We do not know what evidence there is against
these parties, but we understand that it is
sufficient for their conviction. In addition to
the reward Of $500 offered by Governor Scott
for the arrest ard conviction OF the Greenvile
incendiares, our city council have offered 5000,
making together the snug little sum Of $500,
to which the arrestlng parties will be entitled
should they succeed In conviction"

A very successful and nice surgical opera
ton was performed few days since in Con-
wayboro', by Drs. Harrell and Norton. A slug
of lead (''Minnie ball, so called) was extracted
from the left shoulder of Mr.. w. H. Elliott
This ball was lodged in his shoulder in 1852
whilst serving In the ranks of the 26th S. G..
regiment; it entered at the claws (collar-bone,)
breaking the bone to atoms; Mr.. E. being a
large. muscular man, it only made Its way half
through the scapula shoulder blade,) spread
ing over and under the spine of that bone, and
completely bedding itself on both sides; when
fully exposed by the use of the knife, all the
strength Of man, using denial forceps upon
it, could not dislodTe il. Mr.. Elliott was under
the influence of chorotorm for two hours; 1t
was the fourth effort to reach with the knife;
the third effort was made in Charleston in 1865,
but this time (the fourth) the unmerciful
kniYcrs appeared to be intent on taking it
even ut the sacrifice OF the bone to which 1t
was so firmly braided. Mr.. Elliott was carried
home in three days alter the operation, and
we learn Is now doing well.
