The Oglethorpe College property was sold nnder decree by the Sheriff of Ful ton connty last Tneeday. It brought fair prices, aggregating some $15,000, which is more than it cost. The city of Atlanta boaght the main building for school purposes. Rome Courier: We want it distinctly understood that we Bball vote for no man for the Legislature who will not pledge himself to the call of a Constitu tional Convention, the removal of the capital back to Milledgeville and the abolition of the hnmbug bureaus. F. E. G. Lyudsay, of Abigdon, Va., a gentleman well known to the Georgia press, has made Ham, of the Warrenton Clipper, bis State agent for the sale of Egyptian rabbits, African canaries and other rare birds and animals. Orders addressed to Warrenton will be prompt ly filled. The Rome Courier says that the raft ings of saw logs down the Oostanaula and Coosawatcbee river since they have been cleared ont by the Government has become a considerable business. It hopes; soon to see the Etowah river cleaned out np to Dnhlonega, and the Coosa down to Mobile. The law now requires mortgages on real and personal property to be recor ded in thirty days instead of three months. Mortgage on personalty must be recorded in the county when the property at the time of the execution of the mortagage is out of the connty of the mortgagor’s residence, also in the county of his residence. The railroad officials from all parts of the South, including Gens. Alexander and Mcßae, Cols. Foreacre, Powers and Rogers, Messrs. Meek, Dunbar, Peck and others, have departed home ward, from Atlanta. They failed to make anew Centennial Time Table, as anticipated, by which some ten or fifteen hours could be saved. Athens Watchman: It will be re membered by onr readers that months ago we expressed a preference for Sen ator Bayard as the Democratic candidate for the Presidency. We have carefully watched the indications of public senti ment since, as exhibited by the tone of the press ; we have read and dispas sionately weighed whatever we have seen in favor of other gentlemen, and have, so far, seen nothing to cause us to change our original opinion that he is not only the most “ available can didate,” but that he is by long odds the best man named for that high honor. From the South, even as low as Florida, we learn, through the Albany News, Brunswick Appeal, Dawson Journal, Sumter Republican, Fort Valley Mirror, Houston Journal, and other exchanges, that the fruit crop is destroyed or greatly injured, and that forward wheat and oats are also hurt. Through Middle and Upper Georgia, the Washington Gazette, Sparta Times, Greenesboro Herald, Covington Enter prisei, Newnan Blade and Herald, La- Graoge Reporter, Marietta Jouriial, Cartersville Express, Dalton Citizen and other papers, report damages to frnit but not total destruction—the same of early wheat. In all sections forward corn is to be replanted. Some report half crop of fruit, some one-fourth, and some three-fourths. But the end is not yet. Sunday’s Items. Greene county has a debt of $5,312. The Oglethorpe Echo comes out squarely for Bayard. Next. 4 An infant child of Mrs. Hargy, of Clin toD, was bnrned to a crisp last Thursday. A number of colored people have emi grated from Coweta county to the West. The Greenesboro Home Journal doubts the wisdom of the recent home stead decision of the Supreme Court. The schedule of Cook & Cheek shows that they borrowed over $190,000 from the first of January to the Bth of March. A bale of fine cotton raised by Chand ler Terry, of Elbert county, will be ex bibited at the Centennial by Franklin & Whitney,.of this city. The shrunken calves of the Columbus calves quivered with joy when the an nouncement was made that knee breeches would not be worn at the Lady Washington party. Since January first, L. W. Barrett, of Dalton, has handled the skins of 2,000 oows, 4,000 possums, 1,000 muskrats, 400 minks, 50 wild cats, 25 otters, 125 deers and 100 beavers. The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel says: “The wily Kimballvillians sell cows at S2O and S4O and distend the an imals’ bags by allowing three days’ milk to accumulate.” Isn’t that an ud derly fraudulent practice ? After a lively fight (except upon the Mayor) the following ticket lias been elected in Greenesboro: For Mayoi: W. M. Weaver (without opposition). Aider man: J. H. Wood, W. H. Branch, J. E. Barnhart and J. A. Griffin. Mr. John A. Smith, of Troupe county, has three crops of cotton on hand, and has corn enough to run his farm with till Christmas. Mr. Smith does not buy anything