ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE NEws.l
COLUMBIA, Tuesday, December II.
The Pattersonlans are trying to turn the
tables upon their enemies. Patterson's bail
to-day surrendered him to Trial Justice A. G.
Richmond, the select secretary of the grand
council OF the Independent Order of United
Brethren, who, upon examination. found him
absolutely innocent of all charges whatever.
In fact, the testimony before the trial Justice
was such as to prove him a slngulsrly i'm
maculate gentleman, who had been most un-
kindly prosecuted. He was of course In
stantly discharged from all recognizances,
and now warrants are said to be out for the
arrest OF Ellison and Miller, who, it is said, are
likely % fare worse than Kirk and Hendricks.
All this was excellently we'll played, but the
most earoit move of all was the sending of an
Associated Press message tonight, to be pub
lished tomorrow in all the papers Of the
country, gravely announcing that the senator
elect had INDICATED himself completely from
she bribery charges, &c. 1t remains to be
seen whethether the United States Senate
will be satisfied to seat Mr.. Patterson, nov
that he has been covered with this very thin
coat of whitewash.. PICKET.

BLOODY RoW IN aRANIrEv11IE.
One White Man Killed, and Three Ne
oroes Wounded,

groes Wounded.
A fight occurred In Graniteville last Sunday,
between & number CT whites and negroes, In
which C%leuientlne Gulladge, q white man, was
shot and instantly killed, and three negroes
were wounded. DR.. Jennings q white man,
who was on his horse near the scene at the
culty, received TWO shots through hls coat,
but fortunately neither ball Inflicted any
wound upon his person. His horse was killed
under him by another shot. About twenty
1--WE shots were fred altogether. The negroes
concerned in the affair made their escape.
The difficulty had its origin In 40 event which
occurred some tlme ago. 1t seems that about
TWO. weeks since o party of young men
went to the shop of q oolored shoemaker in
Graniteyille, and spoke to him about
a pair of bools he was making for one
them. The negro said that they Iwere not
finished. One OF the party then picked up an
old boot, and In q playful manner struck the
negro two or three times over the shoulders
with II. The old negro took noofsnce at the
act, but others of his color who saw It finally
persuaded him 10 take out 8 warrant against
the youne, men. The case had not been set
tied up to Sunday, and considerable ill-feel.
Ing had grown up between the young men
and the negroes and white Radicals, who had
persuaded the shoemaker to take out the
warrant. Sunday the same party OF young
men were in Woolly Town, q suburb OF Gran
~lteville, when the negroes commenced hrlng
upon them. The young men returned the
IRE, and The fight lasted for several minutes,
with the result above stated. It Ia said that
Gulledge, who was killed, had nothing TO do
with the difficulty.
