sourH CAnoLIsA Golp.s we learn
from the Atlanta Ga, aIntelligenccr,
that Mr.. Fields passed through that
place 'last'week on his way to the
Dahloncga Mint, hayingiin charge s 19,-
900 worth of gold, from the mine. of
Mr.. VIM Dorne, in Abbeyille and
Edgeicld Districts. THIS amount was
the product oftbe. work of eight hands,
during the month of January.IisD Du-
ring twenty andGa half days intDecem-
her, with the same number of hands,.
the yield was $20,500. The aggre-
gate yield Of gold since the commence
sment of work in the, minc, about.
ten months ago, has been upwards of
100000. The quality of. the gold
from this mineis said to be ,of.a very,
superior order, and the iIntelligencer
learns that Mr. Dorne has some
huge specimens in readiness for, tho
exhibition at the. Worlds Fair
next summer. - Charleston COURIER. #

Young, of this District, under eircuns

character. i5ffEik7 5s z
Nc have not the right, nor the dis.
position, to enter into the "details Of
this case, and from thence to draw, our
conclusions; the true merits of'this uns
fortunate occurrence can only be- OBJ
tanned sthroughla judicial Investigation.

s.a 1t is saidithat on Friday last, about
ten o'clock. Capt. L. w. r. Blair, of
this District, went to, Mrs. Young's,
for the purpose ofsettling difficulty
which had occurred between twot Of
their negroes. Capt. John D. Young,
the son Of Mrs. Young, was called out
by Captain Blair, and III the course Of
the interview, a dispute arose between
them, whereupon blows were Iresorted
TO. In the engagement; a brother of
Captain Youngs became alsotinyolved.
Mrs. Young, it3aPpears, came out of
the house into the yard, and was shot
by anegro, named Hiram, the proper
'tyl Of Captain Blair, who was one Of
the negroes involved in the difficulty.
Mrs. Young, we understand, died I'M
mediately. Ssi I,.s
How the negro came by the gun,
and the full circumstances of the case,
are matters not for our consideration,
but for q legal tribunal to determine.
We therefore forbear note or com,
ment, and can only mingle our regrets
with those of the community on the
occurrence of n circumstance SO heart
rending and appalling. Camden Jour,s

FIRE ON THE RArLRoAD.--Ihe train
of cars which left the Columbia depot
on Sunday morning, loaded with about
300 bales of cotton, stopped for, the
night, from some cause, at Fort Motto,
instead of reaching Branchyille, the
proper place. During the night fire
was communicated to the cars or cot
ton, and both were destroy ed, together
witlithat portion of the track on which
tho train stood. Fortunately it was
the turnout, and not the main road =.
The telegraph! posts were also burnt,