on credit, and of course all the merchants are anxious to sell to him. The Irwinton Southerner says that Gov. Smith ordered Sheriff Evans, of Wilkinson county, to strengthen his bond, but he declined to do so, and an other election has been ordered, but the people propose to re-elect Sheriff Evans. The bridge at Fort Gaines, on the Chattahoochee river, was washed away Wednesday. This was a wagon bridge, and said to have been the finest struc ture on the river. It was originally built and owned by a company, bat they sold it to the Central Railroad, Thirty men in Coweta connty stood as follows on the Gubernatorial ques tion: Eleven are for Judge Warner, sev en for Gen. Colquitt, three for ex-Gov ernor Johnson, three for Gen. Gartrell, two for Gov. Smith, two for Col. Harde man, one for J. H. James, and one for ex-Governor Jenkins. Oglethorpe Echo: Mr. John M. Wei gle, one of the finest job printers in the South, has accepted a position in the Chronicle and Sentinel office. We have known Mr. W. for years, and a more perfect, high-toned gentleman never lived. We congratulate the proprietors of that sterling journal upon securing so valuable an acquisition to their mechani cal ranks. Bainbridge Democrat: Mr. E. H. Pnghc has become one ot the proprie tors of the Augusta Constitutionalist. When it is remembered that this Pughe was the editor of the National Repub lican during Bullock’s regime, it is natural to suppose that the Constitu tionalist will be immensely popular with the people of Georgia. We’ve a good mind to apply for an agency to solicit subscriptions on commission. Gainesville Eagle: Mr. Geo. W. Nor man, the gentlemanly traveling agent of the Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel, has been in the city this week soliciting sabscriptioua. He got a considerable number of subscribers here, and we wish he had received a hundred. The old Chronicle and Sentinel was many years ago very popular in this section, and we feel certain the present management will not find it difficult to reintroduce it. Emery Speer, solicitor general of the Western Circuit, has resigned, and Albert L. Mitchell, resigned as Jndge of the County Court of Clark connty, appoin ted to the vacated solieitorship. C. H. Andrews has been re-appoiuted Judge of the Connty Gourt of Morgan county.— W. T.Yan Dozer has been re-appoi uted Jndge of the Connty Court of Elbert county. Jas. B. Park, P. W. Printup and Baldwin Copeland has been appoin ted Commissioners of Roads and Rev enues for tbe county of Greene. LaGrange Reporter: The weekly pa pers of Georgia are publishing letters from Washington, furnished free, by one A. F< Boyle. Mr. Boyle offered to write letters to tbe Reporter gratis, and for a little while we'could not understand his generosity. A closer examination of his letter, however, showed that it was written to advocate in an insiduous man ner the nomination of Tilden for Presi dent. Now we do not believe onr State contemporaries are in favor of Tilden, and we respectfully suggest to them the propriety of expurgating their Boyle letters before publication. Boyle is evi dently in the pay of Tilden. At Macon, says the Atlanta Common wealth, a poftipa of the M. and A. Rail road bridge over the Opmulgee river is gone. Just before it gave way the train going to Angnsta on that road reached the bridge, and the engineer brought the train to a halt, and be and tbe conductor consulted as to whether they should attempt 'to cross or not. They decided not to, but tbe supervisor of the road said: “Cross," there was no danger. The conductor still hesitated, and the supervisor Walked ont upon the trestle to examipe it, whereupon it gave way, and precipitated him irto the river, from which he was rescued with con siderable difficulty. Walhalla jail has been filling up re cently. SOUTH CAROLINA.. PALMETTO NEWS LEAVES. How would General Johnson Hagood do for the Centennial candidate for Gov ernor of South Carolina ? The Charleston News and Courier has not been received for several daya. What is the matter down there, Messrs. Riordan and Dawson ? Chester Complains of a probable de ficiency of thirty-five hundred dollars in the amount necessary to pay the Court expenses of that connty. The Michigan immigrants ia Newber ry connty are delighed with the coun try and the people, and have written their friends and acquaintances to come to Carolina. Dr. Meynardie says that Bishop Wightmau is to preside at his District Conference in Batesbnrg, South Caro lina, embracing the second Snnday in August next JVillis Caldwell, confined in