\ SINGULAR Iac1DEsr-A few days
since, AIr, Gideon Haynes, his wife and
little boy went ont to gather some blue
grass seed, and while engaged in gathering
the seed, swarm Of bees aGghted upon
the boy, literally covering him from head
to foot. They hung from his ears, chin
and nose in great punches, and clung In
thick clusters to every part of his body.
Mr.. Haynes, realizing the dangerous sit
uation in which the child. was placed,
commanded him to stand perfectly stlh,
andif possible, not to move a muscle This
the brave little fellow did, until the bees
had all settled. Mr. H. then took q stick,
gently lifted the boys hat from his head
and placed it upon ncighborlng bush,
when the'entire swarm left their extraor,
dinary resting place and took the hat and
bush Strange to relate, the boy received
only one sting, and that was caused by
his scizing, with his teeth, u bee that was
trying to make his way into his mouth.
Ii GOODNESS, presence OF mind and untilnch-
ing nerve in the presence Of danger ent!-
tie one ~ the honors of hero, then this
little boy should certainly be enrolled in
the calcndar.-Randolph (NIo.,) Citizen.

TITO Co,ored Schools.

In oar town arc two colorcd schools,
tasc one easgLt by Rplcrt tircen, at the
school-house in re.r Of Mr.. BRYAN's res
idence, tho other by LaTfepee Cain, at
his own house. The cnte'lte edsdate be
tween these schools is so good, however,
that ON Friday last they united in joint
csa,a1nation, at the locate of Robert
Green. Being politely invited to attend
the same. we Jid SOUS did screra. other
s,tizcns-and found ourselves quite in-
1ensted. The exercises were conducted
an good order and good taste; and as a
proof Of the latter we would mention
that there .yere ca .llis occasion, none OF
those me,aorized speeches, &C., which ON
former occasions liawe eyinccd such q
disposition to inculcate eHnnity between
the races.
AS regards the older scholars, at the
same time that they stood a very fair ex-
animation, we could not help thinking
their advancement and progress since
their last annual examination not sufii-
<iently marked and apparent.
Concerning tho younger scholars, we
gan bestownpon theia unqualified praise.
Their progress and their aptitude seem
cd alike remarkable In respect OF de-
yorment, the whole school'was slnexsc'ep-
tionable.
we believe both Green and Cain to be
bard working. conscientious teachers, but
remesujpring their lack of educational
advantages in early life, they should
themselves sos cease to study, and that
well and diligently, thatthcy may be the
better enabled to satisfactorily discharge
sse duties of their positions. SIS

The Best Cotton Crop in the Cotton
r. States.

Our distinguished fellow-citizen Gen.
NJ, GARY has just returned from
trip to Galveston, Texas, and up the Mis-
sissippi River, in the interest of hisgrand
Land and immigration Scheme, and tells
us.very sincerely and with degree Of
District pride that we were pleased to
note-that the present Cotton Crop of
Edgefield District is equal, and in some
respects superior to any that fell under
his observation in the several States
through which he travelled. This bears
rs out in what we have always contend
ed that Edgefeld District, taking it with
all it's advantages and disadvantages, is
tho garden spot Of America. Well, it
being established through the indisputa-
bic authority Of Gen. GARY that the Cot
ton Crop of Edgcield at this time isthe
finest in the Cotton States, we have but
little hesitation (rclying on the opinion
of others and our own judgment) in pro-
claiming that the Cotton. Crop, taken as
whole. of our wide-awake and, popular
townsnlan, Capt. T. L. SMITH, lying one
mile North of this town, cannotl1e equal
ed in Edgcfield. Wehad hoard so much
concerning Capt. SIS. crop that we felt
hnpelled to take look at it, which we
did a few days back, and found it really
magnificcnt-in the finest growing con-
dition, not sprig of grass visible, the
soil light and mellow, the plants dOer-
aging near waste high over the entire
field, and thickly set with blooms and
squares. Farmer SMITH, with the able
and energetic assistance of his fright
bower George Sinkins, certainly un-
derstands the art of planting and cultiya-
ting cotton. And we cordially congratu-
late the Captain upon the high agricultu-
raj feat achieved, and his splendid pros
pect of so handsome yield of the feecy
staple in the early fall.

A correspondent from Columbia IN
forms the Charleston Ne'es that the ac-
counts of the Treasurer and Auditor of
Edeefeld county are in precious mud
die and that Mr.. Frank Howard, late
restaurant keeper in Charleston, has
been sent from Columbia to investigate
them. Rumor hath it that several cie'7-
cal errors, showing faults in addition to
a large amount, havealready been found.
Friends of the parties, in Columbia, as
sert that the complications are altogether
the result of incompetency on the part of
one or both of the parties to keep ac-
counts, such as are required in so COM
p.icated system of collecting and re-
turning taxes. Others smile incredulous-
ly at any such version of the affair.

Excusable Homicide.

