The REPoRTED MURDER IN EDoEr1ELp.-Wc
have taken sonic pains to inquro from the proper
authority, and have also had the pleasure OF sec
ing General M. G. BUTLER: and are glad 10 say
that the report published in tho Augusta Consitu-
taonaii Of the execution Of two Uutcd States sol
diers by posse CT citizens In EdScfcld District is
entirely without foundatioh. In times like these
We think that papers out of t., State, specially
Southern papers, ought to:bo very careful not to
give circulation to such rurnors, which arc gadl;
reproduced by the Northcrn. press. while the cor
rection is conveniently overlooked.
| TIE GAzETTE.-We have: been favored with q
copy of new weekly papcrof this name, publish
ed in this city, Messrs. CAvLF1ELD & EonD, pro-
prietors It is an eight page paper with four page
| supplement, and presents, therefore, q large
! amount Of reading matter. From the prospectus
we see that tho Gazette is to re an Irish and
Roman Catholic organ, neutral in politics. The
first number is well filed, and full Of promise tt
| has a long and interesting letter from, Dublin
| which tells of the Fenian trials now in progress
there; "a letter from Paris giving nm account Of the
exposition, stories. poetry, and copious extracts
| from Irish papers, giving the latest news in all
| parts OF that Island. The Gazette is woll printed,
| and we sincerely wish it SUCCESS and prosperity
Charleston in oldcn times had tho Catholic 1tisce2-
iany, and we doubt not its friends, and many he
sides, will come forward to the Support of tho
Gazeue.

day night, at tho Hibornan Hall. We were there
for a few minutes, and saw some eight or ten
scenes, representing Dublin, its Custom House

the Castle, Record Tower, Royal Exchange, Trini-
ty College, tho old Parliament House. DOW the
Bank of Ireland, and St Patrick's Cathedral.
The second section giving the Tour of Wicklow,
we did not want to see. s # #@E
Z Ihe scenery, rs fnr as VIC can judge, is pretty
good, md the demonstrations coponsly interlard-
cd with Hibernian anecdotes, told in the richest
thickest brogue. number of Irish ballads are
introduced, sung y, Miss MARY DALToS, Miss T.
MxoEvoY, and the celebrated Irish comic vocal
ist, Mr.. CHARLES MAcEvoT, all OF whom arc good
performers. Our Fenian friends should go BY all
means, as the Professor, who sdoos'' the exhibi-
ton, exhibits decided Fonian procivitics at every
foot of canvas. But this really cannot surprise u.s.
We scarcely know how the departed glories of Ire
land can Ee spoken Of in othor than tones Of re-
gret, and surely the patriotic son Of Erin may be
pardoned a heartfelt wish TINT his country may be
restored to her pristine lame