jail in Chester to await sentence for grand lar ceny—stealing cotton from Major E. M. Mills—made his escape last Friday morn ing, and is still at large. The store of Mr. W. L. Andrews, at Chappells, was broken into recently and two hundred dollars in goods and mon ey stolen. Mr. W. B. Smith, of the same place, had his meat house robbed. The Chester Reporter says of the re cent session of Chester Court, that no term has been looked forward to with greater expectiency, or its results receiv ed with greater disappointment. Severe, but jnst. The Camden Journal says that the county tax of Kershaw county is $25,000, and that on Saturday last Messrs. Baum Bros., of that place, paid for themselves and their cus'tomers one-twelfth of the whole amount. J. P. O’Neil, an estimable yonng man of Blackville was killed a few days since by W. R. Kelly. The jury returned a verdict of accidental death, but the evi dence discloses gross carelessness on the part of Kelly. Tho Presbytery of Sooth Carolina commenced its regnlar semi-annual ses sion Wednesday, the sth, at Anderson. The meeting was opened at night with a sermon from the late Moderater, Rev. T. C. Ligon, of Newberry. Died in South Carolina: James H. Parks, Samuel G. Williams and Dr. E. B. Fergurson, of Lanrens; John F. O’Neill, of Charleston; Joseph R. Free man and J. B. Clayton, of Pickens; T. M. Cook, County Auditor, of Marboro. The municipal election in Colombia resulted as follows : Agnew, 876; Stan ley, 853; Ensor, 356; Geiger, 158—Ag new’s plurality, 23 votes. Agnew is a Republican. The Council consists of seven whites ond five negroes. The Lord only knows their politics. The dwelling of Mr. Rodgers, in An derson county, eight miles from Green ville, was burned down, and his mother in-law, Mrs. Durham, was consumed in the fire. She was feeble in health, and was the only person in the house when fire broke out. A difficulty occurred on Friday in Union, between Mr. Howard and Mr. Brown, both photographers, in which the latter was thrown down a stairway eight steps, and was knocked senseless, in which condition he remained three days. He is now improving, A stabbing affray took place last week near Gaddy’s Mill, Marion, between H. Bird and K. Harrelson, in whioh the latter waa mortally wounded. They were working on a turpentine farm, and had indulged too freely in “blue ruin,” hence the difficulty. Harrelson ia dead. Mr. David Utley, President of Fort Stanwix Bank, Rome, N. Y., a comfort able millionaire, in oompany with the Hon. Jacob Hornbrook, of Wheeling, West Virginia, alsoa large moneyed man, largely interested in steamboats, and B. I. Boone, Esq., Judge of Pro bate, Columbia, paid Newberry a visit last week. Nero Patton, Colored, died at Dr. A. T. Wideman’s, at Abbeville, on Tuesday morning. He was born in Africa and came to this country about eighty-five years ago. He was one hundred years old and a first rate man, of good habits and unquestioned honesty. For forty years he was a member of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church at Long Cane. The Sumter County Democratic Club met on Monday, and elected as delegates to the State Convention T. B. Fraser, J. S. Richardson, J. H. Earle, E. W. Moise, and Samuel B. Earle, white; and Matt Brooks, London Sumter and Robert Ross, colored. Stirring speeches were made by T. B. Fraser, chairman, J. S. Richardson, and E. W. Moise. A recent issue of the New York Sun has the following: “J. L. Coleman, Mrs. John Seal, Mrs. Frank Arnold and others have just discovered a land grant to Benjamin Walter, a relative, for 72,000 acres of laud in Charleston, Abbe ville aud Greenville counties, S. C., dated in 1784, and renewed in Charles ton in 1851. As lawyers are at work upon the claim, there is already much consternatiou among the property hold ers in that region.” Mr. John B. Palmer, President of the Southern Security Company, Mr, W. T. Walters and Mr. B. F. Newcomer, of Baltimore, Mr. R. R. Bridgers, Presi dent of the Wilmington and Weldon, and Weldon and Wilmington, Columbia and Augusta Railroads, and Mr. H. B. Plant, of New York, were in Charleston on Saturday, and have been in frequent consultation since. They represent the Southern Security Company, and it is supposed that they are looking after the Ashley River Railroad. Charleston Aews and Courier: Judge Carpenter arrived in the city on Satur day. Honest John Patterson, United States Senator, had arrived several days before. Patterson, Bowen and Worth ington had a caucus at Bowen’s house on Friday night. Monday Jndge Car penter, Bowen, Worthington