TROUBLE IN EDGEFIELD.
Two Men Killed at RObinsOn's Cir
cus-A Third Hung by the Negro

Hllltla.
From the Augusta GA Chronicle, Dec. 10
At a late hour last evening we received
intelligence of bloody affrsy at Edge
field Courthouse, South Carolina, which,
if true, reveals a most terrible state of
affairs existing in that place. 4 private
party who arrived here yesterday from
the Courthouse brought information of the
affair. He states that on last Wednesday
John Robinson's circus company arrived
in the village for the purpose of giving
two exhibitions, and that an immense
crowd of white men and negroes haC
come in from the surrounding country to
witness the performances. On Wednesday
night the canvas was crowded, as were al
so the tents in which were the jugglers,
sword -swallowers, and the "great natural
curiOsities' which usually accompany these
caravans, and are denominared "side-
shows"
1t was In one of the side shows that the
row is said to have originated, though in
what manner we were unable to learn.
At all events, pistols were drawn by both
sides and fceely used Before the diff
Guilty could be stopped the scalawag Clerk
of the Superior Court was shot and in
stantly killed, and another white man, IN
known, was so fearfully beaten in the
head with the butt of a revolver by some
of his adversaries that his wounds proved
mortal, and he died during the night.
As if to put the finishing touch to this
carnival Of blood, our same informant
states that on that night the negro militia,
who have been on duty at Edgefeld Court
house for some time past, arrested white
citizen of the county on a charge of being
a Rebel bushwhacker, and in revenge,
they said, for the murder Of negroes by
the whites, gave hun a speedy trial and
executed him by hanging him 10 a tree in
the village.
Whether these alarming reports are true,
or whether the whole thing is nothing but
a cock and bull story originated by some
imaginative genius, we have, as yet, nc
way of asccrtaining. The story appears
almost too monstrOus for belief, and we
should hesitate to publish it were it not
for the extremely unsettled condition OF
affairs in Edgefield county and the belief
which has been entertained for some time
past that bloOdshcd would sooner OF latel
be the result
