on Sunday evening. The wives OF Patrick Bradley
and John Quinn, 1t appears, got into

hot words they came to heavy blows,
aud finally their worser ~ halves were drawn
into the quarrel, each OF course taking sides with
his respective spouse. The women ceased and
looked on at the men, who fought like wild beasts
gouging each other savagely. Quinn finally got the
mastery over Bradley and threw him violently on
the ground In front Of his tBradley's) house, In
place called Bergen Hill. Quinn then ded. Bradley
never spoke afterwards. A doctor named Stout
was sent for, aud on his arrival the wounded man
was dead On his forehead were two cuts six inches
long but these were not sufficiently serious to

CATION Into the causes leading to the death of
Abram Grant, who was shot on Monday last
at the Miles plantation, in st. James Goose
creek, was continued by the coroner's jury
on Saturday, pursuant to adjournment, and
concluded. Their verdict was that Grant had
come to his death by being accidentally shot
by s. C. Brown. The statement offs. O. Wig
gins, the companion OF Brown, was confirmed
In every respect, and fortunately by the col
ored men who were working In the field. 1t
was also shown that the riot and conmotion
which succeeded the accident was caused
by the hands from a neighboring plantation,
and that the colored people on the Miles place
contributed much to the safety of the two
white men by their hrmness. Young Brown
ia q Radical. and q relative OF one of our coun-
ty commissioners. These two circumstances
spoil what might have afforded the materials
for q heavy Ku-Klux tragedy.

have occurred to him that there are one or two
miles of tidal dralnsiin the city, and that some

been made available without forcing upon an
entire community, long suffering and patient
under. many previous yeXatione, another.all-
day interruption to their accustomed transpor.
tation by the street cars.
There ia a tidal drain In Meeting street,
above Calhoun, where. there Is an elevation
towards John street greater than at the Mar
ket, and tidul drain facilities in Calhoun street,
with q plank road for foot racing with two and
q half tons OF steam engine hitched on be-

It was commanded by men OF acknowledged
worth, and in its ranks was found a splendid
representation of the Irish citizens. When
the war broke out the Irish Volunteers went
instantly into active service, and fought
through the terrible struggle with a valor
which covers their pane witt honor. The
gentlemen who purpose reviving the organi-
cation are thoroughly In earnest. They are
determined to make 1t all that its record and
name require.
