Fiendish Attempt.

We copythc following, says the Caro-
Haan, frolpthe Sun ter sIIdtchmen. We
were informed oftho incident byGoy. Gist,
when he passed through Columbia, but
having been specially requested to make
no mentioa of it, did not give it publicity.
As. it has now appeared in print, we feel no
hesitation in COPYING it. The facts, as
given to tho Wt,aamdR, arc substantially
correct, The ball came very near striking
Gen. S. r. Gist:
DAsTARDLY ACr.-A worthy citizen
of our town has placed us in possession OF
the particulars of a most ficndsh act, per-
pctratod by some demon in human form, as
the night train, from Charleston was lcav-
ing on Tuesday last. Our informant was
upon the train. When about Il mile and a
half or two miles from the city, the train
moving rapidly, the passengers in one of
the coaches were startled by what, at the
moment, seemed to be an explosion some
supposing it TO have been caused by the
bursting of one of the lamps. n momcn-
tary examination, however, satis6edall pres
ent that ball had been fred into the car
from some instrument of death, in the
hands of some one outside. "A portion of
the sash on glass frame was shiyered and
torn away, and the glass broken and scat
tered around. Seated in this car, and
within a dangerous distance of where the
bali entered, WAS his sExccllcncy, Gov. Gist.
Our informant states that the. Governor ex.
pressed suspicious in regard to the design
of the cowmrdly assassination such he
must have been, the circumstances all con-
sidercd.) He thought it possible that the
ball had been aimed at himself. We can
scarcely get our consent, however, to so
startling and monstlous a conclusion, not.
withstanding the facts favor il. The ball
entered ut the degree of height to strike
about the breast of one seated in the car
1t passed through and struck the opposite
wall of the coach. 1t would seem almost
miraculous under the circumstances, and in
any event, that no one was injured. If
tho intent was personal, the act involved
imminent peril to others in the immediate
vicinity, and augurs disregard for human
life that could but possess the heart of the
vericst villain" Il.

Fatal Railroad Accident.

a fatal accident occurred on the Grccnvillo
and Columbia Railroad on Saturday last a
terrific hurricane swept over that portion of
the road near Helena on the evening prcvi-
Gus, which blew down the bridge over Bush
river. The freight train left Helena without
knowledge of the disaster, which resulted
in the precipitation of the engine and box
cars into the river, height of fifty feet. The
Engincor, Mr.. MEREDITH, was wounded the
conductor, Mr.. BRAzEALE, received slight in
juries; the two firemen, WILSON and PooR,
were crushed beneath the cars and Instantly
killed. Beisldcs this, the train and freight
are total loss.
The hurricane. according to statement
made by Judge ONEALL, was terrible in its
offects-tearing up by the roots and twisting
off the tops of large trees.
The passenger trains on the road will be
continued regularly, but freight will not bc
carried until the bridge is rebuilt.

The South Carolina Conference.

a friend has kindly placed at our disposal
copy of the minutes of tho last South Caro-
lima Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South; from which We CLEAN some
facts of general interest:
The membership of this Conference is 80
los whites, being IN increase of 584 over the
preceding year; blacks, 1920. Tho Mis-
sionary Society of this body has undcr its
control thirty-one stations in its bounds, most
ly for the benefit of the slaves in the low
country. The collections for this purpose is
large, and we notice that, amongst the volun-
tary contributions, sums of $4,000 from q
single source. The publishing house of the
Book and Tract Society is in Aourishng
condition /; for, after deducting all liabilities,
the sum Of 100000 remains. The Confer
cnce has, undor its supervision, five coilegi-
ate institutions, namely: WofFord College.
Cokcsbury Institute, SpNrtanburg Female
College, Davenport Female College, and Co
lumbn Female College.
Notwithstanding the repeated calls for
money made by the preachers of this demon.
ination, comparatively speaking but little of
it finds its way into their pockets The min
u!es show the disposition made fit, to which
wo invite the attention of croakers. 1t is la
mentable that our clcrgymon arc so poorly
paid, and we believe the remark is applica-
bic not only to the preachers of this, but also
of the other orthodox denominations.

Gen. Harrison,s Sneeoh.

We have devoted tho first page of our pa
per to-day to the speech delivered by Cen
JAMES w, HARRISON, of Anderson, before the
Legislature, at its recent session, in favor of
the bill for the relief of the Blue Ridge Rail
road. The history of the enterprise is cor
rectly given, and the argument in favor of
the measure liberal, logical, and character.
lied by ability. Every fact connected with
this project, is so fully and lucidly given by
Gen II. in this admirable speech, that com
mcnt is altogether unnecessary. 1t only re-
mains for MS, therefore, to invite the attention
of our readers to it, which we do with pleas.

From Washington.

Congress adjourned on yesterday. The
last days of the session were taken up in per-
tectinS the appropriation bills. The bill in
creasinS the rates of postage is important
and has doubtless become law.
The President has vetoed tho act donating
public lands to the several States and terri
tories which may hereafter provide colleges
for the benefit of agriculture and the me-
chanic arts. His reasons therefor are given
at length, and arc highly satisfactory.
The Homestead bill, which sauanders the
public demain most shamefully, has been de-
teated in the Senate by the casting vote of
the Vice President, Mr.. BRAcKENRIDGE.-
Thlsa act alone entities him to the lasting gra-
titudc of the country.
