Clarke Il Co.'s saw mill, in The Northwest
part of the city, was burned and the flames
were communicated to an adjoining build
i,.g which was used for wintering Forepaugh's
menagerie. The animals escaped into the
street, seriously alarming the people. A large
African lion was caught in the street by
throwing over him d box used for mixing
,nortar. A leopard rushed into house where
were several women and children, but the

OBITUARY.


DEPARTED this life, on Saturday night, the 18th
November 1868, at the residence Of d. R. DURI-
soE, Esq, SALLIE, youngest, daughter of the
late JOHN and FRANCES A. HARRIsoS, of this
District.
She was lady of unusual alniability and love-
illness of character; generous, unscldsh, and OF
great Kindness of heart. The best years of her
life werc spent in ,loepless aud untring devotion
to m aged and afflicted mother; and all who call
TO mind now this holy and pious devotion, can
but think and say She has gone TO receive her
reward. She has departed to be with Christ"
Ono year ngo, this mother was laid in the grave;
and now the devoted daughter is called to join
her in Heaven. In Gods eyes her work upon
Garth wa. finished, and He has garnared her up
among the best and noblest of his kingdom.
But not only as noble and devoted daughter
lid she shine in life; she was likewise nm over
affecionnte and evor.thcughtful sister, truthful
and loving friend. We all feel that good and
gentle woman, model Of o daughter, loving
sister, worthy neighbor, and genuine Chris
tian, has left us. From her early youth she had
been straight forward and answering member
of the Baptist Church. For her, death had NO
terror. She was willing to remain and still bless
her family, or ready to depart and be with Christ
She might truly have expressed the sentiment Of
the apostle "To abide in the flesh is more need
ful for you but to depart and be with Christ is
far better for me-"
On Monday the 18th of Nov, we deposited her
in the grave, attended by the lamentations Of
brothers and sisters, the tears of friends, the
prayers of all, the il-will Of mono. Her life
reaches US not to live for self alone. Her death
tells US there is hereafter, where the good are
rewarded and we quit her with the words the
Divine messenger addressed to Daniel: "But
thou, 20 unto the end and aim there rest, but
rise up to thy lot in due time. Amen."
A FRIEND.
DIsD, Of Consumption, on the 18th October, at
the residence of her father, Mrs. MARY NEAL,
aged 27 year., wife of Mr.. j. NJ. NEAL, Of New
berry District, and daughter Of Mr.. MARK Eth
ZREDGE.
This e.tmable lady has been tuken from US in
the bloom of life, but not without leaving evil
dence of those noble qualities which adorn the
female life. As "a wife che was devoted to her
husband as daughter, she conGded in the
counsel Of her parents, always paying due respect
to their judgment; as q Christian, she exhibited
humility, piety and ms !, 4. the sracss which are
worthy examples Of Z rue christian.
She leaves Huaf Al. Father, Mother, Broth
ers and Sisters, ar many friends to mourn their
loas. They mourn as those who have hope, for
she died expressing willingness to SO atan1f
time and be with Christ. II. B.