and Honest John had a caucus at Judge Carpenter’s room at the Charleston Hotel. Patting this and that together, it looks very much like things were being fixed np for the coming campaign. About the first week in February a sou of Mr. Hogg, of Barnwell, was shot iu the neck, the ball cutting the juglar vein, and bruising the carotid artery about the point where it separates into the external and internal carotid arteries. This eansed an aneurism as large as a hen’s egg. Three weeks after the acci dent, Dr. Todd, a skillfnl surgeon, tied the common carotid artery about three or four inches above tbe heart. No com plications have yet arisen, and the ope ration appears' to have been a perfect success. On Snnday evening of last week, two colored women, who lived in the same house, on the plantation of D. W. Oli ver, Si-., in Horry, one woman having two small children and the other woman one child, after building a large fire, left the children in, and securely fasten ing the door from the outside, went off. In a short time a noise was heard in the direction of the house where the children were, and the honse was dis covered on fire. The children were burned into ashes, a small piece of one of them, about as large as a man’s hand, being the only trace of them that could be found. The trial of Lloyd, School Commis sioner of Chester county, came off Sat urday before before Colonel F. W. McMaster, appointed Judge by the Gov ernor. Judge McMaster, after hearing argument in the case, instrnoted the jury to find a verdict of not guilty. The jury retired and remained out twenty minutes, and returned a verdict of guilty; whereupon Judge McMaster or dered the verdict to be set aside, and further, upon his own motion, ordered that the indictment be not. prossed, He decided that it was no offense, under the law, for a School Commissioner to buy teachers’ pay certificates issued by his predecessor in office. The monument to be erected by the Palmetto Gnard, of Charleston, on the centennial of the battle of Fort Moultrie, will occnpy the site upon which the White Point Garden light house stood. The site has been given to the Guards by the General Government, which will, of coarse, save the expense of building and piling a foundation. The light honse was erected before the. war, and was found to be more ornamental than useful. It was taken down by Mr. Yiett, the sculptor, who is to bnild the monu ment. The Palmetto Guard have in con templation the procuring of a sufficient number of bronze cannon, by contribu tion or otherwise, to cast the statute, which is to surmount the monument. Between 4 and 5 o’clock Monday after noon an altercation occurred between J. W. Meadows, white, and Rofas John son, colored, at Sixty-Six Turnout, near Branchville, resulting in the death of the latter. Johnson Bad previously had a difficulty with a sou of Mr. Meadows, in which several blows passed. Mea dows immediately came to Branohville and procured a warrant for the arrest of Rnfns Johnsog for assault and battery. He afterwards returned home and found Johnson there. Some very harsh words ensued, immediately followed by blows. Mr. Meadows afterwards went into his honse and reappeared with his shot-gun and emptied the contents of the same into the head of Johnson, literally blow ing his brains ont.

GOV. SMITH RETIRES. He Writes a Letter Decliainc to Bea Cu4i date far Re-election—His Reasons for Re tiring. [Special Dispatch to the Chronicle and Sentinel ] Atlanta, April B. —Governor Smith declines to be a candidate for re-election. This announcement is made in a letter which he has written to some gentleman in Columbus who addressed him on the subject. He briefly states the reasons that influence his determination in the matter. It had all the time been his purpose to retire from office at the expi ration of his term, bnt the fierce assaults made by some persons tipcn his admin istiation induced him to snspend this determination, as he feared a candidacy mi,;ht bo necessary to his vindication. But as it has been made plainly to ap pear that no injnry has been done by these assaults except to the assailants, he now feels free to retnrn to his origi nal pnrp' se. He therefore declines to be a candidate for renomination. He returns his heartfelt thanks to the peo ple of Georgia for the confidence they have reposed in him and for the support which they have rendered his adminis tration, and congratulates them upon the present prosperous condition ot the State. The letter appears in full iu the Constitution to-morrow. Local and Business Notices.
