A big row occurred at Gadsdcn, near
Columbia, last Saturday, between the
black and Ehite radicals, in which col
ored man named Wash Bynum was
killed, and from thirty to one hundred
others wounded. One of Gov. SCOTS
militia companies was on parade which
accounts for the ath-dealing :mpe-
ments. 1t appears that the meeting tcok
place to appoint delegates to the Radical
Nominating Convention, when they pow
vowed among themselves, and Epstein,
(white), called Nash, (bIack). a ID liar,
whercupon the latter fsticulIcd tie for
mer OF the platform, when the melee be-
came general between bayonets and
fence rails. 1t is said that Judge Wigg,
Senator Nash, Representative Thomp.
SON and other prominent office holders
and seekers were present but made the
best leg time on record from the scene
Of danger.
Latcr-Epstein says that Nash applied
the term liar to him, at the same time
dealing q blow, and further added injury
to insult by ordering the mclish to bay
onet his friends, and that he can furnish
further proof of Nash's irregularities.
Not hard to do with any Of them. W.
HutSon Wigg, in letter Of explanation
to Guardian, derics having fed inglo-
riously, but that he was moving of with
dignity Just before the battle commenced,
and Immediately rc:urncd to throw oil
on the troubled waters Of radicaiisn:, and
that he happily succeeded in measure.
What kind Of measure we don't know.
lie states also that the man reported as
having gone where the Hocdbinc twineth,
did not get there, ard is still kicking
against the pricks, poor fellow.

efFectiFe discourse in the Methodist Church.
THE FEMALE AcADEMY.-Thish houriShinS
! and excellent School, under the meritorious
direction Of Prof. Pifer, and Miss Fannie
Leavell, as Assistant, closed its class rooms
and entered upon its Summer vacation on
! Thursday last It was our pleasure to listen for
short time to some of the recitationS, and
we are pleased to say that what we saw and
heard was quite satisfactory, and although
the young ladies were not expecting visitors,
and were III consequence somewhat embar-
rassed, yet they sustained their parts with
credit, not only to themselves, but to their
prcccptors, who arc entitled to tie highest
considerations The School closed with full
classes and will resume its exercises, VIC feel
confident, with IS large if not Z greater
number.
4 pleasant episode as termination, and
one which the young ladies will dwell upon
with delight, was the picnic Of Friday, and
which was given on Col Fairs place in a
shady grove, through which rippled 4
little sparkling Stream, fed by 9 spring
which furnished the party with cool water
right to hand, and without the trouble of go
ing far for it. The day was spent as is usual
on such occasions; the young folks scatter
ilfs as fancy prompted, INDUCED in innocent
froIics, while the sedate and mature selected
the largest rocks and biggest roots and seated
themselves for comfortable and harmless Cos
sip, at the same time keeping an eycon their
baskets. Many INDUCED in dreams of din>
ner and wondered what would be revealed,
be enough, and became much agitated as
clock approached, ,and the baskets were not
yet opened. We rejoice to state, however,
that no such dreadful calamity occurred,
that the table groaned, that it was ac-
tually too small to contain the good things.
that great difficulties presented themselves to
the minds Of the So1d mothers, ,grandmothcrs
and aunts as to the dispGs:lof the provisions,
and that all being finally arranged, and the
onslaught made, it was found that there was
more than enough and to spare, and the
fragments left was a wonder to the natives.
All credit to the mothers, grandmothcrs and
aunts of Newberry. When they take an affair
of this kind in hand there is no such word
as fail; long may they live to ice cakes, kill
fried chickens, boil hams, bake mutton ribs,
md put up lemon custards. ETC.; they are the
sugar o. the earth-thc ladies, we mean. 1t
was not our intcntion to give lengthy ac-
count Of this pleasantly spent mid>summer's
day, nor will we, therefore it is only added
that the whole affair was much cn;"Ted by
young and old, and that the party did rot
break up until towards evening, and that not
a mite of a thing occurred to break the gen.
cral pleasure, except the millions OF rocks
which strewed the ground, and over which
the old folks and babies found it hard to
travel.

moment you educate one of the sex up

her for her proper family position. She

DISTURBANCE N EDGEFIELp. We learn
cd yesterday that a considerable COM
motion was created at Edsciicld c. Il. on
Monday. The facts as we get them arc
that the negroes had assembled in a
building near the residence of Mr.. \. a.

at an exceedingly annoying rate. The
wife Of Mr.. Glover, being i'll, that gen
teman invoked the dancers to be quiet
and orderly in their demonstrations
His request was altogether UNDECIDED.
when he proftsred to pay them $500 if
they would dcsist The latter propo-
$ition seemed only to intensity their ef-
forts to annoy Mr. &. and his family,
who were forced to endure the outrage
Subsequently, Mr.. Glover and Mr.. Charles
Cheathau met couple OF the ringleade1s
in the outrage, and became involved in
difficulty with them, in which the ne
grocs were somewhat punished for the
leading part they had played in the re-
prehcnsiblc ahair. During the progress
Of this collision, the valiant Eichelbcr-
ger, captain Of a negro militia company,
ordered his troops out under arms, in
order to protect the offending negroes.
Sheriff McDevitt, we learn, ordered Eli