In an affray near Sneedsville, Hancock
county, on the evening of the 18th inst,
one Brewer killed Callahan Goodman, un-
der the following circumstances Brewer
was talking to young lady, when Good
man came up, aecostod him, and wanted a
settlement of a difficulty. Brewer replied
that he had no settlement to make, and
wanted to be let alone. Without further
provocation, Goodman drew a pistol and
shot Brewer through the arm and breast
of his coat, hardly injurihg him. Then
clubbing his weapon, and striking the as
sailed violently on the head, he knocked
him down. As Brewer rose from the fall
he rapidly returned the fire upon his as
sailant, shooting him through the hip,
bowels and head, killing him almost in
stantIy Brewer surrendered himself to
the proper authorities, and was acquitted
at the sitting Of the Circuit Court in
Sneedsville.
The gentleman from whom the above
particulars are derived further informed US
that James l.. Goodman, brother of Cal
lahan, killed one Elijah Johnson, at
Kyle's ford, Hancock county, some two
years ago. He has been running at large
until recently. Last week he was arrested
by the Deputy Sheriff of Hancock county,
and failing to give bail, at the preliminary
examination, in the sum of $4,000, was
committed to Jail to await further trial Is

Personal Description of Haggerty.

OF the Tammany burglary the Tribune
says:
There is curiously grotesque complete
ness about this stupid and bungling crime.
The chief perpetratOr, Haggerty, is one of
that foul fungus-growth which has sprung
up of late from the rank soil of Tammany
corruption. AS he appeared in court, yes
terday, richly and showily dressed, his
fingers and shirt-front blazing with stolen
diamonds, he appeared like visible per-
sonification of the vice and disorder whish
curses our municipal affairs. His wife is a
market woman, he is door-keeper of pub
lie building on a small salary; and yet he
is member of the Americas and Blossom
clubs, the fine flower of our Democratic oil
garchy, and spent the night before his ar
rest drinking and gambling at these luxu-
riOus and extravaganza resorts. 1t is the
weakness of a vulgar despotism that it
must be served by creatures who exagge-
rate its own faults. If q Tweed or Swee-
ny or Hall or Connolly require yilework
to be done, it must be committed to some
such BLACKBOARD as this, who is too false to
be trusted and too stupid to be safe.g So it
happened that while he and Balch had the
whole night and morning to work in, they
went so clumsily about their work that
Waterman and servant girl saw the pa
pers carried off and burned.
Tammany is preparing to send a delega-
ton from this city to the Democratic State
Convention. 1t is said that an attempt is
being made to have selected as delegates
men who, though not Tammany, are not
identified with the anti-Tammany De-
mocracy of the city, and by this means to
assume for their organization claim of
responsibility. tt-.
The Times, commenting on this, says:
at is dodge that has been played before.p
1t declares that if such men as Charles
O'Conor, August Belmont, G. B.. McClel-
Ian, Charles P. DAILY, T.. NJ. Barlow, and
other respected Democrats, by their pres
ence in the Tammany ranks, afford the
thieves an opportunity for such reasoning,
it will be disgrace.

MEETING OF THE BAR.
Resolutions of Respect for Gen. Clantc

A meeting o. the Bar was held yesterday
morning in the United States Court room, to
take action concerning the death of General
Clanton. Hon. T. Nixon Van Dyke was called
to the chair, and w. A. Henderson appointed
secretary. A committee of fourteen was APP
pointed to draft suitable resolutions.
While the committee was absent, Col. Fort,
of Chattanooga, made pretty spirited refer
ence to some destinations in the Press and
Herald as to his connection with the meeting
of Gen. Clanton ana Col. Nelson. A repre-
sentative of that paper disclaimed any intention
to make any reflection upon him.
The committee reported the following resolu-
tions:
Resolved, That Gen. James H Clanton, late of
Montgomery, Alabama, having a few days
since become a member of the Bar of this
Court, to discharge his duty as counsel in an
important law suit pending in this tribunal, we,
fellow members of the same profession, feel it
our duty to take notice of his late sudden and
lamentable decease.
ReSOLUed, That, though our acquaintance with
Gen. Clanton was short in duration, he made a
most favorable impression on his fellow men,
bers Of the Bar and our citizens as an urbane
and heightened gentleman, an able lawyer and
a generous and honorable man.
ReSoLUed, That we deeply lament his late sud-
den decease and most fervently and heartily
condole with his afflicted family and friends on
the said bereavement that has deprived the
one of devoted husband and affectionate father
and the others of kind, estimable and highly
esteemed associate.
Resolved That the Hon. Connolly F. Trigg,
now presiding in the Circuit and District Courts
of the United States at this place, be respect
fully requested to have the proceedings of this
meeting spread upon the minutes of his Courts,
and that copy of the same be sent to the taml-
ly of the deceased.
ReSoLred, That, in further token of the high
respect and esteem in which Gen. Clanton was
held by all who knew him, personally or by
reputation, that Judge Trigg be respectfully re-
quested to adjourn his court for the day.
RESOLVED, That the chairman of this meeting
present these proceedings to the Judge of the
Circuit and District Courts, in open court.
